We may use and share aggregated data and other anonymous information at our discretion.
TRADEMARKS
The Company’s name, the Company’s logo, the terms BrainOS®, Autonomy by Brain, EMMA, Brain Corp., and BRAIN, and all related names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans are trademarks of the Company, its affiliates, or its licensors. You must not use such trademarks without our prior written permission.

WHY WE COLLECT INFORMATION
We collect data to operate effectively and provide you the best experience with our products and services. You provide some of this data directly. In other instances, we obtain it by recording how you interact with our products and services. Data is critical for building smarter robots and is what makes our products possible. You help build this data. The data your robots generate feeds into our machine learning algorithms, software development, data analysis, and testing. The data is also used to support the products and services you purchase using data analytics. Without the ability to leverage data across a wide variety of applications, stores, and customers, our robots would not be able to perform as they do today.
COLLECTION OF INFORMATION FROM CHILDREN
We recognize the importance of protecting the privacy and safety of children. Our website and services are directed towards the general audience and are not directed towards children. We do not knowingly collect information about children under the age of 13 or minors otherwise defined in local law or regulation without verifiable parental consent. If we learn that someone under 13 has provided personal information through our website, we will use reasonable efforts to remove that information from our databases.
CHOOSING NOT TO SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
Where we are required by law to collect your personal information, or where we need your personal information in order to provide products and services to you, if you do not provide this information when requested (or you later ask to delete it), we may not be able to provide you with our products and services. We will instruct you as to what information you must provide to receive our products and services by designating it as required through other appropriate means.
SECURING YOUR INFORMATION
Keeping your information private is vitally important to us. We take appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction, and we consider the risks involved in the processing and nature of your personal information. However, please note that no system can be 100% secure and we do not ensure or warrant the security of any information we collect. If you have questions about the security of your personal information, you may contact us at PRIVACY@BRAINCORPORATION.COM.
SENSITIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION
We ask that you not send us, and you not disclose, any sensitive personal information on our website (e.g., social security numbers, information related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion or other beliefs, health, biometrics or genetic characteristics, criminal background or trade union membership). If you send or disclose any sensitive personal information to us, you are giving your consent to our processing and use of such sensitive personal information in accordance with this privacy statement. If you do not consent to our processing and use of such sensitive personal information, you must not submit such sensitive personal information.
INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER
We are headquartered in the United States and our users, customers and agents may be located outside of the United States. When you provide us with personal information, that information may be sent electronically to servers outside the country or jurisdiction of where the information was entered originally. In addition, that information may potentially be used, stored and processed outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction.
DATA BREACH RESPONSE
Security of all information is of the utmost importance for us. We use technical and physical safeguards to protect the security of your personal information from unauthorized disclosure. We use encryption technology to keep information secure. We also make all attempts to ensure that only necessary people and third parties have access to personal information. Nevertheless, such security measures cannot prevent all loss, misuse or alteration of personal information and we are not responsible for any damages or liabilities relating to any such incidents to the fullest extent permitted by law. In the case of a data breach, we will notify you of any loss, misuse or alteration of personal information that may affect you.
RETAINING YOUR INFORMATION
We retain your personal information when we have an ongoing legitimate business or legal need to do so. Our retention periods will vary depending on the type of data involved, but generally to determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, whether it is needed to provide services, whether there is a contractual or legal need to retain the data, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to retain your personal information we will either delete or anonymize it or, if that is not possible (for example, your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. We do not have an obligation to retain your personal information for any specific length of time.
