PRIVACY POLICY FOR TECHY KEN
Privacy policy
We respect your
privacy and are committed to protecting it through our compliance with this
privacy policy. This Policy describes the types of information we may collect
from you or that you may provide (“Personal Information”) on the munilabs.org
website (“Website” or “Service”) and any of its related products and services
(collectively, “Services”), and our practices for collecting, using,
maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that Personal Information. It also
describes the choices available to you regarding our use of your Personal
Information and how you can access and update it.
This Policy is a
legally binding agreement between you (“User”, “you” or “your”) and Techy Ken
(“Techy Ken”, “we”, “us” or “our”). If you are entering into this Policy on
behalf of a business or other legal entity, you represent that you have the
authority to bind such entity to this Policy, in which case the terms “User”,
“you” or “your” shall refer to such entity. If you do not have such authority,
or if you do not agree with the terms of this Policy, you must not accept this
Policy and may not access and use the Website and Services. By accessing and
using the Website and Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood,
and agree to be bound by the terms of this Policy. This Policy does not apply
to the practices of companies that we do not own or control, or to individuals
that we do not employ or manage.
Collection of personal information
You can access and
use the Website and Services without telling us who you are or revealing any
information by which someone could identify you as a specific, identifiable
individual. If, however, you wish to use some of the features offered on the
Website, you may be asked to provide certain Personal Information (for example,
your name and e-mail address).
We receive and
store any information you knowingly provide to us when you create an account,
publish content, or fill any forms on the Website. When required, this
information may include the following:
· Account details (such as
user name, unique user ID, password, etc)
· Contact information (such
as email address, phone number, etc)
You can choose not
to provide us with your Personal Information, but then you may not be able to
take advantage of some of the features on the Website. Users who are uncertain
about what information is mandatory are welcome to contact us.
Privacy of children
We do not
knowingly collect any Personal Information from children under the age of 13.
If you are under the age of 13, please do not submit any Personal Information
through the Website and Services. If you have reason to believe that a child
under the age of 13 has provided Personal Information to us through the Website
and Services, please contact us to request that we delete that child’s Personal
Information from our Services.
We encourage
parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s Internet usage and to
help enforce this Policy by instructing their children never to provide
Personal Information through the Website and Services without their permission.
We also ask that all parents and legal guardians overseeing the care of
children take the necessary precautions to ensure that their children are
instructed to never give out Personal Information when online without their
permission.
Use and
processing of collected information
We act as a data
controller and a data processor when handling Personal Information, unless we
have entered into a data processing agreement with you in which case you would
be the data controller and we would be the data processor.
Our role may also
differ depending on the specific situation involving Personal Information. We
act in the capacity of a data controller when we ask you to submit your
Personal Information that is necessary to ensure your access and use of the
Website and Services. In such instances, we are a data controller because we
determine the purposes and means of the processing of Personal Information.
We act in the
capacity of a data processor in situations when you submit Personal Information
through the Website and Services. We do not own, control, or make decisions
about the submitted Personal Information, and such Personal Information is
processed only in accordance with your instructions. In such instances, the
User providing Personal Information acts as a data controller.
In order to make
the Website and Services available to you, or to meet a legal obligation, we
may need to collect and use certain Personal Information. If you do not provide
the information that we request, we may not be able to provide you with the
requested products or services. Any of the information we collect from you may
be used for the following purposes:
·
Respond to inquiries and
offer support
·
Request user feedback
·
Improve user experience
·
Protect from abuse and
malicious users
·
Respond to legal requests
and prevent harm
·
Run and operate the
Website and Services
Processing your
Personal Information depends on how you interact with the Website and Services,
where you are located in the world and if one of the following applies:
i. you have given your
consent for one or more specific purposes;
ii. provision of information
is necessary for the performance of this Policy with you and/or for any
pre-contractual obligations thereof;
iii. processing is necessary
for compliance with a legal obligation to which you are subject;
iv. processing is related to
a task that is carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of
official authority vested in us;
v. processing is necessary
for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party.
We may also combine or aggregate some of your Personal Information in order to
better serve you and to improve and update our Website and Services.
Note that under
some legislations we may be allowed to process information until you object to
such processing by opting out, without having to rely on consent or any other
of the legal bases. In any case, we will be happy to clarify the specific legal
basis that applies to the processing, and in particular whether the provision
of Personal Information is a statutory or contractual requirement, or a requirement
necessary to enter into a contract.
Managing information
You are able to
delete certain Personal Information we have about you. The Personal Information
you can delete may change as the Website and Services change. When you delete
Personal Information, however, we may maintain a copy of the unrevised Personal
Information in our records for the duration necessary to comply with our
obligations to our affiliates and partners, and for the purposes described
below. If you would like to delete your Personal Information or permanently
delete your account, you can do so on the settings page of your account on the
Website.
Disclosure of information
Depending on the
requested Services or as necessary to complete any transaction or provide any
Service you have requested, we may share your information with our affiliates,
contracted companies, and service providers (collectively, “Service Providers”)
we rely upon to assist in the operation of the Website and Services available
to you and whose privacy policies are consistent with ours or who agree to
abide by our policies with respect to Personal Information. We will not share
any personally identifiable information with third parties and will not share
any information with unaffiliated third parties.
Service Providers
are not authorized to use or disclose your information except as necessary to
perform services on our behalf or comply with legal requirements. Service
Providers are given the information they need only in order to perform their
designated functions, and we do not authorize them to use or disclose any of
the provided information for their own marketing or other purposes.
Retention
of information
We will retain and
use your Personal Information for the period necessary to comply with our legal
obligations, as long as your user account remains active, to enforce our
Policy, resolve disputes, and unless a longer retention period is required or
permitted by law.
We may use any
aggregated data derived from or incorporating your Personal Information after
you update or delete it, but not in a manner that would identify you
personally. Once the retention period expires, Personal Information shall be
deleted. Therefore, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to
rectification, and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after the
expiration of the retention period.
Cookies
Our Website and
Services use “cookies” to help personalize your online experience. A cookie is
a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies
cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are
uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain
that issued the cookie to you.
We may use cookies
to collect, store, and track information for security and personalization, and
for statistical purposes. Please note that you have the ability to accept or
decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies by default, but
you can modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer.
Data analytics
Our Website and
Services may use third-party analytics tools that use cookies, web beacons, or
other similar information-gathering technologies to collect standard internet
activity and usage information. The information gathered is used to compile
statistical reports on User activity such as how often Users visit our Website
and Services, what pages they visit and for how long, etc. We use the
information obtained from these analytics tools to monitor the performance and
improve our Website and Services. We do not use third-party analytics tools to
track or to collect any personally identifiable information of our Users and we
will not associate any information gathered from the statistical reports with
any individual User.
Do Not Track signals
Some browsers
incorporate a Do Not Track feature that signals to websites you visit that you
do not want to have your online activity tracked. Tracking is not the same as
using or collecting information in connection with a website. For these
purposes, tracking refers to collecting personally identifiable information
from consumers who use or visit a website or online service as they move across
different websites over time. The Website and Services do not track its
visitors over time and across third-party websites. However, some third-party
websites may keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you
content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. For a
description of Do Not Track protocols for browsers and mobile devices or to
learn more about the choices available to you, visit internetcookies.com
Email marketing
We offer
electronic newsletters to which you may voluntarily subscribe at any time. We
are committed to keeping your e-mail address confidential and will not disclose
your email address to any third parties except as allowed in the information
use and processing section or for the purposes of utilizing a third-party
provider to send such emails. We will maintain the information sent via e-mail
in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
In compliance with
the CAN-SPAM Act, all e-mails sent from us will clearly state who the e-mail is
from and provide clear information on how to contact the sender. You may choose
to stop receiving our newsletter or marketing emails by following the unsubscribe
instructions included in these emails or by contacting us. However, you will
continue to receive essential transactional emails.
Push notifications
We offer push
notifications to which you may also voluntarily subscribe at any time. To make
sure push notifications reach the correct devices, we rely on a device token
unique to your device which is issued by the operating system of your device.
While it is possible to access a list of device tokens, they will not reveal
your identity, your unique device ID, or your contact information to us. We
will maintain the information sent via e-mail in accordance with applicable
laws and regulations. If, at any time, you wish to stop receiving push
notifications, simply adjust your device settings accordingly.
Links to other resources
The Website and
Services contain links to other resources that are not owned or controlled by
us. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of
such other resources or third parties. We encourage you to be aware when you
leave the Website and Services and to read the privacy statements of each and
every resource that may collect Personal Information.
Information security
We secure
information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure
environment, protected from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We
maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards in an
effort to protect against unauthorized access, use, modification, and
disclosure of Personal Information in our control and custody. However, no data
transmission over the Internet or wireless network can be guaranteed.
Therefore, while
we strive to protect your Personal Information, you acknowledge that
i. there are security and
privacy limitations of the Internet which are beyond our control;
ii. the security, integrity,
and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and the
Website and Services cannot be guaranteed; and
iii. any such information and
data may be viewed or tampered with in transit by a third party, despite best
efforts.
As the security of
Personal Information depends in part on the security of the device you use to
communicate with us and the security you use to protect your credentials,
please take appropriate measures to protect this information.
Data breach
In the event we
become aware that the security of the Website and Services has been compromised
or Users’ Personal Information has been disclosed to unrelated third parties as
a result of external activity, including, but not limited to, security attacks
or fraud, we reserve the right to take reasonably appropriate measures,
including, but not limited to, investigation and reporting, as well as
notification to and cooperation with law enforcement authorities. In the event
of a data breach, we will make reasonable efforts to notify affected
individuals if we believe that there is a reasonable risk of harm to the User
as a result of the breach or if notice is otherwise required by law. When we
do, we will send you an email, mail you a letter.
Changes and amendments
We reserve the
right to modify this Policy or its terms related to the Website and Services at
any time at our discretion. When we do, we will revise the updated date at the
bottom of this page, send you an email to notify you. We may also provide
notice to you in other ways at our discretion, such as through the contact
information you have provided.
An updated version
of this Policy will be effective immediately upon the posting of the revised
Policy unless otherwise specified. Your continued use of the Website and
Services after the effective date of the revised Policy (or such other act
specified at that time) will constitute your consent to those changes. However,
we will not, without your consent, use your Personal Information in a manner
materially different than what was stated at the time your Personal Information
was collected.
