Невыгодный privacy policy html. ИБ: Зачем нужна Privacy Policy и что в ней меняет GDPR. Как найти и изменить свои персональные данные

2. WHERE THIS PRIVACY POLICY APPLIES

This Privacy Policy applies to websites, apps and other services operated by Apalon. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as our "services" or "apps" in this Privacy Policy. To make it extra clear, we"ve added links to this Privacy Policy on all applicable services.

3. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

It goes without saying, we can"t help you have an awesome user experience without some information about you, such as your email address and password in some of our services. We also collect information generated as you use our services, as well as information from third parties, like when you access our services through your Facebook account in Weather Live. Your information may be kept in an identifiable format, or in an aggregate format which means that you cannot reasonably be identified from it.

Information you give us

You choose to give us certain information when using our services. This includes:

  • When you create an account in some of our services, you provide us with your login credentials, such as email address, name and password.
  • To use certain features in our services, you may allow us to access your camera or the microphone. Depending on your device, Apple and Android system will ask for your permission before allowing us to access these features. The Warmlight – Picture Editor App does not have access or collect any facial data.
  • Features that allow you to share content about your use of our services with your connections or through your social network. We may also collect your information when you use our app such as when you post or share material, upload data, request further services or make selections using our app, if such functionality is available in the app.
  • In our Paloma app, please note that anything you input into the app (such as your menstruation) is stored on your device and not accessible by Apalon. However, in order to understand if our Paloma users are enjoying the app, we do receive anonymised statistics from our analytics partners about what features users like and don"t like. Should you wish to sync data held in your Apple "Health" app with Paloma (and vice versa), we will ask you for your explicit permission to do this. If you permit Paloma to access your Apple "Health" app data, then this data will only be stored on your device and will not be transmitted to Apalon or any other third party. You can "unsync" Paloma from your Apple "Health" app or vice versa at any time – however, please note that all previously synced data will remain. You can manually remove your data from your Apple "Health" app or Paloma at any time.
  • In our Sleepzy app, we ask for your explicit permission to access your heart rate data, which is stored on your device through Apple "Health" app. If you permit Sleepzy to access this data, then this data will be displayed in the Sleepzy app to help you gain a better understanding of your sleep habits and sleep quality alongside your health metrics. We will not store or access any of your health data that is accessed from Apple "Health" app and will not transmit this data to external servers or any other third party; all data from Apple "Health" app shall remain on your device. For additional clarity, we will not use your health data for advertising, promotion, cross-selling or any similar service.
  • If you contact our support team, we collect the information you give us when you report a problem, contact or communicate with us. In our VPN App, we do not connect this information to your internet browsing activities through our VPN.
  • From time to time, we may request your opinions, suggestions, or modification and improvement ideas ("Feedback") through surveys, or other similar requests. Any responses you provide are voluntary, however you agree that any Feedback you provide shall be owned Apalon and may be used by Apalon in our sole discretion.

Information we receive from others

In addition to the information you provide us directly, we receive information about you from others, including:


Information collected when you use our services

When you use our services, we collect information about which features you"ve used, how you"ve used them and the devices you use to access our services. See below for more details:

  • Usage Information
    We collect information about your activity on our services, for instance how you use them (e.g., date and time you logged in, time spent in the app, features you"ve been using, advertising that you click on).
  • Movement Data : If you opt-in, some services (e.g. Apalon"s sleep tracker app, Sleepzy) may collect movement data from your device.
  • Device information

We collect information from and about the device(s) you use to access our services, including:

  • geolocation data (in some of our apps), which is any information which indicates the geographical position of your device and which may include the time the location was recorded, and may include precise (e.g., GPS-level) location data. Some apps may collect this data when the app is not open or actively in use. This may help us or third parties to customize information, content, or offers to you, for instance.
  • information on your wireless and mobile network connection, like your service provider and signal strength.
  • hardware and software information such as IP address, device type, app crashes, app version, advertising IDs (such as Google"s AdvertisingID and Apple"s IDFA, both of which are randomly generated numbers that you can reset by going into your device"s settings), browser type, version and language, operating system, time zones, identifiers associated with cookies or other technologies that may uniquely identify your device or browser (e.g., IMEI/UDID and MAC address).

Information we collect when you use our #VPN app:

Our #VPN app is intended to provide for secure and private internet browsing to be used in accordance with all applicable laws.

In our #VPN app, we collect information from and about the device(s) you use to access our VPN app, including:

  • From when you open the #VPN App:
    . Our servers automatically record information about how a person uses the app, including things like app install source, IP address, app version, operating system, device model and device language.
    . From time to time, we might show you subscription offers - but at no time will you see an advertisement in our #VPN app.
    . At no time will we ask you for access to your precise device location data in our #VPN app.
  • From moment you turn on #VPN software:
    . Your browsing activity (including your IP address) becomes encrypted, meaning it becomes invisible to ISPs, third party snoopers and even us.
    . We have a strict no-logs policy when it comes to seeing user activity online. Your IP address is deleted after you disconnect from the VPN.

4. COOKIES AND OTHER SIMILAR DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES

As described in Sections 3 and 5 of this Privacy Policy, we sometimes work with third parties to deliver ads or offers. Sometimes we or these third parties do so through a mobile "SDK." The SDK is a bit of computer code that app developers can include in their apps to enable data to be collected and ads to be shown. We may use this and similar technology to deliver certain advertising through mobile applications and browsers based on data associated with your mobile device, and we may work with third parties who likewise embed their SDKs into our services, for third party advertising. If you"d like to opt-out from having ads tailored to you in this way on your mobile device, please follow the instructions below or in the app (as applicable).

If you wish to opt out of interest-based tracking through your mobile device, you can do so through your device "settings", as follows (but please note that the below is for informational purposes only and Apple, Google, or other device platforms may change the manner in which their "opt out" settings work at any time): Please note that if you opt out through these settings, you will continue to receive advertising after you opt-out, but it may not be tailored to your interests. For instance, that advertising may be based on your real-time or "contextual" application usage or general location inferred from IP address.

Opting Out on iOS Devices Such as iPhones, iPads or iPods
If you have an Apple device, you can opt out of interest-based advertising by updating to iOS 6.0 or higher, and setting Limit Ad Tracking to "ON". On an iPhone 6 for example, you can do this by clicking on Settings -> General -> Privacy -> Advertising and toggling "Limit Ad Tracking" to "ON". Our systems are designed to respect your choice and not use your personal information to provide interest-based advertising when this setting is ON.

Opting Out on Android Devices
If you have an Android device and would like to opt out of interest-based advertising, you may do this as follows:

  • Open the Settings app on your device
  • Go to "Google"
  • Select Ads
  • Opt out of interest-based ads

We do not keep logs of your online activities and never associate any domains, or applications that you access while the VPN is connected with you or your device.

  • Some of our apps may offer you the ability to register and login using your third party social media account details (like your Facebook or Twitter logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider.

Device information and other information which we gather are provided to Google in order to enable them to carry out data analysis. Any information which is provided to Google will become subject to Google"s privacy policy which is located here: www.google.com/privacy.html . For further information on how Google"s Firebase analytics tool uses data, please see the site "How Google uses data when you use our partners" sites or apps", (located at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/).
  • Conduct research and analysis of your behaviour about your use of, or interest in, our products, services, or content to improve our services and content (for instance, we may decide to change the look and feel or even substantially modify a given feature based on users" behaviour).

The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and after it is received. We work hard to protect you from unauthorized access to or alteration, disclosure or destruction of your personal information. As with all technology companies, although we take steps to secure your information, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information will always remain secure. We regularly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks and regularly review our information collection, storage and processing practices to update our physical, technical and organizational security measures.

We may suspend your use of all or part of the services without notice if we suspect or detect any breach of security. If you believe that your account or information is no longer secure, please notify us immediately at

8. INFORMATION RELATING TO CHILDREN

Our services are intended for general audiences over the age of 13 years old (or over the age of 16 if you are resident in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13 years old, or 16 years old in the EEA. If you are not over 13 years old (or 16 years old in the EEA) then DO NOT DOWNLOAD OR USE THE SERVICES. If you believe that we may have personal information from or about a child under the age of 13 years old (or over the age of 16 if you are resident in the EEA), please contact us at and we will promptly delete that personal information

9. YOUR RIGHTS

We want you to be in control of your information and be aware of your privacy rights, so here are a few key points to remember:

  • Depending on your location you may have some or all of the following rights in relation to how we use your personal information:
    . Access: you may request access to your personal information and receive copies of it;
    . Correction: you may have inaccurate/incomplete personal information corrected and updated;
    . Object to, or Limit or Restrict, Use of Data: you can ask us to stop using all or some of your personal information or to limit our use of it.
    . Deletion: in certain circumstances, you can request a right "to be forgotten" (this is a right to have your information deleted or our use of your data restricted). We will honour such requests unless we have to retain this information to comply with a legal obligation or unless we have an overriding interest to retain it.
    . Portability: in certain circumstances, exercise the right to data portability (this is a right to obtain a transferable version of your personal information to transfer to another provider)
    . Consent Management: where we rely on consent to process your personal data, you may withdraw consent at any time. You do not have to provide a reason for your withdrawal where processing is based on consent.
  • If you wish to exercise any of these rights, or wish to object to our use of your information, please write to us at the address listed below and we will consider your request in accordance with applicable laws.
  • Keep in mind, we may reject requests for certain reasons, including if the request is unlawful or if it may infringe on the rights and freedoms of another person. For example, we may not be able to accommodate certain requests to object to the processing of personal information, notably where such requests would not allow us to provide our service to you anymore.
  • For your protection, we may ask you to provide proof of identity before we can answer the above requests.

10. CROSS-BORDER DATA TRANSFERS

Sharing of information sometimes involves cross-border data transfers, for instance to the United States of America and other jurisdictions. The United States, European Economic Area ("EEA") Member States, and other countries all have different laws. When your information is moved from your home country to another country, the laws and rules that protect your personal information in the country to which your information is transferred may be different from those in the country in which you live.

The European Commission has adopted standard contractual clauses (also known as Model Clauses), which provide safeguards for personal information that is transferred outside of the EEA. We use these Model Clauses or other suitable safeguards (such as EU-US Privacy Shield to send personal information to some of our third party service providers in the United States, where they are certified to receive such information under the Privacy Shield Program) to permit data transfers from the EEA to other countries.

11. HOW LONG WE STORE YOUR INFORMATION

We retain your information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the services to you. We will also retain and use your information to the extent necessary:

  • to comply with applicable law;
  • to evidence our compliance with applicable law;
  • if there is an outstanding issue, claim or dispute requiring us to keep the relevant information until it is resolved; or
  • if the information must be kept for our legitimate business interests, such as enforcing our terms or fraud prevention. For example, information may need to be kept to prevent a user who was banned for security incidents from opening a new account.

Keep in mind that even though our systems are designed to carry out data deletion processes according to the above guidelines, we cannot promise that all data will be deleted within a specific timeframe due to technical constraints.

12. PRIVACY POLICY CHANGES

Because we"re always looking for new and innovative ways to help you enjoy our services, this policy may change over time. We will notify you of any material changes so that you have time to review the changes.

13. DATA PROTECTION OFFICER

For our European users, our Data Protection Officer is responsible for ensuring your rights are respected and to review and oversee how we collect and use your personal information. They can be reached by contacting

The privacy policy is one of the most essential legal requirements for websites.

Even if you just have a small business or a blog with no income at all, you might be surprised to discover that you still need a privacy policy.

Basically, if your website collects personal data, you need a privacy policy that informs your users about this according to privacy laws in most jurisdictions, including the EU and the US.

Almost all modern websites function with the use of cookies, so chances are high that your website is collecting personal data, for example for statistical, functional or marketing purposes.

In this blogpost, we take a look at what constitutes a good privacy policy, how to make a compliant GDPR privacy policy and whether using a privacy policy generator is a good idea.

Learn what the privacy policy is and how to get one for your website below.

What is a privacy policy?

A privacy policy is a document that states what personal data you collect from your users, why, and how you keep it private.

The purpose of the privacy policy is to inform your users about how their data is being handled.

Hence, the privacy policy should be accessible for your users and kept in a plain and readable language.

If your website is hosted, or if you use plugins, social media-buttons, analytics tools and the like on your website, then it does set cookies and collect user data.

GDPR privacy policy

The free audit scans five pages of your website and sends you a report of the cookies and online tracking on these pages, including information on their provenance, purpose and whether or not they are compliant.

If you want a complete overview of the cookies and online tracking going on on all of your website, sign up to the Cookiebot solution.

How can I get a privacy policy on my website? A GDPR compliant privacy policy

The privacy policy can be written as an independent page on your website, and be made accessible as a link in the header or footer of your website, or on your ‘About’ page.

It may also be hosted by a privacy policy-service with a link from your homepage.

Basically, it doesn’t matter where you choose to place it, as long as your users have access to it.

The privacy policy is a legal text. The phrasing depends on which jurisdictions your website falls under and how your website handles data.

All websites are different. We always recommend that you consult a lawyer to ensure that your privacy policy is compliant with all applicable laws.

However, this might seem as a large expense if you are, for instance, a hobby blogger or small business.

That is also why using a privacy policy generator can be a hazardous thing, since you must be very careful to include all the specific information of your website, and not just have privacy policy generator spit out a default one that isn"t aligned with your domain

GDPR privacy policy templates & privacy policy generators

There exists numerous tools for creating privacy policies, and privacy policy templates and privacy policy generators on the internet.

Some are free and others come at a price. Some are not GDPR compliant privacy policies.

Please accept marketing cookies to view this video

GDPR privacy policy example: TermsFeed is one provider of online privacy policies. In this video, they explain why you need a privacy policy in a simple and comprehensible manner in 1:40 minutes.

However, if you use a generator, be sure to consider carefully all of the information to include in your policy and edit the privacy policy template accordingly.

Having an incorrect privacy policy is as bad, if not worse, as not having one at all.

Also, be sure to do your research on all applicable laws and requirements.

Be aware that some geographically defined laws can, in practice, be global.

However, if you use a generator, be sure to check that it complies with the EU General Data Protection Regulation and the ePrivacy Directive. These laws are applicable not only to websites operated from the EU, but also all websites in the world, that have visitors from the EU.

There are many different ways you can use our services – to search for and share information, to communicate with other people or to create new content. When you share information with us, for example by creating a Google Account , we can make those services even better – to show you more relevant search results and ads, to help you connect with people or to make sharing with others quicker and easier . As you use our services, we want you to be clear how we’re using information and the ways in which you can protect your privacy.

Our Privacy Policy explains:

  • What information we collect and why we collect it.
  • How we use that information.
  • The choices we offer, including how to access and update information.

We’ve tried to keep it as simple as possible, but if you’re not familiar with terms like cookies, IP addresses, pixel tags and browsers, then read about these key terms first. Your privacy matters to Google so whether you are new to Google or a long-time user, please do take the time to get to know our practices – and if you have any questions .

Information we collect

We collect information to provide better services to all of our users – from figuring out basic stuff like which language you speak, to more complex things like which ads you’ll find most useful , the people who matter most to you online , or which YouTube videos you might like.

We collect information in the following ways:

    Information you give us. For example, many of our services require you to sign up for a Google Account. When you do, we’ll ask for personal information , like your name, email address, telephone number or credit card to store with your account. If you want to take full advantage of the sharing features we offer, we might also ask you to create a publicly visible , which may include your name and photo.

    Information we get from your use of our services. We collect information about the services that you use and how you use them, like when you watch a video on YouTube, visit a website that uses our advertising services, or view and interact with our ads and content. This information includes:

    • Unique application numbers

      Certain services include a unique application number. This number and information about your installation (for example, the operating system type and application version number) may be sent to Google when you install or uninstall that service or when that service periodically contacts our servers, such as for automatic updates.

      Local storage

      We may collect and store information (including personal information) locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage (including HTML 5) and application data caches .

Information we collect when you are signed in to Google, in addition to information we obtain about you from partners, may be associated with your Google Account. When information is associated with your Google Account, we treat it as personal information. For more information about how you can access, manage or delete information that is associated with your Google Account, visit the section of this policy.

How we use information we collect

We use the information we collect from all of our services to provide , maintain , protect and improve them, to develop new ones , and to protect Google and our users . We also use this information to offer you tailored content – like giving you more relevant search results and ads.

We may use the name you provide for your Google Profile across all of the services we offer that require a Google Account. In addition, we may replace past names associated with your Google Account so that you are represented consistently across all our services. If other users already have your email, or other information that identifies you, we may show them your publicly visible Google Profile information, such as your name and photo.

If you have a Google Account, we may display your Profile name, Profile photo, and actions you take on Google or on third-party applications connected to your Google Account (such as +1’s, reviews you write and comments you post) in our services, including displaying in ads and other commercial contexts. We will respect the choices you make to limit sharing or visibility settings in your Google Account.

When you contact Google, we keep a record of your communication to help solve any issues you might be facing. We may use your email address to inform you about our services, such as letting you know about upcoming changes or improvements.

We use information collected from cookies and other technologies, like pixel tags , to improve your user experience and the overall quality of our services. One of the products we use to do this on our own services is Google Analytics. For example, by saving your language preferences, we’ll be able to have our services appear in the language you prefer. When showing you tailored ads, we will not associate an identifier from cookies or similar technologies with sensitive categories , such as those based on race, religion, sexual orientation or health.

Our automated systems analyze your content (including emails) to provide you personally relevant product features, such as customized search results, tailored advertising, and spam and malware detection.

Accessing and updating your personal information

Whenever you use our services, we aim to provide you with access to your personal information . If that information is wrong, we strive to give you ways to update it quickly or to delete it – unless we have to keep that information for legitimate business or legal purposes. When updating your personal information, we may ask you to verify your identity before we can act on your request.

We may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup systems).

Where we can provide information access and correction, we will do so for free, except where it would require a disproportionate effort. We aim to maintain our services in a manner that protects information from accidental or malicious destruction. Because of this, after you delete information from our services, we may not immediately delete residual copies from our active servers and may not remove information from our backup systems.

Information we share

We do not share personal information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of Google unless one of the following circumstances applies:

    With your consent

    We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Google when we have your consent to do so. We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information .

  • With domain administrators

    Other useful privacy and security related materials

    Further useful privacy and security related materials can be found through Google’s policies and principles pages , including:

    • Information about our technologies and principles , which includes, among other things, more information on
    • A page that explains what data is shared with Google when you visit websites that use our advertising, analytics and social products.
    • The tool, which makes it easy to review your key privacy settings.
    • Google’s , which provides information on how to stay safe and secure online.

    Example

    "access to your personal information"

    For example, with Google Dashboard you can quickly and easily see some of the data associated with your Google Account.

    Example

    "ads you’ll find most useful"

    For example, if you frequently visit websites and blogs about gardening, you may see ads related to gardening as you browse the web.

    Example

    "advertising services"

    For example, if you frequently visit websites and blogs about gardening that show our ads, you may start to see ads related to this interest as you browse the web.

    Example

    "and other sensors"

    Your device may have sensors that provide information to assist in a better understanding of your location. For example, an accelerometer can be used to determine things like speed, or a gyroscope to figure out direction of travel.

    Example

    "collect information"

    This includes information like your usage data and preferences, Gmail messages, G+ profile, photos, videos, browsing history, map searches, docs, or other Google-hosted content.

    Example

    "combine personal information from one service with information, including personal information, from other Google services"

    For example, when you’re signed in to your Google Account and search on Google, you can see search results from the public web, along with pages, photos, and Google+ posts from your friends and people who know you or follow you on Google+ may see your posts and profile in their results.

    Example

    "connect with people"

    For example, you could get suggestions of people you might know or want to connect with on Google+, based on the connections you have with people on other Google products, like Gmail and people who have a connection with you may see your profile as a suggestion.

    Example

    "credit card"

    Whilst we currently don’t ask for a credit card during sign up, verifying your age through a small credit card transaction is one way to confirm that you meet our age requirements in case your account was disabled after you have entered a birthday indicating you are not old enough to have a Google Account.

    Example

    "We may share aggregated, non-personally identifiable information publicly"

    When lots of people start searching for something, it can provide very useful information about particular trends at that time.

    Example

    "Wi-Fi access points and cell towers"

    For example, Google can approximate your device’s location based on the known location of nearby cell towers.

    Example

    "more relevant search results"

    For example, we can make search more relevant and interesting for you by including photos, posts, and more from you and your friends.
