What personally identifiable information does 2e Minds collect from me?
We collect information in several ways. Some personal information is gathered when you register. During registration, we ask for your name, email address, birth date, gender, zip code, occupation, industry and personal interests. The more information you volunteer (and the more accurate it is), the better we are able to customize your experience.
In addition to registration we may ask you for personal information at other times, including (but not limited to) when you make a purchase using our website and/or when you report a problem with our services. If you contact us we may keep a record of that correspondence. We also occasionally ask users to complete surveys that we use for research purposes. Wherever we collect personal information we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy on that page.
What are cookies and how do we use them?
As part of offering and providing customizable and personalized services, we use cookies to store and sometimes track information about you. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. All sites on e2 Minds where you are prompted to login or that are customizable require that you accept cookies. (See “What are my choices regarding collection, use and distribution of my information?” for more information on cookies.)
Generally, we use cookies to:
(1) Remind us of who you are and to access your account information (stored on our computers) in order to deliver to you a better and more personalized service. This cookie is set when you register or “Sign In” and is modified when you “Sign Out” of our services.
(2) Estimate our audience size. Each browser accessing our site is given a unique cookie which is then used to determine the extent of repeat usage, usage by a registered user versus by an unregistered user, and to help target advertisements based on user interests and behavior.
(3) Assist merchants linked to us to track visits to and business at their stores, if applicable, and to process the items in your shopping basket. This information collected by cookies is sometimes called “clickstream” or “click trail” and may also describe which pages you have seen in each merchant’s store.
(4) Measure certain traffic patterns and your visiting patterns in the aggregate. We use this research to understand how our users’ habits are similar or different from one another so that we can make each new experience on our site a better one. We may use this information to better personalize the content, banners, and promotions that you and other users will see on our sites.
How does 2e Minds Inc. use my information?
Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you, the user, with a customized browsing experience. This includes personalization services, interactive communications, online shopping and many other types of services, many of which are completely free to you.
2e Minds does research on our users’ demographics, interests, and behavior based on the information provided to us upon registration, during a promotion, from our server log files or from surveys. We do this to better understand and serve our users. This research is compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis.
Who is collecting information?
When you are using 2e Minds and are asked for personal information, you are sharing that information with us alone, unless it is specifically stated otherwise. For example, some of our services may be offered in conjunction with a partner company. In order to provide this co-branded service to you, it is necessary for us to share your personal information with our partner company.
If data is being collected and/or maintained by any company other than 2e Minds, you will be notified prior to the time of the data collection or transfer. If you do not want your data to be shared, you can choose not to allow the transfer by not using that particular service.
With whom does 2e Minds share my information?
As a general rule, we will not disclose any of your personally identifiable information except when we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith that the law requires it or under the circumstances described below. The following describes some of the ways that your information may be disclosed.
Business Partners & Sponsors:
We may disclose your personal information to business partners or sponsors, but this is specifically described to you prior to data collection or prior to transferring the data. Some or all data collected during a 2e Minds promotion may be shared with a sponsor. If personally identifying data about you will be shared, we will tell you before we collect or transfer the data.
Many promotions offer opportunities to request additional information from sponsors. By requesting more information, you give us permission to transfer your personal information to the sponsor so they can fulfill your request. In many instances, only your email address will be shared. If more information will be shared with the sponsor, you will be notified prior to the transfer.
Merchants:
If you make a purchase from a merchant linked to 2e Minds, the information obtained during your visit to that merchant, and the information you give such as your credit card number and contact information, is provided to the merchants. This is to enable transactions to take place.
Merchants linked to our site have separate privacy and data collection practices. We have no responsibility or liability for these independent policies. For more information regarding the merchant, their store, and their privacy policies, return to that store’s home page and click on their Information link.
From time to time, you may be offered the opportunity to receive materials or special offers from third parties. If you opt-in to receive information from these third parties, 2e Mind will (with your permission) share your name and email address with them.
Third Party Data & Data in the Aggregate:
Under confidentiality agreements, we may match user information with third party data. We use a third party to process email addresses. Please review their privacy agreement here.
Also, 2e Minds discloses aggregated user statistics (for example, 32% of our users are female, etc.) in order to describe our services to prospective partners, advertisers, and other third parties, and for other lawful purposes.
Other:
2e Minds may also disclose account information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Terms and Conditions of Use or may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, other 2e Minds users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. We may disclose or access account information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it and for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain, service, and improve our products and services.
What are my choices regarding collection, use, and distribution of my information?
2e Minds may, from time to time, send you email regarding our products and services. Only 2e Minds (or agents working on our behalf and under confidentiality agreements) will send you these direct mailings and only if you indicated that you do not object to these offers. If you do not want to receive such mailings, simply tell us when you give us your personal information. Or, at any time you can easily edit your 2e Minds Account Information to no longer receive such offers and mailings. You will need your ID and Password in order to access your 2e Minds Account Information.
You also have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set, or to reject all cookies. If you choose to reject all cookies you will be unable to use our services that require registration in order to participate.
We do not sell or rent user information to anyone. We will notify you at the time of data collection or transfer if your data will be shared with a third party and you will always have the option of not permitting the transfer. If you do not wish to allow your data to be shared, you can choose not to use a particular service or not to participate in certain promotions or contests.
What is 2e Mind’s policy on allowing me to update, correct, or delete my personally identifiable information?
You may edit your Account Information at any time by using your 2e Mind’s ID and password. If you have forgotten your password, please request a new password through the link.
For all other problems signing in to 2e Minds, please email info@2eminds.com
How does 2e Minds protect my personal financial information?
Keeping your personal financial information private is vitally important to us.
Knowing that you use certain services or features may help us to offer you better and more relevant content and advertisements. But as with all personally identifiable information, we do not make this available to any third parties without your permission. Please note that there are several places on our site where you can transmit credit card information in order to complete a purchase transaction or for verification purposes. Any time we ask for a credit card number we transmit that credit card number in an encrypted format. We use industry standard, SSL (secure socket layer) encryption.
What security precautions are in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of my information?
Your Account Information is password protected so that you and only you have access to this personal information and you may edit your Account Information by using your user ID and password.
We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. We will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. Also remember to sign out of your account and close your browser window or app when you have finished your work. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe.
As a global company we have international sites and users all over the world. When you provide us your personal information, that information may be sent electronically to servers outside of the country where you originally entered the information, such as to the United States or other countries. In addition, that information may be used, stored and processed outside of the country where you entered that information. Whenever we handle your personal information as described above, regardless of where this occurs, we take steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with the relevant Terms and Conditions of Use and this Privacy Policy.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, 2e Minds cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.
What about children’s privacy?
Naturally, the safety of children is very important to us and we do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 16 and have adopted policies to ensure compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (“COPPA”). 2eMinds.com is a general audience Web site. Children should always ask a parent for permission before sending personal information to anyone online. 2e Minds will not knowingly send any direct email offers to users who indicate they are under the age of 16. In addition, we will delete any information in our database that we know originates from a child under the age of 16. This website is not intended for any children under the age of 16.
We strongly recommend that parents participate in their children’s exploration of the internet and any online services and use their browser’s parental controls to limit the areas of the internet to which their children have access.
Your Email Address & Opt-Out Options
We only collect and hold your email address in order to send information and services you have specifically requested and to notify you of new developments, products, services, trainings, or events. You can unsubscribe at any time. If we send you an email, it will contain an opt-out link which you can click to have your name removed from our e-mail list. If you ever have a problem with your subscription, or wish to be completely removed from our contact list feel free to contact us at info@2eminds.com
What else should I know about my privacy?
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online, for example on message boards, through email, or in chat areas that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.
Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or any account information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you’re online.
