Privacy Notice

Effective date: May 11, 2023

This Privacy Policy and Terms of Use (“Policy”) establishes the privacy practices of Fahlgren Mortine’s website (the “Site”) and its mobile applications (“Apps”). Specifically, it outlines the types of information that we gather about you while you are using the Site and/or Apps and the ways in which we use and share this information. This Policy does not apply to any information collected offline—whether provided by you or collected by us through other means (for example, via telephone or through the mail). By visiting and using the Site and/or Apps, you agree that your use of our Site and/or Apps, and any dispute over our online privacy practices, is governed by this Policy.

TRUEDEPTH API NOTICE

Our app makes use of automatically collected information using the device camera and the TrueDepth API provided by Apple. The only use of this information is to track the user's head and face so that the user can control the AR experience and the selfie filters by moving their device and their head. None of the information collected by the TrueDepth API ever leaves the user's device, is not stored, and will never be shared with third parties. Pointclouds from the TrueDepth are stored for local calibration to enhance the experience for the user. This information can be removed by deletion of the application on the user's device.

HOW WE COLLECT AND USE INFORMATION

We may collect and store information, including personally-identifiable information (such as your name, phone number or email address) or other information that identifies you, that you voluntarily supply to us while on our Site and/or Apps. Some examples of this type of information include information that you electronically submit when you contact us with questions or complete an online form. We collect or store such personally-identifiable information for purposes of responding to your inquiry or for otherwise providing the service you requested at the time such information was provided.

We also collect and store non-personally identifiable information that is generated automatically as you navigate through the Site and/or Apps and numbers or alpha-numeric identifiers assigned by us, third parties or your computer. We may collect information about your computer’s and/or phone’s connection to the Internet, which allows us, among other things, to improve the delivery of our web and/or App pages to you and to measure traffic on the Site and/or Apps. We also may use a standard feature found in browser software called a “cookie” to enhance your experience with the Site and/or Apps. Cookies are small files that your web browser places on your hard drive for record-keeping purposes. By showing how and when visitors use the Site and/or Apps, cookies help us identify how many unique users visit us, and track user trends and patterns. We may also use web beacons (single-pixel graphic files also known as “transparent GIFs”) to access cookies and to count users who visit the Site and/or Apps or open HTML-formatted email messages.

The information we collect may be collected directly by us, or it may be collected on our behalf by a third-party website hosting provider or another third-party service provider.

We use the information we collect from you while you are using the Site and/or Apps in a variety of ways, including, for example, to process your request, provide you with services and communications that you have requested, send you email updates and other communications and customize features that appear on the Site and/or Apps, deliver our Site and/or Apps content to you, measure Site traffic, measure user interests and traffic patterns, and improve the Site and the services and features offered via the Site and/or Apps. In addition, we may use any information submitted by or collected from you via the Site and/or Apps for any purpose related to the Site and/or Apps, including to contact you for customer service purposes, to inform you of important changes or additions to the Site and/or Apps or the services offered, and to send you administrative notices and any other communications that we believe may be of interest to you.

In providing integrated communications services to our clients, we may collect personally-identifiable information as agent for a particular client on a specific project. In those cases, we collect and store such information and provide it to our client for its business purposes and we only collect and store that information for the period of time necessary to those services to our client. Such information is not shared with anyone other than our client.

We also may provide your information to our affiliates or to third parties, including our third-party service providers and contractors, for purposes related to Site and/or Apps administration and operation.

We also make some content, products and services available to you through our Site and/or Apps through cooperative relationships with third-party providers. We may share with our provider partner any information you provide, or that is collected, in the course of visiting any pages that are made available in cooperation with our provider partner. In some cases, which should be clear to you, the provider partner may collect information from you directly, in which cases the privacy policy of our provider partner will apply to the provider partner’s use of your information. The privacy policy of our provider partners may differ from ours. If you have any questions regarding the privacy policy of one of our provider partners, you should contact the provider partner directly for more information.

Please be aware that we reserve the right to share information about our visitors if required to do so by law or if, in our business judgment, such disclosure is reasonably necessary: (a) to comply with legal process; (b) to enforce our Terms of Service; or (c) to protect the rights, property or personal safety of our Site, our Apps, us, our affiliates, our officers, directors, employees, representatives, our licensors, our clients, other users, and/or the public.

Please also note that as our business grows, we may buy or sell various assets. In the unlikely event that we sell some or all of our assets, or our Site and/or Apps are acquired by another company, information about our Site and/or Apps users may be among the transferred assets.

DATA COLLECTION

From time to time, we may collect general, non-personal, statistical information about the use of the Site and/or Apps, such as from what sites visitors are coming from when they visit our Site and/or Apps, when they first visited our Site and/or Apps, their Internet Protocol (IP) address, how many visitors visit a specific page on the Site or an App, how long they stay on a page and which hyperlinks, if any, they “click” on. We may use the IP address to infer information about such visitor, including its company, city and state. We collect this information through the use of “cookies” and other tracking technologies. We use this information to determine which areas of the Site or App are most popular and to enhance the Site or App for visitors. We may group this information into aggregate visitor data to describe the use of the Site or App to our existing or potential business partners, clients, sponsors or other third parties, or in response to a government request. However, please be assured this aggregate data will in no way personally identify you or any other visitors to the Site and/or Apps.

California Business & Professions Code Section 22575(b) (as amended) provides that California residents are entitled to know how we respond to “Do Not Track” browser settings. We do not currently respond or take any actions with respect to do not track signals received from a web site browser. You may, however, refuse or delete cookies. Please refer to your browser Help, Settings or other similar instructions to learn more about cookies and other technologies and how to manage their use. If you elect to refuse or delete cookies, you will need to repeat this process if you use another computer or change browsers. If you choose to decline cookies, some of the functionality of the Site and other websites may be impaired.

STORAGE OF INFORMATION AND SECURITY

All information gathered on our Site and/or Apps is stored within a database to which only we and our hosting services provider are provided access. However, as effective as the reasonable security measures implemented by us may be, no physical or electronic security system is impenetrable. We can neither guarantee the security of our Site’s servers or databases, nor that information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet.

We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personally-identifiable information. We restrict access to personally-identifiable information to employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.

CHILDREN'S PRIVACYM

This Site and the Apps are not intended for use by children under age 13. We do not knowingly collect personally-identifiable information from anyone under 13 years of age. If we become aware that we have unknowingly collected such information from a child under the age of 13, we will take commercially reasonable efforts to delete such information from our database.
