Privacy Policy

Last Revision June 18, 2020

OrangeGrid, LLC (“We,” “Our” or “Us,” as appropriate) takes the privacy of personal information you may provide Us seriously. This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the www.OrangeGrid.com website, however accessed, and to all information that you otherwise provide to Us in connection with the use of Our software (including that offered as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)), any support or maintenance services with respect thereto, or otherwise (collectively, the “Services”), and applies only to information gathered via the Services. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, you must immediately cease use of the Services.

Information collected

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide via the Services (“Personal Information”). The Personal Information collected through the Services may include some or all of the following: name, gender, or contact information such as street address, phone number, email address, and any other information you may voluntarily provide. You have the choice of whether or not to disclose Personal Information, however, some parts of the Services will be impossible to use if you do not disclose Personal Information. Therefore, at times, you may be requested to voluntarily supply Us with your Personal Information. Generally, this information is requested when you:

Submit an inquiry or request, or order our products and services;
Participate in some of the online activities We run from time to time;
Subscribe to or set up an account with the Services; or
Communicate with Us (via e-mail, phone, postal mail, etc.).

We may also collect uniquely identifying information about the mobile device that you use to access the Services (“Device ID”). We may use the Device ID to authenticate a user session or for the other purposes described below in the “Use of Personal Information” section and otherwise in this Privacy Policy. This Device ID functions much like a persistent “cookie” (described below), making it possible to authenticate a user without the need for a user login/password combination. If desired, you can disassociate a Device ID from your user account at any time by emailing Us at info@OrangeGrid.com. If you dissociate a Device ID from your user account, you may no longer be able to use certain features and functionalities of the Services.

We may use your Personal Information for any of the following purposes:

To understand how users use the Services.
To administer or to help Us develop and improve the Services or Our offerings.
To respond to specific requests from users.

To send notices of special promotions, offers or solicitations.

To provide you with the products and services you request or are otherwise offered through the Services.
To enforce applicable terms of use for the Services and or this Privacy Policy, and to otherwise comply with all laws, rules and regulations.

Pursuant to the California Online Privacy Protection Act, neither We nor any of the Services follow the Do Not Track setting of your web browser.

sharing of Personal Information

In connection with the sale of any aggregated anonymized data based on the Personal Information you provide Us.

We will not sell, rent, loan, transfer, or otherwise disclose any Personal Information to third parties except as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

Collection of Non-Personally Identifiable Information

We intend to continue improving the content and function of the Services. For this reason, We may monitor customer traffic patterns and Service usage to help Us improve the design and layout of Our Services. As such, in addition to Personal Information provided to Us as identified above, We may also collect certain non-personally identifiable information. For example, Our web servers may automatically identify computers by their IP addresses, and We may use certain tracking technologies (such as cookies), as further described below. We and each of Our service providers may use this non-personally identifiable information to analyze trends, administer the Services, track users’ movement and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. We will not link these IP addresses to Personal Information other than to the extent necessary to enforce the Services’ terms of service, including in forum environments.

Use of Cookies

Our Services may use tracking technologies such as “cookies” to provide users with tailored information upon each return visit. Cookies are a common part of many services that allow small text files to be sent by a website, accepted by your web browser, and then placed on your hard drive as recognition token. Every time you visit the Services, cookies may record basic technical information, such as your domain name, the address of the last URL visited prior to the Services, your browser, and your operating system. You do not need to enable cookies to visit the Services; however, some parts of the Services will be impossible to use if cookies are disabled. Cookies do not contain any Personal Information.

Updating Personal Information

You control the accuracy of your Personal Information. If your Personal Information changes, please correct, update or delete it by logging into your account at the Services.

After termination of your account, We will have no obligation to maintain or provide any of your Personal Information and may thereafter, unless legally prohibited, delete all of your Personal Information in Our systems or otherwise in Our possession or under Our control. We may also retain all or a subset of your Personal Information for business or legal purposes.

Protection of Information

While We will take reasonable security measures to protect your Personal Information, no transmission of data over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, given the electronic nature of the Internet, by using the Services, you accept the inherent risks in doing so, including, but not limited to, the security risks of interception, unauthorized access, the risks of corruption and the risks of viruses or other harmful devices.

Third Party Links

The Services may contain links to other applications or Services that may not be owned or operated by Us. We cannot control and are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such other applications or Services. Credit card or other financial information submitted by you during the online purchase of products and services through the Services are not visible, collected or stored by Us, either on Our website, or any other system managed by Us. All credit card transactions are processed directly via a third-party payment processor, and at no point during the payment transaction is credit card or other financial information available to Us. We encourage you to read the privacy statements of each application that you use and website that you visit.

Social Networking Sites

Integration with social networking sites may be present through the Services, and such integration is provided to enhance member experience. If you access the Services through your other social networking account(s), or access any social networking account(s) via the Services, you authorize Us to collect relevant information necessary to enable the Services to access and collect your data contained within that particular social networking service (e.g., such as your Facebook profile information). Please remember, however, that the manner in which such third party social network provider uses, stores and discloses your information is governed solely by that provider’s policies, and We will have no liability or responsibility for the privacy practices or other actions of any third party site or provider that you may enable and link to your online experience with Us.

Updates to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time in our sole discretion, with or without advance notice. We will post any changes on the Privacy Policy page of the Services so users are always aware of any change. We encourage you to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed about how we are helping to protect the Personal Information We receive from you. Your continued use of the Services shall constitute your agreement to this Privacy Policy and any of its updates. If We decide to use your Personal Information in a manner not set forth in this Privacy Policy, We will notify registered account holders by e-mail to the e-mail addresses on record. If you choose to visit the website or use any of our other services, your visit and/or any dispute over privacy is subject to this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use.
