What Does This Privacy Policy Include ?

This Privacy Policy covers our treatment of personally identifiable information ("Personal Information") that we gather when you sign up or are accessing or using our Services, but not to the practices of companies we don’t own or control, or people that we don’t manage. We gather various types of Personal Information from our users, as explained in detail below, and we use this Personal Information internally to improve our Services, including to personalize, provide, and improve our services, to allow you to set up a user account and profile, to contact you and allow other users to connect with you, to meet your requests for certain products and services, and to analyse how you use the Services for more relevant offerings to you. In certain cases, we may from time to time also share some Personal Information with third parties, but only as explained below.

As noted in the Terms of Use, we do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 13 or children under 13 may not register them as users of the products and Services. If you are under 13, please do not attempt to register for the Product or Services or send any personal information about yourself to us. We ask that our users not provide information about a child without first obtaining consent from that child’s parent or guardian (“Parental Consent”). If we learn we have unknowingly collected personal information directly from a child under 13 or about a child without Parental Consent, we will delete that information immediately. If you believe that a child under 13 may have provided us personal information or that information about a child was provided without Parental Consent, please connect with us at support@monocomsoft.com.

Will Monocomsoft Ever Change its Privacy Policy ?

In a bid to constantly improve our Services, we may need to change this Privacy Policy from time to time as well to suit the changing user requirements, but we will alert you to changes by placing a notice on the monocomsoft.com website, by sending you an email, and/or by some other means possible. Please note that if you’ve opted not to receive legal notice emails from us (or you haven’t provided us with your email address), those legal notices on website will still be enforceable to your use of the Services, and you are still responsible for reading and understanding them. If you use the Services post any changes to the Privacy Policy, it would constitute that you agree to all of the changes.

What Type of Information Does Monocomsoft Collect ?

Information You Share With Us

We receive and store any information you knowingly provide to us. For example, through the registration process and/or through your account settings, we may collect Personal Information such as your name, email address, gender, biography, home city, and your log-in credentials from social media or other third-party sites. If you provide your third-party account credentials to us or otherwise sign in to the Services through a third party site or service, you understand some content and/or information in those accounts (“Third Party Account Information”) may be auto-feed into your account with us, and that Third Party Account Information transmitted to our Services is covered by this Privacy Policy. Certain information may be required to register with us or to take maximum advantages of some of our unique features.

We may also get in touch with you if you’ve provided us the means to do so. For example, if you’ve given us your email address, we may send you promotional emails (if opted), or mail you about your use of the Services or announce new product or services updates or upgrades. Also, we may send a confirmation when you open an email from us. This confirmation helps us make our communications with you more enriching and improve our services too. If however we do email you, each marketing communication we send you will contain instructions permitting you to “opt-out” of receiving future promotional emails. Additionally, if at any point of time you wish not to receive any future marketing communications or you wish to have your name deleted from our mailing lists, please reach out to us at support@monocomsoft.com.

Automatic Collection Of Information

Whenever you access our product or Services, we automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser or device, which may include your IP address, geolocation data, device identification, “cookie” information, the type of browser and/or device you’re using to access our Products or Services, and the page or features you requested. “Cookies” are identifiers we transfer to your browser or device that allow us to recognize your browser or device and tell us how and when pages and features in our Services are visited and by how many people. It helps us tailor our products and services to your needs. At any time you may be able to change the preferences on your browser or device to prevent or limit your device’s acceptance of cookies, but this may restrict you from taking advantages of some of our features and services.

Our partners may also transmit cookies to your browser or device, when you click on ads that appear on the Services. Also, if you click on a link to a third-party website or service, a third party may also transmit cookies to you. This Privacy Policy does not cover the use of cookies by any third parties, and we aren’t responsible for their privacy policies and practices. We may not encourage users from accepting cookies on third party websites. Please be aware that cookies placed by third parties may continue to track your activities online even after you have left our Services, and those third parties may not honour “Do Not Track” requests you have set using your browser or device.

We may also use this data thus collected to customize and improve the quality of content for you that we think you might like, based on your usage patterns. We may also use it to improve the Services – for example, this data can tell us how often users use a particular feature of the Services, and we can use that knowledge to make the Services more interesting and useful to as many users as possible.

Location Information

Some of our Products and Services use location-based information, so in order for them to work, the Services need to know your location. You will be asked for access to geo-location services through the permission systems used by your mobile operating systems or browser. Whenever you open and use/access our apps on your mobile device or go to one of our Sites, we automatically receive and use the precise location information from your mobile device or browser (e.g., latitude and longitude) to tailor the Services to your current location (i.e., we may show you a list of nearby places and stories). This information is NOT shared with others.

It is important to reiterate that your real-time location is not shared on the monocomsoft apps or with any third party. If you write a story, scout, bookmark, like or otherwise provide content, users may infer that you have been to that location. Some content, like stories, may be time stamped and other users could use that information to analyse when you were at a place. However, note that stories can be posted when you aren’t at the place featured in your story.

Each of your stories using the Services is saved to your “Profile” which allows users to look back at all the locations you have interacted with since you created your Services account. You can delete any or all of your stories from your Profile page in the app.

Does Monocomsoft Share any of the Personal Information it Receives ?

We do not rent or sell or share your Personal Information in personally identifiable form to anyone, except as expressly provided below. We may share your Personal Information with third parties as described in this section:

Information that’s been de-identified: We may de-identify your Personal Information so that you are not identified as an individual or person, and provide that information to our partners. We may also provide aggregate usage information to our partners (or allow partners to collect that information from you), who may use such information to understand how often and in what ways people use our Products and Services, so that they, too, can provide you with a best online experience. However, we never disclose aggregate usage or de-identified information to any partner (or allow a partner to collect such information) in a manner that would identify you as an individual person.

Advertisers: We allow advertisers and/or merchant partners and affiliates(“Advertisers”) to choose the demographic information of users who will see their advertisements and/or promotional offers and you agree that we may provide any of the information we have collected from you in non-personally identifiable form to an Advertiser, in order for that Advertiser to select the appropriate audience for those advertisements and/or offers. For example, we might use the fact you are located in Delhi or elsewhere to show you ads or offers for local businesses, but we will not disclose such businesses who you are. Or, we might allow Advertisers to display their ads to users with similar usage patterns as yours, but we will not disclose usage information to Advertisers except in aggregate form, and not in a manner that may identify you personally. Note that if an advertiser asks us to show an ad to a certain audience or audience segment and you respond to that ad, the advertiser may conclude that you fit the description of the users they were trying to reach.

Affiliated Businesses: In certain situations, businesses or third-party websites we’re affiliated with may try to sell or provide products or services to you through or in connection with the Services you are using (either alone or jointly with us).

Unless we tell you differently, our agents do not have any right to use the Personal Information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us. Note that an “agent” may also be considered a “partner” in certain circumstances, and would be subject to the terms of the “Information that’s been de-identified” section in that regard.

Your user name may also be displayed to other users if and when you send messages or comments or upload images or videos through the Services and other users can contact you through messages and comments.
