We collect this information:
Certain web transactions may also involve you calling us or our calling you. Please be aware that we may monitor and in some cases record such calls for staff training or quality assurance purposes.
Now or in the future you may also be able to provide Photos, notes, audio and video recordings, text, data, information and other input or any other content linked, posted, and/or submitted by you or other users in connection with the Photo Services to be published or displayed (hereinafter, "posted") on the Site or the Applications, or transmitted to other users of the Simple Booth Services or third parties (collectively, "User Content"). Your User Content is posted on and transmitted to others at your own risk. We cannot control the actions of other users of the Site, the Applications, the Photo Services or the other Simple Booth Services, with whom your User Content is shared. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that your User Content will not be viewed, downloaded or shared by unauthorized persons.
The technologies we use for automatic data collection may include:
Your web browser may offer you a “Do Not Track” option, which allows you to signal to operators of websites and web applications and services (including behavioral advertising services) that you do not wish such operators to track certain of your online activities over time and across different websites. We do not honor any web browser “Do Not Track” signals or other mechanisms that provide you with the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of personally identifiable information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services.
We may use or partner with other third party companies, agents or contractors for various purposes in connection with our business and operations (“Service Providers”), including, billing and payments, relationship building, the marketing and growth of our business and the performance of services on our behalf, such as gathering and analyzing information and the provision of services to you. In the course of performing these responsibilities and providing such services, these other companies may have access to your information. We may also share information, including your information, with these Services Providers in order to enable them to perform these responsibilities and to provide these services. Many Services Providers have adopted their own privacy policies, which are not subject to control by Simple Booth. You should always review the policies of these Service Providers to make sure that you are comfortable with the ways in which they collect, use, maintain, protect and disclose your information.
The Service Providers may also transmit cookies to your computer or device, when you click on ads that appear on or through the Simple Booth Services. Also, if you click on a link to a third party website, such third party may also transmit cookies to you. Please be aware that cookies placed by third parties may continue to track your activities online even after you have left all of the Simple Booth Services, and those third parties may not honor “Do Not Track” requests you have set using your web browser.
The Simple Booth Services may use the Google AdWords and other remarketing service to advertise on third party websites (including Google) to previous visitors to the Site. It could mean that we advertise to previous visitors who haven’t completed a task on the Site, for example using the contact form to make an enquiry. This could be in the form of an advertisement on the Google search results page, or a site in the Google Display Network. Service Providers, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on someone’s past visits to the Site. Of course, any data collected will be used in accordance with this privacy policy, Google’s privacy policy, or the privacy policy of other remarketing services used by Simple Booth.
You can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ad Preferences page, and if you want to, you can opt out of interest-based advertising entirely by cookie settings or permanently using a browser plugin.
DoubleClick may use Google Analytics remarketing codes to log when users view specific pages or take specific actions on a website. This allows them to provide targeted advertising in the future. If you do not wish to receive this type of advertising from DoubleClick in the future, you can opt out using the DoubleClick opt-out page or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.
Google has additional information available about its Remarketing Privacy Guidelines, Policies, and Restrictions on its website.
We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any personal information:
The information that we collect automatically is statistical data and does not include personal information, but we may maintain it or associate it with personal information we collect in other ways or receive from third parties or you provide to us. It helps us to improve the Simple Booth Services and to deliver a better and more personalized service, including enabling us to:
We may store any information that we collect (personal or otherwise) ourselves or in databases owned and maintained by our affiliates, agents or service providers. If you use the Site, the Applications, the Photo Services or the other Simple Booth Services outside of the United States, information that we collect about you may be transferred to servers inside the United States and maintained indefinitely, which may involve the transfer of information out of countries located in the European Economic Area and other parts of the world unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law or agreed by Simple Booth and you. By allowing Simple Booth to collect information about you, you hereby consent to such transfer and processing of such information without restriction. We may also store some information locally on your computer or other devices. For example, we may store information as local cache so that you can open the Applications and the Site and view content faster.
Although users from all over the world may access the Site, the Applications, the Photo Services and the other Simple Booth Services, keep in mind that no matter where you live or where you happen to use our services, you consent to us processing and transferring information in and to the United States and other countries whose data-protection and privacy laws may offer fewer protections than those in your home country.
Simple Booth uses your Photos to provide the Photo Services and other related ancillary purposes. You can withdraw your consent to the use of your photos at any time and we will delete your photo(s) upon your request by emailing us the unique link to your photo with your request to privacy@simplebooth.com.
Simple Booth also uses your facial features in the mobile Application to provide the Photo Services. The mobile Application uses geometric points for facial features (such as the eyes, nose, chin or whole face) to determine where to place a digital prop that you have selected with intent to put on your face. The facial data itself is not uploaded to our servers. It is instead converted into placement information for the specific digital prop.
At no time does Simple Booth use the facial features of participants in Photos for face recognition. The Application does not use any face recognition technology or other technical means for the processing of biometric data for the unique identification of participants in Photos.
We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual, without restriction.
We may disclose personal information that we collect or you provide as described in this privacy policy:
In addition, we may upload to, or disclose any or all of your Photos on, the Site or any of our social and other networks, including Facebook and Twitter.
We may also disclose your personal information:
We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:
We do not control third parties' collection or use of your information to serve interest-based advertising. You may be able to opt out of receiving personalized advertisements from companies who are members of the Network Advertising Initiative or who subscribe to the Digital Advertising Alliance's Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising. For more information about this practice and to understand your options, please visit: https://www.aboutads.info and https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. You may also use TRUSTe's Preference Manager at https://preferences-mgr.truste.com.
You may send us an e-mail at privacy@simplebooth.com to request access to, change, correct or delete any personal information that you have provided to us. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.
If you delete your User Content from any of the Simple Booth Services (including any Photos or other User Content stored in the cloud), copies of your Photos and User Content may remain viewable in cached and archived pages, or might have been copied or stored by other users of the servers, the Site, the Applications, the Photo Services or the other Simple Booth Services. Proper access and use of information provided on or through the Site, the Applications, the Photo Services or the other Simple Booth Services, including User Content, are governed by the Terms.
California Civil Code Section § 1798.83 permits users of the Site or the Applications that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an e-mail to privacy@simplebooth.com.
We will only retain your personal information, including your Photos, in a form that permits us to identify you, for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for. We will retain and use your personal data as necessary to satisfy any legal, accounting or reporting requirements, to resolve disputes or to enforce our agreements and rights. To dispose of personal information, we may anonymize it, delete it or take other appropriate steps. Personal information may persist in copies made for backup and business continuity purposes for additional time.
We understand that the security of your personal information is important. We provide reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security controls to protect your personal information. However, despite our efforts, no security controls are 100% effective and Simple Booth cannot ensure or warrant the security of your personal information. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Site.
The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of the Site and/or or the use of the Applications, the Photo Services or the other Simple Booth Services, you are responsible for creating a secure password and keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. We urge you to be careful about giving out information in public areas of the Site and the Applications. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Site or the Applications.
It is our policy to post any changes we make to our privacy policy on this page with a notice that the privacy policy has been updated on the home pages of the Site or the Applications for at least 30 days. If we make material changes to how we treat our users' personal information that are materially less protective than provided in this policy, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you by e-mail to the e-mail address specified in your account and/or through a notice on the home pages of the Site and to attempt to get your consent to the changes. The date the privacy policy was last updated is identified above. You are responsible for ensuring that we have an up-to-date active and deliverable e-mail address for you, and for periodically visiting the Site and this privacy policy to check for any changes. Like our Terms, of which this privacy policy is a part, your use of the Site, the Applications, and/or continued use of the Photo Services or any of the other Simple Booth Services after our efforts to contact you means that you agree to be bound by such changes.
The policies indicated in this privacy policy will remain effective, even if the Terms and any other agreement between us are terminated and you are no longer using the Site, the Applications, the Photo Services or any the other Simple Booth Services.
To ask questions or comment about this privacy policy and our privacy practices or need to reach us for any other reason, you may contact us by e-mail at privacy@simplebooth.com.
