Privacy

This Privacy Policy outlines information that MADMINDS LLC ("madMINDS," "we," "us" or "our") collects in connection with the operation of www.themadminds.com ("the Site"), how the information is used and how you can access and correct certain information that we collect. Note that this Privacy Policy applies only to information collected from you by madMINDS via the Site. The Site may contain links to other entities' websites that are not controlled or operated by madMINDS. This Privacy Policy does not apply to such third party websites, and we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such third party websites.

Your privacy is important to us! madMINDS values its visitors and customers and is committed to protecting your privacy. We share your information only as described in this Privacy Policy. madMINDS has provided this Privacy Policy to assist you in understanding the information that we collect, how we use it, and the ways we maintain it, including the security of your personal information.

Information we collect

When you visit the Site you may provide us with two types of information:

1)Personal information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual basis.

2)Non personally identifiable information of website use on an aggregate basis as you and others browse the Site.

1) Personal Information You Choose to Provide:

Credit Card Information 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 address

Credit card number

Home and business phone number

Please note that credit card numbers and account information is not stored on our server in order to ensure your security.

Email Information In addition to providing the foregoing information to our partners, if you choose to correspond further 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.

We also may take your Personal Information and make it non-personally identifiable, either by combining it with information about other individuals (aggregating your information with information about other individuals), or by removing characteristics (such as your name) that make the information personally identifiable to you (de-personalizing your information). Given the nature of this information, there are no restrictions under this Privacy Policy upon the right of madMINDS to aggregate or de-personalize your Personal Information, and we may use and/or share with third parties the resulting non-personally identifiable information in any manner.

Unless legally required to do so, madMINDS will not sell, rent or otherwise disclose your Personal Information to any outside company or organization, except as described herein. This Privacy Policy excludes data that may be stored or transmitted to or from the Internet company hosting this Website.

2) Web Site Use Information through Cookies:

The use of "cookies" is a standard practice among websites. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer to uniquely distinguish your visit to a website. Cookies are most often used to track specific information regarding your activity on a particular website. Similar to other commercial Web sites, the Site utilizes cookies and Web server logs to collect information about how the Site is used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at the Site, and the Web sites visited just before and just after the Site. This information is collected on an aggregate basis. None of this information is associated with you as an individual.

How we secure your data

To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we utilize encryption/security software through Shopify to encrypt all secured data between the browser and the Site to safeguard the confidentiality of personal information we collect from unauthorized access or disclosure and accidental loss, alteration or destruction. Your store account information is password-protected for your privacy and security. We safeguard the security of the data you send us with certain physical, electronic, and managerial procedures. We have taken reasonable precautions to protect against misuse, theft, loss, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction of your personal information.

We use Shopify's High Grade Encryption to enhance the security of data transmissions and all credit card transactions. When you send confidential personal credit card information to us on the Site, a secure server software which we have licensed encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us. The information is scrambled en route and decoded once it reaches our Web site. We do not store your financial data on our website or in our server.

Other email that you may send to us may not be secure unless we advise you that security measures will be in place prior to your transmitting the information. For that reason, we ask that you do not send confidential information such as credit card account numbers to us through an unsecured email provider.

How we use your information

We want enough information to process your payment, open the lines of communication, ship your product and provide you updated product information.
