This Privacy Policy is governed by our Terms of Service located at https://www.ftplectures.com/terms_condition. All capitalized terms not defined herein are defined in the Terms of Service.

 

We may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU

We collect two types of information: personally identifiable information and non-personally identifiable information.

 

Personally Identifiable Information. Personally identifiable information means any information that identifies you or can be used to identify or contact you (“Personally Identifiable Information”).

We may request Personally Identifiable Information from you when you register for an Account, sign up for a monthly subscription or contact us.

 

Non-Personally Identifiable Information. When you simply access the Site or become a registered user of the Site, we may collect information that by itself cannot be used to identify or contact you, such as demographic information (such as age, profession or gender) (“Non-Personally Identifiable Information”). Non-Personally Identifiable Information may also include user IP addresses, browser types, operating system a user uses, a time-stamp, and other browser or device information, part of the Site a user accesses, domain names, and other anonymous statistical data involving the use of the Site. Non-Personally Identifiable Information is used to help us understand who uses the Site and to improve the Site.
