We are not responsible for the privacy practices, other content and/or services operated by third parties that are linked to or integrated with Circle Service or for the privacy practices of any third party.

Circle engages third parties that support the operation of Our Site and Circle Applications, such as analytics providers like the Apple App Store, Google Play, and payment gateways like Chargify and Shopify. These third parties may use technologies to track Your online activities over time and across different websites, online or app platforms.

PROTECTION AND RETENTION OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT

a. Circle is committed to protecting Your Personal Data and We implement appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to safeguard the information that Circle collects. For instance, Circle encrypts all data when in transit. However, no information system can be 100% secure. This means that Circle cannot guarantee the absolute security of Your Personal Data. Moreover, Circle is not responsible for the security of information You transmit to Us over networks that Circle does not control, including the internet and wireless networks, or the data that is stored on Your Circle device.

b. Circle works to protect Your User Content and/or Personal Data by using reasonable and appropriate technical, administrative and physical procedures to protect against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, destruction or alteration. We also take precautions to protect Users' Personal Data off-line, and We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the information submitted to Us, both during transmission and once We receive it. However, We cannot fully ensure or guarantee the security of any information You send to Us, and You do so at Your own risk.

c. If, and when, a User accesses secured areas of Our Sites, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology protects user information using both server authentication and data encryption, ensuring that user data is safe, secure, and available only to authorized persons.

d. Our computer systems are hosted in a secure data center environment that uses a firewall, intrusion detection systems, and other advanced technology to prevent interference or access from outside intruders.

e. Technical Safeguards:

• Unique password requirements and limited employee access;
  
• Destruction, deletion or de-identification of Data;
  
• Industry standard security protocols;
  
• Employee training on how to handle sensitive data, breach notice and procedures;
  
• Secure Technology (SSL), server authentication and Data encryption and use of firewall to host data;
  
• Designated security coordinator on the Circle team;
  
• Sub-processors and third-parties are bound to same security practice obligations;
  
• Backups; and
  
• Periodic audits.
  

f. If any personally identifiable data is collected through the use of the Services, We will ensure that it is destroyed, returned, or modified to make it unreadable or indecipherable, at the end of Your use of the Services, unless required to be retained and maintained in original form pursuant to law enforcement, legal proceeding, court order or subpoena.

g. Unless You request that We delete or archive Your Personal Data, Circle retains the information collected in an identifiable form as long as reasonably necessary and only for as long as required to fulfill the purposes and on the lawful grounds described above for which Circle collects the information and to comply with Our legal obligations. This means that We will keep Your Personal Data as long as necessary to be able to provide You with Our products and services and to be able to respond to Your requests.

h. When We have no ongoing legitimate business need to process Your Personal Data, Navigation Information, and/or User Information, We securely delete the information or anonymize it or, if this is not possible, then We will securely store Your User Information and/or Personal Data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. We will delete this information from the servers at an earlier date if You so request, as described above.

i. Without explicitly contacting Circle, the company is unable to judge if a customer has discontinued use of the hardware device. As such, Circle retains the information required to regain access to the device (phone number, Circle ID, and email address) until deletion of that information is requested.

j. Please bear in mind that whenever You voluntarily make Your Personal Data available for viewing by third parties online - for example through email or registering on an App - that information can be seen, collected and used by others besides Us. We are not responsible for any unauthorized third-party use of such Personal Data.

k. If You have elected to receive marketing communications from Us, We retain information about Your marketing preferences for a reasonable period of time from the date You last expressed interest in Our content or Services, such as when You last opened an email from Us or ceased using Your Account. We retain information derived from cookies and other tracking technologies for a reasonable period of time from the date such information was created. You have the right to unsubscribe from any marketing communications from Us, by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of Our marketing emails.

The following are examples to illustrate how Circle keeps Your Personal Data for as long as necessary for a particular purpose:

c. We may keep the personal account data associated with Your hardware so You can regain access to Your hardware device;

d. We delete Your email address used for direct marketing purposes (such as newsletters) after You have requested removal. We will retain Your email address for product-specific messaging unless You request removal.

DATA BREACH

a. Circle shall comply with all applicable federal and state laws that require notification to individuals, entities, state agencies, or federal agencies in the event of a data breach. When Circle reasonably suspects and/or becomes aware of a disclosure or security breach concerning any Personal Data, We shall notify the affected individual immediately and mitigate the damage of such security breach to the greatest extent possible. In the event of an actual data breach or the unauthorized access or disclosure of any sensitive or Personal Data, We will notify You in writing as soon as possible outlining the following information:

However, We will normally collect Personal Information and Personal Data from You only where We have Your consent to do so, where We need the Personal Information and/or Personal Data to perform a contract with You, or where the processing is in Our legitimate interests is not outweighed by Your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.

Similarly, if We collect and use Your Personal Information and/or Personal Data in reliance on Our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), We will make clear to You at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.

• the data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes;

USE OF COOKIES AND TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

a. Circle collects certain information by automated means when You visit Our Site or use Circle Applications. By collecting this information, Circle learns how to best tailor Our Site and App experiences to Our Users. Circle collects this information through various means such as “cookies,” “web beacons”, and “IP addresses” as explained below.

b. Like many companies, Circle uses “cookies” and related trackers on Our Site and Apps. Cookies are bits of text that are placed on Your computer's hard drive when You visit certain websites. Web beacons allow Us to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, the type of browser used to view the page, and the information in cookies set by the third party. Circle uses the information collected from these technologies to compile reports and help Us improve the Site and Apps.

c. For example, a cookie might tell Us whether You have visited Us before, the number of visitors to the Site, which site a visitor has come from, the pages they visited, and to help Us identify site features in which You may have the greatest interest. Cookies may enhance Your online experience by saving Your preferences while You are visiting a particular site.

d. Circle also collects IP addresses. An IP address is a unique identifier that certain electronic devices use to identify and communicate with each other on the internet. When You visit Our Site, Circle may view and/or store the IP address of the device You use to connect to the internet. Circle uses this information to determine the general physical location of the device and understand from what regions of the world Our websites visitors come from. Circle also may use this information to enhance Circle's websites.

More information about the tracking services We use on Our Site and Circle Applications is set out here.

Use of tracking in Our Circle Applications is required for the proper functioning and ongoing improvement of the Circle Service and Product. Specifically, the data collected in the Apps allows Circle to diagnose bugs and service-level issues, send on-boarding information via email and in-app messages about important updates and issues, and track feature usage at an aggregate level to inform product enhancements. The tracking described only occurs when the Circle Services are in use.

Most browsers will tell You how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when You receive a new cookie, and how to disable existing cookies. Please note, however, that without cookies You may not be able to take full advantage of all Our Services and Circle Applications. Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) signal whereby You may indicate Your preference regarding tracking and cross-site tracking. Although Circle does not currently employ technology that recognizes DNT signals, Circle will only process Your Personal Data in accordance with this Policy.

Our Services also use web analysis services such as Google Analytics, in order to better understand Your use of Our websites and how We can improve the Site. The information generated by these services is anonymous and does not include data that can personally identify You. The anonymous information collected through the use of these services is not combined with any Personal Data You may have explicitly chosen to share with Us. The providers’ ability to use and share information collected by these services about Your visits of Our Services is restricted by terms of use and the providers’ privacy statements. To get a better understanding of how these providers may use the anonymous data collected on Our websites, You may review, as an example, Google’s policy on this matter here.

REMOTE ACCESS OF YOUR CIRCLE ACCOUNT CONFIGURATION

The End User License Agreement for any Circle Device or Circle Account authorizes Circle or its duly authorized support representatives to access Circle Devices or Circle Account information remotely. Circle requires such access in order to troubleshoot, debug, and otherwise offer support and solutions to Circle Services users. Remote access is enabled by the User via the Circle App.

Except as described elsewhere in this Policy, Circle does not access a given Circle Device or Account unless a support request has been received, and it becomes apparent to the support representative that there is a problem that can be solved via remote access. If You wish to limit the level of access to Your Circle Device or Account, You must state those limitations at the time of Your support request.

Circle or its duly authorized support representatives will only access Your Circle Device or Account under the conditions that You set. Whether or not You set any limitations on remote access, Circle will discontinue remote access upon resolution of the support request or deletion of Your account.

PRIVACY NOTICE FOR CANADIAN USERS

Pursuant to Section 4.2 of Schedule 1 of Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (the "Act"), Circle Media, Inc., a Nevada Corporation ("Circle") provides this Privacy Notice ("Notice") to its Canadian customers. The Act provides that the protection of Canadian citizens requires certain disclosures to be made before the acceptance of any offer of services. If after reading these disclosures You do not wish to use Circle's Services or Products, You may return Your Circle Device for a full refund.

Circle believes that its Privacy Policy meets or exceeds the requirements of the Act. It is Circle's interpretation of Section 7.2(2) of Division One of Part One of the Act that Circle's data collection activities fall within the Completed Business Transaction exemption to some requirements of the Act. Additionally, Circle does not collect "Personal Information" as defined in the Act unless it is encrypted in transit and at rest. Nonetheless, using the Services carries certain privacy risks unique to Canadians. Please review this Notice carefully.

Circle's Servers are in the United States of America. In order to provide the Circle Services, the Circle Device uses the Internet to connect to Circle's servers. Those servers are located within the continental United States. The Act recommends that notice be given that data, which may include Personal Data, will travel between Canada and the United States, and that the data will rest on Our servers.

Circle's Treatment of Personal Information. When You use Circle Services, Circle uses the ID Number of Your Circle Device or the Circle Go software application, in whatever form (the "Circle Go Software"), as its primary identifier. This prevents unnecessary transfer of Personal Data between the Circle Go Software and the servers, or between various portions of the Circle Go Software. Circle does not need to know “who” is using the Circle Services to provide the personalization You expect of the Circle Services. Rather, We need to know “which” device is requesting, posting, or otherwise interacting with Circle's servers. The Circle Device and Circle Go Software carry preferences and filtering information independent of Personal Data. We do log Your IP address (the Internet address of Your computer or network) to give Us an idea of which parts of Our website You visit and how long You spend there. Circle does not link Your IP address to any Personal Information or Data unless You have logged in to Our Services. Even then, the related Personal Data is encrypted while in transit and at rest. Finally, during registration of Your Circle Device You are invited to submit information, including Personal Data, for the purposes of registering Your Circle Device for warranty protection. Once collected, this information is stored in a separate database, and is not readily accessible via the Circle Services.
