14. Security

We endeavour to safeguard and protect our Users’ Personal Information. When Users make Personal Information available to us, the Personal Information they shared with us is protected both online and offline (to the extent that we maintain any Personal Information offline). The privacy of your Personal Information is very important to us. When our registration process asks users to submit sensitive Personal Information (if any), and when we transmit such sensitive information, that information is encrypted and is protected with SSL encryption software.

Access to the Personal Information shared with us is strictly limited, and we take reasonable measures to ensure that your Personal Information is not accessible to the public. The servers that we store Personal Information in are kept in a secure physical environment. We also have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of Personal Information under our control. Please be advised, however, that while we take every reasonable precaution available to protect your data, no storage facility, technology, software, security protocols or data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Computer hackers that circumvent our security measures may gain access to certain portions of your Personal Information, and technological bugs, errors and glitches may cause inadvertent disclosures of your Personal Information, notwithstanding that any attempt to breach the security of the network, our servers, databases or other hardware or software constitutes a crime punishable by law. For the reasons mentioned above, we cannot warrant or guaranty that your Personal Information will be absolutely secure. Any transmission of data at or through the App is at your own risk.  In the event of a security breach, we will endeavor to advise the affected users within 72 hours after we learn of the breach, but in any event, as soon as reasonably possible.

All of our Users’ Personal Information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is access-restricted. Only employees or approved contractors are granted access to Personal Information. Our employees are dedicated to ensuring the security and privacy of all user Personal Information. Employees and contractors not adhering to our firm policies are subject to disciplinary action. In compliance with applicable federal and state laws, or other laws applicable to persons using our Services in foreign countries, we shall notify you and any applicable regulatory agencies in the event that we learn of an information security breach with respect to your Personal Information. You will be notified via email in the event of such a breach. Please be advised that notice may be delayed in order to address the needs of law enforcement, determine the scope of network damage, and engage in remedial measures.


15. Information from users outside the U.S.A. and consent to transfer information

The App and our Services are operated from servers located in the United States of America.  If you are located in another jurisdiction, please be aware that information you provide to us may be transferred to, stored and processed in the U.S.A.  By using the App and Services or providing us with any information, you consent to this transfer, processing, and storage of your information in the U.S.A., a jurisdiction in which the privacy laws may not be as comprehensive as those in the country where you reside or are a citizen. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.


16. Managing your Settings

Even after consenting to the Privacy Policy and Terms of Use, you may opt out of receiving email advertising from us by following the instructions at the end of the applicable email message or by sending us an email at info@othermind.com and asking us not to send you email advertising. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may continue to contact you for the purpose of communicating information relating to your use of the App or request for Other MindTM Services, as well as to respond to any inquiry or request made by you. To opt-out of receiving Other MindTM Services-related and inquiry response-related messages from Other MindTM, you must cease requesting and/or utilizing the Other MindTM Services and cease submitting inquiries to Other MindTM, as applicable.


17. Identifying, Deleting and Updating Your Information

At your request, we will inform you of what Personal Information we have on file for you. In addition, at your request, we will update, correct, modify or delete Personal Information that you have provided to us, or that we have collected. You may do so by contacting us via email at info@othermind.com; provided, however, that we ask individual Users to identify themselves and the information requested to be accessed or updated before processing such requests. We will comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable.  However, we may maintain Personal Information whenever we are required to do so by law or regulations or as we believe is reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law or regulations, government requests, to detect or prevent fraud, to resolve disputes, to address problems with the Services, to assist with investigations, or to enforce our terms and conditions or other applicable agreements or policies. We may also need to retain certain information for record keeping purposes. We will retain your Personal Information so long as you subscribe to the App and for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.


18. Children

Other MindTM is committed to children's privacy.  Other MindTM does not knowingly permit any person less than 13 years of age to register directly for the Other MindTM App.  Persons under the age of 13 may only register with the consent of their parent or guardian.

If Other Mind® learns that Personal Information of persons under 13 years of age has been collected on the App or through the Services without parental consent, then Other MindTM will take appropriate steps to delete the information. If you are a parent or guardian and discover that your child under the age of 13 has a registered account with the App without your consent, please alert Other MindTM at info@othermind.com and request that Other MindTM delete the child’s Personal Information and account from its systems.


19. Changes to this Privacy Policy

Other MindTM reserves the right to change or update this Privacy Policy at any time by posting a notice on the App and/or website or sending out an email notification that we are changing our Privacy Policy. If the manner in which we use Personal Information changes, Other MindTM will notify Users by: (a) sending the modified policy to our Users via email; and/or (b) by any other reasonable means acceptable under applicable state and federal law. You will have a choice as to whether or not we use your information in this different manner and can go into the application and opt-out of any collection methods you do not wish to participate in.
