1. What Information Do We Collect

Personal information that you voluntarily provide us.

Information, other than non-personal information, that we collect which can be used to identify an individual (“personal information”). This would include your first name, last name, personal address, phone number, email address, your location information, your course details, certain usage information (defined below), such as IP address (if defined as personal information by applicable laws and regulations - for details see “usage information” below).

Non-personal information we collect when you access or use our Platform.

Non-personal information is information that does not necessarily identify you as an individual (“non-personal information”). This may include a variety of information, including, but not limited to, Usage information (defined below) and information related to your interaction with our Platform.

“Usage information” —information about an individual’s online activity that, by itself, does not identify the individual, such as: your activity in using our Platform (for example, terms you search for, videos you watch, your views and interactions with content and ads, purchase activity, people with whom you communicate or share content with, and activity on third-party sites and apps that use our services), technical information, including your browser type, service provider, IP address (IP address, by itself, may or may not identify you as an individual under the applicable laws and therefore this type of information may also be listed here or under subsection 1.1 “Personal information that you voluntarily provide us” above), operating system and web pages visited, and metadata, which means information related to items you made available through the Platform, such as the date or time of taking a photograph or video which you shared. We and our third-party partners may use various technologies to collect and store usage information in connection with our Platform. These may include things like cookies, other similar technologies or data collection tools (such as pixels, web beacons, and server logs), which we collectively refer to as “information collection tools.”

Generally, we do not consider usage information as personal information because usage information by itself does not usually identify an individual. Personal information and usage information, as well as different types of usage information, may be linked together and, once linked, may identify an individual. Some usage information may be personal information under applicable law and will be treated as such. If we do combine non-personal information with personal information, the combined information will be treated as personal information for as long as it remains combined.

We may collect different information from or about you depending on how you use the Platform. Below are some examples to help you better understand the information we collect.

2.2 Cookies and Information Collection Tools

As detailed in our Cookie Notice below, TheraHive and service providers acting on our behalf (like Google Analytics and third party advertisers) use server log files and automated information collection tools like cookies, tags, scripts, customized links, device, or browser fingerprints, and web beacons (together, “information Collection Tools”) when you access and use the Platform. These information Collection Tools automatically track and collect certain System information and Usage information (as detailed in Section 1.2) when you use the Platform. In some cases, we tie information gathered through those information Collection Tools to other information that we collect as described in this Privacy Notice. By using the Platform you consent to the use, storing, and accessing of your information by our use of our or third parties’ data collection tools in accordance with the terms of our Cookie Notice.

We use cookies (small files that websites send to your device to uniquely identify your browser or device or to store information in your browser) for things like analyzing your use of the Platform, personalizing your experience, making it easier to log into the Platform, and recognizing you when you return. We use web beacons (small objects that allow us to measure the actions of visitors and users using the Platform) for things like identifying whether a page was visited, identifying whether an email was opened, and advertising more efficiently by excluding current users from certain promotional messages meant for new users or identifying the source of a new mobile app download.

TheraHive uses the following types of cookies:

  • Preferences: cookies that remember information about your browser and preferred settings that affect the appearance and behavior on the Platform (like your preferred language).

  • Functional: cookies that store functional settings (like the volume level you set for video playback).
  • Session: cookies that track your interactions with the Platform to help us improve the Platform and your browsing experience, remember your login details, and enable processing of your course purchases. These are strictly necessary for the Platform to work properly, so if you disable them then certain functionalities will break or be unavailable.

You can set your web browser to alert you about attempts to place cookies on your computer, limit the types of cookies you allow, or refuse cookies altogether. If you do, you may not be able to use some or all features of the Platform, and your experience may be different or less functional.

Some of the third-party partners who provide certain features on our Platform may also use Local Storage Objects (also known as flash cookies or LSOs) to collect and store information. 

For more information on our cookie policy refer to the Cookie Notice (section 11) below.

2.3 Analytics

We use third-party browser and mobile analytics services like Google Analytics on the Platform. These services use information Collection Tools to help us analyze your use of the Platform, including information like the third-party website you arrive from, how often you visit, events within the Platform, usage and performance information, and where the application was downloaded from. We use this information to improve the Platform, better understand how the Platform performs on different devices, provide information that may be of interest to you, to engage in auditing, research, or reporting, assist with fraud prevention, and provide certain features to you.

The ads may be based on things we know about you, like your Usage information and System information (as detailed in Section 1), and things that these ad service providers know about you based on their tracking information. The ads can be based on your recent activity or activity over time and across other sites and services, and may be tailored to your interests.

Depending on the types of advertising services we use, they may place cookies or other tracking technologies on your computer, phone, or other device to collect information about your use of the Platform, and may access those tracking technologies in order to serve these tailored advertisements to you. To help deliver tailored advertising, we may provide these service providers with a hashed, anonymized version of your email address (in a non-human-readable form) and content that you share publicly on the Platform.

When using mobile applications, you may also receive tailored in-app advertisements.

We will retain your Personal Information for as long as is necessary to provide you with the services that you have requested from us or for as long as the law otherwise permits and obligates us.

To determine the appropriate retention period for your 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, minimum required retention period prescribed by law or recommended as best practice, the period during which a claim can be made with respect to an agreement or other matter, whether the personal information has been aggregated or pseudonymized, and other relevant criteria.

6. Security

To help protect the privacy of Personal Information you transmit through use of our Platform, we maintain physical, technical and administrative safeguards. When you provide your payment information to us, this information is stored on our third-party provider’s secure servers. Our third-party provider uses encryption technology to ensure safeguards are in place. We have appropriate security measures to restrict personal information from being accidentally lost, or used, or accessed unlawfully.

We use appropriate security based on the type and sensitivity of information being stored. We follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. As with any internet-enabled system, there is always a risk of unauthorized access, so it’s important to protect your password and to contact us if you suspect any unauthorized access to your account.

TheraHive takes appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of your personal information that we collect and store. These measures vary based on the type and sensitivity of the information. Unfortunately, no system can be 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee that communications between you and TheraHive, the Platform, or any information provided to us in connection with the information we collect through the Platform, will be free from unauthorized access by third parties. Your password is an important part of our security system, and it is your responsibility to protect it. You should not share your password with any third party, and if you believe your password or account has been compromised, you should change it immediately and contact privacy@therahive.com with any concerns. We urge you to be careful about giving out personal or private information in public areas of the Platform. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Platform.

  • The right to ask us not to process your personal information, erase your information and stop using it for marketing purposes;

To submit your request, send an email to privacy@therahive.com with the phrase “California Shine the Light” and include your mailing address, state of residence, and email address.
  • California Do-Not-Track (DNT) disclosure requirements- Since the internet industry is still working on Do Not Track standards, solutions, and implementations, we do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated Do Not Track signals. (DNT is a web browser setting which you may set to "on" or "off." When turned on, you instruct the browser to disable tracking of your web browsing activities. When you leave the DNT setting disabled in your web browser,  you tell the websites you visit that you agree to have your activity tracked.)

As of now, this Privacy Notice lists down the categories of information we collect and the sources of that information. We explain how we use your information. We explain when we may share your information with our affiliates and third parties. We do not sell your personal information.

To transfer data from the EEA to other countries, such as the United States, we will comply with legal frameworks that establish an equivalent level of protection with that under European Union/UK law.

Information may also be processed outside of Switzerland and the EEA by our service providers, including to process transactions, facilitate payments, and provide support services as described in Section 4. We have entered into information processing agreements with our service providers that restrict and regulate their processing of your information on our behalf. By submitting your information or using our Platform, you consent to this transfer, storage, and processing by TheraHive and its processors.

The European Commission has approved the use of model contract clauses as a means of ensuring adequate protection when transferring data outside of the EEA. By incorporating model contract clauses into a contract established between the parties transferring data, personal data is considered protected when transferred outside the EEA or the UK to countries which are not covered by an adequacy decision. We may also rely on these model contract clauses for data transfers.

We value your privacy. This cookie notice (“Cookie Notice”) explains what cookies are and how we use them. Please read this Cookie Notice together with our privacy notice (“Privacy Notice”).

By continuing to browse our website, clicking on “Accept” or “OK” on or closing our cookie banner/message, you agree that we can store and access cookies and other data collection tools as described in this policy unless you have disabled them.


What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored by your browser as you browse the internet. They can be used to collect, store, and share information about your activities across websites, including on TheraHive Platform. Cookies also allow us to remember things about your visits to TheraHive Platform, like your preferred language, and to make the Platform easier to use.

The type of cookies we use

There are different types of cookies that we use:

“Persistent Cookie” is stored as a file on your computer and it remains there when you close your web browser. This cookie is used to improve your experience of using the website, for example, to store your preferences for your next visit to our website. This cookie is activated again once you visit the website that created that particular cookie. A persistent cookie remains in the browser's subfolder for the duration period set within the cookie's file.

“Session Cookies” is only stored temporarily on your computer during your web session. Session cookies are temporary and deleted from your machine when you close your web browser. This cookie is used to help us track internet usage and other information about an individual’s online activity.

“First party Cookies” are cookies that belong to us and that we place on your device through our website. The function of this type of cookie is to retain your preferences for our website. These cookies may be either Session or Persistent cookies.

“Third-party Cookies” are cookies that another party places on your device through our website. We may use these cookies to assist us by providing statistical and analytics information. An example of these is Google Analytics. These cookies are usually Persistent cookies. For more information on how third-party companies collect and use information on our behalf, please refer to their privacy policies.


Category of cookies

The cookies used on our Platform are categorized as follows:

Category 1 — Strictly Necessary/Technical/Security Cookies

These cookies are essential to enable you to browse around our website and use their features. Without these cookies, the Platform cannot be used as intended. For instance, these cookies are remembering your decision or action on our website and thus enabling features of services such as having a saved cart with courses that you wish to enroll in and e-billing. Your consent is not required for strictly necessary cookies.

Category 2 — Performance/Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us or our third-party service providers to collect information about how you interact with the Platform and to enhance the user experience. For example, these cookies track what pages you go to the most. This data may be used to help optimize the Platform and make them easier for you to navigate the Platform. These cookies are also used to let affiliates know if you came to the Platform from an affiliate and if your visit resulted in the use or purchase of a product or service from us. These cookies collect anonymous information and do not identify you as an individual. All information these cookies collect is aggregated.

Category 3 — Functionality/Preferences Cookies

These cookies allow the Platform to remember choices you make while browsing. For instance, we may store your geographic location and your language choices so that we can show you our website localized for your area. They may also be used to keep track of what featured products or videos have been viewed to avoid repetition. These cookies collect anonymous information. The information these cookies collect will not personally identify you and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

Category 4 - Targeting (Social Media & Advertising) cookies and other technologies that are similar to cookies. These cookies provide you with targeted advertising and track the efficiency of our advertising campaigns, both on our services and on other websites or mobile apps. These cookies can be First-party Cookies or Third-party Cookies. Cookies generated by third-party service providers have their own privacy policies and may use their cookies to target advertising to you on other websites based on your visit to the Platform.

Categories 2 through 4 are not necessary for the adequate function of the Platform you use; instead, these cookies are intended for your convenience.

Why does TheraHive use cookies and similar technologies?

We use cookies and similar technologies like web beacons, pixel tags, or local shared objects (“flash cookies”), to deliver, measure, and improve our services in various ways. We use these cookies when you visit our website and services through a browser. As we adopt additional technologies, we may also gather additional information through other methods.


We use cookies for the following purposes:

Authentication and security

  • To log you into TheraHive Platform
  • To protect your security
  • To help detect and fight spam, abuse, and other activities that violate TheraHive’s agreements

For example, cookies help authenticate your access to TheraHive Services and prevent unauthorized parties from accessing your accounts.


Preferences

  • To remember information about your browser and your preferences
  • To remember your settings and other choices you’ve made

For example, cookies help us remember your preferred language or the country you’re in, so we can provide content in your preferred language without asking each time you visit.


Analytics and Research

  • To help us improve and understand how people use TheraHive Platform

For example, cookies help us test different versions of TheraHive to see which features or content users prefer, web beacons help us determine which email messages are opened, and cookies help us see how you interact with TheraHive’s Platform, like the links you click on.

We also work with analytics partners, including Google Analytics, who use cookies and similar technologies to help us analyze how users use the Platform, including by noting the sites from which you arrive. Those service providers may either collect that information themselves or we may disclose it to them.

You can opt out of some of these services through tools like the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.


Advertising

  • To provide you with more relevant advertising

Please note that where advertising technology is integrated into the Platform, you may still receive advertising on other websites and applications, but it will not be tailored to your interests. To learn more about targeting and advertising cookies and how you can opt out, visit www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/index.html, or if you’re located in the European Union, visit the Your Online Choices site.

When using mobile applications you may also receive tailored in-app advertisements. Apple iOS, Android OS, and Microsoft Windows each provide its own instructions on how to control in-app tailored advertising. For other devices and operating systems, you should review your privacy settings or contact your platform operator.


What are your privacy options?

You have a number of options to control or limit how we and our partners use cookies:

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can change your browser settings to decline cookies by consulting your browser’s support articles. If you decide to decline cookies, please note that you may not be able to sign in, customize, or use some interactive features in the Platform.

Flash cookies operate differently than browser cookies, so your browser’s cookie-management tools may not remove them.

To get information and control cookies used for tailored advertising from participating companies, see the consumer opt-out pages for the Network Advertising Initiative and Digital Advertising Alliance, or if you’re located in the European Union, visit the Your Online Choices site. To opt out of Google Analytics’ display advertising or customize Google Display Network ads, visit the Google Ads Settings page.
