Privacy Policy
Your privacy is very important to us. We (Applied Market Solutions LLC and its Officers and Employees) do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your consent. Please read this privacy policy to learn more about how we use and protect your personal information. We want you to understand our privacy practices fully.
The privacy practices of this policy apply to our services available under the domain and subdomains of this website (the "site"). For the processing of personal data, we, as data controllers, adhere to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the European Union. To that effect, the users of our Website and our software are the data subjects. When visiting our Website, for certain transactions we log the time of access and your IP address. This data is not shared with any third party and may be retained for the time your use of the site is active and after that for tax and record-keeping reasons. The retention period of data you enter is potentially unlimited unless you delete it, remove yourself as a user (see unsubscribe/remove link at bottom of each page), or when it is required by law. Data processing is done in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point of the GDPR. By visiting this Website, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this privacy policy. If you do not agree please do not use or access our site. Your data is NOT portable.
This privacy policy describes the information, as part of the normal operation of our services, we collect from you and what may happen to that information. Although this policy may seem long, we have prepared a detailed policy because we believe you should know as much as possible about our practices so that you can make informed decisions. By accepting the privacy policy and any other agreement presented to you on the site, you expressly consent to our use and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with this privacy policy. This privacy policy is effective upon acceptance in registration for new registering users and is otherwise effective on January 1, 2022, for all users after that date.
Information collection
Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. This allows us to provide services and features that most likely meet your needs and to customize our service to make your experience safer and easier. We only collect personal information about you that we consider necessary for achieving this purpose. For statistical purposes, anonymized data may be collected in aggregate form from which no information about individual users can be inferred.
In general, beyond the first page, you cannot browse the site without telling us who you are, i.e., by registering and thereby revealing certain personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information, you are not anonymous to us. If you choose to use our services, we require you to provide contact and identity information, billing information, and other personal information as indicated on the forms throughout the site. Where possible, we indicate which fields are required and which fields are optional. You always have the option to not provide information by choosing not to use a particular service or feature. We also require certain financial information, namely Credit Card information, which is processed through a third-party, Stripe.com, which maintains that information's security. We do NOT store credit card numbers or CVV/CVC codes on the database of this Website.
We automatically track certain information based upon your behavior on the site. For example, we use your IP Address for inter-program communicatitons and if/when stored it will be encrypted. It is not our initial intention, but we may, in the future, use this information to do internal research on our users' demographics, interests, and behavior to better understand, protect, and serve you and our community. This information may include the URL you just came from (whether this URL is on the site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on the site or not), your computer browser information, and your IP address. We encrypt and store your origin IP address and may use it to track users' traffic and origin, as well as for identifying you as a user. We will only use your information for our business purposes.
"Cookies" are small files placed on your hard drive to assist in providing services. We do not currently use or plan to use "cookies" on any pages of the site, but may, in the future, do so to help analyze our web page flow, measure promotional effectiveness, track promotion response, and promote trust and safety.
We are not allowing third-parties to advertise on this site intiially, but may do so, in the future, and may offer special vacation opportunities to past and current users of this Website. You have the ability to opt-out of any email promotions (see the bottom of most pages for that link).
Communications from the site
On rare occasions, it is necessary to send out a strictly service-related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, we might send users an email to inform them. Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications, though they can deactivate or delete their account. However, such communications would not be not promotional. Any promotional emails will provide a means to Opt-out.
We communicate with users primarily through the Website. From time to time, we may communicate to users regarding issues relating to their account via email or phone at the administrator's option. Because you will have an on-going relationship with this site, "unsubscribing" is not an option. However, you can deactivate your account at any time by contacting the Administrator at admin@timeshareexchange.us. The Administrator reserves the right, at their sole discretion, to block or permanently delete your account at any time, for any reason, including but not limited to non-payment or dispute of fees, regardless of cause or reason, attempting to avoid payment of the required fees, attempting to "game" the system, and use of disallowed language.
Sharing information
Though we make extraordinary efforts to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law, when we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order, or legal process served on our Website.
We do not plan to do so initially. Still, We may, in the future, share Website user's usage information with reputable advertisers to target internet banner advertisements on this site. The information they collect and share through this website is not personally identifiable, but on their website they may collect personally identifiable information and they are responsibile for its protection.
Other corporate entities: We share certain data, including credit card and personal information about you, with our technology providers. To the extent that these entities have access to your information, we expect them to treat it at least as protectively as they treat information they obtain from their other users. Our technology providers are expected to follow privacy practices no less protective of all users than our practices described in this document, to the extent allowed by applicable law.
In the event, we go through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of our assets, users’ personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.
Choice to opt-out
Our users may \‘opt-out\’ of having their personal information used for purposes not directly related to our site by clicking the unsubscribe/remove link (at the bottom of each page). Users who no longer wish to receive communications may remove their account or opt-out of receiving communications. You may be able to 'opt-out' by replying with unsubscribe in the subject line of the email response, clicking an unsubscribe link in the email, or click the unsubscribe/remove link at the bottom of most pages. You may request to be 'unsubscribed' by sending an email to the Administrator at admin@timedhareexchange.us with 'unsubscribe' in the subject line, but the only recourse available to the Administrator will be to remove your account, includng any active Listings.
Links
This Website contains no links to other sites other than to our technology providers, and those that refer to properties in your Listings, but emails issued through this site will contain links back into this site and may, in the future, contain advertisements with links to third-party sites. Please be aware that Applied Market Solutions LLC and its Officers and Employees, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy policy of every Website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy policy applies solely to information collected by and stored on this Website.
Security
This Website takes every precaution and then some to protect our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information via the Website, their information is protected online and off-line through encryption and firewalls. ALL USER PERSONALLY-IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION ON THIS SITE IS ENCRYPTED USING ONE OF FOUR DIFFERENT ENCRYPTION TECHNIQUES. We process credit cards using a service provided by Stripe.com, and their website states they are PCI compliant. Any third-party site to which we connect is responsible for their compliance with relevant laws.
When our registration form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as Phone Numbers or passwords), that information is encrypted with the industry's normal encryption software, including SSL. We do not store your credit card number, CVV/CCV code, and we don\’t ask for social security numbers or driver's license numbers.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also protect user-information off-line. All of our users’ personally-identifiable information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is encrypted and inaccessible to anyone other than the Administrator and technical specialists working under strict privacy-compliance and non-disclosure agreements. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific related job are granted access to personally identifiable information. However, customer service personnel, if any, will have NO access to personal information. Furthermore, all employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment with standard firewall protections. Server host employees do NOT have access to unencrypted personal information. Only the Administrator can see your encrypted information (but not your password, which remains hidden from even the Administrator).
Correcting/updating/deleting/deactivating personal information
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such as phone, email, etc.), or if a user no longer desires our service, we provide a way to correct, update or delete/deactivate users’ personally identifiable information. This can be done online. If unable to make the change online, contact us as listed below.
Notification of changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this page, connected to the homepage and other pages, and other places we deem appropriate, so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
If, however, we use users’ personally identifiable information differently from that stated at the time of collection, we will notify users by posting a notice on our site or via email.
Your rights
You have the right to access to, rectification of, erasure of, restriction of processing of, but not portability of your personal data pursuant to Articles 15, 16, 17, 18, 20 of the GDPR, respectively.
You have the right to withdraw consent to processing, pursuant to Art. 7 (3) GDPR.
You have the right to object to processing pursuant Art. 21 GDPR.
