Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions

In General 

Protecting user privacy is important to Journey Meditation (“we”, “us” or “our”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and disclose information about you. This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect when you use our website (including all domains and sub-domains of journeymeditation.com), web applications, mobile applications, application programming interfaces (APIs), and other products and services (collectively, the “Products”) or when you otherwise interact with us whether in electronic, paper, or verbal format.

The information we collect is governed by United States (“US”) law. By accessing or using our Products or otherwise providing information to us, you consent to the processing and transfer of information in and to the US and other countries.

For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” is defined as information that (1) is recorded in any form; (2) is about, or pertains to a specific individual; and (3) can be linked to that individual.

Information We Collect

When you use our Products, we collect the following types of information:

Personal information: Your name, e-mail address, telephone number and information collected by tracking technologies as described below that may identify you as an individual or allow online or offline contact with you.

Account information: When you use our Products you may need to create an account with us.  In order to create an account, you will need to provide us with login credentials (which include your username and password), your name, email address, postal address, and phone number.

General usage data: When you use our Products we may collect information about the technical properties of hardware and software you use in conjunction with our Products. For example, we may collect the type and model of hardware and/or web browser you are using, referring or exit web pages, and the operating system version you are using.

When you use our Products we may also collect information about how long you use our Product in each session, features you use in our Products, how long you use our Products overall, the time and day you accessed our Products, etc.

We may record mouse clicks, movements, and other interactions with our pages or features to help us improve usability.

Location information:  When you use our Products, enable data services, use the browser or location-based functionality on your device, location information associated to your device (e.g. Global Positioning System (GPS) or similar satellite triangulation information, Internet Protocol address (IP address) information, carrier or tower ID, the BSSID (Broadcast Service Set Identifier) and MAC address (Media Access Control address) of Wi-Fi access points, and signal strength of visible Wi-Fi hotspots or wireless towers) may be communicated to the Company or our service providers. If we collect and subsequently store such information, it will be in a form that does not personally identify you (e.g. we do not maintain a system that would link specific individuals to a BSSID). We may process such information to provide you with or facilitate the provision of information and location-based services (e.g. mapping services, measuring traffic congestion, location-sensitive promotions or coupons). If you choose to use location-based services, you agree that such geographic location information may be processed to provide you with such services. If you choose to use location-based services or other applications to disclose your location to other persons or entities, you assume responsibility for the risks involved in doing so, and it is your responsibility to use them appropriately and according to applicable law. If you use third party products which provide location-based services, please review the third party’s terms and conditions and privacy policy regarding how your location and personal information will be processed, and how to opt-out of any location-based services and advertising provided by the third party.

Third party information: If necessary to fulfill our identified purposes, we may combine the information you submit to us with information obtained from other sources or third party offerings. For example, we may receive personal information about you from third parties involved in providing you with the products, services, hardware, software, and websites you are utilizing, such as from your email, social media, and online file storage provider to facilitate the integration of those products, services, software, and websites with our Products.  We treat all such personal information in accordance with this Policy and the terms and conditions between us and such third parties, if any, may also apply. However, the third party’s own use of your personal information in such cases will be determined by your agreement(s) with the third party, unless that third party is one of our service providers.

Quality assurance and customer service: Your customer service telephone calls and emails with us and our service providers, if any, may be recorded, logged, and/or monitored for quality assurance and customer service purposes such as to assist in addressing your inquiries, troubleshooting, training and analytics to identify trends and make improvements to our Products and customer service.  As part of the recording and logging of the calls and emails, we will collect information like the identity of the caller or sender of email, the date and time of the call or email, and the subject and resolution of the issue.

Cookies: We collect certain information about your use of our Products as described below under the heading “Our Use of Cookies, Log Files, Web Beacons, and Embedded Scripts.

Some of this information would not by itself identify you to us or be personally identifiable and is therefore considered non-personal information. If we combine any such non-personal information with other personal information available to us, the combined information will be treated as personal information in accordance with this Policy.

Purchase and Payment Information: We do not collect payment information via our website. All payment arrangements are done off-line. While payments may be processed through a third party, we may collect information to administer, manage, and fulfill the purchases you make.
