Description Of The PLATFORM AND WHO SHOULD JOIN AS A PARTICIPANT

Through the platform, participants can create or join a learning community; set climate action goals; make joint decisions; co-create meaningful solutions; exchange knowledge, experiences, and ideas; and track and amplify their progress towards their climate action goals.

Who Should Join as a Participant: We Are Committed to Positive Climate Action. If you are uncertain about the climate crisis or do not believe in it, you should not join our Platform. If you are pro-climate but your primary interest is in sharing your thoughts and feelings about what is wrong in this world, you should seek other networks. Our goal is to make a positive impact on the Climate Crisis. You are more than welcome to join us, if you share our goal and you want to help make it happen.  This is what participation in the Platform is all about.

If you believe that your content should not have been removed for alleged copyright infringement, you may send our Designated Agent a written counter-notice with the following information:

• Identification of the copyrighted work that was removed, and the location on the Platform where it would have been found prior to its removal;
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed as a result of a mistake or misidentification; and
• Your physical or electronic signature, together with your contact information (address, telephone number and, if available, email address).

If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, we may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed material or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the user, the removed material may be replaced or access to it restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our discretion.

PRIVACY POLICY

• Registration: When you register to use the Platform, you will have to provide personal identifiers (email address, username, and optionally, a password). Note that the username you provide will be visible throughout the Platform. You are not required to provide your real name for this purpose. We use this information to facilitate the provision of your right to access and use the Platform, and to provide you with support in accordance with the terms and conditions of the TOS. Where the European Union (“EU”) General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (the “GDPR”) applies, the legal basis for this is to be able to provide to you the ability to access and use the Platform so that we may perform our obligations under the TOS.
• Profile: If you choose to create a personal profile, you may include a free-text description of your climate-related profile, which may include your name and other biographical information that you choose to share in your profile, your topics of impact, topics of interest, areas of expertise, and any other content you may choose to share with us (and which may include media or files from your device(s)). This information will be available to all participants. Please do not include information which you would not like to be available to all such participants. Where GDPR applies, the legal basis for this is your consent. You may access your profile through the Platform’s ‘Profile’ section. You may revoke consent and request that the profile be deleted at any time by sending an email to Support@ourPlanet.app. Please note, however, that any information which you share in a Pod or a ReachOut (as such terms are described below) or other message which was sent to other participants will not be deleted.
• Queries and Support Requests: When you send us queries, contact us for support, or otherwise exercise your rights under the TOS and/or the Privacy Policy (including exercising your rights under applicable data protection laws), we may collect personal information that you provide to us as part of the query and/or support process, including but not limited to your name, username, address, telephone number, mobile number, email address, other information from which your identity is or may be discernible, and the content of your query and/or support request. We use this information to address the query and/or support request. Where the GDPR applies, the legal basis for this is the performance of our obligations to you under the TOS and this Privacy Policy.
• Newsletter and Marketing Communications: If you opt in to receiving communications from us, we will use the email address(es) you provided to send to you general or personalized service-related messages (for example, by using the name and/or username you provided as the greeting to the email communication), and to transmit marketing and promotional communications regarding the Platform, subject to your consent. You may opt out at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in each email. Please note that our email distribution service provider uses pixels embedded in the emails to track your interaction with the email (though you may disable this by disabling the download of photos in your email).
• User Communications. Our Platform provides the opportunity to interact with other participants who are not representatives of or employed by us via User Communications (as described in our TOS). User Communications may consist of group chats, “ReachOuts” related to your topic(s) of impact, which will be associated with your profile and will be available to all participants, and you also may engage in joint workspaces, called “Pods”, where information provided would be available to all participants invited to join the Pod. Accordingly, any information you provide through User Communications (including Personal Information) may be publicly posted and otherwise disclosed without effective limitation as to its use by other participants. We do not require participants to include sensitive data (e.g., race, ethnicity, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, membership of a trade union, physical or mental health, sexual life or criminal record) in their User Communications. If you choose to provide any such information in User Communications, please know that it may be available to others. We have no obligation to keep private any sensitive information or personally identifiable information that you have made available to other participants using these functions. Where GDPR applies, the legal basis for this is your consent.
• Surveys and User Research: We may send you surveys or contact you with questions to provide us with feedback on our Platform. We collect any responses that you provide. Participation in surveys or research tasks is elective and does not affect your access to the Platform. Where GDPR applies, the legal basis for this is your consent and is our legitimate interest to improve the Platform.
• Personal Information Automatically Collected or Generated from Your Use of the Platform: We automatically collect your interactions, including each activated function (i.e., created a ReachOut, sent a chat message, etc.), the time it was initiated, and its technical completion status (i.e., whether it was a ‘success’ or caused or resulted in an ‘error’). These interactions are not part of your user account, and are associated with anonymized IP addresses. We use this information to provide our IT team with statistics about network problems, latency, traffic by geographical regions, for allowing us to optimize the content delivery network, and the locations of our hosting provider’s (i.e. AWS’s) regions that we use. Where GDPR applies, the legal basis for this is our legitimate interest to improve the Platform.
• Cookies and Information Collected by Other Automated Means: In addition, we automatically collect certain aggregate information and analytical data related to your use of the Platform (see “Use of Cookies” below). Aggregate information is non-personally identifiable or anonymous information about you, and may include the date and time of your visit to the Platform, information about your usage of, and interaction with, the Platform (including the features of the Platform that you accessed), the IP address of your computer or mobile device, your location (which may be determined by your IP address), your computer or mobile device browser information (i.e., browser type, browser language, and your preferences), the internet address that you visited prior to and after reaching the Platform, the name of the domain and host you used to access the internet, and the information about the mobile device you use (including hardware model, operating system, screen aspect ratio, bandwidth, and your mobile device’s unique device ID). This data is not associated with your personally identifiable information. We may also use cookies and web beacons to track your interaction with the Platform (such as your time of visit to the Platform, pages visited, actions taken, how much time you spent on each page, and frequency of access), and to customize our Platform for you. We use the information described above in this paragraph to (a) conduct analytics, (b) conduct interest-based online advertising and measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns, (c) enhance user experience, (d) resolve disputes among users; (e) prevent fraudulent use of the Platform, and for other data security purposes, (f) comply with applicable laws and/or requests from authorized authorities, (g) diagnose and repair errors, and (h) otherwise comply with requests that you make to us in using the Platform. If and to the extent the GDPR applies, the legal basis for the foregoing use of such personal information collected about you is our legitimate interest to improve the Platform.
• Sponsor Access: If you are a Sponsor customer who sponsors the use of the Platform for your users (as opposed to an individual user), we may require you provide us with contact information for administrators or finance personnel as part of the setup and provision of the right for you and your users to access and use the Platform.

How Do We Use Information We Collect?

Our primary purpose in collecting information is to provide the Platform to you and to maximize your experience in using the Platform. We may use the information you provide to us for other purposes, as describe below (which is by no means an exhaustive list):

• Business Partners: When we operate the Platform (including the Apps) on behalf of our business partners, they will have the right to access the information collected through the App from participants that signed-up to access and use the Platform. Please note, any use our business partners will make of the information is subject to their privacy policies or practices.
• Compliance with Applicable Laws, Legal Orders and Authorities: We may disclose or allow government and law enforcement officials access to certain Personal Information in response to a subpoena, search warrant or court order (or similar requirement), or in compliance with applicable laws. Such disclosure or access may occur if we have a good faith belief that we are legally compelled to do so, or that disclosure is appropriate in connection with the efforts to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding actual or suspected illegal activity, fraud, or other wrongdoing.
• Affiliates: We may share your Personal Information with any of our affiliates where we consider that it is in our legitimate interests to do so for internal administrative purposes (for example, ensuring consistent and coherent delivery of the right to access and use the Platform to our participants, corporate strategy, compliance, auditing and monitoring research and development and quality assurances).
• Service Providers: We may engage selected third party companies and individuals (such as cloud vendors, hosting services, firewall providers, external instructors or teachers, data analytics services, and our business, legal, financial and compliance advisors) to provide on our behalf to you the right to access and use the Platform. We only provide such service providers with Personal Information so they can perform their required functions on our behalf, and for no other purposes, and each service provider shall be subject to confidentiality and data protection obligations that are at least as protective as those set forth in this Privacy Policy.
• Enforce Our Rights. We may transfer Personal Information in order to establish, protect, or exercise our legal rights, as required to enforce our TOS or other contracts; to defend against legal claims or demands; to detect, investigate, prevent, or take action against illegal activities, fraud, or situations involving potential threats to our rights; or take any action in case of any dispute involving you with respect to the Platform.
• Business Transfer: As with any other business, it is possible that in the future we could sell or buy subsidiaries or business units. In any such transaction, as well in the event all or substantially all of our assets are acquired by a third party, personal information of our users will generally be one of the transferred assets. We reserve the right to share Personal Information in connection with any such proposed transaction or financing, and to include your Personal Information, collected as an asset, in any such transfer to a third party.
• Marketing Analytics: We may share Personal Information with companies that assist us in our marketing, advertising and promotional activities; or with analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimization of our APPs and process Personal Information in the context of provision of analytical services to us.
• Support the Platform: We may use the information you provide us to provide any customer support you request, including troubleshooting problems, to monitor such requests, and to inform you about updates to the Platform.
• Improve the Platform: We may use the information you provide us to customize, measure, and improve the Platform, including through data analysis, testing, research, statistical and survey processes.

If you have any questions regarding the foregoing, or our privacy practices, you may contact us at privacy@ourplanet.app.

CAN WE USE De-identified information?

In addition to the uses of Personal Information described above, we may remove the identifiable parts of your information to create de-identified forms of such information (“De-identified Information”). De-identified Information may be compiled with other data in aggregated forms. We use this De-identified Information in the following ways:

• Disclosure for Business Purposes: We may license, sell or otherwise share De-identified Information with clients, partners, investors and contractors for any purposes related to our business practices.
• Platform Improvement: We may use De-identified Information to improve the Platform, as well as to share it with third-parties to evaluate their products or services.
• Research: We may use De-identified Information for research whether scientific, marketing, or business in nature. This research may be made public through publication, such as within scientific journals.

WHERE CAN WE STORE YOUR INFORMATION

We are based in the United States and we collect information directly from users worldwide. Information collected by or sent to us may be hosted, stored, processed, maintained or transferred in any country or other jurisdiction worldwide in which we and our affiliates, subsidiaries, or service providers (including cloud-based service providers) maintain facilities. We reserve the right to transfer your personal information outside of the jurisdiction or country where you reside and/or from which you use our Platform, including to the United States, where the privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction and where the United States surveillance laws may allow government authorities to access your information and may not allow you access or redress in connection with such surveillance. By using our Platform, you hereby provide your informed consent to the transfer, hosting, storing, processing or maintenance of information outside of your jurisdiction or country.

RETENTION: How Long DO WE RETAIN Your Personal Information?

We retain a participant’s Personal Information for as long as such participant is using the Platform, and typically delete Personal Information within two years of the closure of a participant’s account. If a participant ceases to use the Platform, we may continue to retain certain Personal Information of that participant for the period required by our legal and regulatory obligations and/or for accounting purposes (i.e., as required by applicable laws regulating the Platform, for bookkeeping purposes, and in order to have proof and evidence concerning our relationship with that participant, should any legal issues arise following the participant’s discontinuance of use of the Platform). Information which was shared as part of a Pod or a ReachOut, or messages exchanged with other participants, will not be deleted. Please note, however, that except as required by applicable law, we will not be obligated to retain your data for any particular period, and we are free to securely delete it for any reason and at any time, with or without notice to you.

What Are Cookies And How Do We Use Them?

A “Cookie” is a simple text file stored on your computer or device for use by a browser. Certain features may only be available through the placement of a cookie. We may use “cookies” to assist in data collection and to track visitor usage and trends to help us better serve you. The use of cookies is a standard practice among internet web sites; most internet browsers permit a user to accept, decline or delete cookies (as described below in more detail). We may use persistent cookies to make it easier for you to navigate the Platform. Specifically, we may use persistent cookies to track whether you are logged into the Platform. A persistent cookie may remain on your local device for an extended period of time. We may set a persistent cookie to store how you came to the Platform and what items you interact with during your visit. Persistent cookies also enable tracking and targeting the interests of our users to enhance their experience on the Platform. 

You can remove cookies, or set your browser to indicate when a cookie is being sent, by following directions provided in your internet browser (noting that each browser has its own way of reviewing and deleting cookies) or by visiting https://www.aboutcookies.org/ or www.internetcookies.org. When you remove or delete a cookie, an ‘opt-out’ cookie will be placed on your device. The opt-out cookie is browser and device specific, and will only last until cookies are cleared from your browser or device. The opt-out cookie will not work for strictly necessary cookies. If a cookie is removed or deleted, when you upgrade your browser or if you visit the Platform from a different device, you will need to return and update your preferences. Please note that if you reject cookies, you will still be able to view content via the Platform, but your ability to use some areas of the Platform may be limited.

Particular cookies on our Platform to note include: Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to conduct analytics. In doing so, Google Analytics may set cookies on your browser, or read cookies that are already there. Google Analytics may also receive information about you from applications you have downloaded that partner with Google. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with Personally Identifiable. Google will use and share the information collected through Google Analytics in accordance with its Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. To opt-out, you can download the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

How Do We Protect Your Personal Information?

We follow commercially accepted industry standards to protect the Personal Information submitted to or collected by us, both during transmission and once we receive it.  We maintain reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect the Personal Information we maintain against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use. For example:  Limiting access only to authorized administrators via username/password and role based access rights; and communications are secured by SSL. Although we make reasonable efforts to protect the Personal Information which you provide to us, the transmission of information over the internet and storage on IT systems and cloud-based servers are not completely secure. As such, you acknowledge and accept that we cannot ensure the security of any information you transfer to us, or guarantee that such information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed. We will make any legally required disclosure in the event of any compromise of Personal information. To the extent the law allows us to provide such notification via email or conspicuous posting on the Platform, you agree to accept notice in that form. In the event of an inadvertent disclosure of your Personal Information, we will take all commercially reasonable steps to limit and remedy the disclosure as required by the applicable law. In light of the foregoing, your use and access of the Platform is at your own risk. If you have any questions about security of our Platform, please contact us in the manner set forth under the heading “Contact Us” below.

CAN Children USE THE PLATFORM?

The Platform is intended for the use of users who are at least 18 years of age. The Platform is not directed to persons under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect or solicit information from, market to or accept services from persons under the age of 18 years old. If we become aware that a person under the age of 18 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to remove such personal information.

How Far Does Our Responsibility Extend?

This Privacy Policy applies to the Platform that is owned and operated by us. The Platform and our communications to you may contain links to other third party sites that may offer products or services that our users might find useful. These third party sites may request information from you. In such instances, the collection and use of your personal information will be governed by the privacy policy applicable to that third party site. We do not and cannot control the privacy policies, contents or links that appear on these third party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third party sites or services before providing any of them with your personal information. We accept no responsibility or liability for other third party sites or services.

How Can You Access or Amend Your Personal Information (RIGHT OF OPT-OUT, ACCESS AND CORRECTION)?

You have the right to view, correct, complete or remove your Personal Information. Upon and subjection to verification of your identity (noting that we may ask you to provide certain credentials to make sure that you are who you claim you are and to avoid disclosure to you of Personal Information which is related to others that you are not authorized to receive), we will respond to requests to view, correct, complete or remove your Personal Information within a reasonable time. We also may ask you questions to better understand the nature and scope of the information that you are requesting to view, correct, complete or remove.

We will make all reasonable efforts to accommodate requests to delete Personal Information unless it is required by law or for any lawful business purpose, and we always will delete any personal information that we are required by applicable law to delete at your request. Your rights may differ depending on your jurisdiction.

You can help us maintain the accuracy of your information by notifying us of any changes to your Personal Information as soon as possible. Your rights to access, change, or delete your personal information are not absolute. We may deny you such rights when required by law or if the request would likely reveal personal information about a third party.

To request opt-out, review, modification or removal of personal information, you should submit a written request to us at: privacy@ourplanet.app.

Your California privacy rights

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), California residents have certain rights relating to the collection, use, and sharing of their personal information for companies that do a minimum amount of business in or with California residents.

We currently do not meet the minimum necessary requirements to be subject to the CCPA. However, we also do not sell your personal information and will not do so in the future without providing you with notice and an opportunity to opt-out of such sale if required by law. Similarly, we do not offer financial incentives associated with our collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information.

If you are a resident of California, you have the right to request to know what personal information has been collected about you, and to access that information. You also have the right to request deletion of your personal information, though exceptions under the CCPA may allow us to retain and use certain personal information notwithstanding your deletion request. You may also send your request to us by contacting us at the address below under “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US?”.

Separate from the CCPA, California’s Shine the Light law gives California residents the right to ask companies what personal information they share with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes. We do not disclose your personal information to third parties for the purpose of directly marketing their goods or services to you unless you request such disclosure. If you have any questions regarding this policy, or would like to change your preferences, you may contact us at the address listed below.

Also, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits customers who are California residents and who have provided us with “personal information” (as that term is defined in Section 1798.83) to request certain information about the disclosure of that information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If you are a California resident with questions regarding this, please contact us in the manner set forth under the heading “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US?” below.

CAN EUROPEAN USERS USE THE PLATFORM?

While we are not subject to laws of the EU, including the GDPR, we will make reasonable efforts to provide you with information about your personally identifiable information held by us, to allow you to verify that the information is accurate and relevant for the purposes for which we collected it, and to correct or remove any information that is incorrect, or opt-out of collecting or storing that information. In particular, if you are located in the European Economic Area (the “EEA”), we will make reasonable efforts to provide you with the following rights:

• Access, Correction and Erasure Requests: You have the right to (a) ask us to confirm whether we are processing your Personal Information; (b) receive information on how your Personal Information is processed; (c) obtain a copy of your Personal Information; (d) request that we update or correct your Personal Information; (e) request that we delete Personal Information in certain circumstances.
• Right to Object to Processing: In certain circumstance, and specifically in connection with direct marketing, you have the right to request that we cease the processing of your Personal Information.
• Right to Restrict Processing: In certain circumstance, you have the right to request that we limit the processing of your Personal Information.
• Data Portability: You have the right to request that we provide you or a third party that you designate with certain elements of your Personal Information in a commonly used, machine readable format. Please note, however, that data portability rights apply only to Personal Information that we have obtained directly from you and only where our processing is based on consent or the performance of a contract.
• Right to Withdraw Consent: You have the right to withdraw your consent to any processing that we conduct solely based on your consent.

Can This Privacy Policy Be Modified? 

Each time you use or access the Platform, the current version of the Privacy Policy will apply. Accordingly, when you use the Platform, you should check the date of this Privacy Policy (which appears at the top of the Privacy Policy) and review any changes since the last version. We will occasionally update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our Platform and/or business practices. You are encouraged to check regularly for any changes to this Privacy Policy. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Policy applies to all information that we have about you. We will not materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of user information collected in the past without the consent of affected users. You agree that your continued use of the Platform shall constitute your acceptance of the Privacy Policy as revised.

What Law Applies To This Privacy Policy?

This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without giving effect to any principles of conflict of law. If you are outside of the United States, your information will be processed and stored in the United States and you consent to such processing and storage under the laws of the United States.
