Therefore, we have made it a critical focus to protect the confidentiality and security of the personal information you provide us.
b. This Privacy Policy discloses the privacy practices of Panorama Consulting Group, a Colorado limited liability company and its affiliates and subsidiaries, (collectively “Panorama”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or “Company”) and governs the use of this website, or other Company products and services (collectively, the “Services”) by users of the Services (“you” or “your”).
c. We have created this Privacy Policy to inform you about what information we collect, how we use and share your information, and our privacy practices.
2.0 The Information We Collect
a. We or our preferred partners/vendors may collect two types of information: Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) and Non-Personally Identifiable Information (“Non-PII).
b. PII – PII is information that identifies a specific user of the Services and is provided by the user.
c. When you engage in certain activities on the Services, such as when you register to use the Services, you may be asked to provide certain information about yourself that we will collect and store. This information may include, but is not limited to: first and last name, physical address, email address, phone number and other information specific to the product you have expressed interest in.
d. Depending on what activity you are engaged in, some of the information that may be requested will be identified as mandatory or as voluntary.
e. If you do not wish to provide the mandatory information for a particular activity, you will not be permitted to engage in that activity.
f. You do not have to engage in the activities in which we ask you to provide such information. But if you choose to do so, additional information may be requested, such as your first and last name, gender, email address or date of birth.
g. We log Internet protocol (IP) server addresses for system administration purposes and catalog traffic patterns through the Sites. This information may or may not be linked to a consumer’s personal information at our discretion.
h. Non-PII: Non-PII is information that identifies your computer and its navigational patterns through the Services (but not a specific user).
i. We may automatically collect Non-PII information when you visit the Services, through the use of a variety of tools including cookies (small text files that are stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes and which contain information about that user’s computer), or other available data analysis or collection technologies.
3.0 How We Use and Share Information
a. We use the information we collect to (a) provide, maintain, and protect the Services; (b) notify you of promotions, special events, new services and special offers, for example, through e-mails; (c) tailor our product offerings, customer service and overall experience; (d) improve the content, operation, appearance and utility of the Services; (e) conduct surveys, research and evaluations; (f) troubleshoot and resolve disputes; (g) gather demographic data and (h) accomplish other administrative tasks.
b. Cookies: Cookies are small bits of code, usually stored on a user’s computer hard drive, which enable a Website to “personalize” itself for each user. Cookies allows us to identify files on your computer and record your preferences and other data about your visit to our website so that when you return to the website we are aware of who you are and can help personalize your next visit here. Please note that cookies may be linked to personal information about you. The use of cookies allows us to keep track of your information and prevents you from having to reenter your information at each connection. Potential consumer tracking data collected by us is used to optimize your experience by delivering targeted advertising (or allow third parties to deliver targeted advertising) on our website and the websites of our preferred partners/vendors. If you wish to disable cookies, you may do so on your computer or other devices. PLEASE NOTE: Often times, if cookies settings are changed or disabled, you may experience site features that don’t function properly, limiting your personalized experience.
c. Cross-Device Advertising and Tracking: Panorama may collect and use the above mentioned data for cross-device advertising purposes. This process allows consumers to experience a personalized, informative advertisement that targets specific product interests over multiple devices. The information may also be used for analytics, and reporting purposes such as an advertisement effectiveness and overall campaign success.
Panorama may implement cross device advertising and tracking through two methods:
- We may use a deterministic approach which may identify and track consumers across devices through identifying characteristics such as a consumer login account. This information may also be used to connect data across different devices.
- We may also use a probabilistic method which may identify and track consumers through an IP address and the utilization of cookies. This information may also be used to connect data across different devices. These methods allow information about your use of websites or applications on your browser or device to be combined and used with information from your other browsers or devices, i.e. your tablet and cell phone. This enables delivery of advertisements or informational data to your multiple devices.
d. Push Notifications/Alerts: We may use push notifications and alerts to notify you of services and/or products that you have expressed interest in on multiple devices. If you no longer wish to receive these types of communications, you may turn them off at the device level. To ensure you receive proper notifications, we may need to collect certain information about your device such as operating system and user identification information. You may opt-out of push notifications or alerts through your browser settings.
e. Third Parties: When you register with the Sites, you explicitly authorize us to share your information with our preferred partners/vendors so that they may contact you via email, SMS, telephone and/or direct mail. Specifically, at registration you agree to receive autodialed or prerecorded calls (including to mobile numbers) and texts and emails from Panorama and its affiliates, partners, and vendors to the phone numbers (including mobile numbers) and email addresses you provide to Panorama today or in the future and to any phone numbers or email addresses subsequently associated with you by Panorama or its affiliates or marketing partners, affiliates or vendors. You understand and agree that your consent is not a condition, directly or indirectly of a purchase. Your information, including your PII, may be sold to preferred partners/vendors. We may also sell your information, including your PII to other affiliated companies, and with other trusted vendors and business partners. Some business partners include companies who provide business services to us or on our behalf, such as to market products or services to you, monitor Services activity, help to maintain our customer database, and administer e-mails, surveys or other contests.

Opt-Out: If you decide that you are no longer interested in receiving SMS or email communications from us, you may follow the instructions in our SMS or emails to unsubscribe from our email list or by emailing us at: legal@panorama-consulting.com.

g. Legal Compliance/Other Information Disclosure: We also reserve the right to disclose your information in good faith as required by law, in response to legal process including law enforcement requests, and with any person or entity that may acquire all or any part of our business or assets, in connection with any change in control of us, and where needed to prevent fraud and to protect the safety, property, or legal rights of users of the Services or our affiliates. We may also disclose your information to manage and protect our information technology infrastructure and security. We may also disclose your information for any other purpose with your consent.

11.0 ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
BY ACCESSING AND/OR USING ANY PANORAMA WEBSITES OR SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. DO NOT USE PANORAMA SERVICES OR SUBMIT ANY CONTACT INFORMATION IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS.
THIS AGREEMENT IS BINDING TO ARBITRATE ALL CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND PANORAMA WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION.
THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND PANORAMA WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND NOT IN COURT OR BY JURY TRIAL. IF A DISPUTE IS ARBITRATED, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST PANORAMA INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS.
Review this section carefully. This arbitration provision limits your and Panorama’s ability to litigate claims in court and you and Panorama each agree to waive your respective rights to a jury trial or a state or federal judge. You agree that you will not file any lawsuit against us in any state or federal court.
We strive to never have a dispute, but if we do, you and we agree to try for 60 days to resolve it informally.
If no resolution results from this informal process, you and we agree to binding individual arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and not to sue in court in front of a judge or jury. As an alternative, a neutral arbitrator will decide and the arbitrator’s decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the FAA. Class action lawsuits, class wide arbitrations, private attorney-general actions, and any other proceeding where someone acts in a representative capacity aren’t allowed. Nor is combining individual proceedings without the consent of all parties.
You agree that the Arbitrator will have sole and exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute you have with us. The Federal Arbitration Act allows for the enforcement of arbitration agreements and governs the interpretation and enforcement of the agreement to arbitrate.
If any provision of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
No waiver of any provision of this Arbitration Agreement will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Panorama.

c. Your continued use of the Services after the effectiveness of such revisions will constitute your acknowledgment and acceptance of the terms of the revised Privacy Policy.
d. If a change would authorize the use of your PII for a new or materially different purpose, then we will send you an email notification. It is your responsibility to ensure that we have a current, working email address on file for you.
