Privacy Policy
Effective Date: September 9, 2016
Welcome to Snypr! Snypr, Inc. (“Snypr,” “we,” “us” or “our”) provides creative, competitive and connected training exercises and virtual games for athletes, and fundraisers for teams, clubs and charities, through our mobile application(s) (each, an “App”) and related information through our website located at snypr.com (the App(s) and our website collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy is designed to tell you about how we may collect, use and disclose information, including Personally Identifiable Data (as defined below), from visitors to the Services. By using the Snypr Services, you consent to the collection, use, storage and disclosure of such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
If you are under the age of 13, your parent or guardian must provide consent to your use of the Service and the collection of Personally Identifiable Data from you and for your use of the Services before you sign up to use the Services. Please see the section below titled “For Children Under 13 and Their Parents or Guardians.”
Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy before using the Services or submitting any information to us through the Services. This Privacy Policy is incorporated into the App’s Terms of Service.
For Children Under 13 and Their Parents or Guardians:
Children under the age of 13 (each, a “child” and collectively, “children”) may register as Users of the Services after we have obtained verifiable parental consent in accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”).
We ask prospective Users of the Services to provide a username and birth date as the first steps in the registration process. For each prospective User under the age of 13, we then collect the email address of the child’s parent or guardian so that we may give the parent or guardian notice of our information collection, use and sharing practices and obtain verifiable parental consent for the child’s use of the Services. We do not save or store any information submitted by or collected from a child except for the child’s username and email address of the child’s parent or guardian until we have obtained verifiable parental consent from the parent or guardian.
In our follow-up communication with parents and guardians, we provide via email a link to this Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which describes the types of information we collect from our users and how we use, store and share such information. We also provide information on how a parent or guardian can give consent for the collection, use and disclosure of a child’s personal information (as defined by COPPA) by providing a credit card number and certain validating information.
The types of information we collect from children are the same as the types of information collected from other Users, as described in this Privacy Policy. A child’s username, number of reps completed on a regional and national basis will be publicly viewable by Users if the User is in the top 100 on the leaderboard. No other Personally Identifiable Data from the child will be visible or shared through the Services.
We will not require children to disclose more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the Services. A parent or guardian may review a child’s personal information collected by or through the Services at any time and request the deletion of such information or stop the collection of further information from the child by contacting Snypr at support@snypr.com. We do not disclose a child’s Personally Identifiable Data to third parties, unless described in this Policy or if such third parties provide services or functionality that enable us to provide the Services.
Information We Collect:
Personally Identifiable Data. “Personally Identifiable Data” means information that alone or when in combination with other information may be used to readily identify or contact you, such as your name, email address, zip code, gender, or credit card information, or other information about you that is directly linked to Personally Identifiable Data.
Usage Data. “Usage Data” means certain information that we, our third-party service providers may collect through a variety of technologies, such as cookies and web beacons, that may automatically or passively collect information when you visit or interact with the Services. Usage Data may include, but is not limited to, your IP address, time spent on the Services, the type of browser, device or operating system you use or the URL that referred you to the Service.
If we associate Usage Data with your Personally Identifiable Data, we will treat the combined information as Personally Identifiable Data. In accordance with COPPA, we consider persistent identifiers that can be used to recognize a user over time and across different sites as a child’s personal information.
How We Gather Information:
Information Collected Directly From Users and Sponsors. We collect certain Personally Identifiable Data when you register for the Services, and we collect Personally Identifiable Data from sponsors (“Sponsors”) when they sponsor athletes participating in a fundraising challenge.
Users. To register for the Services as a User, you will need to provide us with Personally Identifiable Data including your email address, gender and birthday. We will also ask for a username to associate with your account. Because usernames are publicly viewable by all users of our App if you are in the top 100 on a leaderboard, we advise that you select a username that does not include your first and last name or online contact information, such as identifiers that you use in connection with your email account or instant messaging services.
Sponsors. To register for the Services as a Sponsor, you will need to provide us with Personally Identifiable Data including your name, email address, address, and pledge information.
Information from Customer Service. We may collect Personally Identifiable Data and Usage Data through your communications with our customer service team.
Cookies, Automatic Data Collection, and Related Technologies. When you access or use the Services, we may engage, receive, collect and store certain types of information through automatic data collection tools including cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, embedded web links and similar technologies. These technologies may collect information including, but not limited to, your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, the date and time that you use the Services, referring/exit pages and URLs, number of clicks, cookies that may uniquely identify your browser and information about your mobile device. Cookies are small text files placed in visitors’ web browsers to store their preferences or provide certain functionality. Most browsers allow you to block and delete cookies. Certain features of the Services may not work properly if you block or delete cookies.
By using the Services, you are authorizing us to gather, parse and retain data, including Personally Identifiable Data, related to the provision of the Services. We will retain Personally Identifiable Data (as defined by COPPA) collected from children only as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected. Parents or guardians may contact Snypr at support@snypr.com to review any such Personally Identifiable Data that we have collected, and may request that we update, delete or stop collecting such Personally Identifiable Data.
How We Use Your Information:
