We believe you should always know what data we collect from you and how we use it, and that you should have meaningful control over both. We want to empower you to make the best decisions about the information that you share with us.
That’s the basic purpose of this Privacy Policy.
You should read this policy in full, but here are a few key things we hope you take away from it:
We require certain information to provide our services to you. For example, you must have an account in order to upload or share content on Entrepreneurship Corner. When you choose to share the information below with us, we collect and use it to operate our services.
You don’t have to create an account to use some of our service features, such as searching and viewing public Entrepreneurship Corner profiles, listings or watching a broadcast on Periscope’s website. If you do choose to create an account, you must provide us with some personal data so that we can provide our services to you. On Entrepreneurship Corner this includes a display name (for example, “Danny’s Fitment Centre”), a username, a password, and an email address or phone number. Your display name and username are always public, but you can use either your real name or a pseudonym. If you choose to create a professional account, you must also provide us with your professional category, and may provide us with additional information, including street address, contact email address, and contact phone number, all of which will always be public.
Most activity on Entrepreneurship Corner is public, including your part of private information, your display picture, information posted by account on other business listings, and you’re Listings and certain information about your comments like the date, time, and user name. You also may choose to publish your location in your listings or your Entrepreneurship Corner profile.
You are responsible for posts and other information you provide through our services, and you should think carefully about what you make public, especially if it is sensitive information. If you update your public information on Entrepreneurship Corner, such as by deleting a listing or deactivating your account, we will reflect your updated content on entrepreneurshipcorner.com, Entrepreneurship Corner for iOS, and Entrepreneurship Corner for Android.
By publicly posting content, you are directing us to disclose that information as broadly as possible, including through our APIs, and directing those accessing the information through our APIs to do the same. To facilitate the fast global dissemination of listings to people around the world, we use technology like application programming interfaces (APIs) and embeds to make that information available to websites, apps, and others for their use – for example, displaying listings on a website or analyzing what people say on Entrepreneurship Corner. We generally make this content available in limited quantities for free and charge licensing fees for large-scale access. We have standard terms that govern how this data can beused, and a compliance program to enforce these terms. But these individuals and companies are not affiliated with Entrepreneurship Corner, and their offerings may not reflect updates you make on Entrepreneurship Corner. For more information about how we make public data on Entrepreneurship Corner available to users, email entrepreneurshipcorner.com.
We use your contact information, such as your email address or phone number, to authenticate your account and keep it – and our services – secure, and to help prevent spam, fraud, and abuse. Subject to your settings, we also use contact information to enable certain account features (for example, for login verification), to send you information about our services, and to personalize our services, including ads. If you provide us with your phone number, you agree to receive text messages from Entrepreneurship Corner to that number as your country’s laws allow. Entrepreneurship Corner also uses your contact information to market to you as your country’s laws allow, and to help others find your account if your settings permit, including through third- party services and client applications. You can use your settings for email and mobile notifications to control notifications you receive from Entrepreneurship Corner. You can also unsubscribe from a notification by following the instructions contained within the notification or here.
We provide certain features that let you communicate more privately or control who sees your content. For example, you can use Direct Messages to have non-public conversations on Entrepreneurship Corner, protect your listings, or host private broadcasts on Periscope. When you communicate with others by sending or receiving Direct Messages, we will store and process your communications and information related to them. This includes link scanning for malicious content, link shortening to info@entrepreneurshipcorner.com, detection of spam, abuse and prohibited images, and use of reported issues. We also use information about whom you have communicated
We share the content of your Direct Messages with the people you’ve sent them to; we do not use them to serve you ads. Note that if you interact in a way that would ordinarily be public with Entrepreneurship Corner content shared with you via Direct Message, for instance by bookmarking a listing, those interactions will be public. When you use features like Direct Messages to communicate, remember that recipients have their own copy of your communications on Entrepreneurship Corner – even if you listings your copy of those messages from your account – which they may duplicate, store, or re-share.
You may provide us with payment information, including your credit or debit card number, card expiration date, CVV code, and billing address, in order to purchase advertising or other offerings provided as part of our services. If you make a payment or send money using Entrepreneurship Corner features or services, including through an intermediary, we may receive information about your transaction such as when it was made or when a subscription is set to expire or auto-renew.
Your Privacy and safety settings let you decide:
We receive certain information when you use our services or other websites or mobile applications that include our content, and from third parties. Like the information you share with us, we use the data below to operate our services.
We require information about your signup and current location, which we get from signals such as your IP address or device settings, to securely and reliably set up and maintain your account and to provide our services to you.
In order to operate our services, we keep track of how you interact with links across our services. This includes links in emails we send you and links in Listings that appear on other websites or mobile applications.
If you click on an external link or ad on our services, that advertiser or website operator might figure out that you came from Entrepreneurship Corner or Periscope, along with other information associated with the ad you clicked such as characteristics of the audience it was intended to reach. They may also collect other personal data from you, such as cookie identifiers or your IP address.
A cookie is a small piece of data that is stored on your computer or mobile device. Like many websites, we use cookies and similar technologies to collect additional website usage data and to operate our services. Cookies are not required for many parts of our services such as searching and looking at public profiles. Although most web browsers automatically accept cookies, many browsers’ settings can be set to decline cookies or alert you when a website is attempting to place a cookie on your computer. However, some of our services may not function properly if you disable cookies. When your browser or device allows it, we use both session cookies and persistent cookies to better understand how you interact with our services, to monitor aggregate usage patterns, and to personalize and otherwise operate our services such as by providing account security, personalizing the content we show you including ads, and remembering your language preferences. We do not support the Do Not Track browser option. You can learn more about how we use cookies and similar technologies here.
We receive information when you view content on or otherwise interact with our services, which we refer to as “Log Data,” even if you have not created an account. For example, when you visit our websites, sign into our services, interact with our email notifications, use your account to authenticate to a third-party service, or visit a third-party service that includes Entrepreneurship Corner content, we may receive information about you. This Log Data includes information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, the referring web page, pages visited, location, your mobile carrier, device information (including device and application IDs), search terms (including those not submitted as queries), and cookie information. We also receive Log Data when you click on, view, or interact with links on our services, including when you install another application through Entrepreneurship Corner. We use Log Data
to operate our services and ensure their secure, reliable, and robust performance. For example, we use Log Data to protect the security of accounts and to determine what content is popular on our services. We also use this data to improve the content we show you, including ads and to improve the effectiveness of our own marketing.
We may receive information about you from third parties who are not our ad partners, such as others on Entrepreneurship Corner, partners who help us evaluate the safety and quality of content on our platform, our corporate affiliates, and other services you link to your Entrepreneurship Corner account.
You may choose to connect your Entrepreneurship Corner account to accounts on another service, and that other service may send us information about your account on that service. We use the information we receive to provide you features like cross-posting or cross-service authentication, and to operate our services. For integrations that Entrepreneurship Corner formally supports, you may revoke this permission at any time from your application settings; for other integrations, please visit the other service you have connected to Entrepreneurship Corner.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Privacy Policy or controls we may otherwise offer to you, we may preserve, use, share, or disclose your personal data or other safety data if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request; to protect the safety of any person; to protect the safety or integrity of our platform, including to help prevent spam, abuse, or malicious actors on our services, or to explain why we have removed content or accounts from our services; to address fraud, security, or technical issues; or to protect our rights or property or the rights or property of those who use our services. However, nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to limit any legal defenses or objections that you may have to a third party’s, including a government’s, request to disclose your personal data.
In the event that we are involved in a bankruptcy, merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your personal data may be sold or transferred as part of that transaction. This Privacy Policy will apply to your personal data as transferred to the new entity. We may also disclose personal data about you to our corporate affiliates in order to help operate our services and our affiliates’ services, including the delivery of ads.
You control the personal data you share with us. You can access or rectify this data at any time. You can also deactivate your account. We also provide you tools to object, restrict, or withdraw consent where applicable for the use of data you have provided to Entrepreneurship Corner. And we make the data you shared through our services portable and provide easy ways for you to contact us. Please note, to help protect your privacy and maintain security, we take steps to verify your identity before granting you access to your personal information or complying with deletion, portability, or other related requests.
