The Content is available for free or at premium at the Channel Holder discretion to share and subscribe.

To that end, we have prepared this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) to describe our information gathering and dissemination practices and our data protection practices for the Service. The terms “WR1,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to WR1 and its subsidiaries. The terms “you,” “your,” and “yours” refer to the user/customer utilizing the Service.

Any person who provides information to us through registration or in any other manner on the Site or the Service represents to WR1 that they are 13 years of age or older. If we learn that a child under 13 has submitted personal information to us, we will attempt to delete the information as soon as possible.

Collection of Information “Personally Identifiable Information” means any information which can be used to identify an individual, and may include, but is not limited to, name, email address, postal or other physical address, title, or occupation.
We may collect the following Personally Identifiable Information from you when you register for or use the Service: name, email, phone number, credit card payment information, other payment information, and billing address.
We may collect information when you register to join the Service by logging into an account that you already have with certain third-party social networking sites (“SNS”) (including, but not limited to, Facebook and Twitter) via the Service. By connecting to the Service with SNS, you give us permission to access, store and use your information from the SNS, including, but not limited to, your Personally Identifiable Information, any information that you have permitted the SNS to share with us, any information you have made public in connection with that service, any interests that are not hidden and mutual friends that you may have in common with another user. You should always review, and if necessary, adjust your privacy settings on third-party websites and services before linking or connecting them to the Service.
To participate in certain activities and to obtain certain services or documents offered on or through the Service, you may be asked to provide or share additional Personally Identifiable Information. We endeavor to limit our requests for Personally Identifiable Information to information we believe is reasonably necessary to achieve our purposes as described in the “Information Use” section below. You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of the Service’s features. Any Personally Identifiable Information received in communication or in material you transmit to WR1 by electronic mail or otherwise are and will be treated in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We also automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser, including without limitation your IP address, cookie information (as described below), and the page(s) you request.
We also reserve the right to anonymously track and report a user’s activity inside the Site and mobile applications.
Cookies Some of the pages on the Site may contain “cookies.” A cookie is a small data file that may be sent to your Web browser and stored on your computer. This allows our server to “recognize” you when your computer visits the Site in the future. Most Web browsers can be configured to not accept cookies, or to notify you if a cookie is sent to you. In some instances, WR1 may collect non-Personally Identifiable Information (aggregate or demographic data) through cookies.
Information Use WR1 uses Personally Identifiable Information for several general purposes:
- to provide you with product and service information, demos, and news regarding the Service,
- to support the products and services offered on or through the Service,
- to fulfill your subscription requests,
- to process your payments including credit checks and collection,
- to notify you of technical updates or changes in policy, or
We may use non-Personally Identifiable Information such as demographic data to analyze and develop our marketing strategy and further improve the Service and our other products and services.
You also may have the option to import your personal contacts (including email addresses of friend lists via SNS) to the Service so that you can find your friends on the Service, and your friends can find you on the Service.
Information Sharing and Disclosure We will not sell or rent your Personally Identifiable Information to third parties except as described in this Privacy Policy. We may disclose your Personally Identifiable Information to other companies or people under any of the following circumstances:
- when we have your consent to share the information.
- to those of our content providers or business partners from which you receive content and/or services (“users”).
- if sharing the information is reasonably necessary to provide a product or service that you have requested.
- to keep you up to date on the latest Service announcements, special offers, or other information we think you would like to hear about either from us or from our partners.
- if we believe in good faith that we are required to do so by law, in connection with litigation, to prevent a crime, or to protect personal safety, the public, or the Service.
- in connection with a sale of stock or assets, reorganization, consolidation, merger with another entity, or if WR1 should ever file for bankruptcy or have its assets sold to another entity.
- WR1 may also share non-Personally Identifiable Information, such as aggregate or demographic data, with third parties.
We may share the information in your WR1 account (including your Personally Identifiable Information) with the SNSs that you have linked to your account. These third parties have access to your Personally Identifiable Information only for this purpose (unless the SNS has received your Personally Identifiable Information independently of the Service) and not for other purposes.
Third Party Privacy Policies As described in this Privacy Policy, WR1 may share your Personally Identifiable Information with our users and/or business partners. Additionally, the Service may contain links to other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when leaving the Site or the Service to read the privacy statements of each site that collects Personally Identifiable Information, as those sites are solely responsible for such policies and protections.
You should also be aware that if you submit information to “comments feeds” and similar public communications channels, through the Service or otherwise, then such information becomes public information, meaning that you risk losing any privacy rights you might have with regards to that information. Such disclosures may also increase your chances of receiving unwanted communications from third parties.
Access You may correct, amend, or delete your Personally Identifiable Information by editing your profile on the Site or emailing us at hello@WR1.com.
Security We are committed to protecting Personally Identifiable Information from loss, misuse, disclosure, alteration, unauthorized access, and destruction. WR1 takes reasonable precautions to safeguard the confidentiality of Personally Identifiable Information. We protect the security of your Personally Identifiable Information during transmission to us by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts the information you input. While we strive to protect your Personally Identifiable Information, we cannot ensure the security of the information you transmit to us in all cases.
International Transfers Personally Identifiable Information collected on or through the Service may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which WR1 or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities, and by using the Service, you consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country.
Your Consent to this Privacy Policy By using the Service, you agree to this Privacy Policy. We may occasionally update this Privacy Policy in our sole discretion. The date of the most recent update of this document will always be displayed at the bottom of this Privacy Policy. If we decide to use Personally Identifiable Information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by email (the email address provided) or by posting the updated version of this Privacy Policy on the Site.

For this GDPR Privacy Notice, we use the terms “Personal Data” and “processing” as they are defined in the GDPR, but “Personal Data” generally means information that can be used to individually identify a person, and “processing” generally covers actions that can be performed in connection with data such as collection, use, storage and disclosure. WR1 Inc. (“WR1”) will be the controller of your Personal Data processed in connection with the Services.
Where applicable, this GDPR Privacy Notice is intended to supplement, and not replace, WR1’s Privacy Policy at http://www.wr1.com/privacy-policy (the “Privacy Policy”).

Afterwards, we retain some information in a depersonalized or aggregated form but not in a way that would identify you personally. However, user signup data (your name, your email address, and the fact that you were a WR1 user) may be retained in third-party analytics services beyond closure of your account, unless you request that your data be deleted.
Whenever you interact with our Services, we automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser or device which may include “cookie” information. “Cookies” are identifiers we transfer to your browser or device that allow us to recognize your browser or device and tell us how and when pages and features in our Services are visited and by how many people.
