Privacy Policy

HatchEcom takes your privacy seriously and is sensitive to potential concerns about how we use the personal information we collect from and about you.  In addition to this Privacy Policy, we have internal policies and practices designed to keep your personal information secure and to ensure that information about you is only used consistent with this Privacy Policy.  We actively apply principles of privacy by design and have a privacy team that is committed to helping to ensure that your personal information is safe and is handled properly.

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, process, and disclose personal information of consumers. This Privacy Policy applies to HatchEcom.com, Inc. as well as HatchEcom’s subsidiaries and affiliates.

The scope of this Privacy Policy covers both your use of the HatchEcom.com website and any other ways in which you may interact with HatchEcom, such as when you speak to us on the phone or over video conferencing applications.  It also describes the choices available to you regarding our use of your personal information.  Information for California residents and individuals located in the European Union are also included within this policy. 

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into our Terms of Use and Terms of Service, and therefore governs your use of HatchEcom’s services. By using HatchEcom’s services, you accept the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you have questions or concerns about the Privacy Policy, or would like to exercise any of your rights around how data about you is used, you can let us know by sending an email to support@hatchecom.com. If you are a consumer with a disability and are having trouble accessing this Privacy Policy, you may request to receive this Privacy Policy by emailing support@HatchEcom.com.

 

Information We Collect About Consumers.

In this section of the Privacy Policy, we explain what types of Personal Information we may collect about consumers.  The Personal Information collected depends on the type of interaction we have with a consumer (such as calling, visiting our website, or using one of our mobile apps), the types of products a consumer considers or purchases, and what information HatchEcom’s customers choose to share with us.  This section includes all of the information that we may collect about consumers, but we will rarely collect all of these types of information about any single person. 

As used in this Privacy Policy, Personal Information means information that relates, and is capable of being linked, to a particular person.  It does not include de-identified or aggregate information. 

HatchEcom potentially collects the following categories of information about consumers, some of which may be collected or maintained in a manner such that it can be considered Personal Information:

Identifiers: Examples of the types of identifiers that HatchEcom may collect include real names, nicknames, postal addresses, online identifiers, Internet Protocol addresses (“IP addresses”), email addresses, account numbers, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, passport numbers, and other government identification numbers.

Other types of information:  Examples of other types of information include physical characteristics or descriptions of you, telephone number, insurance policy number, education, employment, financial information including bank account, credit card, and debit card numbers, and health insurance information.  It also includes additional information provided to HatchEcom directly by you, such as when you complete a questionnaire, answer a survey, or receive a financial consultation. This category includes information identified as Personal Information in California Civil Code Section 1798.80(e) that is not otherwise categorized.

Characteristics protected under some laws: Examples of the types of characteristics that HatchEcom may collect include age, national origin, citizenship, marital status, medical information, sex, sexual orientation, and veteran or military status.

Commercial information: Examples of the types of commercial information that HatchEcom may collect includes records of business and other property owned, products or services purchased, obtained, or considered from HatchEcom or our partners, and other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies.

Internet information: Examples of the types of internet or other electronic network activity information that HatchEcom may collect includes browsing history, search history, information about the device the consumer is using to access our website or applications, and information regarding a consumer’s interaction with HatchEcom’s or our partners’ websites, applications, or advertisements.  We may also collect information from visitors to our website such as browser settings, operating systems, referring/exit pages, and clickstream data.  When we send you an email, HatchEcom may also collect information, including about how you interact with that email.

Geolocation information: HatchEcom may collect information about where a consumer resides or is otherwise located.

Audio and visual information: HatchEcom may make audio recordings of calls with consumers.  We may make visual recordings of consumers when they visit our premises or when consumers agree that HatchEcom may take their photograph or videotape them.  We may also collect visual images of consumers when they are provided to us in connection with a product, such as when they are submitted as part of a trademark order. We do not collect thermal or olfactory information.  

Professional and employment-related information: Examples of the types of professional and employment-related information HatchEcom may collect includes information about professional status and affiliations, employment history, and employment status.

We do not collect biometric or education information that is maintained by an educational institution or party acting on an educational institution’s behalf.  We also do not collect inferences about consumers, although as described below, we may internally create inferences based on the information that we do collect.

Where We Collect Information About Consumers.

In this section of the Privacy Policy, we explain where and how we collect data about consumers.  We receive information about consumers from several categories of sources.  To learn more about which categories of information we collect from which source, please refer to the chart in the section below entitled Summary of HatchEcom’s Practices Regarding Consumer Information.

Consumers:  The vast majority of the information that HatchEcom collects comes directly or indirectly from the consumer that it relates to.  Information that is collected directly from you is information that you provide when you complete a form online, use a chat feature, or speak to us on the phone.  We may also collect information indirectly about you when you interact with our website, through the use of cookies and other tracking technologies.  Indirect collection is described in more detail in the section below called “How HatchEcom Uses Cookies and Similar Technologies.”

Related Consumers: We may collect information about you from someone you know.  For instance, if you are a shareholder in a business that is formed through HatchEcom, we may be given information about you in order to complete the formation.

Employers: We may collect information about you from your employer if your employer has elected to provide you with employment benefits through HatchEcom.  For instance, your employer will tell HatchEcom when you are first eligible to receive services from HatchEcom as part of your benefits.

Service Providers: We may collect information about you from our Service Providers.  As used in this Privacy Policy, Service Providers means entities that HatchEcom has contracted with to provide us with services to help fulfill our business needs.  An example of the type of information that we may receive from a Service Provider is information about whether any Legal Mail has been received as part of our Registered Agent services.  Service Providers may also assist us in collecting information both directly and indirectly from you.

Professionals (including Legal Plan Attorneys and other Professionals): We may collect information about you from the independent professionals with whom you may schedule a consult with through our Legal Plan or other product offerings.  An example of the type of information that we may receive from these professionals includes the fact that a consult has occurred.  While we cannot control what information legal plan attorneys share with us, HatchEcom does not intend to collect any information from attorneys where the collection would result in a waiver of the attorney-client privilege.

Business Partners and Affiliates:  We may collect information about you from our business partners and affiliates.  An example of the type of information that we may receive from business partners and affiliates is information about the product you purchased from them after you indicated an interest in an offer that HatchEcom presented to you. 

Publicly/Commercially Available Information:  We may collect information related to you from publicly available sources of information, including government records and commercially available sources of consumer information.  Examples of the type of information we may collect from publicly available sources are whether your entity is in good standing with a Secretary of State or whether you have recently expressed interest in purchasing a product that HatchEcom sells.

Unrelated Parties:  We may receive information related to you from people and entities with whom HatchEcom does not have a direct relationship.  An example of the type of information that we may receive from unrelated third parties is documents that we receive on your behalf in our role as your Registered Agent.

How We Use the Information We Collect About Consumers.

In this section of the Privacy Policy, we explain our commercial and business purposes for collecting information about consumers.  HatchEcom uses the information that it has collected about consumers, for the purposes listed below.  In some instances, we may combine information that we have collected from multiple sources in order to fulfill these purposes.  HatchEcom potentially uses each category of information that we collect for each of these purposes.

If, in the future, HatchEcom wishes to use information about you in a manner that is not consistent with the purposes outlined below, we will seek your consent prior to the expanded use if and where we are legally required to do so.     

Providing Products and Services:  HatchEcom collects information for the purpose of providing products and services.  We may also use information to respond to inquiries from potential customers who are interested in learning more about our products and services.  Examples of the types of uses of consumer information for these purposes include producing and delivering documents purchased by consumers, administering the HatchEcom website, and displaying content based on consumer preferences.

Security:  HatchEcom collects information for the purpose of ensuring that we maintain appropriate security over computer networks and our physical facilities.  We may also collect information for the purposes of detecting fraud or other suspicious activities.

Meeting Legal Requirements:  HatchEcom collects information in order to meet our legal obligations.  These obligations may include satisfying screening requirements prior to assisting with entity formations, maintaining records as required in our role as Registered Agent, or responding to subpoenas for information.

Marketing:  HatchEcom collects information for use in marketing to current and prospective customers.  More information about how you can control the marketing you receive from HatchEcom is located in the sections “How HatchEcom Uses Cookies and Similar Technologies” and “How You Can Control The Information HatchEcom May Have About You.”

Product Development: HatchEcom collects information for use in improving our existing products and developing new products.

Analytics:  HatchEcom collects information for use in performing various types of analytics.  For example, HatchEcom uses information to analyze how visitors interact with our website, where visitors to our website arrive from and exit to, and gaining insights into the types of consumers that may be interested in our products and services.  We may also use information to develop inferences from the information we collect regarding consumer preferences, characteristics, predispositions, behaviors, and attitudes.

Operational Purposes:  HatchEcom collects information for use for our operational purposes, and the operational purposes of our service providers and business partners.  For instance, HatchEcom may use information for maintaining our website and other infrastructure, training and quality assurance, for conducting surveys or sweepstakes, to promote our brand, and to use in connection with our relationships with service providers and business partners.

Sharing with Business Partners:  HatchEcom collects information in order to provide business partners’ information in connection with consumers who have either expressed interest in hearing from the business partner or who have purchased a bundled product through HatchEcom.

Financial Reporting:  HatchEcom collects information for use in various types of financial reporting and other similar internal uses.  Examples of the types of financial reporting that HatchEcom may use consumer information in connection with are internal budgets and projections, calculation of compensation, and reporting to investors.

Business Transfers: If HatchEcom undertakes or is involved in any merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or insolvency event, then we may sell, transfer or share some or all of our assets, including information related to consumers in connection with the transaction or in contemplation of the transaction (such as conducting due diligence).  If such an event occurs, your information may be treated like any other HatchEcom asset and sold, transferred, or shared with third parties, or used in ways not contemplated or permitted under this Privacy Policy. In this case, you will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our site of any change in ownership or uses of your Personal Information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your Personal Information. 

In addition to the purposes listed above, HatchEcom may also use de-identified or aggregate data that is not capable of being linked to any individual consumer for additional purposes not listed above.

How We Share Consumer Information and Who We Share It With.

In this section of the Privacy Policy, we explain who we share consumer information with and under which circumstances we may do so.  To learn more about which categories of information are shared with which third parties, please refer to the chart in the section below entitled Summary of HatchEcom’s Practices Regarding Consumer Information.

Service Providers: HatchEcom may share information about consumers with Service Providers who assist us with completing the business purposes outlined in the “How We Use the Information We Collect About Consumers” section.  These companies are not authorized to use the information we share with them for any other purpose other than providing services to HatchEcom or to you.

Professionals (including Attorneys and other Professionals): HatchEcom may share consumer information with the independent professionals that can be accessed through products such as our legal plans and attorney-assisted products. 

Business Partners and Affiliates: HatchEcom may share information with business partners and affiliates in limited circumstances.  These include:

• If you express interest in an offer made by a business partner, we may provide information about you in connection with the offer you have selected.  If you later decide to opt-out from allowing HatchEcom to share your information with business partners for their marketing purposes, you may do so by contacting Customer Care at support@HatchEcom.com.  To the extent that HatchEcom has already shared your information prior to your decision to opt-out, you may opt out from future marketing by contacting our business partners directly.
• When you purchase a product from us that is bundled with a product offered by one of our business partners, we will share information about you with those business partners so that they can provide you with the product or services included with your purchase.  These companies are not authorized to use the information we share with them about you for their own marketing purposes without first asking for your permission.

Related Consumers: In limited circumstances, we may provide information about you to someone you know.  For instance, we may provide information connected to your account with HatchEcom to your authorized contacts. 

Public Postings: HatchEcom may publicly share information about consumers, such as by displaying the information on our website or having the information published in publicly available media, in a limited number of circumstances. 

• We may display personal testimonials of satisfied customers received through email surveys on our website or other marketing.  If you wish to update or delete your testimonial, you can contact us at support@HatchEcom.com.  
• When consumers leave us reviews either on the HatchEcom website, or on other publicly available websites, we may display these customer reviews on the HatchEcom website.  If you provide a review that we display and wish to update or delete it, you can also contact us at support@HatchEcom.com.  We will delete your review at your request or if, at our discretion, we choose not to update your review as requested.
• When we collect publicly available information, we may share that information on our website. 

Required by Law: HatchEcom may disclose consumer information as required by law, such as in response to a subpoena, a lawful request by a public authority, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, or similar legal process, and when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a legal request.

Related Parties: HatchEcom may disclose consumer information with businesses controlling, controlled by, or under common control with HatchEcom. If HatchEcom is merged, acquired, or sold, or if some or all of our assets or equity are transferred, we may disclose or transfer consumer data in connection with the associated transactions.

In addition to the circumstances listed above, HatchEcom may also share de-identified or aggregate data that is not capable of being linked to any individual consumer with additional entities not listed above.

Information Processed On Behalf of Third Parties

In some instances, HatchEcom may process Personal Information on behalf of third party affiliates.  HatchEcom acknowledges that in these instances, you have the right to access your Personal Information.  Where HatchEcom has no direct relationship with the individuals whose Personal Information it processes, individuals seeking access, or seeking to correct, amend, or delete inaccurate data, should direct their inquiry to the third party affiliate (the data controller).

Our Commitment to Data Security. We strive to make certain that our servers and connections incorporate the latest encryption and security devices. We have implemented physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect. Credit card and Personal Information are transmitted by secure servers (TLS). Documents are delivered to you electronically, including through online storage platforms or email. Unfortunately, no data transmission is guaranteed to be 100% secure and we therefore cannot guarantee the security of information you transmit to or from our website or through the use of our services, and you provide this information at your own risk. ACCORDINGLY, WE DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR THE THEFT, LOSS, OR INTERCEPTION OF, OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS OR DAMAGE TO, YOUR DATA OR COMMUNICATIONS BY USING OUR WEBSITE AND OUR SERVICES. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND AND ASSUME THESE RISKS.

IF YOU BELIEVE YOUR PRIVACY HAS BEEN BREACHED PLEASE CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY AT SUPPORT@HATCHECOM.COM.

Enforcement. We periodically review this Privacy Policy and our compliance with it to verify that both are accurate. We encourage you to contact us with any concerns, and we will investigate and attempt to resolve any complaints and disputes about our privacy practices.

Information for California Residents.

If you are a resident of California, this section provides information regarding your rights, and HatchEcom’s responsibilities, regarding your Personal Information. 

California Resident Rights

California law allows California residents, upon a verifiable consumer request, to request that a business that collects consumers’ Personal Information give consumers access to certain information.  This includes the specific pieces and categories of Personal Information that the business has collected about the consumer, the categories of sources for that information, the business or commercial purposes for collecting the information, and the categories of third parties with which the information was shared.

California residents also have the right to submit a request for deletion of information under certain circumstances.  This is not an absolute right and, in some circumstances, HatchEcom may decline to delete the information, such as when HatchEcom has an on-going business relationship with you, when we have a continued need to use the information for purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, or when we are legally required to retain the information.   

Consistent with California law, if you choose to exercise your rights, we will not charge you different prices or provide different quality of services unless those differences are related to your information.

How to Submit a Request for Access to Information or Deletion of Information

If you would like to submit a request about your data, we encourage you to do so by emailing us at support@HatchEcom.com. 

After you submit the request you will be asked to verify your email address and may also be asked to provide additional information in order to verify your identity, including potentially providing a declaration under penalty of perjury.  HatchEcom will attempt to verify your identity by asking for information that correlates with the information that we have previously collected about you.    Where this is not possible, HatchEcom may request you submit additional information for verification, such as proof of residency or redacted government-issued identification.  Please note that consistent with California law, we will be unable to satisfy your request until we have verified your identity.

You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. In order to designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, you must provide HatchEcom with written permission for the agent to make the request on your behalf or provide us with an executed power of attorney.  You will also be required to submit your valid government issued-identification, and the authorized agent’s valid government-issued identification.

Selling of Personal Information

HatchEcom does not sell Personal Information to third parties and will not sell Personal Information. If, in the future, HatchEcom does decide to sell Personal Information, any Personal Information collected prior to updating this Privacy Policy will be treated as if a valid request to opt-out from third party sales had been submitted by the consumer that the information relates to.
