Effective Date: 1 March 2021
Your privacy is important to eieio, LLC ("eieio", "we", "us" and/or "our"). This privacy policy has been created to provide information about our practices regarding the personally identifiable information (“Personal Data”) we collect from users ("you" and/or "your") of our mobile, desktop and website applications (collectively, the “Services"). By submitting Personal Data through our Services, you agree to the terms of this privacy policy, and you expressly consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Data in accordance with this privacy policy.
When you interact with eieio through the Services, we may collect Personal Data and other information from you, as further described here. The data we collect from you falls into two different categories: (1) information you give us; and (2) information we collect from you automatically.
Information You Give Us.
Information We Collect Automatically from You.
In operating the Services (and in particular in making our website available), we may also use a technology called "cookies." A cookie is a small text file (typically made up of letters and numbers) placed in the memory of your browser or device when you visit the Services. Cookies allow a website to recognize a particular device or browser. Our cookies help provide additional functionality to the Services and help us analyze Services usage more accurately. For instance, our Services may set a cookie on your browser that allows you to access the Services without needing to remember and then enter a password more than once during a visit to the Services. On most web browsers, you will find a "help" section on the toolbar. Please refer to this section for information on how to receive notifications when you are receiving a new cookie and how to turn cookies off.
We may collect device-specific information (such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone number). We may associate your device identifiers or phone number with your eieio account.
Do Not Track Signals:
We may (and we may allow third party service providers to) use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activities over time and across different websites following your use of the Service. Do Not Track (DNT) is an optional browser setting that allows you to express your preferences regarding tracking by advertisers and other third-parties. Our Service currently does not respond to "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals and operates as described in this Privacy Policy whether or not a DNT signal is received. If we do respond to such DNT signals in the future, we will describe how we do so in this Privacy Policy.
Information we Collect Automatically from You in a Non-Identifiable or Aggregated Form.
When you interact with eieio through the Services, we receive and store certain personally non-identifiable information. Such information, which is collected passively using various technologies, cannot through our application presently be used to specifically identify you. eieio may store such information itself or such information may be included in databases owned and maintained by eieio affiliates, agents or service providers. The Services may use such information and pool it with other information to track, for example, the number of transactions that are effected through the Service, the number of messages you send and receive, the total number of users of our Services, the domain names of our visitors' Internet service providers, and how our users use and interact with the Services. Also, in an ongoing effort to better understand and serve the users of the Services, eieio may conduct research on its customer demographics, interests and behavior based on the Personal Data and other information provided to us. This research may be compiled and analyzed on an aggregate basis. eieio may share this non-identifiable and aggregate data with its affiliates, agents and business partners, but this type of non-identifiable and aggregate information does not identify you personally. eieio may also disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe our services to current and prospective business partners, and to other third parties for other lawful purposes.
We may also employ the use of anonymous identifiers, which are random strings of characters that are used for the same purposes as cookies on platforms, including certain mobile devices, where cookie technology is not available.
We may use Web beacons or similar technology on the Services. Web beacons are small, invisible graphic images that may be used on the Service or in emails relating to the Service to collect certain personally non-identifiable information and monitor user activity on the Services, such as to count visits, understand usage effectiveness and to tell if an email has been opened and acted upon.
Other Uses of Your Personal Data.
eieio and its subsidiaries and affiliates (the "Related Companies") may also use your Personal Data and other personally non-identifiable information collected through the Services to help us customize the Services, improve the content and functionality of the Services, better understand our users, prevent fraud and improve the Services. eieio and its Related Companies may use this information to communicate with you regarding the Services or to tell you about services we believe will be of interest to you. If we do so, any marketing communication we send you will contain instructions permitting you to "opt-out" of receiving future marketing communications. In addition, if at any time you wish not to receive any future marketing communications or you wish to have your name deleted from our mailing lists, please contact us as indicated below. Note however that as user of the Service you cannot opt-out of some administrative communications that are reasonably necessary to the Service, such as billing, collection or service notifications.
OUR DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AND OTHER INFORMATION
