Security Of Data

The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Links To Other Sites

Our Service may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. Philosophit has no control over and assumes no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third party sites or services.

Access to Your Account and Profiles

In order to provide you with ease of access to your account and to help administer the Philosophit service, we use technology that enables us to recognize you as the account holder and provide you with direct access to your account without requiring you to retype any password or other user identification when you revisit the Philosophit service. You can choose not to take advantage of this feature on your computer by unchecking the box “Remember me on this device” when you log in to the website.

To remove access to your Philosophit account from your devices: (a) visit your “Profile” icon, choose “Sign out of all devices,” and follow the instructions to deactivate your devices (note, deactivation may not occur immediately) or (b) delete your Philosophit settings from your device (steps vary by device and the option is not available on all devices).

Where possible, users of public or shared devices should log out at the completion of each visit. If you sell or return a computer or Philosophit ready device, you should log out and deactivate the device before doing so. If you do not maintain the security of your password or device, or fail to log out or deactivate your device, subsequent users may be able to access your account, including your personal information.

If you share or otherwise allow others to have access to your account, they will be able to see your information (including in some cases personal information) such as your history, ratings, reviews and account information (including your email address or other information in your “Profile”).

Security

We use reasonable administrative, logical, physical and managerial measures to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft and unauthorized access, use and modification. Unfortunately, no measures can be guaranteed to provide 100% security. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the security of your information.

Other Websites, Platforms and Applications

The Philosophit service may be provided through and/or utilize features (such as voice controls) operated by third party platforms, or contain links to sites operated by third parties whose policies regarding the handling of information may differ from ours.
