Privacy Policy
PeepSoftware respects and is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy (POLICY) discloses how PeepSoftware collects, protects, uses and shares information gathered about you through the use of all web sites and mobile applications.
Information Collected
-
Personally Identifying Information.
Except as described herein, the PeepSoftware web site and applications
do not require user registration to access content. While
visiting the PeepSoftware web site, you may be asked to
provide information that personally identifies you. "Personal
information" is information that can be associated with a
specific person and can be used to identify that person.
This information is gathered on a voluntary basis for the
sole purpose of better serving you. You may choose not to
provide personal information and you still will be able to
visit the PeepSoftware web site. The following items/site/application
features are examples of content on the PeepSoftware
web site where personal information may be sought:
- To register to receive the PeepSoftware e-newsletter or participate in other marketing programs;
- To register for any current sweepstakes or other offerings.
- Non-Personally Identifying Information. PeepSoftware collects limited non-personally identifying information your browser makes available when connected to our web site. For example, web site log files are generated that collect the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the visitor, date, time, pages visited, and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser. You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. If you turn cookies off, you may lose some functionality for web sites. All information collected using the above technology is used to operate, develop and improve our services. Additionally, aggregate reports for web site visitors are generated that do not contain personally identifiable information. Advertising reports are generated that show the IP addresses of visitors as well as specific pages visited. This information may be sent to the advertiser to confirm the number of "click-thrus." The advertiser normally already has this information as a result of the user clicking on the advertisement. No additional information about the visitor is supplied to the advertiser. The log files are eventually deleted. PeepSoftware also collects a non-identifiable hash made up of the uuid and other proprietary items to determine the material that a mobile application user has accessed so as to provide a better user experience or diagnose problems when/if they should occur.
Use of Information
The personal information collected about you as described above may be used in the following ways:
- To personalize your site experience and to allow the delivery of the type of content and offerings in which you are most interested;
- To administer a contest, promotion, survey, or other site feature;
- To send you targeted service update notices or to learn more about your user experience;
- To customize, measure and improve our services and the content, layout, and design of our web site;
- To analyze trends and statistics;
- To protect the security or integrity of our web sites and business;
- To allow better service in responding to customer service requests; and
- To communicate with you for various business and marketing purposes, including sending you information by e-newsletter, email, postal mail or other means about products, services, contests and promotions. If you would no longer like to receive promotional email, you may unsubscribe with instructions found at the bottom of all email marketing materials.
Information Sharing
PeepSoftware maintains a strict No-Spam POLICY, which means we do not sell your personally identifying information to other companies or individuals except as may be permitted by this POLICY. Such information may be shared in any of the following limited circumstances:

-
Law enforcement, government officials, or other third parties
when:
- we are required by law, including to comply with a judicial proceeding, a court order, or legal process; and

- To partner with another company to offer or provide you with products, services, contests or promotions; and
- To provide our service providers with necessary information for the sole purpose of processing personally identifying information on our behalf (i.e., sweepstakes registration, e-newsletter distribution).
