This Privacy Policy describes how Music4Life (“Music4Life” or “we” or “our” or “us”) treats certain information collected or provided in connection with an end user’s (“you” or “your” or “user”) use of Music4Life’s website, https://www.music4life.org/, and any other website, social media pages, apps, or other digital medium owned or operated by Music4Life (collectively, the “Site”). This Privacy Policy also applies to any Personal Information (defined below) collected, stored, or used by us, such as information you provide us through the above media, by email, mail, or telephonic communications in connection with our Site and any and all products or services provided to you by Music4Life (“Services”).

The information provided in this Privacy Policy is designed to inform you of what information we collect, why we collect such information, how we use the information we collect, and the choices we offer, including how to access and update information. By accessing or using our Site, you acknowledge and consent to the Terms and Conditions and this Privacy Policy, including our collection, use, and disclosure of your Personal Information, as described below. This Privacy Policy is not a contract and does not create any legal rights.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully.

Our Collection and Use of Personal Information

“Personal Information” is information that can be used to identify you. This Privacy Policy does not cover data we, or our authorized third-party vendors or partners, collect that cannot be used to identify an individual, or to pseudonymous data.

We get most Personal Information directly from you, through the Site, or from transactions with you in connection with our Services. We might also obtain Personal Information about you from other Site users or other entities with whom we have contact. For example, we may obtain Personal Information through public records, or transactions you have with our authorized third-party vendors or partners. If you are sharing information with us about any other individual, you must obtain their consent.

The categories of Personal Information we may collect from you include:

  • Your name.
  • Contact information, including your phone number, email address, and mailing address.
  • Payment card number (or other payment method) and related validation information.
  • Information you provide when interacting with the Site, including payment history, transaction data, and communications (including email or direct messages “DM”).
  • Website analytics information, including when, how often, and for how long you use the Site; information related to your geographic location; the content you submit and view; the name of the domain and host from which you access the Internet; and the IP address of the computer or device you are using.
  • Other identifiable information about you, such as date of birth.

We collect Personal Information to help identify you; to perform contractual obligations, including our Services and/or processing and fulfillment of requests; to communicate with you; to properly administer our Site and to maintain records; to research and analyze the use of our Site and Services so we can improve our Services; to detect and prevent fraud; to exercise and defend legal claims; to comply with legal obligations; and for other purposes as described in this Privacy Policy.

We may also collect and maintain Personal Information about you to create a personal profile containing preferences and other information that you voluntarily provide to us. Examples of the types of information we may collect for this purpose include your first and last name, a valid email address, and geographic location or address.

You can choose to not provide certain information to us but it may delay or prevent us from providing our Services to you, including your ability to fully access our Site, participate in our Services, receive our communications, or similar features.

We may also automatically receive and store certain types of Personal Information whenever you visit the Site, such as information from Google Analytics (see https://policies.google.com/privacy) on when, how often, and for how long you use the Site, information related to your geographic location, and the content you submit and view. This information may include the name of the domain and host from which you access the Internet and the IP address of the computer or device you are using. We may log and use your IP address to administer the Site, to help diagnose problems with our server, to analyze trends, to track users’ webpage movements, to help identify you and/or verify your use, and to gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. We may use standard tools, such as cookies or web beacons, to monitor the Site and Internet usage and to improve or customize the content on the Site. You should be able to control the use of cookies with respect to your own devices by changing your own browser settings.

Our web servers may collect log data, which provides aggregate information about the number of visits to different pages on the Site. We may use such aggregate log data to improve access to the Site based on visitors’ web browsers and operating system types to make the Site available to as many users as possible. We do not link log data collected to Personal Information. Third party providers may also collect aggregate log data independently from us.

We do not currently respond to Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control browser settings because a uniform technological standard has not yet been developed, and we do not have control over other sites’ use or acceptance of Do Not Track browser settings or the Global Privacy Control signal. We reserve the right to update our practices and Privacy Policy as such standards evolve.

Categories of Personal Information Disclosed or Sold

We do not sell your Personal Information to any third parties. In the preceding twelve (12) months, we did not sell any categories of Personal Information.

In order to conduct our business and better serve you, we may disclose Personal Information and other information about you or your activities on our Site or while using our Services with:

  • Our service providers and vendors, such as payment processors, promotional partners, website hosts, analytics providers, legal counsel, and various customer, technology, and operational support.
  • Financial and legal institutions.
  • Law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, courts, or other public authorities, to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, to respond to requests from governmental authorities, to protect our rights, to defend against legal claims, or as otherwise required by law.

Some third-party providers may independently collect Personal Information when you visit our Site. Our authorized third-party vendors and partners have their own privacy notices which govern the use, handling, and disclosure of your Personal Information.

We also may use third-party web analytics services on our Site, such as those of Google Analytics (see https://policies.google.com/privacy). The information collected may be used by Music4Life and/or others in aggregated / anonymized formats to, among other things, evaluate use of the Site and relevant Services, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, deliver advertising and content targeted to your interests on our Services and other websites, and better understand your online activity.

Retention, Confidentiality, and Security of Personal Information

We retain Personal Information for as long as is reasonably necessary for our business operations and to fulfill the purpose of collection or further processing as described in this Privacy Policy; as we determine is necessary for business records; and to comply with applicable law.

We restrict access to Personal Information to those who need to know in order to provide services to you and to conduct our internal operations. We maintain reasonable physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to guard your information. However, the Internet and digital information is not absolutely secure and, thus, we cannot promise guaranteed security. In the unlikely event that we believe that the security of your Personal Information in our possession or control may have been compromised, we may seek to notify you. As applicable, we will comply with notification requirements for a security breach and may also notify you using the email address you have may have provided to us.

In the event of a merger, acquisition, corporate change, or bankruptcy, we may share or transfer your Personal Information as part of a transfer of our assets to the acquiring entity.

We do not knowingly collect information directly from minors and the Site is intended for adults over the age of eighteen (18). If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child under the age of thirteen (13) has provided Personal Information directly to us without your consent, please notify us at David@Music4Life.org. If we become aware that information is or has been submitted by or collected directly from a minor under the age of thirteen (13), we will work to promptly delete this information.

Any changes to, or deletion of, Personal Information does not affect any other information collected by us, or which we may retain and continue to use or disclose in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
