Privacy Policy
Effective as of September 1, 2022.
Modern Moments, LLC and its subsidiaries, ("Modern Moments," " we," "us," or "our") respect your privacy. We may refer to you as "you," or "your." We provide services for users to create, manage, and monetize podcasts. In this Privacy Policy (“Policy”), “personal information” means any information related to an identified or identifiable individual, and does not include data whereby personally identifiable information has been removed (such as anonymous data). The purpose of this Policy is to inform you about the personal information we collect, use, and share in the context of our website at https://modernmoments.com and related subdomains (“Website”) and the podcast services in connection with our customer, partner, reseller, and vendor relationships (together with the Website, the “Services”), and the ways in which you can control how we use and share that information.
When you access our Website, Modern Moments is the entity responsible for the processing of your information and, for the purposes of European and UK data protection laws, the “data controller” of your personal information. In the EU and the UK, where we have an arrangement in place with a company who is redirecting you to access podcasts through our Services, we in some circumstances obtain and process your personal information on behalf of and at the instructions of such a customer as a processor. This Policy does not apply to other companies' or organizations' sites or to companies we do not own or control. It does not cover how companies who are our customers may treat your personal information outside of the Services, as the use of your personal information by such parties is governed by the privacy policies of such parties and is not subject to our control. We encourage you to read their privacy policies.
