Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy discloses the privacy practices of GET ACQUIRED MARKETPLACE INC. (sometimes referred to in this Privacy Policy as “GetAcquired”, “we”, “us” or “our”), in connection with the GETACQUIRED website and any other application or service offered by GetAcquired from time to time (collectively, the “Service”). We have provided this statement of our Privacy Policy to answer your questions about the types of information that we gather and the ways in which we use and share this information.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By visiting GetAcquired’s website or by using the Service, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy.
1. GENERAL PRINCIPLES
At GetAcquired we are committed to protecting your privacy, and maintain a general policy of openness about how we collect, use and disclose your personal information. We take your privacy seriously and strongly support an individual’s rights to privacy. This Privacy Policy has been established to help GetAcquired users understand our commitment and approach to protecting privacy and personal information.
Besides the User Information directly collected by GetAcquired as described in this Privacy Policy, GetAcquired does not collect personal information itself.
2. SCOPE OF PRIVACY POLICY
This Privacy Policy applies to the GetAcquired website and to the GetAcquired’s Service generally.
3. INFORMATION GetAcquired COLLECTS
3.1 User Information. If you subscribe to use GetAcquired’s Service, we will ask for personal information such as your name, email address, physical address and payment address. We use that information to identify you when you log-in to use our products, for billing purposes, to collect payments, to provide you with account support and to keep you informed about your account and our products, if you have requested to receive such information.
3.2 Website Traffic. In addition, GetAcquired collects and analyzes traffic on our website by keeping track of the IP addresses of our visitors and by collecting log file information. Your IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to the computer that you are using by your Internet service provider (ISP) or by another organization. An IP address, by itself, cannot identify you personally. However, when combined with other information, your IP address can be used to identify the computer you are using. In addition, GetAcquired may use your IP address to estimate your geographic location. We discuss log file information further in a later paragraph of this Section 3.
3.3 Cookies. GetAcquired uses tracking technology called “cookies” on our website and to deliver our Service. By visiting our website or using GetAcquired’s Service you agree to the use of cookies in your internet browser and HTML-based emails. Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website, in order to track use of the site and to improve your user experience. GetAcquired uses “session cookies”, which make the user experience more efficient by storing certain information from your current visit on your device, such as log-in information. These session cookies help GetAcquired to recognize your log-in session so you can move easily within our website and access GetAcquired’s Service.
3.4 Log File Information. Your web browser automatically sends information to every website you visit, including ours. For example, our server logs may receive and record information such as the pages you access on our website, referring URLs, your browser type, your operating system, the date and time of your visit, and the duration of your visit to each page.
3.5 User Agent Strings. Log file information may also include a user agent string, a series of characters automatically sent with your Internet requests that provide information necessary for smooth Internet communications such as the operating system and browser you used. Similar to an IP address, a user agent string, by itself, does not identify you personally. However, when combined with other information, a user agent string might be used to identify the computer originating a message.
Whenever GetAcquired collects personal information directly from individuals, it will provide: (a) notice of such collection; (b) a copy of or link to this Privacy Policy, including a description of how such data will be used and the rights of individuals whose information is being collected.
4. HOW GETACQUIRED USES INFORMATION
As stated above, GetAcquired may use personal information such as your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, or other contact information we obtain from you for the purposes of providing, enhancing, or improving GetAcquired’s Service.
GetAcquired maintains contact lists (with email addresses and other information) to allow us to communicate with our clients or people who have expressed an interest in GetAcquired’s Service. We may contact you to confirm your purchases or respond to requests that you make, notify you about our products, for marketing purposes, or to otherwise inform you of information related to our business or your account with us.
Non-identifying information includes information collected from or about you that does not personally identify you. GetAcquired treats IP addresses, log file information and other related information as non-identifying information, except if applicable law requires us to do otherwise. GetAcquired uses this information to learn about user demographics and user behaviour in order to improve GetAcquired’s Service. Certain jurisdictions, including the European Union, may deem IP addresses and/or unique identifiers, to be personal information. Accordingly, for persons in such jurisdictions, our use of Non-Identifying Information as described in this Privacy Policy, should be assumed to include IP address and unique identifier data.
GetAcquired takes commercially reasonable precautions against possible security breaches of our Service and customer records but due to the nature of the Internet and related electronic communication, this cannot be guaranteed to be completely secure. GetAcquired does not guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur.
5. HOW GETACQUIRED SHARES INFORMATION
We may provide your information to our third party service providers, contractors and business partners, for the purpose of delivering GetAcquired’s Service to you as well as for purposes related to administration of our website and operation, including conducting analytics. When sharing information for the purpose of providing you with our products and services, we will share your personal information only as necessary for the third party working on GetAcquired's behalf to complete its work for us. For example, if you use a credit card to complete a transaction on our website, we may share your personal information and credit card number with a credit card processing company in order to complete your transaction.
We reserve the right to disclose your personal information to appropriate third parties if we are required to do so by law or we believe that such action is necessary in order (a) to comply with legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena, or court order; (b) to protect the company's rights and property; (c) to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, fraud, or situations involving potential threats to the rights, property, or personal safety of any person; or (d) to protect against misuse or unauthorized use of our website or products.
6. YOUR CONTROL OVER YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
You can manually delete cookies, which are normally located in your temporary Internet folder or cookie folder. You can also reset the preferences in your web browser to notify you when you have received a cookie or, alternatively, to refuse to accept cookies. Deleting or blocking cookies may affect the functionality when you access our website or access our products and services that require a log-in.
You can contact us to obtain a copy of your personal information that is held by us. This may be subject to a fee as permitted by applicable law. You can also ask us to correct and, where relevant, erase that information. Note however, that certain information may need to be kept for a period of time where this is necessary for our business purposes or as required or authorized by applicable law. There are some cases where we are prohibited from disclosing your personal information and in such cases, we will provide you with the reasons for that.
7. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
GetAcquired reserves the right to modify or update this Privacy Policy at any time. The most recent version of the Privacy Policy is available at [url]. Please check the Privacy Policy periodically for any updates. Your continued use of GetAcquired’s Service following the posting of any changes to the Privacy Policy will indicate your acceptance of those changes.
