If you are located in the EU or UK, this section applies to you.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on in order to process your personal information/data. We may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information:
- Consent. If you have given us permission (i.e. consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, we may process your information. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
- Performance of Contract. When we believe it is necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations to you, we may process your information.
- Legitimate Interests. When we believe it is reasonable or necessary to achieve our legitimate business interest and those interests do not outweigh your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms, we may process your information such as:
- Send users information about special offers and discounts on our products and services
- Develop and display our marketing activities
- Diagnose problems and/or prevent fraudulent activities
- Understand how our users use our products and services so we can improve the user’s experience
- Legal Obligations. Where we believe it is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations, such as to cooperate with a law enforcement body or regular agency, exercise or defend our legal rights, or disclose your information as evidence in litigation in which we are involved, we may process your information.
- Vital Interests. Where we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party, we may process your information.
If you are located in Canada, this section applies to you.
If you have given us specific permission (i.e. express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in a situation where your permission can be inferred (i.e. implied consent), we may process your information. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
We may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent in some exceptional cases, for example:
- If collection is clearly in the interests of an individual and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way
- For investigations and fraud detection and prevention
- For business transactions provided certain conditions are met
- If it is contained in a witness statement and the collection is necessary to assess, process, or settle an insurance claim
- For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next of kin
- If we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may be a victim of financial abuse
- If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information. Additionally, if the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
- If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records
- If it was produced by an individual in the course of their employment, business, or profession. Plus, the collection is consistent with the purpose for which the information was produced
- If the collection is solely for journalistic, artistic, or literary purposes
- If the information is publicly available and is specified by the regulations
4. Sharing Your Personal Information
In the following situations we may need to share your personal information:
- Business Transfers. We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.
- When we use Google Maps Platform APIs. We may share your information with certain Google Maps Platform APIs (e.g. Google Maps API, Places API).
- Business Partners. We may share your information with our business partners to offer you certain products, services, or promotions.
- Other Users. When you share personal information (for example, by posting comments, contributions or other content to the Services) or otherwise interact with public areas of the Services, such as personal information. It may be viewed by all users and may be publicly made available outside the Services in perpetuity. If you interact with other users of our Services and register for our Services through a social network (such as Facebook), your contacts on the social network will see your name, profile photo, and descriptions of your activity. Similarly, other users will be able to view descriptions of your activity, communicate with you within our Services, and view your profile.
5. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
To access or store information we may use cookies and similar tracking technologies.
6. Storing Information
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice. Unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us to keep your personal information for longer than three (3) months past the termination of the user’s account.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise such information. Or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
7. Information Safety
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organisational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safety guards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. So we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorised third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, the transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.
8. Information from Minors
We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under the age of 18, please contact us at reimaginesustainability@gmail.com
9. Specific Privacy Rights for California Residents
California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the ‘Shine The Light’ law, permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, once a year and free of charge, information about categories of personal information (if any). Like information, we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared personal information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in written form to us.
