PRIVACY POLICY

Principled Research Resources ("Principled Research Resources," "we," "our") is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your Personal Information and other data that Principled Research Resources gathers when you are accessing our website (the “Site”). By using our Site or registering to use the Site, you are consenting to the personal information collection, use, and sharing practices described in this Privacy Policy.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

Personal Information means any information that may be used to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, personal profile, a home or other physical address, and an email address or other contact information, whether at work or at home. Currently, we do not require you to provide Personal Information to have general access to the Site.

We collect information about our users to provide a more interesting and useful service. We will ask for your name, email address, and other Personal Information when you register to use certain features of Principled Research Resources.

We collect IP addresses for Site security and to help us understand how people use the Site so that we can improve the Site and our users' respective experiences. For similar quality reasons, we use a feature known as a "cookie." Cookies contain bits of information that websites transfer to your computer's hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Cookies can make the Web more convenient by storing information about your preferences on a site. Although we may assign your browser a cookie, the cookie does not tell us who you are. Only you can tell us that.

We collect data from the applications and devices that you are using to access our site. This may include your IP address and browser, which may also allow us to infer your geographic location.

HOW DO WE PROTECT CHILDREN?

We operate our sites in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act and it is our policy not to knowingly collect or use personally identifiable information from anyone under 13. However, you should be aware that we assume that any communications submitted through email or an online transaction are from an adult.

HOW DO WE USE YOUR INFORMATION?

We use the Personal Information that you provide to us in different ways. You agree that we may use your Personal Information to:

  • Facilitate account creation and the logon process;
  • Prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities, and enforce our Site policies;
  • Notify you of important changes to our Site;
  • Customize, measure, and improve our services and content;
  • Comply with applicable laws, including, but not limited to, responding to legal requests;
  • Create new services, features, and content; and
  • Create analytics from aggregated or anonymized use of the Site.

TO WHOM MAY WE DISCLOSE YOUR INFORMATION?

Principled Research Resources will not disclose any Personal Information, except as set forth in this Privacy Statement.

If you choose to provide us with your Personal Information on the Site, we may transfer that Personal Information within Principled Research Resources, but only to provide services on the Site. In addition, we may disclose your Personal Information if we have a good faith belief that disclosure of such information is helpful or reasonably necessary to (i) comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, (ii) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues, or (iii) protect against harm to the rights, property, or safety of Principled Research Resources, its users, yourself, or the public.

We may share aggregated or anonymized Personal Information with third parties to (i) improve our services, (ii) promote our services, or (iii) offer new services. We may also share broad aggregate demographic data and related usage information with our business partners. This aggregate information does not contain any Personal Information that can identify an individual user.

Principled Research Resources may share your information if all or substantially all of our assets are acquired by or merged with another company, our company is reorganized, or our business changes. Under such circumstances, you expressly consent to Principled Research Resources transferring your Personal Information to the new owner or successor entity so that it may continue to provide you with services. Where applicable, Principled Research Resources will notify the appropriate agencies of such a transfer to comply with applicable data protection and privacy laws.

HOW SECURE IS THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT?

Principled Research Resources is committed to preventing the loss, misuse, and alteration of the personal information in our possession. However, as you know, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse Personal Information that they collect from the Site. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your Personal Information or private communications will always remain private.

HOW DO WE USE COOKIES?

IP Addresses

Your Web browser or email application automatically provides your Internet Protocol address ("IP address") to other computers with which you communicate over the Internet, so that they know where to send you information.

We receive an IP address each time you view one of our Web pages because the browser automatically reports it to us.

We may use IP addresses for various purposes, including:

  • Diagnosing service or technology problems.
  • Assessing and maintaining system security.
  • Displaying the most appropriate advertising or content.
  • Studying how people use the Site and how we can improve it.

Cookies

Cookies may be used on the Site in the following ways:

  • We may use cookies to access your stored account information automatically when you log on to the Site, in order to deliver a better and more personalized service.
  • Most browsers are set up to accept cookies, but you can configure yours to refuse cookies or notify you when you've received one. Browsers differ, so check your "Help" menu to learn how to change your cookie preferences. If you reject cookies on the Site, though, you may not be able to access some areas of the Site or use some of its features.

HOW WE RESPOND TO “DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS”

We do not respond to DNT signals.

HOW CAN YOU PROTECT YOUR ACCOUNT?

While we do our best to protect Personal Information, Principled Research Resources cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of any password and/or account information. If your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately notify us and change your password. Please be careful and responsible whenever you are online, especially when using a computer that other people can use also.

HOW CAN YOU ACCESS, REVIEW OR CHANGE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

To the extent that you do provide us with Personal Information, Principled Research Resources wishes to maintain accurate Personal Information. You may check your profile, update your account information, download your data, delete information, or correct any incorrect information. We do retain Personal Information from closed accounts to comply with law, prevent fraud, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce our Site policies, and take other actions permitted by law.

GENERAL

We may amend this policy from time to time.
