3. A Note About Children.
We do not intentionally gather Personal Data from visitors who are under the age of 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has submitted Personal Data to Walking with Purpose, we will attempt to delete the information as soon as possible. If you believe that we might have any Personal Data from a child under 13, please contact us at support@walkingwithpurpose.com.

4. A Note to Users Outside of the United States. Your Personal Data may be processed in the country in which it was collected and in other countries, including the United States, where laws regarding the processing of Personal Data may be less protective than the laws in your country. By providing your data, you consent to such processing and transfer.

5. Types of Data We Collect.
“Personal Data” means data that, by itself, allows someone to identify or contact you as an individual, including, for example, your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, as well as any other non-public information about you that is associated with or linked to any of the foregoing data. “Anonymous Data” means data that does not, by itself, permit the identification of individual persons and that is not associated with or linked to Personal Data. We collect Personal Data and Anonymous Data, as described below.

(a) Information You Provide to Us.

  • If you register for a general account, we will collect your username, first and last name, e-mail address, address, phone number, account type, password, and your relation to any parish or company when you create an account to log in to our Services.
  • If you register for our leadership program, we will collect your username and e-mail address when you create an account to log in to our Services.
  • When you order courses or merchandise and/or make a donation, we will collect information necessary to process your order or donation, as applicable, such as your shipping and billing information and payment information.
  • When you enter a promotion (e.g. a giveaway), we will collect your contact information and any other information you provide in connection with your entry.
  • If you subscribe to our e-mail newsletter, we will collect your e-mail address.
  • If you provide us feedback or contact us via e-mail, we will collect your first and last name, e-mail address, and zip code, as well as any other content included in your e-mail to us, in order to send you a reply.
  • We will also collect Personal Data at other points in our Site or Services that state that Personal Data is being collected.

(b) Information Collected via Technology.

  • Information Collected by Our Servers. To make our Site and Services more useful to you, our servers (which may be hosted by a third-party service provider) may collect information from your computer or device, including but not limited to:
    • The date and time of your visit and the web pages, content, and advertisements you view and links you click on while navigating within our Services;
    • Information about the type of content accessed via our Services;
    • The site you visited before and after visiting our Site;
    • Your Internet Protocol (IP) address (a numerical address assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so that other computers connected to the Internet can communicate with your browser online) that can sometimes be used to derive your general geographic area;
    • Search terms you enter using our Services or on a referral site;
    • Information about your device such as your device type, browser type, language and other settings, memory capacity, plug-ins, Internet domain, advertising identifiers, TCP configuration parameters, operating system, time zone and the names, versions and package IDs of software installed on your device; and
    • Information collected through cookies and other tracking technologies (see additional descriptions of these terms below).
  • Cookies. Like many online services, we use cookies to collect information. “Cookies” are small pieces of information that a website sends to your computer's hard drive while you are viewing the website. We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Services.
  • Pixel Tags. In addition, we use “Pixel Tags” (also referred to as clear Gifs, Web beacons, or Web bugs). Pixel Tags are tiny graphic images with a unique identifier, similar in function to Cookies, that are used to track online movements of Web users. In contrast to Cookies, that are stored on a user's computer hard drive, Pixel Tags are embedded invisibly in Web pages. Pixel Tags also allow us to send e-mail messages in a format users can read, and they tell us whether e-mails have been opened to ensure that we are sending only messages that are of interest to our users.
  • Do Not Track. We do not currently respond to “do not track” signals from web browsers.

Analytics Services. We use third-party analytics services including Google Analytics (“Analytics Services”), to help analyze how users use our Site. The information generated by the Cookies or other technologies about your use of our Site (the “Analytics Information”) is transmitted to the Analytics Services. The Analytics Services use Analytics Information to compile reports on user activity. The Analytics Services may also transfer the Analytics Information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process Analytics Information on their behalf. Each Analytics Service's ability to use and share Analytics Information is restricted by such Analytics Service's terms of use and privacy policy. By using our Site, you consent to the processing of data about you by Analytics Services in the manner and for the purposes set out above. For a full list of Analytics Services, please contact us at support@walkingwithpurpose.com. To learn more about how Google uses data, visit www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

(c) Information Collected from You About Others.
If you decide to invite a third party to visit our Site or use our Services, we will collect your and the third party's names and e-mail addresses in order to send an e-mail and follow up with the third party. We rely upon you to obtain whatever consents from the third party that may be required by law to allow us to access and upload the third party's names and e-mail addresses as required above. You or the third party may contact us at support@walkingwithpurpose.com to request the removal of this information from our database.

(d) Information Collected from Third Party Companies.
We may receive Personal and/or Anonymous Data about you from companies that provide our Services by way of a co-branded or private-labeled website. These third party companies may supply us with Personal Data. We may add this information to the information we have already collected from you via our Site. For instance, if you register for one of our events through Event Brite, we may collect your Personal Data to enable you to participate in our event and to add you to our mailing list.
