We may also collect “Interactive Data”, meaning browser type, Internet service provider, device type/model/manufacturer, operating system, date and time stamp, and a unique ID that allows us to identify Your browser, mobile device, pages you visit, cell service/wifi provider or Your account (including, for example, a persistent device identifier or an Ad ID), and other similar information; You consent to such collection so that we can perform Services to You in connection with an Order (which is a contract between You and Us) and/or so we can provide You with relevant and/or requested Provided Content, data, information and Services. To improve our Services and avoid errors, we may obtain certain analytical information including records of the user sign in process, as well as login and logoff times, object loss metrics, test processes, button and action data and related information; such data may be shared with Instabug and/or Amplitude so we can provide You with the Services you want to receive, error-free.
Your Information, including Personal Data, is collected, stored, processed, used, and archived pursuant to this Privacy Policy.
In order to use Company Services, You may, from time to time, provide personally-identifying and other forms of information, including, but not limited to, your name, demographic data, e-mail address, phone number, and other contact information. In addition, if you make a purchase through our site, We and our third-party service providers may collect Your billing, shipping, and other information, and We may collect other supplemental information from third parties. You can always choose not to provide any information, but then You might not be able to take advantage of the Company’s products, data and/or services. Like most standard website servers, We use log files to collect Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (“ISP”), referring/exit pages, platform type, and date/time stamp. We may use the information to analyze site usage, administer the site, understand usage and navigation trends in the aggregate, and determine the relevance of Content. IP addresses are also linked to personally identifiable information to improve the user’s experience when using the Website. Although We have no obligation to do so, We may also retain any e-mail, letter, or other correspondence between You and Company and any representative or agent thereof, to ensure quality control.
Information supplied by You to Company may be used to serve You and to operate and maintain Our Services, and in performance of any contract, You enter into with us, including any order placed via the Sites.

We reserve the right to partner with any third party to provide specific Services and process, store and organize Personal Data on our behalf.
We may use Your Personal Data in connection with information from You that is not Personal Data which we have collected in a manner such that the end-product does not personally identify You or any other user of the Service. We may make information that would otherwise be deemed Personal Data (e.g. the number of Users who have ordered from a particular partner, or who live in a particular zip code) non-personally identifiable by either combining it with information about other users (aggregating Your Personal Data with information about other users), or by removing characteristics (such as Your name or e-mail address) that make the information personally identifiable. This process is known as de-personalizing or anonymizing Your information.

While providing services for us, these companies may access Your Personal Data. To the extent applicable, we require these entities to comply with this Privacy Policy and appropriate confidentiality and security measures.

In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies, or security authorities in those other countries may be entitled to access Your Personal Data. We will share personal information if we have a good faith belief that (i) access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, such as a court order or subpoena, or a request by law enforcement or governmental authorities, (ii) such action is appropriate to enforce our Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, including any investigation of potential violations thereof, (iii) such action is necessary to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues associated with the Service, or (iv) such action is appropriate to protect the rights, property or safety of Company, its employees/contractors/officers/affiliates, users of the Service or others.
