Inspirationally Speaking LLC (the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”), takes the privacy of our members and users very seriously. To that end, we have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices, including any information gathered and disseminated on www.inspirationallyspeaking.com (the “Web Site”).
PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
The Company may ask you to provide certain personally identifiable information, which is information that could be used to identify you personally, including your name, address, e-mail telephone numbers, date of birth, credit card number, demographic information, information regarding your interests, or similar information when you submit a registration form on the Web Site (referred to as “Personal Consumer Information”). Providing us with information about yourself is voluntary. You can always choose not to provide certain information; however, you may not be able to take advantage of some of the Web Site’s features. We may use your Personal Consumer Information to provide you with requested information or services, to contact you in connection with a promotion or for other purposes disclosed when you provide your information.
We may use your Personal Consumer Information for internal business purposes, such as to improve the Web Site and our business strategies, or to serve specific content or advertisements to you. If you choose to receive information from the Web Site, we may contact you with information regarding one of our products or that of an affiliate or business partner. We may also contact you regarding any problems or questions we have relating to your use of the Web Site, or, in our discretion, notify you of changes to our Privacy Policy, Terms of Service or other policy or terms that affect you or your use of the Web Site.
If you submit to the Web Site a comment, story, photograph or other content to be published, online, we may publish your name or other personally identifiable information in connection with publishing the content. We will not return any materials, such as photographs once they have been sent to us.
Please note that information submitted to the Web Site via a “contact us,” “help” or other similar e-mail address or form will not necessarily receive a response. We will not use the information provided to these e-mail addresses or forms for marketing purposes unrelated to your request.
NON-PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
When you visit or download information from this Web Site, our web servers may automatically collect web site usage information. Website usage information is non-personally identifying information that describes how our visitors use the Web Site. It can include the number and frequency of visitors to each web page and the length of their stays, browser type, referrer data that identifies the web page visited prior and subsequent to visiting the Web Site, and IP addresses (see below for more information on IP addresses). We also may determine your screen resolution and the technology available in order to serve you the most appropriate version of a web page, e-mail or similar service.
USE OF IP ADDRESS
An internet protocol or IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer or network when you are on the internet. When you request pages from this Web Site, our servers may log your IP address. We may use IP addresses for a number of purposes, such as system administration, to generally determine your computer’s server location, to report aggregate information to our business partners or to audit use of the Web Site.
USE OF COOKIES, TAGS, AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
Web Site’s pages or e-mail messages may contain cookies or similar technologies as they become available. Cookies are information files that the Web Site may place on your computer to provide extended functionality. We may use cookies for a number of purposes, such as tracking usage patterns on the Web Site, measuring the effectiveness of advertising, limiting multiple responses and registrations, facilitating your ability to navigate the Web Site and as part of a verification or screening process. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent by indicating this in the preferences or options menu in your browser. However, it is possible that some parts of this Web Site will not operate correctly if you disable cookies and you may not be able to take advantage of some of this Web Site’s features. You should consult with your browser’s provider/manufacturer if you have any questions regarding disabling cookies.
Our web pages may include advertisements for third parties and their products, and those third-party advertisements may include a cookie served by the third party. We do not have control over the cookies used by third parties and do not have access to whatever information they may collect.
DISCLOSURE OF COLLECTED INFORMATION AND THIRD PARTIES
We may disclose non-personally identifying, aggregated user statistics to third parties. We will not share your Personal Consumer Information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you first affirmatively agree to the disclosure. If you agree to receive communications from a third party, your information will be subject to the third party’s privacy policy. Therefore, if you later decide that you do not want that third party to use your information, you will need to contact the third party directly.
In addition, unless otherwise disclosed in this Privacy Policy or at the time you provide your information, we will only share your Personal Consumer Information with third parties under the following limited circumstances:
Third parties providing services on our behalf: We may employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include, without limitation, hosting and administering the Web Site, fulfilling orders, sending communications on our behalf, analyzing data, and administering promotions. These third parties may have access to the Web Site’s user information, including Personal Consumer Information, in order to perform these functions on our behalf. Please note that if you give out personal information online, on one of our public forums, for example, that information can be collected and used by third parties. Although we strive to protect our users’ privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of information you post in these forums and have no control over how such third parties may use your information. You disclose such information at your own risk.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your information and password. You are responsible for all uses of your registration, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your registration or password.
SURVEYS & CONTESTS
From time-to-time, we may provide you with the opportunity to participate in contests or surveys and, if you choose to participate, we may request that you provide certain personally identifiable information (such as name, shipping address, zip code, age level). Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary, and you may choose whether or not to participate and therefore disclose this personally identifiable information. Your information will be used to notify the winners, award prizes, and monitor or improve our website.
Further, if we use a third party to conduct the surveys and contests, we will not share your personally identifiable information without your prior written notice and choice. The third party will also be prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for any other purpose. We may be liable for the appropriate transfer of personal data to third parties.
Legal Protection: We may transfer and disclose information about our users, including Personal Consumer Information, and may use IP addresses to identify users in cooperation with internet service providers or law enforcement agencies, to comply with a legal obligation, at the request of governmental authorities conducting an investigation, to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing the Web Site and applicable laws, or to protect the legal rights, interests, or safety of the Web Site, our users or others.
