information, as such terms are defined below.

in this Privacy Statement and amended from time to time. If we decide to change our privacy
practices, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always kept informed of what
data we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it. Please check this
page for changes from time to time to make sure you are aware of our latest privacy practices.

​

We are committed to respecting your privacy. We recognize that when you choose to provide us
with information about yourself, you trust us to act in a responsible manner. That's why we have
put a policy in place to protect your personal information. You may always use our Services
without giving us any personal information. Please read on for more details about our privacy
practices.

​

OUR COLLECTION AND USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Personal information is data that can be used to uniquely identify or contact a single person. You
may choose to provide personal information to us when you use our Services. Because we
change our features from time to time, the options you must provide us with personal

information also may change, but here are some examples of situations in which you may decide
to provide personal information to us:
• Contacting us for any reason, such as by email, including for technical support or
customer service;
• When making a payment; and
• Using our Services when personal information is required for use or participation

The information we collect from you will vary depending on which of our Services you are
using. However, the information you provide generally may include the following:
• Name, email address, username, and in some cases payment information (including credit
card numbers collected through WIX, a secure third-party payment processing company
).
• Information about your activity on and interaction with our Services (such as your IP
address, the type of device or browser you use, your geolocation, and your actions on the
site); and
• Communications you send to us (for example, when you ask for support, send us
questions or comments, or report a problem).

Because we directly ask you to provide personal information in these cases, you often will be
able to tell from our specific requests what types of information we receive from you.
We collect this information for reasons such as:
• To understand your needs and provide you with better service;
• For statistical purposes and analysis for management purposes in order to administer or
improve our products and services;
• Internal record keeping, and administrative purposes, and to inform you about our events,
services or products, or other related information that we think would be of interest to
you, as explained above;
• To communicate marketing messages, newsletters, and details of our business or the
businesses of carefully selected third parties which we think may be of interest to you by
post or email, or similar technology (you can inform us at any time if you no longer
require marketing communications); and

• From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research
purposes or to customize the website and mobile app according to your interests

​

OUR COLLECTION AND USE OF NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION
We also collect non-personal information data in a form that does not permit direct association
with any specific individual. We may collect, use and process non-personal information for
service-improving purposes. For example, when you use our Services, we may collect data from
and about the “commercial electronic mail messages” and “transactional messages” (as such
terms are defined in the CAN-SPAM Act (15 U.S.C. 7702 et. seq.) that are sent to your email
accounts. We collect such commercial transactional messages so that we can better understand
the behavior of the senders of such messages, and better understand new spam techniques to
improve our products and services.

​

INFORMATION COLLECTED BY AUTOMATED MEANS
We may obtain certain personal and non-personal information by automated means when you
use our Services. The type of information we collect by automated means may vary, but
generally includes technical information about your devices, such as IP address or another device
identifier. The information we collect also may include usage information and statistics about
your interaction with our Services. That information may include the specific page of our web
pages or the mobile app that you visited, page views, time spent on a page, number of clicks,
platform type, and other information about how you used our Service.
In cases where you use a mobile device to access our Service, we will receive information about
the location of your device. In some cases, even if you are not using a mobile device, information
