Personal Information
Personal information is information that you provide directly to us which identifies, or which could reasonably be used to identify or contact you personally. Personal Information does not include information that has been aggregated or made anonymous such that it can no longer be reasonably associated with a specific person or directly identify you. The type of personal information we collect, and how we use it, varies depending upon the purpose for which you provide it. Generally, you can visit our Site without revealing any personally identifiable information about yourself. However, we collect personal information when you register to receive information, create an account, or engage us to provide services. The types of personal information we collect may include your name, company or affiliation, physical address, email address, telephone number, and user name and password. If you engage us to provide services, we may ask you to provide personal information about your credit card or other account information (e.g., credit card number, expiration date, CCV, and billing address) and share this information with Epik’s billing and payment processors. If you provide us feedback or contact us via e-mail, we will collect your name and e-mail address, as well as any other content included in the e-mail. If you apply for a job at Epik, we may require that you submit personal information such as a resume or curriculum vitae.

Cookies are small text files downloaded to your browser when you visit a website. We use cookies to understand and save your preferences for future visits. We do not utilize cookies to collect personal information. We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience when you use our Site. Your web browser may allow you to delete, block or otherwise disable the use of cookies.

Epik may share your personal information with third party vendors to help us provide, improve and protect our products and services.

These service providers are authorized to use your personal information only to perform tasks on our behalf in compliance with this Privacy Policy.
Epik may share your personal information with our parent companies, subsidiaries and/or affiliates. Epik will be responsible for the overall management and use of your personal information by these related entities.
From time to time, Epik may partner with other companies to jointly offer products or services. If you purchase or specifically express interest in a jointly-offered product or service from Epik, we may share your personal information with our joint promotion partners, once we have notified you of the personal information to be shared and obtained your consent to the sharing of the personal information. Epik does not control our business partners’ use of your personal information, and their use of such information will be in accordance with their own privacy policies.
Epik may use third-party service providers to manage credit card processing. These service providers are not permitted to store, retain, or use your personal information except for the sole purpose of providing credit card processing services on Epik’s behalf. Any personal information that is collected and processed by our third-party payment processor is subject to their privacy policy and practices.
Epik reserves the right to use or disclose your personal information if required by law or if we reasonably believe that such use or disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process.
If Epik is involved in a merger, acquisition, dissolution or sale of all or a portion of its assets, we may share or transfer your personal information. In that event, 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.
We may disclose your personal information for any purpose with your consent.
This Privacy Policy in no way restricts or limits our collection and use of aggregated or anonymized information that does not directly identify you with third parties.

The security of your information is important to us. Epik uses a variety of industry-standard security technologies and procedures to protect your information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access or disclosure. However, no security measures are perfect, and we cannot assure you that personal information that we collect will never be accessed or used in an unauthorized way. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please contact us immediately.
We will keep your information for as long as required to perform the purposes for which the data was collected or so long as we have a business purpose to do so and, thereafter, for no longer than is required or permitted by law. We will delete personal information within a reasonable time after the data is no longer necessary for the business purpose for which it was collected. We will, however, retain and use personal information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
