ABOUT HER MONEY MEDIA, INC.

Her Money Media, Inc. (“HMM”, “we”, “us” and “our”) was founded in 2018 by Jean Chatzky with a particular emphasis on improving women’s financial literacy and wellness. HMM creates and distributes financial wellness content and coaching programs, including, but not limited to podcasts, newsletters, blogs, journals, coaching, group or personal meetings (the “Services”), via the websites https://hermoney.com (the “HerMoney Site”), https://investingfixx.com (the “InvestingFixx Site”), and https://financefixx.com (the “FinanceFixx Site”) (collectively, the “Sites”). Collectively, we refer to Sites and Services as “Services”. We work directly with individuals as well as partner with major corporations and financial institutions to help support their clients and employees, both women and men.

Regardless of the audience, the company’s mission is to inspire people’s skills and confidence in their personal financial management, positively impacting lives at every level.

Each person or entity who uses our Services is referred to as a “user” or “you” or “your”. This Privacy Statement and our Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to each user.

This document is our statement of our privacy practices (“Privacy Statement”). Among other things, it explains how we and some of the companies we work with collect, use, share and protect the information you provide to us (“your Content” or “User Content”). The User Content may include any personally identifiable information, including without limitation name, address, telephone numbers, electronic mail and postal addresses, and other sensitive information that identifies or is uniquely associated with an individual (collectively, “Personal Data”). This Privacy Statement also discusses your choices about the collection, storage and use of your Personal Data.

Any Content that is not Personal Data is referred to as “Non-Personal Data.” Non-Personal Data may include without limitation information about how users use the Services, what Services users select, how users respond to service offerings, how users share information with others, what users say they like and dislike, all of which we aggregate into larger data sets that do not identify individuals (collectively, “Behavioral Data” which is a type of Non-Personal Data).

Among other services, HMM may connect users with other users. Please note that this Privacy Statement does not apply to any other websites, mobile applications, or businesses. This Privacy Statement applies to any Personal Data and other Content we collect or process via any means, including via our Services; although the focus of this Privacy Statement is on Content we collect via our Services.

By using our Services, you consent to the collection, transfer, analysis, transformation, storage, disclosure and other uses of your Content, including your Personal Data, as described in this Privacy Statement.

For the purpose of any privacy laws which use the terms “controller” and “processor” with regard to Personal Data, HMM is the “Data Controller”, meaning that HMM is the legal person which alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of Personal Data. Our service providers and contractors who process Personal Data are each the “Data Processor”, meaning that they process Personal Data at our direction.

• Partners, Affiliates & Service Providers. We may share your Personal Data with our partners, affiliates and service providers, including to sell and provide the Services.
• Cookies. Cookies are unique identifiers that we transfer to your device to enable our systems to recognize your device and to provide features and remember your personalization choices. We use cookies to make it easier to access and use our Services. The help feature on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, by changing the add-on’s settings or visiting the website of its manufacturer. Because cookies allow you to take advantage of some of the Services’ essential features, we recommend that you leave them turned on. Cookies are also used to display particular Content and to set session identifiers for visitors who voluntarily join user areas.
• Do not Track. We honor general opt-out preference signals which we are made aware of; however, the specific “Do Not Track” setting has been found to enable the fingerprinting of user devices, and companies have generally moved away from this standard. Therefore, we do not honor the “Do Not Track” setting on users’ devices.
• Opt-out Email or Postal Address. If you supply us with your postal or email address you may receive periodic mailings from us with information on new products and services or upcoming events. If you do not want to receive such mailings, please let us know by sending an email to us at the “opt-out” address in Section 8 below. We will remove your name from the list we use internally. Opting-out of these emails does not mean we remove your email from our system entirely, because we still retain your email addresses for other purposes.
• Required by Law. We may access, preserve and share your Personal Data in response to a legal request (like a search warrant, court order or subpoena). We may also access, preserve and share Personal Data when we have a good faith belief that it is necessary to: help to ensure security and integrity generally to the extent that your Personal Data is reasonably necessary and proportionate for those purposes; detect, prevent and address fraud and other illegal activity; to protect ourselves, you and others, including as part of investigations; and to prevent death or imminent bodily harm.

You will continue to own your User Content, but the license you grant to us in the Terms may be transferred to others at HMM’s sole discretion.
• Non-Personal Data. We may share Non-Personal Data publicly and with publishers, researchers or connected sites. For example, we may share aggregated Non-Personal Data publicly to show trends about the general use of our Services. Non-Personal Data includes aggregated or collective information about multiple users that does not reflect or reference an individually-identifiable user.
• Other. In addition to some of the specific uses of information we describe in this Privacy Statement above, we may use Personal Data that we receive to:
• help you efficiently access your information after you sign in.

6. Different Locations, Different Laws

The laws and regulations that address privacy rights and responsibilities (collectively, “Laws”) are different from one to another. Indeed, some of the Laws do or do not apply depending on different factors, including:

• Location or residence of the person or organization that employs or contracts with the Data Subject.
• Location of each server or other machine where the Personal Data is received, stored, processed or forwarded to.
• Location of the relevant office of HMM or any company that processes Personal Data.

Several of the Laws that concern users and HMM are discussed in this Section, but these are not all of the Laws that may apply. In addition, if there is any conflict or ambiguity between the statements made in this Privacy Statement and an applicable Law, then the Law will control.
