     • Why we collect it;

     • How we use it; and

Our Policy also does not cover the information practices of other companies and organizations who advertise our Services, and who may use cookies, pixel tags and other technologies to serve and offer relevant ads. We encourage you to read the privacy statements of each and every external application, website and or service that collects personal information from or about you.

We reserve the right to change, add or remove any portion of this Policy at any time by updating this page. You are responsible for periodically visiting this page to review any changes to this Policy since your last visit. You can easily tell whether there have been any changes since your last visit by viewing the “Last Modified” date at the top of the Policy, so please visit this page frequently. We will notify you by email if we subsequently decide to use your personal information in a different way than we told you when you provided it so that you can decide whether we can use your personal information in this new way. Your use of the Services or this Site after we post any changes to this Policy constitutes your express acceptance of, and consent to, its terms.

          • Liability. We may be liable for the transfer of personal data to third parties.

INTERNET BASED ADVERTISING AND THIRD PARTY SITES

Third parties that are unaffiliated with us may also collect information about you, including tracking your browsing history, when you use our Platform. We do not have control over these  third party collection practices and advise you to adjust the settings of your browsers or install plug-ins and add-ins if you wish to minimize these third-party collections.

Certain websites you visit may provide options regarding advertisements you receive. For more information or to opt out of certain online behavioral advertising, please visit http://www.aboutads.info.

Some browsers support a “Do Not Track” feature, which is intended to be a signal to websites that you do not wish to be tracked across different websites you visit. Our Platform does not currently change the way they operate based upon detection of a Do Not Track or similar signal.

Please note that we cannot control how third party websites or online services you visit through our Platform respond to Do Not Track signals. Check the privacy policies of those third parties for information on their privacy practices.

THE PRIVACY OF MINORS

This Site is not intended for children or minors, and we do not knowingly collect, use or disclose information of minors who are under the age of eighteen (18). If you believe we may have information about a minor who is under the age of 18, please notify us immediately at support@buildbunker.com

If you are under the age of eighteen, you are not permitted to submit any information to us. In an instance where such information is collected, it will be presumed purely accidental and unintentional.

PROTECTION OF INFORMATION

We are committed to protecting your information from unauthorized access, use and disclosure. We will exercise reasonable care, including implementing necessary administrative, technical and physical controls to protect your information.

Although we take steps to protect personal information, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. We will not be responsible or liable for damage, pecuniary or otherwise, caused by a third party’s unauthorized access to or use of your personal information. Further, we will not be responsible for maintaining or storing your personal information or other User Content for any particular time.

DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION AND YOUR OPT-OUT RIGHTS

We offer certain choices about how we communicate with you and what information we collected from you. You can choose whether or not to disclose certain personal information when we ask you to do so, but some Services or functions may be more difficult or impossible to use if you choose not to disclose certain Personal Information, and your experience in using the Services will not be as personally tailored. Certain Personal Information must be disclosed before you will be able to access any part of the Services.

You can, at any time, opt-out of us (i) disclosing your personal information to third parties that are not agents of, or providers of service to, us, or (ii) using of your personal information for direct marketing purposes by contacting us at support@buildbunker.com or using the opt-out mechanisms (if any) contained in the Services. To opt out of further communications from a marketing partner or sponsor with whom your information has already been shared, please contact that partner directly. Please note that, even if you have opted out of sharing with third parties, your personal information may still be disclosed to third parties to the extent that you provide it to third parties using the Services (e.g., by posting it using functionality in the Services). If you chose to opt out, we may still send you non-marketing emails. Non-marketing emails include emails about your accounts and our business dealings with you.

ACCESSING, CORRECTING, UPDATING AND REMOVING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We acknowledge the right of EU and Swiss individuals to access their personal data. If your personal information changes, or if you no longer wish to receive non-account specific information from us, you can access, correct, update and/or remove personal information about you that we have collected by emailing your request to us at support@buildbunker.com or by using the functionality contained in the Services (if any). When updating your personal information, we may ask you to verify your identity before we act on your request. We may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup systems). Where we can provide information access and correction, we will do so for free, except where it would require a disproportionate effort. We seek to protect information from accidental or malicious destruction. Because of this, after you delete information from our services, we may not immediately delete residual copies from our active servers and may not remove information from our backup systems. Unless you request that we remove your personal information, we will retain it for as long as your account and use of the Services remain active and for a period of time after that in order to provide you with the unique, personalized experiences generated by the Services. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits users that are residents of California to request certain information regarding our disclosures of personal information to third parties for such third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Please email us at support@buildbunker.com or write us at the address above to submit your request.

DEFINITIONS

Application Data Caches. An application data cache is a data repository on a device. It can, for example, enable a web application to run without an internet connection and improve the performance of the application by enabling faster loading of content. 

Beacons. See pixel tags. 

Browsers. A program or application with a graphical user interface for displaying HTML files, webpages and used to navigate the internet. Examples of browsers include Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer and Firefox.

Browser Web Storage. Browser web storage enables websites to store data in a browser on a device. When used in “local storage” mode, it enables data to be stored across sessions (for example, so that the data is retrievable even after the browser has been closed and reopened). One technology that facilitates web storage is HTML 5.

Cookies. A cookie is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to your computer when you visit a website. When you visit the website again, the cookie allows that site to recognize your browser. Cookies may store user preferences and other information. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some website features or services may not function properly without cookies.

IP Addresses. Every device connected to the Internet is assigned a number known as an Internet Protocol (IP) Address. These numbers are usually assigned in geographic blocks. An IP address can often be used to identify the location from which a device is connecting to the Internet.

Operating System. A software that supports the basic functions of a computer or mobile device. Operating Systems can execute applications, schedule tasks, and control peripherals. Examples of operating systems include Windows, IOS, Android and Linux.

Personal Information. This is information which you provide to us that personally identifies you, such as your name, email address or billing information, or other data which can be reasonably linked to such information by us, such as information we associate with your user account.

Pixel Tags. A pixel tag is a type of technology placed on a website or within the body of an email for the purpose of tracking activity on websites, or when emails are opened or accessed, and is often used in combination with cookies.

Scripts. An automated series of instructions or computer code carried out in a specific order for a specific function.

Unique Device Identifiers. A unique device identifier (sometimes called a Universally Unique ID or UUID) is a string of characters that is incorporated into a device by its manufacturer and can be used to uniquely identify that device (for example an IMEI-number of a mobile phone). Different device identifiers vary in how permanent they are, whether they can be reset by users, and how they can be accessed. A given device may have several different unique device identifiers. Unique device identifiers can be used for various purposes, including security and fraud detection, syncing services such as a user’s email inbox, remembering the user’s preferences and providing relevant advertising.
