SHIFT LLC ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how your personal information is collected, used, and disclosed by SHIFT LLC.
This Privacy Policy applies to Python Playground, including our website, associated subdomains, browser extension experiences, account features, optional cloud-enabled features, checkout flows, and related support services (collectively, our "Service"). By accessing or using our Service, you signify that you have read and understood our collection, storage, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service.
To help explain things as clearly as possible in this Privacy Policy, every time any of these terms are referenced, are strictly defined as:
We collect information from you when you visit our website, create or use an account, place an order, contact support, or use optional cloud-enabled features.
Any of the information we collect from you may be used in one of the following ways:
SHIFT LLC may receive limited end user information from third-party providers that help us operate the Service, such as authentication, analytics, hosting, storage, fraud prevention, or payment partners.
For example, these providers may send us account identifiers, verification events, transaction status, or aggregated usage information needed to provide or secure Python Playground.
When you use paid or cloud-enabled features, we may receive customer information from third parties such as payment processors, billing providers, authentication providers, and infrastructure partners in order to activate service, verify access, prevent abuse, and support your account.
We may share the information that we collect, both personal and non-personal, with current or future affiliated companies, service providers, and business partners that help us operate Python Playground. If we are involved in a merger, asset sale, or other business reorganization, we may also share or transfer your information to our successors-in-interest.
We may engage trusted third party service providers to perform functions and provide services to us, such as website hosting, authentication, cloud storage and database management, analytics, e-mail delivery, payment processing, customer service, and billing operations. We share information with these providers only as needed for them to perform these services for us and for you.
We may also share usage and log information, including IP address and device or browser data, with analytics providers that help us measure site performance, understand usage trends, and improve the Service.
We may also disclose personal and non-personal information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate in order to respond to claims, legal process (including subpoenas), to protect our rights and interests or those of a third party, the safety of the public or any person, to prevent or stop any illegal, unethical, or legally actionable activity, or to otherwise comply with applicable court orders, laws, rules and regulations.
SHIFT LLC collects personal information that you submit to us through the website, support interactions, account sign-in flows, checkout flows, and optional cloud features. We may also receive personal information about you from third parties as described above.
By submitting your email address on this website, you agree that we may use it to send verification codes, account and billing messages, support replies, product notices related to your use of the Service, and other essential service communications. If we send optional marketing emails in the future, we will provide a way to unsubscribe from those messages.
We keep your information only so long as we need it to provide Python Playground to you and fulfill the purposes described in this policy. This is also the case for anyone that we share your information with and who carries out services on our behalf. When we no longer need to use your information and there is no need for us to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we'll either remove it from our systems or depersonalize it so that we can't identify you.
We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you place an order or enter, submit, or access your personal information. We offer the use of a secure server. All supplied sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our Payment gateway providers database only to be accessible by those authorized with special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. After a transaction, your private information (credit cards, social security numbers, financials, etc.) is never kept on file. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the absolute security of any information you transmit to SHIFT LLC or guarantee that your information on the Service may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by a breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.
Information collected via our website, through direct interactions with you, or from use of our help services may be transferred from time to time to our offices or personnel, or to third parties, located throughout the world, and may be viewed and hosted anywhere in the world, including countries that may not have laws of general applicability regulating the use and transfer of such data. To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, by using any of the above, you voluntarily consent to the trans-border transfer and hosting of such information.
We take precautions to protect the security of your information. We have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to help safeguard, prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use your information. However, neither people nor security systems are foolproof, including encryption systems. In addition, people can commit intentional crimes, make mistakes or fail to follow policies. Therefore, while we use reasonable efforts to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If applicable law imposes any non-disclaimable duty to protect your personal information, you agree that intentional misconduct will be the standards used to measure our compliance with that duty.
The rights you have to request updates or corrections to the information SHIFT LLC collects depend on your relationship with SHIFT LLC and applicable law.
Customers have the right to request the restriction of certain uses and disclosures of personally identifiable information as follows. You can contact us in order to (1) update or correct your personally identifiable information, (2) change your preferences with respect to communications and other information you receive from us, or (3) delete the personally identifiable information maintained about you on our systems, including account and synced cloud data where applicable. Such updates, corrections, changes and deletions will have no effect on information already provided to third parties in accordance with this Privacy Policy before such update, correction, change or deletion. To protect your privacy and security, we may take reasonable steps to verify your identity before making corrections or deletions.
You should be aware that it is not technologically possible to remove each and every record of the information you have provided to us from our system. The need to back up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss means that a copy of your information may exist in a non-erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for us to locate. Promptly after receiving your request, all personal information stored in databases we actively use, and other readily searchable media will be updated, corrected, changed or deleted, as appropriate, as soon as and to the extent reasonably and technically practicable.
If you use Python Playground without cloud features, some files and settings may be stored only in your browser and can also be removed by clearing your browser storage.
We reserve the right to transfer information to a third party in the event of a sale, merger or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of SHIFT LLC or any of its Corporate Affiliates, or that portion of SHIFT LLC or any of its Corporate Affiliates to which the Service relates, or in the event that we discontinue our business or file a petition or have filed against us a petition in bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
We may disclose information (including personal information) about you to our Corporate Affiliates. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, "Corporate Affiliate" means any person or entity which directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with SHIFT LLC, whether by ownership or otherwise. Any information relating to you that we provide to our Corporate Affiliates will be treated by those Corporate Affiliates in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.
By using Python Playground or contacting us directly, you signify your acceptance of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, you should not engage with our website, or use our services. Continued use of the website, direct engagement with us, or following the posting of changes to this Privacy Policy that do not significantly affect the use or disclosure of your personal information will mean that you accept those changes.
We've updated our Privacy Policy to provide you with complete transparency into what is being set when you visit our site and how it's being used. By using our website, registering an account, or making a purchase, you hereby consent to our Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.
This Privacy Policy applies only to the Services. The Services may contain links to other websites not operated or controlled by SHIFT LLC. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy or opinions expressed in such websites, and such websites are not investigated, monitored or checked for accuracy or completeness by us. Please remember that when you use a link to go from the Services to another website, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other website, including those that have a link on our platform, is subject to that website's own rules and policies. Such third parties may use their own cookies or other methods to collect information about you.
SHIFT LLC uses cookies and similar browser technologies to support analytics, remember limited preferences or state, and help account, checkout, and cloud features function correctly. Most web browsers can be set to disable cookies, but if you disable them, some website, account, checkout, or Pro cloud functionality may not work correctly. We never place full payment card details in cookies.
Wherever you're located you may also set your browser to block cookies and similar technologies, but this action may prevent parts of the website from functioning properly, and you may not be able to fully utilize all of its features and services. You should also be aware that you may lose saved information such as site preferences or temporary account and billing state. Different browsers make different controls available to you. Disabling a cookie or category of cookie does not delete the cookie from your browser, so you may need to do this yourself from within your browser.
We use analytics services to understand website traffic, usage patterns, and performance.
In respect to any credit card or other payment processing details you have provided us, we commit that this confidential information will be stored in the most secure manner possible.
We do not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If You are a parent or guardian and You are aware that Your child has provided Us with Personal Data, please contact Us. If We become aware that We have collected Personal Data from anyone under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, We take steps to remove that information from Our servers.
We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our services, policies, or legal requirements. The updated Privacy Policy will be posted with the revised effective date, which will indicate when the changes take effect. By continuing to use our services after the effective date, you agree to the updated Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the changes, you must stop using the services and, if applicable, delete your account.
We may display, include or make available third-party content (including data, information, applications and other products services) or provide links to third-party websites or services ("Third-Party Services").
You acknowledge and agree that SHIFT LLC shall not be responsible for any Third-Party Services, including their accuracy, completeness, timeliness, validity, copyright compliance, legality, decency, quality or any other aspect thereof. SHIFT LLC does not assume and shall not have any liability or responsibility to you or any other person or entity for any Third-Party Services.
Third-Party Services and links thereto are provided solely as a convenience to you and you access and use them entirely at your own risk and subject to such third parties' terms and conditions.
Python Playground uses browser storage and analytics tools to support functionality and understand how the website is used.
We may be collecting and using information from you if you are from the European Economic Area (EEA), and in this section of our Privacy Policy we are going to explain exactly how and why is this data collected, and how we maintain this data under protection from being replicated or used in the wrong way.
What is GDPR? GDPR is an EU-wide privacy and data protection law that regulates how EU residents' data is protected by companies and enhances the control the EU residents have, over their personal data. The GDPR is relevant to any globally operating company and not just the EU-based businesses and EU residents. Our customers' data is important irrespective of where they are located, which is why we have implemented GDPR controls as our baseline standard for all our operations worldwide.
What is personal data? Any data that relates to an identifiable or identified individual. GDPR covers a broad spectrum of information that could be used on its own, or in combination with other pieces of information, to identify a person. Personal data extends beyond a person's name or email address. Some examples include financial information, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP addresses, physical address, sexual orientation, and ethnicity.
The Data Protection Principles include requirements such as: Personal data collected must be processed in a fair, legal, and transparent way and should only be used in a way that a person would reasonably expect. Personal data should only be collected to fulfil a specific purpose and it should only be used for that purpose. Organizations must specify why they need the personal data when they collect it. Personal data should be held no longer than necessary to fulfil its purpose. People covered by the GDPR have the right to access their own personal data. They can also request a copy of their data, and that their data be updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another organization.
Why is GDPR important? GDPR adds some new requirements regarding how companies should protect individuals' personal data that they collect and process. It also raises the stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement and imposing greater fines for breach. Beyond these facts it's simply the right thing to do. At SHIFT LLC we strongly believe that your data privacy is very important and we already have solid security and privacy practices in place that go beyond the requirements of this new regulation.
We are committed to helping our customers meet the data subject rights requirements of GDPR. SHIFT LLC processes or stores all personal data in fully vetted, DPA compliant vendors. We do store all conversation and personal data for up to 6 years unless your account is deleted. In which case, we dispose of all data in accordance with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, but we will not hold it longer than 60 days.
Our customer support team is here to answer questions about accessing, updating, retrieving, or removing personal data associated with your Python Playground account or synced cloud data.
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) requires us to disclose categories of Personal Information we collect and how we use it, the categories of sources from whom we collect Personal Information, and the third parties with whom we share it, which we have explained above.
We are also required to communicate information about rights California residents have under California law. You may exercise the following rights:
If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us. We do not sell the Personal Information of our users.
