Privacy Policy – The Coding Network, LLC

The Coding Network, L.L.C. (“TCN,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) respects the privacy of your personal information.  We are committed to complying with this Privacy Policy, which describes what information we collect about you and others, including how we collect it, how we use it, with whom we may share it and what choices you have regarding our use of your personal information.

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected on our website located at https://codingnetwork.com/ and information that we collect when we market or deliver our services.

The term “personal information,” as used in this Privacy Policy, means information that relates to or is reasonably capable of being associated with an individual.

What are our sources of personal information and what information do we collect?

We generally collect personal information from the following sources: when you interact with us on the website, when you retain our services, when you provide information at a trade show, and when you apply to be a TCN employee or to provide services to TCN.  On our website, we collect information from you when you register on our site, request services, subscribe to our newsletter, respond to a survey, or fill out a form.

From the sources described above, we collect identifiers (name or email), contact information (phone, telephone number, personal or business address), demographic information, professional information (company name, job title, or employment history), educational and performance information (such as degrees collected or coding aptitude), government identifiers (tax ID or social security number), online account information, financial information (bank account and related billing information), and transaction history.

We will generally indicate which data we request is required, rather than data that is voluntary or optional. When requesting services or registering on our site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your: name, e-mail address, mailing address or phone number, and any other information that you may include on your resume.

Like most websites, we use cookies to enhance your experience, so our third party providers may gather general visitor information, and track visits to our website. Please refer to the “do we use cookies?” section below for information about cookies and how we use them.

Do we use cookies?

Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser that enables the sites or service providers systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.

If you choose not to accept certain cookies, you may not have access to certain features of our website.  Your browser may be configured to reject cookies or notify you when a cookie is set.

We may use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google, in order to better understand your use of our website and how we can improve it.  Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit a website, what pages you visit when you do so, and what other websites you used prior to coming to such website.  Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit a website, rather than your name or other directly identifying information.  We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with your personal information.  Although Google Analytics plants a persistent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit a website, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google.  Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the website is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy.  Google utilizes the data collected to track and examine the use of the website, to prepare reports on its activities and share them with other Google services.  To more fully understand how Google may use the data it collects on the website, please review “How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services” (located here).

As we grow and develop our business, our corporate structure or organization might change, we may merge or otherwise combine with, or we or portions of our business might be acquired by, another company.  In any such transactions, personal information generally is, and should be expected to be, one of the transferred business assets.  Also, if any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is brought by or against us, your information may be considered a company asset that may be sold or transferred to third parties.

Do we disclose any information to outside parties?

We do not, and do not intend to, sell your personal information to third parties.

We do transfer information to trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, providing services to you, and evaluating employment applications, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. The types of third parties to whom we disclose information therefore include, website and other online operators, human resources support vendors, subcontractors, and/or cloud storage providers.

We may also disclose your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, protect ours or others’ rights, property, or safety, or respond to subpoena or court order. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

For California Residents Only

This portion of our Privacy Policy advises California residents of rights provided in the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”) and how to exercise those rights. The CCPA currently exempts personal information reflecting a written or verbal business-to-business communication (“B2B personal information“) from certain of its requirements. As such, the rights described below may not apply to B2B personal information.

If you are a California resident, you may request certain information from or certain action by us, or you may authorize an agent to make such a request on your behalf.  We will seek to verify your identity and your agent’s authority when we receive an individual rights request from you or on your behalf to ensure the security of your personal information.

Please direct any rights requests (as further described below) or additional questions that you may have regarding this Privacy Policy to:  CCPA@codingnetwork.com or 324 South Palm Drive, Beverly Hills, California 90212, USA.

California residents have the right to request the deletion of personal information, but we may not delete some or all personal information, as required or permitted by applicable law, such as if the requested information in necessary to:

• Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
• Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
• Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
• Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
• Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.).
• Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
• Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.

If you are a California resident, you may also request to receive details about how we collect, use, and share your personal information.  You may also request to receive the specific pieces of personal information that we have collected about you.

We do not, and do not intend to, sell personal information of California residents and do not discriminate against you for exercising any CCPA rights, such as the access and deletion rights described above.

When offering services to our customers, we act as a “service provider” under the CCPA and our receipt and collection of any consumer personal information is completed on behalf of our customers in order for us to provide our services. This privacy policy does not apply to the information that we collect pursuant to our role as a service provider.
