Methods of collecting personal information

Non-PII(Personally Identifiable Information) such as statistical characteristics of visitors might be collected or provided via 3rd party analytics tools.

Clauses below are added to the previous Privacy Policy 

Use of 3rd Party Analytics

The company uses a tool called “Google Analytics” to collect information about use of this site. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit this site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. The company uses the information it gets from Google Analytics only to improve this site. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this site, rather than your name or other identifying information. The company does not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. To-opt out of Analytics for the web, visit the Google Analytics opt-out page and install the add-on for your browser.

The company also uses other 3rd party analytics for the same reasons stated above for Google Analytics, such as Facebook Analytics for Apps and Tune. These companies help the company understand your use of our service. In association with them, the company may collect your non-personal information such as IP address, app installation, age, language, device information.  These are for internal use only and the company does not combine this information with what it gathered through your use of our service for identifying purposes. Documentation for Facebook Analytics for Apps can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/analytics and Facebook's data policy can be found at https://www.facebook.com/policy.php. Privacy policy for Tune can be found at https://www.tune.com/resources/data-and-privacy/privacy-policies/.

New Privacy Policy will be effective from August 22, 2016 (EST).
