PRIVACY STATEMENT

You take online privacy seriously, and so do your friends at BAM INVESTOR LLC.

Thank you for choosing to be part of our community at BAM INVESTOR LLC. We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. 

Last updated: April 1, 2022

This Privacy Policy applies to the websites and services offered by BAM INVESTOR LLC (referred to as “BAM”, “we” or “us” in this Privacy Policy) including https://www.baminvestor.com/ , and all other BAM related websites, as well as all downloadable software, mobile applications, and other services provided by BAM and on which a link to this Privacy Policy is displayed (collectively, together with the Sites, our “Services”).

We respect individual privacy and value the confidence of our customers, employees, business partners, and others. We strive to collect, use, and disclose personal information in a manner consistent with the laws of the countries in which we do business.

This Privacy Policy describes the personal information that we gather on or through our Services, how we use and disclose such information, the steps we take to protect your information, and the rights you may have related to our information collection and use practices. By visiting the Sites or purchasing or using our Services, you accept the privacy practices described in this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into, and is subject to, the BAM Terms of Use at https://www.baminvestor.com/terms-of-use/

HOW AND WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT FROM YOU

User-Provided Information. We collect personally identifiable information voluntarily provided by users or visitors of our Services (also referred to as “Users” or “you” in this Privacy Policy), including when you visit the Sites, use the Services, register an account, fill out forms on the Sites, or otherwise contact us. 

The personal information that we collect on or through our Services may include your first and last name, email address, mailing address, telephone number(s), organizational affiliation, credit card or other billing information, and any other information you choose to provide when you use the Services or otherwise interact with us. 

Location Information. Some of our Sites and mobile apps may collect geo-location information. You may at any time opt-out from further allowing us to have access to your location data by turning off the location services in your mobile phone or browser settings. Please be aware that certain features of the mobile apps will not perform as expected if location services are turned off.

Automatically Collected Information. As is true of most websites and mobile applications, we or our third-party service providers and partners (discussed below) collect information from you over time using automated means such as cookies, beacons, or online data analytics tools. This “automatically collected” information may include internet protocol (IP) addresses, MAC addresses, device IDs, device and browser type(s), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, or clickstream data and other information about the way you use the Services. Depending on the jurisdiction in which you reside, this information may or may not be considered personal information. We also use these technologies to collect information regarding your interaction with BAM-related links appearing on third-party websites or in an BAM-generated email, such as whether you click on or forward a link or message. We may link this automatically-collected data to other information you provide, or we collect from you.

BAM does not directly track you when you visit other websites or engage in other activities online, so we do not register Do Not Track (DNT) signals from your browser. However, you should review the privacy policies of other third parties that may be operating on our Sites to determine whether they honor DNT signals. For more information on “do not track” options, please see: http://donottrack.us/ 

HOW DO WE USE YOUR INFORMATION 

We use the personal information we collect about you to solicit, service, and communicate with you or as otherwise disclosed in this Privacy Policy. In particular, we will use your information:

(a) As is necessary to provide and maintain our Services; 

(b) To fulfill contractual obligations with you (or at your request prior to you entering into a contract with us. e.g., to send you product or billing information); 

(c) To enhance the safety and security of our Services; 

(d) To monitor and improve our customer support responses and address Users’ concerns;

(e) We may use your personal data for testing, research, analysis, and Services development to improve our Users’ experience;

(f) To send marketing and non-marketing communications to our Users (we may do that so through various methods, including email, push notifications, text messages, in app or home page communications and ads, and ads on third party platforms); 

(g) For business transfers. We may use Your information to evaluate or conduct a merger, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets, in which personal data held by us about our Service Users is among the assets transferred; 

(h) In connection with legal proceedings. We may use personal data to investigate or address claims or disputes relating to the use of our Services, to satisfy requirements under applicable laws, regulations, or pursuant to legal process or governmental requests. 

BAM does not use your personal information to make solely automated decisions about you or to make decisions about you that are likely to produce legal or similarly significant effects.

The email address you provide for order processing or sign-up will be used to send you information and updates pertaining to your order, in addition to receiving occasional BAM news, updates, related product or service information.

BAM may use a third-party credit card processing company to bill you for Services that you request. The current credit card processing companies that BAM uses to store and process credit card transactions are called PayPal and Stripe. Therefore, we do not retain any sensitive financial data of our Users, including credit card information.

We use analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Jetpack to analyze trends, administer and improve our Services, track Users’ movements around the Services and on the Internet, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. These third-party analytics companies do not seek to identify individual users or to receive personally identifiable information except as may occur when they use your IP address. This information helps us to improve our Services and deliver a better and more personalized service. Many of these companies, such as Google Analytics, collect and use information under their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review. 

For more information about Google Analytics or Jetpack analytics and their privacy policies, please visit the Google Analytics privacy page and/or the Google Partners’ Page and the Jetpack privacy page. You may opt out of Google Analytics or Jetpack web monitoring by following the instructions on the Google Analytics Web Monitoring Opt-Out page or the Jetpack Web Monitoring Opt-Out page.

CHOICE TO OPT-OUT 

If you receive commercial emails from us, you may unsubscribe at any time by following the instructions contained within the email or by sending an email to the address provided in the “Contact Us” section below. Please be aware that if you opt-out of receiving commercial email from us, it is normally processed that day but may take up to 12 days for us to process your request. Additionally, even after you opt-out from receiving commercial messages from us, you may continue to receive otherwise permitted administrative notifications regarding the Services.

HOW DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

BAM may share personal data With BAM service providers and business partners, as long as such disclosure is necessary for providing our Services for you.

BAM may disclose your personal data on a need-to-know basis to any of our employees, officers, suppliers, subcontractors, research partners, consultants, lawyers, accountants, affiliates, members of our group of companies, and other professional service providers or agents, as long as such disclosure is necessary for providing the Services for you.  

BAM may also disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) comply with the law or legal process served on BAM or the Services; (b) protect or defend the rights of property of BAM and its Services; or (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of BAM employees, users of BAM products or services, or members of the general public.

Under the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR), we are required to tell you if we transfer or intend to transfer your personal information which we hold on you to countries outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”).

All such transfers shall be in accordance with the provisions of applicable laws and regulations, including the GDPR. We will provide at least the level of privacy and protection to your data that the applicable laws require us to provide.

Moreover, in accordance with the E.U. data protection law, you may have the right to request:  

(1) Access to your personal information: You have the right at any time to ask us for a copy of your personal information. Where we have good reasons, and if the GDPR permits, we can refuse the request or refuse to provide certain elements of the request.    

(2) Rectification: If the personal information we hold about you is not accurate, out of date, or incomplete, you have a right to have the data rectified, updated, or completed.

(3) Erasure of your personal information: In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that personal information we hold about you is erased (e.g., if the information is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected).

(4) Right to object to or restrict processing: You have the right to object to our processing of your personal information. You may also have the right to restrict our use of your personal information, such as in circumstances where you have challenged the accuracy of the information and during the period where we are verifying its accuracy.

 (5) Right to data portability: In certain instances, you have a right to receive any personal information that we hold about you in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. 

(6) Consent: Where any processing of personal information is solely dependent upon your consent, you have the right to withdraw such consent at any time.  

(7) Complaints: In circumstances where you believe that we have not processed your personal information in accordance with applicable data protection laws, you may file a complaint with the respective supervisory authority or data protection regulator. 

Most of the above rights may be subject to limitations and exceptions. We will do our best to provide reasons if we are unable to comply with any request for the exercise of your rights. Please note that in order to fulfill your request, it may be necessary for us to ask for proof of your identity in the form of a qualified electronic signature or a copy of your identity card.
