Privacy Policy – https://www.google.com/search?q=GetBlare.com (Last Updated: [Insert Updated Date Here])
Alright, buckle up, privacy enthusiasts! At GetBlare (https://www.google.com/search?q=GetBlare.com), we take your digital secrets seriously… mostly. We also like to keep things (somewhat) entertaining, so here’s the lowdown on what we do with your info.
1. What Delicious Data We Collect (The Info Grab Bag):
We like to gather a few tidbits about you lovely folks. This includes:
- The Basics: Your first and last names, your magical email address, and sometimes, if you’re feeling generous, your clothing size and where we should send the awesome stuff you might buy (shipping address).
- For Our Business Buddies: Your business name, website info, and what kind of budget you’re working with (so we don’t accidentally suggest a solid gold website when you’re thinking tin foil chic).
- The Wallet Stuff: Payment information – handled securely by our pals at Stripe and PayPal (we don’t store the super sensitive bits ourselves, pinky swear!), and your billing address for the grown-up stuff.
- Your Digital Footprints: We track the links you click, the pages you visit on our site, how long you linger (no judgment if you spend hours admiring our brilliance), your IP address (your digital postal code), and those oh-so-popular cookies.
- Where Your Stuff Lives: Any cool content you upload or create through our services might hang out in our Member Portal, the digital realms of Zoho Workdrive, or even the cloud kingdom of Dropbox.
2. How We Snag Your Info (The Collection Chronicles):
We get your data in a few ways:
- When You Spill the Beans: When you fill out forms on getblare.com, our super-duper Member Portal, and even those forms over at HoneyBook.
- Through the Digital Grapevine: From emails we send you via Mailchimp and sometimes our friend Kit (formerly ConvertKit).
- The Cookie Monster’s Work: Yep, we use cookies (more on those digital crumbs below).
3. Why We’re Being Nosy (How We Use Your Info):
We’re not just collecting for the fun of it! We use your info to:
- Work Our Magic: To actually provide you with the awesome services you signed up for.
- Spread the Word: To tell you about other cool services we offer (marketing!).
- Keep Things Running Smoothly: To make sure our website and services are in tip-top shape (maintenance!).
- Manage Your Digital Clubhouse: To handle your account on our Member Portal.
- Chat It Up: To send you updates, offer support when you’re stuck in a digital ditch, make important announcements, and generally keep the lines of communication open.
- (And everything else you mentioned – you nailed it!)
4. Who Else Gets a Peek (Information Sharing):
We don’t go shouting your secrets from the digital rooftops, but we do share some info with folks who help us do our thing:
- Our Inner Circle: The amazing staff at The Blare Group LLC dba Blare Studios and the tech wizards at The Messha Network.
- The Money Handlers: Stripe and PayPal (they handle the actual money magic).
- Our Digital Toolkit: WPMUDev (for some cool website plugins), Flywheel and Kinsta (our future hosting buddies), Mailchimp and Kit (for email fun), Google Analytics (to see how our site’s doing), UberSuggest, HoneyBook, Zapier, SEMRush, Moz, Penji, 99Designs, and Printful (our various service partners).
5. The Cookie Crumb Trail (Our Use of Cookies):
Like everyone else on the internet, we use cookies! These little digital snacks help us:
- Remember You: So you don’t have to log in every single time.
- Keep You Logged In: Obvious, right?
- Silence the Pop-Up Gremlins: To stop those annoying pop-ups from haunting you repeatedly.
- Tailor the Digital Ads (Sometimes): To show you stuff you might actually be interested in.
- See What’s Popular: For analytics – to understand how you use our site so we can make it even better.
6. Our Digital Spies (Tracking Technologies):
Yep, Google Analytics uses cookies to track how you wander around our website. Some of our WPMUDev plugins might also have tracking cookies in the mix.
7. Ignoring the “Do Not Disturb” Sign (Do Not Track):
Good news! We respect your digital boundaries. If your browser sends us a “Do Not Track” signal, we’ll do our best to listen.
8. No Robot Overlords Here (Automated Decision-Making):
Rest easy, we don’t have any robot overlords making big decisions about you based solely on your data. It’s all human-powered over here (for now, at least).
9. Your Digital Rights (Especially for our California Crew):
You’ve got rights when it comes to your personal info!
- The Right to Know: You can ask us what personal info we’ve collected about you, where it came from, why we collected it, and who we’ve shared it with.
- The Right to Delete: You can tell us to digitally shred your personal info (with a few exceptions, of course – we need to keep some stuff for legal reasons).
- The Right to Correct: Spot a typo in your info? Let us know, and we’ll fix it right up.
- The Right to Opt-Out of Sale (We Don’t Do That!): Just to be crystal clear, we do not sell your personal information for cold hard cash. We do share data with service providers to make our services work, but that’s not considered a “sale” under California law in the traditional sense.
- The Right to Limit Use of Info: You can tell us to limit how we use your info.
- The Right to Know About Precise Location: We might gather your precise geolocation data when possible (like if you enable location services).
- The Right to Non-Discrimination: We promise not to treat you differently just because you decide to exercise your privacy rights. You’re still our awesome internet friend.
Want to Exercise Your Rights? Just shoot us an email at [email address removed]. We’ll get back to you within 45 days (because sometimes digital paperwork takes a while). We’ll also need to make sure it’s really you making the request, so we might ask for a little digital ID.
10. Keeping Your Secrets Safe (Our Security Fortress):
We take reasonable steps to protect your personal info using secure servers and the security features provided by our trusted third-party partners. While the internet isn’t Fort Knox, we do our best to keep the digital baddies out.
11. Links to Other Digital Hangouts (Third-Party Websites):
Our website might have links to other online places (like Mailchimp). Just remember, their privacy policies are their own, and we’re not responsible for what they do with your info over there.
12. Our Digital Playground Isn’t for Kiddos:
Our services are generally aimed at adults and businesses. We don’t knowingly collect personal info from children under a certain age. If we realize we’ve accidentally done so, we’ll take steps to delete it ASAP.
13. Got Questions? Holler at Us!
If you’ve got any burning privacy questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at [email address removed]. We’re (usually) happy to chat.
By hanging around our digital abode, you’re agreeing to this slightly quirky, but hopefully clear, Privacy Policy. Thanks for trusting us with your info!
