Notice to European Union Users
Melodrama Mama’s operations are located primarily in the United States. If you provide
information to us, the information will be transferred out of the European Union (EU) and sent to
the United States. (The adequacy decision on the EU-US Privacy became operational on August
1, 2016. This framework protects the fundamental rights of anyone in the EU whose personal
data is transferred to the United States for commercial purposes. It allows the free transfer of
data to companies that are certified in the US under the Privacy Shield.) By providing personal
information to us, you are consenting to its storage and use as described in this Policy.
Security
Melodrama Mama takes precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive
information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline. Wherever we
collect sensitive information (e.g. credit card information), that information is encrypted and
transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar
and looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the webpage.
While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your
information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for
example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information.
The computers and servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a
secure environment. This is all done to prevent any loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure
or modification of the user’s personal information under our control.
The company also uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for authentication and private
communications to build users’ trust and confidence in the internet and website use by providing
simple and secure access and communication of credit card and personal information.

following the posting of any updates or changes to our terms and conditions shall mean that you

GDPR Disclosure:
If you answered “yes” to the question Does your website comply with the General Data Protection Regulation
(“GDPR”)? then the Privacy Policy above includes language that is meant to account for such compliance. Nevertheless,
in order to be fully compliant with GDPR regulations your company must fulfill other requirements such as: (i) doing an
assessment of data processing activities to improve security; (ii) have a data processing agreement with any third party
vendors; (iii) appoint a data protection officer for the company to monitor GDPR compliance; (iv) designate a
representative based in the EU under certain circumstances; and (v) have a protocol in place to handle a potential data
breach. For more details on how to make sure your company is fully compliant with GDPR, please visit the official
website at https://gdpr.eu. FormSwift and its subsidiaries are in no way responsible for determining whether or not your
company is in fact compliant with GDPR and takes no responsibility for the use you make of this Privacy Policy or for
any potential liability your company may face in relation to any GDPR compliance issues.
COPPA Compliance Disclosure:
This Privacy Policy presumes that your website is not directed at children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly
collect personal identifiable information from them or allow others to do the same through your site. If this is not true for
your website or online service and you do collect such information (or allow others to do so), please be aware that you
must be compliant with all COPPA regulations and guidelines in order to avoid violations which could lead to law
enforcement actions, including civil penalties.
In order to be fully compliant with COPPA your website or online service must fulfill other requirements such as: (i)
posting a privacy policy which describes not only your practices, but also the practices of any others collecting personal
information on your site or service — for example, plug-ins or ad networks; (ii) include a prominent link to your privacy
policy anywhere you collect personal information from children; (iii) include a description of parental rights (e.g. that you
won’t require a child to disclose more information than is reasonably necessary, that they can review their child’s
personal information, direct you to delete it, and refuse to allow any further collection or use of the child’s information,
and the procedures to exercise their rights); (iv) give parents “direct notice” of your information practices before
collecting information from their children; and (v) obtain the parents’ “verifiable consent” before collecting, using or
disclosing personal information from a child. For more information on the definition of these terms and how to make sure
your website or online service is fully compliant with COPPA please visit https://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/businesscenter/guidance/childrens-online-privacy-protection-rule-six-step-compliance. FormSwift and its subsidiaries are in no
way responsible for determining whether or not your company is in fact compliant with COPPA and takes no
responsibility for the use you make of this Privacy Policy or for any potential liability your company may face in relation
to any COPPA compliance issues.
