Last updated May 20, 2021

 

Rachel Vallozzi Limited Liability Corporation, collectively hereafter referred to as “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our,” takes protecting your personal information and your right to privacy very seriously. If you have any questions or concerns about our policy and/or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us at rachel@rachelvallozzi.com.

 

When you visit our website, https://www.rachelvallozzi.com, and/or generally utilize our services, you are trusting us with your personal information. In this Privacy Policy, we will outline what information we collect, how we use it and what rights you have to that information. By continuing to utilize our services, you are implying that you consent to our use of your personal information as outlined in this Privacy Policy. If you disagree with any portion of this Privacy Policy, please immediately discontinue the use of our services and contact us for further clarification if necessary.

 

This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected through our website and our partner websites, and/or any related services, sales, marketing or events (collectively referred to in this Privacy Policy as "Services").  

 

1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?  

  

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us through the use of our website and partner websites, such as your name, address, contact information, passwords and security data, and payment information, when expressing an interest in obtaining information about us or our products and services, when participating in activities included in our Services or otherwise contacting us.

 

The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us and the Services, the choices you make and the products and features you use. The personal information we collect may include the following:

 

Publicly Available Personal Information. We collect first name, last name, and nickname; email addresses; and other similar data.

 

All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal information.

 

We also may automatically collect certain information when you visit, use or navigate the Services. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, location, information about how and when you use our Services and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our Services, and for our internal analytics and reporting used for marketing and support purposes.

 

2. COOKIES

 

We or our Partners may use cookies in your web browser or utilize tracking pixels to analyze or enhance the use of our Services. These cookies do not collect information from your computer, but may be used to record information that you have submitted to us. One example of our use of cookies is to enable our Site to remember who you are from visit to visit.

 

You can erase and block these cookies using the features available on your web browser. However, should you do this, it is possible that portions of the site may not function properly or at all.

 

We allow third-party advertisers that are presenting ads on our behalf to set and access cookies on your web browser. The advertisers’ use of cookies or tracking pixels is subject to that provider’s own Privacy Policy, not this Privacy Policy.

 

3. PAYMENT PROCESSING

 

We utilize a third-party merchant services payment processor to process your credit card information. We only transmit the information required to complete the transaction, such as credit card number and identifying information for security purposes, to the merchant processor. From time to time, we may share additional information with the merchant processor to better serve you. We make every effort possible on our end that this information is transmitted securely to the merchant processor. However, we cannot control the cyber security of your individual machine. You should always use caution when transmitting sensitive information. We do not recommend using public computers or devices to transmit information to or utilize the Services. We do not accept liability for individual breaches of privacy resulting from your use of non-security devices.

 

4. PARTNER SITES

 

We may navigate you to other Partner sites throughout your use of the Services. If you notice you have been redirected to another site, please be aware that that Partner’s Privacy Policy governs the use of your personal information from that point forward. Our partnership with a Partner does not constitute an acceptance of liability for that Partner’s usage of your information. You should always review the Privacy Policy of any site you visit to ensure your information is being used in a manner that you are agreeable to.

 

5. HOW DO WE USE YOUR INFORMATION? 

 

We process your information for purposes based on legitimate business interests, the fulfillment of our contract with you, compliance with our legal obligations, and/or your consent.

Examples include: payment processing, data analysis, email delivery, hosting services, customer service and marketing efforts. We may allow selected third parties to use tracking technology on the Services, which will enable them to collect data about how you interact with the Services over time.

Unless described in this Policy, we do not share, sell, rent or trade any of your information with third parties for their promotional purposes.

7. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?  

 

We will only keep 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). 

 

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 until deletion is possible.

 

8. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?   

 

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, please also remember that we cannot guarantee that the internet itself is 100% secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services and share personal information within a secure environment.

 

9. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?  

 

We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records.
