5. MAINTENANCE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

No purpose in this policy will require us keeping your personal information for longer than two years past the termination of the user’s account.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.

You should only access the services within a secure environment.
We may transfer, store, and process your information in countries other than your own. Our servers are located in the United States. If you are accessing our Sites or Apps from outside, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed by us in our facilities and by those third parties with whom we may share your personal information, in and other countries.

We will however take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this privacy policy and applicable law.

8. COOKIES AND WEB BEACONS
Cookies are small data files that a website transfers to your browser when you visit a website. Web beacons are transparent pixel images that are used in collecting information about website usage, e-mail response and tracking. For the sake of ease, we use “Cookies” to describe both traditional cookies and web beacons.
We may use Cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information. The use of Cookies is a standard practice among websites and online services. A Cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer to uniquely distinguish your visit to a website or use of an online service.

When you visit our Services, we place a Cookie in a directory of your computer’s hard drive. The information that Cookies collect includes the date and time of your visit and your registration information. Cookies offer you many conveniences for our Services.

They also allow us to streamline your visit to the Services based on your previous visits.
Cookies may be either permanent or temporary. HT uses both temporary and permanent cookies. A temporary or “session” Cookie is placed on your computer during your visit to any of our Services and is deleted when you exit your Internet browser and/or turn off your computer. A permanent or “persistent” Cookie means that the Cookie stays on your hard drive until you delete it. You can delete our permanent Cookie at any time by following the instructions contained in your browser’s help file, or by contacting the company providing your browser’s technical support. HT does not use cookies to store information such as credit card numbers, social security numbers or any other highly sensitive personal information.

You can read more about Flash Cookies at Adobe’s (the owner) website. We may use Flash Cookies to enable or control Flash-based content in the Services. Flash Cookies provide similar functionality as permanent Cookies and are persistent and do not go away when you exit your browser or turn off your computer. You can learn how to manage Flash Cookie settings and preferences for your computer by learning about how to use the Settings Manager on Adobe’s website.
You may configure your browser to accept or deny Cookies from our Services. However, disabling or denying Cookies from our Services may render parts of them inaccessible or may cause certain web pages not to properly load. There are also several services and websites which allow you to visit websites, including our Services anonymously. Again, you may not be able to access or use all of the web pages for the Services if you use these anonymizing services or websites, and if you have an Account, you will not be able to your Account via these anonymizing services or websites.

If you are resident in the European Economic Area and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection supervisory authority. You can find their contact details here: http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/bodies/authorities/index_en.htm

Cookies and similar technologies: Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies.

To otherwise opt-out, you can log into your account settings and update your user account
10. CONTACT BY HT
You do not have to participate in HT’s mailing lists (newsletters) in order to use the Services. However, if you elect not to receive such newsletters, you may miss valuable information on HT, its products and/or its services. HT will not contact you nor send you marketing materials unless you have accepted to receive such contact or information (i.e., you have not opted out).

HT does not knowingly solicit or collect information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are opening an account on behalf of yourself, you represent that you are the age of majority in your jurisdiction and fully able and competent to agree to use the Services and access our Sites, including, but not limited to, our Apps.

If you are between 13 and 18 years old, you may use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
12. LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
Our Services may contain several links to or integrations with other websites whose information practices may be different than ours. Neither HT, nor any of its parent, officers, directors, partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, employees, agents, representatives, vendors or suppliers is responsible for the content, privacy policies, products, services, reliability, viewpoint or accuracy of information on any such websites. We do not control and are not responsible for the collection of personal information by third party websites, including websites owned or controlled by our preferred financial partners, advertisers, vendors and/or websites not controlled or authorized by HT. Third party websites that are accessed through links on our Service or integrations with other websites have separate privacy policies.

If you enter or choose to leave our Services via links to other non-HT websites, your visits and actions on those websites are not covered by this Privacy Policy.
13. SECURITY
The security and confidentiality of your information is extremely important to us. We have implemented technical, administrative and physical security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access and improper use. HT makes access to your personal information subject to certain security measures, including technological controls such as “firewalls,” in accordance with industry standards. When the use of an HT web page involves the transmission of personal information or confidential information, HT may use Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) technology to establish a secure connection between your computer and HT. SSL allows the transmission of encrypted information from your computer to HT and back again and is currently the industry standard for Internet platform security. From time to time, we review our security procedures in order to consider appropriate new technology and methods.
Please be aware that no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so while HT strives to protect your personal information, HT cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you voluntarily give to HT.
HT reserves the right to monitor all network traffic to our Services to identify and/or block unauthorized attempts or intrusions to upload or change information or cause damage to any of our Services in any manner. Anyone using any of our Services expressly consents to such monitoring.

We reserve the right to make changes to any terms of this Privacy Policy at any time, however, we shall provide notification to you in advance of any changes becoming effective, such as by posting a notification on the Services, when you log into your account, or via email. If you continue to access and/or use any of the Services after the effective date of such changes, then such access and/or use will be deemed an acceptance of and an agreement to follow and be bound by the terms as changed.
