This Privacy Policy applies to Mentorcam, Inc. (“we,” “our,” “us”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share the personal information that we gather on the Mentorcam application as well as the subdomains and websites on mentor.cam (the “Sites”) or through your use of our services. By continuing to use our Sites, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Mentorcam is a platform to connect content creators (“Mentors”) with their fans (“Mentees”) through video messages (“Mentorcam Video”). The use of “you” and “your” throughout this Privacy Policy will, depending on the context, refer to a Mentee, Mentor, or Visitor, further defined below.
Mentee: You intend to use Mentorcam to ask questions of Mentors.
Mentor: You intend to use Mentorcam to answer questions from Mentees.
Visitors: You are browsing our Sites, using the Mentorcam application, or have applied for a job at Mentorcam.
These categories are not exclusive. For instance, a person who has signed up to be a Mentor may also ask questions of other Mentors and become the Mentee for that specific interaction. Additionally, all Mentees and Mentors are Visitors, and the sections designated for Visitors will apply to both Mentees, Mentors, and Visitors.
If you are a Mentee and you provide additional personal information to a Mentor in a Mentorcam Video, this Privacy Policy does not apply to any of the Mentors’ practices other than those practices expressly disclosed below. Mentors are under agreement to only contact Mentees through Mentorcam and to keep Mentorcam Videos private.
Information You Give Us. You may give us information by signing up for a Mentorcam account, entering information through forms or surveys on our Sites or application, or contacting us by phone or email for information or customer service.

This includes Log Data, such as your computer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Sites that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics, and whether you reached our page via a social media or email campaign. This information may be collected via several technologies, including cookies, web beacons, clear GIFs, canvas fingerprinting and other means, such as Facebook Pixel.

If you access our Sites through third parties (e.g., Facebook or Google), or if you share content from our Sites to a third-party social media service, the third-party service will send us certain information about you if the third-party service and your account settings allow such sharing. The information we receive will depend on the policies and your account settings with the third-party service.
We use your personal information as follows:
To Mentees or the Public. If you are a Mentor, we may share your name, present or former job titles, images, or short video introductions publicly as part of your Mentor profile. Any Mentorcam Video messages recorded in response to a Mentee question will be shared with the Mentee.
To Mentors. If you are a Mentee, we may share your name and Mentorcam Video message with the Mentor. Mentors are under agreement to only contact Mentees through Mentorcam and to keep Mentorcam Videos private.

Third Party Marketing and Advertising Organizations. With respect to website cookies, if you are a Visitor, we share your information with third party marketing and advertising partners to market our Services on our Sites and other websites that you may visit. Learn more in our Cookie Policy.
Third Party Links and Websites. Our Sites may contain links to and from the websites of third parties.

This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection.
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. DNT is a way for users to inform websites and services that they do not want certain information about their webpage visits collected over time and across websites or online services. We do not recognize or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals, as the Internet industry is currently still working toward defining exactly what DNT means, what it means to comply with DNT, and a common approach to responding to DNT.
To make our Sites and services work properly, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, shopping cart, or other preferences) over a period of time, so you do not have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another. To learn more, please see our Cookie Policy.

We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy for more information.

You can learn more about how to control advertising cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link, the DAA’s Consumer Opt-Out link for browsers, or the DAA’s opt-out link for mobile devices. Please note that electing to opt-out will not stop advertising from appearing in your browser or applications and may make the ads you see less relevant to your interests.
