Your Profile and Content: When you add information to your profile and when you make posts or contribute other content to the App, your profile and content may be viewed by all users. This information is public and may be publicly distributed outside of the App in perpetuity. We cannot control the actions of users on the platform, who may seek to use third party apps or devices to save, store, or share content or information without other users' prior consent. Please keep this in mind when using the App.

Interactions with Other Users: If you interact with other users of the App, such as by following other users and appreciating posts, these interactions will be publicly visible to other users of the App.

Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your information with third parties that perform services for us or on our behalf, including data analysis, email delivery, hosting services, customer service, and marketing assistance. We may also share anonymous usage data with select third-party analytics services to analyze usage of the App.

Business Partners: We may share your information with our business partners to offer you certain products, services, or promotions. We may share your information with investors and other third parties for the purpose of conducting general business analysis.

By Law or to Protect Rights: If we believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of our policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation. This includes exchanging information with other entities for fraud protection.

Sale or Bankruptcy: If we reorganize or sell all or a portion of our assets, undergo a merger, or are acquired by another entity, we may transfer your information to the successor entity. If we go out of business or enter bankruptcy, your information would be an asset transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur and that the transferee may decline to honor commitments we’ve made in this Privacy Policy.

Your Choices

Update or Delete Your Information: You may at any time review or change the information in your account or terminate your account by logging into your account, navigating to settings, and updating or deleting your account. Upon your request to terminate your account, we will delete your account and information from our active databases. However, some information may be retained in our files to prevent fraud, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce our Terms of Service and/or comply with legal requirements.

Opt Out of Marketing Emails: You can unsubscribe from our marketing email list at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the marketing emails we send you. If you opt out of marketing communications, we may still send you other communications, like those about your account and legal notices.

Opt Out of Push Notifications: We may request to send you push notifications regarding your account or the App. If you wish to opt out from receiving these types of communications, you may turn them off in your device’s settings.

Security of Your Information

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse. Any information disclosed online is vulnerable to interception and misuse by unauthorized parties. Therefore, we cannot guarantee complete security if you provide personal information.

Do Not Track Signals

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems include a Do Not Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT signals.

Third-Party Websites

The App may contain links to third-party websites and applications that are not affiliated with us. Once you have used these links to leave the App, any information you provide to these third parties is not covered by this Privacy Policy, and we cannot guarantee the safety and privacy of your information. 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 are not responsible for the content, privacy and security practices, or policies of any third parties, including other sites, services, or applications that may be linked to or from the App.

Policy for Children

The App is not intended for use by children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly solicit information from or market to children under the age of 18. If we become aware of any data we have collected from children under the age of 18, we will delete it as quickly as is reasonably practical.

We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last Updated” date of this Privacy Policy and posting the updated Privacy Policy here. You are encouraged to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed of updates. Any changes or modifications will be effective immediately upon posting the updated Privacy Policy.
