Security

AugX takes protecting your information seriously, and has implemented reasonable measures to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. However, the safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to the Service or certain parts of the Site, 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 Site or through interactions with other Service users. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Service. Please use caution in determining what personal information to disclose.

Please note that the electronic transmission of information is not completely secure. We cannot guarantee that the security measures we have in place to safeguard information will never be defeated or fail, or that such measures will always be sufficient or effective. Any transmission of information is at your own risk.

Information and Data Transfers

The Service is administered by AugX in the United States. When we obtain information about you through your access to or use of the Site or the Service or when you input or import information to the Service from somewhere other than the United States, we may transfer, process, and store such information in the United States. If you access the Site and/or Service from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative, at your sole risk, and you are responsible for compliance with all applicable laws. If you are a non-United States resident and provide us with your personal information, or if you use the Service, you consent to the transfer to and processing of such information in the United States, which may have data protection laws less stringent than those in the country in which you reside.

Your Choices

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:

Cookies. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of the Site and the Service may then be inaccessible or not function properly.

Emails. AugX may send Service updates, Service notifications, promotional information (including, without limitation, AugX newsletters) and other communications to you via email. Promotional email communications will contain instructions describing how you can opt out of receiving future promotional emails from us. You may also email us at feedback@augie.studio to be removed from our mailing list. If you opt out of promotional emails, you may continue to receive non-promotional, transactional emails from us.

Limiting Provided Information. You can choose not to provide us with certain information. If you decline to provide certain information, however, please note that some features of the Site and/or Service may then be inaccessible.

“Do Not Track” Requests

Some web browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature. This feature lets you tell websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. These features are not yet uniform across browsers. The Site is not currently set up to respond to those signals.

Third Party Applications and Websites

The Site and/or Service may contain links enabling the electronic transfer of data from third-party applications to the Site or the Service, as well as links to third-party websites. AugX is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these applications or websites, and linking to an application or website does not constitute endorsement by us of that application or website. You should review the privacy policy and terms and conditions of any such third-party application or website prior to using or providing information to the same.

Assessing and Correcting Your Information

You may send us an email at feedback@augie.studio to request access to, correct, or delete any personal information that you have provided to us. 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 Content, copies of your User Content or correspondence may remain viewable in cached and archived pages, or might have been copied or stored by other users. Proper access to and use of information provided on the Site and the Service, including User Content, is governed by our Terms of Service.

Your California Privacy Rights

California law grants additional privacy rights to California residents. In particular, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CCPA) requires businesses to disclose, for the past 12 months, (i) the categories of personal information collected, (ii) the categories of sources of the collected personal information, (iii) the purposes for which the collected personal information is used, (iv) the categories of personal information disclosed for a business purpose, (v) the categories of any personal information sold or shared, and (vi) the categories of third parties to whom information was disclosed for a business purpose, sold, or shared. Under the CCPA, a “sale” means the disclosure of personal information in exchange for anything of value, and “sharing” means the disclosure of personal information for online targeted advertising. AugX provides these disclosures in the following table. (Note that AugX does not sell any personal information, even under the broad CCPA definition of a “sale.”)
