At Pocket Informant, your right to privacy is one of our primary concerns. This Privacy Policy describes the guidelines we use to protect the information we collect about you during your visit to our web site, our support site, and from our services.
Informant Sync
We take security of your data very seriously. Our servers are run on the Google App Engine service which ensure automatic scalability and security. All communication with the server is via SSL. Passwords are encrypted. The platform our servers run on have received SSAE-16 security certification which they have to re-certify and audit yearly. All data is encrypted at the server and in transmission.
Location Permissions and Use
If you grant permission for your location to be accessed, it will be used for the weather feature as well as the location field in events and tasks. The location is only accessed while you are using the app, unless you select the automatic option in weather settings.
Information we collect
At various times, we may requests personal information. This can be done while you are visiting our website or requesting support. Information we collect may include your name, address, telephone number, and email address. We do not store credit card info. We may use merchant services that store credit information for automatic subscription renewals. For example, Apple stores your credit information.
Furthermore during troubleshooting or support we may ask you to send us logging or databases. These logs contain behavioral information on what our software did in an audit-trail fashion to allow us to determine errors in logic or how we handle specific points of data. In some cases we may ask for databases to be able to test issues we cannot reproduce. These logs will also contain raw descriptions of database fields that include event, task, note information from your database.
Information Accessible by our apps
- If you setup the “email-to-task” feature the Informant app will have access to your emails. You control this access.
- If you connect Informant to your Calendar or Task account, Informant will have the ability to edit/update/delete/create Events and Tasks. This is all done strictly by your input as a user. You control this access.
- If you allow access to your contacts, Informant will have the ability to create/read/update/delete your contacts. You control this access.
What we do with this information
The requests for information allow Fanatic to provide services you have requested or to enhance your experience while visiting us or for support.
We will not sell your private information to any outside company for its use in marketing or solicitation. Fanatic may disclose your information in certain cases where we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe it is required by law, or .
Fanatic only sends newsletters and marketing emails to subscribers of our opt-in mailing lists. We do not send pure marketing emails to users who subscribe to our forums or who request support.
Fanatic may also use customer information on an aggregate basis to better understand our users and to improve our services. Aggregate statistics may also be disclosed to potential advertisers and/or business partners.
Information provided for troubleshooting and support purposes such as logs and databases are deleted locally from machines after being used to solve the problem. They may stay on various server backups as our service providers (Helpshift and Google App Engine for email) policies allow. Usually the period is for 3 months as backups are rotated.
If you do not desire for Fanatic to access private information in these logs/databases but you do require support, you may send yourself the logs and databases (in SQLite format usually), edit out the private information before sending to us.
The use of “cookies”
Fanatic does use cookies. Cookies are small information files stored by your browser on your hard drive that allow us to provide advanced features such as personalization and shopping carts. If you wish, you can change your browser settings to disable cookies, but please note that cookies must be enabled on your browser in order to make a purchase at eSellerate and participate in our forums.
