As part of these activities, we may create aggregated, de-identified and/or anonymized data from personal information we collect. We make personal information into de-identified or anonymized data by removing information that makes the data personally identifiable to you. We may use this aggregated, de-identified or otherwise anonymized data and share it with third parties for our lawful business purposes, including to analyze, improve and promote the Service and our business.

To comply with applicable laws, lawful requests, and legal process (such as to respond to subpoenas or requests from government authorities), and to protect our, your or others’ rights, privacy, safety, or property (including by making and defending legal claims), including by enforcing the terms and conditions that govern the Service, and taking steps to prevent, investigate and deter fraud, cyberattacks or other unauthorized, unethical, or illegal activity.

How we share your personal information

We may share your personal information with the following categories of recipients and as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy or at the time of collection:

Third parties you designate. Third parties with whom you direct us to share your personal information, such as when you agree to participate in a research study.

Service providers. Third parties that provide services on our behalf or help us operate the Service or our business (such as hosting, information technology and security, support, email delivery, payments, generative artificial intelligence, safety monitoring, performance monitoring, marketing, customer research, and analytics).

Payment processors. When you make purchases through the Service, your transactions are processed by third party payment processors. These payment processors may collect your name, phone number, e-mail address, mailing address, billing address, payment card information, and other information needed to process your payment. They may also retain this information to enable you to purchase additional items through our Service without having to re-enter your payment information each time. They do not share your payment card information with us. Their collection and use of your personal information is governed by their own privacy policies, terms and rules - we encourage you to read them.

Third party authentication services. When you log into the Service by using your credentials on a third party service, such Google, Meta (Facebook), Instagram, and X (fka Twitter), the service will collect personal information from you to facilitate the authentication as described in the service's relevant settings or privacy policy, and may retain a record that you accessed the services.

CAPTCHA services. To enhance the security of our Service, we use captcha features that require users to complete a task to authenticate to the Service. Third party providers of these CAPTCHA services collect Device Data and Usage Data, as described above to enable the CAPTHCA features and as described in their privacy policies.

Professional advisors. Professional advisors, such as lawyers, accountants, auditors, bankers, and insurers, where necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us.

Affiliates. Corporate affiliates that we control, are controlled by, or with which we are under common control, for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy.

Exercise California removal rights. Registered users of the Service who are California residents and under 18 years of age may request and obtain removal of content or information that they posted on the Service where it can be accessed by others. Please contact us with these requests. Upon receipt of the request, we will comply with applicable legal requirements to remove it or ensure that it is anonymized. Such removal does not ensure complete or comprehensive removal of the content, as, for example, some of the content or data may have been reposted by another user.

Other sites and services

The Service may link to or integrate with websites and other online services operated by third parties. In addition, our content may be integrated into web pages or other online services that are not associated with us. These links and integrations are not an endorsement of, or representation that we are affiliated with, any third party. We do not control websites or other online services operated by third parties, and we are not responsible for their actions. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of the other websites, mobile applications, and online services you use.

Security and Retention

We employ technical, organizational, and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we collect. However, security risk is inherent in all internet and information technologies, and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.

The length of time we retain a category of personal information is determined based on whether it is sufficient to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including to satisfy legal, regulatory, accounting, or reporting requirements, establish or defend legal claims, enforce our agreements, resolve disputes or fraud prevention. We may either delete or anonymize personal information we no longer require.

International data transfers

We are headquartered in the United States and may use service providers that operate in the United States and other countries. Your personal information may be transferred to the United States or other locations where privacy laws may not be as protective as those where you live.

Children

The Service is not intended for use by anyone under 18 years of age. If you are a parent or guardian of a child under 18 from whom you believe we have collected personal information in a manner prohibited by law, please contact us. If we learn that we have collected personal information through the Service from a child under 18 years of age without the consent of the child's parent or guardian as required by law, we will comply with applicable legal requirements to delete the information.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by updating the date of this Privacy Policy and posting it on the Service or other appropriate means. Any modifications to this Privacy Policy will be effective upon our posting the modified version (or as otherwise indicated at the time of posting). In all cases, your use of the Service after the effective date of any modified Privacy Policy indicates your acknowledgment that the modified Privacy Policy applies to your interactions with the Service and our business.
