We collect information from and about you.

The information we learn from our customers and visitors helps us personalize and continually improve your experience. Generally speaking, we receive and store any information that you enter on the Sites, provide to receive Services, or give us in any other way. Types of information you may submit and we may collect include:

  • Contact Information. We use the information that you provide for responding to your requests, customizing goods or services offerings or suggestions for you, improving our business, and communicating with you. For example, we collect your name, address, and email address if you register on our Sites or otherwise engage us for Services. We may also collect your phone number, zip code, certain household information used to determine the extent of Services, or other information depending on the Services you request. 
  • Demographic Information. We may collect information like your gender and age, zip code, contact information, and areas of interest or specialty. We might collect this when you contact us or enter a promotion, sweepstakes or contest, or when you make a purchase from or otherwise transact or interact with 35 Mile Foundation or others pursuant to the Sites. 
  • Content and Transaction Related Information. When uploading pictures, reviews, or other information, a name, email address, and other identifying information may be required. Generally, the information collected helps us to communicate with you regarding content that you have submitted to us. For instance, we may use your email address to notify you of the status of the content you have submitted. Currently, 35 Mile Foundation does not anticipate you will be required to do any of the foregoing, but wishes to make clear how 35 Mile Foundation will handle such instances if so. 
  • Social Media and Third-Party Information. We may allow data subjects to share our products and services on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, or other social media sites. If you decide to share one of our products or services, we will get basic information from your social media profile like name, gender, profile photo, and friends or contacts. This information is collected by the social media company and is provided to us under the terms of its own privacy policy. You may be able to control the information that we receive from Facebook, for instance, using the privacy settings in one’s Facebook account. 

Please Note the Following Regarding Information Submitted Directly to Third-Party Service Providers. As mentioned above, in certain instances your data is not controlled by us and instead is sent directly to third-party service providers. We make use of these third-parties and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include processing payment, processing applications, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. Such third-parties have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, and the privacy policies of each third-party should be evaluated by you. We do not take responsibility for these third-parties’ use of your data except as statutorily required

Automatically Collected Information. We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many websites, we use “cookies” and we obtain certain types of information when your web browser accesses 35 Mile Foundation sites or advertisements. We may collect information about the browser you’re using. We might look at what site you came from, or what site you visit when you leave us. We may also look at clickstream data. We may combine this information with other information we collect from you. This includes anything we collect from third parties. If you use our mobile website, we may collect your GPS location and your unique device identifier.

Device Identifiable Information. We may collect information that does not identify you personally, but is linked to your computer or device (“Device Identifiable Information”). We collect Device Identifiable Information from you in the normal course of operating the Site. When you visit the Site to browse, read or download information, we automatically collect information about your computer that your browser sends, such as your IP address, browser type and language, access times, pages visited, and referring website addresses. We may use Device Identifiable Information we collect to analyze trends, help administer the Sites, track the movement of visitors, to learn about and determine how much time visitors spend on each page of the Sites, how visitors navigate throughout the Sites and to gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. We may also collect Device Identifiable Information through “cookies” or “web beacons” as explained below.

We may also collect information about your mobile device such as the type and model, operating system (e.g. iOS or Android), carrier name, mobile browser (e.g. Chrome, Safari), applications using the Sites, and identifiers assigned to your device, such as its iOS Identifier for Advertising (IDFA), Android Advertising ID (AAID), or unique device identifier (a number uniquely given to your device by your device manufacturer), sometimes referred to as a mobile carrier ID.
We may also collect your location information, such as your zip code or the approximate geographic area provided by your internet service provider (ISP) or location positioning information provided by the location services and GPS features of your mobile device when location services have been enabled.

We collect information from you directly. We collect information directly from you. We receive and store any information you enter on our Sites or give to us in any other way. For example, we collect information when you contact us, choose to provide us when engaging with the Sites or Services, and otherwise engage with retail or subscription service-related points of contact.

We collect information from you passively. Our Sites and Service offerings may also collect information from you passively. For instance, we might also collect information passively in our emails or through our apps. We may also collect information passively in connection with third parties. For example, to get purchase information from affiliates, we may gather information passively on their platforms. Tools we use include browser “cookies”, “Pixels” and “Web Beacons”.

“Cookies” are unique identifiers that we transfer to your device to enable our systems to recognize your device and to provide features, such as on 35 Mile Foundation’s Sites, personalized advertisements on other sites, and storage of items in your Orders or similar feature, or between visits. The ‘help’ feature on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Additionally, you may be able to disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as Flash cookies, by changing the add-on’s settings or visiting the site of its manufacturer. Because cookies allow you to take advantage of some of 35 Mile Foundation’s essential features, we recommend that you leave them turned on if you want to take advantage of our full suite of features.

“Pixels” “Web Beacons” (also known as web bugs, pixel tags or clear .gifs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that may be included on our services for several purposes, including to deliver or communicate with cookies, to track and measure the performance of our services, to monitor how many visitors view our services, and to monitor the effectiveness of our advertising. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the user’s hard drive, Web Beacons are typically embedded invisibly on web pages or in an e-mail.

Social media widgets such as the Facebook “like” button and LinkedIn’s “share” button or other interactive mini-programs may be on our Sites. These features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our Sites, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. These social media features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on the Sites. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it.

In addition to other third-party data collection applications, we may also use Google Analytics and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting to collect information regarding visitor behavior and visitor demographics on some of our services, and to develop website content. For more information about Google Analytics, please visit here. You can opt out of Google’s collection and Processing of data generated by your use of the services by going to here.

Using Other Technologies. We may also use cookies, web beacons, or other similar technologies to operate and provide you access to Sites, applications, services, and tools, and using the technologies necessary to identify irregular site behavior, prevent fraudulent activity and improve security.  Using these tools also allow you to make use of our functions such as shopping-carts, saved search, or similar functions.  These tools allow us to assess the performance of the Sites, applications, services, and tools, including as part of our analytic practices to help us understand how our visitors use the Sites, to determine if you have interacted with our messaging, determine whether you have viewed an item or link, or to improve the Sites’ content, applications, services, or tools. Through these technologies, we have the ability to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing or using our Sites, services, applications, or tools. This may include identifying you when you sign into our Sites or keeping track of your specified preferences, interests, or past items viewed so that we may enhance the presentation of content on our Sites.

Advertising or Targeting Related. We may use first-party or third-party cookies and web beacons to deliver content, including ads relevant to your interests, on our Sites or on third-party sites. This includes using technologies to understand the usefulness to you of the advertisements and content that has been delivered to you, such as whether you have clicked on an advertisement. If you would like to opt-out of the technologies we employ on our Sites, services, applications, or tools, you may do so by blocking, deleting, or disabling them as your browser or device permits. We may also be able to accomplish some of these goals if you email us at [info@35mile.org], subject to the particular facts.

We get information about you from third parties. For example, existing contracts, representatives, affiliates, and social media platforms or plugins may also give us information about you. Affiliates or other business partners may also give us this information, including any legacy service providers or those that the current iteration of 35 Mile Foundation used to be a part of. This might include information they gathered passively. We may also engage a data provider who may collect web log data from you (including IP address and information about your browser or operating system), or place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser to enable you to receive customized ads or content. We do not anticipate these cookies will contain personally identifiable information. The cookies may reflect de-identified demographic or other data linked to data you voluntarily have submitted to us, e.g., your email address, which we may share with a data provider solely in hashed, non-human readable form. To opt-out of these data provider cookies, please go to http://www.aboutads.info/choices.

How We Use Your Information

Information about our customers and those that visit our Sites is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others, though it may be shared with others for the purpose of carrying out our Services. We share customer information only as described in this Notice.

  • We use information to administer our Services. For example, we use information to assist with targeted suggestions, tracking, determining engagement, communications with you, and to evaluate the products we offer.
  • We use information to respond to your requests or questions. For example, we might use your information to respond to your questions about our services or offerings, for customer feedback, etc.
  • We use information to improve our products and services. We may use your information to make our Sites or Services better. We might use your information to customize your experience with us or understand your preferences. We may combine information we get from you with information about you we get from third parties.
  • We use information to communicate with you. We may send you emails, invites, telephone or written reminders, and regular text messages you have consented to receive, such as promotional messages and messages.
  • We use various tracking technologies. As described above, we, and other third parties we work with, use several common data collection technologies including cookies, pixel tags, and similar technologies. We collect personal information about users over time and across different Web sites when you use this Web site or service. We may also have third parties that collect personal information this way. We do this for many reasons, including to engage in interest-based advertising, to understand the activities and behaviors of customers and platform users, to recognize new and past visitors to the Sites, to present more personalized content and offers, to improve the Sites’ experience, optimize your customer experience, and provide site and service enhancements, to avoid repeatedly showing you the same advertisements or transaction related notifications, to serve customized advertising (whether on the Sites or others you visit) and so we can better understand our audience, customers, visitors, and their respective interests. We also work with third parties who provide us with certain web search services.
  • We use information for security purposes. We may use information to protect 35 Mile Foundation, our customers, the Sites, or our Services.
  • We use information for marketing purposes. If you register with our Sites or if you opt-in to receiving messages from us in any other way, we may send you information about special offers, new products, or new services. These might be third party offers or products we think you might find interesting. Depending on your choice we may send this type of information via email, text, call, push notifications in apps, or notifications by regular mail. We also use information to customize offers you receive. This includes using your purchase related history on affiliates or other third-party platforms.
  • We utilize third-party service providers, and use your information to perform those functions. We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders or delivering our Services, sending proposals, informing our customers or prospective customers, delivering documents, correspondence, sending invites and the like, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
  • We use information to communicate with you about your account or our relationship. We may contact you about your account or feedback. We might also contact you about this Notice or the Sites’ Terms.
  • We will share information if we think we have to in order to comply with the law or to protect ourselves. We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Terms and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of 35 Mile Foundation, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Notice.
  • We will share information with third parties who perform services on our behalf and affiliates. For example, we may share information with vendors who send emails for us. We may also share information with companies that operate the Sites or run a promotion. We may also share the information with our subsidiaries and affiliates. 
  • We may share information with our business partners. This includes sharing for marketing or advertising or for purposes of running joint promotions. For example, we will share information with our affiliates to administer services or assist with processing orders or understanding preferences, rendering Services, or we might share information that third parties can use to serve you with ads they think you will like. This could include sharing with our partners what ads you view, and those third parties may use information for their own marketing or advertising purposes.
  • We may share information with any successor to all or part of our business. As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy other telecommunication providers, stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that 35 Mile Foundation, or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
  • We may share information for other reasons we may describe to you.

We may engage in interest-based advertising.

35 Mile Foundation and our third-party partners may display interest-based advertising using information gathered about you over time across multiple websites or other platforms. This might include apps. Interest-based advertising could include ads served to you after you leave the Sites, encouraging you to return. They may also include ads we think are relevant based on your purchasing habits or online activities. For example, providing you with promotional materials we think you would like based on your purchase or 35 Mile Foundation involvement activity. These ads might be served on websites or on apps. They might also be served in emails. We might serve these ads, or third parties may serve ads. They might be about our products or other companies’ products.

To decide what is relevant to you, we may use information you make available to us when you interact with us, our affiliates, and other third parties in this way. For example, we or our partners might look at your selections or usage behaviors. We might look at these activities on our platforms or the platforms of others. We may work with third parties who might help gather this information or with whom we might share your information. These third parties might link your name or email address to other information they collect. That might include past purchases made offline or online, or it might include online usage information.

You can request access to certain information. You may request access to the personal information we maintain about you or request that we correct, amend, delete or block the information by emailing us at privacy@35mile.org. You may withdraw any consent you previously provided to us or object at any time on legitimate grounds to the processing of your personal information, and we will apply your preferences going forward.

You can control certain cookies and tracking tools. Your browser may give you the ability to control cookies, but it is dependent upon the type of cookie. Certain browsers can be set to reject browser cookies. Flash cookies cannot be controlled through your browser settings, so to control flash cookies, which we may use on certain websites from time to time, you can go here. If you block cookies on your browser, certain features on our Sites may not work. If you block or delete cookies, not all of the tracking activities we have described here will stop. Choices you make are both browser and device-specific.

You can control tools on your mobile devices. For example, you likely can turn off the GPS locator or push notifications on your phone. You can also control these settings in apps.

Telecommunications Specific Provisions. Note that if 35 Mile Foundation is ever deemed or classified as a telecommunications company, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) will have jurisdiction over a substantial portion of our operations. In recent years, the status of the FCC’s authority over broadband internet, in particular, has been in flux. We work to abide by all FCC guidance once promulgated. 

Moreover, be advised that if 35 Mile Foundation is ever deemed or classified as a telecommunications company, 35 Mile Foundation will be subject to certain governmental request for personal information that other types of entities are not. In such instances, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (“NTIA”), law enforcement agencies, and other entities may require disclosure of your personal information. When so, we will abide by the applicable law, which may not necessarily require or mandate notice to you (in some instances, the law may specifically preclude it). We ask that you keep this reality in mind when disclosing data to us or using our Services. 

If 35 Mile Foundation is ever deemed or classified as a telecommunications company, your Customer Proprietary Network Information (“CPNI”) will be subject to industry-specific requirements. With respect to statements in the remainder of this Notice that describe the use and disclosure of information, such as sale of that information to third-party marketers, note that an exception may exist for CPNI. Where CPNI is at issue, we will abide by the applicable law as it may exist from time to time, as further qualification to the remainder of this Notice. 

Specific State Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and other factors, specific state laws may apply. Note, however, that we make no representation or promise that such laws apply, it being acknowledged that this Notice alone does not grant you such rights even if you are a resident of such state. Moreover, to the extent language elsewhere in this Notice and the language of each jurisdiction-specific section below conflict, the language in the jurisdiction-specific section shall control where the state specific law applies as a result of all statutory requirements being met.

To the extent a given state’s laws apply because: (i) you enjoy the benefit and protection of the laws and government of each of the respective states and jurisdictions listed below, as applicable; and (ii) all threshold requirements for applicability are met, without exceptions or exemptions dictating otherwise, certain of the following state-specific provisions apply:

California

This supplemental privacy notice applies to California residents is provided in order to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), the Consumer Privacy Rights Act of 2020 ("CPRA"), and other California privacy laws.

Consumer Rights Under the CCPA and CPRAIf applicable, the CCPA and CPRA establish several rights for you, the consumer.  

You have the right to submit several requests regarding the personal information we have collected about you. You may make such a request for disclosure or deletion of personal information twice within any given 12-month period.  We will provide responsive information for a period of 12 months preceding the date of your request.  We will provide this information to you within a period of 45 days from the date of your request.  If needed, we may require up to an additional 45 days to complete the request but will provide notice to you of the need for the additional time prior to the expiration of the initial 45-day period.

In order to respond to your request, we will need to obtain enough information from you to verify that yours is a valid and legitimate request. This provides further protection for your personal information.

Right to Request Disclosure of Sensitive and Personal Information. You may request that we disclose the categories of sensitive and personal information that we have collected about you, the specific pieces of sensitive and personal information that we have collected about you, or both.  

Right to Correct Inaccurate Personal Information. In the event that any of the personal information we maintain about you is incorrect, you have the right to request that we correct it.

Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. You may request that we limit the use and disclosure of your sensitive personal information to that use which is necessary to perform the services or provide the goods reasonably expected by an average consumer who requests those goods or services, and other specific uses delineated in the CCPA and CPRA.  

The CCPA and CPRA define "sensitive personal information" as personal information that reveals any of the following:

  • A consumer’s social security, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport number;
  • A consumer’s account log-in, financial account, debit card, or credit card number in combination with any required security or access code, password, or credentials allowing access to an account;
  • A consumer’s precise geolocation;
  • A consumer’s racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, or union membership;
  • The contents of a consumer’s mail, email, and text messages unless the business is the intended recipient of the communication;
  • A consumer’s genetic data;
  • The processing of biometric information for the purpose of uniquely identifying a consumer;
  • Personal information collected and analyzed concerning a consumer’s health; and
  • Personal information collected and analyzed concerning a consumer’s sex life or sexual orientation.

Right to Opt-Out. You may request that we stop sharing your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. 

Right to Request Deletion of Personal Information. You also have the right to submit a request that we delete the personal information we have collected about you.  There are several exceptions to the consumer’s right to deletion; namely, we may retain your information despite your request for deletion if we require the information in order to do any of the following:

  • Complete the transaction for which the personal information was collected;
  • Provide a good or service requested by the consumer or reasonably anticipated within the context of a business’s ongoing business relationship with the consumer;
  • Otherwise perform a contract between the business and the consumer;
  • Detect security incidents and protect against “malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity;”
  • Use for internal debugging purposes or to repair software errors;
  • Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise free speech, or any other right provided by law;
  • Use the information to comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act;
  • Engage in research in the public interest that follows all other privacy laws (with consumer consent);
  • Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the consumer based on the consumer’s relationship with the business;
  • Comply with a legal obligation; or
  • Otherwise use the information internally in a lawful manner that is compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information.

How to Submit a Request. We offer consumers various distinct methods for submitting requests to exercise their rights under the CCPA and CPRA:

  • by emailing privacy@35mile.org; and
  • reaching out to those at the Company you have had prior contact with.

Submitting a verifiable consumer request does not require that you have an active account with us, nor are you required to create an account.  As previously noted, we will need to obtain enough information from you to verify your request in protection of your information before responding to your request.  Information that we may need from you to verify your request may include the following:

  • Legal name;
  • Email address;
  • Phone number;
  • Date of birth;
  • Last four digits of your social security number; and
  • Billing address.

We may decline a consumer request if the time and resources that must be expended in order to respond to the request outweigh the reasonably foreseeable impact to the consumer from not responding, as provided by California law.

Requests by an Authorized Agent. A California resident may use an authorized agent to submit a right to know request or a request to delete.  To use an authorized agent to submit such a request, the California resident must provide the agent with written authorization. In addition, the California resident may be required to verify their own identity with us or to authenticate the agent’s authorization. We may deny a request from an agent that does not submit proof, including written authorization from the resident, that the agent has been authorized by the California resident to act on their behalf.  However, such requirements will not apply where a California resident has provided the authorized agent with power of attorney pursuant to California Probate Code Sections 4000 to 4465.

Right to Not be Discriminated Against for Exercising the Rights to Disclosure or Deletion. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the CCPA and CPRA. Unless otherwise permitted by the CCPA, the CPRA, or other California law, we will not deny you goods or services, charge you a different rate for goods or services, provide you a different quality of goods or services, or suggest that any aspect of your service will change if you exercise any of your rights enumerated herein.

We Do Not Sell Your Personal Information. Currently, we do not sell your personal information. However, in the event that we are considering a sale, partial or complete, asset transfer, partial or complete, or other financing matter, we would make any and all necessary disclosures to you before certain information we possess concerning you may be accessed, disclosed, and/or processed by third parties.  Such third-party access would be governed by a written agreement that limits such access, disclosure, and processing in accordance with the CCPA, CPRA, and other applicable law.

Our Right to Change Privacy Notice. The foregoing policy is effective as of October 16, 2024. We reserve the right to change this policy at any time by notifying visitors to our website of the existence and location of the new or revised privacy policy. Changes to the policy will be posted to this page, and if changes are significant, a summary of the changes will be posted at the beginning of the policy.
