We have the right to process this data for the purpose it was collected, based on your clear affirmative consent, and may also send you additional email marketing based on our legitimate interest in marketing to users who have demonstrated an interest in our Services. We may also offer you the op-portunity to “opt in” to our email list and will obtain separate consent for that.

When you become a customer, and make a purchase from us, we will collect information necessary to complete your transaction, including your name, email address, phone number, billing address, credit card and pay-ment details. We have the right to process this data based on our contrac-tual obligation to fulfill your purchase. We will not retain such information any longer than necessary. We may use third party data processors to transact your purchase and, in that case, we will not have access to your payment information.

We may also receive data from third parties such as payment processing com-panies, social media platforms, advertising companies, search engines and other technical services. We strive to use only the services of third party companies who we have researched and determined are in compli-ance with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).

2. When you request a program or product from us, whether free or paid, or “opt in” to receive communication from us, we will use the Personal Infor-mation you voluntarily provide to us to deliver such program, product or communication, including resources, emails, newsletters, marketing or promotional materials, and notifications of updates to our business. We may also use your Personal Information for marketing purposes by upload-ing it to our social media platforms to create look alike audiences and using your comments and feedback in other marketing efforts.

Our website does not use any information to make au-tomatic decisions.

By collecting and using your Personal Information, we are acting as a Data Con-troller with discretion to decide what information we collect, how we use it and store it. We may use a third party to act as a Data Processor to store and process your Personal Information. We strive to use only Data Processors who we have researched and determined are in compliance with the European Union’s Gen-eral Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).

By visiting and using our website, you acknowledge and agree that we may use your Personal Information in these ways, consistent with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

C. SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have the right to be informed about how your information is being shared. We take appropriate actions to protect and maintain the confidentiality of your Personal Information.

1. We will share your Personal Information in limited circumstances for specific, limited purposes with trusted third parties, including our email management service and other members of our team who assist us in op-erating our website, managing our business, or providing legal or account-ing services for us.

2. We will share the Personal Information that you provide to us when making a purchase with additional trusted third parties, including our pay-ment processor and financial gateway to assist in completing the financial transaction.

3. We may share your Personal Information in the event of a sale of our company or with a joint venture or affiliate partner if necessary.

Your Personal Information will only be shared and processed for the specific, lim-ited purpose as necessary. Your Personal Information will never be sold or given to any other entity without your consent, beyond what is required to complete a purchase or request. To the best of our abilities, trusted third parties with whom we share your Personal Information will keep such information confidential and will not disclose it to any other party, unless required to do so by law.

Although we aim to keep your Personal Information confidential, we may share your Personal Information if we are required to do so by law. We may also share your Personal Information if there is an attempted breach of security of our web-site, a perceived violation of this Privacy Policy or other agreements governing the use of our website or business, a threat to personal safety, property or rights of persons, including users of this website and others, or on the good faith belief that disclosure is necessary to identify or prevent an injury to our users, our prop-erty or the general public.
By visiting and using our website, you acknowledge and agree that we may share your Personal Information in these ways, consistent with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

D. STORAGE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have the right to be informed about how your information is being stored.

Personal Information collected from you is stored through a data management system. This information may be accessed by third parties who help us obtain, manage or store that Information. Our website and servers are located in the United States and are governed by the laws of the United States, the state of MICHIGAN and the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) as it applies to information collected in the European Union. All information collected by us will be processed in the United States. If information is collected by us outside the United States, it will be transferred to the United States for processing and storing and may be transferred back out of the United States for further processing. If your Personal Information is transferred to a country that has fewer protective laws than the country of your residence, it will be governed by this Privacy Policy.

By visiting and using our website, you acknowledge and agree that we may store and transfer your Personal Information in these ways, consistent with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

E. PROTECTION AND SECURITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

The security of your Personal Information, including information you voluntarily provide to us and that which we collect automatically, is important to us and we use our best efforts to protect it. We strive to use industry standard commercially acceptable online security measures, including a Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”) on our website and only share your information with third parties who we have researched and determined to be compliant with current safety standards. How-ever, no transmission over the internet or methods of electronic storage is 100% secure.
While we strive to protect your Personal Information, we are not responsible should an unauthorized third-party gain access to your information, without our consent. In the event that theemergingsoul.com is tampered with, your infor-mation may be inadvertently intercepted. If we become aware that a data breach has occurred, we will notify the appropriate authorities within a timely manner. You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for these actions and any damages that result from the unauthorized use of your Personal Information. You expressly agree to hold us harmless from any and all claims which may arise from the unauthorized use of your Personal Information.
Please note, when you voluntarily give out your Personal Information online through our website or on our social media page, in a way that makes it viewable by others, whether through a comment on a blog, a posting on a message board, or by any other means, it can be viewed by the public and can potentially be col-lected and used by others. You acknowledge and agree that we cannot guaran-tee the security of the information you share in this manner. You expressly agree that you disclose such information at your own risk and you assume all responsi-bility for its unauthorized use.

Because our core activities do not consist of processing operations which require regular and systematic processing of data subjects on a large scale, nor do we process sensitive data on a large scale, we have determined that The Emerging Soul is not required to appoint a Data Protection Officer.

F. RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We only retain the minimum Personal Information necessary to fulfill the specific, limited purpose for which it was collected. We also retain and process Personal Information for reasonable business purposes, including legal compliance, fi-nancial record keeping and dispute resolution.

G. RIGHT TO CONTROL PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have the right to control your Personal Information including the right to ac-cess, receive a copy of, update, edit, delete, erase or restrict the processing of your Personal Information.

You may request information on how your Personal Information is being used and processed, request access to, request a copy of, restrict our use and pro-cessing of, or request to update, edit, delete or erase your Personal Information at any time, free of charge, by writing to us at:
