Introduction

At PreBorn! (“PreBorn!”, “we,” “us,” or “our”), accessible via www.preborn.com (the “Site”), we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal information, as well as your rights regarding that information. We comply with applicable data protection laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) for California residents, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for EU residents, the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA), the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) for Canadian residents, and Australia’s Privacy Act for Australian residents.

Scope and Applicability

This Privacy Policy applies to all users of our Site and services. Your rights and obligations may vary depending on your location and the applicable laws. We have included references to multiple laws for transparency. If you reside in a jurisdiction offering specific privacy rights, we will honor those rights as required by the applicable legislation.

Information We Collect

1. Personal Information You Provide:
   We collect personal information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, postal address, telephone number, date of birth, and any other information you choose to share (e.g., when signing up for newsletters, creating an account, or submitting a contact form).
2. Information Automatically Collected:
   When you visit our Site, we may automatically collect certain information, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring website, and details about how you navigate and use our Site (e.g., pages viewed and time spent).
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies:
   We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience, analyze usage, and assist with marketing efforts. You can adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies or alert you when they are being used. Note that some features of the Site may not function properly without cookies.
4. Third-Party Data Enhancements:
   We may enhance the data we collect with information from trusted third-party sources for advertising attribution, analytics, and reporting. These enhancements do not include sensitive financial information such as Social Security or credit card numbers.

Use of Your Information

We use your personal information for the following purposes:

• To provide, maintain, and improve our Site and services
• To communicate with you, including sending newsletters, updates, and promotional materials (where permitted by law)
• To personalize your experience on the Site
• To provide customer support and respond to inquiries
• To comply with legal obligations and protect our rights
• To analyze how our Site is used and improve its performance

We will process your information only when we have a legal basis to do so. For EU residents, our legal bases may include your consent, the performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, or our legitimate interests.

Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information to third parties in exchange for money without your consent. Under CCPA’s broad definition of “sale,” certain sharing for advertising purposes may constitute a “sale.” If required by law, we will provide an opportunity for you to opt out.

We may share your personal information in the following circumstances:

• With Service Providers: We engage trusted third parties to help operate our Site and provide services (e.g., email delivery, customer support, payment processing). These service providers are contractually required to protect your information and use it only for the agreed purpose.
• Business Transactions: In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the new entity subject to the same confidentiality obligations.
• Legal Obligations and Protection of Rights: We may disclose your information to comply with a legal obligation (e.g., court order, subpoena) or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of others.

Data Transfers

Your personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own, including the United States, where data protection laws may differ. For EU residents, when we transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area, we ensure that appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place.

Data Retention

We will retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Once no longer needed, we will securely dispose of it.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

• The right to access, correct, or delete your personal information
• The right to object to or restrict certain processing
• The right to withdraw consent at any time (without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal)
• The right to data portability (for EU residents)
• The right to opt out of the sale of personal information (for California residents)
• The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (for EU residents)

To exercise these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to your request in accordance with applicable law.

Children’s Privacy

Our Site is not intended for children under the age of 13 (or 16 in the EU), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will take steps to delete it.

Security Measures

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. While we strive to protect your data, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Third-Party Websites and Services

Our Site may contain links to third-party websites or services not operated by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

Advertising and Analytics

We may use third-party advertising and analytics partners (such as Google) to deliver personalized ads and to analyze usage of our Site. These partners may use cookies or similar technologies. You can opt out of certain interest-based advertising through industry opt-out tools (e.g., aboutads.info).

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or for other operational reasons. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the updated policy on our Site and indicating the date of the latest revision. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
