INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT
Information You Provide
In general, you do not have to provide information to use our website.
You may choose to provide your information to us via the website. For example, certain services which you may have questions about may require you to provide information, such as your name, address, e-mail address and other contact information to find out more about the service.
Because it is not possible to anticipate every conceivable context in which information might be provided to us through our website, we can provide no assurance that any information you choose to provide to us via our website will be maintained as private. You should not submit private or confidential information to us via the website.
We collect information via the website when such information is provided by visitors who make a submission through our website. Information collected through our website may be stored in in our contact database where it may be combined with pre-existing contact information.
We use your information mainly to respond to your inquiries and communicate with you. We may also use your information in other ways naturally associated with the circumstances in which you provided the information.
When you contact us through the “Contact Us” link, we use the information you provide to send you the communications you request and/or respond to your inquiry and may also use the information to communicate with you about other topics we believe may be of interest to you.
Information We Collect By Automated Means
When you visit our website, our servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website (“Log Data”). This Log Data may include information such as your computer’s Internet Protocol address, browser type or the webpage you were visiting before you came to our website, pages of our website that you visit, the time spent on those pages, information you search for on our website, access times and dates, and other statistics. We use this information to monitor and analyze use of the website and for the website’s technical administration, to increase our website’s functionality and user-friendliness, and to better tailor the website to our visitors’ needs.
Like many websites, we use “cookies” to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that we may transfer to your computer’s hard disk for record-keeping purposes. We may use cookies to enable certain features of the website, to better understand how you interact with the website and to monitor aggregate usage by visitors and web traffic routing on the website. You can instruct your browser, by changing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit. If you do not accept cookies, however, our website’s customization features may not function, and/or you may not be able to use all portions of the website or all functionality of the website.
Certain pages on our websites may contain “web beacons” (also known as Internet tags, pixel tags and clear GIFs). These web beacons allow us or other entities to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, and the type of browser used to view the page.
Information from Other Sources
We collect information from other sources. The following are the categories of sources we collect information from publicly-available sources, including data in the public domain.
Additional Uses of Information
We collect and use information for other business and commercial purposes in accordance with the practices described in this Privacy Notice. Our other business purposes for collecting and using information, including in the last 12 months, include to:

- Prevent and address fraud, breach of policies or terms, and threats or harm.
- Fulfill any other business or commercial purposes at your direction or with your notice and/or consent.
Notwithstanding the above, we may use information that does not identify you (including information that has been aggregated or de-identified) for any purpose except as prohibited by applicable law. For information on your rights and choices regarding how we use information about you, please see the “Your Rights and Choices” section below.

We engage companies and individuals to perform services on our behalf for business purposes, including without limitation, to facilitate our website, provide the website on our behalf, and perform website-related services (e.g., without limitation, maintenance services, database management, web analytics and improvement of the website’s features) or to assist us in analyzing how our website is used. These service providers may have access to your information. These service providers are not authorized by us to use, retain, or disclose the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or to comply with legal requirements. We may permit them to use information that does not identify you (including information that has been aggregated or de-identified) for any purpose except as prohibited by applicable law.

- Facilitating Requests. We share information at your request or direction.
- Merger or Acquisition. We reserve the right to transfer information we have about you and that we have collected via the website in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets.

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under age 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information (as defined by the U.S. Children’s Privacy Protection Act, or “COPPA”) in a manner not permitted by COPPA. If you are a parent or guardian and you become aware that your child has provided us with information, or we have collected information from your child, in a manner not permitted by law, contact us at mail@alaimoboyer.com. We will remove the data as required by applicable laws.
STORAGE AND TRANSFER OF DATA
We implement and maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards for the website designed to protect against loss, theft, misuse, or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction of the information we collect through the website. Nevertheless, transmission via the internet is not completely secure and we cannot guarantee the security of information about you.
We are based in the U.S. and the information we collect is governed by U.S. Law. If you are accessing the website from outside of the U.S., please be aware that our website may collect information that may be transferred to, processed, stored, and used in the United States. Data protection laws in the U.S. may be different from those of your country of residence. Your use of the website or provision of any information therefore constitutes your consent to the transfer to and from, processing, usage, sharing, and storage of information about you in the U.S. as set out in this Privacy Notice.
YOUR RIGHTS AND CHOICES
If you would like to update your contact information or preferences, or if you would like to have your information removed from our mailing list, please contact us by e-mailing us at mail@alaimoboyer.com.
Alternatively, when you receive certain electronic materials from us you may make use of any “opt out” provision in such communications, or email us your preferences, so that we know that you no longer wish to receive such materials from us.
To the extent required by law, we provide users with (i) reasonable access to the information they provide through the websites, and (ii) the ability to review, correct and delete such information. To help protect your privacy, we take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access to your information.
Most browsers accept cookies by default. You can instruct your browser, by changing its settings, to decline or delete cookies. If you are multiple browsers on your device, you will need to instruct each browser separately. Your ability to limit cookies is subject to your browser settings and limitations.
Your browser may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no industry consensus as to what site and app operators should do with these signals. Accordingly, unless and until the law is interpreted to require us to do so, we do not monitor or take action with respect to “Do Not Track” signals. For more information on “Do Not Track,” visit All About Do Not Track – DNT.
Please be aware that if you disable or remove tracking technologies, some parts of the website may not function correctly.
Google provides tools to allow you to opt-out of the use of certain information collected by Google Analytics at Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Please note that if you opt out using this method, the opt out will only apply to the specific browser or device from which you opt out. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any opt out options or programs, or the accuracy of any other entities’ statements regarding opt out options or programs.
