We may collect several types of data and information from and about our Visitors, Customers and their End-Users. In this section, we describe the categories of information which we may collect, and the applicable circumstances under which such collection is performed.

3.1 First – What is Personal Information?

Personal information refers to individually identifiable information, namely information that identifies an individual or may with reasonable efforts or together with additional information we have access to, enable the identification of an individual, or may be of private or sensitive nature information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. Identification of an individual also includes association of such individual with a persistent identifier such as a name, an identification number, persistent cookie identifier etc.

Personal information does not include information that has been anonymized or aggregated so that it can no longer be used to identify a specific natural person.

3.2  We collect personal information from you when you use or interact with our Services

We collect personal information from you and any devices (including mobile devices) you use when you: use, interact or access our Services, register for an account with us, provide us information on a web form or other text field within our Site, update or add information to your account, or through correspondence you and we conduct with each other.

 More specifically we collect and use the following categories and types of information in the following respective circumstances:

Personal information Customers and/or Visitors provide us actively and voluntarily when they use or interacts with our Services:

• Contact information such as Customers and/or Visitors name, company number, signing person name and position, email and physical addresses, and telephone number, all when such Customers and/or Visitors fill our online form or register for an account with us or when they update their accounts details. At registration Customers also provide us with a list of Apps in which they would like to implement the Game of Whales SDK.

 Personal information we automatically obtain when Customers, End Users and/or Visitors  use or interact with our Services:

This is information we obtain through the Services when Customers, End Users and/or Visitors access or interact with the Services, which is derived, learned, or detected as a result of such access and/or interaction. Keep in mind - Most devices allow you to control or disable the use of certain collectable information including location services, in the device's settings menu.

We perform such automatic collection through: (i) use of cookies, web beacons, unique identifiers, and similar technologies, with respect to Visitors and Customers; and (ii) unique Technical Identifiers (as defined below), with respect to End Users. Such means of collection allow us to collect information about the pages and screens Visitors and Customers view, the links they click, End Users’ use of and engagement within the relevant App, and other actions you take when using our Services, when you interact with our advertisements or email content, as further detailed in section ‎10.

Please take into consideration that certain portions of such abovementioned information may also be collected from End User devices or software, when the App is running in the background, i.e. when it has been launched but not used.  

For more information about our use of these technologies, and how to control them, see our Cookies Policy.

Keep in mind - Most mobile devices and auxiliary software, allow user to control or disable the use of certain collectable information including location services, by any application, in the device's settings menu.

We generally classify this type of automatically collected personal information under the following categories:

“Engagement Information”: this refers to information relating to the  ad campaigns we run, Visitors and Customers interaction with our Site and with the SaaS, and End User actions and interaction within the relevant App, such as: clicks on ads, ad impressions viewed, audiences or segments to which an ad campaign is attributed, the type of ads and the webpage or mobile applications from which such ads were displayed, webpages viewed on our Site, HTTP referral, downloads and installations of Applications, End User’s clicks when using the App, End User duration of use of the App, End User proficiency of use of the App, in-App purchases, etc.

“Technical Identifiers”: this refers to various unique identifiers that generally only identify a computer, device, browser or Application. For example, IP address (which may also provide general location information), user agent, IDFA (identifier for advertisers), Android ID (in Android devices); Google Advertiser ID, unique user ID and other similar unique identifiers.

“Technical Information”: this refers to technical information related to a mobile device or computer, such as: browser type, device type and model, operating system (iOS/Android etc.), system language, memory, OS version, Wi-Fi status, time stamp and zone, device motion parameters and carrier.

End-User Data collected in such manner includes:

Personal information collected from other sources

We may collect personal information concerning you, from third parties who have assured us that they have obtained your consent for such provision of information. For example, we may collect and use demographic and other information that is publicly available in an applicable jurisdiction, additional contact information, credit/check information, and information from credit bureaus, as allowed by applicable national laws.

3.3 Please Note - While End User Data does not generally contain any information that directly identifies an individual, such as names, addresses, credit cards or other similarly regulated financial information, health information, or any other type of sensitive personal information, we acknowledge that under certain jurisdictions the End User Data we do receive when a Customer uses the Services may be deemed personal data as it is associated with a Technical Identifier, and therefore, where applicable, will be treated as such.

5. DO NOT TRACK

We do not currently commit to responding to your browsers’ ‘Do Not Track’ signals with respect to our websites, in part, because no common industry standard for ‘Do Not Track’ has been adopted by regulators, including no consistent standard of interpreting a user’s intent. We are committed to monitoring the developments around ‘Do Not Track’ and the implementation of a standard.
