When we do so, (1) we acknowledge in our correspondence how the recipient was added to our list and (2) we provide a means for recipients to opt out of further communications from us. When you contact Monnit we may keep a record of that correspondence and may occasionally ask you to complete surveys for sales and research purposes.

We seek to provide any such third parties with only the information they need to perform their specific function and we require them to protect your Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Statement and Consent.

By voluntarily providing us with your Personal Data, you are consenting to our use of it in accordance with this Privacy Statement and Consent. Due to the nature of the Internet if you are visiting this Site from a country other than the United States, your communications will inevitably result in the transfer of information across international boundaries. By visiting this web site, you consent to these transfers. If you provide Personal Data to this Site, you acknowledge and agree that such Personal Data may be transferred from your current location to the offices and servers of Monnit and the affiliates, agents and service providers referred to herein located in the United States and in other countries.
You can use this Site without providing your Personal Data, although doing so may limit your ability to obtain certain information or to use other valuable Monnit Services, including, for example, informational newsletters and responses to specific inquiries you may have. Where no Personal Data is legally required or is necessary for a particular service (for example, to contact you in response to your request), the use of a pseudonym is accepted.
We keep your Personal Data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with any applicable legal reporting or document retention requirements. We will take reasonable steps to update, correct or, upon your request, delete your Personal Data in our possession that you have previously submitted via this Site.

Access. Monnit permits a reasonable right of access and review of Personal Data held by Monnit by the individual to whom the Personal Data relates; however, to guard against fraudulent requests for access, Monnit will require information which it determines is sufficient to allow it to confirm the identity of the person making the request before granting access or making corrections. Monnit will endeavor to provide the information in question within a reasonable time and may charge an appropriate cost (e.g. photocopying, mail charges) to the individual making the request. Monnit reserves the right not to change any Personal Data but will append alternative text the individual concerned believes is appropriate.
In addition, in certain circumstances, Monnit may decline to provide access to Personal Data, including where Monnit determines that the information requested:
(a) May disclose:
a. The Personal Data of another individual or of a deceased individual; or
b. Trade secrets or other business confidential information;
(b) Is subject to attorney-client or litigation privilege or a professional privilege or obligation;
(c) Does not exist, is not held, or cannot be found by Monnit;
(d) Could reasonably result in serious harm to the treatment or recovery of the individual concerned, serious emotional harm to the individual or another individual, or serious bodily harm to another individual; or
(e) May harm or interfere with law enforcement activities or other investigative or regulatory functions of a body authorized by statute to perform such functions.
Please note that although after receiving a request to update, correct or delete information, we will make reasonable efforts to effect such a change promptly, it is not always possible to complete the process before another communication is distributed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Even if you have requested removal of your Personal Data from our lists, Monnit reserves the right to retain it in our files in some limited circumstances such as when such Personal Data may be necessary to honor your request to opt out of further communications, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems or as provided in our Terms and Conditions. If Monnit is required to retain any portion of the Personal Data for such purposes, Monnit shall use reasonable efforts to limit such Personal Data to what is necessary to accomplish the particular purpose. Further, you acknowledge that due to technical constraints and the fact that we back up our systems, Personal Data may continue to reside in our systems even after deletion. Therefore, you should not expect that your Personal Data will be completely removed from our systems in response to your request.
Monnit will not respond to repetitious or vexatious requests for access. In determining whether a request is repetitious or vexatious, it will consider such factors as the frequency with which information is updated, the purpose for which the information is used, and the nature of the information.
Monnit uses the Personal Data you provide for our business purposes in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Statement and Consent.
If at any time you wish not to receive any future communications or to have your name deleted from our mailing lists, you may follow the "unsubscribe" procedure included with our communication. In addition, you may e-mail us at privacy@monnit.com. See How to Contact Monnit below.
Monnit considers your information to be a vital part of our relationship with you. Monnit will share information including Personal Data with its subsidiaries and affiliates that have also agreed to be bound by this Privacy Statement and Consent. In addition, Monnit, like many businesses, sometimes hires other companies to perform certain business-related functions. Examples include mailing information, maintaining databases and processing payments. When we retain another non-affiliated company to perform a function of this nature, we seek to provide them with only the information that they need to perform their specific functions, and we require them to protect your Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Statement and Consent and Monnit 's restrictions.
In addition, if you input Personal Data on a co-branded registration page, relating, for example, to a contest co-sponsored by both Monnit and a partner company, then your Personal Data will be available both to Monnit and to such partner company. While Monnit will only use such Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Statement and Consent, such partner company's use of your Personal Data will be subject to the privacy policy of that company and Monnit cannot be responsible for their use of your information. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of such partner company before providing information on any such co-sponsored page or promotion.
