This Privacy Policy was first published and in effect on
September 8th, 2012, and updated on August 6, 2015.
This Privacy Policy ("Privacy Policy" or "Policy") informs
you how Pin4Ever and its Agents ("Agents" includes contractors,
service providers, and other entities acting on behalf of, or with
authorization by, Pin4Ever) collect, process, use, share and
protect information gathered about you through our website and
Services. As used in this Policy, to "use" or "process"
information is defined as using or handling information in any
way, including, but not limited to, collecting, storing,
combining, evaluating, analyzing, modifying, deleting, disclosing,
and transferring information within our organization or among our
affiliates within the United States or internationally. Please

How Pin4Ever Collects Information
Information is collected from visitors to the
website through the use of technological tools such as "Web
Log Data" and "Cookies," which are further explained below.
Pin4ever collects information that is provided
by you voluntarily during the registration and verification of
your Account, when you update your Account details, and when
you use certain features of our website or Service (such as
entering your email on the "Contact Us" form).
For your convenience, Pin4Ever will
automatically read your public Pinterest username and your
Pinterest email address, and use these items to create a
Pin4Ever account for you. By installing Pin4Ever, you agree
that we may access and store this data in order to allow the
Pin4Ever program to operate, and to provide a means for us to
contact you, to the extent described below.
When registered users run the Pin4ever backup
Service, technological tools such as "Web Log Data" and
"Cookies" collect certain information, including but not
limited to, user display preferences, the beginning time of
the backup, whether the backup was successful, and the time
the backup was completed.
Types of Information Collected and How Pin4Ever Uses It
Personal Information
Website visitors can access most of the webpages without
providing any Personal Information. If you choose to register
for a Pin4Ever Account, which is required to access and use
the backup Service, you will be asked to provide Personal
Information which can be used by Pin4Ever: to identify and
contact you; to verify your Account information; and to enable
use of the Pin4Ever Service. Personal Information may include,
but is not limited to, your email address, your name,
transaction details when you purchase a subscription or
activate a free trial, and your Pinterest Username. Pin4Ever
or its Agents may use your Personal Information to contact you
with news about Pin4Ever, promotions or marketing, and
additional information that Pin4Ever believes may be of
interest to you.
Non-Personal Information
Pin4Ever also collects other information sent to us by
your computer, mobile phone, or other access device during the
registration, operation and customization of your Account and
your use of the Service and website that cannot reasonably be
used to identify or contact you, through the use of
technological tools such as the Web Log Data and Cookies
described below. Pin4Ever may use both Personal and
Non-Personal Information, alone or in combination, in order to
analyze and understand how the website and Service are used,
to guide efforts to enhance the website or Service, to improve
marketing and promotional efforts, and/or to attempt to
accommodate your preferences when you are using the website or
Service.
Web Log Data and Cookies
Non-Personal Information may be collected through
technological tools such as Web Log Data and/or Cookies when
you visit our website or use the Pin4Ever Service, including
but not limited to your IP address, browser type, referring
websites, pages visited, display preferences, and access
times. When you visit our website, cookies (i.e., small data
files) may be set on your computer by Pin4Ever, or by a web
analytics service utilized by Pin4Ever. You may refuse the use
of cookies if you prefer by using the settings on your
browser, but this may impair your ability to benefit from the
full functionality of the Pin4Ever website and Service. The
Non-Personal Information collected from technological tools
such as Web Logs and Cookies is used by Pin4ever to gather and
analyze general statistics regarding use of the Pin4Ever
website and Service, for operating the website and Service,
and for maintaining and improving the quality of the website
and Service.
Sharing of Your Information
Compliance with Law and Law Enforcement
Pin4Ever intends to cooperate with government and law
enforcement representatives and private parties to help ensure
compliance with the law. Pin4Ever can disclose to government
or law enforcement officials or private third parties any
information Pin4Ever possesses about you that Pin4Ever, in its
sole discretion, believes is appropriate or necessary in order
to: respond to claims or legal process including, but not
limited to, subpoenas; protect the rights or property of
Pin4Ever or a third party; protect the safety of any
individual or the public; or prevent or halt activity that
Pin4Ever believes to be actually or potentially illegal,
unethical or legally actionable.
Business Transfers
Pin4Ever may sell, divest, transfer, assign, share or
otherwise engage in a transaction that involves some or all of
Pin4Ever's assets, including any or all of the information
described in this Privacy Policy, in the course of a business
merger, acquisition, joint venture, bankruptcy, dissolution,
reorganization, or any other similar transaction or
proceeding.
Governing Law; International Information Transfers
This Privacy Policy shall be governed by the laws of the
United States. The server(s) that make the website available and
the databases where information is stored may be located outside
of your state, province, country or other governmental
jurisdiction from which you accessed the website, and may be
situated in a jurisdiction that has different privacy laws than
those of your present location or place of residence. The
information voluntarily provided by you while using Pin4Ever's
website or Service may, therefore, be transferred
internationally, and Pin4Ever may collect, store, process, and
use information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. By
visiting the Pin4Ever website, registering for an Account and/or
using the Service, you consent to such transfer, collection,
use, processing and/or storage of your information in accordance
with the Pin4Ever Privacy Policy.
Reviewing and Updating Your Personal Information and
Communication Choices
You may review and change your Personal Information in
your Account by signing in to your Account and visiting the
Settings webpage, which is linked at the top of every webpage on
the Pin4Ever website. You may also use the "Contact Us" link
found at the top of every webpage to request changes or
corrections of your Account information. You can also opt out of
receiving certain email communications, such as promotions and
marketing from Pin4Ever and its Agents, by visiting the Settings
page as described and indicating your preference. If you choose
not to receive these optional email messages, Pin4Ever will only
contact you as deemed necessary, such as when there is
information Pin4Ever views as important to communicate to you
regarding your Account, the website or the Service.
Links to and from Third-Party Websites
The Pin4Ever website may contain links to other
third-party websites. The presence of a link to a third-party
website on Pin4Ever's website does not indicate Pin4Ever's
endorsement, approval or representation of an affiliation with
such third-parties or their websites. In addition, other
websites which are not affiliated with, or endorsed or approved
by, Pin4Ever may also provide links to the Pin4Ever website
without Pin4Ever's knowledge or consent. The privacy policies
and data collection practices on any such third-party websites
linked to or from the Pin4Ever website are entirely separate
from Pin4Ever and are not covered by this Privacy Policy.
Pin4Ever has no control over or responsibility for the content,
policies, actions or inactions of these third-party linked
websites.
Storage and Security of Information
Information Security
Pin4Ever uses commercially reasonable methods to protect
the integrity and security of the information it collects and
maintains through the website and Service. All Personal
Information submitted by our users is protected against
unauthorized access or use by security measures, such as
firewalls and encryption. However, no data transmitted over
the internet or stored electronically is completely secure,
and Pin4Ever therefore cannot guarantee or warrant that any
information you provide will not be accessed, collected,
disclosed, changed, destroyed or otherwise used by
unauthorized persons.
Protect Against Phishing and Identity Theft
Please take reasonable precautions to protect your
private information such as login information, bank account
and credit card numbers, and national identification numbers
from attempts at identity theft, including "phishing," made by
unauthorized third parties. Pin4Ever will not request such
private information from you by either telephone or email.
Payments for Pin4Ever Service subscriptions are handled
exclusively through PayPal
Information Storage
Pin4Ever retains information as long as it is necessary
and relevant for our operations. In addition, Pin4Ever may
retain Personal Information from closed Accounts to comply with
the law, prevent fraud, collect any monies owed, resolve
disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigation,
enforce our Terms of Service and take other actions permitted by
law.
Collection of Children's Information
As Pin4Ever is not intended for use by children under age
13, information will not be knowingly collected from them. We
recommend that parents monitor their children's online
activities, and investigate and utilize software or other tools
that allow them to ensure that their children can enjoy the
internet as the parents deem appropriate. If a parent or
guardian has knowledge that a child has submitted Personal
Information to Pin4Ever without consent of the parent or
guardian, he or she may contact us using the "Contact Us" link
found at the top of every webpage, and request deletion of the
information.
Changes to Pin4Ever's Privacy Policy
Pin4Ever reserves the right to update, modify, revise
and/or supplement this Privacy Policy and any disclosures and
disclaimers at any time without notice. We may also change the
information, features, policies or promotions on the website or
Service at any time without notice. Changes to this Privacy
Policy will be posted to our website, and the date of any
modification will be stated there, so please check our Privacy
Policy periodically for any changes. Your continued use of the
website or Service after any changes to this Privacy Policy
signifies your acceptance of such changes.
