Date of Last Revision: October 27, 2017.
Welcome to the web site or mobile application (as the case may
be) (collectively, the "Platform") of SocialBirds, LLC. (including its subsidiaries, affiliates,
agents, and service providers, collectively, "SocialBirds",
"we", "us" and/or "our"). This Platform is
operated by SocialBirds and has been created to provide information about our
company and our online platform designed to permit users to post a fundraising
campaign to accept monetary donations and our related services (together with
the Platform, the "Services") to our Services users and
visitors ("you", "your"). This Privacy Policy sets forth SocialBirds's policy with respect to information, including
personal data ("Personal Data") and other information that is
collected from users of or visitors to the Platform.
Information We Collect
When you interact with us through the Services, we may collect
Personal Data and other information from you, as further described below:
Personal Data That You Provide Through the Services: We collect Personal Data from you
(including, but not limited to, your name, email address and location) when you
voluntarily provide such information, such as when you contact us with inquiries,
respond to one of our surveys, register for access to the Services or use
certain Services. Wherever SocialBirds collects Personal Data we make an effort
to provide a link to this Privacy Policy.
We collect this Personal Data for the purposes of providing the
Services to you, as well as providing customer service, conducting research and
improving the Services. For more details on why we collect your Personal Data
and how we use it, please see the section below entitled “Our use of Personal
Data and other information.” While you are under no obligation to provide any
Personal Data, should you choose to withhold such information, we may not be
able to provide you with some or all of the Services.
By voluntarily providing us with Personal Data, you are
consenting to our use of it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you
provide Personal Data to the Services, you acknowledge and agree that such
Personal Data may be transferred from your current location to the offices and
servers of SocialBirds and the authorized third parties referred to herein
located in the United States.
Non-Personal Data: When you interact with SocialBirds
through the Services, we automatically receive and store certain
non-identifiable personal information. Such information, which is collected
passively using various technologies, cannot presently be used to specifically
identify you. Examples of this non-identifiable personal information include
the type of internet browser or mobile device you use, any website from which
you have come to the Services, your operating system, location data (which is
anonymous and where you log in through the Platform you will be asked if you
consent to the Services accessing your location, which can be updated at any
time in your device settings) (“Non-Personal Data”). SocialBirds may store such
Non-Personal Data itself or such information may be included in databases owned
and maintained by SocialBirds affiliates, agents or service providers. The
Services may use such Non-Personal Data to assist us in providing effective
Services and to collect broad demographic information for aggregate use.
Aggregated Data: In an ongoing effort to better understand and serve the
users of the Services, SocialBirds often conducts research on its customer
demographics, interests and behavior based on the Personal Data, Non-Personal
Data, and other information provided to us. This research may be compiled and
analyzed on a de-identified, aggregate basis, and SocialBirds may share this
aggregate data with its affiliates, agents, and business partners. This
aggregate information does not identify you personally. SocialBirds may also
disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe our services to
current and prospective business partners, and to other third parties for other
lawful purposes.
Location Information: When you use the Services to organize a
fundraising campaign, the Services may request that you provide your city or
town and state or province of residence. Please keep in mind that other users
of the Services may be able to view your city or town and state or province of
residence in connection with the campaign, if it is made available within SocialBirds's Public Search Directory. We may also use your
location information in an aggregate way, as described above in the
"Aggregated Data" section.
Social Networking Integrations: One of the special features of the
Services is that it allows you to enable or log into the Services via various
social networking services like Facebook or Twitter ("Social Networking
Service(s)"). By directly integrating these services, we make your online
experiences richer and more personalized. To take advantage of this feature, we
will ask you to log into or grant us permission via the relevant Social Networking
Service. When you add a Social Networking Services account to the Services or
log into the Services using your Social Networking Services account, we will
collect relevant information necessary to enable the Services to access that
Social Networking Service and your data contained within that Social Networking
Service. As part of such integration, the Social Networking Service will
provide us with access to certain information that you have provided to the
Social Networking Service, and we will use, store, and disclose such
information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. However, please remember
that the manner in which Social Networking Services use, store, and disclose
your information is governed by the policies of such third parties, and SocialBirds
shall have no liability or responsibility for the privacy practices or other
actions of any Social Networking Services that may be enabled within the
Services.
You may also have the option of posting your Services activities
to Social Networking Services when you access content through the Services (for
example, you may post to Facebook that you performed an activity on the
Platform); you acknowledge that if you choose to use this feature, your
friends, followers, and subscribers on any Social Networking Services you have
enabled will be able to view such activity.
Please visit the privacy policy of the relevant Social
Networking Service to find out more information about your rights and choices.
Mobile Services: The Services include certain services that are available
via a mobile device, including (i) the ability to
upload content to the Services via a mobile device, (ii) the ability to browse
the Platform and Services from a mobile device, and (iii) the ability to access
certain features through an application downloaded and installed on a mobile
device (collectively, the "Mobile Services"). To the extent you
access the Services through a mobile device, your wireless service carrier's
standard charges, data rates, and other fees may apply. In addition,
downloading, installing, or using certain Mobile Services may be prohibited or
restricted by your carrier, and not all Mobile Services may work with all
carriers or devices. By using the Mobile Services, you agree that we may
communicate with you regarding SocialBirds by SMS, MMS, text message, or other
electronic means to your mobile device and that certain information about your
usage of the Mobile Services may be communicated to us. In the event you change
or deactivate your mobile telephone number, you agree to promptly update your SocialBirds
account information to ensure that your messages are not sent to the person
that acquires your old number.
Third-Party Personal Data: The Services may also collect Personal
Data relating to third parties stored in your email and mobile device address
books, including, without limitation, names, email addresses, and phone numbers
(collectively, “Third-Party Personal Data”). The Services may request your
permission to access such Third-Party Personal Data.
Our Use of Personal Data and Other Information
SocialBirds uses the Personal Data you provide in a manner that
is consistent with this Privacy Policy. If you provide Personal Data for a
certain reason, we may use the Personal Data in connection with the reason for
which it was provided. For instance, if you contact us by email, we will use
the Personal Data you provide to answer your question or resolve your problem.
Also, if you provide Personal Data about yourself, or have provided (or
otherwise permitted the Services to access) any Third-Party Personal Data in
order to obtain access to or make use of particular features of the Services,
we will use your Personal Data and any such Third-Party Personal Data to
provide you with access to such services and to monitor your use of such
services.
SocialBirds may also use your Personal Data and other
Non-Personal Data collected through the Services to help us in providing the
Services, processing transactions, fulfilling requests for information,
receiving and sending communications, updating marketing lists, analyzing data,
providing support services, or other tasks from time to time.
SocialBirds may, with your consent, use your Personal Data to
contact you in the future to tell you about services we believe will be of interest
to you where permitted by applicable law. If we do so, each marketing
communication we send you will contain instructions permitting you to
"opt-out" of receiving future marketing communications. In addition,
if at any time you wish not to receive any future marketing communications or
you wish to have your name deleted from our mailing lists, please contact us as
indicated below.
We may also use your Personal Data and Third-Party Personal Data
to send communications relating to the Services, in accordance with applicable
laws. For example, we may send periodic emails to registered users of the
Services relating to their recent interactions with the Services, such as
donating to a campaign or "hearting" a campaign. Also, if you use any
feature of the Services permitting you to communicate with third parties (such
as to refer a third party to the Services or to communicate with them regarding
a campaign or a donation), either by submitting Third-Party Personal Data to
the Services or otherwise permitting the Services to automatically access
Third-Party Personal Data in your possession, you acknowledge and agree that
you have the authority of the relevant third party for us to access and use the
relevant Third-Party Personal Data and that you have notified these third
parties and informed them how their information is collected and used by SocialBirds
to provide the Services. We reserve the right to identify you as the person who
has made the referral in any messages that are sent to them. We may use Third-Party
Personal Data to (1) contact such third party using the Third-Party Personal
Data provided, and/or (2) provide you with an editable template message
designed to facilitate communication between you and such third party through
the Services. In addition to sending the foregoing communications, we may also
send reminders or related messages to you and to third parties on your behalf
from time to time where permitted by applicable law. In each case, any such
communications sent to third parties using Third-Party Personal Data will
provide a means to "opt-out" of receiving further communication of
the same nature.
If SocialBirds intends on using any Personal Data in any manner
or for any purpose that is not consistent with this Privacy Policy, we will obtain
your prior informed consent as required by applicable law.
Our Disclosure of Personal Data and Other Information
SocialBirds is not in the business of selling your information.
We consider this information to be a vital part of our relationship with you.
There are, however, certain circumstances in which we may share your Personal
Data with certain third parties without further notice to you, as set forth
below:
Business Transfers: As we develop our business, we might sell or buy
businesses or assets. In the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization,
dissolution or similar event, Personal Data may be part of the transferred
assets.
Agents, Consultants and Related Third Parties: SocialBirds, like many businesses,
sometimes hires other companies to perform certain business-related functions.
Examples of such functions include mailing information and maintaining
databases. When we employ another entity to perform a function of this nature,
we only provide them with the information that they need to perform their
specific function and require them to only use the information for the purposes
for which it was collected.
Legal Requirements: SocialBirds may disclose your Personal Data if required to
do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) comply with a legal obligation, (ii) protect and defend
the rights or property of SocialBirds, (iii) act in urgent circumstances to
protect the personal safety of users of the Services or the public, or (iv)
protect against legal liability.
