YouTube Automation Mastery, and www.officialtycoonacademy.com (“YouTube Automation Mastery”
www.officialtycoonacademy.com, “us,” “we,” or “our”) thanks you for visiting the online and mobile
resources we publish. We use the words “you” and “your” to mean you, the reader, and other visitors to
our online and mobile resources who are, in all cases, over the age of 13. Our privacy statement (“this
statement,” “this privacy statement,” and “our statement”) informs you about from whom and the types of
personal information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with and why, and what we do to try to
protect it. Online and mobile resources mean the websites and other internet features we own that allow
you to interact with our websites, as well apps we’ve created and distributed to let our customers and
followers view our online and mobile resources or otherwise interact with the content we provide.
Who We Collect Personal Information From
We may collect personal information from the following groups of data subjects: visitors to, and users of,
our online and mobile resources; our customers; current members of our workforce and those who apply
for posted jobs; and third-party vendors and business partners. Personal information generally means
information that can be used to identify you or that can be easily linked to you (for example, your name,
address, telephone number, email address, national insurance number and date of birth). The privacy
laws in some jurisdictions include unique elements in what they consider to be the personal information
of the consumers or data subjects they protect. If those laws apply to us, as in the case of the UK General
Data Protection Regulation (“UK-GDPR”), our use of the phrase “personal information” includes the unique
elements required by such laws. The categories of information we collect from each of these groups, and
the ways in which we use it, differs. As you may have noticed, it’s possible that the same person could fall
into more than one group. Most of this statement addresses our processing and sharing of personal
information collected from visitors to and users of our online and mobile resources and our customers.
Nonetheless, we collect and retain the types of professional or employment related personal information
you would expect an employer to have about its existing and former workforce and new job applicants.
We provide legally required notices of collection and describe our use and sharing of the personal
information of our workforce and applicants in greater detail in confidential internal human resource
manuals and documents accessible to members of our workforce, or by publication on the proprietary
workforce/applicant portals and apps we operate. In some cases, such portals and apps may be operated
by third parties who transfer the personal information to us. In those situations, the legal responsibility to
provide notice usually rests with the third party, not us. In addition, like all corporate enterprises, we buy
goods and services, lease equipment and office space and attend industry events. In doing so, we interact
with many existing and potential vendors and business partners from whom we necessarily collect certain
personal information in connection with our contractual and business relationships. As with our
customers, this information is typically limited to minimum business contact information. We use and
share personal information collected from our vendors and business partners to manage, administer, and
perform under our contracts with them, or share information about our products. We describe our use of
vendor and business partner personal information in greater detail in our confidential contracts with
those parties or on the internal vendor management portals we operate.
What We Collect
There are two types of information that we obtain from you online and then store and use: (i) non-
personal information that’s collected automatically from each visitor, such as your device operating
system; and (ii) personal information that you voluntarily provide to us or that is collected automatically.
By using our online and mobile resources or purchasing our products or services, you are signifying to us
that you agree with this section of our privacy statement and that we may use and disclose your
information as described.
Voluntarily Submitted Information. If you participate in certain activities via our online and mobile
resources, you may be asked to provide us with information about yourself. The types of personal
information we collect in those situations includes identifiers (such as your name, email address, physical
address, and phone number), professional information (such as the business you are in), and financial
account information (such as your credit card information). We do not sell, rent, or trade voluntarily
submitted personal information with third parties. If you don’t want us to collect this type of personal
information, please don’t provide it. This means you shouldn’t participate in the activities on our online
and mobile resources that request or require it and you may want to communicate with us by phone or
regular mail instead. Participation is strictly your choice. Not participating may limit your ability to take
full advantage of the online and mobile resources, but it will not affect your ability to access certain
information available to the general public on the online and mobile resources.
Some of the ways you voluntarily give us your personal information and how we use it:
Emails and Online Forms
When you send us an email or fill out an online form, such as to contact us, your email address and any
other personal information (e.g., home address or phone number) that may be in the content of your
message or attached to it, are retained by us and used to respond back directly to you and to process your
request. Depending on the personal information provided, communications from us may be in the form of
emails, telephone calls, and/or text messages. We may also send you information about any of our
products or services we think may be of interest to you.
Registering for an Account
When you register for an account or you register your child for a sub-account, you submit personal
information to us such as your name and email address (or your child’s name and email address) which
we then retain. We use that information to create and manage your account and, in some cases, establish
a password and profile to communicate with you and any sub-accounts you created via email.
Registering for Events
When you register for services, webinars, events, conferences, or programs we ourselves may host (rather
than outsource to a third-party event manager with its own privacy policies), you will be submitting the
types of identifiers described above. If the event requires a fee, we may also ask you to submit credit card
or other financial information. We use this information to register you for the event and send you
communications regarding the event.
Becoming a Subscriber to Our Service
We use any information provided from our customers to perform our contractual obligations and provide
the products and services purchased to them, to manage their accounts and communicate with them.
Social Media and Community Features
Some of our online and mobile resources may offer social media-like community features letting users
post messages and comments, and/or upload an image or other files and materials. If you choose to make
use of these features, the information you post, including your screen name and any other personal
information, will be in the public domain and not covered/protected by this statement.
Automatically Collected Information. When you visit our online and mobile resources, basic information
is passively collected through your web browser via use of tracking technologies, such as a “cookie” which
is a small text file that is downloaded onto your computer or mobile device when you access the online
and mobile resources. It allows us to recognize your computer or mobile device and store some
information about your preferences or past actions.
We allow third party vendors to use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your
browsing activities over time following your use of the site. For example, we use Google Analytics, a web
analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google“). Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how
you use the online and mobile resources and enhance your experience when you visit the online and
mobile resources. For more information on how Google uses this data, go to
www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. You can learn more about how to opt out of Google Analytics
by going to
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
The internet activity information collected through cookies and other similar means includes such things
as: the domain name and IP address from which you accessed our online and mobile resources; the type
of browser and operating system you use; the date and time and length of your visit; the specific page
visited, graphics viewed and any documents downloaded; the specific links to other sites you accessed
from our online and mobile resources; and the specific links from other sites you used to access our online
and mobile resources.
Additionally, if you access our online and mobile resources from a phone or other mobile device, the
mobile services provider may transmit to us uniquely identifiable mobile device information which allows
us to then collect mobile phone numbers and associate them with the mobile device identification
information. Some mobile phone vendors also operate systems that pinpoint the physical location of
devices and we may receive this information as well if location services are enabled on your device. If you
do not want us to collect and use geolocation data, disable location services through your device settings.
Regardless, we use both automatically collected information and mobile device information to compile
generic reports about popular pages on our online and mobile resources, and to see how our customers
and followers are accessing our online and mobile resources. We then use that data to administer the
online and mobile resources and make them better, make your activities more convenient and efficient
and to enhance the functionality of our online and mobile resources, such as by remembering certain of
your information in order to save you time. We use and retain your personal information in accordance
with applicable law and as long as necessary to carry out the purposes described above in accordance
with our internal data retention procedures.
User Beware: External Sites, Apps, Links and Social Media.
We maintain a presence on one or more external social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook,
YouTube and LinkedIn. We may further allow features of our online and mobile resources to connect
with, or be viewable from, that external social media presence. Similarly, our online and mobile resources
may contain links to other websites or apps controlled by third parties. We are not responsible for either
the content on, or the privacy practices of, social media platforms, or any third-party sites or apps to
which we link. Those apps, sites and platforms are not controlled by us and therefore have their own
privacy policies and terms of use. If you have questions about how those apps, sites and platforms collect
and use personal information, you should carefully read their privacy policies and contact them using the
information they provide.
When/With Whom Do We Share Personal Information
We use non-personal information to administer our online and mobile resources, make them better, and
to make business decisions about what programs our customers might like.
We use voluntarily provided personal information to respond to your inquiries and provide you with the
services you have requested, amongst other uses as further described below. We do not sell or rent your
personal information to third party data vendors or marketing companies. As you might expect, we
disclose your information when required by law.
Affiliates.
In addition to those third parties set forth above, we may share your information, including personal
information, within our family of companies including but not limited to YouTube Automation Mastery.
Those companies will use such information in generally the same manner as we do under this privacy
statement which includes sending you information about their products, services, or initiatives that may
be of interest to you.
Legally Compelled Disclosures. We may disclose your information, including personal information, to
government authorities, and to other third parties when compelled to do so by such government
authorities, or at our discretion or otherwise as required or permitted by law, including but not limited to
responding to court orders and subpoenas.
To Prevent Harm.
We may disclose your information, including personal information, when we have reason to believe that
someone is causing injury to or interference with our rights or property, other users of the online and
mobile resources, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities.
Business Transfer.
If we or any of our affiliates, or substantially all of its or their assets, are acquired by one or more third
parties as a result of an acquisition, merger, sale, reorganization, consolidation, or liquidation, personal
information may be one of the transferred assets.
Vendors and Business Partners.
We may share your information, including personal information, with our vendors and other third parties
with whom we have a contractual relationship. We may also share your information, including personal
information, with vendors who provide third party software services that you have chosen to assist you
with your sales funnels. We do our best to disclose only the information each of those parties need.
We have adopted standards for those vendors and business partners who receive personal information
from us. We attempt to bind such vendors and business partners to those standards via written contracts.
We further attempt to contractually restrict what our vendors and business partners can do with the
personal information we provide to them such that it is used only to the extent necessary to carry out the
business purpose for which it was provided; is not disclosed to anyone else without our consent or under
our instruction; remains, as between us and the applicable vendor or business partner, our property; and
is not transferred out of the United Kingdom without our consent.
Please note, however, that we cannot guarantee that all of our vendors and business partners will agree to
these contractual requirements; nor can we ensure that, even when they do agree, they will always fully
comply.
Your Rights And Options
You do not have to provide personal information to enjoy most of the features of our online and mobile
resources. Moreover, you can opt out of certain activities like newsletters and announcements. Residents
of the UK and data subjects whose personal information was obtained while they were in the GDPR
Jurisdictions have certain additional rights.
If we are using personal information you provided to us in order to enable us to send you materials, such
as newsletters or product alerts via text or email, and you decide you don’t want to receive such materials,
you may opt out by following the opt-out instructions in the email or other communication (e.g., by
responding to the text with “STOP”), or by contacting us using the contact information below. When we
receive your request, we will take reasonable steps to remove your name from our distribution lists. You
need to understand it may take a period to remove your name from our lists after your request and due to
such latency, you may still receive materials for a period of time after you opt out. In addition to opting
out, you have the ability to access, amend, and delete your personal information by contacting us using
the contact information below.
Some browsers have a “do not track” feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your
online activities tracked. At this time, we do not specifically respond to browser “do not track” signals.
Children’s Privacy
Federal law imposes special restrictions and obligations on commercial website operators who direct their
operations toward, and collect and use information from, children under the age of 13. We take those age-
related requirements very seriously, and consistent with it do not intend for our online and mobile
resources to be used by children under the age of 13 without first obtaining the verifiable consent of such
child’s parent or legal guardian. Moreover, we do not knowingly collect personal information from minors
under the age of 13, only a parent or legal guardian may provide such information after adhering to our
verification process for submitting such information via the online and mobile resources. If we become
aware that anyone under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to our online and mobile
resources, we will delete that information and will not use it for any purpose whatsoever. If you believe
that someone under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to our online and mobile resources,
please contact us at support@ytautomationmastery.com. We encourage parents and legal guardians to
talk with their children about the potential risks of providing personal information over the Internet.
How We Protect Collected Personal Information
We will take all reasonable security precautions to protect your personal information provided to our
online and mobile resources. We have adopted a security program that includes technical, organizational,
administrative, and other security measures designed to protect, in a manner consistent with accepted
industry standards and applicable law, against anticipated or actual threats to the security of personal
information (the “Security Program”). We cannot, however, guarantee that your information, whether
during transmission or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, will be free from
unauthorized access or that loss, misuse, destruction, or alteration will not occur. Except for our duty to
maintain the Security Program under applicable law, we disclaim any other liability for any such theft or
loss of, unauthorized access or damage to, or interception of any data or communications including
personal information. We have every reason to believe our Security Program is reasonable and
appropriate for our business and the nature of foreseeable risks to the personal information we collect.
We further periodically review and update our Security Program, including as required by applicable law.
Nonetheless, as part of our Security Program, we have specific incident response and management
procedures that are activated whenever we become aware that your personal information was likely to
have been compromised. We further require, as part of our vendor and business partner oversight
procedures, that such parties notify us immediately if they have any reason to believe that an incident
adversely affecting personal information, we provided to them has occurred.
The Uk General Data Protection Regulation
We do collect or otherwise obtain personal information from data subjects located in the UK. We fulfill our
UK GDPR obligations with respect to our workforce/job applicants, our customers (and their own end-
clients), and our vendors and business partners through a series of separate notices, contracts or other
terms provided to them at the time, and in the manner and form, UK GDPR and local law within the UK
requires.
We describe, in the immediately following section of this statement, how we comply with the UK GDPR for
personal information collected from visitors to and users of our online and mobile resources while they
were in the UK. Thus, for purposes of that section, the words “you” and “your” mean only such UK-based
visitors and users.
What do we collect from you in the UK and how do we use it?
We collect from you the categories of personal information already described. The lawful basis on which
we rely for such collection, later use and disclosure, is what the UK GDPR refers to as legitimate interest.
As stated elsewhere in this statement, we do not sell any of your personal information to third parties nor
do we use it for automated decision making.
Cross-border Data Transfers and Third-Party Processors
If we transfer personal information from the UK to a location that has not been deemed by the European
Commission to have adequate privacy protections, we do so in the manner the UK GDPR permits.
Rights of Data Subjects in the UK
While we attempt to allow all visitors and users of our online and mobile resources to exercise a degree of
control over their personal information, under the UK GDPR we have a legal obligation to do so for you.
More specifically, with respect to personal information collected from you while you were in the UK, you
have these rights: transparency, access, correction and deletion, portability, who, what, why and where,
and restriction/objection (for more information click here) . If you would like to exercise any of these
rights, please contact support@ytautomationmastery.com. Your ability to exercise these rights is subject to
certain conditions and exemptions that you can read about in Articles 12 through 23 of the UK GDPR.
Among those conditions is our right to decline part or all of a request if we cannot satisfy our reasonable
doubts and concerns about your identity in a manner that helps us minimize the risk that unauthorized
persons might use a UK GDPR right to access your personal information. We will respond to all requests
without undue delay, and in accordance with the time frames, if any, prescribed by the UK GDPR. If you
are not satisfied with how we use your personal information or respond to your requests, you have the
right to complain to your data protection regulator. Contact information for the UK data protection
regulator can be found here.
