Information We Collect About You

When you access the Website, the Company will learn cer­tain infor­ma­tion about you dur­ing your visit.

Information You Provide To Us. The Website pro­vides var­i­ous places for users to pro­vide infor­ma­tion. We col­lect infor­ma­tion that users pro­vide by fill­ing out forms on the Website, com­mu­ni­cat­ing with us via con­tact forms, respond­ing to sur­veys, search queries on our search fea­ture, pro­vid­ing com­ments or oth­er feed­back, and pro­vid­ing infor­ma­tion when order­ing a prod­uct or ser­vice via the Website.

We use infor­ma­tion you pro­vide to us to deliv­er the request­ed prod­uct and/or ser­vice, to improve our over­all per­for­mance, and to pro­vide you with offers, pro­mo­tions, and information.

Information We Collect Through Automatic Data Collection Technology. As you nav­i­gate through our Website, we may use auto­mat­ic data col­lec­tion tech­nolo­gies includ­ing Google Analytics to col­lect cer­tain infor­ma­tion about your equip­ment, brows­ing actions, and pat­terns. This will gen­er­al­ly include infor­ma­tion about your loca­tion, your traf­fic pat­tern through our web­site, and any com­mu­ni­ca­tions between your com­put­er and our Website. Among oth­er things, we will col­lect data about the type of com­put­er you use, your Internet con­nec­tion, your IP address, your oper­at­ing sys­tem, and your brows­er type.

The infor­ma­tion we col­lect auto­mat­i­cal­ly is used for sta­tis­ti­cal data and will not include per­son­al infor­ma­tion. We use this data to improve our Website and our ser­vice offer­ings. To the extent that you vol­un­tar­i­ly pro­vide per­son­al infor­ma­tion to us, our sys­tems will asso­ciate the auto­mat­i­cal­ly col­lect­ed infor­ma­tion with your per­son­al information.

Use of Cookies And Pixels

Similar to oth­er com­mer­cial web­sites, our web­site uti­lizes a stan­dard tech­nol­o­gy called “cook­ies” and serv­er logs to col­lect infor­ma­tion about how our site is used. Information gath­ered through cook­ies and serv­er logs may include the date and time of vis­its, the pages viewed, time spent at our site, and the web­sites vis­it­ed just before and just after our own, as well as your IP address.

A cook­ie is a very small text doc­u­ment, which often includes an anony­mous unique iden­ti­fi­er. When you vis­it a web­site, that site’s com­put­er asks your com­put­er for per­mis­sion to store this file in a part of your hard dri­ve specif­i­cal­ly des­ig­nat­ed for cook­ies. Each web­site can send its own cook­ie to your brows­er if your browser’s pref­er­ences allow it, but (to pro­tect your pri­va­cy) your brows­er only per­mits a web­site to access the cook­ies it has already sent to you, not the cook­ies sent to you by oth­er sites.

The Company reserves the right to use tech­no­log­i­cal equiv­a­lents of cook­ies, includ­ing social media pix­els. These pix­els allow social media sites to track vis­i­tors to out­side web­sites so as to tai­lor adver­tis­ing mes­sages users see while vis­it­ing that social media web­site. The Company reserves the right to use these pix­els in com­pli­ance with the poli­cies of the var­i­ous social media sites.

Third Party Use Of Cookies

Some con­tent or appli­ca­tions, includ­ing adver­tise­ments, on the Website are served by third-par­ties, includ­ing adver­tis­ers, ad net­works and servers, con­tent providers, and appli­ca­tion providers. These third par­ties may use cook­ies alone or in con­junc­tion with web bea­cons or oth­er track­ing tech­nolo­gies to col­lect infor­ma­tion about you when you use our web­site. The infor­ma­tion they col­lect may be asso­ci­at­ed with your per­son­al infor­ma­tion or they may col­lect infor­ma­tion, includ­ing per­son­al infor­ma­tion, about your online activ­i­ties over time and across dif­fer­ent web­sites 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.

Email Information

If you choose to cor­re­spond with us through email, we may retain the con­tent of your email mes­sages togeth­er with your email address and our respons­es. We pro­vide the same pro­tec­tions for these elec­tron­ic com­mu­ni­ca­tions that we employ in the main­te­nance of infor­ma­tion received online, mail, and tele­phone. This also applies when you reg­is­ter for our web­site, sign up through any of our forms using your email address or make a pur­chase on this site. For fur­ther infor­ma­tion see the email poli­cies below.

In com­pli­ance with the CAN-SPAM Act, all emails sent from our orga­ni­za­tion will clear­ly state who the email is from and pro­vide clear infor­ma­tion on how to con­tact the sender. In addi­tion, all email mes­sages will also con­tain con­cise infor­ma­tion on how to remove your­self from our mail­ing list so that you receive no fur­ther e‑mail com­mu­ni­ca­tion from us.

Our emails pro­vide users the oppor­tu­ni­ty to opt-out of receiv­ing com­mu­ni­ca­tions from us and our part­ners by read­ing the unsub­scribe instruc­tions locat­ed at the bot­tom of any email they receive from us at anytime.

Disclosure Of Your Information

As a gen­er­al rule, we do not sell, rent, lease or oth­er­wise trans­fer any infor­ma­tion col­lect­ed whether auto­mat­i­cal­ly or through your vol­un­tary action.

We may dis­close your per­son­al infor­ma­tion to our sub­sidiaries, affil­i­ates, and ser­vice providers for the pur­pose of pro­vid­ing our ser­vices to you.

We may dis­close your per­son­al infor­ma­tion to a third par­ty, includ­ing a lawyer or col­lec­tion agency, when nec­es­sary to enforce our terms of ser­vice or any oth­er agree­ment between you and the Company.

We may pro­vide your infor­ma­tion to any suc­ces­sor in inter­est in the event of a merg­er, divesti­ture, restruc­tur­ing, reor­ga­ni­za­tion, dis­so­lu­tion, or oth­er sale or trans­fer of some or all of the Company’s assets and/or business.

We may dis­close infor­ma­tion when legal­ly com­pelled to do so, in oth­er words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law requires it or for the pro­tec­tion of our legal rights or when com­pelled by a court or oth­er gov­ern­men­tal enti­ty to do so.

We may dis­close your pic­ture or video anony­mous­ly on our site only if you pro­vide it by attend­ing any event or work­shop where media is recorded.

Media Rights & Publication

Events/Group Work

By par­tic­i­pat­ing in any event, class, work­shop, or pub­lic group online or in per­son, you under­stand that video is a require­ment for pro­vid­ing you with ser­vices. Recordings or still images or pho­tos may be used for mar­ket­ing and pro­mo­tion­al or train­ing pur­pos­es. We do not give any iden­ti­fy­ing infor­ma­tion, such as last name or con­tact infor­ma­tion in these media. We do not share any reveal­ing or sen­si­tive or per­son­al infor­ma­tion with your per­mis­sion, all infor­ma­tion dis­closed at events or ses­sions is strict­ly con­fi­den­tial. Any tes­ti­mo­ni­als or reviews made by you dur­ing or after events implies per­mis­sion to use for mar­ket­ing and are con­sid­ered endorse­ments. We retain all rights to replays and media cre­at­ed from events, and by par­tic­i­pat­ing you agree to waive any claims to media (pho­to, audio, video, etc.).

Private One-on-One

Private ses­sions are record­ed for your replay use and remain pri­vate. Nothing reveal­ing or of any sen­si­tive nature is shared — ever. Your pri­va­cy is incred­i­bly impor­tant. However, if we deem our own words and con­tent from these ses­sions valu­able, we claim the rights and may extract our image and voice only to use for busi­ness pur­pos­es. Your face or any iden­ti­fy­ing infor­ma­tion is nev­er shared, and we will nev­er post any­thing con­tain­ing sen­si­tive or ther­a­peu­tic information.

How Do We Protect Your Information and Secure Information Transmissions?

We employ com­mer­cial­ly rea­son­able meth­ods to ensure the secu­ri­ty of the infor­ma­tion you pro­vide to us and the infor­ma­tion we col­lect auto­mat­i­cal­ly. This includes using stan­dard secu­ri­ty pro­to­cols and work­ing only with rep­utable third-par­ty vendors.

Email is not rec­og­nized as a secure medi­um of com­mu­ni­ca­tion. For this rea­son, we request that you do not send pri­vate infor­ma­tion to us by email. However, doing so is allowed, but at your own risk. Some of the infor­ma­tion you may enter on our web­site may be trans­mit­ted secure­ly via a secure medi­um known as Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL. Credit Card infor­ma­tion and oth­er sen­si­tive infor­ma­tion is nev­er trans­mit­ted via email.

The Company may use soft­ware pro­grams to cre­ate sum­ma­ry sta­tis­tics, which are used for such pur­pos­es as assess­ing the num­ber of vis­i­tors to the dif­fer­ent sec­tions of our site, what infor­ma­tion is of most and least inter­est, deter­min­ing tech­ni­cal design spec­i­fi­ca­tions, and iden­ti­fy­ing sys­tem per­for­mance or prob­lem areas.

For site secu­ri­ty pur­pos­es and to ensure that this ser­vice remains avail­able to all users, the Company uses soft­ware pro­grams to mon­i­tor net­work traf­fic to iden­ti­fy unau­tho­rized attempts to upload or change infor­ma­tion, or oth­er­wise cause damage.
