Privacy

Your Privacy is important to me.

It is Kate Martinez's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating this website. This Privacy Policy applies to hellokate.co (hereinafter, "I", "me", or "hellokate.co"). I respect your privacy and am committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide through this website. I have adopted this privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") to explain what information may be collected on this website, how I use this information, and under what circumstances I may disclose the information to third parties. This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected through this website and does not apply to collection of information from other sources.

This Privacy Policy, together with the Terms and Conditions posted on this website, set forth the general rules and policies governing your use of this website. Depending on your activities when visiting hellokate.co, you may be required to agree to additional terms and conditions.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Kate Martinez collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. The purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how website visitors use it. From time to time, Kate Martinez may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of the website.

This website also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on http://hellokate.co blog posts. Kate Martinez only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to hellokate.co choose to interact with the website in ways that require me to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information gathered depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, I ask visitors who sign up for a newsletter at http://hellokate.co to provide a username and email address.

Security

The security of your Personal Information is important to me, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While I strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, I cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Links to External Sites

Hellokate.co may contain links to external sites that are not operated by me. If you click on a third party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. I strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy and terms and conditions of every site you visit.

I have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third party sites, products or services.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Hellokate.co discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on my behalf or to provide services/products available at Kate Martinez's website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using this website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. I will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, hellokate.co discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Kate Martinez believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Dolittle's, third parties or the public at large.

If you are a registered user of http://hellokate.co and have supplied your email address, I may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new work or features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with me and my business. I primarily use my blog to communicate this type of information, so I expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send me a request (for example via a support email or via one of the website's feedback mechanisms), Ireserve the right to publish it in order to help me clarify or respond to your request or to help me support other users. I take all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
