What Information About Me Is Collected and Stored?

We collect two basic types of information from you in conjunction with your use of the App, personal information and non- personal information. Personal information is information that you supply to us, as described more fully below, i.e., when you use our Services, obtain a subscription, complete a survey, register on the App, upload content, participate in a community, or provide your e-mail address. Personal information is any information that can individually identify you and includes, among other things, your name, e-mail address, telephone number, postal address, credit card, billing and contact information. Non-personal information includes information that does not personally identify you, but it may include tracking and usage information about your location, demographics, use of the App and the Internet.

Personal Information

As a general matter, you can browse the App without submitting your personal information to us. However, there are a number of circumstances in which you may supply us or our agents with your personal information.

We are concerned about ensuring the security of your Personal Information. We exercise great care in providing secure transmission of your information from your device to our servers.

Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose your Personal Information to you.

What Happens When I Link To or From Another App?

This App may contain links to other Apps operated by third parties. Please be advised that the practices described in this Privacy Policy for Indie Film Gear do not apply to information gathered through these other Apps. We are not responsible for the actions and privacy policies of third parties and other Apps.

Governing Law

This App is published in the United States. We attempt to protect the Personal Information of all users of our App and we attempt to comply with local data protection and consumer rights laws to the extent they may apply to the Indie Film gear

services, but our App is located and targeted to United States citizens and our policies are directed at compliance with those laws.

Assignment

We may change our ownership or corporate Indie Film Gear while providing the App. We may also sell certain assets associated with the App. As a result, please be aware that in such event we may transfer some or all of your information to a Indie Film Gear acquiring all or part of our assets or to another Indie Film Gear with which we have merged. Under such circumstances we would, to the extent possible, require the acquiring party to follow the practices described in this Privacy Policy, as it may be amended from time to time. Nevertheless, we cannot promise that an acquiring Indie Film Gear or the merged Indie Film Gear will have the same privacy practices or treat your information the same as described in this Privacy Policy.

Changes to This Policy

As our App continues to develop, we may add new services and features to our App. In the event that these additions affect our Privacy Policy, this document will be updated appropriately. We will post those changes prominently so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information and whether we will disclose it to anyone. We do, however, recommend that you read this Privacy Policy each time you use our App in case you missed our notice of changes to the Privacy Policy. We will not, however, materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of Personal Information we have previously collected from you without your express consent.
