‍

4. Will we share your data?

We will only transfer or process personal data to third parties if this is required for statutory or legal reasons and/or if we have your explicit consent to do so. The third party we share the data with is Passion.io, Independence284 GmbH, as Passion.io provides end users access to our products and services that are created with PassionApps.com.

We shall be entitled to collect, process and use your personal data for the purpose of identifying, delimiting and removing malfunctions and errors in the Service. If the requirements are met, we may collect, process and use personal data that is necessary to uncover any unlawful use of the Service. In accordance with prevailing legal provisions, we may provide information to criminal prosecution authorities and courts for prosecution purposes.

We collect our customers' name, email, shipping and billing address, payment details, company name, phone number, IP address, information about orders you initiate,  and information about the device and browser you use.

We use this information to support and process orders, risk and fraud screening, authentication, and payments. We also use this information to improve our Services.

‍

6. Google Analytics

The following web analytic service is used to improve the user experience of our Services:

We use Google Analytics, a service for the marketing analysis of this Website, of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses codes consisting of text and numbers, which will be stored on your computer and which allow for an analysis of the use of the Website (“Cookies”). The information generated by the Cookie about your use of the Website (including your IP address) will be transferred to and stored by a Google Server. Google will use this information, to evaluate your use of the Website, to prepare reports about the Website activities for the Website operators and to provide further services connected to the use of websites and the use of the Internet. Google may transfer this information to third parties, if legally obliged to do so or if third parties process these data on behalf of Google. In no case, Google will connect your IP address with other data from Google.

You can remove or deactivate such Cookies using the settings of your computer; in such a case you might not be able to fully use all functions of this Website. By using this Website you agree to the processing of your personal data by Google to the extent and purpose stated above. You can refuse to allow your data to be passed on by using a deactivation add-on for browsers under https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

‍

7. Facebook Plugin

Our Website uses social plugins (“Plugins”) of the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). You can view the list of Facebook social plugins and see what they look like here: http://developers.facebook.com/plugins

​

If you click on a page of our Website that contains this sort of Plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection with the Facebook servers. Facebook directly transfers the Plugin content to your browser which embeds the latter into the Website. We cannot influence the scope of data that Facebook collects with the help of this Plugin, meaning that the information we provide is based on our current knowledge.

​

The embedding of the Plugin informs Facebook that you accessed the respective page of our Website. If you are logged into Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to your Facebook account. If you interact with the Plugins, e.g. by clicking on the “Signup with Facebook” button, the corresponding information is transmitted from your browser directly to Facebook, where it will be saved. If you are not a member of Facebook, it is still possible for Facebook to identify and save your IP address. For information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and utilization of the data by Facebook, as well as your rights in this respect and the settings that you can adjust to protect your privacy, please consult Facebook’s data protection information: http://www.facebook.com/policy.php.

 

If you are a member of Facebook and want to prevent Facebook from collecting data on you via our Website and linking this data to your member data stored with Facebook, you may not signup with Facebook and log out of Facebook before you visit our Website. You will be able to connect our Service with Facebook via the Facebook Signup with Facebook” button on our Website. If you do so your email-address and your Facebook User-ID will be transferred to and stored by PassionApps.com and Passion.io. The Facebook privacy rules apply to the usage of the Signup with Facebook” button. If you do not want your data transferred in the aforementioned way, please refrain from using the “Signup with Facebook” button.

8. Cookies

We make use of cookies to store session information, to help you sign up for our Services, to protect your data and to provide users with a customized Service through identifying unique visitors and their respective usage patterns. Cookies are identifiers (miniature text files) that can be saved temporarily or permanently on a User’s hard drive by the server. Cookies guarantee the consistency of each communication process. Temporary cookies can be used to identify which visits are all part of a single session. Permanent cookies are for pre-recognizing a user, for instance so that individual settings can be made. Users are free to decide whether to let their browser use cookies. All browser programs allow cookies to be deactivated or deleted. When we use cookies no personally identifiable information will be collected.

 

All information, whether on data processors on our premises or on servers acting on our behalf, remains in complete control of us at all times.

 

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

​

If you have an account on our TablexTribe app or Blaze Knowledge Academy or on this site and you log in, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

 

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

​

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

 

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

 

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

 

9. Stripe / Braintree / Apple / Google

If you choose to use our Service we will process payments through our third-party credit card processor. All such transactions will be governed by the Stripe privacy policy at stripe.com/privacy. We do not receive or store credit card information into our servers. We receive a transaction “token” and a one-time use ID number so we can validate that the transaction has been successfully completed. Because we do not retain your credit card information, you will need to re-enter your information each time you make a payment.

‍

10. Keep your personal information up to date

You will be able to update your account information that you submitted to us at any time. We would like you to change or delete your information in case it is wrong.

‍

You may cancel your subscription at any time and free of charge by using the link in the newsletter or sending us a notification to: casey@blazegroupllc.com.

‍

12. Security

We employ technical and organizational measures including two-step verification process, password and physical security measures in order to safeguard the Service against loss, theft, misuse, destruction, access, alteration or the disclosure of your data by unauthorized persons. Despite regular controls a complete protection against all dangers is, however, not possible. The access to your account is possible only after entering your personal password. You should always treat your access information confidentially and close the browser window, once you have ended your communication with us, particularly if you share the use of the computer with others. We cannot warrant security for data transmitted to our Service because unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Passion.io, Independence284 GmbH is based in Germany. The information we collect is governed by the applicable German law and European directives. If you have any queries about the security of our Service, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time on casey@blazegroupllc.com.

‍

Upon request, we shall provide you with the information on the stored data relating to your person, free of charge and without delay. The information can be provided electronically, if desired. In cases regulated by law we are obliged, upon request, to correct, block or delete the data stored about you. Please direct all requests directly to: casey@blazegroupllc.com.

 

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

‍

14. How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

‍

15. Changes

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Policy without your explicit consent. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the bottom of the policy and, if the changes are significant, we will provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to our Website). To better protect your privacy you may review the Privacy Policy whenever you access the Service to stay informed about our information practices.
