Log data
The Plumtree Marketing Academy is hosted on a platform that follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log data about visitors when they visit websites. All hosting companies do this and this is a part of the hosting services’ analytics. The data that is collected may include information such as your computer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser version, pages of our website that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics.
This log data is used for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movement on the website and gathering demographic information.
Cookies and web beacons
Like many other websites, the Plumtree Marketing Academy uses “cookies” to distinguish you from other users of our website. Cookies are files with a small amount of data that are sent to your browser from the website you visit and then stored on your computer’s hard drive.
These cookies are used to store information, including visitors’ preferences and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited.
For more general information on cookies, please read “All About Cookies” from Cookie Consent.
CCPA privacy rights
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California consumers of businesses that meet certain criteria have a variety of rights, including the right to:
· Request that a business that collects a consumer’s personal data disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal data that the business has collected about consumers.
· Request that a business delete any personal data about the consumer that a business has collected.
· Request that a business that sells consumers’ personal data not sell that consumer’s personal data.
At this point in time Plumtree Marketing, Inc. is not legally required to comply with the CCPA, as our company does not meet the Act’s criteria. However, it is our policy that we do not and will not sell any of the personal information collected through our Plumtree Marketing Academy website to any third parties.
GDPR data protection rights
The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is a data privacy law designed to give individuals more control over how their data are collected, used and protected online. Under GDPR, every user who is in the European Union is entitled to the following:
· The right to access – You have the right to request copies of your personal data. We may charge you a small fee for this service.

If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us. Note that due to the fact that Plumtree Marketing, Inc. has fewer than 250 employees, our organization is exempt from some of the GDPR’s record-keeping obligations.
Children’s information
The Plumtree Marketing Academy does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. Given the fact that our courses are meant for business owners and other professionals, we consider it unlikely that children would choose to fill out one of our contact forms and provide their Personal Identifiable Information to us. However, if you think that your child provided this kind of information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately and we will do our best to promptly remove such information from our records.
Teach:able platform
The Plumtree Marketing Academy website and all of the personal information which we collect about you through this website is hosted on the Teach:able platform. From time to time we may make backup copies of this data and store these backup copies outside of the Teachable.com platform as well.
All of the “back-end programming” that powers the site, and all of the data security for data stored on the site, is provided and maintained by Teachable.com.
Any pertinent aspect of Teach:able’s privacy policy, which is available at https://teachable.com/privacy-policy, is incorporated here as well.
Severability
Any provision of this Privacy Policy which is void, unenforceable or illegal in a jurisdiction is deemed to be severed as to that jurisdiction but only to the extend that it is void, unenforceable or illegal and will not affect the effect of the remaining provisions nor affect the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction.
