To better serve our users, the Company collects two basic types of information:
Personally identifiable information: This is information that personally identifies one individual from another (for example, names, e-mail addresses and other contact information).

Aggregate user and tracking information: This information gives us insights on how the users are utilizing the Application.

In the event that the Company goes out of business or becomes insolvent or bankrupt all user information, including personally identifiable information, would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You understand and agree that such a transfer may occur, and that any party that acquires the Company or any of its assets may continue to use your personally identifiable information as set forth in this policy.

We may also disclose any information we have about you (including your identity) if we determine that such disclosure is necessary to satisfy applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request. We may share any information that you provide to us when we have your consent to do so, or when we need to share it in order to provide the information or service you requested.
