Privacy Policy

This privacy policy (“Policy”) describes how 180 Link Media LLC (“180 Link Media LLC”, “we,” “us” or “our”) collects, protects, and uses the personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) you (“User,” “you” or “your”) may provide on the 180Link.com website and any of its products or services (collectively, “Website” or “Services”). It also describes your choices regarding our use of your Personal Information and how you can access and update this information. This Policy does not apply to the practices of companies we do not own or control or individuals we do not employ or manage.

Automatic Collection of Information

When you visit the Website, our servers automatically record the information your browser sends. This data may include information such as your device’s IP address, browser type, and version, operating system type and version, language preferences or the webpage you were visiting before you came to our Website, pages of our Website that you visited, the time spent on those pages, the information you search for on our Website, access times and dates, and other statistics.

Collection of Personal Information

You can visit the Website without telling us who you are or revealing any information by which someone could identify you as a specific, identifiable individual. If you wish to use some of the Website’s features, you will be asked to provide certain Personal Information (for example, your name and e-mail address). We receive and store any information you knowingly provide to us when you create an account, make a purchase, or fill out any online forms on the Website. This information may include your email address, name, phone number, address, credit card information, or other Personal Information when required. You can choose not to provide us with your Personal Information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of some of the Website’s features. Users uncertain about what information is mandatory are welcome to contact us.

Managing Personal Information

You can access, add to, update, and delete certain Personal Information about you. The information you can view, update, and delete may change as the Website or Services change. When you update information, however, we may maintain a copy of the unrevised information in our records. Some data may remain in our private records after you delete such information from your account. We will retain and use your Personal Information for the period necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements unless a more extended retention period is required or permitted by law. We may use any aggregated data derived from or incorporating your Personal Information after you update or delete it, but not in a manner that would identify you personally. Once the retention period expires, Personal Information shall be deleted. Therefore, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification, and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after the expiration of the retention period.

Use and Processing of Collected Information

Any of the information we collect from you may be used to personalize your experience, improve our Website, improve customer service and respond to queries and emails of our customers; process transactions; send newsletters; send notification emails such as password reminders, updates, etc.; run and operate our Website and Services. Information collected automatically is used only to identify potential cases of abuse and establish statistical information regarding Website usage. This statistical information is not otherwise aggregated in such a way that would identify any particular user of the system.

We may process Personal Information related to you if one of the following applies: (i) You have given your consent for one or more specific purposes. Note that under some legislations, we may be allowed to process information until you object to such processing (by opting out) without relying on consent or any other legal bases below. This, however, does not apply whenever the processing of Personal Information is subject to European data protection law; (ii) Provision of information is necessary for the performance of an agreement with you and for any pre-contractual obligations thereof; (iii) Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which you are subject; (iv) Processing is related to a task that is carried out in the public interest or the exercise of official authority vested in us; (v) Processing is necessary for the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party. In any case, we will be happy to clarify the specific legal basis that applies to the processing, mainly whether the provision of Personal Information is a statutory or contractual requirement or a requirement necessary to enter into a contract.

Information Transfer and Storage

Depending on your location, data transfers may involve transferring and storing your information in a country other than your own. You are entitled to learn about the legal basis of information transfers to a country outside the European Union or to any international organization governed by public international law or set up by two or more countries, such as the UN, and about the security measures taken by us to safeguard your information. If any such transfer occurs, you can find out more by checking the relevant sections of this document or inquire with us using the information provided in the contact section.

The Rights of Users

You may exercise certain rights regarding your information processed by us. In particular, you have the right to do the following: (i) you have the right to withdraw consent where you have previously given your consent to the processing of your information; (ii) you have the right to object to the processing of your information if the processing is carried out on a legal basis other than consent; (iii) you have the right to learn if information is being processed by us, obtain disclosure regarding certain aspects of the processing and obtain a copy of the information undergoing processing; (iv) you have the right to verify the accuracy of your information and ask for it to be updated or corrected; (v) you have the right, under certain circumstances, to restrict the processing of your information, in which case, we will not process your information for any purpose other than storing it; (vi) you have the right, under certain circumstances, to obtain the erasure of your Personal Information from us; (vii) you have the right to receive your information in a structured, commonly used and machine readable format and, if technically feasible, to have it transmitted to another controller without any hindrance. This provision is applicable provided that your information is processed by automated means and is based on your consent, a contract you are part of or pre-contractual obligations.

The Right to Object to Processing

Where Personal Information is processed for the public interest, in the exercise of an official authority vested in us, or for the legitimate interests pursued by us, you may object to such processing by providing a ground related to your particular situation to justify the objection. You must know that, however, should your Personal Information be processed for direct marketing purposes, you can object to that processing at any time without providing any justification. To learn whether we are processing Personal Information for direct marketing purposes, refer to this document’s relevant sections.

How to Exercise These Rights

Any requests to exercise User rights can be directed to the Owner through the contact details provided in this document. These requests can be exercised free of charge and will be addressed by the Owner as early as possible.

California Privacy Rights

In addition to the rights, as explained in this Privacy Policy, California residents who provide Personal Information (as defined in the statute) to obtain products or services for personal, family, or household use are entitled to request and obtain from us once a calendar year, information about the Personal Information we shared, if any, with other businesses for marketing uses. If applicable, this information would include the categories of Personal Information and the names and addresses of those businesses with which we shared such personal data for the prior calendar year (e.g., requests made in the current year will receive information about the preceding year). To obtain this information, please get in touch with us.

Billing and Payments

In case of services requiring payment, we request credit card or other payment account information, which will be used solely for processing payments. Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted. Where necessary for processing future payments and subject to your consent, your financial information will be stored in encrypted form on secure servers of our reputed payment gateway service provider, which is beholden to treating your Personal Information by this Privacy Policy. All direct payment gateways adhere to the latest security standards managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. Sensitive and private data exchange happens over an SSL-secured communication channel and is encrypted and protected with digital signatures.

Privacy of Children

We do not knowingly collect any Personal Information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not submit Personal Information through our Website or Service. We encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s Internet usage and to help enforce this Policy by instructing their children never to provide Personal Information through our Website or Service without their permission. Please get in touch with us if you have reason to believe that a child under 13 has provided Personal Information to us through our Website or Service. You must also be at least 16 years of age to consent to processing your Personal Information in your country (in some countries, we may allow your parent or guardian to do so on your behalf).

Newsletters

We offer electronic newsletters to which you may voluntarily subscribe at any time. You may choose to stop receiving our newsletter or marketing emails by following the unsubscribe instructions included in these emails or by contacting us. However, you will continue to receive essential transactional emails.

Cookies

The Website uses “cookies” to help personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie. We may use cookies to collect, store, and track information for statistical purposes to operate our Website and Services. You can accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can modify your browser settings to decline cookies. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to experience the features of the Website and Services fully. To learn more about cookies and how to manage them, visit internetcookies.org

In addition to using cookies and related technologies as described above, we also may permit certain third-party companies to help us tailor advertising that we think may interest users and collect and use other data about user activities on the Website. These companies may deliver ads that place cookies and otherwise track user behavior.

Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers incorporate a Do Not Track feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Tracking is not the same as using or collecting information about a website. Tracking refers to collecting personally identifiable information from consumers who use or visit a website or online service as they move across different websites over time. How browsers communicate the Do Not Track signal is not yet uniform. As a result, this Website is not yet set up to interpret or respond to Do Not Track signals communicated by your browser. Even so, as described in more detail throughout this Policy, we limit our use and collection of your personal information.

Advertisement

We may display online advertisements and share aggregated and non-identifying information about our customers that we collect through the registration process or through online surveys and promotions with certain advertisers. We do not share personally identifiable information about individual customers with advertisers. Sometimes, we may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to deliver tailored advertisements to the intended audience.

Affiliates

We may disclose information about you to our affiliates to be able to offer you related or additional products and services. Those affiliates will treat any information relating to you that we provide to our affiliates by the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Links to other Websites

Our Website contains links to other websites that we do not own or control. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other websites or third parties. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our Website and to read the privacy statements of every website that may collect Personal Information.

Information Security

We secure the information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment protected from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect against unauthorized access, use, modification, and disclosure of Personal Information in its control and custody. However, no Internet or wireless network data transmission can be guaranteed. Therefore, while we strive to protect your Personal Information, you acknowledge that (i) there are security and privacy limitations of the Internet that are beyond our control; (ii) the security, integrity, and privacy of any information and data exchanged between you and our Website cannot be guaranteed; and (iii) any such information and data may be viewed or tampered with in transit by a third party, despite best efforts.

Data Breach

If we become aware that the security of the Website has been compromised or user Personal Information has been disclosed to unrelated third parties as a result of external activity, including, but not limited to, security attacks or fraud, we reserve the right to take reasonably appropriate measures, including, but not limited to, investigation and reporting, as well as notification to and cooperation with law enforcement authorities. In the event of a data breach, we will make reasonable efforts to notify affected individuals if we believe there is a moderate risk of harm to the user due to the breach or if notice is otherwise required by law. When we do, we will send you an email.

Legal Disclosure

We will disclose any information we collect, use, or receive if required or permitted by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or similar legal process, and when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.

Changes and Amendments

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time at our discretion and will notify you of any material changes to how we treat Personal Information. When changes are made, we will revise the updated date at the bottom of this page. We may also provide notice to you in other ways at our discretion, such as through the contact information you have provided. Any updated version of this Privacy Policy will be effective immediately upon posting the revised Privacy Policy unless otherwise specified. Your continued use of the Website or Services after the effective date of the revised Privacy Policy (or such other act specified at that time) will constitute your consent to those changes. However, we will not, without your permission, use your Data in a manner materially different than what was stated at the time your Personal Data was collected.

Acceptance of this Policy

You acknowledge that you have read this Policy and agree to all its terms and conditions. By using the Website or its Services, you agree to be bound by this Policy. If you do not agree to abide by the terms of this Policy, you are not authorized to use or access the Website and its Services.
