Privacy Policy


H360ventures, LLC, doing business as PHRsToday (“PHRsToday”), the operator of the PHRsToday.com website (the “Site”) is committed to protecting your privacy. We believe it is important for you to know what information is being collected about you, how that information is being used, with whom it is being shared, and how to contact us if you have additional questions or concerns. If you do not agree to the terms of this privacy policy, you may not use the Site.

This privacy policy does not apply to ideas, inventions, business information, or other content you send by email to PHRsToday. If you want any ideas, inventions, business information, or other content to remain confidential, do not send them to PHRsToday.

What information does PHRsToday gather/track, and how is it used?
Information gathered online can generally be categorized as either anonymous or personally identifiable. Anonymous information is information that cannot be traced back to a specific individual. For example, PHRsToday knows how many searches are queried each day but does not know the names, e-mail addresses or gender of the people searching. Personally identifiable information is information that identifies, either alone or with other information, a particular individual.

Gathering and Use of Personally Identifiable Information
PHRsToday gathers names, phone numbers, and email addresses, in response to user request for contact. PHRsToday uses this information to respond to user request for further information. PHRsToday does not gather information which is provided by users in comments to blog posts. Except for names, phone numbers, and email addresses, gathered by PHRsToday in response to user request for contact, PHRsToday bears no responsibility for any matter concerning personally identifiable information which a user may provide, whether in a comment to a blog post or otherwise.

Gathering and Use of Anonymous Information
Each time a visitor comes to the Site, we collect some information to improve the overall quality of the online experience, including product monitoring, product improvement, and targeted advertising. At the Site, we collect, among other things, the visitor's domain name (e.g. whether the user is logged on google.com or yahoo.com), referral data (e.g., we record the URL address of the last website a user visited prior to clicking through to the Site), and browser and platform type (e.g., Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 browser on a Windows XP platform).

In addition to collecting these types of information, PHRsToday collects aggregate queries for internal reporting and targeted advertising. We also count, track, and aggregate the visitor's activity into our analysis of general traffic flows at our sites (e.g. tracking where traffic comes from, how traffic flows within the H360ventures properties, etc.). To these ends, we may merge information about you into group data, which may then be shared on an aggregated anonymous basis with our advertisers; but PHRsToday will not disclose your individual identity or personal data without your permission. If PHRsToday presents aggregated information to outside companies, no personally identifiable information will be disclosed.

Emails
Under certain circumstances we will collect and store with our email service provider an email address that you provide to us. For further information, please see http://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/. Except for information gathered in connection with a user providing contact information on the site’s Contact Us page, the email addresses are not associated with any other personally identifiable information. If you wish to correct an email address, or delete an email address from PHRsToday’s records, please contact us.
