Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 14, 2022

Moonpark is an inclusive platform made for connecting in person.

This is why we believe in being transparent about how we use your information.

• Background Information. For moonpark users in the United States, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, we may obtain reports from public records of criminal convictions or sex offender registrations.

By posting a class on the platform, you also agree to have other users contact you through our messaging function.

4.3 Compliance with Law.

4.4 Analyzing your Communications. We may review, scan, or analyze your communications on the moonpark platform for reasons outlined in the “How We Use Information We Collect” section of this policy, including fraud prevention, risk assessment, regulatory compliance, investigation, product development, research, analytics, enforcing our Terms of Service, and customer support purposes. For example, as part of our fraud prevention efforts, we scan and analyze messages to mask contact information and references to other sites. In some cases, we may also scan, review, or analyze messages to debug, improve, and expand product offerings. We use automated methods where reasonably possible. Occasionally we may need to manually review communications, such as for fraud investigations and customer support, or to assess and improve the functionality of these automated tools. We will not review, scan, or analyze your messaging communications to send third-party marketing messages to you and we will not sell reviews or analyses of these communications.

You have the right to ask us to delete your personal information, subject to certain limitations and restrictions. Please note that if you request the erasure of your personal information:

• We may retain your personal information as necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as prevention of money laundering, fraud detection, and prevention and enhancing safety.

• We may retain and use your personal information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations. For example, moonpark may keep your information for tax, legal reporting, and auditing obligations.
• Information you have shared with others (e.g., reviews) will continue to be publicly visible on moonpark, even after your moonpark account is canceled. However, attribution of such information to you will be removed.
• Some copies of your information (e.g., log records) will remain in our database but are disassociated from personal identifiers.
• Because we maintain moonpark to protect from accidental or malicious loss and destruction, residual copies of your personal information may not be removed from our backup systems for a limited period of time.

WITHDRAWING CONSENT

If we are processing your personal information based on your consent you can withdraw your consent at any time by changing your account settings or by sending a communication to moonpark specifying which consent you are withdrawing. Please note that the withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing activities based on such consent before its withdrawal.

OBJECTION TO PROCESSING

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal information based on grounds specific to your situation if such processing is for direct marketing or is for a purpose based on legitimate interest or public interest.

• the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide moonpark to you (for example, for as long as you have an account with us or keep using moonpark);
• whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject (for example, certain laws require us to keep records of your transactions for a certain period of time before we can delete them); and/or
• whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position (such as in regard to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation or regulatory investigations).

11. California and Vermont Supplement

If you reside in California or Vermont this section applies to you and supplements the moonpark Privacy Policy.

CALIFORNIA AND VERMONT RESIDENTS

Moonpark will not share information it collects about you with its affiliates or third parties (both financial and non-financial), except as required or permitted by your state’s law.

CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

California law permits users who are California residents to request and obtain from us once a year, free of charge, a list of the third parties to whom we have disclosed their personal information (if any) for direct marketing purposes in the prior calendar year, as well as the type of personal information disclosed to those third parties. Moonpark does not share personal information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes without your prior consent. Accordingly, you can prevent the disclosure of your personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes by withholding consent.

Effective January 1, 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) allows California residents, upon a verifiable consumer request, to request that a business that collects consumers’ personal information to give consumers access, in a portable and (if technically feasible) readily usable form, to the specific pieces and categories of personal information that the business has collected about the consumer, the categories of sources for that information, the business or commercial purposes for collecting the information, and the categories of third parties with which the information was shared. For more information about how we collect, use, and disclose personal information for business purposes, please review our Privacy Policy. California residents also have the right to submit a request for deletion of information under certain circumstances. Consistent with California law, if you choose to exercise your rights, we won’t charge you different prices or provide different quality of services unless those differences are related to your information. Please note that you must verify your identity and request before further action is taken. As a part of this process, government identification may be required. Consistent with California law, you may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. In order to designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, you must provide a valid power of attorney, the requestor’s valid government-issued identification, and the authorized agent’s valid government-issued identification.

We do not sell personal information to third parties. We do allow third parties to collect personal information through the moonpark platform and share personal information with third parties for the business purposes described in the Privacy Policy, including without limitation advertising and marketing on the moonpark platform and elsewhere based on users’ online activities over time and across moonpark, services, and devices.
