Please read the following to learn more about our privacy policy. By visiting the 100DayChallenge.com website, you are accepting the practices outlined in this Privacy Policy.
What this Policy Covers. This Privacy Policy covers 100DC’s treatment of personal information that 100DC gathers when you are on the www.100DayChallenge.com website and when you use its services. Except where expressly stated, this policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that 100DC does not own or control, or to individuals that 100DC does not employ or manage.
100DayChallenge.com participates in and has certified its compliance with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework. We are committed to subjecting all personal data received from European Union (EU) member countries, and Switzerland, respectively, in reliance on each Privacy Shield Framework, to the Framework’s applicable Principles. To learn more about the Privacy Shield Framework,and to view our certification, visit the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Privacy Shield List.
Some of our data is provided by the human resources departments of our clients. In such cases, we apply the following principles which, in the case of any conflict, supersede any principles elsewhere in this policy:
We require that clients supplying human resources data to us regarding employees located in the EU or Switzerland certify the secure nature of their transmission to us. We will not receive or transmit data except over secure systems. We use such data only for the purpose of supplying services to the client or its employees; however, we may use non-personally identifiable information as stated elsewhere in this Policy and we may compile personally identifiable information into non-personally identifiable statistical information. Data access is limited to our employees, agents, consultants and contractors engaged in servicing our client or its employees. At the end of our arrangement with a client, we will retain only such information as is required for our business needs, for statistical purposes and for legal, accounting or regulatory purposes. Data which is no longer needed will be destroyed using adequate destruction techniques to ensure that the data is unrecoverable.
100DayChallenge.com is responsible for the processing of personal data it receives, under each Privacy Shield Framework, and subsequently transfers to a third party acting as an agent on its behalf. 100DayChallenge.com complies with the Privacy Shield Principles for all onward transfers of personal data from the EU, and Switzerland, including the onward transfer liability provisions.

How We Collect and Use Information
We may collect and store personal or other information that you voluntarily supply to us online while using the Site (e.g., while on the Site or in responding via email to a feature provided on the Site). 100DC only contacts individuals who specifically request that we do so or in the event that they have signed up to receive our messaging, attended one of our events, or have purchased one of our products. 100DC collects personally identifying information from our users during online registration and online purchasing. Generally, this information includes name and e-mail address for registration or opt-in purposes and name, postal address, and credit card information when registering for our events or purchasing our products. All of this information is provided to us by you.
We also collect and store information that is generated automatically as you navigate online through the Site. For example, we may collect information about your computer’s connection to the Internet, which allows us, among other things, to improve the delivery of our web pages to you and to measure traffic on the Site. We also may use a standard feature found in browser software called a “cookie” to enhance your experience with the Site. Cookies are small files that your web browser places on your hard drive for record-keeping purposes. By showing how and when visitors use the Site, cookies help us deliver advertisements, identify how many unique users visit us, and track user trends and patterns. They also prevent you from having to re-enter your preferences on certain areas of the Site where you may have entered preference information before. The Site also may use web beacons (single-pixel graphic files also known as “transparent GIFs”) to access cookies and to count users who visit the Site or open HTML-formatted email messages.
We use the information we collect from you while you are using the Site in a variety of ways, including using the information to customize features; advertising that appears on the Site; and, making other offers available to you via email, direct mail or otherwise. We also may provide your information to third parties, such as service providers, contractors and third-party publishers and advertisers for a variety of purposes. Unless you inform us in accordance with the process described below, we reserve the right to use, and to disclose to third parties, all of the information collected from and about you while you are using the Site in any way and for any purpose, such as to enable us or a third party to provide you with information about products and services.

To stop receiving our marketing emails, send an e-mail to us at [email protected] or follow the opt-out procedures set forth in such marketing emails.
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily make your personal information available for viewing by third parties online – for example on message boards, web logs, through email, or in chat areas – that information can be seen, collected and used by others besides us. We cannot be responsible for any unauthorized third-party use of such information.
Some of our third-party advertisers and ad servers that place and present advertising on the Site also may collect information from you via cookies, web beacons or similar technologies.

Other
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under the U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted 100DC infringes your copyright, you, or your agent may send to 100DC a notice requesting that the material be removed or access to it be blocked. Any notification by a copyright owner or a person authorized to act on its behalf that fails to comply with requirements of the DMCA shall not be considered sufficient notice and shall not be deemed to confer upon 100DC actual knowledge of facts or circumstances from which infringing material or acts are evident. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send to 100DC a counter-notice. All notices and counter notices must meet the then current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright for details. 100DC’s Copyright Agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement or counter notices can be reached as follows: [email protected].
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of 100DC and our respective assigns, successors, heirs, and legal representatives. Neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned without the prior written consent of 100DC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights and obligations under this Agreement may be freely assigned by 100DC to any affiliated entity or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries.

These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida and any dispute shall be subject to binding arbitration in Tampa, Florida.

Severability
If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision, and the remainder of this Provision will be given full force and effect.
