Privacy Policy

Her Startup - Helping women launch, grow, & give back

Our Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to combine the highest-quality services and products with the highest level of integrity in dealing with our clients and partners. The Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and safeguard the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our site and our products and services. This statement will be continuously assessed against new technologies, business practices and our customers' needs.

When you visit our website you may provide us with two types of information: personal information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual basis (active information), and website use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and others browse our website (passive information).

Persons Under 18
No person under 18 should disclose information on this site. You may learn more about protecting children's privacy online by visiting www.ftc.gov/kidzprivacy.

Information Disclosed for Services
If you choose to purchase products or services from us or our partners, you may need to give personal information and authorization to obtain information from various credit services. For example, you may need to provide the following information: name, mailing address, email, credit card number, home and business phone, other personal information (i.e. mother's maiden name). Her Startup™ uses such information only for processing your order and to contact you via email if you indicated that you wished to receive email notification of updates. Your credit card number is not stored on this site.

In addition to providing the foregoing 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 by mail and telephone.

Passive Information Collected
Our site utilizes a standard technology called "cookies" to collect information about how this site is used. Passive Information gathered may include the date and time of visits, the site pages viewed, time spent at this site, the sites visited just before and just after this site. Passive Information is collected on an aggregate basis without any association to your personal information so that you remain anonymous. If you do not wish to transmit "cookie" information about yourself, you may turn off the cookie function in your web browser. Please consult the "Help" section of your browser to correctly do so.

Cookies
Cookies are a feature of web browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, etc.) software that allows web servers to recognize the computer used to access a site. They are small pieces of data that are stored by a user's web browser on one site to simplify subsequent interactions with that site by the same user or to use the information to streamline the user's transaction on related web pages. This makes it easier for a user to move from site to site and to complete transactions over the Internet. Cookies should make your online experience easier and more personalized.

How We Use the Information Provided
Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of administering our business activities, providing customer service and making available other products and services to our customers and prospective customers. Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to notify you about important changes to our website, new services and special offers we think you will find valuable. The lists used to send you product and service offers are developed and managed under our traditional corporate standards designed to safeguard the security and privacy of our customers’ personal information. As a customer, you will be given the opportunity, at least once annually, to notify us of your desire not to receive these offers. None of this information is associated with you as an individual.

Government & Legal Entities
We may be required by law or government agency to disclose both Active and Passive Information you have provided to Her Startup™ and will do so only if required by law or subpoena, or for enforcement of claims regarding our purchase agreement license.

Affiliates
From time to time you may notice offers from outside companies advertised on our website. We take measures to select product or service providers that are responsible and afford privacy protections to their customers. However, we cannot make any representations about the practices and policies of these companies.

Strategic Partners
We may enter into strategic marketing alliances or partnerships with third parties who may be given access to personal information including your name, address, telephone number and email for the purpose of providing you information regarding products and services that we think will be of interest to you. In connection with strategic marketing alliances or partnerships, we will retain all ownership rights to the information, and we will not share information regarding your social security number or other personal financial data.

Notices of New Services & Changes
Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to notify you about important changes to our website, new services and special offers we think you will find valuable. As our client, you will be given the opportunity to notify us of your desire not to receive these offers by clicking on a response box when you receive such an offer or by sending us an email request at optout@herstartup.com.

Info Disclosed to Outside Parties
We may provide aggregate information about our customers, sales, website traffic patterns and related website information to our affiliates or reputable third parties, but this information will not include personally identifying data, except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy.

Linked Websites
We are not responsible for the practices employed by websites linked to or from our website nor the information or content contained therein. Often links to other websites are provided solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful to the users of our website.

Security
We secure your personal information submitted by you by using reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, or accidental loss or destruction of Active Information and Passive Information. Other communications you may have with Her Startup™ via email or snail mail may not be secure unless Her Startup™ advises you that security measures are in place prior to your sending information. Therefore, if you choose to communicate with Her Startup™ through these means, you are assuming the risk of doing so and Her Startup™ requests that you do not send or post sensitive information through these means.

We reserve the right to revise this policy at our discretion. Please check back on this website as the policy may be revised from time to time without notice to you.
