INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Types of Information

We collect various kinds of information that you provide to us as well as information we obtain from your use of the Services. Some of the types of information that we collect include:

“Personal Information” includes information associated with or used to identify or contact a specific person. Personal Information includes: (1) contact data (such as business name, organization information, email address and phone number); (2) demographic data (such as gender, date of birth and zip code); (3) certain Usage Data (defined below), such as IP address; (4) language, device and operating system data; and (4) user-generated content or purchases.

Certain Personal Information, such as information about personal health or finances, your social security number, race/ethnicity, political opinions, religious beliefs, health information, criminal background or trade union memberships, is characterized as “Sensitive” and nay be subject to stricter regulation than other personal information. Before providing it to us, we urge you to carefully consider whether to disclose your Sensitive Personal Information to us. If you do provide Sensitive Personal Information to us, you consent to its use and disclosure for the purposes and in the manner described in this Privacy Policy.

“Usage Data” includes information about an individual’s online activity that, by itself, does not identify the individual, such as:

• technical information, including your device, browser type, service provider, IP address, operating system, language and webpages visited;

• metadata, which means information related to items you made available through the Services, such as the date, time or location that a shared photograph or video was taken or posted;

• email marketing activity.

Generally, we do not consider Usage Data as Personal Information because Usage Data by itself usually does not identify an individual. Personal Information and Usage Data may be linked together. Different types of Usage Information also may be linked together and, once linked, may identify an individual person. Some Usage Data may be Personal Information under applicable law.
