General Privacy Policy for the Flexspeak, Inc. – last updated on the 21st of April of 2023.
California residents – please refer to “Privacy Notice for California Residents” below.
Flexspeak, Inc. is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Should we ask you to provide certain information by which you can be identified when using our websites, our services or our products (below we use the word “Services” for easier review), you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy, unless we clearly state otherwise to you in connection with any particular Service.
This Privacy Policy outlines how Flexspeak, Inc. generally handles your personal data. In connection with some of our Services, we will give you more specific information about our handling of your personal data, and we will, where appropriate, ask for your consent before handling your personal data. At the end of this policy, there is information on how to contact us if you have any questions or if you think anything is unclear.
Please note that this policy only covers Flexspeak, Inc.’s use of personal data. Sometimes, other companies buy or license our technology and use it to handle personal data as part of their service offering. In such cases you should refer to the privacy policies of those respective businesses.
Depending on which Services you use, we process different kinds of information from or about you.
Please note that some of our Services may handle types of personal data that are not listed in this privacy policy. In those cases, we will however always notify you clearly in connection with your use of such Service.
Personal data and other information you (and others) give us. We collect the information that you (and others) give us when using our Services. For example:
Personal data and other information which is automatically collected about you when you use our services.
We also collect information automatically when you are connected to our Services. Depending on how you access and use our Services, we collect information such as:
Third parties may also collect information about you through the Services, or receive information collected about you through the Services, as described below.
We use the information as set out below and to provide our Services to you and our partners.
Please note that some of our Services may use personal data in ways which are not described in this privacy policy. In those cases, we will however always notify you clearly in connection with your use of such Service.
We use the information we collect to provide you with our Services. For example, we use this information to:
We also use the information that we collect to understand, develop and improve our Services. For example, we use the information to:
We use the information that we collect to send you promotional messages and content and otherwise market to you on and offer our Services. We also use this information to measure how users respond to our marketing efforts. If you would like to opt out of receiving marketing emails, then you can always do so by follow the instructions implemented in every such promotional message.
We use the personal data that we collect to help promote safety and security on and off our Services, such as by investigating suspicious activity or breaches of our terms or policies and protecting our or others’ rights or property.
To provide and support our Services, information that we have about you is shared in certain circumstances. The following can see information about you when you and others use our Services.
Please note that, in connection to some of our Services, we may share personal data in ways which are not described in this privacy policy. In those cases, we will however always notify you clearly in connection with your use of such Service.
You can interact with third-party content, games, apps and other experiences through our Services. We may share information about you with these partners so they can provide you with the experiences that you've requested.
We share the information that we collect with vendors, service providers, researchers and other partners, who work at our direction to support the Services (such as hosting our Services, fulfilling orders, facilitating payments, analysing the way people use our Services, processing credit card payments, providing customer service or sending electronic communications for us).
In the event that the ownership of Flexspeak, Inc. (or any portion of our assets) changes as a result of a merger, acquisition or in the event of a bankruptcy, information from or about you or your device may be transferred to another company.
We share information with law enforcement or in response to legal requests in the circumstances outlined in Section 7 below.
We also share de-identified or aggregate data with others. “De-identified data” means information where we have removed identifiable data such as your name and other data that could reasonably be used to identify you. “Aggregate data” is data that has been combined with other data so that it doesn’t identify any specific person. For example, we provide developers with aggregated statistics about the number of people from a particular region that use our Services, so developers can create content tailored for people in that market.
Some of the content, marketing and functionality on our Services may be provided by third parties that are not affiliated with us. For example, we work with companies that help us provide content within the Service that you purchased.
Please note that some of our Services may be integrated with third party products or services in ways which are not described in this privacy policy. In those cases, we will however always notify you clearly in connection with your use of such Service.
We store data that identifies you until it is no longer necessary for us to do so, for example when you delete an account with us. This is a case-by-case determination that depends on things such as the nature of the data, why it is collected and processed, and relevant legal or operational retention needs. For example, we may retain certain purchase information for accounting and tax purposes even after you have deleted your account.
When you delete an account with us, we delete or anonymize the data you provided us with and the data we collected during your use of the Services. Neither you nor we will be able to restore such deleted or anonymised data.
We share information globally, both internally within the Flexspeak, Inc. and externally with our partners to fully provide the Services you are entitled to receive based on the Service you have purchased or subscribed to and/or otherwise are entitled to receive. Information controlled by Flexspeak, Inc. will be transferred or transmitted to, or stored and processed in the United States, China and/or other countries outside of where you live for the purposes as described in this policy. These data transfers are necessary for us to globally operate and provide our Services to you.
If we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will provide notice of such changes as appropriate, such as by sending you an email notification to the address that you've provided, and/or providing notice through the Services. If we make an administrative change, we may update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this Privacy Policy.
