2. How do you get my consent?

When you provide us with Personal Data on the Site, make a purchase, or download, use, or participate in any courses or educational materials, you agree to our collecting of Personal Data for the purposes listed in this Privacy Policy.

If we ask for your Personal Data for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

How do I withdraw my consent?

If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your Personal Data, at anytime, by contacting us at hello@elevateleadership.com

3. Use and Disclosure

We use your Personal Data to:

  • Provide you with the products and services available through the Site
  • Advertise additional services from Elevate through email or advertisements on the Site
  • Marketing and events-related communications

We may disclose your Personal Data if we are required by law to do so or in connection with litigation or other legal action if you violate our Terms of Use. We may also disclose your Personal Data to our business affiliates, such as Thinkific (as defined below) or third party payment processors, in order to provide you with the services that you have subscribed to on the Site. If we enter into a transaction in which ownership or control of the Site and/or related materials are transferred to another person or entity, we may disclose the Personal Data in compliance with applicable law in anticipation of such a transaction. Any person or entity that acquires the Personal Data will have the right to continue using it as set forth in this Privacy Policy unless you agree otherwise.

4. Thinkific

Our course and the Site are hosted by Thinkific Labs Inc. (“Thinkific”). They provide us with the online course creation platform that allows us to sell our product/services to you.

Your data is stored through Thinkific’s data storage, databases and the general Thinkific application. You are responsible for reviewing Thinkific’s privacy policy.

5. Third Party Services

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your Personal Data to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand how your Personal Data will be handled by these providers. We are not responsible for the privacy policy of any third party websites.

Certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your Personal Data may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your Personal Data used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Once you leave the Site or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you do so at your own risk and are responsible for your compliance with any applicable privacy policy and/or terms of use.

6. Cookies, Analytics and Advertising

We and the companies listed below use cookies, pixels, tags and similar technologies on elevateleadership.com. They help us run and secure the site, understand how visitors use it, and show and measure our ads on other websites and platforms. Some of these companies collect information about your activity on our site, such as the pages you visit, the links you click and the forms you complete, along with your IP address, device and browser information, and identifiers stored in cookies. Some of them can collect this information over time and across different websites, combine it with information they already have about you, and use it under their own privacy policies.

The tools we use are:

  • Cloudflare: protects our site from attacks and abuse and helps it load. It sets a cookie for that purpose.
  • Google Tag Manager: loads many of the other tools on our site.
  • Google Analytics: shows us how visitors use our site, such as which pages they view and when someone completes one of our forms.
  • Google Ads: measures whether people who see or click our Google ads later visit our site or complete a form and lets Google show our ads to people who have visited our site.
  • LinkedIn Insight Tag: measures our LinkedIn ads, gives us summary information about the professional characteristics of our visitors, and lets LinkedIn show our ads to people who have visited our site.
  • HubSpot: records the pages you visit on our site. If you submit one of our forms or click a link in one of our emails, HubSpot links that activity to your contact record with us. We also use HubSpot to send our emails.
  • Apollo: identifies the company a visitor appears to be from, based on IP address and other technical information, so we can understand which organizations are interested in our services.
  • Webflow: hosts our website.
  • Wistia: hosts the videos on our site and records viewing behavior, such as when a video is played and how much of it is viewed.
  • Embedded content: some pages show content from other companies. These include videos from YouTube and Embedly, tables and charts from Airtable and Tableau Public, a document from Flipsnack, and fonts from Google Fonts. When a page loads that content, your browser connects to that company. The company receives your IP address and browser information and may set its own cookies under its own privacy policy.

Contact lists. If you give us your contact information, for example by completing one of our forms, we may upload your email address to Google and LinkedIn in hashed form, which encodes it so it cannot be read directly. Those companies match it against their own users so we can show our ads to you on their platforms, or to other people with similar characteristics (sometimes called lookalike audiences). We upload only contacts who gave us their information through our own forms. We do not upload information we handle for our clients, such as information about participants in programs we deliver, or information about Ellie subscribers.

Selling and sharing. We do not sell personal information for money. Some state privacy laws treat the advertising activities described above as "sharing" personal information for "cross-context behavioral advertising" or as "targeted advertising." You can opt out of them using the choices below.

Your choices.

Browser and industry opt-outs apply only to the browser and device where you set them.

Do Not Track. Our site does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals.

Ellie. Our Ellie connector is covered by the Ellie Privacy Notice at elevateleadership.com/ellie/privacy. We do not use information from Ellie for advertising.

7. Security

To protect your Personal Data, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed.

If you provide us with your credit card information, the information is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with a AES-256 encryption.  Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.

8. Age of Consent

By using the Site, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence.

9. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the Site. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you that it has been updated.

10. Your Rights

Depending on your location and subject to applicable law, you may have the following rights with regard to the Personal Data we control about you:

  • The right to request confirmation of whether Elevate processes Personal Data relating to you, and if so, to request a copy of that Personal Data;

California Consumers

  • Exercising the right to know. You may request, up to twice in a 12-month period, the following information about the personal information we have collected about you during the past 12 months:

As described in Section 6 (Cookies, Analytics and Advertising), we use advertising tools from Google and LinkedIn on our website and may upload contact lists to those companies, which California law may treat as "sharing" personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. You can opt out as described in Section 6. We do not sell or rent the Personal Data.
  • Non-discrimination. The CCPA provides that you may not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.
