HOW TO CONTACT US

1. THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We and our service providers may collect information when you provide information to us and when information is collected automatically from your interaction with the Services.

Personal Information

You may choose to give us personally identifiable information online to allow us to communicate with you, process your orders, or provide you with Services. Our online forms ask for a small amount of relevant information, such as name, company name, email address, postal address, and telephone number. If you make a purchase, we may ask for your credit card number and billing information.

The types of personal information Dendog Strategy Insights LLC may collect from you include:

Personal and business contact information, such as name, postal address, phone number, and email address;
Your friends’ contact information, including email or shipping address, which you may provide to us when you email a link to a product description or your wish list, or when you share our newsletter or deliver our products to a friend;
Financial information, such as your credit/debit card number or other billing information;
Other unique information such as user IDs and passwords, product functionality, product and service preferences, contact preferences, educational and employment background, and job interest data;
Geolocation data such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, physical location, and other similar location information collected when you request location based services;
Details of the products and services you have purchased from us or which you have inquired about, together with any additional information necessary to deliver those products and services and to respond to your inquiries;
Any additional information relating to you that you provide to us directly through our websites or applications or indirectly through use of our websites, applications or online presence, through our representatives or otherwise; and
Information you provide to us through our service center, customer surveys or visits by our representatives from time to time.

Usage Information

In addition to the information you may provide, Dendog Strategy Insights may collect information when you access or use the Services or a website “powered by” another company on behalf of Dendog Strategy Insights through our use of data collection technologies, including web beacons, Cookies (as defined in the following paragraph), and embedded web links. These technologies collect certain traffic information that your browser sends to a website, such as your browser type and language, browser history, access times, and the address of the website from which you arrived. They may also collect information about your IP address, unique device identifier, geolocation information, clickstream behavior (e.g., the pages you view, the links you click, and other actions you take in connection with Dendog Strategy Insights websites or “powered by” websites) and product information. Dendog Strategy Insights may also use some of these technologies in connection with emails and communications sent from Dendog Strategy Insights and therefore may collect information using these tools when you open the email or click on a link contained in the email.

Below is some additional detail on how we use Cookies and other technologies:

Cookies. Cookies are data files placed on a device when you use it to visit any of the Services (“Cookies”). We may use Cookies: (i) to collect and store certain information about you, (ii) for security purposes, (iii) to store your preferences and settings, (iv) to enable your sign-in, (v) to provide personalized product suggestions, (vi) to maintain and improve our website, (vii) to generate analytics regarding the performance of the Services, (viii) to facilitate site navigation, and (ix) to personalize your experience while using the Services. Cookies can remain in your computer for the duration of a browsing session or for a predetermined period of time. Cookies that remain in your computer for the duration of a browsing session are called "session" cookies. Cookies that remain in your computer for a predetermined period of time are called "persistent" cookies. We may use persistent cookies to show you recently-viewed products, provide you with product or service recommendations, or otherwise provide you with a customized experience.

If you would prefer not to accept Cookies, most browsers will allow you to: (i) change your browser settings to notify you when you receive a Cookie, which lets you choose whether or not to accept it; (ii) disable existing Cookies; or (iii) set your browser to automatically reject any Cookies.

Please be aware that if you disable or reject Cookies, some features and services offered or present on the Services may be slower or may not work or display properly.

Other Technologies. We may use standard Internet technology, such as web beacons (also called clear GIFs or pixel tags) and other similar technologies, to track your use of our Services. We also may include web beacons in email messages, newsletters and advertisements to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon. The information we obtain in this manner enables us to customize the Services we offer and measure the overall effectiveness of our online content and the products and services we offer through the Services.

Analytics Services. We use web analytics tools such as Google Analytics to assist us in understanding how people use the Services and related marketing and promotions. To manage your preferences with respect to Google Analytics click here. You can opt out of data collection or use by Google Analytics by clicking the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout (requires you to install a browser add-on).

Collection by Third-Parties. We may allow third-parties, including our consulting and technology partners to use tracking technologies, such as Cookies and web beacons, to collect non-personal information about your visits to this and other websites on the Services. This information generally enables them to track and gauge the effectiveness of our Services and of various marketing campaigns and to serve ads about goods and services that may be of interest to you when you visit other websites across the Internet.

Use of Public Information. Dendog Strategy Insights also collects information from publicly or commercially available sources that it deems credible. Such information may include your name, address, email address, preferences, company name, title, interests, and firmographic or demographic/profile data. The information Dendog Strategy Insights collects from its public or commercial sources may be used along with the information Dendog Strategy Insights collects when you access or use the Services. For example, Dendog Strategy Insights may compare the geographic information acquired from publicly available sources with the IP address collected by the technologies discussed above to derive your general geographic area.

3. HOW WE SHARE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Third Parties Providing Services on Our Behalf

Dendog Strategy Insights retains service providers and suppliers to manage or support its business operations, provide professional services, deliver products, services and customer solutions and to assist with marketing and communication initiatives. These providers include, for example, credit card processors, debt collectors, marketing and communications, hosting and IT service providers, email service providers, shipping agents, website management and support services, order fulfillment and delivery. We may share your information with these companies to enable them to provide you with services on our behalf, and for the purpose of conducting general business analysis. For example, we may share website usage and marketing information with our consulting and technology partners.

In addition, if you inquire about products, services, software or other goods that Dendog Strategy Insights does not sell directly, we may forward your information to a Dendog Strategy Insights partner, and they may reach out to you about your needs. In any event, we take reasonable steps to ensure that such third parties are obligated to use your information only to perform the service for which they are engaged. You expressly consent to your information being used as set forth in this Section.

From time to time, Dendog Strategy Insights participates in initiatives, which include websites "powered by" another company on behalf of Dendog Strategy Insights. As part of these initiatives, certain Dendog Strategy Insights services and communications may be delivered at the same time as those from other companies. Some of these services and communications offer you the option to share personal information with both Dendog Strategy Insights and the other companies participating in these initiatives. For example, you may receive communications from Dendog Strategy Insights and other companies or have the opportunity to register online for software products from multiple companies. If you choose to provide personal information only to Dendog Strategy Insights, we will not share this information with the other companies participating in that initiative. If you choose to provide personal information to the other companies, that personal information will be handled according to the privacy policy of those companies, which may differ from Dendog Strategy Insight’s policies and practices.

Legal Proceedings

We may also share your personal information:

In response to a subpoena or similar investigative demand, a court order, or a request for cooperation from law enforcement or other government agency; to establish or exercise our legal rights; to defend against legal claims; or as otherwise required by law; (In such cases, we may raise or waive any legal objection or right available to us.)
When we believe disclosure is appropriate in connection with efforts to investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding illegal activity, suspected fraud or other wrongdoing; to protect and defend the rights, property or safety of our company, our users, our employees, or others; to comply with applicable law or cooperate with law enforcement; or to enforce our website Terms of Use or other agreements or policies; and
In connection with a corporate transaction, such as the sale of our business, a divestiture, merger, consolidation, or asset sale, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy.

4. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

Dendog Strategy Insights does not target its online services to children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian of a child age 13-17 and you allow your child to register for any online services that Dendog Strategy Insights makes available to that age group, or register your child yourself, you agree that you have read, understand, and accept this Privacy Statement on your child’s behalf.

5. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS, CHOICE AND ACCESS

You have the right to request us to:

Not send you marketing or promotional emails or other communications;
Correct or update your personal information;
Not contact you in the future; and
Not share your personal information with third parties.

You can also ask us to delete your personal information; however, please be aware that we may need to retain some of your information in order to maintain our records, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. It may not always be possible to completely remove or delete all of your information from our databases without some residual data remaining because of backups and other reasons.

If you are a minor and have registered for an account on one of our websites, you have the right to request that we remove any content or information you posted on that website, so that it is no longer visible to the public.

If you no longer wish to receive marketing communications from Dendog Strategy Insights or if you wish to make any of the above requests, please:

Click unsubscribe in the email that you receive from us;

Please note that we may send you other types of transactional and relationship email communications, such as service announcements and administrative notices without offering you the opportunity to opt out of receiving them.

We are under no obligation to store your personal information indefinitely and disclaim any liability arising out of, or related to, the destruction of such personal information.

6. THIRD-PARTY LINKS AND INTEREST-BASED MARKETING

Links. There are a number of places on the Services where you may click on a link to access other websites that do not operate under this Privacy Statement. For example, if you click on an advertisement or a third-party logo on the Services, you may be taken to a website that we do not control. These third-party platforms or websites may independently solicit and collect information, including personal information, from you. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these platforms and websites and cannot guarantee the security of any user data collected there. We recommend that you consult the privacy statements of all third-party websites you visit by clicking on the "privacy" link typically located at the bottom of the web page you are visiting.

Interest-Based Marketing. We contract with third-party advertising agencies, marketing partners and other service providers to serve advertisements when you visit our website or other websites across the Internet. The advertisements placed on these third-party websites may use tracking technologies, such as Cookies and web beacons, to collect anonymous information about your visits to this and other websites. We may also share anonymous information with these companies in aggregate form and/or partner with these companies to provide interest-based advertising both on and off websites operated by Dendog Strategy Insights. In either case, the purpose of the sharing is to provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you, analyzing and improving the effectiveness of ads and emails, and improving and enhancing our website and its content.

To the extent that information is collected over time and across websites to help provide you with advertisements based on your interests, this information is anonymous and does not contain your personal information.

7. USER GENERATED CONTENT

We may provide areas on the Services where you can, for example, post product reviews or reviews about our website, ask or answer a question, communicate with others, and upload content (e.g. pictures, videos, audio files). Such postings, which may be administered by third-party service providers, are governed by our general Terms of Use and may also be subject to more specific terms that are integrated into that area of the Services. Service providers administering the postings may use tracking technology, such as Cookies, to collect anonymous information, and geolocation data, about your posting. Additionally, such postings may appear on other websites when searches are executed on the subject of your posting. Also, whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information on publicly-viewable web pages, that information can be collected and used by others. For example, if you post your email address, you may receive unsolicited messages. We cannot control who reads your posting or what other users may do with the information you voluntarily post, so we encourage you to exercise discretion and caution with respect to your personal information.

The Services may also include features that involve a shared platform with third-party services while you are on our websites. For example, we may allow you to sign in to your account on a social networking service to share information about Dendog Strategy Insights with friends on that service. If we offer or accommodate this kind of shared-platform or similar service, the third-party through which the service is provided, and with whom your information may be shared, will be identified by a recognizable icon. If you choose to use the service, information collected from you while you use our website may be transmitted to the third-party that operates the service. Additionally, once that information is shared with the third-party, its use of information about you will be subject to that third-party's privacy policy. Finally, your activity on any social networking service pages that, for example, refer to Dendog Strategy Insights, include the Dendog Strategy Insights logo, or involve a Dendog Strategy Insights promotion, is guided by the general terms of the service operator or any specific terms for that promotion. You therefore should consult that third-party's privacy policy to understand how your information may be used and shared by the third-party.

8. SECURITY

When you submit information to Dendog Strategy Insights through the Services, you should be aware that your information is transmitted across multiple computer systems on the Internet. Although we take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect your information, no method of transmitting or storing electronic data on the Internet is ever completely secure, and we do not guarantee the security of such information at any time.

9. TRANSFER TO OTHER COUNTRIES

While Dendog Strategy Insights is a U.S. company, we may collect and you may provide us with information wherever you are located. The Dendog Strategy Insights servers that process the data you provide us are located in the United States and other jurisdictions. By using the Services, or providing us with any information, you understand that the collection, processing, maintenance, transfer and storage of such information will occur in the United States and other countries where the privacy laws may be different from those in the country where you reside or are located, and waive any claims relating to the collection, processing, maintenance, transfer or storage of data outside of such country.

10. RIGHT TO MODIFY THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT

Dendog Strategy Insights reserves the right to modify this Privacy Statement at any time at its sole discretion. If we modify the Privacy Statement, we will post the revised statement here, with an updated revision date. Changes will be effective immediately (except for material changes) upon the posting of the revised Privacy Statement on the Services. In the event we make material changes to this Privacy Statement, we will notify you through the Services prior to the changes taking effect. Please note that if you do not agree to the modified Privacy Statement, you may not use the Services. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of the changes or any applicable notice period will mean that you accept those changes.

11. CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

California Civil Code Section 1798.83 gives California residents the right to request, from a business with whom the California resident has an established business relationship, certain information with respect to the types of personal information the business shares with third parties for direct marketing purposes by such third party, and the identities of the third parties with whom the business has shared such information during the immediately preceding year.
