Privacy Policy
Your privacy is critically important to us. At PlayNice.ly we have a few fundamental principles:
- We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
- We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
- We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.
Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:
(Note, we have based this document upon Automattic's Privacy Policy, which is available under the Creative Commons Sharealike license, which means you’re more than welcome to steal it and repurpose it for your own use, just make sure to replace references to us with ones to you, and if you want Automattic would appreciate a link to WordPress.com somewhere on your site. They have spent a lot of money and time on the below, and other people shouldn’t need to do the same.)
If you have questions about accessing or correcting your personal data please contact our support team.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, PlayNice.ly collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. PlayNice.ly’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how PlayNice.ly’s visitors use its website. From time to time, PlayNice.ly may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
PlayNice.ly also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. PlayNice.ly only discloses logged in user IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to PlayNice.ly’s websites choose to interact with PlayNice.ly in ways that require PlayNice.ly to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that PlayNice.ly gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a PlayNice.ly account to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with PlayNice.ly are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, PlayNice.ly collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with PlayNice.ly. PlayNice.ly does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
PlayNice.ly may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, PlayNice.ly may monitor the number of items, or the number of emails being sent in order to plan for future development. PlayNice.ly may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, PlayNice.ly does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
PlayNice.ly discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on PlayNice.ly’s behalf or to provide services available at PlayNice.ly’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using PlayNice.ly’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. PlayNice.ly will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, PlayNice.ly discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when PlayNice.ly believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of PlayNice.ly, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of PlayNice.ly and have supplied your email address, PlayNice.ly may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with PlayNice.ly and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. PlayNice.ly takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
