Information Collection and Use

Information Collected Upon Registration: When you create or reconfigure an account on Exchangle, you provide some personal information, such as your name, username, password, email address, location and phone number. Some of this information, for example, your name and username, is listed publicly on our services, including on your profile page and in search results. Some services, such as search, public user profiles, do not require registration.

Exchangle uses the information we collect to operate, improve and personalize the products and services we offer. We also may use the information to communicate with you, for example, informing you about your account and security updates.

Links, Following and other Public Information: Our Services are primarily designed to help you share information with the world. Most of the information you provide us is information you are asking us to make public. This includes not only the links you share and the metadata provided with Links, such as when you Added, but also the lists you create, the people you follow, and many other bits of information that result from your use of the Services.

Our default is almost always to make the information you provide public for as long as you do not delete it from Exchangle, but we generally give you settings to make the information more private if you want. Your public information is broadly and instantly disseminated. For instance, your public user profile information and public Links may be searchable by search engines and are immediately delivered via SMS and our APIs to a wide range of users and services. When you share information or content like links via the Services, you should think carefully about what you are making public.

Log Data: Our servers automatically record information ("Log Data") created by your use of the Services. Log Data may include information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, the referring web page, pages visited, location, your mobile carrier, device and application IDs, search terms. We receive Log Data when you interact with our Services, for example, when you visit our websites, sign into our Services, interact with our email notifications. Exchangle uses Log Data to provide our Services and to measure, customize, and improve them.

Modifying Your Personal Information

If you are a registered user of our Services, we provide you with tools and account settings to access or modify the personal information you provided to us and associated with your account. You can also permanently delete your Exchangle account. When your account is deleted, all your information such as Personal information, Links, and Profile page will be deleted and will not be available again!

Cookies

We use cookies when you are logged in so that we can remember this fact. This prevents you from having to log in every single time you visit a new page. These cookies are typically removed or cleared when you log out to ensure that you can only access restricted features and areas when logged in. In some special cases we also use cookies provided by trusted third parties.

Our Policy Towards Children

Our Services are not directed to persons under 13. If you become aware that your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us at privacy@exchangle.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.
