- WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU AND WHY
We may collect two types of information: information by which you may be personally identified, such as your name, email address, and telephone number (“Personal Information”), and information that is about you but individually does not identify you (“Non-Personal Information”). We collect this information directly from you when you provide it to us, or automatically as you navigate through the Services. Please note that we do not sell your Personal Information to anyone.
What Personal Information Do We Collect?
– When you use Company’s services. We collect Personal Information such as your name, email address, postal code, billing information and other information provided to Company when you create an account with us. We also acquire your Internet Protocol address (“IP address”) and/or mobile device identification, cookies and related tracking technologies, and website usage details, which certain jurisdictions consider to be Personal Information because this information could be used to identify an individual or device if combined with other identifying information. This information helps us to improve our Services and deliver a better and more personalized service.
– Customer Service Inquiries. We may capture Personal Information when you send us questions or comments regarding the Services and other inquiries. Information collected in this manner will only be used to contact you and/or respond to your inquiry/issue.
– Payment Information. All transactions are facilitated by a third-party payment processor. We do not collect or store financial or billing information and we are not responsible for the collection or storage of such information by third-parties.
– Third-Parties. We may also obtain Personal Information about you through third-party sources such as public databases, social media platforms and or affiliates.
– Careers and Internship Opportunities. When you submit your resume via email, we may keep a record of your contact information and resume. We may use such information to respond to you.
– Press and Media. We may capture your Personal Information when you contact us about press inquiries or opportunities to collaborate with us.
– We do not request on or through the Services other information that is often considered “highly sensitive,” such as other financial account information (e.g., credit report information, bank account numbers), or government-issued identification (e.g., your national ID card, drivers’ license, or passport), although we reserve the right to do so when such information is necessary to verify your billing information.
– We take reasonable precautions to protect the confidentiality and security of your Personal Information by using industry-recognized security safeguards such as site monitoring, secured networks and servers, firewalls and/or encryption. Unfortunately, no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your Personal Information within industry standards, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
What Non-Personal Information Do We Collect?
Some of the information that we acquire cannot identify, distinguish or trace you or your device, even if combined with other identifying information, and some information that could be considered Personal Information when combined with other identifying information is not used in a way that identifies, distinguishes or traces you or your device, but is instead used in an anonymous way, often aggregated with other anonymous information about other users.
If your Personal Information changes, or if you no longer choose to use the Services, you can contact us via email at support@pmclassroom.com to assist you with changes to your account. To the extent your account closes or becomes inactive, we will continue to protect your information as described in this Privacy Policy.
