Privacy Policy

  1. Introduction.

Lovebuzz (“Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”), is the operator of the website: ———————/ and its subdomains (“Website”), the application Lovebuzz (the “App”) and any related features (collectively, the “Services”).

The company is committed to protecting your privacy rights and making our practices regarding the processing of Personal Information (as defined below) more transparent and fair.

This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) was designed to help you understand the information we collect, store, use and share, and it applies whenever you visit our Website, our App or otherwise use or access our Services.

You are not legally required to provide us with any Personal Information, but without it, we will not be able to provide you with the full range or with the best experience of using our Services.

This Privacy Policy is integrated into and forms part of the Company’s Terms of Use and is incorporated therewith by reference. Any term not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to it under the Terms of Use.

We strongly urge you to read this Policy and make sure that you fully understand and agree to it. By using the Services, including our Website or App, you signify your acceptance of this Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Policy, please do not use our Services. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of changes to this Policy will mean that you accept such changes.

  1. What Types of Data We Collect?

We collect two types of data from you: personal information (“Personal Information”) and non-Personal Information. Personal Information means any information which may potentially allow your identification with reasonable means (for example, email address or name). Non-Personal Information, by contrast, can be defined as any information that does not relate to an identified or identifiable natural person. This may include, for example, your aggregated usage information and technical information transmitted by your device (for example, the device you use, the type of browser and operating system your device uses, language preference, access time, etc.). This section sets out how and when we collect those types of data from you.

2.1. Personal information.

  • Registration Information. During your registration to the Services, we request certain personal information from you, including your name, email address, mobile phone number, social media identifiers and contact details.
  • Contact list. We periodically access your contact list or address book on your mobile device to find and keep track of the mobile phone numbers of other users of the Service, based on your permission.
  • Payment Information. When you decide to make a purchase or withdraw funds from our Services, you will be required to provide us with your billing information. The information you will need to submit depends on which billing method you choose. For example, if you pay with a credit card, we will collect your card information.
  • Governmental-issued ID. In certain instances, you may be required to provide a copy of a governmental-issued ID, for the identity verification process. Please note that this information is required for certain features of our Services.
  • Device identifiers and device data. When you visit or access the Services, we also collect your IP address, UDID, your precise geolocation and other information transmitted by your device, including among other things the type of browser and operating system your device uses.
  • Log-in history and usage information. In order to enhance the functionality of the Services and to provide you with a better user experience, we collect technical information transmitted by your device when you use the Services, including information related to your behaviour and use of the Services.
  • Location information. The Company collects information about your general location (such as city and country). For example, we may use the IP address to identify your general location. This information does not tell us where your device is precisely located. This information is sent as a normal part of internet traffic. In addition, we also collect implicit location information, which allows us to infer that you are either interested in a place or that you might be at the place – this information does not actually tell us where your device is precisely located. In addition, the Company collects the precise location of your device (using GPS signals, device sensors, Wi-Fi access points, Bluetooth signals, Beacons signals and cell tower ids that can be used to derive or estimate precise location, or other geo-location data), when location services have been enabled by the end user (you typically have to choose to turn on device-based location services).
  • Communication Information. When you send us an email or contact us via the support in our Services, we collect the Personal Information you provide us. This may include your name, email address and any other information you choose to provide.

2.2. Non-Personal Information.

We process, use or share non-Personal Information, aggregated information or Personal Information in non-human readable form (e.g. anonymous or aggregated information concerning the way our user community interacts with the Services) in any of the above circumstances, as well as for the purpose of providing and improving our Services, aggregate statistics, marketing purposes and conduct business and marketing analysis, and enhance your experience with the Service.

We may anonymize or de-identify the information collected by the Services or via other means so that the information cannot, on its own, personally identify you. Our use and disclosure of such aggregated or de-identified information are not subject to any restrictions under this Policy, and we may disclose it to others without limitation and for any purpose, such as for advertising or marketing purposes.

If we combine Personal Information with Anonymous Information, the combined information will be treated as Personal Information for as long as it remains combined.

  1. Tracking Technologies.

When you visit or access our Services, we use cookies, pixels, beacons, local storage and similar technologies (“Tracking Technologies”). These allow us to automatically collect information about you, your device, and your online behaviour, in order to enhance your navigation in our Services, improve our Service’s performance, perform analytics, customize your experience and offer you, for example, tailored content and advertisements that better correspond with your interests.

3.1. What types of Tracking Technologies do we use?

(a) Strictly Necessary Tracking Technologies – these Tracking Technologies are automatically placed on your computer or device when you access our Services or take certain actions on our App or Website. These Tracking Technologies are essential to enable you to navigate around and use the features of our Services. We do not need to obtain your consent in order to use these Tracking Technologies;

(b) Tracking and Advertising Tracking Technologies – These Tracking Technologies collect information about your browsing habits in order to make advertising more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. The Tracking Technologies remember the websites you visit and that information is shared with other parties such as advertisers and/or publishers. Publishers, advertisers, and third-party ad networks may also utilize Tracking Technologies or similar technologies to deliver ads and monitor the performance of such ads. The collection of information through Tracking Technologies by such third parties will be governed by their own privacy policies/cookies policies and principles, which the Company does not control;

(c) Functionality Tracking Technologies – These Tracking Technologies allow our Services to remember choices you make (such as your language) and provide enhanced and personalized features.

These Tracking Technologies are used for analytics, research and performing statistics (based on aggregated information).

3.2. How and by whom Tracking Technologies are stored on your device?

We store Tracking Technologies on your device when you visit or access our Services (for example, when you are visiting our Website) – these are called “First Party Tracking Technologies”. In addition, Tracking Technologies are stored by other third parties (for example, our analytics service providers, business partners, and advertisers), who run content on our Services – these are called “Third Party Tracking Technologies”. Both types of Tracking Technologies may be stored either for the duration of your visit to our Services or for repeat visits.

There are various ways in which you can manage and control your Tracking Technologies settings. You can change your preferences using our cookie settings tool (however, please note that this tool may only be available in certain jurisdictions). Other methods of managing your Tracking Technology preferences include: changing your browser settings to send a “Do-Not-Track” signal. In such case, your browser will send us a special signal to stop tracking your activity; However, please note that certain features of the Website may not work properly or effectively if you delete or disable cookies.
