Personal Information may include, but is not limited to, a person’s name, email address, residential address, precise geolocation information (i.e., your specific location), telephone number, payment card information, transaction history, other billing information and, in some cases, user name.
  • “Non-Personal Information” means information that does not identify you and cannot be used to contact you personally and may include your date of birth, age, gender, postal code and non-precise geolocation information (e.g., your city), as well as information about your computer, mobile device and their hardware/software/firmware and including but not limited to your unique device ID, Internet Protocol (IP) address, or other persistent identifiers.

Application of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy only applies to the information that PPS collects and uses, or is supplied, through the use, access or installation of our Products and Services. Any information disclosed to any third party service providers is dealt with in accordance with the privacy policies adopted by each of those service providers. Individuals are encouraged to review the privacy policies maintained by each of those service providers to understand how their information will be used by those entities to process requests.

The Products and Services may contain links to third party websites (the “Linked Sites”) that are not controlled or operated by PPS. The Linked Sites are maintained by third parties who have their own privacy policies and their own terms and conditions of use. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any of the Linked Sites and PPS is not responsible for any information disclosed to or collected by those Linked Sites or for the privacy practices of any operators or sponsors of the Linked Sites. The fact that we link to a website is not an endorsement, authorization or representation of our affiliation with that third party. Because we cannot control the activities of third parties, we do not accept responsibility for any use of your information by such third parties, and we do not guarantee that they will adhere to the same privacy and security practices as PPS. To determine how your information will be treated when accessing or using the Linked Sites, you must read the privacy policy, if any, that applies to each of the Linked Sites.

Products Offered in Partnership with Third Party(s)

In some instances, users may register for other services from our Websites or Software. Certain Products and Services, or other products and/or services made available through our Websites or Software, are provided to you in partnership with third party(s) and may require you to disclose Personal Information in order to register for and access such products and/or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices and policies of such third party(s) and, therefore, you are responsible for reviewing the privacy practices and policies of such third party(s) prior to providing your Personal Information in connection with such products and/or services.

Collection of Information

We may collect information (including Personal Information) as follows:

  • Information you Provide to Us. If you choose to open an account with us, register for our Products and Services, sign up for our newsletter, request support, or in any other way take steps that require the submission of information; we may collect information such as your name, email address, physical address, date of birth, location, gender and/or phone number.
  • Social Media Sites. If you choose to connect to one of our Products and Services through a third-party social network such as Facebook, we may collect information from your profile on such third-party social networks, such as your name, username, photograph, gender and date of birth.
  • If you choose to make a purchase of or through our Products and Services, we will collect your credit card information and other billing information.
  • Public Forums. If you choose to make use of any public forum, comment section, or chat function, we may collect any information you may disclose through such means.

If you choose to send a message to another user or defined group of users through our message, chat, post or other in-app function, we may collect any information you may disclose through such means, as well as the necessary Personal Information of the user(s) you are contacting, in order to facilitate the communication.
  • Push Notifications. If you choose to enable push notifications, we may use your information such as a device ID, in order to send push notifications to your device.
  • Your Location. We may collect precise geolocation information provided that, prior to doing so initially, you will either be informed of such practice or be prompted to allow or disallow such feature. In the event you proceed with using any of the Products or Services or choose to allow such feature, you will have the ability to disallow it at any time thereafter by taking the appropriate steps in the applicable settings tab.
  • Other App’s on your Device. Certain of our Products and Services may read your device to determine what other apps and software have been installed and information, such as your city and gender, may be inferred based on the identity of those apps.
  • Information You Submit to Us. If you choose to submit your information to us for any other reason in any other form, we will collect such information and use it for the purposes for which you submitted it.
  • Visiting our Websites. We will not collect any Personal Information from you simply by virtue of your visiting any of our websites; we only collect Personal Information if you choose to submit it to us.

  • Where Permitted by Law. We may also collect information, including Personal Information as otherwise permitted by law.
  • Do Not Track (DNT). Do Not Track (DNT) is a privacy preference that users can set in their web browsers allowing users to opt out of tracking by websites and online services.  At the present time, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has not yet established universal standards for recognizable DNT signals, and, therefore, PPS does not recognize DNT.
  • Our Third Party Contractors. From time to time, PPS may employ third party contractors to collect Personal Information on our behalf to provide email delivery, product, prize or promotional fulfillment, contest administration, credit card processing, shipping or other services on our sites. When requesting these services, you may be asked to supply your name, mailing address, telephone number, email address and other information to our third party contractors. We may ask some third party contractors, such as credit agencies, data analytics or market research firms, to supplement Personal Information that you provide to us for our own marketing and demographic studies, so that we can consistently improve our sites and related advertising to better meet our visitors’ needs and preferences. To enrich our understanding of individual customers, we may tie this information to the Personal Information you provide to us.
  • “Cookies”. In connection with the foregoing collection of information, we may also use “cookies” or similar technologies (small amounts of data that are stored on your computer’s hard drive, mobile device or personal electronic devices when you use or access our Products and Services that identify your computer, mobile device or personal electronic devices and may store information about you such as behavioural data). Should you choose to submit Personal Information to us, we may link cookie information to such Personal Information. If you do not wish to accept cookies, you have the option of blocking or disabling cookies. However, please be aware that some of our Products and Services will not function properly if you do so and you may lose access to Products and Services you purchased.

Such cookies may collect Non-Personal Information which those advertisers may use to serve you targeted ads both within and outside of our Products and Services.
