  1. Data Collection

    We collect certain information about you when you visit our App. This information may personally identify you or have the potential to personally identify you (“Personal Information”). This section describes the Personal Information we collect and the sources of that information.

    Information We Collect
    • Identifiers: We may collect your email address, IP Address, device ID, third-party account information or other similar identifiers. We may also collect any other Personal Information that you provide to us, such as social media identifier or language preference.
    • User Activity: We may collect information regarding your interaction with the Services or our partners services, including time of visit, the timestamp of purchases, purchase amounts, vendor information, credit balances, withdrawal history, pages visited, links clicked, emails opened, and the pages that led or referred you to our Services. We may also collect information automatically from your device, such as device type, operating system name and version, device manufacturer and model, language, plug-ins, and add-ons.
    • Geolocation Data: We may collect your physical location or infer your physical location based on your IP address or other network or voluntarily provided information.
    • Public Information Observed from Blockchains: We collect data from activity that is publicly visible and/or accessible on blockchains. This may include blockchain addresses and information regarding transfers of bitcoin, including the public key of destination nodes on the Lightning Network, which may then be associated with other data you have provided to us.
    • Information Collected from Third-Party Companies: We may receive Personal and/or Anonymous Data about you from companies that offer their products and/or services for use in conjunction with our Service or whose products and/or services may be linked from our Service. For example, third-party wallet providers provide us with your blockchain address and certain other information you choose to share with those wallets providers. We may add this to the data we have already collected from or about you through our Service.
    • Log Files: As is true of most websites and applications, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes IP addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (“ISP”), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamps, and clickstream data. We use this information to analyze trends, administer the Service, track users’ movements around the Service, and better tailor our Services to our users’ needs. For example, some of the information may be collected so that when you visit the Service, it will recognize you and the information can be used to personalize your experience.
    • Cookies: Like many online services, we use cookies to collect information. We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to analyze how users interact with our Service, make improvements to our product quality, and provide users with a more personalized experience.
    • How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals: Our systems do not currently recognize “do not track” signals or other mechanisms that might enable Users to opt out of tracking on our site.
    • Analytics Services: In addition to the tracking technologies we place like Cookies, other companies may set their own cookies or similar tools when you use the Services. This includes third-party analytics services (“Analytics Services”) that we engage to help analyze how users use the Services. The information generated by the Cookies or other technologies about your use of the Services (the “Analytics Information”) is transmitted to the Analytics Services. The Analytics Services use Analytics Information to compile reports on user activity, which we may receive on an individual or aggregate basis.
