Privacy Policy

Last Modified: February 8, 2021

ClipSentry.com, an extension of AV Registry LLC, and Takedown Piracy, Inc., respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through our compliance with the practices described in this privacy policy.

This policy describes our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing the personal data we may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit our website located at www.ClipSentry.com (the “Platform”). This policy applies to the personal data collected by us through our Platform (including in email, text, and other electronic messages between you and us), offline, or through any other means, regardless of the country where you are located. This policy does not apply to personal data collected by any third party (including our affiliates and subsidiaries), including through any application or content that may link to or be accessible from or on the Platform.

The Platform may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, services, social networks, or applications. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow the third party to collect or share data about you. We do not control these third-party websites, and we encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.

Please read this policy carefully to understand our policies and practices for processing and storing your personal data. By engaging with our Platform, you accept and consent to the practices described in this policy. This policy may change from time to time (see Changes to our privacy policy). Your continued engagement with our Platform after any such revisions indicates that you accept and consent to them, so please check the policy periodically for updates.

1. Data we may collect about you

Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data).

We may collect, use, store, and transfer different kinds of personal data about you which we have grouped together as follows:

We also collect, use, and share Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data could be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. 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 policy.

We do not collect any Special Categories of Personal Data about you (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, and genetic and biometric data). Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offenses.

If you fail to provide 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. In this case, we may have to cancel a service you have with us, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

2. How we collect data about you

We use different methods to collect data from and about you including through:

Cookies and automatic data collection technologies

Our Platform uses cookies (small files placed on your device) or other automatic data collection technologies to distinguish you from other Platform users. This helps us deliver a better and more personalized service when you use our Platform. It also allows us to improve our Platform by enabling us to:

You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting, certain parts of our Platform may become inaccessible and certain features may not work correctly. Unless you adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies, our system will issue them.

Our website pages and emails may contain web beacons (small transparent embedded images or objects, also known as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permits us, for example, to count website page visitors or email readers, or to compile other similar statistics such as recording Platform content popularity or verifying system and server integrity.

Third-party use of cookies and other tracking technologies

Some content or applications on the Platform are served by third parties, including content providers and application providers. These third parties may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use our Platform. They may associate the information collected with your personal data or they may collect information, including personal data, about your online activities over time and across different websites or other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content.

We do not control how these third-party tracking technologies operate or how they may use the collected data. If you have any questions about an application or other targeted content, you should contact the responsible provider directly.

3. How we use your personal data

We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any personal data:

We may use nonpersonal data for any business purpose.

4. Disclosure of your personal data

We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual, without restriction.

We may disclose personal data that we collect or you provide as described in:

We may also disclose your personal data to third parties:

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

5. Cross-border data transfers

We are based in the United States of America. For operational reasons we may process, store, and transfer the personal data we collect, in and to a country outside your own, with different privacy laws that may or may not be as comprehensive as your own. Where we do so, and where we are required to under local law, we will put in place appropriate mechanisms to ensure that your personal data receives an adequate level of protection where it is processed.

If you are a Canadian resident or otherwise located in Canada, please note that personal data transfers outside of Canada may result in your data becoming accessible to foreign jurisdiction’s law enforcement or other authorities.

If you are a European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), or Switzerland resident or otherwise located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, please note that your information will be transferred outside of the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, including to the United States.

Please note that we have elected to not participate in the EU–U.S. or the Swiss—U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks. Nevertheless, whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we will use reasonable efforts to ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring that the recipient third party agrees to contractual clauses or other appropriate safeguards.

Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA, UK, or Switzerland.

Except for data subjects located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, by submitting your personal data or otherwise engaging with our Platform, you consent to our transfer, storing, or processing.

6. Your personal data use choices

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal data you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your data:

Our Platform may, from time to time, contain links to and from the websites of our partner networks, advertisers, and affiliates, or plug-ins enabling third-party features. If you follow a link to any third-party website or engage a third-party plug-in, please note that these third parties have their own privacy policies and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any personal data to these third parties.

7. Accessing and correcting your personal data

You can access, review, and change your personal data by logging into the Platform and visiting your account profile page.

You may also send us a message through our contact form located at ClipSentry.com, on the main page, to request access to, correct, or delete any personal data that you have provided to us. In some cases, we cannot delete your personal data except by also deleting your user account. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or negatively affect the information’s accuracy.

8. Data security

The security of your personal data is very important to us. We use physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards designed to protect your personal data from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. We store all personal data you provide to use behind firewalls on servers employing security protections. We encrypt any payment transactions using SSL technology.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Platform, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. We urge you to take care when providing information in public areas of the Platform, which any Platform user can view.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data transmitted to our Platform. Any transmission of personal data is at your own risk. We are not responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Platform.

9. Data retention

Except as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law or regulation, 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. Under some circumstances we may anonymize your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you. We reserve the right to use that anonymous and de-identified data for any legitimate business purpose without further notice to you or your consent.

10. Children’s online privacy

We do not direct our Platform to minors and we do not knowingly collect personal data from persons under the age of 18 or as defined by local legal requirements. If we learn we have mistakenly or unintentionally collected or received personal data from a person under the age of 18, we will delete it. If you believe we mistakenly or unintentionally collected information from or about a minor, please contact us through the contact form at ClipSentry.com

11. Withdrawing your consent

Where you have provided your consent to the collection, use, and transfer of your personal data, you may have the legal right to withdraw your consent under certain circumstances. To withdraw your consent, if applicable, contact us through the contact form located at ClipSentry.com. Please note that if you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide you with a particular service. We will explain the impact to you at the time to help you with your decision.

12. Do Not Track policy

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that you can set in your browser. DNT is a way for you to inform websites and services that you do not want certain information about your webpage visits collected over time and across websites or online services. We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information it collects and that is why we provide you the ability to opt out. But we do not recognize or respond to any DNT signals as the Internet industry works toward defining exactly what DNT means, what it means to comply with DNT, and a common approach to responding to DNT. For more information about DNT, visit www.allaboutdnt.com.

Further, if you are a California resident and would like to opt out from the disclosure of your personal data to any third party for direct marketing purposes, please contact us through the contact form located at ClipSentry.com. If you opt out from permitting your personal data to be shared, you may still receive selected offers directly from us in accordance with California law.

16. Your EEA, UK, and Swiss privacy rights

If you reside in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, the following terms apply to you.

Legal Basis for Processing

We may process your personal data because you have given it permission to do so (e.g., by sending data through the Platform’s contact or order forms), because the processing is in our legitimate interests and it is not overridden by your rights, or because AV Registry and Takedown Piracy needs to process your personal data to comply with the law.

Your Legal Rights

If you reside in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. Your rights may include the following:

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us at ClipSentry.com

No fee usually required

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

What we may need from you

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

Time limit to respond

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

Right to file a complaint

If you reside within the EEA, you have the right to make a complaint at any time to the appropriate supervisory authority for your country of residence. See http://ec.europa.eu for those details.

If you reside in the UK, you have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk).

We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach your supervisory authority so please contact us in the first instance.
