Privacy Policy
What This Policy Covers
Throughout this Privacy Policy we'll refer to our website as "Services."
Below we explain how we collect, use, and share information about you, along with the choices that you have with respect to that information.
Information We Collect
We only collect information about you if we have a reason to do so — for example, to provide our Services, to communicate with you, or to make our Services better.
We collect this information from three sources: if and when you provide information to us, automatically through operating our Services, and from outside sources.
Information You Provide to Us
It's probably no surprise that we collect information that you provide to us directly. Here are some examples:
- Basic account information: We ask for basic information from you in order to set up your account.
- Public profile information: If you have an account with us, we collect the information that you provide for your public profile.
- Content information: You might provide us with information about you in draft and published content.
- Communications with us: You may also provide us with information when you communicate with us about a support question.
Information We Collect Automatically
We also collect some information automatically:
- Log information: Like most online service providers, we collect information that web browsers, mobile devices, and servers typically make available.
- Usage information: We collect information about your usage of our Services.
- Location information: We may determine the approximate location of your device from your IP address.
How and Why We Use Information
We use information about you for the purposes listed below:
- To provide our Services
- To ensure quality, maintain safety, and improve our Services
- To market our Services and measure, gauge, and improve the effectiveness of our marketing
- To protect our Services, our users, and the public
- To communicate with you about offers, promotions, and other news about products and services
Sharing Information
We share information about you in limited circumstances, and with appropriate safeguards on your privacy.
How Long We Keep Information
We generally discard information about you when it's no longer needed for the purposes for which we collect and use it — described in the section above on How and Why We Use Information — and we're not legally required to keep it.
Security
While no online service is 100% secure, we work very hard to protect information about you against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction, and take reasonable measures to do so.
Your Rights
If you are located in certain parts of the world, including some US states and countries that fall under the scope of the European General Data Protection Regulation (aka the "GDPR"), you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, like the right to request access to or deletion of your data.
Privacy Policy Changes
Although most changes are likely to be minor, we may change our Privacy Policy from time to time. We encourage visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to our Privacy Policy.
