Children’s Privacy

Digital Personality is committed to protecting the privacy needs of children, and we encourage parents and guardians to take an active role in their children’s online activities and interests. Digital Personality does not intentionally collect personal information from children under the age of 13, and Digital Personality does not target its services to children.  Only persons who are more than 18 years old or who are emancipated minors may use our services.  By accessing our site and our services, you are legally acknowledging that you are over the age of 18 or an emancipated minor.  Otherwise, you have no legal right to access or use the site or the services.

Access to your personal data on Digital Personality’s website may be password-protected, and sensitive data protected. We also periodically monitor our system for possible vulnerabilities and attacks, consistent with industry standards. You should be aware, however, that since the Internet is not a 100% secure environment, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you submit to the site. There’s also no guarantee that information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards. It’s your responsibility to protect the security and integrity of your account details, including your username and password. Please note that emails, instant messaging, and similar means of communication with other Digital Personality website users, if any, are not encrypted, so you should not communicate any confidential information through these means.

Links to Third Party Websites and Services

Digital Personality’s website and services may provide links to third-party websites for the convenience of our users.  If you access those links, you will leave Digital Personality’s website.  Digital Personality does not control these third-party websites and cannot represent that their policies and practices will be consistent with this Privacy Statement.  For example, other websites may collect or use personal information about you in a manner different from that described in this document.  Therefore, you should use other websites with caution, and you do so at your own risk.  We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any website before submitting personal information.

We may receive information when you use your account to log into a third-party site or application in order to recommend tailored content or advertising to you and to improve your user experience on our site and our services. We may provide reports containing aggregated impression information to third parties to measure Internet traffic and usage patterns.

We may allow third-party ad servers or ad networks to serve advertisements on our site and our services. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on the site. These ad-servers automatically capture your IP address and they may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or web beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content.  Digital Personality may provide Personal Information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent. You should note, however, that if you respond to such an advertisement, the advertiser or ad server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach and may use other technological resources to ascertain personal information about you. Digital Personality cannot control the activities of third-party advertisers, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to these activities.  Please review the privacy policies of these advertisers for information as to how they use data they collect.

TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Non-Personal Information

Non-personal information is data about usage and service operation that is not directly associated with a specific personal identity. Digital Personality may use non-personal data that is aggregated for reporting about website usability, performance, and effectiveness of our website.  It may be used to improve the experience, usability, and content of the site and our services.  Digital Personality may automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser or mobile platform, including your location, IP address, browser type, operating information, mobile carrier, device and application IDs, cookie information, and an API you may use. By continuing to use our site or services, you consent to our use of cookies, pixels and local storage and other data collection technologies in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Aggregate Information

Digital Personality may gather aggregate information, which refers to information your computer automatically provides to us and that cannot be tied back to you as a specific individual. Examples include referral data (the websites you visited just before and just after our site), the pages viewed, time spent at our website, and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.  An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access the Internet.  For example, when you request a page from one of our sites, our servers log your IP address to create aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns and for purposes of system administration.  Digital Personality may share non-personally identifying information in the aggregate with third parties, such as the media, industry observers, customers, potential customers or partners.

Log Files and IP Addresses

Every time you access our site or use our services, such as by requesting or downloading a file from the website, Digital Personality may store data about these events and your IP address and host name in a log file.  We may use this information to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use or for other business purposes. When you access or leave the site by clicking on a hyperlink, we receive the URL from the site from which you last visited or the one to which you’re directed. We may receive the IP address of your computer or proxy server used to access the site, your operating system, the type of browser you used, and the type of device and/or operating system you use, your mobile device carrier or your ISP. We also may receive location data passed to us from third-party services or GPS-enabled devices that you have set up in order to customize your experience based on location information.

Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies, including mobile device identifiers, to help us recognize you when you log into our site. By accessing the site or using our services, you are consenting to the placement of cookies and other similar technologies in your browser in accordance with this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use. Cookies are small packets of information that a site’s computer stores on your computer. Digital Personality can then read the cookies whenever you visit our site or use our services. We may use cookies in a number of ways, such as to save your password so you don’t have to re-enter it each time you visit our site, to deliver content or advertising specific to your interests and to track the pages you’ve visited. These cookies allow us to use the information we collect to customize your experience so that your visit to our site is as relevant and as valuable to you as possible. You may modify and control how and when cookies are set through your browser settings. Most browsers offer instructions on how to reset the browser to control or reject cookies in the “Help” section of the toolbar.  If you choose to reject cookies, certain of the functions and conveniences of our site may not work properly, and you may be unable to use those of our services that require registration in order to participate, or you will have to re-register each time you visit our site.  Most browsers offer instructions on how to reset the browser to reject cookies in the “Help” section of the toolbar.  We may link non-personal information from cookies to personally identifiable information without your permission.

Web Beacons

The site also may use web beacons and other technologies, such as pixels and ad tags, to collect non-personal information about your use of our site and the sites of selected partners, affiliates, sponsors or resellers, your use of special promotions or newsletters, and other activities. The information collected by web beacons allows us to statistically monitor how many people are using our site and the sites of selected partners, affiliates, sponsors or resellers; how many people open our emails; and for what purposes these actions are being taken. We do not share personally identifiable information obtained from web beacons with any third-party advertisers, but we may show you sponsored content from our members and affiliates. Our web beacons are not used to track your activity outside of our website or those of our sponsors.  Our website may link non-personal information from web beacons to personally identifiable information without your permission.

Clickstream

The site may allow for the use of clickstream data collection. Clickstream analysis is the process of collecting, analyzing, and reporting aggregate data about which pages visitors visit in what order based on mouse clicks each user makes.  Clickstream analysis is useful for web activity analysis and other functions that help us to understand how you use our site.  We may sell users’ clickstream data to third parties for marketing purposes.

New Technologies

As new technologies emerge, Digital Personality may be able to improve our services or provide you with new ones, which means that Digital Personality may create new ways to collect information on the site and our services.  If we offer a new service or new features to our existing site, for example, these changes may result in our collecting new information in order to improve your user experience.

Location Information

When you use a location-enabled device, we may collect and process information about your actual location, like GPS signals sent by a mobile device.  We also may use various locations to determine location, such as sensor data from your device that may, for example, provide information on nearby Wi-Fi access points and cell towers.

Personal Information

Personal information is information that is associated with your name or personal identity.  Digital Personality uses personal information to better understand your needs and interests and to provide you with better service.  On some of our web pages, you may be able to request information, subscribe to mailing lists, participate in online discussions, collaborate on documents, provide feedback, submit information into registries, register for events, or apply for membership.  The types of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include name, address, phone number, e-mail address, user IDs, passwords, credit card or billing information, product serial numbers and control codes, and account numbers.  Digital Personality may use personal information to provide services that support the activities of our members and their collaboration on our projects.  When accessing our registered and premium content-only web pages, your personal user information may be tracked by Digital Personality in order to ensure authorized access.

Registration

In order to use some features of the Digital Personality website and services, you need to create an account by providing use with at least your name, email address, user name, and a password. We encourage all visitors to register with Digital Personality, although registration is not required, except for access to our premium content areas. The registration forms require users to give us accurate contact information and references that help us better serve you. Your name, address, and email address may be used to send you information about our company, product updates, special offers, and newsletters.  You can choose to provide other information about yourself during the registration process (for example, your gender, location, company affiliation, etc.). We use this additional information to provide you with more customized services, and this information may be viewable by others.  You understand that, by creating an account, Digital Personality and others may be able to identify you by your profile, and you agree to allow Digital Personality to use this information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and our then-current Terms of Use, if any.

On some pages of the site or the services, you may be able to request information, subscribe to mailing lists, participate in online discussions, collaborate on documents, provide feedback, submit information into registries, or register for events. The types of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include name, address, phone number, e-mail address, user IDs, passwords, billing information, or credit card information.

Our order forms securely collect visitor’s contact information and financial information (like your credit card number and other billing information). Contact information on the order form is used for order fulfillment and may be shared with our partners or resellers if that is necessary to fulfill your request. During the purchasing process, you may be given the opportunity to sign up for future e-mailings regarding our products, services, and promotions. You may also be given the option of registering a profile with Digital Personality which would store your name, purchase history, and billing information to make it easier for you to shop and purchase products/services from us in the future. You may opt out of this feature at any time by changing/canceling your profile online.

We may monitor or record any of your telephone conversations, emails, or chats with us for quality control purposes, for purposes of training our employees, and for our own protection.

DATA PROTECTION

This site is intended for use by residents of India  only, and all matters relating to this Site are governed by the laws of India.  Given the international scope of Internet access, your personal information may be visible to persons outside your country of residence, including to persons in countries that your own country’s privacy laws and regulations deem deficient in ensuring an adequate level of protection for such information.  If you are unsure whether this privacy statement is in conflict with applicable local rules, you should not submit your information.  If you are located within Asia, you should note that your information will be transferred to India. Nevertheless, in accordance with local laws implementing the Privacy Directive on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, individuals located in countries outside of India who submit personal information do thereby consent to the general use of such information as provided in this Privacy Policy and to its transfer to and/or storage in India. By utilizing the site and/or directly providing personal information to us, you hereby agree to and acknowledge your understanding of the terms of this Privacy Policy, and consent to have your personal data transferred to and processed in India and/or in other jurisdictions as determined by Digital Personality, notwithstanding your country of origin, or country, state and/or province of residence.  If you do not want your personal information collected and used by Digital Personality, please do not visit our website.
