HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We use the Personal Information we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
We may use your Personal Information for the purposes of advertising and retargeting. From time to time, we may release (publicly or privately) non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website, products, and services.
SHARING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We share your Personal Information with third parties to help us use your Personal Information, as described above. For example, we use Bluehost to host our website on WordPress, and we use Hubspot as a CRM and marketing tool. Here’s a practical example of how these two technologies intereact with one another: using APIs, these two systems connect with one another to allow us to do things like sync user information from Wordpress to Hubspot, or even to create forms in Hubspot and embed them on the Wordpress site.
We also use Google Analytics to help us understand how our customers use the Site. You can read more about how Google uses your Personal Information here: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/. We use Cloudflare as a Content Delivery Network to boost website speeds.
Finally, we may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our rights.
As described above, we use your Personal Information to provide you with targeted advertisements or marketing communications we believe may be of interest to you. For more information about how targeted advertising works, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s (“NAI”) educational page at: http://www.networkadvertising.org/understanding-online-advertising/how-does-it-work.
You can opt out of targeted advertising by:

The security of your Personal Information is important to us, and we take appropriate measures to protect your Personal Information.

However, please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
