Privacy Policy

Welcome to TrustyAce’s Privacy Policy

Your privacy is critically important to us. In fact, we take your privacy VERY seriously. Like, obsessively seriously.

Our aim is not just to comply with privacy laws but to actually earn your trust.

This Privacy Policy applies to https://trustyace.com (hereinafter, “us”, “we”, “Website”, “TrustyAce” or “https://trustyace.com”).

We have adopted this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) to explain what information may be collected on our Website or when you use our sites, services, mobile applications, products, and content, how we use this information, and under what circumstances we may disclose the information to third parties. This also covers how we collect, store, use, transfer, and delete that information.

This privacy policy also explains how we will comply with the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), the DPA (Data Protection Act) and the PECR (Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations).

It is TrustyAce’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website.

Your privacy is very important to us and it always will be. Trust me when I say that we despise spam and other unsolicited emails as much as you do!

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide us through the Website. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through the Website and does not apply to our potential collection of information from other sources.

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

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, TrustyAce 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, for example. TrustyAce’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how TrustyAce’s visitors use its website and how to further improve its offerings. From time to time, TrustyAce may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

TrustyAce may also collect potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on https://trustyace.com blog posts. TrustyAce 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 TrustyAce’s websites may choose to interact with TrustyAce in ways that require TrustyAce to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that TrustyAce gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we may ask visitors who sign up for a mailing list at https://trustyace.com to provide a username and email address.

We may use the information we collect in various ways, including:

Provide, operate, and maintain our website
Improve, personalize, and expand our website
Understand and analyze how you use our website
Develop new products, services, features, and functionality
Communicate with you, either directly or through one of our partners, including for customer service, to provide you with updates and other information relating to the website and for marketing and promotional purposes
Send you emails and newsletters. Each email promotion will provide information on how to opt-out of future mailings;
Respond to your comments or inquiries;
Provide you with user support;
Track, measure and improve advertising on the Website;
Find and prevent fraud

Children’s Information

Another part of our priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity.

The Website does not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 18. If a parent or guardian believes that the Website has personally identifiable information of a child under the age of 18 in its database, please contact us immediately at info [at] trustyace.com and we will use our best efforts to promptly remove such information from our records.

Security

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

Newsletters And Mailing Lists

TrustyAce may offer a newsletter. On the Website, you may opt to subscribe to our newsletter, which may be used for advertising purposes. All newsletters sent may contain tracking pixels. The pixel is embedded in emails and permits analysis of the effectiveness of the success of online marketing campaigns. Because of these tracking pixels, we may see if and when you open an email and which links within the email you click. Also, this allows the Website to adapt the content of future newsletters to the interests of the user. This information will not be shared with third parties.

When you subscribe to the mailing list, we collect your name and email address. This information is used specifically to tailor your experience and to send you the right content at the right time – and for no other reason.

You may opt out of the email list at any time simply by clicking “unsubscribe” at the bottom of any email.

Other Third-Party Use of Personal Information

We will not share your information with third parties unless you explicitly authorize us to share your information.

The Website may use third-party service providers to maintain various aspects of the Website. Each third-party service provider’s use of your personal information is dictated by their respective privacy policies.

Https://trustyace.com may use Google Analytics for analytics – this service tracks Website usage and provides information such as referring websites and user actions on the Website. Google Analytics may capture your IP address, but no other personal information is captured by Google Analytics.
