You can control how much of your information social media websites make

or whose products or services we think may interest you. We may also
share it with our current and future affiliated companies and business
partners, and if we are involved in a merger, asset sale or other
business reorganization, we may also share or transfer your personal

it may be used to estimate general location and other technographics
such as connection speed, whether you have visited the website in a

may aggregate information about our advertising and what you see on the
website and then provide auditing, research and reporting for us and

our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate in order to
respond to claims, legal process (including subpoenas), to protect our

court orders, laws, rules and regulations.

Improve Your Copy Writing will collect personal information that you
submit to us. We may also receive personal information about you from
third parties as described above.
How Do We Use Your Email Address?
By submitting your email address on this website, you agree to receive
emails from us. You can cancel your participation in any of these email
lists at any time by clicking on the opt-out link or other unsubscribe
option that is included in the respective email. We only send emails to
people who have authorised us to contact them, either directly, or
through a third party. We do not send unsolicited commercial emails,
because we hate spam as much as you do. By submitting your email
address, you also agree to allow us to use your email address for
customer audience targeting on sites like Facebook, where we display
custom advertising to specific people who have opted-in to receive
communications from us. Email addresses submitted only through the
order processing page will be used for the sole purpose of sending you
information and updates pertaining to your order. If, however, you have
provided the same email to us through another method, we may use it for
any of the purposes stated in this Policy. Note: If at any time you
would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, we include
detailed unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of each email.
How Long Do We Keep Your Information?
We keep your information only so long as we need it to provide Improve
Your Copy Writing to you and fulfill the purposes described in this
policy. This is also the case for anyone that we share your information
with and who carries out services on our behalf. When we no longer need
to use your information and there is no need for us to keep it to
comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we’ll either remove it
from our systems or depersonalize it so that we can't identify you.
How Do We Protect Your Information?
We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of
your personal information when you place an order or enter, submit, or
access your personal information. We offer the use of a secure server.
All supplied sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our Payment
gateway providers database only to be accessible by those authorised
with special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep
the information confidential. After a transaction, your private
information (credit cards, social security numbers, financials, etc.)
is never kept on file. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the
absolute security of any information you transmit to Improve Your Copy
Writing or guarantee that your information on the Service may not be
accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by a breach of any of our
physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.
Could my information be transferred to other countries?
Improve Your Copy Writing is incorporated in Australia. Information
collected via our website, through direct interactions with you, or
from use of our help services may be transferred from time to time to
our offices or personnel, or to third parties, located throughout the
world, and may be viewed and hosted anywhere in the world, including
countries that may not have laws of general applicability regulating
the use and transfer of such data. To the fullest extent allowed by
applicable law, by using any of the above, you voluntarily consent to
the trans-border transfer and hosting of such information.
Is the information collected through the Improve Your Copy Writing Service secure?
We take precautions to protect the security of your information. We
have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to help safeguard,
prevent unauthorised access, maintain data security, and correctly use
your information. However, neither people nor security systems are
foolproof, including encryption systems. In addition, people can commit
intentional crimes, make mistakes or fail to follow policies.
Therefore, while we use reasonable efforts to protect your personal
information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If applicable
law imposes any non-disclaimable duty to protect your personal
information, you agree that intentional misconduct will be the
standards used to measure our compliance with that duty.
Can I update or correct my information?
The rights you have to request updates or corrections to the
information Improve Your Copy Writing collects depend on your
relationship with Improve Your Copy Writing. Personnel may update or
correct their information as detailed in our internal company
employment policies.
Customers have the right to request the restriction of certain uses and
disclosures of personally identifiable information as follows. You can
contact us in order to (1) update or correct your personally
identifiable information, (2) change your preferences with respect to
communications and other information you receive from us, or (3) delete
the personally identifiable information maintained about you on our
systems (subject to the following paragraph), by cancelling your
account. Such updates, corrections, changes and deletions will have no
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. To protect your
privacy and security, we may take reasonable steps (such as requesting
a unique password) to verify your identity before granting you profile
access or making corrections. You are responsible for maintaining the
secrecy of your unique password and account information at all times.
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 information may exist in a
non-erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for us to
locate. Promptly after receiving your request, all personal information
stored in databases we actively use, and other readily searchable media
will be updated, corrected, changed or deleted, as appropriate, as soon
as and to the extent reasonably and technically practicable.
If you are an end user and wish to update, delete, or receive any
information we have about you, you may do so by contacting the
organisation of which you are a customer.
Sale of Business
We reserve the right to transfer information to a third party in the
event of a sale, merger or other transfer of all or substantially all
of the assets of Improve Your Copy Writing or any of its Corporate
Affiliates (as defined herein), or that portion of Improve Your Copy
Writing or any of its Corporate Affiliates to which the Service
relates, or in the event that we discontinue our business or file a
petition or have filed against us a petition in bankruptcy,
reorganisation or similar proceeding, provided that the third party
agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Affiliates
We may disclose information (including personal information) about you
to our Corporate Affiliates. For purposes of this Privacy Policy,

information relating to you that we provide to our Corporate Affiliates
will be treated by those Corporate Affiliates in accordance with the
terms of this Privacy Policy.

Information about General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
We may be collecting and using information from you if you are from the
European Economic Area (EEA), and in this section of our Privacy Policy
we are going to explain exactly how and why is this data collected, and
how we maintain this data under protection from being replicated or
used in the wrong way.
What is GDPR?
GDPR is an EU-wide privacy and data protection law that regulates how
EU residents' data is protected by companies and enhances the control
the EU residents have, over their personal data.
The GDPR is relevant to any globally operating company and not just the
EU-based businesses and EU residents. Our customers’ data is important
irrespective of where they are located, which is why we have
implemented GDPR controls as our baseline standard for all our
operations worldwide.
What is personal data?
Any data that relates to an identifiable or identified individual. GDPR
covers a broad spectrum of information that could be used on its own,
or in combination with other pieces of information, to identify a
person. Personal data extends beyond a person’s name or email address.
Some examples include financial information, political opinions,
genetic data, biometric data, IP addresses, physical address, sexual
orientation, and ethnicity.
The Data Protection Principles include requirements such as:
-Personal data collected must be processed in a fair, legal, and
transparent way and should only be used in a way that a person would
reasonably expect.
-Personal data should only be collected to fulfil a specific
purpose and it should only be used for that purpose. Organizations must
specify why they need the personal data when they collect it.
-Personal data should be held no longer than necessary to fulfil its purpose.
-People covered by the GDPR have the right to access their own
personal data. They can also request a copy of their data, and that
their data be updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another
organization.
Why is GDPR important?
GDPR adds some new requirements regarding how companies should protect
individuals' personal data that they collect and process. It also
raises the stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement and imposing
greater fines for breach. Beyond these facts it's simply the right
thing to do. At Improve Your Copy Writing we strongly believe that your
data privacy is very important and we already have solid security and
privacy practices in place that go beyond the requirements of this new
regulation.
Individual Data Subject's Rights - Data Access, Portability and Deletion
We are committed to helping our customers meet the data subject rights
requirements of GDPR. Improve Your Copy Writing processes or stores all
personal data in fully vetted, DPA compliant vendors. We do store all
conversation and personal data for up to 6 years unless your account is
deleted. In which case, we dispose of all data in accordance with our
Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, but we will not hold it longer
than 60 days.
We are aware that if you are working with EU customers, you need to be
able to provide them with the ability to access, update, retrieve and
remove personal data. We got you! We've been set up as self service
from the start and have always given you access to your data and your
customers data. Our customer support team is here for you to answer any
questions you might have about working with the API.
California Residents
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) requires us to disclose
categories of Personal Information we collect and how we use it, the
categories of sources from whom we collect Personal Information, and
the third parties with whom we share it, which we have explained above.
We are also required to communicate information about rights California
residents have under California law. You may exercise the following
rights:
-Right to Know and Access. You may submit a verifiable request
for information regarding the: (1) categories of Personal Information
we collect, use, or share; (2) purposes for which categories of
Personal Information are collected or used by us; (3) categories of
sources from which we collect Personal Information; and (4) specific
pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.
-Right to Equal Service. We will not discriminate against you if you exercise your privacy rights.
-Right to Delete. You may submit a verifiable request to close
your account and we will delete Personal Information about you that we
have collected.
-Request that a business that sells a consumer's personal data, not sell the consumer's personal data.
If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you
would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us.
We do not sell the Personal Information of our users.
For more information about these rights, please contact us.
Contact Us
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
