Data Retention

We will retain your personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal information for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation with respect to our relationship with you.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

In some circumstances, we will anonymize your personal information (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may retain and use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Consent

Security

MypetBlu takes protecting your information seriously, and implements 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, such as during telehealth visits, whether conducted via audio, video, or chat. 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 MypetBlu in the United States, and is intended for use only in the United States. The Service is not designed for, and should not be used by, users outside of the United States, such as users located in the European Union, United Kingdom or elsewhere. You are not permitted to access the Site and/or Service from outside the United States and are liable for all consequences, penalties, damages, or fines that may be assessed if you violate this restriction, and agree to indemnify MypetBlu from any claims or inquiries that may arise from any such violation.

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.

Messages. MypetBlu may communicate with you electronically via in-app messages, SMS texts, e-mails or any other suitable form of electronic communication (“Messages”) for purposes related to the Service including, but not limited to, providing information regarding access, appointments, quality of service, and availability, as well as Messages that are ancillary to the Service, such as but not limited to Messages about new product announcements, product recommendations, and other promotions.

“Do Not Track” Requests

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. Because there currently is not an universally- recognized standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.

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 Service, as well as links to third-party websites. MypetBlu 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 Notice and terms and conditions of any such third-party application or website prior to using or providing information to the same.

Accessing and Correcting Your Information

Your personal information and Pet Care Data is accessible through, and may be reviewed and changed by logging into, your user account. You may also send us an email at support@mypetBlu.com to request access to, correct, or delete any personal information or Pet Care Data 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 Contributions, copies of your User Contributions or correspondence may remain viewable in cached and archived pages, or might have been copied or stored by other users. Proper access and use of information provided on the Site and Service, including User Contributions and correspondence, is governed by our Terms of Service.

You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your privacy rights.

We will only use personal information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request. If you choose not to provide this information, we may only be able to process your request to the extent we are able to identify you in our data systems and authenticate you as authorized to receive the information.

Once you make an opt-out request, you may change your mind and opt back in to personal information sales at any time by contacting us at legal@mypetBlu.com.

We reserve the right to extend the response time by an additional 45 days when reasonably necessary and provided consumer notification of the extension is made within the first 45 days. We will deliver our written response electronically.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of your request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily usable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

You may submit data subjects requests to know two times within any 12-month period. We can deny more frequent requests. There are no limits on the number of deletion or correction requests you can make. However, we may deny or charge a fee for manifestly unfounded or excessive deletion requests in line with our administrative costs for the deletion requests.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Within 45 days of a valid and verifiable data subject request, if we do not take any action on the request, we will let you know why, which is usually because we cannot verify your identity or we have verified your identity but identified that you are not and have not been a Colorado consumer in the relevant time period and not able to exercise rights under the CPA. We will provide information about how you may appeal this decision / non-action in that communication.

You may contact the Colorado Attorney General if you have concerns about the result of your appeal.

 We will not process personal information in violation of state or federal laws that prohibit unlawful discrimination against consumers.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CPA rights. Unless permitted by the CPA, we will not:

•           Deny you goods or services.

•           Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.

•           Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.

•           Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

Categories of Personal information and Purposes of Processing

You can learn more about the categories of personal information and sensitive data that we collect about consumers and the purpose for processing as set forth above.

Your Rights Under State Consumer Privacy Laws

If you are a resident of a state that has enacted a State Consumer Privacy Law, then, subject to certain conditions and exclusions, you have the following rights with regard to your personal data:

  • Right to access. You have the right to request access to and obtain a copy of any personal information that we may hold about you.
  • Right to correct. You have the right to request that we correct inaccuracies in your personal data. Although Utah law does not grant its residents this right, we grant Utah residents the right to request correction of their data.
  • Right to delete. You have the right to request that we delete personal information that we have collected from or obtained about you.
  • Right to opt out of the sale of personal information. You may request that we stop disclosing or making available your data in a way that is considered a “sale”.
  • Right to opt out of targeted advertising. You may request that we stop disclosures of your personal information for targeted advertising.
  • Right to withdraw consent. If you have previously granted us consent to process your sensitive data, you have the right to withdraw consent.
  • Right to opt out of profiling. You have the right to opt out of profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects. We do not profile in a manner that would result in legal or similarly significant effects and as such do not offer this right.
  • Right to appeal. If you live in Connecticut, or Virginia and are unsatisfied with our decision not to take action on your request to exercise one of your privacy rights, you may appeal our decision. Although Utah law does not grant its residents this right, we accept appeals from Utah residents using the same process.
  • Right to non-discrimination. If you choose to exercise any of the privacy rights described above, we will not deny our products or services to you, charge you different prices or provide a different level or quality of products or services to you unless those differences are related to the value of your personal data.

We will only use personal information that you provide in a request to authenticate the request. We will not further disclose the personal information and will retain it only as necessary for the purpose of authentication and to meet our legal obligations. We cannot fulfill your request if we cannot authenticate it and confirm the personal information that is subject of the request relates to you.

Authorized Agents

If you are a Connecticut resident, you may use an authorized agent (a person or entity acting on your behalf) to submit a request to opt-out out of our processing of personal information for the purposes of targeted advertising or sales. If you use an authorized agent to submit a request, we will not act on that request unless we are able to authenticate, with commercially reasonable effort, both your identity and the authorized agent’s authority to act on your behalf.

Notice to Nevada and Utah Residents

We do not disclose a user’s personal information to any third party for such third-party’s direct marketing purposes. Nevada S.B. 220 allows Nevada residents to opt-out of the sale of their personal information now in the event we change our Privacy Notice in the future. If you are a Nevada resident we want you to know that, in the event we sell your personal information, you will have choices and can opt out and can affect them by contacting us by email at support@mypetBlu.com. This may prevent or restrict your use of the Site and/or Service in the future.
