Privacy Policy

Privacy

This privacy policy (this “Policy”) describes how and when Commune Yoga Online,

Inc., a Washington corporation (“Commune Yoga Online,” “we,” or “us”), uses and

shares your information when you use our Website at www.communeyoga.com or

www.communeyoga.online www.communeyogastudio.com (the “Website”), as well as all related software, tools,

systems, series and other services provided by us (collectively, together with the

Website, our “Service”). This Policy also describes our use and disclosure of that

information. By using our Service, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure

of personal information in accordance with this Policy. This Policy is incorporated by

reference into the Commune Yoga Online Terms of Service http://

www.communeyoga.com or www.communeyoga.online/terms and subject to the

provisions of the Terms of Service.


Personal Information

“Personal Information,” as used in this Policy, is information that specifically identifies

an individual end user of the Service, such as an individual's name, address,

telephone number, or e-mail address. Personal Information also includes information

about an individual’s activities, such as information about his or her activity on our

Service, and demographic information, such as date of birth, gender, geographic

area, and preferences, when any of this information is linked to Personal Information

that identifies that individual.

Personal Information does not include “aggregate” or other non-personally

identifiable information. Aggregate information is information that we collect about a

group or category of products, services, or users that is not personally identifiable or

from which individual identities are removed. We may use and disclose aggregate

information, and other non-personally identifiable information, for various purposes.

Collection of Information

Collection of Voluntarily-Provided Information

We collect Personal Information that our users provide to us in a variety of ways on

our Service, including:

E-mail Newsletters. We may offer e-mail newsletters with

announcements and information about Commune Yoga Online from time to time on

our Service. If you sign up to receive a newsletter from us, we collect your e-mail

address. You may opt out of receiving e-mail newsletters.

Downloads, User Accounts and Profiles. Our Service or third parties may

give you the ability to download Commune Yoga Online software, register for a

Commune Yoga Online account or to create and update a user profile on the Service.

If we offer such functionality on the Service, we will collect the Personal Information

that you provide to us in the course of using that functionality. This information may

include, for example, your name, contact information, and system information, as

well as information about your interests, preferences and future needs. We may

indicate that some personal information is required for you to download our

software, register for the account or to create the profile, while some is optional. To

the extent that your user profile is public, we will share your Personal Information in

your user profile with others in your organization.

Integrated Service. 

You may be given the option to access or register for the Service through the use of your user name and passwords for certain services

provided by third parties (each an “Integrated Service”), such as through the use of

your Facebook credentials through Facebook Connect . By doing this, you authorize

us to access and store the credentials you provide, your name, email address(es),

date of birth, gender, current city, profile picture URL, and other information that the

Integrated Service makes available to us, and to use and disclose it in accordance

with this Policy. You should check your Facebook or other Integrated Service privacy

settings to understand and change the information sent to us through Facebook

Connect or other Integrated Service. Please review each Integrated Service’s terms

of use and privacy policies carefully before using their services and connecting to

our Service.

Interactive Features and Public Areas. 

Our Service may contain interactive functionality that allows you to engage with other users on the Service,

post comments to forums, to upload photographs and other content (the “User

Content”), participate in surveys, and otherwise to interact with the Service and with

other users. If you use any interactive functionality on our Service that requests or

permits you to provide us with personal information (including, for example, any

services that allow you to post User Content on any of our Service), we collect the

Personal Information that you provide to us in the course of using these interactive

features. You should be aware that any information you provide in chat sessions,

message boards, email exchanges, newsgroups or similarly non-private areas of the

Service may be read, collected, and used by others who access these areas, and this

information is not Personal Information for the purposes of this Policy. To request

removal of your Personal Information from these areas, please contact us. In some

cases, we may not be able to remove your Personal Information, in which case we

will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.

Correspondence. If you contact us by e-mail, using a contact form on

the Service, or by mail, fax, or other means, we collect the Personal Information

contained within, and associated with, your correspondence. We use this Personal

Information to respond to your correspondence. We may also use your

correspondence to improve the Service.


Promotions. We or our advertisers and other business partners may

conduct or sponsor special contests, sweepstakes, and other promotions that users

may enter or otherwise participate in on our Service. Certain of these promotions

may be co-branded with one of our advertisers or other business partners. In these

instances, the collection of your Personal Information may occur directly by the thirdparty

partner on its website or other online service and may be shared with us. The

promotion will state the privacy policy or policies governing the collection of such

personal information.

Passive Information Collection

When you visit our Service, some information is collected automatically. For

example, when you access our Service, we automatically collect certain information,

which may include your browser’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, your browser type,

the nature of the device from which you are visiting the Service (e.g., a personal

computer or a mobile device), the identifier for any handheld or mobile device that

you may be using, the Web site that you visited immediately prior to accessing any

Web-based Service, the actions you take on our Service, and the content, features,

and activities that you access and participate in on our Service. We also may collect

information regarding your interaction with e-mail messages, such as whether you

opened, clicked on, or forwarded a message.

We may collect this information passively using technologies such as standard

server logs, cookies, and clear GIFs (also known as “Web beacons”). We use

passively-collected information to administer, operate, and improve the Website and

our other services and systems, to improve the effectiveness of advertising on our

Service, and to provide advertisements and other content that is tailored to you. If we

link or associate any information gathered through passive means with Personal

Information, or if applicable laws require us to treat any information gathered

through passive means as Personal Information, we treat the combined information

as Personal Information under this Policy. Otherwise, we use and disclose

information collected by passive means in aggregate form or otherwise in a nonpersonally

identifiable form.

Also, please be aware that third parties, such as companies displaying

advertisements on the Service, or sites or services provided by third parties (“Third-

Party Sites”) that may be linked to or from the Service, may set cookies on your hard

drive or use other means of passively collecting information about your use of their

services, Third-Party Sites or content. We do not have access to, or control over,

these third-party means of passive data collection.

Information from Other Sources

We may receive information about you, including Personal Information, from third

parties (e.g. opt-in lists where you have requested information about Commune Yoga

Online or the Service while visiting a Third-Party Site). We may combine this

information with other Personal Information we maintain about you. If we do so, this

Policy governs any combined information that we maintain in personally identifiable

format.

Use of Personal Information

We use Personal Information to provide the services and information that you

request. We also use your Personal Information to enhance, improve, operate,

analyze and maintain our Service and other systems (e.g., to troubleshoot problems);

to prevent fraudulent use of our Service and other systems; to prevent or take action

against activities that are, or may be, in violation of our Terms of Service or applicable

law; to tailor advertisements, content, and other aspects of your experience on and

in connection with the Service; to maintain a record of our dealings with you; for

other administrative purposes (e.g., contacting you regarding administrative

information or notices); to resolve disputes and enforce our agreements with you;

and for any other purposes that we may disclose to you at the point at which we

request your Personal Information, and pursuant to your consent. We may also use

Personal Information you provide to contact you regarding products, services, and

offers, both from ourselves and from third parties, that we believe you may find of

interest. We allow you to opt-out from receiving marketing communications from us

as described in the “Choice” section below.

Disclosure of Personal Information

Except as described in this Policy, we will not disclose your Personal Information that

we collect on the Service to third parties without your consent. We may disclose

your Personal Information to third parties if you consent to us doing so, as well as in

the following circumstances:

Service Providers

We may disclose Personal Information to third-party service providers (e.g., valueadded

resellers, payment processors, data storage and processing facility vendors)

that assist us in our work. We limit the Personal Information provided to these service

providers to that which is reasonably necessary for them to perform their functions,

and we require them to agree to maintain the confidentiality of such Personal

Information.

Public Areas

Some features on our Service may allow you to upload, post, or otherwise transmit

User Content to public areas of the Service, such as content that you post in a public

profile on the Service. Please be aware that any Personal Information that you

include within any User Content will be made available to other users of the Service.

You include Personal Information in User Content at your sole risk. We may allow you

to select privacy options that limit access to some types of Personal Information in

User Content, but no security measures are impenetrable or perfect. Additionally,

even after information posted on the Website is removed, caching and archiving

services may have saved that information, and other users or third parties may have

copied or stored the information available on the Service. We cannot warrant or

guarantee that any Personal Information that you provide on and in connection with

the Service will not be accessed, viewed, or used by unauthorized persons.

Business Transfers

Information about our users, including Personal Information, may be disclosed and

otherwise transferred to an acquirer, or successor or assignee as part of any merger,

acquisition, debt financing, sale of company assets, or similar transaction, as well as

in the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership in which Personal

Information is transferred to one or more third parties as one of our business assets.

To Protect our Interests

We also disclose Personal Information if we believe that doing so is legally required,

or is in our interest to protect our property or other legal rights (including, but not

limited to, enforcement of our agreements), or the rights or property of others, or

otherwise to help protect the safety or security of our Service and other users of the

Service.

Event and Conference Sponsors

We may share your Personal Information with third parties that sponsor Commune

Yoga Online events or conferences that you attend. Otherwise, Commune Yoga

Online does not offer or allow the sale of any of your Personal Information to third

parties.

Choice

If you receive commercial e-mail from us, you may unsubscribe at any time by

following the instructions contained within the e-mail. You may also opt-out from

receiving commercial e-mail from us, and any other promotional communications

that we may send to you from time to time (e.g., by postal mail) by sending your

request to us by e-mail at online@communeyoga.com or by writing to us at the

address given at the end of this policy. Additionally, we may allow you to view and

modify settings relating to the nature and frequency of promotional communications

that you receive from us.

Please be aware that if you opt-out of receiving commercial e-mail from us, it may

take up to ten business days for us to process your opt-out request, and you may

receive commercial e-mail from us during that period. Additionally, even after you

opt-out from receiving commercial messages from us, you will continue to receive

administrative messages from us regarding our Service.

Access

If we offer the ability to create user accounts or profiles on our Service, you may have

the ability to access and update many categories of Personal Information that you

provide to us by logging in to your account and accessing your account settings. If

you wish to access or amend any other Personal Information we hold about you, you

may contact us at online@communeyoga.com or by the other methods described

under “Contacting Us” below.

If you request that we delete your account on any of our Service (via a user settings

page, by e-mail, or otherwise), we will do so within a reasonable period of time, but

we may need to retain some of your Personal Information in order to satisfy our legal

obligations, or where we reasonably believe that we have a legitimate reason to do

so.

Links

The Service may contain links to other Web sites, products, or services that we do

not own or operate. For example, the Service may contain links to Third-Party Sites

such as social networking services. If you choose to visit or use any Third-Party Sites

or products or services available on or through such Third-Party Sites, please be

aware that this Policy will not apply to your activities or any information you disclose

while using those Third-Party Sites or any products or services available on or

through such Third-Party Sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of

these Third-Party Sites or any products or services on or through them. Additionally,

please be aware that the Service may contain links to Web sites and services that we

operate but that are governed by different privacy policies. We encourage you to

carefully review the privacy policies applicable to any Web site or service you visit

other than the Service before providing any Personal Information on them. Children

Children’s safety is important to us, and we encourage parents and guardians to take

an active interest in the online activities of their children. Our Terms of Service

prohibit users of the Service who are under the age of 18. We do not knowingly

collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we

have collected Personal Information from a child under the age of 13 on our Service,

we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we may

have collected any such Personal Information on our Service, please notify us

at online@communeyoga.com

International Visitors

Our servers and data centers are located in the United States. If you choose to use

the Service from outside the U.S., then you should know that you are transferring

your Personal Information outside of your region and into the U.S. for storage and

processing. By providing your Personal Information to us through your use of the

Service, you agree to that transfer, storage, and processing in the U.S. Also, we may

transfer your data from the U.S. to other countries or regions in connection with

storage and processing of data, fulfilling your requests, and operating the Service.

You should know that each region can have its own privacy and data security laws,

some of which may be less stringent as compared to those of your own region.

Security

We use reasonable security measures that are designed to protect personal

information from accidental loss, disclosure, misuse, and destruction. Please be

aware, however, that no data security measures can be guaranteed to be completely

effective. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information

that you provide to us. You transmit information to us at your own risk. Always select

a password that is unlikely to be available or discovered by others, and never

disclose your password to any third parties. You are responsible for all Personal

Information submitted through your account or user profile and all actions taken

through your account and user profile. Therefore, if your password has been

compromised for any reason, you should immediately change your password.

Updates to this Policy

We may occasionally update this Policy. When we do, we will also revise the “last

updated” date at the beginning of the Policy. Your continued use of our Service after

such changes will be subject to the then-current policy. If we change this Policy in a

manner that is materially less restrictive of our use or disclosure of your Personal

Information, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you of the change and to obtain

your consent prior to applying the change to any Personal Information that we

collected from you prior to the date the change becomes effective. We encourage

you to periodically review this Policy to stay informed about how we collect, use, and

disclose Personal Information.
