B. What is personal information and what do we collect from
you?
The following personal information about you may be collected and stored by us (personal information as used in this policy include personal data as defined under applicable law(s)):
(i) name, email address, photograph and precise or general geo-location;hen you use the App we may collect and store information about your location (general or precise) by converting your IP address into a rough geo-location or by accessing your mobile device's GPS coordinates or coarse location if you enable location services on your device. We may use location information to improve and personalize our Services for you. If you do not want us to collect location information, you may disable that feature on your mobile device. You can stop all collection of information via the App by uninstalling the app. You can also reset your device Ad Id at any time through your device settings, which is designed to allow you to limit the use of information collected about you. You can stop all collection of precise location data through the App by uninstalling the app or withdrawing your consent through your device settings.
If you choose to invite a "Friend" to use the App and our Services, we will ask you for their email address. We will use this information to invite him or her to join the App. We store this information for the sole purpose of sending invitations. If you ask us to do so by providing your consent, we may also send e-mails inviting your friends from your 'Contacts' list. If your Friend would like us to delete his or her information, they can do so by opting-out as described in each invitation or by contacting us at info@alpinesoftit.com. Third Party Resources Including Third Party Tracking Technologies We also use the services of third parties to help us to collect various data about you and the way that you use the App in order to enable us to better understand your interests – both so that we can service content to you that we think will be of interest to you, and so that we can ensure that you are shown adverts delivered by third parties which are more likely to be of interest to you.
We may collect information from your company or employer, including your contact data; social networks when you engage with our content, reference our Service, or grant us permission to access information from the social networks; Research Partners (as defined below) that analyze information for research and statistical purposes; and publicly-available sources, including data in the public domain.
We use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to help us understand how users access and use the Service. In addition, we work with agencies, advertisers, ad networks, and other technology services to place ads about our products and services on other websites and services. For example, we place ads through Google and Facebook that you may view on their platforms as well as on other websites and services.
As part of this process, we may incorporate tracking technologies into our own Service (including our website and emails) as well as into our ads displayed on other websites and services. Some of these tracking technologies may track your activities across time and services for purposes of associating the different devices you use, and delivering relevant ads and/or other content to you ("Interest-based Advertising").
Vendors and other parties may act as our service providers, or in certain contexts, independently decide how to process your information. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with and consult their privacy policies and terms of use.
For further information on the types of tracking technologies we use on the Service and your rights and choices regarding analytics, Interest-based Advertising, and Matched Ads, please see the "Your Rights and Choices" section.
You may remove cookies from your computer at any time.
Please note that we will not ask (and are not required by law to ask) for your consent to deliver cookies which are strictly necessary for us to offer our App and/or Services to you, or to monitor the volume of traffic that passes through our App or websites.
For details of the cookies that we use on our App and/or our website, what those cookies do, and the privacy policies of the third parties which provide them (where relevant) please see our Cookies Policy.
Unless specifically set out in our Cookies Policy, we rely on our legitimate interests as our condition for processing your personal data on the basis set out in this section (specifically that we have a legitimate interest in optimising the App content and ensuring that you are served with relevant commercial communications as you use them).
C. How do we use your personal information?
We may combine your information with information we collect from other sources to improve the App. We do not sell or rent your personally identifiable information to third parties, in the traditional sense of the word "sell," for their marketing purposes without your prior consent. You agree that we may use your personal information as specified in the Terms of Service, and to:
(i) fulfil the purposes disclosed when you provided your information to us;
(ii)
provide, deliver, and collect payment for the services, products, and customer support you
request;
(iii) review and process applications for employment;
(iv) resolve disputes,
collect fees, and troubleshoot problems;
(v) prevent potentially prohibited or illegal
activities, and enforce
our App- and Service-related agreements;
(vi) customize, measure, and improve our services and the App's content and
layout;
(vii) provide you with personalized content;
(viii) tell you about
targeted marketing, service updates,
and promotional offers based on your communication preferences, to the extent that you have
provided us with your consent to receive such communications under applicable law; and
(ix) compare information
for accuracy, and verify it with third parties. Further, we may disclose personal information to
respond to legal requirements, enforce Terms of Service or App policies, in connection with a
merger, sale of
assets, or other similar corporate transactions, respond to claims that a listing or other
content violates the rights of others, or protect the rights, property, or safety or any
person.
Please note that this Section does not apply to our use of personal information which relates to your health ('Health Data'). For information on how your Health Data is used, please see below. If you sign up to receive promotional materials from us via email we will use the information you give us to provide the communications you have requested.
When you receive such promotional communications from us, you will have the opportunity to "optout" (either through your Account or by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in the e-mail you receive). If you no longer wish to receive push notifications through our App, you may turn them off at the device level.
Please note that we do need to send you certain communications regarding the Services, such as communications regarding updates to our Terms of Service or this Privacy Policy, and you will not be able to opt out of those communications
D. Sharing Information
You may, at any time, request access to the personal information that we hold which relates to
you (you may have heard of this right being described as a "subject access request"). Please
note that this right entitles you to receive a copy of the personal
information that we hold about you in order to enable you to check that it is correct and to
ensure that we are processing that personal information lawfully. It is not a right that allows
you to request
personal information about other people, or a right to request specific documents from us that
do not relate to your personal information.
You can exercise this right at any time by writing to us using the contact details set out
sinfo@alpinesoftit.com and telling us that you are making a subject access request. You do not
have to fill in a specific form to make this kind of request.
Your Right to Rectification
and Erasure
You may, at any time, request that we correct personal information that we hold about you which
you believe is incorrect or inaccurate. You may also ask us to erase personal information if you
do not believe that we need to continue retaining it (you
may have heard of this right described as the "right to be forgotten"). To do this, we recommend
that you log into the App or Services.
We will not manually modify your personal information because it is very difficult to verify your identity remotely. Please note that we may ask you to verify any new data that you provide to us and may take our own steps to check that the new data you have supplied us with is right. Further, we are not always obliged to erase personal information when asked to do so; if for any reason we believe that we have a good legal reason to continue processing personal information that you ask us to erase we will tell you what that reason is at the time we respond to your request.
You must promptly update your personal information if it changes or is inaccurate. Upon your
request, we will close your account and remove your personal information from view as soon as
reasonably possible, based on your account activity and in accordance
with applicable law.
Your Right to Restrict Processing
Where we process your personal information on the basis of a legitimate interest (see the
sections of this Policy which explain how and why we use your information) you are entitled to
ask us to stop processing it in that way if you feel that our continuing
to do so impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms or if you feel that those legitimate
interests are not valid. We may process your data on the basis of a legitimate interest in the
following
ways:
- Optimised App content
- Track products and services that are popular
You may also ask us to stop processing your personal information (a) if you dispute the accuracy of that personal information and want us verify that data's accuracy; (b) where it has been established that our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where we no longer need to process your personal information (and would otherwise dispose of it) but you wish for us to continue storing it in order to enable you to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
Please note that if for any reason we believe that we have a good legal reason to continue processing personal information that you ask us to stop processing, we will tell you what that reason is, either at the time we first respond to your request or after we have had the opportunity to consider and investigate it.
You can exercise this right at any time by writing to us using the contact details set out info@alpinesoftit.com and telling us that you are making a request to have us stop processing the relevant aspect of your personal information and describing which of the above conditions you believe is relevant to that request. You do not have to fill in a specific form to make this kind of request.
Your Right to Portability
Where you wish to transfer certain personal information that we hold about you, which is processed by automated means, to a third party you may write to us and ask us to provide it to you in a commonly used machine-readable format.
Because of the kind of work that we do and the systems that we use, we do not envisage this right being particularly relevant to the majority of individuals with whom we interact. However, if you wish to transfer your data from us to a third party we are happy to consider such requests. Your Right to object to automated decision making and profiling You have the right to be informed about the existence of any automated decision making and profiling of your personal information, and where appropriate, be provided with meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing that affects you.
Your Right to stop receiving communications
Where we send you e-mail marketing communications (or other regulated electronic messages) you have the right to opt-out at any time. You can do this by using the 'unsubscribe' link that appears in the footer of each communication (or the equivalent mechanism in those communications).
Alternatively, if for any reason you cannot use those links, or if you would prefer to contact
us directly – you can unsubscribe by writing to us at info@alpinesoftit.com and telling us
which communications you would like us to stop sending you.
Analytics and Advertising
Google provides tools to allow you to opt out of the use of certain information collected by Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and by Google Analytics for Display Advertising or the Google Display Network at https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.
The companies we work with to provide you with targeted ads are required by us to give you the choice to opt out of receiving targeted ads. Most of these companies are participants of the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") and/or the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"). To learn more about the targeted ads provided by these companies, and how to opt out of receiving certain targeted ads from them, please visit: (i) for website targeted ads from DAA participants, https://www.aboutads.info/choices; (ii) for app targeted ads from DAA participants, https://www.aboutads.info/appchoices; and (iii) for targeted ads from NAI participants, https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Opting out only means that the selected participants should no longer deliver certain targeted ads to you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., in connection with the participants' other customers or from other technology services).
You may also limit our use of information collected from or about your mobile device for
purposes of serving targeted ads to you by going to your device settings and selecting "Limit Ad
Tracking" (for iOS devices) or "Opt out of Interest-Based Ads" (for
Android devices). Please note that if you opt out using any of these methods, the opt-out will
only apply to the specific browser or device from which you opt out. We are not responsible for
the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any opt out options or programs, or the accuracy of
any other entities' statements regarding their opt-out options or programs.
Exercising your
rights
When you write to us making a request to exercise your rights we are entitled to ask you to prove that you are who you say you are. We may ask you to provide copies of relevant ID documents to help us to verify your identity.
It will help us to process your request if you clearly state which right you wish to exercise
and, where relevant, why it is that you are exercising it. The clearer and more specific you can
be, the faster and more efficiently we can deal with your request.
If you do not provide us with sufficient information then we may delay actioning your request
until you have provided us with additional information (and where this is the case we will tell
you).
