Empower Privacy Policy
Last Revised - January 2023
General
One Absolute, LLC ("One Absolute, "we," "us" and/or "our") is dedicated to protecting your personal information and informing you about how we use it. This privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy" or the "Policy") is intended to provide information to our visitors ("you," "your") about how we collect, protect, share and use your information as part of our technology platforms, including, without limitation, our company website (the "Site"), mobile sites and/or applications (together with the Site, the "Services"). This Privacy Policy outlines how and when One Absolute collects, protects, shares, and uses information that can identify you individually ("Personal Information"), such as your name, email, telephone number, employment information, or payment information (such as paycheck information). Personal Information does not include information that is anonymous, aggregated, or can no longer be used to identify you as an individual. Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy before using or submitting information through the Services. By using or submitting information through the Services, you are indicating that you agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy covers the privacy practices of One Absolute only. This Policy does not apply to the practices of third party websites, services or applications, including third parties with which we partner. These third party services are governed by each such third party's privacy policy. One Absolute is not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of technology platforms other than that of One Absolute, and One Absolute is not responsible for the failure of unaffiliated third parties to honor their privacy obligations.
Information We Collect
When you interact with us through the Services, we may collect Personal Information and other information from you, as further described below:
Personal Information That You Provide Through the Services: We collect Personal Information from you when you provide such information, such as when you create an account ("Account"), complete and/or use one of our online forms, tools or content items, contact us with inquiries, respond to one of our surveys, or use certain Services. If you sign up for the Services, you will be asked to provide Personal Information such as your email address, first and last name, telephone number, and other information that identifies you.
Information We Collect Automatically
Site Usage Information: One Absolute may use a variety of technologies that passively or automatically collect information about how the Services are accessed and used, including your browser type, device type, operating system, application version, the pages served to you, the time you browse, preceding page views, and your use of particular features of the Services. This statistical data helps us understand what is interesting and relevant to users of the Services so that we can best tailor our content to you.
Device Identifiers: One Absolute also automatically collects an IP address or other unique identifier for the computer, mobile device, technology or other device (collectively "Device") you use to access the Services. A "Device Identifier" is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device when you access a web site or its servers, and our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier. We may use a Device Identifier to, among other things, administer the Services, help diagnose problems with our servers, analyze trends, track users' web page movements, monitor against theft and fraud, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. If you access the Services on a mobile Device, we may request access to settings and location information for similar purposes and to personalize your experience with the Services. Most mobile devices allow you to turn off location services or push notifications. Please note that if you choose not to provide us with this information, you may not be able to use all of the features of the Services.
Session Trackers: In operating the Services, we may use cookies and similar session tracking technologies ("Session Trackers"). Session trackers help provide additional functionality to the Services, customize users' experiences with the Services and help us analyze Services usage more accurately for research and product development purposes. We (including third parties that we work with) may place session trackers on your Device for security purposes, to facilitate navigation of the Services, and to personalize your experience while using our Services. If you would prefer not to accept Session Trackers when using the Services, follow the instructions provided by your website or mobile browser (usually located within the "Help", "Tools" or "Edit" facility) to modify your Session Tracker settings. Please note that if you disable Session Trackers, you may not be able to access certain parts of our Services and other parts of our Services may not work properly. As a result, we recommend that you leave Session Trackers turned on when accessing the Services because they allow you to take advantage of some of the Services' features.
Web Beacons: In addition to Session Trackers, we may use web beacons (also known as "clear GIFs"), which are transparent graphic images placed on a web page or in an email and indicate that a page or email has been viewed or tell your browser to get content from another server. We use web beacons to measure traffic to or from, or use of, our online forms, tools or content items and related browsing behavior and to improve your experience when using the Services. We may also use customized links or other similar technologies to track hyperlinks that you click and associate that information with your Personal Information in order to provide you with more focused communications.
Non-Personal Information: Additionally, we may modify and combine Personal Information in a manner that does not personally identify you or any other individual and thus, no longer constitutes "Personal Information". We may use this non-Personal Information, such as aggregate user statistics, demographic information, and usage information, for any lawful purpose.
Information from Third Parties
We may receive information about you from third parties. For example, the Services may include features from social media platforms such as Facebook, and we may enable you to register or log-in to the Services through a social media platform. These features use Session Trackers to collect information about your IP address, and your use of the Services. Your interactions with those features are governed by the terms of use and privacy policies of the companies that provide them.
We may also receive Personal Information about you from third parties, such as the program you are part of, or your employer, to enhance our ability to tailor our services to you, or for other reasons. If we combine such data with information we collect through the Services, such information is subject to this Privacy Policy unless we have disclosed otherwise.
How We Use Information
We may use the information we collect for a variety of reasons related to our operation and your use of the Services. We may combine information about you that we collect on-line, via mobile applications, and from third-party sources.
Examples of specific ways in which One Absolute may use your Personal Information include, but are not limit to the following:
Responding to your requests (including, for example, if you contact us to ask a question or report an issue with the Services, we may use the Personal Information you provide to answer your question or resolve your problem);
Improving the content, appearance and utility of the Services;
Providing necessary notices to you and notifying you about updates to the Services;
Assessing your eligibility for an Account;
Configuring your Account settings;
Communicating with you about your Account and use of the Services;

Marketing or promotional purposes
Email Communications. We may use your Personal Information to provide you with marketing or other promotional communications via email. If, at any time, you would like to stop receiving these promotional e-mails, you may follow the opt-out instructions contained in any such e-mail. Please note that by opting out, you may prohibit One Absolute from informing you of offerings that may be of interest to you. It may take up to ten business days for us to process opt-out requests. If you opt-out of receiving emails or promotions from us, we still may send you e-mails about services you have requested or received from us, or for other customer service purposes.
Short Message Service ("SMS") Communications. We may use your Personal Information to provide you with marketing or other promotional communications via SMS. If, at any time, you would like to stop receiving promotional text messages, you may opt-out by texting the word "STOP". You may also reply "STOP" to any message you receive from us. Upon receipt of your "STOP" message, we will send you a SMS message to confirm that you have been unsubscribed. At that point, you will no longer receive any further SMS messages from One Absolute. If you need any assistance, you can always text the word "HELP" or reply "HELP" to any message you receive from us. Upon receipt of your "HELP" message, we will respond with "STOP' instructions and a link to our Privacy Policy. Please note that by opting out, you may prohibit One Absolute from informing you of offerings that may be of interest to you.
When do we disclose the Personal Information we collect?
Except as provided herein, One Absolute will not sell, rent or otherwise disclose Personal Information about you to third parties.
We do not share your Personal Information with: (1) financial companies for marketing purposes; (2) affiliated companies for their everyday business purposes; or (3) any third parties so that they can market to you.
Business transfers. As we continue to develop our business, we may sell or purchase assets. If another entity acquires us or our assets, or assets related to the Services, Personal Information, information about how the Services are accessed and used, and any other information that we have collected about the users of the Services may be disclosed to such entity as one of the transferred assets. Also if any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is brought by or against us, all such information may be considered an asset of ours and as such may be sold or transferred to third parties.
Legal disclosures. One Absolute may transfer and disclose information, including your Personal Information, information about how the Services are accessed and used, and information from our service providers, to third parties to comply with a legal obligation; when we believe in good faith that the law requires it; at the request of governmental authorities conducting an investigation; to verify or enforce applicable policies; to respond to an emergency; or otherwise to protect the rights, property, safety or security of third parties, visitors to our Services or the public. With your permission. At your direction or request, we may share your Personal Information with specified third parties.
Your Privacy Rights and Information Retention
If you wish to modify, verify, correct, delete, or update any of your Personal Information collected through the Services, you may edit your Account information or contact us at https://empowerme.app/contact
In accordance with our routine record keeping, we may delete certain records that contain Personal Information you have submitted through the Services. We are under no obligation to store such Personal Information indefinitely and disclaim any liability arising out of, or related to, the destruction of such Personal Information. In addition, you should be aware that it is not always possible to completely remove or delete all of your information from our databases without some residual data because of backups and other reasons.
We will retain your Personal Information as long as your Account has not been deactivated, or as needed to provide you services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements. An Account will be considered "deactivated" if you affirmatively request that we deactivate your account by emailing us at https://empowerme.app/contact. We will deactivate a user Account by erasing it from our database within 30 days of receiving your written request.
Security of your Personal Information
One Absolute maintains reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect your Personal Information. One Absolute restricts authorized access to your Personal Information to those persons who have a legitimate purpose to know that information to provide products or services to you and those persons you have authorized to have access to such information. However, no electronic data transmission or storage of information can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Please note that we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you transmit to us. You use the Services and provide us with your Personal Information at your own risk.
Your Account may be authenticated using SMS Device verification for your privacy and security. You need to prevent unauthorized access to your Account and Personal Information by implementing and protecting your Device password appropriately and limiting access to your Device. We also recommend that you change your Device password periodically. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Account username and password. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of your Account has been compromised), you must immediately notify us of the problem by contacting us and change your password immediately via the Services.
Children Under 13
The Services are not directed to children under 13 years of age and we do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with Personal Information, we will make reasonable efforts to delete such information from our files.
Your California Privacy Rights
California law provides California residents the right to request from One Absolute: (i) a list of the categories of Personal Information that we have disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes; and (ii) the names and addresses of all such third parties. If you would like to request this information, please email your request to https://empowerme.app/contact. In your request, please specify that you want a "Your Empower California Privacy Rights Notice". Please allow 30 days for a response.
California Do Not Track Disclosures
One Absolute does not track you across third party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. Nor do we knowingly authorize third parties to conduct online tracking through One Absolute's Services.
Consent to Processing and Transfer of Information
The Services are governed by and operated in, and in accordance with the laws of, the United States, and are intended for the enjoyment of residents of the United States. If you use the Services, or otherwise provide us with data, from outside the United States, you acknowledge and agree that your Personal Information may be transmitted outside your resident jurisdiction. In particular, please note that your Personal Information may be stored and processed in the United States.

By using the Services, you (a) acknowledge that the Services are subject to the laws of the United States; (b) consent to your Personal Information being stored and processed in the United States and handled as described in this Policy; and (c) waive any claims that may arise under the laws of the country where you reside, are a citizen, and/or from where you access the Services.

Any summaries of this Policy generated by third party software or otherwise shall have no legal effect, are in no way binding upon One Absolute, shall not be relied upon in substitute for this Policy, and neither supersede nor modify this Policy.
