INTRODUCTION

WP Managed Secure (“we”, “us”, or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to maintaining the privacy and confidentiality of any personal data we collect either through WPManagedSecure.com (“Site”) or through the provision of our managed hosting services (“Services”). The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to inform you of our personal data collection, use, and processing practices. This Privacy Policy also describes the choices available to you regarding the use of, your access to, and how to update and correct your personal information. If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please feel free to contact us at the information provided below.

PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT AT YOUR DIRECTION

We may collect an individual’s information under the direction of one our customers, but we have no direct relationship with the individuals whose personal data is controlled by our customers. The use of your information collected through your use or a customer’s services shall be limited to the purpose of providing the Services for which you or that customer engaged WP Managed Secure.

Our obligations with respect to personal data for which we are the data processor, such as personal data that you may store or transfer using the Services, are defined in our agreements for use of the Services and are not included in this Privacy Policy. You remain responsible for the personal data that you collect and process and for compliance with applicable data protection laws. If you would no longer like to be contacted or if you have any questions about how one of our customers uses your personal data, please contact them directly. Additionally, we may transfer personal information to companies that help us provide our Services. Our obligations regarding transfers to third parties are covered in our agreements for use of the Services and are not included in this Privacy Policy.

PERSONAL DATA YOU PROVIDE TO US

In order for you to use our Services and other features of our Site, we will ask you for some of your personal data (e.g. contact information, name, etc.). The amount and type of information that we gather depends on the nature of the interaction. Those who purchase Services from us are asked to provide information including, as necessary, the personal and financial information required to process transactions. In each case, we collect such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with us. We do not disclose personal data other than as described below. You can always refuse to supply personal data, however, doing so may prevent you from receiving our Services and may prevent you from engaging in other activities on the Site. In no event will we ever gather sensitive personal data (e.g. health information, religious preferences, etc.) from you, and we expressly request that you not provide any such sensitive personal data to us in any free-text fields that are present on the Site.

PASSIVE COLLECTION

As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically. This information may include Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, the files viewed on our site (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data to analyze trends in the aggregate and administer the site. We use analytical software to help us understand this information. This software sends information to its licensor. Other sites and companies may also use this software. As a result, the licensor may collect information that, when aggregated by them, allows them to identify you individually. We have no responsibility for this collection and use.

COOKIES & OTHER TECHNOLOGIES ON THE SITE

We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies to analyze trends, administer the Site, track users’ movements around the Site, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. You can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level.

INFORMATION SHARING

We disclose personal data only to our employees and third parties (such as the service providers that need to know that information in order to process it on our behalf or to help provide the Services) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. These employee or third party provided services may include:

Payment processing

Providing customer service

Sending marketing communications

Conducting research and analysis

Providing cloud computing infrastructure

Some of the employees or third parties providing these services may be located outside of your home country (e.g. in the United States). By using the Site or signing up for the Services you consent to the transfer of your information to them.

We will not rent or sell personal data to anyone other than in conjunction with the sale of our business. Other than described in this Privacy Policy, we disclose personal data only when required to do so by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or other legal process. When we believe in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to (i) protect our property or other rights, protect the property or other rights of third parties, or protect the public at large; (ii) investigate fraud; or (iii) respond to a government request.

If you are our customer, we will occasionally send you emails to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or keep you up to date with what is going on at WP Managed Secure. If you send us a request (for example, via a support email or one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. We own all such feedback.

CHANGING INFORMATION

Upon request, we will provide you with details regarding whether we hold any of your personal information. If you would like to change information that we maintain about you, you may log into your account and change it. If you would like to change information that you are unable to access, you may contact us at legal@wpmanagedsecure.com or through our user portal for assistance in making your requested changes. Information covered by this Privacy Policy may be deleted upon your request, provided that such deletion may impact our ability to provide you with the use of our Services. Also, you may request that we update or correct your personal data by contacting us at legal@wpmanagedsecure.com or by writing us at: WP Managed Secure ATTN: General Counsel, 1117 State Street, Santa Barbara, California 93101. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.

We acknowledge that you have the right to access your personal information, but – with respect to the data that we collect at the direction of our customers – we have no direct relationship with the individuals whose personal data we process. An individual who seeks to access, correct, amend, or delete inaccurate data maintained by one of our customers should direct their query to that customer acting as the data controller.

We may keep your personal information and the data we process on your behalf as covered by this Privacy Policy for as long as needed to provide the Services to you or for a period of twelve months from the date you terminate your relationship with us. Additionally, we will retain this information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

ADS

Ads appearing on our Site may be delivered to you by advertising partners who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers our use of cookies and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers. However, data tracking files used by us may also be used by these advertisers and, when combined with other information held by them, be used to identify you personally.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

Although most changes are likely to be minor, we may change this Privacy Policy from time to time in our sole discretion. We encourage you to frequently check this page for any changes to our Privacy Policy. If we make a change to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by e-mail (sent to the e-mail address specified in your account, if applicable) or by means of a notice on our Site prior to the change becoming effective. All such changes are effective at the time set out in our notice. If you disagree with such a change, you may discontinue use of the Services or Site.

APPROPRIATE PROCEDURES

We have put in place reasonable measures and appropriate procedures for implementing these policies and for safeguarding the information we collect from you. However, we cannot guarantee that personal data we collect will never be disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this Privacy Policy.

We follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once it is received. If you have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can contact us at info@wpmanagedsecure.com.
