Data Collation and Tracking
User’s visit to the Site and use of Services are logged by the Owner.
We log usage data when Users visit or otherwise use the Services, including our Site, app and platform technology (e.g., our off-site plugins), such as when User views or clicks on any user generated or third party content (e.g., learning video) or ads (on or off our Site and apps), perform a search, share information or reports. We use tools such as log-ins, cookies, device information and internet protocol (“IP”) addresses to identify the User and log the usage.
Owner receives data from the User’s devices and networks, including location data.
When User visits or leaves Services (including our plugins or cookies or similar technology on the sites of others), we may receive the URL of both the site the User came from and the one User goes to next. We may also get information about the User’s IP address, proxy server, operating system, web browser and add-ons, device identifier and features, and/or ISP or the User’s mobile carrier. If Users use our Services from a mobile device, that device will send us data about User’s location. Most devices allow the User to prevent location data from being sent to us and we honor the User’s settings.
If the User communicates through our Services, we learn about that.
We collect information about the Users when Users send, receive, or engage with messages in connection with the Services. For example, if the Users get a Owner connection request, we track whether the Users have acted on it and will send the Users reminders.
You or Non-Subscriber under the control of a Subscriber may connect with other Subscribers or Non-Subscribers. The Site provides an on-line chat facility for Subscribers and Non-Subscribers. We monitor such interactions and gather relevant information. Subject to this Privacy Policy, such interactions may also be recorded by us provided that they shall be kept confidential at all times.
