This Privacy Policy describes the information collected by Fohlio, Inc., (“Fohlio”, “us”, “we”), how that information may be used, with whom it may be shared, and your choices about such uses and disclosures. By using the website http://www.fohlio.com (the “Site”) and the services, features, content, applications, mobile device applications, plugins or widgets offered by Fohlio (collectively with the Site, the “Services”), you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy. This Policy forms an integral part of Fohlio’s Terms of Use, which is incorporated by reference. Any capitalized term used but not defined in this Policy will have the meaning defined in the Terms of Use.

Effective date: May 25, 2018. Last Updated: July 9, 2022

The Information Fohlio May Collect
- Information You Provide
Fohlio may collect and store any personal information you enter through the Services or the Site. This may include personally identifying information, such as your name, username, location, e-mail address, company name, company logo, pictures, images, and/or credit card information. We try our very best to safeguard your data. However, no system can be completely secure. Therefore, Fohlio does not promise, and you should not expect, that such information may not be inadvertently collected and that such personal information will remain secure.
You also may give us permission to access your information on other services. If you connect to the Services using your LinkedIn or other third-party service credentials (each, a “Supported Platform”), you authorize us to collect your authentication information, such as your username, encrypted access credentials, and other information that may be available on or through your Supported Platform account, including but not limited to your name, pictures, and connection lists. The information we get from Supported Platforms may depend on your settings or their privacy policies.
Fohlio does not store any user financial information, even though we may request information about you and your credit card and/or bank account. Fohlio does not store certain financial data due to its use of third party agents, such as Stripe, as its financial transaction facilitator. That financial information is handled, processed, and stored by the third party financial transaction processing companies. Please refer to such third parties’ Terms (https://stripe.com/us/terms) and Privacy Policies (https://stripe.com/us/privacy) for more information about how these parties use your information. To the extent that Fohlio uses third party providers such as Stripe for financial transaction services, we believe that such third parties take the privacy of your personal information seriously and will use your information only in accordance with the terms of their privacy policies.

- Agents
Fohlio employs or engages other companies and individuals (including but not limited to Stripe and Intercom) to perform business functions on behalf of the Site and Services.

These persons engage in a variety of functions which include, but are not limited to, removing repetitive information from user lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments and providing user services.
Any supplied billing information (if collected by and through the Site, as opposed to being directly inputted and collected by and through third parties such as Stripe) shall be encrypted for transmittal to a third party intermediary for processing. Such billing information is used only to bill you for those purchases you choose to make through the Site. The process is designed to protect your billing information against unauthorized misappropriation by third parties.
How we secure your information
As the technological landscape is constantly changing, no security system is absolutely secure.
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the information we collect and store. Unfortunately, no security measures are 100% foolproof, and as such no network or system (including ours) can be guaranteed to be 100% secure against destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to information we collect and store. Fohlio cannot and does not guarantee the security of any of its databases and information contained therein, nor can Fohlio guarantee any supplied information will be absolutely secure from interception during transmission to the Site over the Internet. If you believe your information may not be secure for any reason, please contact us immediately at privacy@Fohlio.com.
