Lew Consulting PRIVACY POLICY  

 

Updated: July 29, 2023

 

Lew Consulting (“Lew Consulting,” “we,” or “our”), recognizes the importance of your personal privacy.  Therefore, we have created this Privacy Policy so that you know how we use and disclose your information when you make it available to us.  The Privacy Policy below discloses our practices regarding data collection and usage for the website located at lewconsultingllc.com, as well as the related mobile website and the mobile application called Lew Consulting (the “App”) (collectively, the “Websites”), and the service provided thereon (the “Service”).

 

By using or accessing the Websites and the Service, you signify your agreement to be bound by this Privacy Policy. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY YOU MAY NOT ACCESS OR OTHERWISE USE OUR SERVICE OR PARTICIPATE IN OUR SERVICES.

 

Key aspects of our privacy practices described in this Privacy Policy include the following explanations:

 

• The data we collect and why we collect it;
• How we use data;
• How we share data; and
• The rights to your data.

 

Personal Data That We Collect:

 

You may be required to submit certain personal data when you register and use our Service. If you choose to withhold any personal data requested by us, it may not be possible for you to gain access to the Service and for us to respond to your query. The personal data which you may provide to us could include your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, social security number, IP address, geographic location, bank information, and information contained on a government-issued ID.

 

Non-Personal or Aggregate Information That We Collect:

 

When you access our Service, we may automatically collect non-personal data from you, such as web pages viewed, browser type, operating system, referring service, search information, device type, page views, usage and browsing habits on the Service and similar data. We may also aggregate demographic information collected from our users (such as the number of users in a particular geographical location) in a manner which does not identify any one individual.  We may also aggregate data collected offline in connection with the Service, obtain non-personal data from third party sources and develop aggregate information by anonymizing previously collected personal data.

 

It is possible at times when collecting non-personal data through automatic means that we may unintentionally collect or receive personal data that is mixed in with the non-personal data.  While we will make reasonable efforts to prevent such incidental data collection, the possibility still exists.  If you believe that we have inadvertently collected your personal data, please notify us at info@lewconsultingllc.com

  

Geo-Location Information:

When you access or use the Service, Lew Consulting may access, collect, monitor and/or remotely store “location data,” which may include GPS coordinates (including but not limited to latitude and/or longitude), IP addresses, and/or similar information regarding the actual location of your device. Location data may convey to us information about how you browse or use the Service. Location data does not collect or share any personal data about you. Location data may be used in conjunction with personal data. Some features of the Service, particularly any location-based services, may not function properly if use or availability of location data is impaired or disabled.

 

Data Usage:

 

We will only use your personal data as described below, unless you have specifically consented to another type of use, either at the time the personal data is collected from you or through some other form of consent from you or notification to you:

 

• We may share your personal data collected in connection with providing the Service.
• We may use your personal data to respond to your inquires or requests.
• We may use your personal data to send you emails from time to time about our services, but we will not provide your personal data to third parties for them to contact you directly unless otherwise permitted by this Privacy Policy or you provide your consent.
• We may share your personal data with third parties to further the purpose for which you provided such information to us (collectively, the “Third Party Vendors”). For example, we may share your information with Stripe and/or PayPal, for the purpose of processing your payments, or with our email platform, for the purpose of sending you emails. We urge you to read the privacy practices of all of our Third Party Vendors before submitting any personal data through the Service.
• We may disclose personal data as required by law or legal process.
• We may disclose personal data to investigate suspected fraud, harassment or other violations of any law, rule or regulation, or the terms or policies for our services or our sponsors.
• We may transfer your personal data in connection with the sale or merger or change of control of Lew Consulting or the division responsible for the services with which your personal data is associated.
• We may share your personal data with an affiliate of Lew Consulting who is in the same corporate family as us as long as their privacy practices are substantially similar to ours.

 

Non-personal data or aggregate information may be used by us for any purposes permitted by law and may be shared with any number of parties, provided that such information shall not specifically identify you.

 

Cookies and Similar Technologies:

 

“Cookies” are pieces of information that may be placed on your computer by a service for the purpose of facilitating and enhancing your communication and interaction with that service. Many services use cookies for these purposes.  We may use cookies (and similar items such as clear gifs, web beacons, tags, etc.) on our Service to customize your visit and for other purposes to make your visit more convenient or to enable us to enhance our Service.  We may also use and place cookies (and similar items) on your computer from our third party service providers in connection with the Service, such as an analytics provider that helps us manage and analyze Service usage, as described more fully below.  In addition, our advertisers and business partners may set cookies and similar items on your computer when you use our Service.  You may stop or restrict the placement of cookies on your computer or flush them from your browser by adjusting your web browser preferences, in which case you may still use our Service, but it may interfere with some of its functionality. Cookies and similar items are not used by us to automatically retrieve personal data from your computer without your knowledge.

 

You should be able to control how and whether cookies will be accepted by your web browser. Most browsers offer instructions on how to reset the browser to reject cookies in the “Help” section of the toolbar. If you reject our cookies, many functions and conveniences of our Services may not work properly.

 

Analytics and Conversion Tracking:

 

We use analytics services that use cookies, javascript and similar technologies to help us analyze how users use the Service. The information generated by these services about your use of the Service (including your IP address or a truncated version of your IP address) is transmitted to and stored by analytics service providers on their servers. Those service providers will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your, and other users’, use of the Service, compiling reports for us on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and Internet usage. 

 

We may collect data about your computer, including your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration and in order to create reports. This is statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual. 

We use cookies on our site for Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a web analytics tool that helps website owners understand how visitors engage with their website. Google Analytics customers can view a variety of reports about how visitors interact with their website so that they can improve it. 

Like many services, Google Analytics uses first-party cookies to track visitor interactions as in our case, where they are used to collect information about how visitors use our site. We then use the information to compile reports and to help us improve our site. 

Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive. These cookies are used to store information, such as the time that the current visit occurred, whether the visitor has been to the site before and what site referred the visitor to the web page. 

Google Analytics collects information anonymously. It reports website trends without identifying individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics without affecting how you visit our site – for more information on opting out of being tracked by Google Analytics across all websites you use, visithttps://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

We also use Google conversion tracking and/or similar services to help us understand your and other users’ use of the Service.

 

Please see https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/1722022?hl=en for more information about conversion tracking provided by Google.

 

Security:

 

The security of your personal data is very important to us. When we collect your personal data online, we use reasonable efforts to protect it from unauthorized access.  However, due to the inherent open nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that your personal data will be completely free from unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers and your use of our Service demonstrates your assumption of this risk.  We have put in place reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard the data we collect. Only those employees who need access to your data in order to perform their duties are authorized to have access to your personal data. 

We shall investigate and report data breaches within 72 hours of becoming aware of such breach. When a breach of Personal Data is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals then Lew Consulting, as Controller, will notify the affected individuals without undue delay.

Your Disclosures in Blogs and Other Social Media:

 

You should be aware that personal data which you voluntarily include and transmit online on the Service or in a publicly accessible blog, chat room, social media platform or otherwise online, or that you share in an open forum such as an in-person panel or survey, may be viewed and used by others without any restrictions.  We are unable to control such uses of your personal data, and by using the Service or any other online services you assume the risk that the personal data provided by you may be viewed and used by third parties for any number of purposes.

 

If you connect to a third party service such as Facebook or Twitter through an icon or link on the Service or otherwise link your Lew Consulting account with a third party service, we may share the contents of your post and associated information (such as your user name, the fact that your connection originated from the Service, and other relevant usage and diagnostic information) with such third party.  With your one-time consent, we may also send information about the content you watch and your activities on the Service to such third parties. Once such information is shared, the use of your information will be subject to that service’s privacy policy and this Privacy Policy will not apply.

 

Protection for Children:

 

We generally do not collect personal data from children under the age of 13.  If at any time in the future we plan to collect personal data from children under 13, such collection and use, to the extent applicable, shall, when required, be done in compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and appropriate consent from the child’s parent or guardian will be sought where required by COPPA.  When we become aware that personal data from a child under 13 has been collected without such child’s parent or guardian’s consent, we will use all reasonable efforts to delete such information from our database.

 

Changes to this Privacy Policy:

 

We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions from this Privacy Policy at any time. However, if at any time in the future we plan to use personal data in a way that materially differs from this Privacy Policy, including sharing such data with more third parties, we will email you and give you the opportunity to review the revised policy before you choose to continue using our Services.

 

User Access to Data:

 

You have the right to request access to the data we have stored on you. You can do this by contacting us at info@lewconsultingllc.com. We will make sure to provide you with a copy of the saved data particular to you. In order to comply with your request, we may ask you to verify your identity. We will fulfill your request by sending an electronic copy unless you expressly specify a different method of receipt.

You may request to have your data updated or deleted at any point by emailing us at info@lewconsultingllc.com.

 

Opt-Out Process:

 

We provide you the ability to delete your data. We store data until it is no longer necessary to provide our services or until your account is deleted – whichever comes first. This is a case-by-case determination that depends on the nature of your data, why it is collected and processed, and relevant operational needs. To delete your personal data at any time, simply click “Account Settings” in the App, then click “Remove Account.” If you have trouble deleting your personal data, please email us at info@lewconsultingllc.com.

We will not give your phone number to another party to promote their products or services directly to you without your consent or as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

Any communication or material you transmit to us by email or otherwise, including any data, questions, comments, suggestions, or the like is, and will be treated as, non-confidential and nonproprietary.  Except to the extent expressly covered by this Privacy Policy, anything you transmit or post may be used by us for any purpose, including but not limited to, reproduction, disclosure, transmission, publication, broadcast and posting. Furthermore, you expressly agree that we are free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in any communication you send to us, as well as any data developed using the content of such communication, without compensation and for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to, developing, manufacturing and marketing products and services using such information.
