Cookies

A cookie is a small piece of data that is stored on your computer or mobile device. Like many websites, we use cookies and similar technologies to collect website usage data and to operate our services. Cookies are required for most parts of our services such as taking surveys, accessing your member portal and requesting payment. We use both session cookies and persistent cookies to better understand how you interact with our services, to monitor aggregate usage patterns, and to personalize and otherwise operate our services such as by providing account security, preventing fraud, and remembering your website preferences. We do not support the Do Not Track browser option.

Survey Data

We collect your information for research purposes only. We may collect information such as, but not limited to, personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, data concerning health or sexual orientation. To collect this information we ask for explicit consent below. You may freely withdraw at any time by emailing privacy@savvyshares.com.

Location Information

We require information about your signup and current location, which we get from signals such as your IP address or device settings to prevent fraud and to securely and reliably set up and maintain your account.

Subject to your settings, we may collect, use, and store additional information about your location—such as your current precise position to operate or personalize our services including with more relevant surveys and additional research opportunities.

SavvyConnect Behavior Tracking

For members who download and install our SavvyConnect desktop or mobile applications, we collect information for research purposes aimed at understanding how you interact with your device and browse the internet, the types of entertainment you watch or advertisements you see, the searches you conduct, etc. To collect this information we ask for explicit consent below.

How Do We Collect It?

Survey Data

We will send you surveys and ask you to fill out online questionnaires. Data entered into these questionnaires will be recorded and analyzed by researchers at the individual and aggregate level.

SavvyConnect Behavioral Tracking

If you install SavvyConnect and participate in web tracking, we will collect all data that you enter into websites and mobile applications, subject to the exceptions set forth below. For example, we capture the URLs of websites that you visit, the length of time you are on each site, and date and timestamps for each activity. We also collect search terms that you may enter into your browser, search engine, or a website or mobile app search function, regardless of the contents of your search (e.g., if you insert personal information into the search field, we will capture that information, whether it is medical, biographical, or otherwise).

We do not collect data that you enter into secured third party form fields (e.g., if you make a purchase on a secure website, we do not collect the contact details and payment card data that are entered.) We also will collect information about your interaction with a site or mobile application, such as whether you have engaged a chat feature, contacted customer service, signed up to receive newsletters, or logged onto your email or other online account. We do not collect the contents of your chat, email, or other customer service correspondence; rather, we only identify whether you have activated certain features.

We will track this data for each device on which you install our software, and we may reference the data as associated with a particular device or aggregate data among various sets of users. We will collect your device ID, assign a unique ID to your device, and associate all information that we collect about you with that ID. If you install our software on a mobile device, we will collect your mobile device’s location information with your permission.

We use the information we collect to identify online trends. We share the information we collect through our software with our business clients and partners. If you participate, you may be eligible for paid research opportunities. To disable our software’s information collection, uninstall it from your device. For additional information about our use of the information that we collect about you, please see our website Privacy Policy.

“Do Not Track” Notifications

Some browsers allow you to automatically notify websites you visit not to track you using a “Do Not Track” signal. We currently do not alter our practices when we receive a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” you may visit www.allaboutdnt.com.

How Can You Access, Update Or Delete Your Data
