As you navigate through and interact with our Services, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect information that may include personal data. Information collected automatically may include usage details, IP addresses, operating system, and browser type, and information collected through cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies.
We may use these automatic collection technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party sites or other online services (behavioral tracking).
Using automatic collection technologies helps us to improve our Services and to deliver a better and more personalized experience.
The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include:
To the extent any of these automated technologies are considered a personal data sale, targeted advertising, or profiling, under applicable laws, depending on where you live, you may opt out from use of these automated technologies for such uses by opting out or unsubscribing for email newsletters and marketing material. Please note that some Services features may be unavailable as a result.
When you interact with the Services, there are third parties that may use automatic collection technologies to collect information about your or your device. These third parties may include:
These third parties may use tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use the Services. The information they collect may be associated with your personal data or they may collect information, including personal data, about your online activities over time and across different websites, apps, platforms, and other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content.
We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used. If you have any questions about an advertisement or other targeted content, you should contact the responsible provider directly.
From Business Partners and Service Providers
We may receive personal data about you from other sources and combine that with information we collect directly from you. For example, we may obtain information about you from service providers that we engage to perform services on our behalf, such as email platform providers, payment processors, and analytics, security and anti-fraud services. We also may receive personal data from business partners that we engage to share consumer information with us, including your personal preferences and demographic information such as age, gender, and income level so that we can better provide you with personalized services.
We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any personal data, to:
The usage information we collect, whether connected to your personal data or not, helps us improve our Services and deliver a better and more personalized experience by enabling us to:
We may disclose aggregated information about our users without restriction. We may also disclose personal data that we collect or you provide as described in this privacy policy:
We may also disclose your personal data:
This section describes mechanisms you can use to control certain uses and disclosures of your information and rights you may have under state law, depending on where you live.
Advertising, marketing, cookies, and other tracking technologies choices:
Depending on your state of residency, you may have certain rights related to your personal data, including:
Important: The exact scope of these rights vary by state. There are also several exceptions where we may not have an obligation to fulfill your request.
To exercise any of these rights, please send an e-mail to info@monarchisc.com.
Some browsers and browser extensions support the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) that can send a signal to process your request to opt out from certain types of data processing, including data “sales” as defined under certain laws. When we detect such a signal, we will make reasonable efforts to respect your choices indicated by a GPC setting as required by applicable law.
Nevada provides its residents with a limited right to opt out of certain personal data sales. Residents who wish to exercise their sale opt-out rights may submit a request to this designated address: info@monarchisc.com. However, please know we do not currently sell data triggering that statute’s opt-out requirements.
If you are a California resident, the CCPA grants you the following rights regarding your personal information:
You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information (the “right to know“), including the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you (a “data portability request“). Our response will cover the 12-month period preceding the request, although we will honor requests to cover a longer period that do not extend past January 1, 2022, unless doing so would be impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You may make exercise your right to know twice within in any 12-month period. Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, we will disclose to you:
Right to Delete and Right to Correct
You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions and limitations (the “right to delete“). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, we will delete your personal information from our systems unless an exception allows us to retain it. We will also notify our service providers to take appropriate action.
You also have the right to request correction of personal information we maintain about you that you believe is inaccurate (the “right to correct“). We may require you to provide documentation, if needed, to confirm your identity and support your claim that the information is inaccurate. Unless an exception applies, we will correct personal information that our review determines is inaccurate and notify our service providers to take appropriate action.
Right to Limit Sensitive Personal Information Use and Disclosure to Permitted SPI Purposes
You have a right to ask businesses that use or disclose your sensitive personal information to limit those actions to just the CCPA’s Permitted SPI Purposes (the “right to limit“). As we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information beyond the CCPA’s Permitted SPI Purposes, we do not currently provide this consumer right.
Personal Information Sales or Sharing Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights
You have the right to request that businesses stop selling or sharing your personal information at any time (the “right to opt-out“), including through a user-enabled opt-out preference signal. Similarly, the CCPA prohibits businesses from selling or sharing the personal information of consumers it actually knows are under 16 years old without first obtaining consent from consumers who are between 13 and 15 years old or the consumer’s parent or guardian for consumers under age 13 (the “right to opt-in“)
Right to Non-Discrimination
You have the right not to be discriminated or retaliated against for exercising any of your privacy rights under the CCPA.
Exercising the Rights to Know, Delete, or Correct
To exercise the right to know, data portability, delete, or correct described above, please submit a verifiable request to us by:
You or your authorized agent may only submit a request to know, including for data portability, twice within a 12-month period.
Exercising the Right to Opt-Out
You can submit your request to opt-out through:
You can also submit your request to opt-out of personal information sales and sharing through an opt-out preference signal.
We use commercially reasonable administrative, physical, and technical measures designed to protect your personal data from accidental loss or destruction and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. However, no website, mobile application, system, electronic storage, or online service is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data transmitted to, through, using, or in connection with the Services. In particular, e-mail, texts, and chats sent to or from the Services may not be secure, and you should carefully decide what information you send to us via such communications channels. Any transmission of personal data is at your own risk.
The safety and security of your information also depends on you. You are responsible for taking steps to protect your personal data against unauthorized use, disclosure, and access.
We keep the categories of personal data described in this policy for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described or for as otherwise legally permitted or required, such as maintaining the Services, operating our organization, complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes, and for safety, security, and fraud prevention. This means that we consider our legal and business obligations, potential risks of harm, and nature of the information when deciding how long to retain personal data. At the end of the retention period, personal data will be deleted, destroyed, or deidentified.
We may update this policy from time to time, and we will provide notice of any such changes to the policy as required by law. The date the privacy policy was last updated is identified at the top of the page. We will notify you of changes to this policy by updating the “last updated” date and posting the updated policy on the Services.
