  • Any Personal Data that you give to Envol will be protected by industry-standard technology and codes of ethics.

For purposes of this Policy, the App shall be the initial point of contact between you and Envol and will serve as the initial point of collection of any personal data you may provide us.

Collection of Personal Information.

  • As a general rule, we collect both “Non-Personal Information” and “Personal Information” from our visitors and users.

  • Also, collected “Non-Personal Information” may include information that cannot be used to personally identify an individual person, such as anonymous usage data, general demographic information that we may collect, number of clicks, platform types, preferences you submit and preferences that are generated based on the data you submit.

  • Regarding “Personal Information”, visitors to the App may elect to interact with Envol in ways that require us to gather information that can be used to personally identify an individual person, such as: name (first and last), email address, password, phone number, geolocation coordinates, and personal picture. We will also ask visitors who sign up for the App to provide a username and email address.

  • Profile Data includes your username and password, purchases or orders made by you, your interests, preferences, feedback and survey responses.

For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific feature of the App. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy notice.

Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offenses.

Henceforth, if you elect to sign up using your social media credentials, by such action, we will collect your personal data as provided by such third-party platforms, but never more than the data such platforms can disclose according to your user agreement with them. If you close your social media account, or if you deauthorize our access, your access to our platform may be suspended. For more information, please read the terms and policies of such third-party platforms.

  • When you purchase a digital product subscription, we will collect your name and email address.

If you fail to provide some of the required Personal Data, where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with goods or services). In this case, we may have to cancel a product or service you have with us, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

Personal Information and data retention.

We will only retain your Personal Data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we will consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see Request erasure below for further information.

In some circumstances, we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Accordingly, by acknowledging your consent to this Policy, you are also acknowledging the applicable terms and conditions of such third-party platforms, which provide functionalities that include the creation of aggregated statistics. Envol may also collect aggregated statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its Services and may display this information publicly or provide it to others. Upon the case of any discrepancy or conflict among this Policy and the terms of them, the terms of the latter entities will govern.

For financial data, we do not collect or process credit or debit card information.

Please read their own payment policies for more information.

We will keep a list of any sub-processors that will be involved in the processing of your Personal Data due to the provision of our service and will inform you of any intended material changes concerning the addition or replacement of sub-processors before such changes are effective, thereby giving you the opportunity to object to such changes.

Advertising, Opt-out Choice.

From time to time, we may use Google Analytics, Ad Words, Double Click and/or Ad Sense tracking codes, and other third-party software tools (such as remarketing codes) in order to collect information and marketing analytics about the manner in which you browse our platform and services.

Ads appearing on our App and Site may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Policy covers the use of cookies by Envol and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

The served ads (also called retargeting ads) will be targeted based on your previous browsing history and may include retargeting codes. For example, third-party vendors may show you Envol’s ads on certain websites across the Internet, even after you leave our platform. The collected information is anonymized, meaning it cannot be tracked back to individuals. Using such tools, we learn how to optimize, and serve ads based on a user’s past visits, providing you with a better user experience.

We also collect data from your mobile device ID (i.e. the unique identifier assigned to a mobile device by the manufacturer) and/or Advertising ID (for App iOS 6 and later) instead of cookies in order to recognize you and track displayed web pages, along with their performance.

Like many site operators, we collect information that your browser sends whenever you visit us. This is called Log Data, which may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browser type, browser version, sections of our Services that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics.

We do not currently offer “do-not-track” or similar mechanisms. Unlike cookies, device IDs cannot be deleted, but you can select to reset your Advertising IDs in the “Settings” section of your mobile device, among other.

You can learn more about how to opt-out by browsing Google’s opting-out and privacy pages located at www.google.com, or the Network Advertising Initiative website located at www.networkadvertising.org.

Service eligibility.

Envol does not generally provide its Services to persons under the age of eighteen (18). Users under the age of eighteen (18) may register an account with us, and in such case, they will need the express, unequivocal consent of their legal guardians.

Accordingly, we reserve the right to request any and all applicable proof of identification and consent proof from our users, at any moment, without prior notice, and at our sole and final discretion. Upon the failure to provide such proof of age, we reserve the right to immediately freeze, block or cancel the account, with no liability.

Newsletter Subscription.

Occasionally, we will ask you for express permission and approval to receive electronic messages in electronic format which are then sent to an electronic address and that contains a message asking recipients to participate in commercial activities such as newsletters, purchase of products, services and invitations to participate in surveys.

We will send you service-related announcements on occasions when it is necessary to do so. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, or a new enhancement is released, which will affect the way you use our services, we might send you an email. Generally, you may not opt-out of these communications, which are neither commercial nor promotional in nature.

If you no longer wish to receive email updates and other commercial communications and messages via platforms such as ActiveCampaign or GetResponse, you may opt-out of receiving them by following the instructions included in each update or communication.

Safety of Collected Information.

All Personal Data will be stored on a secured VPS (virtual private server) using SSL certificates or analogous technology. All data uploaded by Envol containing user’s credentials will be stored in the MySQL database on our servers. The App will work mainly in ‘online’ mode, thus, continuous Internet connectivity is necessary in order to access the App. The section known as “The Toolbox” works also in offline mode.

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

The security of your Personal Data is important to us, but please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Henceforth, and you hereby consent to such access and transfer by simple disclosure. If you are accessing our platform, products and services from other regions, you ought to know that you are thereby transferring your Personal Data to such regions and, thus, you hereby consent to such transfer.
