4. Heights’ Purpose

Heights is an online course creation software platform for creating and managing an online education program. We provide tools that help you to create and organize educational content to teach Students and analyze their progress.

5. Eligibility

In order to use our Service, you must meet a number of conditions, including but not limited to:

• You must not be in violation of any embargoes, export controls, or other laws of the United States or other countries having jurisdiction over this Agreement, Heights, and yourself. For example, if the Office of Foreign Assets Control prohibits conducting financial transactions with nationals, residents, or banks of your country, you must not use our Service.
• You must be at least 13 years of age in accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act. If you live in a jurisdiction other than the United States and your jurisdiction has a higher minimum age to use our Site or Service without parental consent, then you must be at least that age.
• You must sign up for only one account (this includes, but is not limited to, a prohibition on repeatedly signing up for different accounts to take advantage of more than one free trial offer). An exception can be made at our discretion if you send us an email explaining your business need for a secondary account.
• You must provide us with personal information, payment information, and other information that we deem necessary to provide you with our Service.
• You must be authorized by the holder of any payment method to use their account for the purposes of signing up for our Service.

6. Disclaimer

Heights provides its Service on an as-is basis and, notwithstanding any other statements or examples given on our Site or elsewhere, makes no representations as to how Heights can be best used by any specific User or Student. You agree that you bear the sole responsibility of determining whether the Heights App is suitable for your use, and that Heights shall not be liable for any losses which result from the use of our Service.

7. Rules of Use

Once you have met our eligibility criteria described above and paid the appropriate fee to Heights as a User, or signed up under a User's Program as a Student, you will be provided with access to our Service. Although you have met the preliminary requirements to use our Service, there are certain additional rules which apply before, during, and subsequent to your registration with Heights. You must not:

• Violate the laws of the United States, its states, or any foreign political entity having jurisdiction over this Agreement, whether or not the foreign political entity is a country or a subdivision (such as a state or province) or municipality (such as a city, town, county, or region) of a foreign country.
• Use Heights for teaching Students about topics that are illegal, unethical, or dangerous.
• Be fraudulent or negligent when making payments to us (such as by using someone’s credit card without authorization, or using a card which you know will have the payment reversed for any reason).
• Infringe on anyone’s intellectual property rights, defame anyone, impersonate anyone, or otherwise violate the rights of a third party.
• Hack, crack, phish, SQL inject, or otherwise compromise, or attempt to compromise the security or integrity of the Heights Site, Service, App, or its Users’ computers.
• Scrape data or scan the Site, Service, or App.
• Abuse the Service you are provided by using it in such a way that is not intended by Heights or in a way that could impact Heights or its Users in a negative way.
• Do anything else which, at the discretion of Heights, could harm the safety or legal interests of Heights or any third party, including but not limited to other Users or Students.

Fair Use Policy for Unlimited Uploading and Bandwidth: Generally, we do not limit or impose additional charges for video or data storage (ex: the data stored in your Program for courses, products, text, files, video, audio, and other multimedia content you create), or bandwidth consumption (ex: the data used in order to deliver your files, site pages, and videos to Students). This policy is subject to fair use: If your aggregate storage usage or bandwidth usage (across every account you control) is higher than 99% of Users on our App in any calendar month, we may, in our discretion, charge fees for excessive usage, require you to upgrade to a different plan, or terminate your account(s) upon advance written notice.

Public Community Areas

Users who create a Program may enable certain community discussion areas or channels as publicly visible. By posting any text, images, video, or other content (“User Content”) in these publicly accessible areas, you acknowledge:

• Visibility & Indexing: Your User Content may be viewed without an account and may be indexed by search engines or archived by third parties. Heights cannot control and is not responsible for how third parties may use or further disseminate publicly visible User Content.
• Future Changes in Visibility: A User may switch a channel’s visibility from private to public (or vice versa) at any time. If you post information when a channel is private, and the User later makes it public, that content may become visible to non-logged-in visitors.
• No Expectation of Privacy: You should not share private or sensitive information in any area that may become public. Once publicly visible, Heights makes no guarantee of complete removal from external caches, archives, or search results even if you or the channel owner delete the original post.
• Moderation: Each User (i.e., the owner of the Program) primarily manages moderation of their own community discussions. Heights reserves the right, but not the obligation, to remove or disable access to content that violates this Agreement or applicable law. However, Heights is not liable for how a User chooses to moderate or not moderate their Program’s community posts.
• User Responsibility: You are solely responsible for the content you post. You agree that you have all necessary permissions to share any personal or third-party data, and you will not hold Heights liable for any issues arising from the posting or use of such content.

8. Payment, Billing, and Refunds

All payments are processed by our third party payment processor, Stripe, and payment may be made to them by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, JCB, Discover, and Diners Club cards. All prices on our Site, unless otherwise stated, are listed in United States dollars.

We may decide to apply varying payment plans from time to time. For example, we may require that you pay one lump sum for the purchase of our App, or we may rebill you on a recurring subscription basis. In either case, payment terms and, if applicable, rebilling periods shall be posted on our Site and are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by reference. If two or more listed payment terms conflict with each other, the one most beneficial to Heights shall take precedence.

You may cancel your subscription at any time. Refunds will be provided in full within the first thirty days of your subscription if for any reason you are not satisfied with our Service and notify us of your request for a refund within that time. After thirty days beyond your initial purchase, we will not be obliged to provide any refund, even on a pro rata basis. You may cancel your Service at any time after the initial thirty days and you will continue to have access to our Service until the end of the most recently paid subscription period, if applicable.

Should payment plans change or increase after an initial subscription, current Users will either have the option of staying on their current plan or may be grandfathered into the new subscription plan at their current subscription plan’s rate for a period of one year.

Active Student limits on subscription plans for accounts created on or after January 1st, 2023:

An "Active Student" is a Student in a User's Program who is currently able to login, access at least one product, and is not marked by you as "deactivated". Heights does not set a hard limit on the number of active students that are allowed on our paid subscription plans. The following overages are allowed:

• Overage of up to 10% above the plan limit for a single month on plans offering 5000 active students or more.
• Overage of up to 50 students above the limit for a single month on plans with limits of 100 active students.

An overage of 5% or more above the plan limit for 2 consecutive months will be required to upgrade.

Active Student limits on subscription plans for accounts on legacy plans created before January 1st, 2023:

An "Active Student" is a Student in a User's Program who has logged into the Program in the past 30 days. Heights does not set a hard limit on the number of active students that are allowed on our paid subscription plans. The following overages are allowed:

• Overage of up to 15% above the plan limit for a single month on plans offering 1000 active students or more.
• Overage of up to 50 students above the limit for a single month on plans with limits of less than 1000 active students.

An overage of 5% or more above the plan limit for 2 consecutive months will be required to upgrade.

9. Discounts

Heights may, but is not obligated to, provide discounts, including but not limited to an initial thirty day free trial offer for the use of our Service. The discounts provided will be made according to the information published on our Site, and if any information is conflicting, the terms most beneficial to Heights shall take effect. Discounts may not be applied to past payments.

Heights may refuse to provide such discounts for any reason including, but not limited to, fraud, unauthorized accounts (such as multiple accounts being used to take advantage of a one-time offer repeatedly), mistake on the part of our publication of information, actual or expected financial hardship, sale of all or part of our business, or any other reason.

10. Chargebacks, Credit Card Cancellations, and PayPal Disputes

Where a User provides payment to Heights, and that amount of money is subsequently taken from Heights due to a chargeback or similar reversal, Heights shall be entitled to recover that amount from the User as liquidated damages, as well as our reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and disbursements, and/or collection agency fees required to collect these liquidated damages.

Please note that this restriction on chargebacks is designed to prevent fraud and keep our costs low, which allows us to offer lower prices for our Service. Users may of course bring disputes against us in accordance with the “Forum of Dispute” provisions found further below.

As a User of our App, if a Student requests a refund from you, it is your responsibility to handle this with your Student. Heights does not collect payments from your Students. Heights is not a Merchant of Record platform. Any disputes of Student payments are between the Student, User, and the third-party payment processor the User chooses to use. As a User with Students, it is your responsibility to have your own terms, privacy policy, and refund policy in place and follow all applicable laws. Further, while Heights provides email support to its Users, Heights does not offer email support to the Students of its Users.

11. Third Party Charges

Because Heights may be used with a mobile device, certain third party SMS charges, data charges, and other fees may be applied in relation to your use of our Service. You agree that you are responsible for tracking and paying these charges, and that Heights shall not be liable to you for such charges.

12. Limited License

Heights is provided as licensed software to you. When you provide the proper payment to us or otherwise meet the requirements to use our App (such as by being eligible for a trial offer), you are authorized to use one account for our software at the price given. You may not distribute this software, copy it, reverse engineer it, or otherwise tamper with it or reproduce it. Heights reserves the right to revoke our license for our App’s use at any time.

13. Server Maintenance and Other Downtime

At time, Heights may have server downtime or other Service outages for reasons including, but not limited to, server maintenance, legal compliance, security issues, or other business operations. You agree that we are not liable for any losses incurred by you as a result of such downtime, and that you should have a backup plan in place if you are relying on our Service for any purpose which could cause a loss to you if our Service became unavailable.

14. Our Copyright

Heights expended much effort on developing its App and ensuring that it is unique from other Apps. Copying our App or any portion thereof could, in addition to being prohibited generally by intellectual property law, harm our business. You agree not to copy, distribute, display, disseminate, or otherwise reproduce any of the information on the Site, including our App, without receiving our prior written permission.

15. Your Copyright

Heights must be assured that it has the right to use the content that is uploaded using its App. Such content may include, but is not limited to, arrangements of data by Users in which a copyright subsides. Whenever submitting content to us through our App, you agree that you are granting us a non-exclusive, universal, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicensable, commercial and non-commercial right to use the content that you submit to us for the purpose of providing you with our Service. You warrant to us that you have the right to grant us this right over the content, and that you will indemnify us for any loss resulting from a breach of this warranty and defend us against claims regarding the same.

16. Trademarks and Service Marks

• The name and description of the work that is being infringed.
• The location on our website of the infringing copy.

• A statement that you swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information contained in this notification is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or have an exclusive right in law to bring infringement proceedings with respect to its use.

You must sign this notification and send it to our Copyright Agent at support@heightsplatform.com. Since we request notification by e-mail, an electronic signature is acceptable.

Although U.S. law does not provide for a similar procedure for trademark infringement, we recommend that you send us similar information to that above in regards to any allegation of trademark infringement, and we will address it as soon as practicable.

19. Representations & Warranties

WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY OF OUR SERVICE OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE RELEASING US FROM ANY LIABILITY THAT WE MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO YOU IN RELATION TO OR ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR OUR SERVICES, FOR REASONS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FAILURE OF OUR SERVICE, NEGLIGENCE, OR ANY OTHER TORT. TO THE EXTENT THAT APPLICABLE LAW RESTRICTS THIS RELEASE OF LIABILITY, YOU AGREE THAT WE ARE ONLY LIABLE TO YOU FOR THE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF DAMAGES THAT THE LAW RESTRICTS OUR LIABILITY TO, IF SUCH A MINIMUM EXISTS.

YOU AGREE THAT WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WAY FOR DAMAGES CAUSED BY THIRD PARTIES WHO MAY USE OUR SERVICES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO PEOPLE WHO COMMIT INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT, DEFAMATION, TORTIOUS INTERFERENCE WITH ECONOMIC RELATIONS, OR ANY OTHER ACTIONABLE CONDUCT TOWARDS YOU.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY MISUSE OF OUR APP, AND YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE SUITABILITY OF OUR APP AS IT APPLIES TO YOU.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSSES WHICH RESULT FROM SERVER DOWNTIME OR OTHER TECHNICAL ISSUES.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FAILURE ON THE PART OF OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR TO PROCESS YOUR PAYMENTS PROPERLY, AND YOU SHOULD CONTACT THEM AND/OR YOUR CARD COMPANY DIRECTLY TO SOLVE ANY PAYMENT ISSUES WHICH YOU MAY HAVE.

WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE OF THE GOODS OR SERVICES OF OUR COMPANY OR A THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING ANY FAILURES OR DISRUPTIONS, UNTIMELY DELIVERY, SCHEDULED OR UNSCHEDULED, INTENTIONAL OR UNINTENTIONAL, ON OUR WEBSITE WHICH PREVENT ACCESS TO OUR WEBSITE TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY.

THE PROVISION OF OUR SERVICE TO YOU IS CONTINGENT ON YOUR AGREEMENT WITH THIS AND ALL OTHER SECTIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. NOTHING IN THE PROVISIONS OF THIS “REPRESENTATIONS & WARRANTIES” SECTION SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO LIMIT THE GENERALITY OF THE FIRST PARAGRAPH OF THIS SECTION.

For Jurisdictions that do not allow us to limit our liability: Notwithstanding any provision of these Terms, if your jurisdiction has provisions specific to waiver or liability that conflict with the above then our liability is limited to the smallest extent possible by law. Specifically, in those jurisdictions not allowed, we do not disclaim liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by its negligence or that of any of its officers, employees or agents; or (b) fraudulent misrepresentation; or (c) any liability which it is not lawful to exclude either now or in the future.

IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF A JURISDICTION THAT REQUIRES A SPECIFIC STATEMENT REGARDING RELEASE THEN THE FOLLOWING APPLIES. FOR EXAMPLE, CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS MUST, AS A CONDITION OF THIS AGREEMENT, WAIVE THE APPLICABILITY OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH STATES, “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR." YOU HEREBY WAIVE THIS SECTION OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE. YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY SIMILAR PROVISION IN LAW, REGULATION, OR CODE THAT HAS THE SAME INTENT OR EFFECT AS THE AFOREMENTIONED RELEASE.

20. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless for any claims by you or any third party which may arise from or relate to this Agreement or the provision of our service to you, including any damages caused by your use of our website or acceptance of the offers contained on it. You also agree that you have a duty to defend us against such claims and we may require you to pay for an attorney(s) of our choice in such cases. You agree that this indemnity extends to requiring you to pay for our reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and disbursements. In the event of a claim such as one described in this paragraph, we may elect to settle with the party/parties making the claim, and you shall be liable for the damages as though we had proceeded with a trial.

Heights provides an App to its Users as a service. Heights is not a marketplace, and is not responsible for any interactions between its Users and their Students.

21. Choice of Law

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws in force in the State of Texas. The offer and acceptance of this contract are deemed to have occurred in the State of Texas.

22. Forum of Dispute

You agree that any dispute arising from or relating to this Agreement will be heard solely by a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Texas. Specifically, where the subject matter of a dispute is eligible for it, you agree that any disputes shall be heard solely within the lowest court of competent jurisdiction having the authority to hear civil matters in the State of Texas (“Small Claims Court”).

If a dispute claims multiple claims and one or more of those claims would be eligible to be heard by the Small Claims Court, you agree not to bring the other claims against us and to instead proceed within the Small Claims Court.

If you would be entitled in a dispute to an amount exceeding the monetary jurisdiction of the Small Claims Court, you agree to waive your right to collect any damages in excess of the monetary jurisdiction and instead still bring your claim within the Small Claims Court.

You agree that if a dispute is eligible to be heard in Small Claims Court but you would be entitled to an additional or alternative remedy in a higher court, such as injunctive relief, you will waive your right to that remedy and still bring the dispute within the Small Claims Court.

If you bring a dispute in a manner other than in accordance with this section, you agree that we may move to have it dismissed, and that you will be responsible for our reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and disbursements in doing so.

You agree that the unsuccessful party in any dispute arising from or relating to this Agreement will be responsible for the reimbursement of the successful party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and disbursements.

If for any reason the provisions in this section as to the proper forum of dispute are found to be unenforceable and another state may have jurisdiction over such disputes, you agree that this section shall apply as analogously as possible in that other state, including but not limited to the requirement that the dispute be brought in that state’s small claims court.

23. Force Majeure

You agree that we are not responsible to you for anything that we may otherwise be responsible for, if it is the result of events beyond our control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, war, insurrection, riots, terrorism, crime, labor shortages (including lawful and unlawful strikes), embargoes, postal disruption, communication disruption, unavailability of payment processors, failure or shortage of infrastructure, shortage of materials, or any other event beyond our control.

24. Severability

In the event that a provision of this Agreement is found to be unlawful, conflicting with another provision of the Agreement, or otherwise unenforceable, the Agreement will remain in force as though it had been entered into without that unenforceable provision being included in it.

If two or more provisions of this Agreement are deemed to conflict with each other’s operation, Heights shall have the sole right to elect which provision remains in force.

25. Non-Waiver

Heights reserves all rights afforded to us under this Agreement as well as under the provisions of any applicable law. Our non-enforcement of any particular provision or provisions of this Agreement or the any applicable law should not be construed as our waiver of the right to enforce that same provision under the same or different circumstances at any time in the future.

26. Termination & Cancellation

We may terminate your account or access as well as access to our Site and Service to you at our discretion without explanation, though we will strive to provide a timely explanation in most cases. Our liability for refunding you, if you have paid anything to us, will be limited to the amount you paid for goods or services which have not yet been and will not be delivered, except in cases where the termination or cancellation was due to your breach of this Agreement, in which case you agree that we are not required to provide any refund or other compensation whatsoever.

27. Assignment of Rights

You may not assign your rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to any other party without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to any other party at our discretion.

8. Your rights

8.1 In this Section 8, we have summarised the rights that you have under data protection law. Some of the rights are complex, and not all of the details have been included in our summaries. Accordingly, you should read the relevant laws and guidance from the regulatory authorities for a full explanation of these rights.

8.2 Your principal rights under data protection law are:

(a) the right to access;

(b) the right to rectification;

(c) the right to erasure;

(d) the right to restrict processing;

(e) the right to object to processing;

(f) the right to data portability;

(g) the right to complain to a supervisory authority; and

(h) the right to withdraw consent.

8.3 You have the right to confirmation as to whether or not we process your personal data and, where we do, access to the personal data, together with certain additional information. That additional information includes details of the purposes of the processing, the categories of personal data concerned and the recipients of the personal data. Providing the rights and freedoms of others are not affected, we will supply to you a copy of your personal data. The first copy will be provided free of charge, but additional copies may be subject to a reasonable fee.

8.4 You have the right to have any inaccurate personal data about you rectified and, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have any incomplete personal data about you completed.

8.5 In some circumstances you have the right to the erasure of your personal data without undue delay. Those circumstances include: the personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed; you withdraw consent to consent-based processing; you object to the processing under certain rules of applicable data protection law; the processing is for direct marketing purposes; and the personal data have been unlawfully processed. However, there are exclusions of the right to erasure. The general exclusions include where processing is necessary: for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information; for compliance with a legal obligation; or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

8.6 In some circumstances you have the right to restrict the processing of your personal data. Those circumstances are: you contest the accuracy of the personal data; processing is unlawful but you oppose erasure; we no longer need the personal data for the purposes of our processing, but you require personal data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; and you have objected to processing, pending the verification of that objection. Where processing has been restricted on this basis, we may continue to store your personal data. However, we will only otherwise process it: with your consent; for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person; or for reasons of important public interest.

8.7 You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation, but only to the extent that the legal basis for the processing is that the processing is necessary for: the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of any official authority vested in us; or the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party. If you make such an objection, we will cease to process the personal information unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

8.8 You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes (including profiling for direct marketing purposes). If you make such an objection, we will cease to process your personal data for this purpose.

8.9 You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes on grounds relating to your particular situation, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

8.10 To the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your personal data is:

(a) consent; or

(b) that the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are party or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, and such processing is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your personal data from us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. However, this right does not apply where it would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

8.11 If you consider that our processing of your personal information infringes data protection laws, you have a legal right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority responsible for data protection. You may do so in the EU member state of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.

8.12 To the extent that the legal basis for our processing of your personal information is consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal.

8.13 You may exercise any of your rights in relation to your personal data by email or phone (contact details at the bottom of this page), in addition to the other methods specified in this Section 8. Required actions will be completed within 1 month.

Non-Identifying Information

Whenever you visit our Site, we may collect non-identifying information from you, such as your IP address, referring URL, browser, operating system, cookie information, and Internet Service Provider. Without a subpoena, voluntary compliance on the part of your Internet Service Provider, or additional records from a third party, this information alone cannot usually be used to identify you.

4. Use of Your Information

We may use your information to:

• Enhance or improve User experience, our Site, or our Service.
• Process transactions.
• Send e-mails about our Site or respond to inquiries.
• Target advertisements that we believe may be of interest to you.

• Provide support to help you improve your program and or courses within them.
• Tracking behavior metrics for improvement of our Service. Please note that although we may track User behavior (e.g., last login date and percentage of lessons completed, last lesson views, numbers of students and courses in a program), we will not store and track sensitive payment information on our servers. Payment information is instead stored by a PCI compliant third party vendor (Stripe).
• If Heights merges with or is acquired by another company. Should this ever happen, we will notify you before any personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different policy.
• Perform any other function that we believe in good faith is necessary to protect the security or proper functioning of our Site or Service.

5. Accessing, Editing, and Removing Your Information

Users may in some cases be able to review and edit the personal information they have provided to us by logging into your account on the Site and editing their account. Although most changes may occur immediately, information may still be stored in a web browser’s cache. We take no responsibility for stored information in your cache, or in other devices that may store information, and disclaim all liability of such. In addition, we may, from time to time, retain residual information about you in our backup and/or database.

6. Cookies

We use cookies to create a session and remember a User as they use our Site, in order to distinguish them from other Users. We also use them to remember your preferences, compile statistical data about the usage of our Site, protect against malicious usage of our Site and optimize the speed of our Site. For this reason, it is necessary that you enable cookies in your browser in order to use our Service, and you hereby acknowledge that we have informed you of our use of cookies and that you consent to our use of cookies in relation to your computer system. There are four primary uses for different types of cookies we may use:

Revoking permission of certain cookies that are not operation essential for us to provide our service:

Heights uses the Facebook Conversion Tracking Pixel, a service of Facebook, Inc. (https://www.facebook.com/policy.php). This cookie is an advertising type cookie which allows us to record the results of our advertisement performance for marketing purposes. You can revoke the permission for Facebook to track this at the following link: https://www.facebook.com/ads/website_custom_audiences/

Heights uses Google Analytics, a service of Google, Inc. (https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en) which allows us to track visits to our website and other browser data so that we can improve your experience. Our particular use of Google Analytics keeps your IP address anonymized before Google records it. This anonymized, or masked IP address, will not be connected to any other data on Google. This is an analytics type cookie. You can prevent analysis of your browser behavior across all websites using Google Analytics by installing this browser plugin: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Google Analytics Advertising Features may also use anonymized insights into your device behaviors, and you can access and or delete such data via Google's "My Activity" page.

7. Third Party Websites

Heights may post links to third party websites on its Site. These third party websites are not screened for privacy or security issues by Heights, and you release us from any liability for the conduct of these third party websites.

Please be aware that this Privacy Policy, and any other policies in place, in addition to any amendments, does not create rights enforceable by third parties or require disclosure of any personal information relating to members of the Service or Site. Heights bears no responsibility for the information collected or used by any advertiser or third party website. Please review the privacy policy and terms of service for each site you visit through third party links.

8. Third Party Access to Your Information

Although you are entering into an Agreement with Heights to disclose your information to us, we do use third party individuals and organizations to assist us, including contractors, web hosts, and others.

Throughout the course of our provision of our Service to you, we may delegate our authority to collect, access, use, and disseminate your information. For example, our web host stores the information that you provide us, and we may hire outside contractors to perform maintenance or assist us in securing our website. A current list of vendors is available upon request.

It is therefore necessary that you grant the third parties we may use in the course of our business the same rights that you afford us under this Privacy Policy. For this reason, you hereby agree that for every authorization which you grant to us in this Privacy Policy, you also grant to any third party that we may hire, contract, or otherwise retain the services of for the purpose of operating, maintaining, repairing, or otherwise improving or preserving our website or its underlying files or systems. You agree not to hold us liable for the actions of any of these third parties, even if we would normally be held vicariously liable for their actions, and that you must take legal action against them directly should they commit any tort or other actionable wrong against you.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you authorize us to use the following third party services which may also store data about you:

• Anonymized: Any data that could be used to identify the data subject is scrubbed, or a specific encryption policy is used in a case where data is not anonymized.
• Discarded: Data is destroyed automatically without requiring a request by data subject
• Archived: Data can only be accessed by Heights founder.

Community Visibility

Users have the option to make certain community channels or posts publicly visible and indexable by search engines. In these public areas, you should have no expectation of privacy. Content you post or share in such areas may be viewed, copied, or otherwise shared by third parties, and we cannot control or prevent further distribution by those external parties. This includes indexing by search engines or caching on third-party websites, which may persist even if you later remove the content from our Service.

If you choose to post personal or sensitive information — whether yours or that of a third party — in these publicly visible areas, you acknowledge and represent that you have all necessary rights or consents to do so. Heights is not responsible for the use, misuse, or further distribution of content you make publicly available in these channels. If you wish to remove publicly posted content, you may do so from within your account or by contacting us. Please note, however, that removing content from our platform does not guarantee its removal from third-party caches or archives.

You authorize us to allow third party Site and App visitors to view and download data to their respective devices (not limited to mobile phones, tablets, laptops, computers), whether these third party visitors access this content via our Site, App or view and download this content via any mobile application which displays it. Without limiting generality, you understand that the ability of other parties to view information you save in our App and Site is a part of the Service we are providing to you.

9. Release of Your Information for Legal Purposes

At times it may become necessary, for legal purposes, to release your information in response to a request from a government agency or a private litigant. You agree that we may disclose your information to a third party where we believe, in good faith, that it is desirable to do so for the purposes of a civil action, criminal investigation, or other legal matter. In the event that we receive a subpoena affecting your privacy, unless we are legally prevented from it, we will notify you to give you an opportunity to file a motion to quash the subpoena, or we may attempt to quash it ourselves, but we are not obligated to do either. We may also proactively report you, and release your information to, third parties where we believe that it is prudent to do so for legal reasons, such as our belief that you have engaged in fraudulent activities. You release us from any damages that may arise from or relate to the release of your information to a request from law enforcement agencies or private litigants.

10. Commercial and Non-Commercial Communications

By providing information to the Site that forms the basis of communication with you, such as contact information, you waive all rights to file complaints concerning unsolicited email from Heights since, by providing such information, you agree to receive communication from us other anyone else covered under this Privacy Policy. However, you may unsubscribe from marketing communications by clicking on the unsubscribe links in our marketing emails, or by notifying Heights that you no longer wish to receive solicitations or information and we will remove you from the database. We may still send certain transactional emails required in order to provide you notice to important alerts regarding your account in our Service.

11. Security Measures

We take certain measures to enhance the security of our Site and Service, such as by using SSL Certificates. Your data is encrypted in transit between you and Heights for account and payment related pages. Should you be accessing our service through a custom domain (ie: a domain other than heightsplatform.com), ensure that the domain used to access our service also has HTTPS if you want your data to be encrypted throughout our entire App. We make routine, secure backups of your data, and we use multiple techniques to eliminate points of failure. We also conduct security reviews on our Service periodically and ensure that third party contractors and employees only have access to the information that is necessary for them to perform their job. However, we make no representations as to the security or privacy of your information. It is in our best interest to keep our website secure, but we recommend that you exercise precautions and use anti-virus software, firewalls, and other precautions such as not telling others your password to protect yourself from security threats. If you need to report an exploit, or you have noticed and incident with your account, please contact us at security@heightsplatform.com.

12. Security Breach Notifications

In the event that your private data are disclosed to unauthorized people (ie: hackers), Heights will send email notifications to all possibly affected parties. We may also make an announcement on our Site directly.

13. Deleted Data

We retain your personal information for the duration of our business relationship, and afterwards for as long as necessary for legitimate business purposes until you exercise your right to erase your personal information. When you request your account and personal information be deleted, we’ll ensure that nothing is stored on our servers past 30 days. Data that you choose to delete from your account while it is active will also be deleted within 30 days, though most data is deleted instantly.
