    1. Information Collected and Stored As You Access and Use the Service. In addition to any information that you choose to submit to us via our Service, we and our third-party service providers use a variety of technologies that automatically (or passively) store or collect certain information whenever you visit or interact with the Service (“Usage Information”). This Usage Information will be stored or accessed using a variety of technologies that will be downloaded to your personal computer, browser, laptop, tablet, mobile phone or other device (a “Device”) whenever you visit or interact with our Service. To the extent we associate Usage Information with your Business Information and/or Personal Information we collect directly from you on the Service, we will treat it as Personal Information. Usage Information includes:

      • your IP address, UDID, Ad-ID, or other unique identifier (“Device Identifier”). A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device used to access the Service, and our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier;

      • the areas within our Service that you visit and your activities there, including remembering you and your preferences;

      • content you post to the Service including messages you send and/or receive via the Service;

We use various methods and technologies to store or collect Usage Information (“Tracking Technologies”). A few of the Tracking Technologies used on the Service, include, without limitation, cookies, web beacons, embedded scripts, browser fingerprinting, entity tags, UTM codes, and recognition technologies that make assumptions about users and devices. We use Tracking Technologies for a variety of purposes, including:

      • Strictly Necessary. We use Tracking Technologies that we consider are strictly necessary to allow you to use and access our Service, including cookies required to prevent fraudulent activity, improve security or allow you to make use of Service functionality.

      • Performance Related. We use Tracking Technologies that are useful in order to assess the performance of the Service, including as part of our analytic practices or otherwise to improve the content, ads, products or services offered through the Service.

      • Functionality Related. We use Tracking Technologies that are required to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing the Service, including identifying you when you use our Service or keeping track of your specified preferences.

      • Targeting Related. We use Tracking Technologies to deliver content, including ads relevant to your interests on our Service and third-party services based on how you interact with our advertisements and/or content. This includes using Tracking Technologies to understand the usefulness to you of the content and ads that have been delivered to you.

We use Google Analytics, which is a web analytics tool that helps us understand how users engage with our Service. Like many services, Google Analytics uses first-party cookies to track user interactions, as in our case, where they are used to collect information about how users use our Service. This information is used to compile reports and to help us improve our Service. The reports disclose website trends without identifying individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics without affecting how you visit our Service – for more information on opting out of being tracked by Google Analytics across all websites you use, visit this Google page: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Further, third-parties may use Tracking Technologies in connection with our Service, which may include the collection of information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services as well as across your Devices. We do not control those Tracking Technologies and we are not responsible for them. However, you accept that you will encounter third-party Tracking Technologies in connection with use of our Service and accept that our statements under this Privacy Policy do not apply to the Tracking Technologies or practices of such third-parties.

    1. Information Collected and Stored When We Send You a Text Message. After you sign up for our Service (subject to your consent where required by applicable law), we and/or our FBO Users will send you text messages that provide marketing, promotional, and/or other information.

    3. Information Third-Parties Provide About You. We will, from time to time, supplement the information we collect directly from you on our Service with outside records from third-parties for various purposes, including to enhance our ability to serve you, to tailor our content to you and to offer you opportunities that may be of interest to you. To the extent we receive Personal Data from those sources we will apply this Privacy Policy.

    4. Interactions with Third-Party Services. The Service includes functionality that allows certain kinds of interactions between the Service and a third-party web site or application. The use of this functionality involves the third-party operator providing certain information, including Personal Information, to us. For example, we provide you third-party sites’ interfaces or links on the Service to facilitate your sending a communication from the Service, or we use third-parties to facilitate emails, tweets or Facebook postings. These third-parties retain any information used or provided in any such communications or other activities and these third-parties’ practices are not subject to our Privacy Policy. We do not control or have access to your communications through these third-parties. Further, when you use third-party sites or services, you are using their services and not our services and they, not we, are responsible for their practices. You should review the applicable third-party privacy policies before using such third-party tools on our Service.

    5. California Do Not Track Disclosures. Various third-parties are developing or have developed signals or other mechanisms for the expression of consumer choice regarding the collection of information about an individual consumer’s online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services (e.g., browser do not track signals). Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to these signals or other mechanisms.

    6. Information You Provide About a Third-Party. You may send someone else a communication from the Service, such as sending a message to a friend. If so, the information you provide (names, email addresses, telephone numbers, etc.) is used to facilitate the communication and is not used by us for any other marketing purpose unless we obtain consent from that person or we explicitly say otherwise. Please be aware that when you use any send-to-a-friend functionality on our Service, your contact information, name or username and message is included in the communication sent to your addressee(s). Third-party tools will be subject to third-party privacy policies.
