This Privacy Policy explains how The Data Bros and its affiliates (collectively, “The Data Bros”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collect, protect, use, and disclose information that—either alone or combined with other information—can be used to identify or contact you (“Personal Information”). This Privacy Policy applies to https://www.thedatabros.com and all websites or applications that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Platform”).

We may revise and update this Privacy Policy from time to time and will post the updated Privacy Policy to the Platform. If these changes are material (i.e., changes we believe you will find important), we will post notice of the changes on the Platform. Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent. UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED, ANY CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY WILL APPLY IMMEDIATELY UPON POSTING TO THE SERVICE.

  1. Personal Information We Collect Through the Platform
    The Data Bros is a technology and data company that, through the Platform, provides you with educational videos and training materials on how to use and harness certain technology as applied to data. This section describes the types of information we collect through the Platform and how we use it.
    • Personal Information You Provide
      We collect Personal Information that you provide to us through the Platform and use such Personal Information for purposes relating to the reasons you provided it to us and to help us improve the Platform. For example, we collect information such as:
      • Your name, e-mail address, phone number (to help you create and manage your account, and to facilitate transactions)
      • Subscription payment information collected through a third-party service provider
      • Username and password
      • Communications you send to us.
    • Personal Information We May Receive from Third Parties
      • Your name, billing address, credit card type, last four digits of credit card, and expiration date of credit card.

    • Information We Collect Automatically
      Whenever you interact with the Platform, we automatically receive and record information from your browser or device. Information collected automatically may include your IP address, device ID, location data, the type of browser you are using to access the Platform, and the identity of the Platform page or feature you are requesting. We may use such information to analyze trends, administer the Platform, and gather broad demographic data for aggregate use.
      We may use “cookies” or other tracking technologies (e.g., web beacons, single-pixel, or clear GIFs) to track how you use the Platform for analytics and security purposes. A cookie is a file stored on your computer or device to uniquely identify your device or to store information or settings on your device. You may adjust your web browser software if you do not wish to receive cookies or web beacons, but this may prevent you from taking advantage of some of the Platform’s features.Please refer to your browser instructions or help pages to learn more about these functions. To assist us with analyzing our website traffic through cookies and similar technologies, we use analytics services such as Google Analytics. For more information on Google Analytics’ processing of your information, please see “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ Platforms or apps.
      Some of our service providers may use cookies or other methods to gather information regarding your use of the Platform and may combine the information in these cookies with any of your Personal Information that they may have. The use of such information by a third party depends on the privacy policy of that third party.
      We do not track users over time and across third party websites to provide targeted advertising. Accordingly, we do not currently respond or take any action with respect to web browser “do not track” signals or other mechanisms that provide consumers the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of Personal Information about an individual’s online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services.
  2. When Personal Information is Collected
    You may be required to provide us with certain information that may constitute Personal Information in the following ways:

      In various areas of our Platform and in printed materials, we provide you the opportunity to submit a form with basic contact information, such as your name, email, or mailing address. With your permission, The Data Bros uses such information to inform you of new products, technical information and services, and upcoming events that may be of interest. If you no longer wish to receive these emails, the opt-out process is described in Section 7 of this Privacy Policy.

    • Payment Information
      When you purchase services or products from us, third-party service providers acting on our behalf process payment information, including payment card details and billing and shipping addresses, to help us fulfill your orders.
