In addition to the uses described below, these technologies provide analytical information about the user experience and help us customize our marketing activities.

  2. Purposes for using these technologies
    We and authorized third parties use these technologies for purposes including:

    4. Advertising, such as conducting advertising and content personalization on our Digital Properties and those of third parties; tracking activity over time and across properties to develop a profile of your interests and advertise to you based on those interests (“interest-based advertising”); providing you with offers and online content that may be of interest to you; and measuring the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and our communications with you, including identifying how and when you engage with one of our emails; and

  4. Disclosures of your information
    We may disclose information to third parties or allow third parties to directly collect information using these technologies on our Digital Properties, such as social media companies, advertising networks, companies that provide analytics including ad tracking and reporting, security providers, and others that help us operate our business and Digital Properties.  
  5. Your choices
    Some of the third parties we work with participate with the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") and Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"). The DAA and NAI provide mechanisms for you to opt out of interest-based advertising performed by participating members at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ and https://optout.networkadvertising.org/. We adhere to the DAA’s Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising. You may also click on the AboutAds icon on a Company advertisement and follow the instructions on how to opt out.

    You can also refuse or delete cookies using your browser settings. If you refuse or delete cookies, some of our Digital Properties’ functionality may be impaired. Please refer to your browser’s Help instructions to learn more about how to manage cookies and the use of other tracking technologies. If you change computers, devices, or browsers; use multiple computers, devices, or browsers; or delete your cookies, you may need to repeat this process for each computer, device, or browser. Opting out of interest-based advertising will not opt you out of all advertising, but rather only interest-based advertising from us or our agents or representatives.

    Some browsers have incorporated Do Not Track (“DNT”) preferences.  At this time, we do not honor Do Not Track signals.

Data Security and Data Retention

Although we maintain reasonable security safeguards, no security measures or communications over the Internet can be 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information. Your Personal Information will be retained as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we have outlined above unless we are required to do otherwise by applicable law. This includes retaining your Personal Information to provide you or your company with the products and services requested and interact with you; maintain our business relationship with you or your company; improve our business over time; ensure the ongoing legality, safety and security of our services and relationships; or otherwise in accordance with our internal retention procedures. Once you or your company has terminated your relationship with us, we may retain your Personal Information in our systems and records in order to ensure adequate fulfillment of surviving provisions in terminated contracts or for other legitimate business purposes, such as to enable easier future user onboarding, in order to demonstrate our business practices and contractual obligations, or to provide you with information about our products and services in case of interest.

Supplemental U.S. State Privacy Disclosures

  1. Data Subject Rights
    If you live in California, you may have certain rights regarding Personal Information:
    1. Right to Know. You may have the right to request information about the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which we collected the Personal Information, the purposes for collecting, selling, or sharing the Personal Information, and to whom we have disclosed your Personal Information and why. You may also request the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.
    2. Right to Delete. You may have the right to request that we delete Personal Information that we have collected from you.
    3. Right to Correct. You may have the right to request that we correct inaccurate Personal Information that we maintain about you.

    You may exercise the rights available to you by emailing us at privacy@helloheart.com or by calling us at 1 (800) 767-3471.

    In order to fully exercise the Right to Opt Out of Sales and Sharing for Targeted Advertising you must undertake both of the following steps:
    1. Disable the use of advertising cookies and other tracking technologies in the preference center by clicking on the cookie icon in the bottom left of the screen.  You must complete this step on each of our websites from each browser and on each device that you use.  These steps are necessary so that we can place a first-party cookie signaling that you have opted out on each browser and each device you use.  Please note:
      1. If you block cookies, we will be unable to comply with your request to opt out of sales and sharing for targeted advertising with respect to device data that we automatically collect and disclose to third parties online using cookies, pixels, and other tracking technologies.
      2. If you clear cookies, you will need to disable the use of all advertising cookies and tracking technologies in the preference center again on each browser on each device where you have cleared cookies. 
    To the extent required by law, we will honor opt-out preference signals sent in a format commonly used and recognized by businesses, such as an HTTP header field or JavaScript object. We will process opt-out preference signals at the browser level.

    We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

    Verification: In order to process rights requests, we may need to obtain information to locate you in our records or verify your identity depending on the nature of the request. In most cases we will collect some or all of the following data elements: first and last name, email address, and telephone number. In some cases, we may request different or additional information, including a signed declaration that you are who you say you are. We will inform you if we need such information.

    Authorized Agents: Authorized agents may exercise rights on behalf of an individual by submitting a request via contact@helloheart.com and indicating that they are submitting the request as an agent. We may require the agent to demonstrate authority to act on behalf of the individual by providing signed permission from the individual. We may also require you to verify your own identity directly with us or to directly confirm with us that the individual provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.

    Notice of Financial Incentive: We may offer programs, benefits, and other offerings to consumers related to the collection, retention, or sale of Personal Information that may be deemed a “financial incentive” or “price or service difference” under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”).  These offerings may involve collecting the following categories of Personal Information from customers who participate: identifiers; customer records; protected class and demographic information; commercial information and preferences; internet or other electronic network activity information and device information; audio, electronic, visual, or other sensory information; and inferences.  We are providing you with this information so that you may make an informed decision on whether to participate in our programs.  Examples of the programs we offer include:
    1. Surveys: We may offer our customers opportunities to participate in surveys.  In exchange for participation you may be offered a financial incentive, such as a discount or a coupon.  As part of these surveys we may collect Personal Information, such as your name, preferences, experiences, beliefs, opinions, and other responses to the survey questions.  Participation in surveys is governed by the applicable terms and conditions for the survey, which will also describe any financial incentives associated with that survey and how to participate.  You can terminate participation at any time as will be explained in the survey terms.  Our good-faith estimate of the value of your Personal Information is the value of the benefit we offer to you.  We have calculated such value by using the expense related to the benefit.
    2. Contests and Sweepstakes: From time to time, we may offer incentives limited to a specific time period, such as limited-time sweepstakes and contests.  In exchange for your participation in these promotions, you may be offered a financial incentive, such as a prize.  As part of these limited-time contests or sweepstakes, we may collect your Personal Information, such as your name, email address, and phone number and use, disclose, or sell that information as described in our privacy notice, including for marketing purposes.  Participation is governed by the applicable terms and conditions for the program (e.g., Sweepstakes Rules and Prize Acceptance Agreements), which will also describe how to participate.  You can terminate participation at any time as will be explained in the program terms.  The value of your Personal Information corresponds to the value you can receive from participation (such as the value of the prize, which will be disclosed in the applicable terms), divided by the total number of participants.
    3. One-Time Promotions: In addition to the programs identified above, we may also offer you one-time percentage off coupons, discounts, or other promotions from time to time, such as when you provide us your email address and agree to receive marketing emails in exchange for a one-time coupon.  Such offers may not be available at all times.  The amount and terms of such offers will be presented to you at the time of the offer.  You can terminate participation at any time by contacting us at contact@helloheart.com.  Our good-faith estimate of the value of your Personal Information is the value of the benefit we offer to you.  We have calculated such value by using the expense related to the benefit.
    By participating in any of the above promotional programs, you agree that the benefits are reasonably related to the value of the Personal Information collected and retained.

    Participation in our promotional programs is always optional, and you can terminate program participation at any time as explained in the applicable program terms.  You can also contact us at contact@helloheart.com to unsubscribe or cancel your participation in any program.
