Note to Residents of the European Union: In order to comply with the requirements of applicable privacy laws, this Privacy Policy outlines the legal basis on which OttoLearn processes your personal data (also referred to as Personal Information herein). Please see the relevant sections below for additional information as required by applicable laws.
Definitions used in this Privacy Policy, unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, will have the same meaning given to them in the Master Subscription Agreement found here.
We believe your business is no one else’s. Your privacy is important to you and to us. So we’ll protect the information you share with us. To protect your privacy, OttoLearn follows key principles in accordance with worldwide practices for customer privacy and data protection.
We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you (Personal Information) or allows us to contact you. We use your Personal Information for four primary purposes:
The type of information that OttoLearn may collect from you includes, for example, your name, email address, address, phone number, and other information you choose to provide. Financial information is also collected by OttoLearn when you pay for the right to use OttoLearn’s products and the Service.
OttoLearn may collect Personal Information for other purposes where it has a legal duty or right to do so or where OttoLearn has a good faith belief that it is necessary to protect the property or rights of OttoLearn.
OttoLearn does not collect your Personal Information for any other purposes, unless it has your consent.
OttoLearn only collects Personal Information about an individual with the individual’s knowledge and consent. Generally, this means that OttoLearn collects personal information directly from the individual to whom it relates, whether via the Website, e-mail, telephone, or in person. Occasionally, OttoLearn may collect personal information from third party sources, but only with the knowledge and consent of the individual or where otherwise authorized by law.
Visitors to the Website should also be aware that anonymous technical information may be collected by OttoLearn as a result of a visit to the Website. For example, this information may include your IP address, browser type, operating system, domain name, access times and referring website addresses. OttoLearn uses this anonymous technical information for purposes such as diagnosing problems with OttoLearn’s servers, improving the operation and content of the Website and compiling aggregate and statistical information.
OttoLearn will not attempt to link or match such anonymous technical information with any personally-identifiable information unless OttoLearn has your consent, OttoLearn (or its service providers) have detected or reasonably suspect any unlawful use of the Service or a security breach, or OttoLearn has a legal duty or right to do so.
OttoLearn may use “cookies” on the Website. “Cookies” are small text files placed on computers that can collect and store a variety of information. Permanent cookies are stored indefinitely on a user’s hard drive unless manually deleted, while temporary cookies are automatically deleted from the user’s browser upon logging out of a website. Web browsers typically allow users to disable permanent and/or temporary cookies. For more general information on cookies see the Wikipedia article on HTTP Cookies.

However, OttoLearn reserves the right to charge such costs on a case by case basis in accordance with applicable laws. You will be notified in advance if charges apply.
OttoLearn will correct or amend the Personal Information in its files where it can be shown that the information is incorrect or incomplete.
We retain personal information only as long as is reasonable to fulfill the purposes for which the information was collected, or as otherwise required for legal or business purposes. For greater certainty, Neovation does not retain any client data uploaded to an account through use of OttoLearn.
