Cookies Policy

Last updated: January 3rd, 2019


BadFive (“us”, “we”, or “our”) operates https://www.badfive.com (the “Site”). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Information we receive from users of the Site.

We use your Personal Information only for providing and improving the Site. By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Information Collection And Use

While using our Site, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you. Personally identifiable information may include, but is not limited to your email (“Personal Information”).

We are using a commenting system through our Site that enables readers to comment anything on a respective article of their choice. For this commenting system we collect the name, a valid email and website of the reader along with the content of his/her comment (“Personal Information”). These are required for validating if the person is a physical and real person that we can contact in case of a violation of our Terms of Use. BadFive holds those comments’ personal information in a private manner without exposing them to any third party service or organization.

You have the ability to request your Personal Information by sending an email to our Data Protection Officer at [email protected]. You can also use that email in case you want to opt-out from our newsletter subscription(s) or manage your comments on badfive.com. If the content of the comments cannot disclose your identity, we will anonymize the comments in a right manner. We will respond as soon as possible in 1 to 2 working days.

Log Data

Like many site operators, we collect information that your browser sends whenever you visit our Site (“Log Data”).

This Log Data may include information such as your computer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Site that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics.

In addition, we may use third party services such as Google Analytics and Mail Munch. We use Google Analytics to collect, monitor and analyze the usage of the Site from users. This data does not include personally identifiable information. You can read the Google Privacy Policy here: http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. We use Mail Munch on some of our opt-in forms to collect email addresses for our newsletter subscriptions. This allows us to keep in touch with web visitors who want to hear from us regularly.

Communications

We may use your Personal Information to contact you with newsletters, marketing or promotional materials and other information which are collected through our cookies or opt-in forms. We will never contact you for any reason without any prior consent.

We use MailChimp as a third party service for our newsletter subscription management service. In MailChimp we store the emails of our newsletter subscribers and, in addition, we use that service in order to communicate with them. You can read MailChimp Legal Policies here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/.

Cookies

Cookies are files with small amount of data, which may include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a web site and stored on your computer’s hard drive.

Like many sites, we use “cookies” to collect information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Site.

You can opt-out at anytime from any cookies that our Site uses. You can read more about the ways in our Cookies Policy.

Security

The security of your Personal Information is important to us, but 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 Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

We do not use any other third party services for storing email addresses except of the MailChimp service. We won’t distribute your personal information to any other third party service or organizational entities, rather than their actual usage according to the BadFive purposes you opted-in.

In case of a security breach of your personal information, you will be notified prior to 48 hours via email.

We reserve the right to update or change our Privacy Policy at any time and you should check this Privacy Policy periodically. Your continued use of the Service after we post any modifications to the Privacy Policy on this page will constitute your acknowledgment of the modifications and your consent to abide and be bound by the modified Privacy Policy.
