4. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

In Short:We may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.

When you use our Products, we collect personal information and non-personal information (as discussed above) regarding that use.  For example, to improve our Products, we collect how, when, and which parts of the Products or there features you use.  Also, we may use your device’s unique identifier (UDID) or other unique identifiers to assist us in collecting and analyzing this data.

In order to assist us in collecting and storing non-personal information about your use of our website, including when you access our website on your mobile phone, we may employ a variety of technologies, including “Cookies,” local browser storage, and “web beacons,” “pixels,” or “tags.”  A “Cookie” is a small amount of data a website operator, or a third party whose content is embedded in that website, may store in your web browser and that the website operator or, as applicable, the third party, can access when you visit the website.  A Cookie may also refer to web-browser-based storage provided by Adobe’s Flash plugin (a “Flash Cookie”).  A web beacon, pixel or tag is a small, usually-transparent image placed on a web page that allows the operator of that image, which may be the operator of the website you visit or a third party, to read or write a Cookie.

Your operating system and web browser may allow you to erase information stored in Cookies, Flash Cookies, and local browser storage. But if you do so, you may be forced to login to our website again and you may lose some preferences or settings.  You may also be able to set your browser to refuse all website storage or to indicate when it is permitted, but some features of our website may not function properly without it.  We may use Cookies to keep you logged in, save your preferences for our website, and to collect information about how you use our website.

More information about managing Cookies is available at http://www.allaboutcookies.org. Cookie management tools provided by your browser may not affect Flash Cookies.

5. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy policy unless otherwise required by law.

We will only retain your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

Unless we delete your personal information as provided in this privacy policy, when we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing (except as may be necessary for us to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation) until deletion is possible.

6. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.

We have implemented commercially reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we store or process. For example, we utilize Transport Layer Security (TLS) or similar encryption technology when sensitive data is transmitted over the Internet, and use firewalls to help prevent external access into our network. However, please also remember that we cannot guarantee that any data storage method or Internet connection is 100% secure. Although we try to protect your personal information, using or transmitting your personal information to or from any Product is at your own risk. You should only use the Products and transmit information to and from the Products within a secure environment.

We restrict access to personal information in our possession to our employees and service providers who need to know that information in order to operate, develop, improve or support our Products. If we share personal information with service providers, we require that they use reasonable information security measures to safeguard your personal information.

7. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

In Short:  We do not knowingly collect data from or promote our Products to children under 13 years of age.

We do not knowingly solicit data from or promote our Products to children under 13 years of age. By using the Products, you represent that (i) you are at least, 18 or (ii) you are the parent or guardian of a minor that you are providing information about and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Products. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected without the consent of a parent or guardian, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under age 13 or believe that information from a minor has been collected without the consent or a parent or guardian, please contact us at support@HandsFreeHealth.com.

8. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

In Short:  You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time.

You may request access to your personal information by sending an email to support@handsfreehealth.com. We will try to locate and provide you with your personal information and give you the opportunity to correct this data, if it is inaccurate, or to delete it, at your request. But, in either case, we may need to retain it for legal reasons or for legitimate business purposes. You may also update or delete certain personal information from within the Products.  However, we (and you) are not able to control information that you have already shared with other users or made available to third parties through the Products. 

We ask users to identify themselves and the information requested to be accessed, corrected, or removed before processing such requests, and we may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backups), or relate to information that is not associated with your personal information.  In any case, where we provide information access and correction, we perform this service free of charge, except if doing so would require a disproportionate effort. 

Please be aware that if you request us to delete your personal information, you may not be able to continue to use the Products.  Also, even if you request that we delete your personal information, we may need to retain certain information for a limited period of time to satisfy our legal, audit and/or dispute resolution requirements.

You can opt out of receiving e-mails promoting our Products from us by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link in the e-mails.  Please note that it may take up to ten (10) business days for your opt-out request to be processed.  Also, even if you opt out of promotional  e-mails, we may continue to send you certain account-related e-mails, such as notices about your account and confirmations of transactions you have requested.

We may use third-party service providers that collect information for interest-based advertising purposes (advertisements that are tailored to your likely interests, based on categories in which you have shown an interest).  To learn more about these third parties and the choices they offer users, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s choices http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s choices http://www.aboutads.info/choices/. You can learn more about the DAA’s mobile choices program http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices.

9. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Some web browsers include a Do- Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to any mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked when using a Product. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of  this privacy policy.

Additionally, California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine The Light” law, permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, once a year and free of charge, information about categories of personal information (if any) we disclosed to third  parties for direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of all third parties with  which we shared personal information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to us using the contact information provided below.

11. DO WE MAKE UPDATES TO THIS  POLICY?

In Short:  Yes, we will update this policy as necessary to stay compliant with relevant laws or to reflect changes to our operations.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by  an updated “Revised” date and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible.
