We want you to know that we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy lets you know about the information that we collect when you visit the Site from your computer, and what we do with that information. This Privacy Policy also applies to information collected from our mobile application available on [iPhone or Android] .

What type of information do we collect?

When you register for the Site, we may ask you for your name, email address, billing address, credit card information and for your consent to receive commercial electronic messages from us. [If you sign up for a trial/free account, you will not be asked to provide any credit card information.]

We use this information primarily for billing and contact purposes, but also for research and to improve our products and services.

We also collect and store the files and other information you upload. This is how you share your stuff, send messages to other users and recommend our service.

Who uses my information?

As a general rule, we won't share your information with other websites, nor will we sell your information to other companies. However, because our goal is to connect our users with talent and modelling agencies ("Agencies") we do share certain information about our users that allows these Agencies to select our users for various engagements. When that information is provided to Agencies, we ensure that your name, address and other similar personal information is not provided.

We use this information for the purposes that authorize. For example, if you do not want to receive emails from us or from third-party businesses, you can opt out here Cancel Email Notifications

Remember, when you click on third-party advertisements, or click-through to other websites from the Site, you are no longer governed by Mode's Privacy Policy.

Exceptionally, we will share your information in limited circumstances, including:

You’ve requested a product or service. Information shared with third party service providers remains confidential, and will only be shared if you authorize it.

We need to prevent or take action with regards to illegal activity, suspected fraud or threats to somebody's physical safety.

We need to investigate violations of our Terms of Use.

We transfer your information if Mode is acquired by another company. We will let you know if this is going to happen and will tell you if your collected information is subject to a new privacy policy.

We are compelled by law to produce your information.

What are Cookies?

Cookies make everything a lot easier. When you visit the Site, we send a small amount of data to whatever browser you use. That data is stored on your hard drive and is used when you return to the Site.

Cookies remember your browsing history and preferences to help tailor your experience on our Site and make navigation smoother. [To make sure nobody accidentally accesses your account, permanent cookies are not used on the Site.]

Where is my information stored?

Mode is a software as a service system and therefore utilizes third-party vendors and hosting partners for all of its system needs (hardware, software, storage, networking etc.) required to keep the Site going. We own and operate the Mode system, which helps us organize your data, but you own all rights to your data as defined in the Terms of Use

How is my information protected?

Mode is committed to protecting your information. While no service such as Mode can guarantee data security as the information threat landscape is constantly changing, we regularly review and enhance our security protocols and procedures in an effort to provide the highest level of protection for the information you provide to us.

What about information that I display publically on the Site?

Mode is a platform for storing and sharing and collaborating with photos and data. The service enables you to make some of your information public. By "public", we mean you authorizing photos and profile to be shared with others, commenting on publically available photos, profiles and engagements, or linking your account to other social media platforms that you currently use. Once you have opted to make information public, we can no longer protect that information for you.

What if I cancel my account with Mode?

We will retain your information and make it available for use in the Mode system for as long as your account is active. You can deactivate your account at any time. We will keep some of your information necessary to comply with legal requirements and to resolve conflicts. If you want to leave us permanently, we will do our best to delete all your information as soon as possible.

What if this Privacy Policy changes?

We may change this Privacy Policy. If we do, we will let you know, either by posting the changes on the Site or by notifying you through the email address provided when you set up your account.
