Privacy Policy for the Saambaa Platform

 

1)     Saambaa Platform

a)     The application you downloaded is powered by and published by Saambaa.  Saambaa provides branded mobile application publishing services for its “Partners” on the “Saambaa Platform”.  Therefore, in all cases below, the term “Saambaa” is meant to describe Saambaa, its licensors or any Partner of Saambaa that chooses to publish branded apps on the Saambaa Platform.

b)    If you have downloaded a Partner-branded application published on the Saambaa Platform (such as the Partner application you downloaded here), that Partner has mutual rights to the data you provide by using that Partner’s application as described below.

2)     Saambaa’s Privacy Policy

a)     Non-Personal Information

i)      Information: Saambaa and its Partners intend to serve advertising within the Saambaa Platform. However, we will NEVER give your personally identifiable information to these companies without your expressed consent. We have a security wall between personally identifiable information (name, contact info, etc), and non-personally identifiable information (interests, activities, etc). In order to serve advertisements in the aforementioned manner, Saambaa may provide links to third party websites or allow other companies, called third-party ad servers, to display advertisements to you. We may share or disclose your non-private, non-personal information without disclosing anything about who that information is attached to. We may also track the number of users who clicked on a particular link (even if only one did), or we may share data in the aggregate (e.g. statistics).

ii)     Overall consent: Your use of Saambaa assumes your consent to the collection, transfer, manipulation, storage, disclosure and other uses of your information. Regardless of which country that you reside in or create information from, your information may be used by Saambaa in the United States or any other country where Saambaa operates.

iii)    Log Data: When you use Saambaa, our servers automatically record non-personally identifiable information ("Log Data") created by your use of the Services. This information helps us figure out how users in general are using the site, so we can make adjustments to improve the Saambaa experience. Log Data may include information such as your IP address, browser type, the referring domain, pages visited, and search terms. Other actions, such as interactions with advertisements, may also be included in Log Data.

iv)    Cookies: Like many web services, we use "cookie" technology to collect non-personally identifiable website usage data and to improve our services. A cookie is a small text file containing a string of alphanumeric characters - to administer our services and provide a more tailored and user friendly service to you. For example, we may use cookies to count the number of unique users accessing our services. Saambaa may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to better understand how you interact with our services, to monitor aggregate usage by our users and web traffic routing on our services, and to improve our services. Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies. You can instruct your browser, by editing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit. However, some features of Saambaa may not function properly if the ability to accept cookies is disabled.

If so, your public information, including profile information and postings, would be broadly and instantly disseminated unless made private. It is also likely that your intended destinations will be made public if you do not adjust privacy settings. In some cases you will not be able to make your destinations private from 1st degree friends. You may also disclose your current location; you will be able to control location information in the service.

iii)    Service Providers: We engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to us. We may share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these functions and provide such services within the context of our Site and its related communications, and only pursuant to obligations mirroring the protections of this privacy policy. We also may share non-personally-identifiable information such as broad user statistics for research, or interest keywords so we may better serve targeted advertising. For instance, we may share your non-personally-identifiable information with advertisers, such as your interest in photography, to show you ads for camera equipment, but we do not tell the camera equipment company whom you are.

iv)    Law and Harm: We may disclose your information if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation or legal request; to protect the safety of any person; to address fraud, security or technical issues; or to protect Saambaa’s rights or property.
