Data From Contests, Giveaways, and Surveys

Personal and other information you may provide when entering contests or giveaways and/or responding to surveys.

Having accurate information about you permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the App to:

• Generate a personal profile about you to make future visits to the App more personalized.
• Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the App.
• Notify you of updates to the App or Site.
• Request feedback and contact you about your use of the App.
• To improve our website and product (we continually strive to improve our ‘TheCitizen’ app and the website based on your feedback).
• We may periodically send promotional emails about new products, special offers or other information which we think you may find interesting using the email address which you have provided.

We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations. Your information may be disclosed as follows:

We will not sell, distribute, or lease your personal information to unrelated third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so. We may need to send your personal information to our third-party vendors, who are under contractual obligations to keep this information confidential. We may also use your personal information to send you promotional information about third parties which we think you may find interesting. Finally, if we ever sell any of the CTrends apps (e.g., ‘TheCitizen’, 'iSurveyGeo','iPatrolGeo', etc.), or participate in a merger or consolidation, and our User data is one of the assets involved in the sale, your personal information will be part of this sale or transfer.

We may also disclose your personal information:

• To comply with any court order, law or legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request.
• To enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements, including for billing and collection purposes.
• If we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of The Citizen App, our customers, or others. This may include exchanging information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

The App may contain links to third-party websites and applications of interest, including advertisements and external services, that are not affiliated with us. Once you have used these links to leave the App, any information you provide to these third parties is not covered by this Privacy Policy, and we cannot guarantee the safety and privacy of your information. Before visiting and providing any information to any third-party websites, you should inform yourself of the privacy policies and practices (if any) of the third party responsible for that website, and should take those steps necessary to, in your discretion, protect the privacy of your information. We are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of any third parties, including other sites, services or applications that may be linked to or from the App.

You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse. Any information disclosed online is vulnerable to interception and misuse by unauthorized parties. Therefore, we cannot guarantee complete security if you provide personal information.

If you have registered on this App or Site, you should be responsible to protect your user ID and password to prevent others from being able to access the app in your name. You should also be on guard for “phishing” scams and similar types of identity theft schemes. We do not and will not request your credit card information, your account ID, login password, or national identification numbers in a non-secure or unsolicited e-mail or telephone communication at any time.

Our service is not intended for children under 13 years of age. No one under the age of 13 may provide any personal information to, or on, the App. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, do not use or provide any information on this Website, or on or through any of its features/functionality, make any purchases through the App, use any of the interactive or public comment features that may be available on this App, or provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address or any screen name or username you may use.

If we learn that we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at office@ctrends-software.com.

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.

You can review and change your personal information by logging into your profile through the website or App and visiting your account profile page or settings page.

By using our site or app, you consent to our privacy policy.

If you have any questions or suggestions about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.
