Collection of Your Information.

When you register, subscribe or use our website features, we collect two main types of data to help us better serve you: 

  • Optional and Voluntary Data. Provided by you through a questionaire, poll, survey or some form of specific request for a Power Adulting service including but not limited to podcasting, coaching, interviewing, newsletter, eBook, membership, mentor matching or referring a friend. Personally identifiable information (like last name, email address, contact information, financial details, etc.) shall at all times remain on a strictly confidential, need-to-know, basis while non-identifiable data such as (first name, occupation, religion, etc.) allows us to get to know you better and is also available for you to build into your public profile page.
  • Automatic, Involuntary and Non-identifiable Information. Received through Internet technology such as log files, cookies and web beacons which track your interests and preferences so we can better personalize your online experience. 

Optional/voluntary data listed above in the first bullet helps us enhance security, build your personality profile, match you with likeminded individuals and provide you with useful content. Automatic/involuntary information described previously in the second scenario interprets website traffic and increases the level of your privacy by aggregating all information so it is not correlated with any particular user. 

How and why we gather these types of important information is described below: 

Optional Information:
  • Registration. We require a valid email address to post on our public forum and additional contact information to obtain deeper connection and communication privileges.
  • Refering Friends. There are two types of referrals. First, refer a friend to the site. Second, forward a link, page, document or article to a friend. In either case, we may make an initial contact with your friends and an occasional polite reminder but we will not conduct repetitive campaigns to solicit friends identified by you.
  • Questionnaires. Your interests and attributes are foundational to the Power Adulting proprietary systems and thereby critical to our success as a community. Individual responses to personally identifiable information shall be confidential. Non-identifiable data may, at your discretion, be used for various reasons including but not limited to building a profile page for members to view.
  • Interactive Opinion Polls. Responses are securely aggregated to not be identifiable; but may be “tagged” so you can only vote once.
  • Improvement Surveys. Specific information is not shared, but aggregated demographic data will be shared with our third party partners in quantifying advertising results. 
  • Contact Information. We require an email address to register and additional contact information to upgrade, but you may also opt-out of any direct marketing contact. (See details below.) Power Adulting also provides a Customer Care team to guide and support your personal development through email and phone follow-up. To do this they need your contact data but if you prefer not to receive this help, you may also opt-out of our Customer Care follow-up. (See below for – Limitation on your Information.) As a courtesy we also fully comply with the U.S. CAN-SPAM Act. 

Please note: Personally identifiable information is treated with utmost care.   

Automatic Information:
  • Login Files. This tool gathers IP addresses, ISP’s and browser information such as time stamps, reference pages and click statistics. It helps administer the overall website by guarding against fraud, analyzing trends, determining usage, tracking user movement and gathering broad demographic information. Log files are not linked to any personally identifiable information and are not shared externally.  
  • Cookies. This text file helps you personalize your online experience by allowing us to save your preferences and track trends in addition to differentiating new and repeat visits. Your cookie contains no personally identifiable information unless you supply it yourself, but advertisers often use them to track click rates and the impact of ads. Cookies may be turned off in your browser but be aware that this may result in some loss of the seamless service provided on our Site.   
  • Web Beacons. Web beacons are a tiny, transparent, graphic image file usually used with cookies by advertisers to monitor your journey around a website or collection of sites. Again, for your protection, no personally identifiable information you provide to Power Adulting shall be linked to a web beacon or cookie for third party use. 
  • Third Party Technology. Advertisements and third party links found on poweradulting.com integrate the above mentioned web practices to automatically receive your IP address and send ads directly to your browser. Additional tools such as javascript, DoubleClick DART cookies or other technologies may also be used to measure results and/or personalize the content you see on the site.
  • Advertising Partners. Ad servers and various networks, including but not limited to Google, may use a variety of cookies and web beacons on our site. DART cookies, in particular, enable Google and others to generate ads based on a visitor’s activity at poweradulting.com and other sites on the Internet.
