PRIVACY STATEMENT

Last Updated February 04, 2025

Shane Hummus LLC and www.shanehummus.com ("Shane Hummus," "www.shanehummus.com," "us," "we," or "our") thank you for visiting our online and mobile resources. We use the words "you" and "your" to mean you, the reader, and other visitors to our online and mobile resources who are, in all cases, over the age of 13. Our privacy statement ("this statement," "this privacy statement," and "our statement") informs you about from whom and the types of personal information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with and why, and what we do to try to protect it.

Online and mobile resources mean the websites and other internet features we own that allow you to interact with our websites, as well as apps we've created and distributed to let our customers and followers view our online and mobile resources or otherwise interact with the content we provide.

WHO WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM

We may collect personal information from the following groups of data subjects:
- Visitors to, and users of, our online and mobile resources
- Our customers and students
- Current members of our workforce and those who apply for posted jobs
- Third-party vendors and business partners

Personal information generally means information that can be used to identify you or that can be easily linked to you (for example, your name, address, telephone number, email address, social security number and date of birth). The privacy laws in some jurisdictions include unique elements in what they consider to be the personal information of the consumers or data subjects they protect. If those laws apply to us, as in the case of the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA") or European General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), our use of the phrase "personal information" includes the unique elements required by such laws.

WHAT WE COLLECT

Voluntarily Submitted Information

If you participate in certain activities via our online and mobile resources, you may be asked to provide us with information about yourself. The types of personal information we collect in those situations includes:
- Identifiers (name, email address, physical address, phone number)
- Professional information
- Financial account information (credit card information)
- Course participation and progress information
- Communication preferences

We do not sell, rent, or trade voluntarily submitted personal information with third parties.

By using our online and mobile resources or purchasing our products or services, you are signifying to us that you agree with this section of our privacy statement and that we may use and disclose your information as described.

Some of the ways you voluntarily give us your personal information and how we use it:

Emails and Online Forms
When you send us an email or fill out an online form, your email address and any other personal information that may be in the content of your message or attached to it, are retained by us and used to respond back directly to you and to process your request.

Registering for an Account
When you register for an account, you submit personal information to us such as your name and email address which we then retain. We use that information to create and manage your account and establish a password and profile to communicate with you via email.

Registering for Courses and Programs
When you register for courses, programs, webinars, or events, you will be submitting identifiers as described above. If the registration requires a fee, we may also ask you to submit credit card or other financial information.

Becoming a Student/Customer
We use information provided from our customers to perform our contractual obligations and provide the products and services purchased to them, to manage their accounts and communicate with them.

Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our online and mobile resources, basic information is passively collected through your web browser via use of tracking technologies, such as a "cookie" which is a small text file that is downloaded onto your computer or mobile device when you access the online and mobile resources. It allows us to recognize your computer or mobile device and store some information about your preferences or past actions.

We allow third party vendors to use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activities over time following your use of the site. For example, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google").

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
