PRIVACY POLICY

Updated: 05/23/2018

1. What Do We Do With Your Information?

When you browse our site, book classes or mock tests, or request more information, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, email address, phone number, educational information, and so on.

When you browse our site, we may also automatically receive Log Data, including your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Site that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics. In addition, we may use third party services such as Google Analytics that collect, monitor and analyze this information. This data helps us to improve the usefulness and accessibility of content on our site.

With your permission, we may send you emails and other marketing communications about CATES, new products and other updates.

2. Consent

How do you get my consent?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction or verify your credit card, we infer that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only—in other words, we will use your data only as required in order to fulfill your purchase or service request.

If we ask for your personal information for another reason, like scheduling a consultation or marketing, we will ask you directly for your expressed consent.

We agree that we will not sell, rent, or trade your email address to any unaffiliated third-party without your permission.

How do I withdraw my consent?

If you change your mind after opting in, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you and for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information at any time. To unsubscribe from email marketing, simply click the “Unsubscribe” link at the bottom of our emails. To opt out from all communications, contact us at info@catestutoring.com or mail us at CATES LLC, 99 Wall St., Suite 4440, New York, NY, 10005, United States.

3. Disclosure

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

4. Transactions & Payments

Online payments are facilitated by Infusionsoft Payments. If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Infusionsoft stores your credit or debit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.

PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

5. Third-Party Services

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

External Links

When you click on links on our site, they may direct you away from our site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.

6. Security

To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed.

If you provide us with your credit card information, the information is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with a AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.
