This privacy policy has been compiled to better serve those who
are concerned with how their ‘Personally Identifiable Information’ (PII) is

security, is information that can be used on its own or with other information
to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual
in context. Please read our privacy policy carefully to get a clear
understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your Personally
Identifiable Information in accordance with our website.

all visitors to these websites very seriously and therefore set out in this
privacy policy our position regarding certain privacy matters and the use of
cookies for these websites.
This policy covers all data that is shared by a visitor with us
whether directly via jessicamassey.com and/or thesocialspeechie.com subdomains
or via email. This policy provides an explanation as to what happens to any
personal data that you share with us, or that we collect from you either

Information Collected Automatically:
Like many websites, we and our third-party service providers, such

time zone or location.
· Our third party service providers may provide us information that
tells us how our marketing ads, often placed on third party sites, performed
and who clicked on them. This information does not identify any specific
individual and is generally non-identifying. If we were to associate it with

known vulnerabilities in order to make your visit to our site as safe as

not stored or processed on our servers.

information we request may be collected by third party providers on our behalf.
We do not authorize them to use or disclose your personal information except in

analytics providers, we use Google Analytics, which is a web analytics service
offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data

Payment Providers: We may provide paid
products and/or services within the site. When we do, we use third-party
services for payment processing (e.g. payment processors). We will not
store or collect your payment card details. That information is provided
directly to our third-party payment processors whose use of your personal
information is governed by their own privacy notice. The payment processors we

Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard,

handling of payment information.
The payment processors we work with currently are:

typically one of the business assets that is transferred or acquired by a third
party. In the unlikely event that we or substantially all of our assets are acquired
or enter a court proceeding, you acknowledge that such transfers may occur and
that your personal information can continue to be used as set forth in this
privacy policy.

California Online Privacy Protection Act
CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial
websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach
stretches well beyond California to require any person or company in the United
States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting Personally
Identifiable Information from California consumers to post a conspicuous
privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected
and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared.
According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:
Users can visit our site anonymously.
Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on
our home page or as a minimum, on the first significant page after entering our
website.
Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can easily
be found on the page specified above.
You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes on our Privacy
Policy Page.
You can change your personal information by emailing us.
COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
When it comes to the collection of personal information from
children under the age of 13 years old, the Children’s Online Privacy
Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission,
United States’ consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which
spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect
children’s privacy and safety online.
We do not specifically market to children under the age of 13
years old.
CAN SPAM Act
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial
email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the
right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough
penalties for violations.
We collect your email address in order to:
· Send information, respond to
inquiries, and/or other requests or questions
To be in accordance with CANSPAM, we agree to the following:
· Not use false or misleading
subjects or email addresses.
· Identify the message as an
advertisement in some reasonable way.
· Include the physical address
of our business or site headquarters.
· Monitor third-party email
marketing services for compliance, if one is used.
· Honor opt-out/unsubscribe
requests quickly.
· Allow users to unsubscribe by
using the link at the bottom of each email.
If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future
emails:
· Follow the instructions at the bottom of each email and we will
promptly remove you from ALL correspondence.
