We do not sell your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We do not use your personal information to make fully automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects without appropriate human involvement where required by law.
Legal Basis for Processing
For users located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or other jurisdictions with similar legal requirements, we process your personal data only where we have a lawful basis to do so. The legal bases we rely upon include:
- Contractual Necessity: Processing is necessary to perform the contract we have with you, including delivering the educational Services you have purchased, managing your account, and processing payments.
- Legitimate Interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as improving our Services, ensuring security, preventing fraud, and conducting analytics — provided these interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
- Legal Obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject, such as tax reporting requirements or responses to lawful government requests.
- Consent: Where we rely on your consent to process your personal data — such as for direct marketing communications or the use of non-essential cookies — you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
For users in the United States, we process your information in accordance with applicable US federal and state privacy laws, including where applicable the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and similar state legislation. For California residents, additional rights and disclosures are described in Section 7 below.
Sharing and Disclosure of Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:
- Service Providers: We share information with trusted third-party vendors and service providers who assist us in operating our Services, including payment processors, email delivery services, analytics providers, cloud hosting providers, and customer support tools. These parties are contractually obligated to use your information only as directed by us and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
- Business Transfers: If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email or a prominent notice on our website of any such change in ownership and your choices in such event.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of OBLOUMI HOME CORP, our users, or the public.
- Enforcement: We may disclose information to enforce our Terms of Service, investigate potential violations, detect and prevent fraud, or address security or technical issues.
- With Your Consent: We may share your information with third parties when you have given us your explicit consent to do so.
- Aggregated or Anonymized Data: We may share aggregated or de-identified information that cannot reasonably be used to identify you with third parties for research, marketing, analytics, or other purposes.
When we engage third-party service providers, we conduct due diligence to ensure they maintain appropriate data protection standards and we enter into data processing agreements where required by applicable law.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, as described in this Privacy Policy, and to comply with our legal obligations. The specific retention periods we apply depend on the type of information and the purpose for which it is used:
- Account Information: We retain your account data for as long as your account remains active. If you close your account, we will retain your information for a reasonable period thereafter in case you choose to reactivate your account, and as necessary to comply with legal obligations.
- Purchase and Transaction Records: We retain billing and transaction records for the period required by applicable tax, accounting, and consumer protection laws, typically seven (7) years.
- Communications: We retain records of your communications with us for as long as necessary to resolve your inquiry and for a reasonable period thereafter to maintain service quality and address any follow-up needs.
- Marketing Data: We retain data used for marketing purposes until you opt out of marketing communications or withdraw your consent, after which we will retain only the minimum information needed to respect your opt-out preferences.
- Analytics Data: We retain aggregated analytics data for extended periods to identify long-term trends, but this data is anonymized and cannot be used to identify you personally.
When your information is no longer required for these purposes, we will securely delete or anonymize it. If complete deletion is not immediately possible (for example, because information is stored in backup archives), we will securely isolate it from further processing until deletion is possible.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights with respect to your personal information. We are committed to honoring these rights in accordance with applicable law:
- Right to Access: You may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you, along with information about how we use it and with whom we share it.
- Right to Correction: You may request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information we hold about you.
- Right to Deletion: You may request that we delete your personal information, subject to certain exceptions required by law or legitimate business purposes.
- Right to Restriction: In certain circumstances, you may request that we restrict our processing of your personal information.
- Right to Data Portability: Where processing is based on your consent or on a contract, you may request that we provide your personal information to you or to another controller in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
- Right to Object: You may object to our processing of your personal information where we rely on legitimate interests as the legal basis for processing.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: Where we process your information based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
- Right to Opt Out of Marketing: You may unsubscribe from our marketing communications at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any marketing email or by contacting us at privacy@obloumihomecorp.com.
California Residents (CCPA Rights):
If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, including the right to know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose, the right to delete your personal information, the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information (we do not sell personal information), and the right to non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights.
To exercise any of your rights, please contact us at privacy@obloumihomecorp.com. We will respond to verified requests within the timeframes required by applicable law (typically 30 days, with possible extensions for complex requests). We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.
Data Security
We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement a range of technical, administrative, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include:
- Encryption of data in transit using Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols.
- Encryption of sensitive data at rest using industry-standard encryption methods.
- Access controls that restrict access to personal information to authorized personnel only, on a need-to-know basis.
- Regular security assessments and monitoring of our systems for potential vulnerabilities.
- Use of reputable, security-certified third-party payment processors to handle payment card information.
- Employee training on data protection practices and security awareness.
However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. In the event of a data breach that affects your rights and freedoms, we will notify you and relevant authorities as required by applicable law.
You also play an important role in keeping your information secure. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password for your account, keep your login credentials confidential, and notify us immediately if you suspect any unauthorized access to your account.
International Data Transfers
OBLOUMI HOME CORP is based in the United States, and the information we collect is processed primarily in the United States. If you are accessing our Services from outside the United States, please be aware that your information will be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where our servers are located and our central database is operated.
The data protection and other laws of the United States may not be as comprehensive as those in your country. By using our Services, you consent to the transfer of your information to the United States. We take steps to ensure that any international transfers of personal data comply with applicable data protection law, including by implementing appropriate safeguards such as:
- Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission for transfers from the EEA to countries without an adequacy decision.
- The UK International Data Transfer Agreement for transfers from the United Kingdom.
- Other lawful transfer mechanisms as recognized and required by applicable law.
If you have questions about international data transfers or wish to obtain a copy of the safeguards we use, please contact us at privacy@obloumihomecorp.com.
Children's Privacy
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13 without verified parental consent, we will take prompt steps to delete that information from our systems.
If you are between the ages of 13 and 17, you may use our Services only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian who has agreed to our Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy on your behalf. We encourage parents and guardians to monitor the online activities of their minor children.
If you believe we may have collected information from or about a child under 13, please contact us immediately at privacy@obloumihomecorp.com so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.
