This ImmiNet (also referred to as “we” or “us”) privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes how we collect and use information pertaining to each of our unregistered visitors and registered users (each, a “Visitor” or “User” (respectively), or “you”), in connection with their access to and use of ImmiNet’s website (the “Site”) (“Services”).
The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to provide you with a clear explanation of when, why and how we collect and use your personal information, as well as an explanation of your statutory rights.

We collect two types of information regarding our Visitors and Users:
There are two main methods we use:
A note here for those in the European Union about our legal grounds for processing your Personal Information under EU data protection laws, which is that our use of your Personal Information is based on the grounds that:
We use information about you as mentioned above and for the purposes listed below:
Visitors’ and Users’ Personal Information may be maintained, processed and stored by us and our authorized affiliates and service providers in Israel, Europe, and in other jurisdictions as necessary for the proper delivery of our Services and/or as may be required by law.
ImmiNet affiliates and service providers that store or process your Personal Information on ImmiNet’s behalf are each contractually committed to keep it protected and secured, in accordance with industry standards and regardless of any lesser legal requirements which may apply in their jurisdiction.
We do not sell our users’ private Personal Information.
We share Personal Information about you in the limited circumstances spelled out below and with appropriate safeguards on your privacy:
To clarify, ImmiNet may share your Personal Information in manners other than as described above, pursuant to your explicit approval, or if we are legally obligated to do so. Moreover, ImmiNet may transfer, share, disclose or otherwise use Non-personal Information in its sole discretion and without the need for further approval.
Because ImmiNet’s Services are offered worldwide, the information about you that we process when you use the Services in the EU may be used, stored, and/or accessed by individuals operating outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) who work for us or third party data processors. This is required for the purposes listed in the ‘How and Why We Use Information’ section above. When providing information about you to entities outside the EEA, we will take appropriate measures to ensure that the recipient protects your personal information adequately in accordance with this Privacy Policy as required by applicable law. These measures include:
We generally discard such Personal Information about you when we no longer need the information for the purposes for which we collect and use it and we are not legally required to continue to keep it.
We may continue to retain such Personal Information even after you deactivate your User account and/or cease to use any particular Services, as reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes regarding our Users, prevent fraud and abuse, enforce our agreements and/or protect our legitimate interests.
While no online service is 100% secure, we work very hard to protect your Personal Information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction, and take reasonable measures to do so, such as monitoring our Services for potential vulnerabilities and attacks.
We therefore encourage you to set strong passwords for your User account, and avoid providing us or anyone with any sensitive information of which you believe its disclosure could cause you substantial or irreparable harm.
If you have any questions regarding the security of our Services, you are welcome to contact us at [email protected]
Our Services offer publicly accessible blogs, communities and support forums. Please be aware that any information you provide in any such areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them. To request removal of your Personal Information from our blogs, communities or forums, feel free to contact us at [email protected]
In any event, we advise against posting any information (or use any posting means to post information) you don’t wish to publicize on these platforms.
If you upload any content to your User account and provide it in any other way as part of the use of any Service, you do so at your own risk.
If you are located in certain countries, including those that fall under the scope of the European General Data Protection Regulation (AKA the “GDPR”), data protection laws give you rights with respect to your Personal Information, subject to any exemptions provided by the law, including the rights to:
You can usually access, correct, or delete your Personal Information using your account’s settings and tools that we offer, but if you aren’t able to do that, or you would like to contact us about one of the other rights, please contact us at [email protected]
EU individuals also have the right to make a complaint to a government supervisory authority.
ImmiNet, together with its partners, uses certain monitoring and tracking technologies (such as cookies, beacons, pixels, tags and scripts). These technologies are used in order to maintain, provide and improve our Services on an ongoing basis, and in order to provide our Visitors and our Users with a better experience. For example, thanks to these technologies, we are able to maintain and keep track of our Visitor’s and Users’ preferences and authenticated sessions, to better secure our Services, to identify technical issues, user trends and to monitor and improve the overall performance of our Services.
Please note that third party services placing cookies or utilizing other tracking technologies through our Services may have their own policies regarding how they collect and store information. Such practices are not covered by our Privacy Policy and we do not have any control over them.
Cookies: In order for some of these technologies to work properly, a small data file (“cookie”) must be downloaded and stored on your device. By default, we use several persistent cookies for purposes of session and user authentication, security, keeping the User’s preferences (e.g., regarding default language and settings), connection stability (e.g., for uploading media, using e-commerce features, etc.), monitoring performance of our services and generally providing and improving our Services.
If you want to delete or block any cookies, please refer to the help and support area on your internet browser for instructions on how to locate the file or directory that stores cookies. Please note that deleting our cookies or disabling future cookies or tracking technologies may prevent you from accessing certain areas or features of our Services, or may otherwise adversely affect your user experience.
The Site is not directed to persons under 18. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided us with Personal Information without their consent, he or she should contact us at [email protected]. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with Personal Information, we will delete such information from our files.
We may update this Privacy Policy as required by applicable law, and to reflect changes to our information collection, usage and storage practices. If we make any changes that we deem as “material” (in our sole good faith discretion), we will notify you (as set forth in our Terms of Use) prior to the change becoming effective. We encourage you to periodically check this page for the latest information on our privacy practices.
You are responsible for reviewing the Privacy Policy so you are aware of any changes or updates. Any new features that augment or enhance the current Services, including the release of new tools, services and resources, are subject to the Privacy Policy. Continued use of the Services after any such changes shall constitute your consent to such changes.
Any heading, caption or section title contained herein, is provided only for convenience, and in no way defines or explains any section or provision hereof, or legally binds any of us in any way.
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold ImmiNet, its third parties, successors, officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, suppliers and service providers (and their successors, officers, directors, and employees) harmless from and against any and all claims, actions or demands, costs, liabilities, judgment, losses, expenses and damages (including attorneys’ fees), resulting from, or alleged to result from, your violation of the Privacy Policy.
