Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 26, 2023
Malan Education LLC ("Malan Education", "we" or "us") provides this Privacy Policy to inform you of our policies and procedures regarding the collection, use and disclosure of information we receive from users of malaneducation.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy applies only to information that you provide to us through the Site. This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time.
Information Collection
Malan Education collects information from our users at several different points on our website. Malan Education does not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement.
Automatically Collected Information
When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.” We collect Device Information using the following technologies:
Log Files
When you visit the Site our servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website ("Log Data"). This Log Data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browser type or the webpage you were visiting before you came to our Site, pages of our Site that you visit, the time spent on those pages, information you search for on our Site, access times and dates, and other statistics. We use this information to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement, increase our Site's functionality and user-friendliness, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.
Cookies
Like many websites, we use "cookies" to collect information and to administer and customize our service and to better understand, on an aggregate basis, how users interact with our Site. A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information about the user. We do not store personally identifiable information in cookies. Once the user closes their browser, the session cookie simply terminates. If you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use all portions of the Site or all functionality. For example, we require that you have cookies enabled to enroll in our service or to log in to your account.
Website Registration
When you register with us through the Site we will ask you for personally identifiable information (such as name and email address). We use the information we obtain to develop and deliver our services, administer your use of the Site and to fulfill legal requirements. Providing your information is voluntary and you can always choose not to provide it by choosing not to use our Site, services, or features. Additionally when you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase through the Site, we collect certain information from you, including your name, billing address, payment information (including credit card numbers) email address, and phone number. We refer to this information as “Order Information.” When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Order Information.
Information Use
We use the Order Information that we collect generally to fulfill any orders placed through the Site (including processing your payment information and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, we use this Order Information to: communicate with you; screen our orders for potential risk or fraud; and when in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with information or advertising relating to our products or services. We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
Links
The Site may contain links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Site. We do not exercise control over third party websites.
Notification of Changes
This Privacy Policy may change, from time to time. Notifications to changes of our Privacy Policy will be posted on our Site, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our home page.
Choice and Opt-out
Your use of the Site is voluntary. By becoming a Site user, you are consenting to receive certain email communications from us. Users who no longer wish to receive our email notifications may opt-out of receiving these communications by changing their settings on the site or contacting us at info@malaneducation.com. We reserve the right to send you specific administrative notices that are required by law, regulation, or as needed to service your account. We may use your Personal Information to contact you with information related to your use of the Site service. You may not opt-out of receiving these administrative emails.
Security
We understand the need to keep your information secure and private. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our Site, you can contact us. Please remember that you also play a valuable role in data security. You should never share your Site password with anyone. If you feel your password has been compromised, you should re-set it or contact us.
Emailing Via the Site
If you choose to use our service to invite a friend to join the Site or to email a page from the Site to a friend, we will ask you for your friend's email address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time email for this purpose. We store this information for the sole purpose of sending this email. Your friend may contact us to request that we remove this information from our database.
Compliance with Laws
We may disclose personal information about you to third parties when we believe such disclosure is appropriate to comply with a legal requirement, such as a law, regulation, court order, subpoena or search warrant, or in the course of a legal proceeding. We may also disclose personal information as we believe appropriate to enforce or apply our rights under our agreements with customers, to protect the rights, property or safety of Malan Education, our users and others, to protect the property and rights of Malan Education or a third party, to protect the safety of the public or any person, or to prevent or stop activity we may consider to be, or to pose a risk of being, any illegal, unethical or legally actionable activity.
Service Providers
We may employ third party companies and individuals to facilitate our service, to provide the service on our behalf, to perform Site-related services (e.g., without limitation, maintenance services, database management, web analytics, fraud detection services relating to the activity of Site users and improvement of the Site) or to assist us in analyzing how our Site and services are used. These third parties may have access to your Personal Information; if they do, this access is only so that they may perform these tasks on our behalf and they are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose. For example, we use Stripe to power our online payments. You can read more about how Stripe uses your Personal Information here: https://stripe.com/privacy.
