IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by our web server as part of demographic and profile data known as “traffic data” so that data (such as the Web pages you request) can be sent to you.

We are committed to keeping your e-mail address confidential. We do not sell, rent, or lease our subscription lists to third parties, and we will not provide your personal information to any third party individual, government agency, or company at any time unless strictly compelled to do so by law.

 

We will use your e-mail address solely to provide timely information about services we are contractually obligated to provide to you and products, programs and services that may be of interest to you.

 

We will maintain the information you send via e-mail in accordance with applicable federal law.

 

SOUL CANDY DOES NOT SELL, RENT OR LEASE ITS CUSTOMER LISTS TO THIRD PARTIES.

 

Soul Candy may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. These third party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.

 

Soul Candy may share data with trusted partners to help fulfill our contractual obligations to you, perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to Soul Candy, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

 

Soul Candy will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Soul Candy or representatives; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Soul Candy or its representatives; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of representatives or users of the Soul Candy website, or the public.

 

THE BASES ON WHICH WE PROCESS INFORMATION ABOUT YOU

 

The law requires us to determine under which of six defined bases we process different categories of your personal information, and to notify you of the basis for each category.

 

If a basis on which we process your personal information is no longer relevant then we shall immediately stop processing your data.

 

If the basis changes then if required by law Soul Candy shall notify you of the change and of any new basis under which we have determined that we can continue to process your information.

 

CAN-SPAM COMPLIANCE

 

In compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act, all e-mail sent from our organization will clearly state who the e-mail is from and provide clear information on how to contact the sender. In addition, all e-mail 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.

 

INFORMATION WE PROCESS BECAUSE WE HAVE A CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION WITH YOU

 

When you sign up for our blog or other free gifts, buy a product or service from us, or otherwise agree to our terms and conditions, a contract is formed between you and us.

 

In order to carry out our obligations under that contract we must process the information you give us. Some of this information may be personal information.

 

We may use it in order to:

 

• verify your identity for security purposes
• provide you with our products or services
• sell products to you
• provide you with suggestions and advice on products, services and how to obtain the most from using our website

 

Soul Candy processes this information on the basis that there is a contract between us, or that you have requested we use the information before we enter into a legal contract.

 

Additionally, we may aggregate this information in a general way and use it to provide class information, for example to monitor our performance with respect to a particular service we provide. If we use it for this purpose, you as an individual will not be personally identifiable.

 

Soul Candy shall continue to process this information until the contract between us ends or is terminated by either party under the terms of the contract.

 

 

INFORMATION WE PROCESS WITH YOUR CONSENT

 

Through certain actions when otherwise there is no contractual relationship between us, such as when you browse our website or ask us to provide you more information about our business, including our products and services, you provide your consent to us to process information that may be personal information.

 

Wherever possible, we aim to obtain your explicit consent to process this information.

 

Sometimes you might give your consent implicitly, such as when you send us a message by e-mail to which you would reasonably expect us to reply.

 

Except where you have consented to our use of your information for a specific purpose, we do not use your information in any way that would identify you personally. Soul Candy may aggregate it in a general way and use it to provide class information, for example to monitor the performance of a particular page on our website.

 

If you have given us explicit permission to do so, we may from time to time pass your name and contact information to selected associates whom we consider may provide services or products you would find useful.

 

Soul Candy continues to process your information on this basis until you withdraw your consent or it can be reasonably assumed that your consent no longer exists.

 

You may withdraw your consent at any time by instructing us [info@soulcandyinstitute.com]. However, if you do so, you may not be able to use our website or our services further.

 

 

INFORMATION WE PROCESS FOR THE PURPOSES OF LEGITIMATE INTERESTS

 

Soul Candy may process information on the basis there is a legitimate interest, either to you or to us, of doing so.

 

Where we process your information on this basis, we do after having given careful consideration to:

• whether the same objective could be achieved through other means
• whether processing (or not processing) might cause you harm
• whether you would expect us to process your data, and whether you would, in the round, consider it reasonable to do so

 

For example, we may process your data on this basis for the purposes of:

 

• record-keeping for the proper and necessary administration of our organizational or business
• responding to unsolicited communication from you to which we believe you would expect a response
• protecting and asserting the legal rights of any party
• insuring against or obtaining professional advice that is required to manage organizational or business risk
• protecting your interests where we believe we have a duty to do so

 

 

INFORMATION WE PROCESS BECAUSE WE HAVE A LEGAL OBLIGATION

 

Soul Candy is subject to the law like everyone else. Sometimes, we must process your information in order to comply with a statutory obligation.

 

For example, we may be required to give information to legal authorities if they so request or if they have the proper authorization such as a search warrant or court order.

 

This may include your personal information.

 

 

INFORMATION PROVIDED ON THE UNDERSTANDING THAT IT WILL BE SHARED WITH A THIRD PARTY

 

The Soul Candy website allows you to post information with the intention that that information be read, copied, downloaded, or used by other people.

 

Examples include:

• posting a comment on a blog post

 

In posting personal information, it is up to you to satisfy yourself about the privacy level of every person who might use it.

 

WE DO NOT SPECIFICALLY USE THIS INFORMATION EXCEPT TO ALLOW IT TO BE DISPLAYED OR SHARED.

 

We do store it, and we reserve a right to use it in the future in any way we decide.

Once your information enters the public domain, we have no control over what any individual third party may do with it. Soul Candy and its website accept no responsibility for their actions at any time.

 

Provided your request is reasonable and there is no legal basis for us to retain it, then at our discretion we may agree to your request to delete personal information that you have posted. You can make a request by contacting us at [info@soulcandyinstitute.com].
