If you would like your name and email address permanently removed from our database, please contact us at privacy@getinlightened.com.

If you wish to opt out of promotional emails (but would not like to have your information permanently removed from our database), you may do so by following the “unsubscribe” instructions in the email, or by modifying your account settings.

Security: We use reasonable security precautions to protect the security and integrity of your Personal Information in accordance with this Policy and applicable law. However, no internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee that security breaches will not occur. Without limitation of the foregoing, we are not responsible for the actions of hackers and other unauthorized third parties that breach our reasonable security procedures.

Users should be aware of this when they leave the Service and review the privacy statements of each third-party website. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by the Service. We encourage our users to read the privacy policies of these other websites before proceeding to use them.

Amendments: Inlightened may modify or amend this Policy from time to time.

Notwithstanding any modifications we may make, any Personal Information collected by Inlightened from you will be treated in accordance with the privacy policy in effect at the time such information was collected, unless we obtain your consent otherwise.
