What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

Analytics

 

App Data through Installs of owned or Partner Apps containing our SDK

We may collect your location, device and mobile network information when you install an app that contains our SDK. This information is never shared with anyone in a way that can be linked back to you and is not stored beyond it’s usage needs on our site. We majorly use it to facilitate key processes in our app to help us serve you better and to help our Third Party Partners with Research and knowledge purposes in a way that can not be linked back to you or your device.

We never collect any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) except to validate device ownership for those who choose to participate in our Rewards/Loyalty Program and/or validate reward claim request. In these cases, we keep a copy of this information so as to ensure the validation process and claim request process is improved. And in this case, as already stated, we don’t share this type of information with anyone or third parties.

 

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Also you can also opt-out of receiving Notifications from our Partner Apps or owned apps at anytime without uninstalling the app. We have made adequate provision for this and your device will be opted out with immediate effect. If you want us to stop collecting your mobile device information and want to revoke approval/permission granted to us earlier, at any time, all you have to do is email – [email protected] and we will make sure to remove you and delete all data that we may still have or be processing at that moment.
