Privacy Policy

Collection of Information

This Privacy Policy explains how information about you is collected, used, and disclosed by digitalfootprintla.com.com, its affiliates, and each of their respective successors and assigns (“we,” “our,” or “us”) when you access or use our websites, social media sites and other online products and services (collectively, the “Services”) or when you otherwise interact with us. This Privacy Policy does not, however, describe the practices of third parties that may collect information from you when you interact with them, including any third party, such as a professional, with whom you may interact through the Services (referred to as “Experts”). Any information provided directly to an Expert is treated in accordance with that Expert’s privacy practices, and we encourage you to ask the Expert for information about their practices before providing any information to them.

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will revise the date at the bottom of the policy, and, in some cases, we may provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to our website’s homepage or sending you a notification). We encourage you to review the Privacy Policy whenever you access the Services or otherwise interact with us to stay informed about our information practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy.

Information You Provide to Us

We may collect the information you provide directly to us. For example, we may collect information when you: create an account or profile; submit a project request; use the interactive areas and features of the Services; participate in a contest, promotion, or survey; sign up for our mailing list; make a purchase; apply for a job; communicate with us via third party social media sites; request customer support or otherwise communicate with us.

When you use our Services to find an Expert, we may collect information from you, such as your name, email address, zip code, phone number, information about your project and the type of Expert you are seeking, and any additional information you choose to provide. We may also collect information from you in connection with reviews you submit and any communications you have with Experts through the Services.

If you use the Services as an Expert, we may collect information about you and your company, including but not limited to your name, company name, address, email address, phone number, website URL, areas of expertise, prior work experience, education, qualifications, featured projects, photos, communications you have with other users through the Services and any other information you choose to provide.

Your California Privacy Rights

California’s “Shine the Light” Law

Companies that collect personally identifiable information (“PII”) from California residents and disclose such information to third parties (including affiliated entities) for marketing purposes must, in response to a request by a consumer, either (1) provide a list detailing the categories of information shared and the entities to which such information was provided, or (2) provide a mechanism by which a consumer may opt-out of having their information shared with third parties. We have elected the second option, and you may request that your PII not be shared with third parties by sending your request, including your full name, email address, and postal address, to:[email protected].

In addition, California resident users are entitled to know that they may file grievances and complaints with California Department of Consumer Affairs, 400 R Street, Suite 1080, Sacramento, CA 95814; or by phone at 916-445-1254 or 800-952-5210 or by email to [email protected].

California’s Online Privacy Protection Act

We do not track our customers over time and across third-party websites to provide targeted advertising, and therefore, we do not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. However, some third-party sites may keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, your web browser allows you to set the DNT signal so that third parties (particularly advertisers) know you do not want to be tracked.
