Except as otherwise provided by a bankruptcy or other court, the use and disclosure of all transferred Personal Data will be subject to compliance with applicable data protection laws. Any Personal Data that an individual submits or that is collected after the reorganization may be subject to a new privacy policy adopted by the successor entity, of which we will inform, where required.

Service Improvements.  We may disclose personal information to our service providers in order to improve our App and Services, such as to identify bugs, repair errors, or ensure that services function as intended, or conduct internal research and analysis to improve our technology.

In addition to the above, we also may disclose personal information to third parties at your direction.

Cross-Border Transfers

If we transfer EEA/EU/UK/Switzerland Personal Data to affiliates in the US, we will put in place appropriate intra-group agreements in accordance with the GDPR requirements, including use of the EU Commission-approved Standard Contractual Clauses for Controllers as appropriate. If we transfer EEA/EU/UK/Switzerland Personal Data to third parties, such as service providers or business partners in countries outside the EEA/EU/UK/Switzerland, we will put in place the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or other relevant international transfer documentation that complies with the GDPR requirements. We will also put in place a GDPR-compliant data processing agreement.

Data Retention

We will retain Personal Data that we collect and Process where we have a justifiable business need to do so and/or for as long as it is needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. We may retain Personal Data as required by law, such as for tax, legal, or accounting purposes. When, in our reasonable discretion, we have no justifiable business need to Process your Personal Data (for example, after all of our necessary interactions have ended, our internal record keeping policies no longer require us to continue to Process your Personal Data, and we have no other legal obligations to retain your Personal Data), we will either delete it or anonymize it.

Data Subject Rights under the GDPR

The GDPR grants individuals who are in the EU/EEA/UK the following rights, with some limitations. Individuals may contact us, at our contact information as set forth herein to exercise any of those rights and we will respond with the requested action or information, or will let you know why such rights do not apply to you. These rights are not absolute and are subject to various conditions under applicable data protection and privacy legislation and the laws and regulations to which we are subject. In some cases, the exercise of these rights (for example, erasure, objection, restriction or the withholding or withdrawing of consent to processing) may make it impossible for us to provide services.

Right Not to Provide Consent or to Withdraw Consent. We may seek to rely on your consent in order to Process certain Personal Data. Where we do so, you have the right not to provide your consent, and the right to withdraw your consent at any time. If you withdraw your consent, this will not affect the lawfulness of the Processing conducted based on consent before its withdrawal.

Right of Access. You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not we collect or Process Personal Data concerning you and, if this is the case, you have the right to request a copy of such Personal Data in digital format.

Right of Rectification. You have the right to require that we correct any inaccurate Personal Data concerning you, and that we complete incomplete Personal Data.

Right of Erasure. In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we erase Personal Data concerning you; for example, if it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was originally collected and we do not otherwise have a legitimate reason to retain it. We may need to retain certain Personal Data when legally required, for internal, record keeping purposes, and/or in order to complete any transactions initiated prior to an individual’s request to remove or delete their Personal Data. Where we are unable to delete data from our systems, we will anonymize it so it will no longer be tied to your identity.

Right to Restrict Processing. In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we restrict the Processing of the Personal Data that we have collected about you; for example, where you believe that the Personal Data that we hold about you is not accurate or lawfully held.

Right to Data Portability. In certain circumstances, you have the right to receive the Personal Data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, machine readable format, and for us to transmit the data to another entity where technically feasible.

Right to Object to the Processing. In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we stop Processing your Personal Data, including where we rely on legitimate interests as legal basis in the tables on the details of Processing provided above. If you receive commercial electronic communications from us, you can unsubscribe from the receipt of future commercial electronic communications from us by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link provided in such communications. Please also note that if you do opt out of receiving commercial electronic communications from us, we may still send you important administrative messages (such as updates about your account or changes in the Services), and you cannot opt out from receiving these messages, unless you stop receiving our Services.

Right Not to be Subject to Decisions Based Solely on Automated Processing that Produce Legal Effects. We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing—including profiling—that produces legal effects or similarly affects you.

Right to Complain to a Supervisory Authority. You have the right to lodge a complaint with a Supervisory Authority if you believe that our Processing of Personal Data relating to you is inconsistent with our obligations under the GDPR. In this situation, we ask you please consider contacting us first, so that we can try and assist with your query or address your concern.

To exercise any of your rights as set forth herein, please contact us in writing, via email or postal mail as indicated above, so that we may consider your request under applicable law. We may ask that you provide the following Personal Data for us to address your request speedily:

  • The name, User ID, pseudonym, email address, or other identifier you have provided to us or if you have not otherwise previously interacted with us, your first and last name and an address where we can correspond with you;

  • The country in which you are located;

  • A clear description of the Personal Data or content you wish to receive or to be deleted or corrected, or the action you wish to be taken; and

  • Sufficient information to allow us to locate the content or Personal Data to be deleted, removed, or corrected.

For your protection, we may only implement requests with respect to the Personal Data that are associated with the particular email address that you use to send us your request. In addition, please note that, depending on the nature of your inquiry, request, or complaint, we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request and may require proof of identity, such as in the form of a government issued ID and proof of your physical address. We will try to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable and in any case within the timelines prescribed by applicable laws. However, we reserve the right to refuse to act on a request that is manifestly unfounded or excessive (for example because it is repetitive) and/or, in some cases, to charge a fee that takes into account the administrative costs for providing the information or the communication or taking the action requested.

Data Security

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our App, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. We urge you to be careful about giving out information in public areas of the App like message boards. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the App.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet and mobile platforms is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted through our App. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures we provide.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We may update our privacy policy from time to time. If we make material changes to how we treat our users’ personal information, we will post the new privacy policy on this page with a notice that the privacy policy has been updated and notify you by email and/or text message to the email address and/or phone number specified in your account and/or an in-App alert the first time you use the App after we make the change.

The date the privacy policy was last revised is identified at the top of the page. You are responsible for ensuring we have an up-to-date active and deliverable email address and/or phone number for you and for periodically visiting this privacy policy to check for any changes.
