Your privacy and security are important to us. This privacy policy applies to all information received by GigCrunch, online and offline, including through our website at https://gigcrunch.app (“the Website”), any related sites or online products or services offered by GigCrunch, as well as via any electronic, written or oral communications, including surveys offered by GigCrunch (collectively, “the Services”). Please read this Privacy Policy carefully to understand how we will use and protect your Personal Information. If you do not accept this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Services.
1.1 PERSONAL INFORMATION VS. NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION
Our primary goal in collecting information from you is to provide you with an efficient and helpful experience while using the Website and Services. To do so, the Website collects two types of information about you: Personal Information and Non-Personal Information.
“Personal Information” refers to information that can uniquely identify an individual person. This information could include your first and last name or your email address. While we do not currently collect or retain information submitted on the Website’s calculator, we may do so in the future, which may be considered Personal Information. To the extent you provide us contact information, it is important to keep us updated with your most current contact information. If you have submitted information to us or used the Services, you may ask us in writing via email at tech@gigcrunch.app to have any information connected to you deleted, updated or corrected; however, because we track aggregated, anonymized data, you may not be able to delete such aggregated or anonymized information. Note that we may retain changed or deleted information for archival or other purposes.
“Non-Personal Information” refers to information that does not by itself identify you or a specific individual, such as technical information about the way you interact with our Website or information you may input on the Website that is not personally identifiable. We may collect Non-Personal Information through any of the methods discussed above as well as automatically through the use of industry standard technologies discussed further below.
1.2 INFORMATION COLLECTED THROUGH TECHNOLOGY
We may collect information from visitors to the Website regarding their use of the Website and Services, which may include the referring URL, your IP address, your browser, the location of your server and the pages of the Website that you viewed during your visit. Some of this information is gathered through the following technologies:
Cookies and Other Technology. To improve your user experience, we may use cookies. “Cookies” are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. Generally, cookies work by assigning to your computer a unique number that has no meaning outside of the Website. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually configure your browser to prevent this. Not accepting cookies may make certain features of the Website unavailable to you.
We may also use services hosted by third parties, such as Google Analytics, to assist in providing the Services. Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how users use the Services. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the Website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on their servers. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the Services, compile reports on website activity for us and provide other services relating to website activity and Internet usage. For more information and to opt out of Google’s collection of analytics information, please visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
2.1 USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION AND USAGE INFORMATION
We use Personal Information and Non-Personal Information, as disclosed in this Privacy Policy, to process your provided information, to populate our calculator, to provide the Services, to communicate with you and to send you informational and promotional materials. In addition, we may use Personal Information and Non-Personal Information to learn more about our users so we can improve our products, our Services and our communication. Specific examples of how we may use your information that we collect are as follows:
We may also create anonymous data records from Personal Information by excluding information that make the data personally identifiable to you. We may aggregate such anonymized data from multiple users in addition to Non-Personal Information. We may use this anonymous or aggregated data to analyze requests and usage patterns to improve the Services and Website, to provide additional Services or information, and to generate reports that we publish on the Website or elsewhere.
2.2 DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We do not sell, trade or rent your Personal Information collected on the Website to others. From time to time, we may disclose your Personal Information to our third-party service providers, such as for the purpose of sending marketing emails. These third parties may not use your Personal Information other than to provide the services requested by us.
From time to time, we may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide Personal Information to the appropriate governmental authorities. We will disclose Personal Information upon receipt of a court order or subpoena or to cooperate with a law enforcement investigation. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful.
We may disclose Non-Personal Information to our users or to third parties.
2.3 OPTING OUT
If you have provided us contact information, we may from time to time send you email or other communications regarding the Website or Services. You may “opt out” or unsubscribe from our newsletters and non-transactional related emails and disclosures to third parties for promotional purposes by following the unsubscribe instructions in any email you receive from us or by sending an email to tech@gigcrunch.app.
3.1 OUR SECURITY MEASURES
Although GigCrunch uses reasonable efforts to safeguard the security of your Personal Information, transmissions made on or through the Internet are vulnerable to attack and cannot be guaranteed to be secure.
3.2 THIRD-PARTY LINKS
The Website contains links to third parties who may collect information directly from you. Each of the websites linked from the Website have separate privacy policies and data collection practices, independent of GigCrunch. GigCrunch has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions and is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites, nor does GigCrunch make any warranties or representations about the contents, products or services offered on such websites or the security of any information you provide to them.
4.1 CHANGES TO OUR POLICY
This Privacy Policy is effective with respect to any Personal Information collected on or after the effective date first set forth above. GigCrunch reserves the right to modify or supplement this Privacy Policy at any time, including but not limited to when we implement changes to our Services. If we make any changes, we will update the Website and Privacy Policy to include such change and notice thereof. Please review this Privacy Policy often to review any changes that may affect your use of the Website. Your continued use of the Website once the revised Privacy Policy has been posted on the Website affirms your agreement to such changes.
4.2 CHILDREN, PARENTAL CONSENT POLICY
The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act imposes certain requirements on websites that are directed toward children under 13 or that knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13. Our Website is not intended for children under 13 years of age. No one under age 13 may provide any personal information to or on the Website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, do not use or provide any information on the Website, use any of the interactive features of this Website, or provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, or email address. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at tech@gigcrunch.app.
