PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT FROM YOU

We use the term “personal information” – also called “personal data” or “personally identifiable information” in the laws of some jurisdictions – to refer to information that reasonably identifies, relates to, describes, or can be associated with you. Data that has been deidentified or that otherwise cannot reasonably be related back to a specific person is not considered personal information. The precise definition of personal information may vary depending on your place of residence, but we take the same general approach to protecting your privacy, subject to any additional measures that may be required by applicable laws.

With your consent, we share the categories of personal information described above with the Businesses that you visit, which is used by these Businesses to enhance their customer experience, and to administer the membership program. In addition, we may disclose your personal information to other affiliates and entities in the following instances:

  • Service Providers. We may share your personal information with third-party service providers who may use your information to provide us with services including, but not limited to: website hosting, data analysis, infrastructure provision, information technology services, customer service, email delivery services, payment processing, auditing, and anti-fraud monitoring. These service providers may have access to personal information that is necessary to perform their functions, but they are only permitted to do so in connection with performing services for us. They are not authorized by us to use the information for their own benefit.

  • Non-Personal Information. We may share non-personal information in de-identified or aggregated form with the Businesses. Certain information, such as the time and location of an anonymized business check-in, will be publicly available on the blockchain. We publicly commit to maintain and use the information in de-identified or aggregate form, and not to attempt to re-identify the information.
  • Data Sharing and Third-Party Access. We take your privacy seriously and are committed to protecting your personal information. To that end:
  • We do not sell, license, rent, or otherwise make available your personal information to any third party for their independent use.
  • Your data is not shared with external parties for purposes unrelated to the services we provide to you.
  • In the preceding twelve (12) months, we have not sold any personal information, as defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) or any other applicable privacy laws.
  • This policy applies universally to all users, regardless of their geographic location. There is no need for users to "opt out" of data selling, as we do not engage in this practice.
  • Any sharing of information with third parties is strictly limited to what is necessary for the functioning of our services or as required by law. In such cases, these third parties are prohibited from using your personal information for any purpose other than to provide the specific service to us or as mandated by legal requirements.


LINKS TO OTHER SITES AND SOCIAL MEDIA SERVICES

We may create links to other websites that we think may be of interest to you, such as to certain Businesses. We are not affiliated with any third parties featured within, or utilized as part of, the Services (including the Businesses), and are not responsible for their services.  You acknowledge and agree that you will hold the Businesses solely responsible for any transaction between you and the Business, including without limitation the services provided to you by the Business.

The Services may also integrate with social media services. We do not control such services and are not liable for the manner in which they operate. While we may provide you with the ability to use such services in connection with the Services, we are doing so as an accommodation and, like you, are relying upon those third-party services to operate properly and fairly. We do not endorse any other websites, providers, or services by providing such links, and this Privacy Policy applies only to your use of the Services. We are not responsible for the privacy policies of any websites and services we link to on the Services, and you should read the privacy policies of each site you visit to determine what data that site may collect about you.

You should be aware that any personal information which you voluntarily include and transmit online in a publicly accessible blog, forum, social network, or otherwise may be viewed and used by others. By using such features, you assume the risk that the personal information provided by you may be viewed and used by third parties.

Cross-Device Matching. We may use your information to help us, or our third-party vendors, determine if you have interacted with the Services across multiple devices and to match such devices. To accomplish this, we may rely on information (including demographic, geographic and interest-based data) from third parties such as data vendors, pursuant to their own privacy policies, or we may use information we collect in conjunction with such third-party data.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Personal information is maintained on our servers or those of our vendors, and is accessible by authorized employees, independent contractors, representatives, and agents as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We use reasonable and appropriate physical, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to promote the security of our systems and protect the confidentiality, integrity, availability, and resilience of personal information. However, no method of safeguarding information is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee that our safeguards will be effective or sufficient. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us of the problem by contacting us at +1 (800) 362-4511 or support@amazeme.co.

DATA RETENTION

We will retain your personal information for as long as your inquiry is active or as needed to provide you with the Services, and for a reasonable time thereafter in accordance with our standard procedures or as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. Even if we delete some or all of your information, we may continue to retain and use anonymous or aggregate data, or any other data that constitutes non-personal information. Please note that we will not be liable for disclosures of your data due to errors or unauthorized acts of third parties.

YOUR CHOICES

Consistent with applicable law, you may exercise the choices described in this section regarding your personal information and communications from us.

  • Cookies and Tracking Technologies. If you would like to stop or restrict the placement of cookies or flush any cookies that may already be on your computer or device, please refer to and adjust your web browser preferences. Further information on cookies is available at www.allaboutcookies.org. By deleting our cookies or disabling future cookies, you may not be able to access certain areas or features of the Services or some of its functionality may be affected.

Note that cookie-based opt-outs must be performed on each device and browser that you wish to have opted out. For example, if you have opted out on your device browser, that opt-out will not be effective on your mobile device. Additionally, if you opt out on one of your devices, that opt out may not be effective on all of your devices. However, please be advised that cookie-based opt-outs are not effective on some mobile services.

Some browsers have a Do Not Track (“DNT”) feature that lets users signal to websites that they do not want to have their online activities tracked. Please note that we do not respond to or honor DNT signals or similar mechanisms transmitted by web browsers; however, we treat Global Privacy Control signals as a means of opting out of the sale or sharing of personal information, as required by applicable law.

CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, and other applicable U.S. state data privacy laws (collectively, “Applicable Privacy Laws”) provide you with specific rights regarding your personal information. This section describes the rights of California residents, and residents of other states, as applicable, and explains how to exercise those rights. The rights in this section are not intended to grant you additional rights, but only your rights under Applicable Privacy Laws.

Rights to Your Information

Right to Know. You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection, use, disclosure or sale of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Your Rights, below), and subject to certain limitations that we describe below, we will disclose such information. You have the right to request any or all of the following:

  • The categories of personal information we collected about you.
  • The categories of sources from which the personal information is collected.
  • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information.
  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
  • The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (see Data Portability Rights below).

Right to Delete. You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Your Rights, below), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies. However, we maybe retain personal information that has been de-identified or aggregated. Furthermore, we may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) in order to perform certain actions set forth under Applicable Privacy Laws, such as detecting security incidents and protecting against fraudulent or illegal activity.

Right to Data Portability. You have the right to request a copy of personal information we have collected and maintained about you in the past 12 months. Applicable Privacy Laws allow you to request your information from us up to twice during a 12-month period. We will provide our response in a readily usable (and usually electronic) format.

Right to Correct. You have the right to request the correction of any personal information we maintain about you.

Right to Opt Out of Selling or Sharing Your Personal Information. Although Applicable Privacy Laws provide you with the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information, we have not sold or shared your personal information, as defined by Applicable Privacy Laws, within the past 12 months.

Right to Non-Discrimination. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights under Applicable Privacy Laws, including but not limited to, by:

  • Denying you goods or services.
  • Charging you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
  • Providing you a different level or quality of goods or services.
  • Suggesting that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

Exercising Your Rights. To exercise the rights described above, please email us at support@amazeme.co.

After submitting a request, we will take steps to verify your identity in order for us to properly respond and confirm that it is not a fraudulent request. In order to verify your identity, we will ask, at a minimum, that you provide your name, email address, phone number, and address, so that we can seek to match this information with the information existing in our systems. When providing us this information, you represent and affirm that all information provided is true and accurate. If we are unable to verify that the consumer submitting the request is the same individual about whom we have collected personal information, we may contact you for more information, or we may not be able to meet your request.

Only you, or an agent legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable request related to your personal information. If you are making a request as the authorized agent, we will ask you also submit reliable proof that you have been authorized in writing by the consumer to act on such consumer’s behalf.

We will make every effort to respond to your request within 45 days from when you contacted us. If you have a complex request, Applicable Privacy Laws allow us up to 90 days to respond. We will still contact you within 45 days from when you contacted us to let you know we need more time to respond.

Notice of Financial Incentive. We may offer you financial incentives, including discounts, coupons, or other rewards, for sharing personal information through programs that we may provide from time to time. For example, the Amaze platform membership program may provide incentives based on your engagement across different categories, such as the information you provide and if they download our mobile app. When we offer our membership platform to you, we believe that the value of the different pricing or services you receive exceeds the cost of providing your personal information. Your participation in our membership platform is completely optional and subject to the terms provided to you at the time you sign up. You may withdraw from participation in our membership platform at any time by contacting us at +1 (800) 362-4511 or support@amazeme.co. More information about our membership platform is available in our terms of service.

California “Shine the Light”. In addition to the above rights, under California Civil Code Section 1798.83 (“Shine the Light”), California residents may have the right to request in writing from businesses with whom they have an established business relationship: (a) a list of the categories of personal information, as defined under Shine the Light, such as name, email address, and mailing address, and the type of services provided to the customer that a business has disclosed to third parties (including affiliates that are separate legal entities) during the immediately preceding calendar year for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes; and (b) the names and addresses of all such third parties. To request the above information, please contact us by email at support@amazeme.co.

NEVADA PRIVACY RIGHTS

If you are a resident of Nevada, you have the right to opt out of the sale of certain personal information that we have collected (or may collect) from you to data brokers or other third parties. You can exercise this right by emailing us at support@amazeme.co with the subject line “Nevada Do Not Sell Request.”

Please note that personal information transferred to the United States is subject to access by law enforcement.

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We reserve the right, at our discretion, to update this Privacy Policy at any time and will notify you of any material changes to the way in which we treat personal information by posting an updated Privacy Policy or other notice on relevant areas of our Website. Any updated version of this Privacy Policy will be effective immediately upon posting unless otherwise specified. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of the revised Privacy Policy will constitute your consent to those changes.

We encourage you to periodically review the Website for the latest information on our privacy practices.
