Overview

Scriptura is dedicated to protecting your privacy. This privacy policy applies to information gathered through our websites we manage and control. In the normal course of business we collect personal and non-personal information. We strive to protect this information and hold it in confidence. We use the information we collect to communicate with you about our products and services and to deliver those products and services in an efficient manner. Scriptura employees and authorized agents and contractors will have access to your information as needed in the course of our business activities. Unless specifically stated otherwise, the information you provide or that is associated with you is never shared with anyone other than Scriptura employees, authorized agents, or contractors. Scriptura never trades or sells your personal information except as provided in this policy.

How We Gather Information

Scriptura and its affiliates gather and store information in many ways, including but not limited to the following:

  • Your employer – Your organization may purchase products or services from us and provide us information needed to provide those products or services.

  • Normal course of business – When you contact Scriptura, we may keep a record of your communication to help solve any issues you might be facing. We may use your email address to inform you about our services, such as letting you know about upcoming changes or improvements.

  • Marketing and communications channels – Scriptura may use LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook or other social media outlets to market and promote its offerings and services. Any communications you make with Scriptura using these media may be used by Scriptura in accordance with this policy.

Information We Collect and How We Use It

As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information may include IP addresses, browser type, referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We may collect device-specific information (such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone number). Scriptura may associate your device identifiers or phone number with your Scriptura account. We use this information to analyze trends, administer the site, and track how visitors interact with the site.

How We Protect Your Information

We safeguard the security of your information with physical, electronic, administrative and managerial controls. Likewise, we encourage you to safeguard your data and login information in a secure manner.

Access to Your Personal Information

You may request to review the personal information we store about you, and you may request corrections, amendments, or removal of this data provided that our doing so will not conflict with our legal obligations.

Legal Access to Your Information

We may share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Scriptura if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:

  • meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.

  • enforce applicable Terms of Service, Terms of Use, or other potential violation of Scriptura contracts or rules, including investigation of potential violations.

  • detect, prevent, investigate or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.

  • protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Scriptura, our users or the public as required or permitted by law.

Cookies

A cookie is a small file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. Scriptura typically uses both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. We use session ID cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time, and can be used when you return to our site to help identify you or allow you to log in, or on other third-party sites to communicate to you via online-marketing channels. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your internet browser’s help file.

Notice to End Users

Some of our products are intended for use by organizations. Services are made available to you through an organization (e.g. your employer) and the organization is the administrator of the services. The organization is responsible for the accounts and/or service sites over which it has control. If this is the case, please direct your data privacy questions to your administrator, as your use of the services is subject to that organization’s policies. We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of an administrator’s organization, which may be different from this policy.

Administrators are able to require you to reset your account password, restrict, suspend or terminate your access to the services, access information in and about your account, access or retain information stored as part of your account, and install or uninstall third-party apps or other integrations. In some cases, administrators can also restrict, suspend or terminate your account access, change the email address associated with your account, change your information, including profile information, and restrict your ability to edit, restrict, modify or delete information.

Even if the services are not currently administered to you by an organization, if you are a member of a team administered by an organization, or if you use an email address provided by an organization (such as your work email address) to access the services, then the owner of the domain associated with your email address (e.g. your employer) may assert administrative control over your account and use of the services at a later date.

If you do not want an administrator to be able to assert control over your account or use of the services, you should deactivate your membership with the relevant organization or use your personal email address to register for or access the services. If an administrator has not already asserted control over your account or access to the services, you can update the email address associated with your account through your account settings in your profile. Once an administrator asserts control over your account or use of the services, you will no longer be able to change the email address associated with your account without administrator approval.

California Requirements

You will not be discriminated against for exercising any of your privacy rights under the CCPA. In order to protect your information from unauthorized access or deletion, we may require you to provide additional information for verification. If we cannot verify your identity, we will not provide or delete your information.

GDPR Data Protection Rights

If you are an EU citizen or resident, there are some additional rights that may be available to you under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) to control how your data is used, including:

  • 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.

  • The right to rectification – You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate. You also have the right to request that we complete the information you believe is incomplete.

Our Policy Towards Children

The services are not directed to individuals under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that a child under 16 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact our support team.

Changes to our Privacy Policy

We may change this privacy policy from time to time. We will post any privacy policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice by adding a notice on our homepages, login screens, or by sending you an email notification. We will also keep prior versions of this Privacy Policy in an archive for your review. We encourage you to review our privacy policy whenever you use our services to stay informed about our information practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy. If you disagree with any changes to this Privacy Policy, you will need to stop using our services and deactivate your account(s), as outlined above.
