Mind Insurance Privacy Policy

Effective: December 2016

Introduction

Our privacy policy will help you understand what information we collect at Mind Insurance, how Mind Insurance uses it, and what choices you have.
When we talk about “Mind Insurance,” “we,” “our,” or “us” in this policy, we are referring to Better Humans Pty Ltd trading as Mind Insurance ACN 612225966., the company which provides the Services. When we talk about the “Services” in this policy, we are referring to our online personal and professional development tools and platform. Our Services are currently available for use via a web browser or applications specific to your desktop or mobile device.
Terms that are defined in our Terms and Conditions of Use have the same meaning when used in this Policy.


Information we collect and receive


1. Subscriber Data
Content and information submitted by users to the Services is referred to in this policy as “Subscriber Data.”  Where Mind Insurance collects or processes Subscriber Data, it does so on behalf of the Subscriber.


2. Other information
Mind Insurance may also collect and receive the following information:

  • Account creation information. Subscribers provide information such as an email address and password to create an account.
  • Billing and other information. For Subscribers that purchase a paid version of the Services, Mind Insurance Extended Family and our third party payment processors may collect and store billing address and credit card information on our behalf or we may do this ourselves.
  • Services usage information. This is information about how you are accessing and using the Services, which may include administrative and support communications with us.
    Contact information.  Any contact information you choose to import is collected (such as an address book from a device) when using the Services.
  • Log data. When you use the Services our servers automatically record information, including information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website or your mobile app sends when you are using it. This log data may include your Internet Protocol address, the address of the web page you visited before using the Services, your browser type and settings, the date and time of your use of the Services, information about your browser configuration and plug-ins, language preferences, and cookie data.
  • Device information. We may collect information about the device you are using the Services on, including what type of device it is, what operating system you are using, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers, and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this information often depends on what type of device you are using and its settings.
  • Geo-location information. Precise GPS location from mobile devices is collected only with your permission. WiFi and IP addresses received from your browser or device may be used to determine approximate location.
  • Services integrations. If, when using the Services, you integrate with a third party service, we will connect that service to ours. The third party provider of the integration may share certain information about your account with Mind Insurance. However, we do not receive or store your passwords for any of these third party services.
  • Third party data. Mind Insurance may also receive information from the Mind Insurance Extended Family, our partners, or others that we use to make our own information better or more useful. This might be aggregate level information, such as which IP addresses go with which post codes, or it might be more specific information, such as about how well an online marketing or email campaign performed.


Our Cookie Policy
Mind Insurance uses cookies and similar technologies like single-pixel gifs and web beacons, to record log data. We use both session-based and persistent cookies.
Cookies are small text files sent by us to your computer and from your computer or mobile device to us each time you visit our website or use our desktop application. They are unique to your account or your browser. Session-based cookies last only while your browser is open and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies last until you or your browser delete them or until they expire.
Some cookies are associated with your account and personal information in order to remember that you are logged in. Other cookies are not tied to your account but are unique and allow us to carry out site analytics and customisation, among other similar things. If you access the Services through your browser, you can manage your cookie settings there but if you disable some or all cookies you may not be able to use the Services.
Mind Insurance sets and accesses our own cookies on the domains operated by Mind Insurance and its corporate affiliates. In addition, we use third parties like Google Analytics for website analytics. You may opt-out of third party cookies from Google Analytics on its website. We do not currently recognise or respond to browser-initiated Do Not Track signals as there is no consistent industry standard for compliance.
