  1. Choice

As referenced above, Soma+Soul complies with the EU-US Privacy Shield and the US-Swiss Privacy Shield. As such, Soma+Soul agrees to honor requests, opt-outs, and setting changes regarding the data of citizens of the European Union. Individuals shall have the opportunity to opt out of providing information that will be disclosed to a third party (unless the third party is acting as an agent on behalf of the organization), if the data is used in a materially different way than its original purpose. For sensitive information, Soma+Soul agrees to obtain affirmative express consent before disclosure or using the data in a materially different way.

  1. Data Security

We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, destruction, and disclosure. Soma+Soul uses SSL certificates to securely encrypt information.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Soma+Soul uses password encryption to ensure the security of your account. Where we have given you or where you have chosen a password for access to certain parts of our Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. We urge you to be careful about giving out information in public areas of the Website like message boards. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Website.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Soma+Soul makes no representations or warranties as to the security of your data. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Website. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.

  1. Data Integrity and Purpose Limit

Consistent with the EU-US Privacy Shield and the US-Swiss Privacy Shield, Soma+Soul takes reasonable steps to ensure that the information received or provided is accurate, complete, current, reliable, and is compatible with the purposes for which it was originally collected. Soma+Soul agrees to adhere to this for as long as it retains such information. Data may be retained for as long as it serves its purpose. Such circumstances may include customer service, compliance, legal considerations, auditing, security and fraud prevention, or other purposes that may be reasonable within the circumstances.

  1. Accessing and Correcting Your Information

You can review and change your personal information by logging into the Website and visiting your account profile page. EU citizens are also granted access to personal information regarding them and are able to correct, amend, or delete that information if it is not accurate or if it has violated the EU-US Privacy Shield or the US-Swiss Safe Harbor, except where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to the individual’s privacy in the case in question, or where the rights of persons other than the individual would be violated.

You may also send us a message to info@somaandsoul.co to request access to, correct, or delete any personal information that you have provided to us. We cannot delete your personal information except by also deleting your user account. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

If you delete your User Contributions from the Website, copies of your User Contributions may remain viewable in cached and archived pages, or might have been copied or stored by other Website users. Proper access and use of information provided on the Website, including User Contributions, is governed by our terms of use, available at www.somaandsoul.co

  1. Recourse, Enforcement, and Liability

Effective privacy protection must include robust mechanisms for assuring compliance with the laws, recourse for those who do not comply with the laws, and consequences for the organization when they do not adhere to the EU-US Privacy Shield or the US-Swiss Safe Harbor.

Soma+Soul provides an independent mechanism by which individuals can lodge complaints and disputes are investigated expeditiously, at no cost to the individual. Please email us at info@somaandsoul.co to lodge any complaints.

Soma+Soul has follow-up procedures for verifying the assertions made regarding the privacy practices.

When Soma+Soul receives requests from outside organizations, including EU Member State Authorities, the company will comply with requests for compliance and will respond to investigations to resolve the complaint.

Organizations must arbitrate claims, provided that the individual has invoked binding arbitration.

If Soma+Soul has received an onward transfer of data, it has responsibility for processing the information and transferring it to the third party.

If the company becomes subject to an FTC or court order based on non-compliance, the organization shall make public any relevant Privacy Shield-related sections of any compliance or assessment report submitted to the FTC, to the extent consistent with confidentiality requirements.
