Pasela Privacy Policy

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to assist us in protecting the personal information we collect against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use. We also maintain our own server equipment which is located in a secure facility that features controlled access and preventive security measures. Only authorized Positive Action personnel and agents can access the equipment or data.

We have also encrypted network traffic between our equipment and yours with a 2048-bit secure socket layer certificate issued by a reputable authority. This theoretically provides basic protection from eavesdropping and other forms of surveillance.

Please note that no electronic transmission of information can be entirely secure. We cannot guarantee that the security measures we have in place to safeguard personal information will never be defeated or fail, or that those measures will always be sufficient or effective.

We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you or allows us to contact you including (but not limited to): your name, e-mail address, postal address, date of birth, and URL (collectively, “Personal Information”). Generally, this information is requested when you contact us for information, place an order for our products or services, or when you complete a survey.

We use your Personal Information for the following primary purposes:

What kinds of information and data do we collect?

We may ask for certain personal data to make our services available to you. We only ask for information associated with your account or the administration. When ordering or registering on our Site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter contact information and credit card information. You may, however, visit our Site anonymously. We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes detailed in this Privacy Policy.

We may collect information about you from various sources, including when you request or enter information on the Site or otherwise use the Site, and when you contact us by email or other means. Such information may include information by which you may be personally identified, such as your name, postal address, email address, and telephone number (“personal information”), and other information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Among other things, we may collect the following information:

We will also ask for payment and business information for invoicing purposes, although this information is received and processed by a third-party payment processor (the “Processor”), and Positive Action never receives or records this information. Positive Action is not responsible for the handling of this information by such third-party Processor, and you should review the Processor's terms and privacy policy before sharing any payment information with them.

Purchases and payments may be facilitated through third-party Processors such as Chargebee.com or Stripe.com. Please refer to their respective websites for more information.

In addition, the Site collects personal data through web form submissions, primarily for the purpose of enabling the purchase of Services and engaging in support. Positive Action also collects anonymous information about how visitors use our web Site; for example, Positive Action utilizes web analytics software to track, in aggregate, the number of unique views received by the pages of the web Site, the domains from which users originate along with many other analytical data points. Through the use of web analytics software, the Positive Action Site may use "cookies" to assist the tracking of how users engage our website.

The Site will also automatically gather and store in log files information such as: IP addresses, browser types, ISPs, referring/exit pages, operating systems, date/time stamps, and movements around the Site. The Site also gathers demographic information and other information from you based on your responses to surveys and similar Site services. At no time will Positive Action require a child to disclose more information than is reasonably necessary in an activity as a condition of participation.

We do analyze website functionality for performance for purposes of improving our service offerings to our customers.

You understand that you shall be solely responsible for the accuracy and truthfulness of the Personal Information shared with us. In the event you share any Personal Information on behalf of a third person, you shall ensure that you have the necessary authority to share such Personal Information with us.

How we Collect Information. Positive Action may collect information from you in several different ways including the following:

When you request information from us, by phone or e-mail, through the Site, or by requesting to join our mailing list, we may collect certain personally identifiable information from you. If you respond to a survey or sign up contest or drawing, we may request certain Personal Information. We use this information to provide you with information, customer service, or other services related to your request.

As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and movements around the Site, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We do not link this automatically collected data to personally identifiable information.

If you send us personal correspondence, such as an email or letter, we may collect such information into a file specific to you.

We may collect certain personally identifiable information regarding you, when a third party may voluntarily provide such information, in particular when using the “Share this” option present on parts of the service.

Positive Action participates in many public events and events with multiple sponsors, such as trade shows and seminars. The events generally collect certain personally identifiable information from all attendees and distribute this data in whole or in part to all the event sponsors including Positive Action. While we cannot control and are not responsible for the practices of other sponsors for these events, Positive Action will maintain the privacy of its copy of your Personal Information received in this way.

The Site may contain links to other sites. However, please be aware that Positive Action is not responsible for and cannot control the privacy policies of such other sites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Site, and to read the privacy policies of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by the Positive Action Site.

Positive Action may monitor your activities, preferences, and transactional data (such as your IP address) relating to your use of the Site and/or services and log this information. This information may be used to diagnose Site technical problems. We also use personal and non-Personal Information in aggregate or statistical form in order to improve our products, services and procedures. This means that information from many persons and/or web Site visits is grouped together in a way that does not disclose the Personal Information of any particular person. For example, we track how many people have expressed interest in a particular product and what kinds of web browsers are most often used when visiting our web Site. Among other things, this information helps us determine which of our products and services are successful and which should be changed or discontinued.

Based upon the personally identifiable information you provide us, we may send you a confirmation e-mail to act as a receipt of your purchase. We will also communicate with you in response to your inquiries and to provide the services you request.

We will also communicate with you in connection with services you request from Positive Action.

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you place an order.

We offer the use of a secure server. All supplied sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our Payment gateway providers database only to be accessible by those authorized with special access rights to such systems and are required to keep the information confidential.

Positive Action uses appropriate and reasonable measures to maintain the security of your Personal Information. This includes procedures followed by our personnel to prevent data loss or theft, physical security of our servers and information stores and electronic security such as firewalls, password-protected databases and secure connections.

Positive Action may use certain third parties for services such as advertising, marketing and order fulfillment. We only work with third parties whose privacy policies and security practices are equal to or more stringent than our own and who agree to strictly limit their use of the information we provide them to fulfill the functions for which they have been retained. You should be aware, however, that no data transmitted over the Internet, sent through the mail or stored on a computer is 100% secure and that we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data while in transmission to us. Public computers in particular should never be considered secure.

You should never give out Personal Information on the Site, or its message board, in chat rooms and other publicly viewable locations. In addition, there exist malicious programs, typically called computer viruses or trojan horses, which can be used to capture information off your computer's hard drive or while you are entering it into a web form or sending it by email. You should always use the appropriate anti-virus and personal security technology to protect yourself.

Lastly, if you have been assigned a login ID and/or password for use on an Positive Action system (for example, a login for our web store to purchase products), you should never give out that information to others.

Information from the Site. Positive Action will never disclose to non-affiliated third parties without your prior approval your e-mail address, phone number, or other Personal Information that we collect via the Site. However, we reserve the right to outsource certain activities to certain third parties. In such cases, we strictly limit the information provided to these third parties to the minimum necessary for them to perform the functions for which we have retained them and prohibit them from using the information for any other purpose or retaining it after it is no longer needed.

Positive Action, however, will cooperate with official law enforcement inquiries, such as fraud investigations and subpoenas, and will disclose your information when necessary to comply with state and federal laws and regulations.

We cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other Personal Information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), we may be forced to disclose Personal Information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmission or private communications, or users may abuse or misuse your Personal Information that they collect from the Site.
