Privacy Policy

Date: 2024/01/18

Privacy Policy for the SizeMe application and the web portal SizeMe.app.

Preamble

In this policy we list the kinds of information we collect :

The information you give us when you sign up, like your email address or phone number
The username of your followers or followed.
Information from the phone, computer, or tablet you use our Products on, like what kind it is and what version of our app you’re using
Information from the application: your measures, your searches, your reviews and comments, and the interaction with other comments.
The largest storage volume is occupied by measurements, comments and size guides. Also the photos you upload, including the avatar.

Information with special protections

Apart from your brand and model of device, country, body measurements, the pattern of clothing you choose and the year (optionally month) of birth, which we consider non-sensitive data, we do not process data that may be sensitive such as ethnic origin or religion. Adding your name and phone number to your profile is optional, as we aim to keep your privacy as protected as you want it to be.

Examples of why we collect and receive information

Security of our Products

For example, we collect information to monitor attempted attacks on our systems, such as overloading our servers with traffic. Also, if we see someone without a confirmed account trying to load too many data, then we can take action to prevent it.

Safety and integrity

By way of example, if someone violates our terms and policies, we may share information with law enforcement if we believe there is a real risk of death or imminent physical injury.

Metadata

· Information about the content itself, like the location where a photo was taken or the date a file was created

· Information about the message itself, like the type of message or the date and time it was sent

· Language

· Time zone

· Mobile phone number, if you provide it (optional)

· IP address para estimación del país

We do not use "cookies" in the app, only if you enter the corporate website or to upload size guides, but in this specific case they are technical "cookies" necessary for the app to function.

How do we use your information?

Basics

Here are some of the ways we use your information:

· Allows us to respond to searches you make

· We personalize your experience,

· We improve our products by applying information about how you use them and what happens on your device when our app doesn't work.

To protect information linked to individual users, we pseudonymize, aggregate, or anonymize information to prevent it from identifying you.

How we use information to improve our service

We’re always trying to make our apps better and create new ones with the features you want. Information we collect from you helps us learn how.

We use information we collect to:

See if a product is working correctly
Troubleshoot and fix it when it’s not
Test out new products and features to see if they work

How we use IP related information

We use via IP address to calculate your general location in order to establish the country in which you use the service in terms of market.

Providing measurement, analytics and business services

Our measurement and analysis services aim to carry out specific market studies through the measurements of our users through an anonymous process.

Communicating with you

We communicate with you in a few different ways. For example:

We send messages about the service, for passwordless access for instance, using the email you register to your account
We let you know about our policies and terms of service
We send occasional push messages with your permit
When you contact us with questions, we reply to your email

How is your information shared?

Public content

Some of your information and activity are always public. This includes your social username, profile picture and published opinions (or responses).

When content is public, it can be seen in the app by any registered user.

We, you and people using our app can send public content (like your profile photo, or information you share) to anyone on, across or off our app. For example, users can share it in a public forum, or it can appear in search results on the internet.

How do we share information with third parties?

We do not share your information as an individual profile unless you request it, for example to engage in trading with an external provider. If we generate reports for a third party interested in market intelligence, they will be about the number and type of general demographic profiles and interests, but not individual information.

Third parties who offer goods or services on our app and commerce services platforms

When you choose to make a transaction, or otherwise choose to share information with a seller, creator, fundraiser, charity, payment services provider or commerce services platform, we share information with them and with any providers acting on their behalf.

Depending on how you interact with them, they receive:

Information to complete your transaction, like order, payment, contact and shipping information
Information to help ensure the security of the transaction, like information about your device or connection
Any information required by applicable regulation
Other information you choose to share with them

For example, if you make a purchase from an integrated marketplace using checkout, the shop will receive information to complete your transaction. This may include your order items, your contact details and shipping information. If the shop uses a payment services provider, such as PayPal, to facilitate the transaction, the provider will receive the transaction amount, a transaction description (to appear on your credit card statement) and your payment card information, such as cardholder name, card number, expiration date and billing address.

What is our legal basis for processing your information, and what are your rights?

You have rights to view and download the information we have about you
You also can delete your account or specific account information, if you want to

Under applicable data protection law, companies must have a legal basis to process personal data. When we talk about "processing personal data," we mean the ways we collect, use and share your information, as we described in the other sections of this Policy above.

What is our legal basis?

We rely on different legal bases to process your information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. Depending on the circumstances, we rely on different legal bases when processing your same information for different purposes. For each legal basis below, we describe why we process your information.

You also have particular rights available to you depending on which legal basis we use, and we’ve explained these here. No matter what legal basis applies, you always have the right to request access to, rectification of and deletion of your information. To exercise your rights, see the "What are your rights?" section.

We process information for the following legal bases:

Performance of a contract

We process your information that’s necessary to fulfil our contracts with you. This means providing the services laid out in the Terms and Conditions that are required to be accepted in order to register as user.

Consent

We process your information with your consent, provided during the user registration procedure. You can withdraw consent at any time by deleting your account from within the app.

Legitimate interests

We process your information as necessary for our legitimate interests. Our interests include providing an innovative, personalised, safe and profitable service to our users, and responding to legal requests. But we won’t process your information if your interests, or your fundamental rights and freedoms, override ours. Where we rely on legitimate interests, you have the right to object to our use of certain information.

Legal obligation

We process information as necessary for us to comply with a legal obligation.

Public interest

We process information as necessary for the public interest, such as conducting research or promoting safety, security and integrity.

You have the following rights under GDPR and other relevant data protection laws:

Access and correct information

View and manage your information

Withdraw consent

Where we rely on your consent to process your information, you can withdraw your consent at any time by deleting your account from within the app. If you choose to withdraw your consent this will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Port your information

Erase your information

You have the right to request that we erase your information, by deleting your account from within the app.

If you request that we delete your account or content, it may take up to 90 days to delete your information after we begin the account deletion process or receive a content deletion request. After the information is deleted, it may take us up to another 90 days to remove it from backups and disaster recovery.

Unsubscribe

You can use the "unsubscribe" link in our marketing communications to stop us from using your information for that direct marketing, which, in any case, had been initiated by you. We do not send direct marketing communications by default.

Object

You can object to our processing your information when we rely on legitimate interests or perform a task in the public interest. We will consider several factors when assessing an objection, including:

Our users' reasonable expectations
The benefits and risks to you, us, other users
Other available means to achieve the same purpose that may be less invasive and do not require disproportionate effort

Unless we find that we have compelling legitimate grounds for this processing which are not outweighed by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, or the processing is needed for legal reasons, your objection will be upheld. In that case, we will cease processing your information.

Make a complaint

You also can lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

How long do we keep your information?

Basics

We keep information for as long as we need it to provide a feature or service
But you can request that we delete your information
We’ll delete that information unless we have to keep it for something else, like for legal reasons

We keep information as long as we need it to provide our Products, comply with legal obligations or protect our or other’s interests. We decide how long we need information on a case-by-case basis. Here’s what we consider when we decide:

If we need it to operate or provide our service

For example, we keep profile information, photos you’ve posted (and not deleted) and security information for the lifetime of your account.

How long we need to retain the information to comply with certain legal obligations

Basics

For example, we retain information for as long as we need it for:

A legal request or obligation, including obligations to comply with applicable law
A governmental investigation
A legal claim, complaint, litigation or regulatory proceedings

We retain information for as long as it is necessary to provide our service, comply with our legal obligations, and protect our interests or those of other parties. We decide how long we need the information on a case-by-case basis. When deciding, we consider whether we need the information to operate or provide our services. For example, we retain profile information, photos you've posted (and not deleted), and security information for as long as your account is active.

Why we may preserve your information longer

Your information, including financial transaction data related to purchases or money transfers made on our Products, may be preserved and accessed for a longer time period if it’s related to any of the following:

A legal request or obligation
A governmental investigation
An investigation of possible violations of our terms or policies
To prevent harm
For safety, security and integrity purposes
To protect ourselves, including our rights, property or products
If it’s needed in relation to a legal claim, complaint, litigation or regulatory proceedings

In some cases, we may preserve your information based on the above reasons even after you request deletion of your account or some of your content. We may also preserve information from accounts that have been disabled and content that has been removed for violations of our terms and policies.

Examples of why we might preserve your information

To respond to a legal request

For example, we might preserve your information after you delete your account when we receive a valid legal request, such as a preservation order or search warrant, related to your account.

To comply with applicable law

For example, we preserve certain information about purchases or transactions associated with an account, in line with accounting obligations.

For safety, security and integrity purposes

For example, if we disable an account for violating our terms or policies, we preserve information about that user to prevent them from opening a new account.

We also might preserve some of your account information as part of our review of suspicious activity. This includes any suspicious activity associated with our financial products, like suspected money laundering or terrorist funding.

For litigation

We may preserve your information where we deem it necessary for reasons related to a legal claim or complaint. For example, we may be required to defend ourselves in legal proceedings in a claim related to your information.

How do we transfer information?

Generalidades

Because we connect people all around the world, we need to transfer information all around the world, too
When we do this, we follow international regulations to keep your information safe

Why is information transferred to other countries?

As a global platform, with users, partners and employees around the world, transfers are necessary for a variety of reasons, including:

So we can operate and provide the services stated in the Terms and Conditions and this Policy. This includes allowing you to share information and connect with your family and friends around the globe.
So we can fix, analyze and improve our Products

Where is information transferred?

Information controlled by us will be transferred or transmitted to, or stored and processed in:

Places we have infrastructure or data centers, including the United States, Ireland, Denmark, Germany and Sweden, among others
Countries where Amazon AWS is available
Other countries where our service providers and other third parties are located outside of the country where you live, for purposes as described in this Policy

How do we safeguard your information?

We rely on "appropriate mechanisms" for international data transfers.

We also make sure that appropriate safeguards are in place whenever we transfer your information. For example, we encrypt your information when it’s in transit over public networks to protect it from unauthorized access.

Appropriate Mechanisms we use for global data transfers

We rely on appropriate mechanisms for international data transfers. For example, for information we collect:

We rely on decisions from the European Commission by which they recognise that certain countries and territories outside of the European Economic Area ensure an adequate level of protection for personal data. These decisions are referred to as “adequacy decisions.” We transfer the information we collect from the European Economic Area to Argentina, Israel, New Zealand, Switzerland, the UK and, where the decision is applicable, Canada in reliance on an adequacy decision.
In other circumstances, we rely on standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission (and the equivalent standard contractual clauses for the UK, where appropriate) or on derogations provided for under applicable law to transfer information to a third country. For example, there is currently no adequacy decision in respect of the United States, so we rely on standard contractual clauses when transferring data to Amazon AWS.
In addition to the standard contractual clauses, we also apply supplemental measures to ensure equivalent protection of your data when transferred.

How do we respond to legal requests, comply with applicable law and prevent harm?

When we respond to legal requests

We respond to legal requests where we’re required by law to do so, and at times where we're not compelled by law, but a response:

May affect users in that jurisdiction, and
Is consistent with internationally recognized standards

How we promote safety, security and integrity

We share your information with law enforcement, government authorities and other third parties (including industry peers) when we have a good faith belief it’s necessary to detect, prevent and address a variety of situations, such as:

Unauthorized use of our systems
Violations of our terms and policies
Investigating suspicious activity
Protecting ourselves, including our rights, property, personnel or Products
Preventing abuse, fraud, or other harmful or illegal activity, on and off our Products
Protecting you or others, including as part of investigations or regulatory inquiries
Emergency situations, such as risk of death or imminent bodily harm

Unauthorized use of our systems

For example, if you unlawfully collect user data, we may share your information to defend ourselves against claims or in litigation.

Violations of our terms and policies

For example, if you post threatening or harmful content, we may share your information to protect ourselves and others. This can include blocking your access to certain features or disabling your account.

How will you know the policy has changed?

We'll notify you before we make material changes to this Policy. You’ll have the opportunity to review the revised Policy before you choose to continue using our Products.
