Your privacy is important to Torch 3D, Inc. ("we", " us"). This privacy policy ("Policy") applies to the website located at Torch3d.com (the "Site") and our mobile application(s) (the "App") any sensors on your mobile device on which the App is installed (collectively, " Devices") and tells you how personal information is collected, used, disclosed, and protected by us. The Site, App, and Devices are collectively referred to as the "Services". By using the Services, you consent that we may process the data that we collect from you in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you obtain your use of the Services in connection with the services offered by a third party, the individual terms of that third party's contract with us may further restrict our collection or use of your personal information more than what is described in this Policy.
Changes to This Policy
We may change this Policy from time to time. If we make any changes to this Policy, we will change the "last updated" date above. If there are material changes to this Policy and you have an active account with us, we will notify you more directly. We encourage you to check this Policy whenever you use any of Services to understand how your personal information is used.
Information Collected
We collect information from you in various ways when you use our Services. We may also supplement this information with information from other companies. We collect two general types of information, namely personal information and aggregate data. As used in this Policy, the term " personal information" means information that specifically identifies an individual (such as a name and email address), and demographic and other information when directly linked to information that can identify an individual.
Our definition of personal information does not include " aggregate data". Aggregate data is information we collect about a group or category of services or users from which individual user identities have been removed. In other words, no personal information is included in aggregate data. Aggregate data helps us understand trends in our users' needs so that we can better consider new features or otherwise tailor our Services.
The following are the specific types of information we collect from you.
Information You Give Us. We collect information you give us on our Site and our App, and when you register for and use our Services, such as account name and preferred name. We also collect information from Devices. Examples include the following: device type, OS version, browser version if detected, IP address, and geolocation.
Registration and Profile Information. When you register to use our Services or update your profile, we may collect various kinds of information about you including, your name and email address; your title, company and other profile information you provide; demographic information; and information you upload like photos, files, and documents.
Contact Information. We collect the email addresses you provide for contacts you enter or upload. When you choose to collaborate or share files, models, prototypes, projects or other content (collectively, "Content") with others, we also collect email addresses you provide to email invitations to those individuals on your behalf.
Device and Activity Information. When you use your Device with an App or the Site, data recorded on your Device about your activity is transferred from your Device to our servers. This data is stored and used to provide the Service and is associated with your account. We also collect information about any rehabilitee protocols you may be using.
Payment Information. If you choose to use a paid account or service, our payment processing vendor collects your credit card information and billing address.
Submissions. From time to time we may use surveys or promotions requesting personal or demographic information and customer feedback.
Automatically Collected Information. We automatically receive certain types of information when you interact with our Services. For example, it is standard for your web browser to automatically send information to every web site you visit, including ours. That information includes your computer's IP address, access times, your browser type and language, and referring web site addresses. We may also collect information about the type of operating system you use, your account activity, and files and pages accessed or used by you.
Cookies and Web Beacons. We may also use certain kinds of technology such as cookies and web beacons to collect information. Among other things, the use of cookies and web beacons enables us to improve our Site and emails by seeing which areas and features are most popular, to count the number of computers accessing our web site, to personalize and improve your experience, to record your preferences, and to allow you to visit our Site without re-entering your member ID and/or password. A cookie is a small amount of data which is sent to your browser from a web site's computers and stored on your computer's hard drive. Most browsers automatically accept cookies as the default setting. You can modify your browser setting to reject our cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie by editing your browser options. However, if a browser is set not to accept cookies or if a user rejects a cookie, some portions of the web site and services may not function properly. For example, you may not be able to sign in and access certain web page features or services. A web beacon is an electronic image, also called a "gif," that may be used on our web pages to deliver cookies, count visits and compile statistics on usage and campaign effectiveness or in our emails to tell if an email has been opened and acted upon.
