which we use to provide and improve our products, send
notifications and updates, troubleshoot, and to support our

about what we collect, how we use it and whom we share it
with, and that’s why we've written this Privacy Policy. This
Privacy Policy also tells you about your rights and choices
with respect to your information, and how you can contact us
if you have any questions or concerns. Below is a snapshot of
some of our important privacy practices, but please read the
full Policy for more detail. If you have any questions about

This Privacy Policy covers the free and paid versions of
applications including the mobile and desktop applications, as
well as the our websites, (collectively, the “Services”). The
terms “applications”, “We”, “Us” and “Our” include
applications, and our affiliates and subsidiaries. By using

Privacy Policy. Beyond the Privacy Policy, your use of the
Services is also subject to our Terms of Service. Separate

processing of your Personal Information in that context,

What Personal Information do we collect?
For the purpose of this Privacy Policy. ”Personal Information”
means any information relating to an identified or
identifiable individual. We obtain Personal Information
relating to you from various sources described below. Where
applicable, we indicate whether and why you must provide us
with your Personal Information, as well as the consequences of
failing to do so. If you do not provide Personal Information
When requested, you may not be able to benefit from some
features of our Services if that information is necessary to
provide you with that feature of our Services. There are two
basic categories of Personal Information we collect:
- Personal Information you choose to give us
- Personal Information we automatically collect When you use our Services
Personal Information You Choose to Give Us
When you interact with our Services, we collect the Personal
Information that you choose to share with us. For example, if
you purchase a subscription to applications's premium plans,
and/or sign up to create an account, you may provide us with
an email address and payment information. Remember that
creating an account is always optional - we never require you
to register or otherwise provide us any account-related
information to download or use our products. Additionally, if
you make a payment using a credit or debit card through the
Services, your Personal Information will be collected by a
third-party payment provider and not by us. If you make a
payment via PayPal, or in the Apple App Store or Google Play
Store, payments are processed by those third parties, and will
be subject to the third party's privacy policy, rather than
this Privacy Policy. It probably goes without saying, but well
say it anyway. If you contact us directly, we may receive
additional Personal Information about you. For example, when
you contact customer support, we receive the contents of
messages or attachments that you send to us, and other
information you choose to provide.
