Syndicate Legal Services (a dba for Syndicate Legal & Financial, LLC) and our subsidiaries (Primarily "Syndicate Subscription Legal Plans," "Syndicate Legal Support Services" and "Syndicate Custom Legal Documents") and other affiliates (collectively, “Syndicate Legal Services,” “we,” “us” or “our”) are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and disclose the Personal Information that you provide during your online and offline interactions with us in using our websites that link to this Privacy Policy (the "Sites") or mobile application, or that we otherwise collect from and about you. We refer collectively to all of the activities through which we collect information from and about you as the "Services."

As used in this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” means any information that can be used to individually identify a person or household, and may include, but is not limited to, name, email address, postal or other physical address, credit or debit card number, title, and other information reasonably linkable to an individual or household with or without other identifying information in our possession.

We may update this policy from time to time, and we will provide notice of any changes as required by applicable law, which may include, for example, by sending an email notification, providing notice through the Sites or updating the “Last Updated” date at the beginning of this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy whenever you use or access the Sites or otherwise interact with us to stay informed about our information practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy.

This Privacy Policy contains the following sections:
• Categories of Personal Information we collect
• How we use Personal Information
• Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
• Our disclosure of Personal Information
• Rights and controls of your Personal Information
• Data retention
• Security of your personal Information
• Links to other sites

Categories of Personal Information we collect:

We may collect the following categories of Personal Information from or about you as explained in this Section.

Information collected from you: We collect many of the categories of Personal Information listed below when you affirmatively give them to us or transact business with us. You may always choose not to provide Personal Information to Syndicate Legal Services but note that you may be unable to access certain services or features if they require Personal Information that you have not provided.

We collect:

Identifiers and Contact Information: Information commonly used to identify you, such as your name, username, physical address, email address, phone numbers, and other similar identifiers.
Transaction, Subscription and Customer Service Information: Information about your Syndicate Legal Services subscription, purchases or receipt of meal ingredients or other products we offer, or your use of our Sites (collectively, our “Services”).

This information includes:

delivery preferences
information related to returns, refunds and cancellations, and
information about gift orders and referrals
information about your interactions with technical and/or customer support
General Preference Information: General information about your product and service preferences, including your interest in products or services offered by third parties, and your demographics, behavior, and predispositions.
Limited payment information: When you pay for a Syndicate Legal Services' product or service, your payment information is collected and processed by a payment processing company that is responsible for maintaining your financial account information. We never get your full credit card information. More info below.
Other Information You Choose to Provide: such as when you communicate with us using social media; participate in a survey, contest, promotion or interactive area of the Sites; or when you request technical or customer support.
Basic account information related to your Google, Facebook, Apple, or other third-party account if you choose to register and log in using such an account: This information includes your username and information from the third-party service about whether you entered your password correctly. (These services are designed so that Syndicate Legal Services doesn’t see your actual password for these services – just whether you got the password right or wrong.)

Information collected from your device and use of the Services:

We also collect information automatically when you interact with our Sites. This information includes:

Device Identifiers and Information: Information about your device, network, and internet connection, such as your IP address(es), MAC address, other device ID (UDID), referring/exit pages, device type, operating system type and version, browser type, and client version.
Usage Activity Information: Information about your usage of or other interaction with our Services. This information includes actions taken, date and time, frequency, duration, quantity, and performance information related to logins, clicks, messages, how you reached our Services, and other website and feature usage information.

When you visit our Sites from a mobile device, we collect information about the mobile device you use to access or use the Sites, including the hardware model, operating system and version, unique device identifiers, mobile network information and information about your use of our mobile applications. With your consent as required by applicable law, we may also collect information about the precise location of your device and access and collect information from certain native applications on your device (such as your device’s camera, photo album and phonebook applications) to facilitate your use of certain features of the Sites.

Syndicate Legal Services and our third-party service providers may collect this automatic information using methods such as cookies and tracking technologies (further described below).

Information collected from other sources:

We may receive Personal Information about you from other sources, such as business partners, marketers, researchers, analysts, social network services, and other parties to help us supplement our records. We may also receive Personal Information that third parties collect in other contexts, such as when you visit other websites that are unaffiliated with Syndicate Legal Services and information collected from you offline.

We may also collect information about you from other Syndicate Legal Services' users. For example, a Syndicate Legal Services' user can use our referral program to tell a friend about our Services, providing the friend’s name and email address in the process. A particularly generous Syndicate Legal Services' user might send a friend a gift or gift certificate, providing the friend’s name, email address, and mailing address. Syndicate Legal Services' users are responsible for obtaining any necessary consent from you before submitting your Personal Information to us.

Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising:

Syndicate Legal Services and the vendors we work with – including web analytics vendors, online advertising networks, and other companies that help us market Syndicate Legal Services' services – use various tracking technologies, including cookies and web beacons, to collect information about you when you interact with our Sites, including information about your browsing and purchasing behavior. Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive or in device memory that help us improve the Sites and your experience, see which areas and features of the Sites are popular, and count visits. Web beacons are electronic images that may be used on the Sites or in emails and help deliver cookies, count visits and understand usage and campaign effectiveness. Vendors we work with may combine the Personal Information they collect when you use our Sites with information that they collect from other sources.

You can adjust certain settings, such as by turning off cookies in your browser or adjusting privacy settings in our apps, to reduce the amount of Personal Information we passively collect from you when you use our Services. Because we use these features to enhance your user experience (such as using cookies to remember your user name when you visit our Sites or by using push notification in our Apps to let you know the status of your Blue Apron orders), disabling such features may impact our Sites’ functionality.

Syndicate Legal Services strives to provide you with relevant, value-added content in our online advertisements. We work with online analytics and advertising partners to: (1) better understand the use of our Services so that we can improve our Services; and (2) deliver Syndicate Legal Services' advertisements that are more tailored to you both on our Services and on third-party Services.

Our partners may also place cookies, pixel tags and similar technologies on many online services, including ours. They use these technologies to collect information about your activities on these services in order to deliver you more relevant advertising. For example, they may use the information they collect from their cookies on our Services to identify Syndicate Legal Servies' products and services you might be interested in and to recognize your device so they can show you relevant Syndicate Legal Services' advertisements while you are using our Services and other services. Additionally, we sometimes provide basic information we collect (such as email addresses) to service providers, who may “match” this information in hashed form to cookies, mobile ad identifiers, and other proprietary IDs, in order to provide you with more relevant ads when you visit other online services.

If you are interested in more information about tailored browser advertising and how you can generally control cookies from being put on your devices to deliver tailored advertising, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Opt-Out link to opt out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs. For additional ways to opt-out of targeted advertising activities under applicable law, see the “Rights and Choices” section below. Please note that these opt-outs apply per browser and per device, so you will have to opt out for each device—and each browser on each device—through which you access our Services.

Our disclosure of Personal Information:

We may share Personal Information about you in the following ways:

Advertising partners: These businesses offer services to Syndicate Legal Services, like serving advertisements on our behalf across the Internet and providing analytics services. For more information about opting out of this activity, go to the "Rights and Controls" section below.
Legal purposes: We disclose Personal Information to courts, law enforcement, and other appropriate third parties when the disclosure is required or authorized by law or reasonably necessary for the protection of our property or legal rights.
Business transactions: As our business grows, we may buy, merge, or partner with other companies. In such transactions (including in contemplation of such transactions), information may be among the transferred assets. If a portion or all of our assets are sold or transferred to a third-party, customer information (including your email address) would likely be one of the transferred business assets.
Other entities with your consent: If you have consented to our disclosure of your information or direct us to disclose your information, we will also do so consistent with your consent or direction.
Our Affiliates: We may share your personal information with our affiliates, including Wonder, for any of the above purposes, including marketing, analytics or operational purposes. (See Wonder’s privacy policy here.)

Rights and Controls over your Personal Information:

We do our best to give you reasonable controls over the Personal Information we collect from or about you as set forth below. If you reside in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah or Virginia, you may have legal rights with respect to your Personal Information. In order to protect the privacy of all Syndicate Legal Services' customers and potential customers from across the United States, we will make our best effort to honor requests made by residents of other states as well.

Here are the types of requests you can make:

information about the categories of Personal Information we process, our uses of your Personal Information, our sources of such information and our disclosure of such information
access to the Personal Information that Syndicate Legal Services has collected about you during the previous 12 months and a copy of certain Personal Information in a portable format
- Correct certain Personal Information we have about you
- Deletion of the Personal Information we have about you.

You may make a request by contacting us at the phone number below, or by clicking on "Contact Us" below. Before we disclose, correct or delete Personal Information in response to any of these requests, we will need to verify your identity. If you have an account with Syndicate Legal Services, we will verify your identity by having you log-in to your Syndicate Legal Services' account. If you do not have an account with us, please provide your email address. Depending on the nature of your request, we may contact you for further information if appropriate to verify your identity. Note, however, that Syndicate Legal Services will never ask you for sensitive personal or financial information when verifying your identity, and no Syndicate Legal Services employee will ask you to tell them your password. If you are an authorized agent for a California resident submitting a request on their behalf, we may require proof of the written authorization you have received before processing the request.

Under certain circumstances, we will not be able to fulfill your request, such as if it prevents us from completing a transaction you initiated, interferes with our legal obligations, affects legal matters including a Syndicate Legal Services' user’s rights to data contained in their account, we cannot verify your identity, or compliance with your request is not legally required and would involve disproportionate cost or effort. But in any event we will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe and provide you with an explanation. If we deny your request in whole or in part, the laws in your jurisdiction may provide you with rights to appeal our response. If applicable, we will provide you with information about your appeal options in our response to you.

Syndicate Legal Services will not discriminate against anyone that makes a rights request, but in some cases we will not be able to provide our Services to you without that information.

Opt out of sale of Personal Information and disclosure of Personal Information for online targeted advertising. As explained in the Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising section above, Syndicate Legal Services allows third parties to receive certain information such as cookies, IP address, device identifiers, hashed contact information, browsing behavior, and/or other activity to enable the delivery of targeted advertising to you. We may also share basic contact information and transactional history with vendors that provide us with enhanced data sets to improve our targeted advertising activities.

Syndicate Legal Services doesn’t allow marketing companies, advertisers, or anyone else to access to your Personal Information in exchange for payment. But some of Syndicate Legal Services' information sharing practices for targeted advertising to you discussed above may qualify as the “sale” of personal information or sharing or processing of Personal Information for targeted advertising, as defined in applicable law.

Communications preferences:

We may send you communications (including emails, phone calls, text messages, push notifications, and snail mail) such as order status updates, promotional material, and billing receipts. We need the ability to send you certain of these communications to offer the Services, such as information about updates to this Privacy Policy, so you may not be able to unsubscribe from certain types of communications. To exercise available options for these communications, you can change the Notification Settings in your account, disable push notifications as described below, or contact us.

We may also send additional communications about the Services, such as newsletters and additional options that may be of interest to you. We do our best to only send this type of communication to people who want to receive it. If you would like to discontinue receiving these communications, you can update your preferences by using the “Unsubscribe” link found in such emails or by contacting us using the information in the “Contact Us” section below.

Disabling push notifications:

Note that discontinuing push messages typically requires you to change your settings on your device. Each type of device operates differently, so please check your user manual if you’re having trouble.

Data retention:

How long we retain your Personal Information depends on the type of data and the purpose for which we process the data. We will retain your Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Security of your Personal Information:

Syndicate Legal Services is committed to protecting the Personal Information you share with us. We utilize a combination of industry-standard security technologies, procedures, and organizational measures to help protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

We recommend you take every precaution in protecting your Personal Information when you are on the Internet. For example, change your passwords often, use a combination of upper and lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols when creating passwords, and make sure you use a secure browser.

Links to Other Sites:
Please note that when you voluntarily use a Site feature provided by a third party that requires sharing of Personal Information in order to work properly, for example, if you “Like,” “Tweet,” “Pin,” or share content using the social sharing features or other integrated tools on our Sites, the relevant social media company may access Personal Information from you, and any information that you post may be made broadly available, depending on your privacy settings for your social media account. For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection and processing in connection with social sharing features, please visit the privacy policies of the social media services that you use and that provide these features. In other words, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, and similar services all have their own privacy policies that you should read. Blue Apron’s privacy policy doesn’t apply to them.
