We mainly use Cookies for the following purposes:

To deliver personalized experiences to our Subscribers and their users.
For analytic practices to help us understand our Subscribers’ and their users’ activities while using our Services.

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, please also remember that we cannot guarantee that the internet itself is 100% secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

Without limiting the foregoing, our Sites use ‘SSL’ to protect personal information. By using a browser that supports security functions, when you access our Sites and enter personal information including your name and e-mail address, and this information is transferred to our server, the information is automatically encrypted when transmitted and received by servers. If you use a browser that does not support SSL, you may not be able to access our Sites or input information.

INFORMATION FOR USERS WHO ARE CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

In addition to the other information provided in this Privacy Policy, MPulse wishes to provide the information in this Section 8 to users who are California consumers. For purposes of this Section 8, a “California consumer” is a natural person who is in California for other than a temporary purpose (or who is domiciled in California and is outside of California for only a temporary purpose), and “personal information” includes all data deemed “Personal Information” under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”).

Your Rights. In certain cases, California consumers have rights with respect to the personal information that businesses collect and hold about such consumer. Those rights include the following:

In certain circumstances, you may have the right to request the following information:

The categories of sources from which a company collects personal information;

The business or commercial purpose for which your personal information is collected or sold;

The categories of third parties with whom your personal information is shared; and

The specific pieces of personal information that a business has collected about you.

In certain circumstances, you have the right to have personal information of yours that is under the control of a business deleted.

Businesses cannot discriminate against you based on the fact that you exercise any of your rights under the CCPA. In general, this means a business cannot deny you goods or services because you have exercised your rights, charge you a different price or rate for goods or services, provide you a different level or quality of goods or services, or suggest that you will receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
MPulse is a Service Provider. MPulse is a for-profit entity that processes information on behalf of your Subscriber, meaning that it is a “Service Provider” under the CCPA. Generally, MPulse does not have an obligation to grant to you the above rights, and it will refer any inquiries that you make with us directly to your Subscriber. The foregoing notwithstanding, if MPulse reasonably believes it is legally obligated to do so, it will comply with the foregoing provisions in this Section 8.

ADDITIONAL DATA PROTECTION RIGHTS

For European residents only: In certain circumstances, you have rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016 (the “GDPR”) in relation to your personal information. These data privacy rights in many instances may not apply directly to MPulse, as we process your personal information as a data processor on behalf of our clients. Where this is the case, any request to exercise your European data privacy rights should be directed to the data controller.

With respect to any personal information collected for our own purposes, we may be considered a controller of personal information, to which the below terms apply.

Depending on the country in which you reside, you may have the following data protection rights:

To access; correct; update; port; delete; restrict; or object to our processing of your personal information.
The right to complain to a data protection authority about the collection and use of personal information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority. Contact details for data protection authorities are as follows
- EEA and UK
- Switzerland

If personal Information is collected or processed on the basis of consent, a data subject can withdraw their consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing that was conducted prior to withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

To the extent required by applicable law, we will respond to all requests we receive from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in accordance with applicable data protection laws. We may ask such individuals to verify their identity in order to help us respond efficiently to any such request.
