Policy Version: 1.9

This document governs the privacy policy of our website https://www.englishmomentum.com. Our Privacy Policy tells you what Personal Data (PD) we may collect from you, how we collect it, how we protect it, how we may share it, and how you can access, change, and limit our sharing of it. Any capitalized terms not defined herein will have the same meaning as where they are defined elsewhere on our website.

Definitions

‘Non-personal data’ (NPD) is information that is in no way personally identifiable. ‘Personal data’ (PD) means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. PD is in many ways the same as Personally Identifiable Information (PII). However, PD is broader in scope and covers more data.

A ‘visitor’ is someone who merely browses our website. A ‘member’ is someone who has registered with us to use or buy our services and products. The term ‘user’ is a collective identifier that refers to either a visitor or a member. A ‘customer’ is someone who has made a purchase. A ‘subscriber’ is someone who has an active subscription product. A ‘student’ is someone who is enrolled in an online course or takes Skype lessons.

Information We Collect

Generally you control the amount and type of information you provide to us when using our website.

Our Legal Basis for Collecting and Processing Personal Data

Our legal basis for collecting and processing your PD when you buy our products or services is based on the necessity of it to enter into a contract or to carry out our contract.

Our legal basis for collecting and processing your PD when you register for free membership, download free digital products, subscribe to podcasts, sign up for our newsletter and information about our products and services through our website opt-in forms is based on consent.

If You Don’t Give Us Your Personal Data

Our Security Policy

At English Momentum, we understand the importance of protecting your personal data.

When we collect your PD through our website, we will encrypt your PD before it travels over the Internet using industry-standard technology for conducting secure online transactions. We also use technologies such as secure routers and firewalls to protect your PD. Unfortunately we cannot fully guarantee secure data transmission over the Internet because of its nature.

Once we receive your PD, we have security measures in place to protect against the loss or misuse of your PD, though again we cannot fully guarantee against such loss or misuse. We strongly urge you to protect any password you may have for our website and not share it with anyone. You should always log out of our website when you finish using it, especially if you are sharing a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place.

Data Breach Procedures

If a data breach is suspected, it will be investigated, confirmed and reported to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. All users whose PD has been compromised will be notified via the email address stored in users’ personal profiles within 72 hours of finding the breach. However, if it is only anonymized data that has been compromised, notification is not necessary. To contain the breach, the site will immediately be shut down. Before going back online, a technician will identify the point of entry and repair the site.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to change this privacy policy at any time. If our company decides to change this privacy policy, we will post those changes on our website so our users and customers are always aware of what information we collect, use, and disclose. If at any time we decide to disclose or use your PD in a method different from that specified at the time it was collected, we will provide advance notice by email (sent to the email address on file in your account). Otherwise we will use and disclose our users’ and customers’ PD in agreement with the privacy policy that was in effect when their information was collected. In all cases your continued use of our website, services, and products after any change to this privacy policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
