Location and Transfer of Your Personal Information

We use third-party Service Providers, including Plausible, Intercom, Customer.io, Heroku, SendGrid, Postmark, and others. All such Service Providers are contractually bound to keep your personal information secure and confidential and to use it only for the above purposes, consistent with this Privacy Policy.

How Do We Protect Your Information?

Our website is scanned on a regular basis for security holes and known vulnerabilities in order to make your visit to our site as safe as possible, and we implement a variety of security measures when a user submits or accesses their information to maintain the safety of your personal information.

We take appropriate technical measures to keep your personal information confidential and protected against accidental or unlawful destruction or loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access. We use technical safeguards measures, including encryption and backups.

The security of your personal information also depends on the protection of your user account. Please use a unique and strong password, and keep your login credentials secret. Also, be sure to log out after having used our services from a shared computer.

After that, we will erase all your personal information that we have, except when we need to keep such information for a longer period to comply with applicable law or resolve disputes. Following the deletion of your personal information from our database, the related backup data will be deleted, generally within 30 days.

Third-Party Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties. Our service may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third-party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Protecting Your Child's Privacy

Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 18 ('Children'). We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 18. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your Children have provided us with Personal Data, please contact us.

When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13 years old, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from Children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.

CAN-SPAM Act Compliance

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.

To be in accordance with the CAN-SPAM Act, we agree to the following:

• Do not use false or misleading subjects or email addresses.
• Identify the message as an advertisement in some reasonable way.
• Include the physical address of our business or site headquarters.
• Monitor third-party email marketing services for compliance if one is used.
• Honor opt-out/unsubscribe requests quickly.
• Allow users to unsubscribe by using the link at the bottom of each email.
• If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, you can follow the instructions at the bottom of each email.

California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law's reach stretches well beyond California to require any person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared.

For more information, please see CalOPPA.

According to CalOPPA, We Agree to the Following:

• Users can visit our site anonymously.
• Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page or as a minimum, on the first significant page after entering our website.
• Our Privacy Policy link includes the word 'Privacy' and can easily be found on the page specified above. You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes on our Privacy Policy Page.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

From time to time, we may update this Privacy Policy. If we do, we will update the "last updated" section at the top of the Privacy Policy. If we make material changes to this policy, we may notify you on our website, by a blog post, by email, or by any method we determine.

Your continued use of this website or our service and/or continued provision of information to us will be subject to the terms of the then-current Privacy Policy.
