No mobile information will be shared or sold to third parties for promotional purposes.

We may share your information with third-party vendors, consultants, and other service providers who need access to your information to perform services on our behalf, such as payment processing, data analysis, email delivery, hosting services, customer service, and marketing assistance.

For Collaboration and Sharing Features

We may share your information with other users when you use collaboration and sharing features of our Services. For example, when you share a document with another user, we will share your name, email address, and the content of the document with that user.

For Business Transfers

We may share your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.

For Legal Purposes

We may share your information if we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to comply with laws, regulations, legal processes, or governmental requests; to enforce our Terms of Use and other agreements; to protect the rights, privacy, safety, or property of TheDocumentWizard, you, or others; and to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues.

In Aggregated or De-identified Form

We may share aggregated or de-identified information, which cannot reasonably be used to identify you, with third parties for various purposes, including to improve our Services and for business or marketing purposes.

Data Security

We take the security of your personal information seriously and use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage.

The measures we use include:

  • Encryption of sensitive information
  • Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt data in transit
  • Regular security assessments and penetration testing
  • Access controls and authentication mechanisms
  • Regular backups and disaster recovery procedures

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider:

  • The amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information
  • The potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information
  • The purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means
  • The applicable legal requirements

In some circumstances, we may anonymize your personal information (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including:

Access and Portability

You may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you and to request a copy of your personal information in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

Correction

You may have the right to request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information we hold about you.

Deletion

You may have the right to request that we delete your personal information in certain circumstances, such as when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

Cookies & Tracking

We and our third-party service providers use cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing activities on our Services and to provide you with a more personalized experience.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. We use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your device until you delete them or they expire).

We use the following types of cookies:

  • Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the operation of our Services. They enable you to navigate our Services and use their features, such as accessing secure areas.
  • Analytical/Performance Cookies: These cookies allow us to recognize and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our Services. This helps us to improve the way our Services work, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
  • Functionality Cookies: These cookies are used to recognize you when you return to our Services. This enables us to personalize our content for you, greet you by name, and remember your preferences.
  • Targeting Cookies: These cookies record your visit to our Services, the pages you have visited, and the links you have followed. We use this information to make our Services and the advertising displayed on them more relevant to your interests.

Managing Cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, since it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also stop you from saving customized settings like login information.

Do Not Track

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. These features are not yet uniform, so we do not currently respond to such signals.

Children's Privacy

Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 16. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 16, we will promptly delete that information. If you believe that we might have any information from a child under the age of 16, please contact us using the contact information provided in the "Contact Us" section below.

International Transfers

We are based in the United States and the information we collect is governed by U.S. law. If you are accessing our Services from outside the United States, please be aware that information collected through our Services may be transferred to, processed, stored, and used in the United States and other jurisdictions. Data protection laws in the U.S. and other jurisdictions may be different from those of your country of residence. Your use of our Services or provision of any information therefore constitutes your consent to the transfer to and from, processing, usage, sharing, and storage of information about you in the U.S. and other jurisdictions as set out in this Privacy Policy.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our information practices. If we make any material changes, we will notify you by email (sent to the email address specified in your account) or by means of a notice on our Services prior to the change becoming effective.
