    What is Our Cookie Policy?

    Cookies are small files that a web server sends to Your computer or device when You visit a web site that uses cookies to keep track of your activity on that site. Cookies also exist within applications when a browser is needed to view certain content or display certain content within the application. Cookies hold a small amount of data specific to that web site, which can later be used to help remember information You enter into the site (like Your email or other contact info), preferences selected, and movement within the site. If You return to a previously visited web site or application (and your browser has cookies enabled), the web browser sends the small file to the web server, which tells it what activity You engaged in the last time You used the web site or application, and the server can use the cookie to do things like expedite logging in and retrieving user data and keeping Your browser session secure.

    We use cookies and other technologies to, among other things, better serve You with more tailored information, and to facilitate efficient and secure access to the Platform. We have provided, below, a full list of our cookies, categorized as described above. We have described the purpose of each, whether they are Sharetru or Third-Party cookies, and how to withdraw consent to their use. We have also indicated which cookies are “session cookies” (which last for as long as You keep Your browser open) and “persistent cookies” (which remain on Your hard drive until You delete them or they expire).

    We may also collect information using pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs or other similar technologies. These may be used in connection with some web site or application pages and HTML­formatted email messages to, among other things, track the actions of users and email recipients, and compile statistics about usage and response rates.

    How do We protect Your Personal Data?

    Sharetru is committed to protecting the security and confidentiality of Your Personal Data. We use a combination of reasonable physical, technical, and administrative security controls to maintain the security and integrity of Your Personal Data, to protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such information, and to protect against unauthorized access to or use of such information in our possession or control that could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to you. However, Internet data transmissions, whether wired or wireless, cannot be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, We cannot ensure the security of information You transmit to Us. By using the Platform, You are assuming this risk.

    Safeguards

    The information collected by Sharetru and stored on secure servers, is protected by a combination of technical, administrative, and physical security safeguards, such as authentication, encryption, backups, and access controls. If Sharetru learns of a security concern, We may attempt to notify You and provide information on protective steps, if available, through the e­mail address that You have provided to Us. Depending on where You live, You may have a legal right to receive such notices in writing.

    You are solely responsible for protecting information entered or generated via the Platform that is stored on Your device and/or removable device storage. Sharetru has no access to or control over Your device’s security settings, and it is up to You to implement any device ­level security features and protections You feel are appropriate (e.g., password protection, encryption, remote wipe capability, etc.). We recommend that You take any and all appropriate steps to secure any device that You use to access Our Platform.

    NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OF THE STEPS TAKEN BY US, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO GUARANTEE THE SECURITY OR INTEGRITY OF DATA TRANSMITTED OVER THE INTERNET. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NOT BE ACCESSED, DISCLOSED, ALTERED, OR DESTROYED DESPITE THE IMPLEMENTATION OF OUR PHYSICAL, TECHNICAL, OR ADMINISTRATIVE SAFEGUARDS. THEREFORE, WE DO NOT AND CANNOT ENSURE OR WARRANT THE SECURITY OR INTEGRITY OF ANY PERSONAL DATA YOU TRANSMIT TO US AND YOU TRANSMIT SUCH PERSONAL DATA AT YOUR OWN RISK.

    How can You Protect Your Personal Data?

    In addition to securing Your device, as discussed above, We will NEVER send You an e­mail requesting confidential information such as account numbers, usernames, passwords, or social security numbers, and You should NEVER respond to any e­mail requesting such information. If You receive such an e­mail purportedly from Sharetru, DO NOT RESPOND to the e­mail and DO NOT click on any links and/or open any attachments in the e­mail, and notify Sharetru support at https://support.ftptoday.com.

    You are responsible for taking reasonable precautions to protect Your user ID, password, and other User Account information from disclosure to third parties, and You are not permitted to circumvent the use of required encryption technologies. You should immediately notify Sharetru at support@ftptoday.com if You know of or suspect any unauthorized use or disclosure of Your user ID, password, and/or other User Account information, or any other security concern.

    How can You update, correct, or delete Personal Data?

    You can change your e­mail address and other contact information by editing your profile in the Platform. Please note that in order to comply with certain requests to limit use of Your Personal Data, We may need to terminate Your account and Your ability to access and use the Services, and You agree that We will not be liable to You for such termination or for any refunds of prepaid fees paid by You. You can deactivate your account by contacting the site administrator who created your account.

    Although We will use reasonable efforts to do so, You understand that it may not be technologically possible to remove from our systems every record of Your Personal Data. The need to back up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss means a copy of Your Personal Data may exist in a non­erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for Us to locate or remove.

    Can You “OPT­OUT” of receiving communications from Us?

    We pledge not to market third party services to You without Your consent. We only send e­mails to You regarding Your Sharetru account and services unless We have Your express consent to do so. You can choose to filter these e­mails using Your e­mail client settings, but We do not provide an option for You to opt out of these e­mails. If you consent to Our sending you marketing or other commercial emails or SMS text messages not related to your account and services, we will provide you with the option to opt out of such marketing emails and SMS text messages within the applicable message.

    We do not knowingly collect Personal Data from individuals under the age of 18 and the Platform is not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We request that these individuals not provide Personal Data to Us. If We learn that Personal Data from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, We will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records.
