Your privacy and the security of your personal information are very important to us. We want you to be as comfortable as possible visiting our Website. We are dedicated to protecting the privacy of those who visit our Website. This Privacy Policy governs the https://modernsmartcomfort.com website

Our website explains how, when and why we collect your personal information on our Website, how we protect such information, and the choices you have concerning the use of such information.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. Except as we disclose in this Privacy Policy, we will NEVER sell, share, license, trade, or rent your personal information to others.

We may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes to this Privacy Policy here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information, and whether we will disclose that information to anyone. Please refer back to this Privacy Policy on a regular basis. By using our Website or any of our features, tools or resources that we provide on our Website, including without limitation, any fee-based products or offerings (collectively, our “Online Products”), you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

WHAT INFORMATION ABOUT YOU IS COLLECTED ON OUR WEBSITE?

We collect two types of information:

  1. Personal Identifiable Information
  2. Non-Personal Identifiable Information.

 

  1. Personal Identifiable Information.

Personal identifiable information is information that identifies you or can be used to identify or contact you (“Personal Identifiable Information”). Such Personal Identifiable Information may include your name, address, email address, telephone number, age (primarily for eligibility purposes), and billing and credit card information. We may request Personal Identifiable Information from you when you register on our Website, purchase products online or in connection with other services we may make available on our Website from time to time. In all of these cases, we will collect Personal Identifiable Information from you only if you voluntarily submit such information to us. Unless you give us permission to do so, we will not sell, share, license, trade or rent your Personal Identifiable Information other than as specified in this Privacy Policy. You do not have to provide us with any Personal Identifiable Information to visit our Website. However, if you choose to withhold requested information, you may not be able to visit all sections of our Website or purchase our products. In addition, we may not be able to provide you with some of the other services we offer that are dependent upon the collection of such information.

  1. Non-Personal Identifiable Information.

When you visit our Website, we may collect information that by itself cannot be used to identify or contact you, such as IP addresses, browser types, domain names, and other anonymous statistical data involving the use of our Website (“Non-Personal Identifiable Information”). Non-Personal Identifiable Information is used to help us understand who uses our Website and to improve and market our Website in general and our products in particular.

WHERE AND WHEN IS INFORMATION COLLECTED ON OUR WEBSITE (INCLUDING THROUGH THE USE OF COOKIES)

The following is a description of the areas and/or manners in which we primarily collect information about you.

  • Membership, Follower and Subscriber Information:When a visitor signs up to be a member, follow or subscribe to the Website, we collect the sign-up information requested by the Site, which typically includes an email address.
  • Site Comments:When a visitor leaves a comment on a Site, we collect that comment, and other information that the visitor provides along with the comment, such as the visitor’s name and email address.
  • Poll and Survey Responses:When a visitor completes a poll, quiz, or other type of survey prepared by a User, we collect the visitor’s responses to those surveys, and other information that the survey requires for a poll/quiz/survey response, like an e-mail address.
  • Order and Shipment Information:If a visitor orders something (hooray!) from Our Site using our store and ecommerce features available, we may collect information to process that order, such as credit card and billing information, and an address for shipping the package along to the recipient and calculating applicable taxes. We may also use this information for other purposes on behalf of our Users–for example, to send marketing and other communications from our Users to their customers, and to provide our User with analytics information about their ecommerce site (e.g., the number of orders from particular geographic areas).
  • Other Information Entered on the Site:We may also collect other information that a visitor enters on the Site–such as a contact form submission, a search query, or Site registration.

  • Visitor Interactions:We collect information about a visitor’s interactions with a Site, including the “likes” and “ratings” left by the visitors.

  • Poll and Survey Response Information:We collect information about visitors who respond to a survey. The information that we collect typically includes IP address, browser type, operating system, user agent, and the web page last visited.
  • Information from Cookies and Other Technologies:A cookie is a string of information that a Site stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the Site each time the visitor returns.

We urge all parents or guardians to participate in their children’s exploration of the Internet, and to teach their children about protecting their personal information while online.

WHEN DOES OUR WEBSITE DISCLOSE INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES?

Except as set forth in this Privacy Policy or as specifically agreed to by you, we will not disclose any information we gather from you on our Website.

We may disclose information (including Personal Identifiable Information) about you to our Affiliates. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Affiliates” means any person or entity which directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Hsmartdevices.com, whether by ownership or otherwise. Any information relating to you that we provide to our Affiliates will be treated by those Affiliates in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

We may also disclose your information (including Personal Identifiable Information) if we believe in good faith that we are required to do so in order to comply with an applicable statute, regulation, rule or law, a subpoena, a search warrant, a court or regulatory order, or other valid legal process. We may disclose Personal Identifiable Information in special circumstances when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Terms and Conditions to protect the safety and/or security of our users or members of our Website or the general public.

We may provide to third parties information about you that does not allow you to be identified or contacted, including where such information is combined with similar information of other users of our Website. For example, we might inform third parties regarding the number of unique users who visit our Website, the demographic breakdown of our registered user of our Website, or the activities that visitors to our Website engage in while on our Website. The third parties to which we may provide this information may include potential or actual advertisers, providers of advertising services (including website tracking services), commercial partners, sponsors, licensees, researchers and other similar parties.

How We Share Visitor Information.
We may share information collected about Site visitors in the limited circumstances spelled out below:

  • Subsidiaries, Employees, and Independent Contractors: We may disclose Site visitor information to our subsidiaries, our employees, and individuals who are our independent contractors that need to know the information in order to help us provide our services to our Users or Members and their Sites, or to process the information on our behalf. We require our subsidiaries, employees, and independent contractors to follow this Privacy Notice for information about visitors that we share with them.
  • Third Party Vendors: We may share Site visitor information with third party vendors who need to know this information in order to provide their services to us and you. This group includes vendors that help us provide our services to our Users and Members and their Sites. We require Vendors to agree to privacy commitments in order to share information with them.
  • Registered Ecommerce Vendors: We may share Site visitor information with registered ecommerce vendors who need to know this information in order to provide their services to you. This group includes vendors that sell products and services on our platform to our Users and Members and their Sites. We require registered ecommerce vendors to agree to privacy commitments in order to share information with them.
  • Legal Requests: We may disclose Site visitor’s information in response to a subpoena, court order, or other governmental request.
  • To Protect Rights, Property, and Others: We may disclose Site visitor’s information when we believe in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Hsmartdevices.com, our Users, Members, third parties, or the public at large. For example, if we have a good faith belief that there is an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury, we may disclose information related to the law emergency without delay.
  • Business Transfers: In connection with any merger, sale of company assets, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company, or in the unlikely event that https://modernsmartcomfort.com goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, Site visitor information would likely be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. If any of these events were to happen, this Privacy Notice would continue to apply to Site visitor information and the party receiving this information may continue to use this information, but only consistent with this Privacy Notice.
  • Information Shared Publicly: Information that visitors choose to make public is–you guessed it–disclosed publicly. That means, of course, that information like visitor comments and “likes” are all available to others, including information about the visitor that is displayed in connection with a comment or “like” (such as a visitor’s username and Gravatar). Public information may also be indexed by search engines or used by third parties.

 

DOES THIS PRIVACY POLICY APPLY WHEN I LINK TO OTHER WEBSITES?

Our Website contains links to other websites not owned or operated by Hsmartdevices.com. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such websites. We encourage you to be aware when our Website links to other websites and to read the privacy policies or statements of each and every website. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by our Website.

IS THE INFORMATION COLLECTED ON OUR WEBSITE SECURE?

We want your information (including Personal Identifiable Information) to remain as secure as possible. We strive to provide secure transmission of your information from your computer to our servers through industry-standard techniques. We endeavor to secure the Personal Identifiable Information you provide on servers which we believe are located in controlled, secure environments, protected from unauthorized access, use, or alteration. Only employees and authorized agents, vendors and suppliers who need access to your information to perform a specific task or function are granted access to such information. In addition, all https://modernsmartcomfort.com employees must abide by this Privacy Policy and are kept up-to-date on security practices. Any employee who violates this Privacy Policy is subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination. We also require that our authorized agents, vendors and suppliers:
(i) Protect the privacy of your Personal Identifiable Information consistent with this Privacy Policy, and
(ii) Not use or disclose your Personal Identifiable Information for any purpose other than providing us with products or services for which we contracted.

Notwithstanding the above commitments to protect your information (including Personal Identifiable Information) from loss, misuse or alteration by third parties, you should be aware that there is always some risk involved in transmitting information over the Internet. There is also some risk that others could find a way to thwart our security systems. As a result, while we strive to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security and privacy of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

WHAT CHOICES DO I HAVE REGARDING THE COLLECTION, DISCLOSURE AND DISTRIBUTION OF PERSONAL IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION?

Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, we will only use Personal Identifiable Information for the purposes described above or as otherwise disclosed at the time we request such information from you. You must “opt-in” and give us permission to use your Personal Identifiable Information for any other purpose. For example, we have an “opt-in” mechanism so that those who become registered users or subscribe to our Website must give us permission to send them marketing materials and our electronic newsletter.

CAN I UPDATE OR CORRECT MY PERSONAL IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION?

You can always contact us in order to (1) update or correct your Personal Identifiable Information, (2) change your preferences with respect to communications and other information you receive from us, or (3) delete the Personal Identifiable Information maintained about you on our systems, by contacting Customer Care. Such updates, corrections, changes and deletions will not have an effect on other information that we maintain, or information that we have provided to third-parties in accordance with this Privacy Policy prior to such update, correction, change or deletion.

You should be aware that it is not technologically possible to remove each and every record of the information you have provided to us from our system. The need to back-up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss means that a copy of your Personal Identifiable Information may exist in a non-erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for us to locate. We promise that promptly after receiving your request, all Personal Identifiable Information stored in databases we actively use and other readily searchable media will be updated, corrected, changed or deleted, as appropriate, as soon as reasonably practicable.

HOW WILL I KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY?

Changes to this Privacy Policy will be posted on our Website so you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use Personal Identifiable Information in a manner significantly different from that stated in this Privacy Policy, or otherwise disclosed to you, at the time it was collected, we will notify you by email, and you will have a choice as to whether or not we use your Personal Identifiable Information in the new manner. We may also make non-significant changes to our Privacy Policy that generally will not affect our use of your Personal Identifiable Information. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, you should not use our website.

WHO DO I CONTACT IF I HAVE ANY PRIVACY QUESTIONS?
