The Information We Collect
Registering and Using the Services
If you register to use the Services and create a profile, or provide us information through other sources including, but not limited to, events, surveys, social media platforms, sweepstakes, contest entries, customer contact centers, local providers, you may voluntarily give us certain information about yourself such as name, email address, phone number, gender, postal address, profile picture, handedness, birthday, photos, videos, or other information (“Profile Information”). When you use the Services, the RapidShot system will automatically collect and track information about your performance metrics.
If you’re using the Services on your mobile device, you may also choose to provide us with location data.
Website Access and Log Data
Like most website operators, RapidShot collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request when visitors use the Services. RapidShot’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how RapidShot’s visitors use the Services. From time to time, RapidShot may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its Services. RapidShot also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to the Services. For instance, RapidShot may monitor the Services to help identify spam. We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking).
In addition to log data, we may also collect information about the device you’re using to access the Services, including the type of device, the operating system, device settings, device identifiers and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this information often depends on what type of device you’re using and its settings. To learn more about the information your device makes available to us, please review the policies of your device manufacturer or software provider.
We do not collect personal information automatically, but we may tie this information to personal information about you that we collect from other sources or you provide to us.
In addition, we may use third party services such as Google Analytics that collect, monitor and analyze this type of information in order to increase the Services’ functionality. These third party service providers have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information.
