Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes Kivivi's policies and procedures on the collection, use and disclosure of your information. Kivivi receives your information through your access and use of our services and our web site ("Services"). When using any of our Services you consent to the collection, manipulation, storage, disclosure and other uses of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third party sites that may be linked to the Services, or any relationship you may have with the businesses listed on our Services.
BY USING OUR SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE SERVICES.
Information Collection and Use
Information Collected Upon Registration: When you register for or reconfigure a Kivivi account, you provide some personal information. Some of this information, for example, your First Name and Last Name, is listed publicly on our Services, including on your comments and endorsements. Some Services, such as search, viewing posts, hearting, commenting, endorsing and sharing do not require registration.
We may use your contact information to send you information about our Services or to market to you. You may unsubscribe from these messages by following the instructions contained within the messages or the instructions on our web site. If you email us, we may keep your message, email address and contact information to respond to your request. Providing the additional information described in this section is entirely optional.
Public Information: Our Services are primarily designed to help you share and review health & beauty information with other users. Most of the information you provide to us is information you are asking us to make public. This includes posts, hearts, endorsements, and comments (collectively, the "Submissions"), profile information, and many other bits of information. Our default is almost always to make the information you provide public. Your public information is broadly and instantly disseminated. For example, the Submissions are searchable by many search engines and are immediately available for other users. The Submissions may be distributed to third parties, who may in turn publicly display or publish your submissions in connection with their own websites and media platforms. You should be careful about all information that will be made public by Kivivi, not just the Submissions.
Log Data: Our servers automatically record information ("Log Data") created by your use of our Services. Log Data may include information such as your IP address, browser type, the referring domain, pages visited, and search terms.
Cookies: Like many websites, we use "cookie" technology to collect additional website usage data and to improve our Services. A cookie is a small data file that is transferred to your computer's hard disk. Kivivi 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.
Third Party Services: Kivivi uses the following third parties:
Google Analytics to help understand use of our Services. Through Google, Analytics collects the information sent by your browser as part of a web page request, including cookies and your IP address. Google also receives this information and their use of it is governed by their Privacy Policy.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
Your Consent: We may share or disclose your information with your consent.
Vendors: 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, and only pursuant to obligations mirroring the protections of this privacy policy.
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 Kivivi's rights or property.
Business Transfers: In the event that Kivivi is involved in a bankruptcy, merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets, your information may be sold or transferred as part of that transaction. The promises in this privacy policy will apply to your information as transferred to the new entity.
Non-Private or Non-Personal Information: We may share or disclose your non-private, aggregated or otherwise non-personal information, such as your Submissions or the number of users who clicked on a particular link.
Links: Our Services may contain links to third party websites to which we have no affiliation. Except as set forth herein, we do not share your personal information with those third parties, and are not responsible for their privacy practices. We suggest you read the privacy policies on all such third party websites.
Modifying Your Personal Information
If you are a registered user of our Services, we provide you with tools to access or modify the personal information you provided to us and associated with your account.
Our Policy Towards Children
Our Services are not directed to people under 18. If you become aware that your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us at privacy@kivivi.com. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we take steps to remove such information and terminate the child's account.
Changes to this Policy
We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. The most current version of the policy will govern our use of your information and will always be at http://kivivi.com/privacy. If we make a change to this policy that, in our sole discretion, is material, we will notify you via e-mail to the email associated with your account. By continuing to access or use our Services after those changes become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised Privacy Policy.
