Privacy policy.
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) explains Kate Mac Interior’s (“Kate Mac Interiors,” also “we,” “our,” and “us”) information practices governing our services, including any of our desktop applications, mobile applications, katemacinteriors.com website, digital content, other products controlled owned or licensed by Kate Mac Interiors, and any other products or services that include a link to this Policy (collectively, the “Products”).
When you access or use any of the Products or websites, or take other actions described below, you agree to the terms of this Policy. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE PRODUCTS.
In the context of this Policy, Kate Mac Interiors acts as a data controller for the information we process, with the exception of information processed solely pursuant to the instruction of your institution, business organisation, or another controller, in which case Kate Mac Interiors acts as a data processor. If you are an institution or business organisation with users under the age of 18 read about Kate Mac Interior’s commitment to the Privacy of Minors, including students.
1. Definitions
• “Information” is Data that falls into three categories: data that you provide directly to us, data that we receive from third-parties, and data that we passively or automatically collect through your use of the Products or websites, such as from your browser or device.
• “Personal Data” is Information that can personally identify you, including but not limited to first name, last name, and contact information.
• “De-identified Data” is data that will have all information that is linked or linkable to you, including personal identifiers (such as name, student identification number, and contact information), irrevocably disassociated, in a manner that would prevent a reasonable person from identifying any party with reasonable certainty. Kate Mac Interiors shall not attempt to re-identify data.
• “Content Owners” are licensors that have rights related to the content that you access through your use of the Products or websites.
• “Distributor” is the academic institution, employer, business organization, training firm, or other entity that directly licensed or provided you with access to Product(s).
2. Information We Collect About You
Kate Mac Interiors collects information from you when you purchase, redeem, download, access or use any content or the Products; register a Product with Kate Mac Interiors; create an account; take notes or participate in assessments in a Product; use collaboration features; submit requests; and access Products, including when you visit any of our websites; as described further below.
a. Information You Provide Directly to Us
Depending on the Products you use, the types of Information we collect includes your name, address, email address, phone number, other contact information, academic institution, payment information collected and used by our third party payment processors such as credit or debit card numbers, information regarding your use of the Products, and user-generated content such as notes, highlights, and responses to assessments; and any other type of Information or Personal Data you submit to us at your discretion.
You can elect not to provide such Information, but, in general, most of the Information we request from you is required in order for us to provide the Products and the lack of such Information will prevent us from doing so. We will collect, use, transfer and disclose this Information as described in this Policy.
b. Information We Receive from Third-Parties
We receive Information from third parties, such as educational institutions, the identity of your business organization or representatives (if you are a corporate customer), third-party authentication services (if you interact with us through third-party sites or services) and the parties with whom we exchange Information as described here.
c. Information That Is Automatically Collected
Purple Leader automatically collects certain Information as you use the Products, make Product purchases and interact with us. We and our service providers (which are third-party companies that work on our behalf), may use a variety of technologies, including cookies and similar tools, to assist in collecting:
• Technical data, such as your domain name, the browser type and language, and operating system you are using, your Internet Protocol (IP) address, country, and city, your device types, mobile device identifier, the date and time of your request, if any, and the device you are using, referring and exit pages and URLs, platform type, landing pages, error logs, and other similar information; and
• Usage data, such as the date and time of your requests, the number of clicks, information you download, which Products you use and how you use them; pages viewed and the order of those pages, the amount of time spent on particular pages, the terms you use in searches on our sites; information from interactive Products, including scores from assessments, engagement during study sessions and overall performance, and records of any contact we have with you by telephone, email or online.
• Kate Mac Interiors may collect Information about you when you visit the Kate Mac Interiors website through the use of “cookies.” Please see our Cookie Policy.
• We may use third-party web analytics services (such as those of Google Analytics) on our Services to collect and analyse usage information through cookies and similar tools; engage in auditing, research, or reporting; assist with fraud prevention; and provide certain features to you. To prevent Google Analytics from using your information for analytics, you may install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
• If you receive an email from us, we may use certain analytics tools, such as clear GIFs to capture data such as when you open our message or click on any links or banners our email contains. This data allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our communications.
We keep your Personal Data for no longer than necessary for the purposes for which it is collected and processed. The length of time for which we retain Personal Data depends on the purposes for which we collect and use it, the instructions of a controller when we act as a processor, and/or our requirements to comply with applicable laws.
