Effective Date: November 22, 2024
This Privacy Policy describes the policies and procedures of Innovation Brands Corp. d/b/a Proxima.ai and its subsidiaries and affiliates (“Innovation Brands”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) regarding the collection, use and disclosure of your information on www.proxima.ai and www.dojomojo.com (the “Sites”) and the services, features or content we offer (collectively with the Sites, the “Services”). We receive information about you from various sources, including: (i) if you register for the Services through an Innovation Brands account; (ii) your use of the Services generally; (iii) if our enterprise customers (“Customers”) share your information with us in connection with their use of the Services; and (iv) from Third-Party Services.
Customers can use the Services to market to consumers who are on Customers’ email marketing list (these consumers are called “Subscribers”) and to acquire new Subscribers by partnering with other Customers to run a campaign or sweepstakes that requires participants in the campaign or sweepstakes to opt-in to the Customers’ marketing.
What Does This Privacy Policy Cover?
This Privacy Policy covers the treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) gathered when Customers are using or accessing the Services and sharing Subscriber information with Proxima. This Privacy Policy does not apply to Personal Information that we process on behalf of Customers while providing the Services to them. This Privacy Policy also does not apply to the practices of third parties that we do not own or control, including but not limited to any third-party websites, services, and applications (“Third-Party Services”) that you choose to access through the Services. While we attempt to facilitate access only to those Third-Party Services that share our respect for your privacy, we cannot take responsibility for the content or privacy policies of those Third-Party Services. We encourage you to carefully review the privacy policies of any Third-Party Services you access.
What Personal Information Do We Collect?
The information we gather enables us to personalize, improve and continue to operate the Services. In connection with certain aspects of the Services, we may request, collect and/or display some of your Personal Information.

If you use a third-party platform, like Google or LinkedIn, to create an account, we may collect Personal Information from that third-party platform. You can control the information the third-party platform shares with us in your account settings with that third-party platform. We may use your contact information to send you information about our Services, but only rarely when we feel such information is important. We reserve the right to contact you when we believe it is necessary, such as for account recovery purposes.

Some features of the Services allow you to provide content to the Services, such as messages and written comments. All content submitted by you to the Services may be retained by us indefinitely, even after you terminate your account, or as otherwise permitted under applicable laws.
