Equity Shift, Inc. (the "Company," "we" or "us") and any of its pages, applications, services, groups, and networks (individually and collectively, the "Website") are an important means of providing you with information related to our Company and about conducting one or more Securities Transactions with us.
By accessing and using the Website, you agree and certify that you have read, understand, and agree to this Privacy Policy ("Policy"), whether or not you register for a profile with the Website by providing us with your email address and other personal information as described herein (a "Registered Profile Holder"), or whether or not you purchase, acquire, or transfer the Securities through a Securities Transaction. All users that access the Website, whether or not you are a Registered Profile Holder, are referred to as "you" or "Users".
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or delete portions of this Policy at any time without further notice and such modifications are, unless otherwise stated in this Policy, effective immediately. If this Policy is modified, such changes shall be posted on the Website and Company will make reasonable efforts to bring any modifications to the attention of User at the time of User's access of the Website. Your continued use of the Website after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy. If you do not agree to this or any future Policy, you shall not use or access (or continue to use or access) the Website.
We collect non-personally identifiable information from all Users, whether or not such Users are Registered Profile Holders. In order to provide a responsive and useful service, when you visit our Website, we collect certain non-personally identifiable information including the name of your Internet service provider, your IP address, the website from which you came to ours, the web pages you visit within our Websites, the time and length of your visit, and other information important to our marketing analysis and research. We may use cookies and active components (for example, JavaScript components) to collect aggregate information about the preferences of our visitors and optimize our Website accordingly. We may collect this non-personally identifiable information without providing further notice to you.
We may use cookies and other tools to collect and store your preferences, usage habits, and record session information. A "cookie" is a small data file that is transferred to your hard drive and used for record-keeping purposes. A cookie file can collect information such as the URL, computer IP address, domain type, browser type, the country, state, and telephone area code where your server is located, the pages of the Website viewed, and any search terms entered on the Website. Cookies and similar tools allow us and third parties to collect information about a user’s online activities over time and across different websites. These cookies allow us to customize the Website content to your preferences, profile, and/or demographic information. As technology changes, the use and function of cookies may change, and they may be replaced by other technologies. We have no obligation to update this Policy to reflect such changes. You may configure your internet browser or other settings to accept or reject all or some cookies, or notify you when a cookie is sent; however, you may be required to set your browser to enable cookies from us in order to use most functions on the Website. Even if your browser's settings are set to send “do not track” signals or other mechanisms to prevent tracking by cookies and similar tools, we may collect information about you and your activity. Please note that we allow third party advertisers to place and access cookies on a User's computer. Advertisers' use of cookies is subject to their own policies, not this Policy.
In addition to the information we collect from all Users, we collect both personally identifiable information and other information that is not personally identifiable about individuals and entities that become Registered Profile Holders. Registered Profile Holders may be asked to give to us, or to confirm the accuracy of, personally identifiable information provided in the course of registration for a profile through the Website, or in connection with their purchase, acquisition, or transfer of the Securities via a Securities Transaction (such as name, tax identification number, social security number, postal and email addresses, date of birth, and other information). To become a Registered Profile Holder and to purchase Securities, you must provide us with an email address, which we will use to provide you with access to a private investment landing page associated with our Website (the "Private Investment Page"). The Private Investment Page will enable you to qualify to participate in Securities Transactions.
In registering to become a Registered Profile Holder, accessing your profile with the Website, or accessing your Private Investment Page, we use a two-factor authentication method. Using two-factor authentication and entering your credentials when prompted will provide a more secure means to both register with the Website in connection with becoming a Registered Profile Holder, access your profile as a Registered Profile Holder, and access your Private Investment Page, without the need for a password. Should you provide your credentials using this method, we will not have access to any additional personal information except as stated in this Policy. You are required to use two-factor authentication to become a Registered Profile Holder, access your profile as a Registered Account Holder, or access your Private Investment Page.
We may also obtain information from or about Registered Profile Holders in other ways. For example, we will receive and access certain of your personal information from a Verification Vendor (as defined below) and we may verify or combine your information with additional information we collect from other service providers, our affiliates and other third parties or sources, as authorized and permitted by law. Also, we collect the information you send to us such as correspondence, investor qualification surveys, and customer satisfaction surveys or customer service communications.
It is your option to provide the information requested, but declining to provide us with such information may prevent you from participating in Securities Transactions or may impact your rights with respect to the Securities you may own or transfer as a result of such participation.
We value the privacy and security of your personal information. We have implemented commercially-reasonable measures designed to keep your personal information safe from unintended disclosure, including physical, electronic, administrative, and procedural protections. Despite our efforts, however, factors beyond our reasonable control, such as a malicious breach by a "hacker", may result in disclosure of your personal information. Accordingly, we are not in a position to guarantee that your information will be secure under all circumstances and we offer no warranties or representations with regards to the maintenance or non-disclosure of your information. We do not consider personal information to include information that has been anonymized so that it does not identify a specific user.
We use the information we collect from Registered Profile Holders to facilitate the Securities Transactions, to communicate with and provide notice to Registered Profile Holders, to provide Registered Profile Holders with information about the Issuers terms of any Securities they may own or transfer, and to update them on the current policies and procedures applicable to the Securities Transactions. We will use the information we collect to request your participation in investor qualification and participation surveys.
We may also use the information we collect from all Users to tailor and personalize our marketing, products and services, and to continually improve the Website. We may also use the information we collect to request your participation in surveys and promotions, and we may send you product information, updates or special offers. If you no longer wish to receive these kinds of promotional communications from us, you may opt out at any time by sending a request using email to: optout@equityshift.com.
California Civil Code Section § 1798.83 permits users of our Website that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to optout@equityshift.com or write us at: 1 Glenwood Ave., Suite 04-111 Raleigh, NC 27603 The information we collect may be stored, processed, and passed on to third parties, such as service providers, direct marketing companies, or our joint marketing partners.
The reasons we may share your information include the following: to comply with applicable law, to process and coordinate your participation in the Securities Transactions; to maintain the personal information stored about you; to respond to legal investigations; to offer products and services to you, including the opportunity to participate in the Securities Transactions; to jointly market products and services with other companies; to market our affiliates' products and services to you; and to market nonaffiliated third parties' products and services to you. We may share your information within our organization, with affiliated persons and entities (such as Parent, is subsidiaries, affiliates and agents), and with nonaffiliated persons and entities. If you do not wish for us to share your personally-identifiable information with nonaffiliated third parties, you may opt out at any time by sending an email request to: optout@equityshift.com. Opting out of certain information sharing may prevent you from participating in the Securities Transactions.
Additionally, Registered Profile Holders may be required to submit personal information to one of more accredited investor verification service providers (each, a "Verification Vendor"). Declining to provide the Verification Vendor with your personally identifiable information (including certain financing information) can prevent you from participating in certain stages of the Securities Transactions. Any information you give to the Verification Vendor shall be subject to the Verification Vendor's privacy policy and terms of use. Accordingly, we are not in a position to guarantee that the information shared with the Verification Vendor will be secure under all circumstances and we offer no warranties or representations with regards to the maintenance or non-disclosure of such information. We will not share any information we receive from you with any Verification Vendor, but we will receive certain personal information you submit to such Verification Vendor in connection with your registration to participate in the Securities Transactions.
We may also use, share, or transfer your personally-identifiable information and non-personally-identifiable information as required or permitted by applicable law. You agree to provide valid, accurate, and complete information as requested and to keep all such information complete and current.
Registered Profile Holders will be entitled to review, correct, or amend their personal information, or to delete that information where it is inaccurate, by accessing the profile on the Website. This right shall only be limited where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks of your privacy, or where the rights of persons other than you would be violated.
If you unsubscribe from all of our services and/or decide not to participate in the Securities Transactions, we will retain your personal information as necessary to deter fraud, investigate illegal activities, respond to regulatory authorities, and comply with applicable laws and Company policies. However, if you discontinue participation in the Securities Transactions through our Website pursuant to this section, your personally identifiable information will not be used for marketing purposes, nor sold or shared with third parties, except as required by law, or in accordance with this Policy.
