APRANN PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated:
10/28/2022
This Privacy Policy describes how Aprann and our subsidiaries
and affiliated companies (collectively, “Aprann,” “we,”
“our,”
or “us”) collect, use, and disclose information about you. This
Privacy Policy applies to information we collect when you
access or use our websites, other online products, and
services, that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, our
“Services”), or when you otherwise interact with us, such as through
our customer support channels, or on social media pages. On
certain pages on our Services, we may offer you the
opportunity to make a donation in support of one or more of
our charitable partner(s). By
clicking one of the links, you will be taken to third party
sites which have separate and independent privacy policies and
terms of service. We therefore have no responsibility or
liability for the content and activities of these linked
sites. We may provide different or additional notices of our
privacy practices with respect to certain products or
services, in which case this Privacy Policy will not
apply.
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we
make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the
top of this policy. We may also provide you with additional
notice (such as by adding a statement to the Services or
sending you a notification), such as in connection with making
material changes to this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to
review this Privacy Policy regularly to stay informed about
our information practices and the choices available to
you.

We engage others to provide analytics services across the

identifiers, and other technologies to collect information
about your use of our Services and other websites and
applications, including your IP address, web browser, pages
viewed, time spent on pages, or links clicked. This

determine the popularity of certain content, and better
understand your online activity.
TRANSFER OF INFORMATION TO THE UNITED STATES AND OTHER

that are equivalent to those of your home jurisdiction. Where
required by law, we provide adequate protection for the
transfer of personal data in accordance with applicable
law.

rejecting cookies could affect the availability and
functionality of our Services.

business relations.
Data Retention
We store personal data associated with your account for as
long as your account remains active. We store other personal
data for as long as necessary to carry out the purposes for
which we originally collected it and for other legitimate
business purposes, including to meet our legal, regulatory, or
