This Privacy Policy explains how Collabar (“Collabar”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use the Collabar mobile application and related services (collectively, the “Service”).
1) Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly, information generated as you use the Service, and (where applicable) information from third parties.
- Account information: name, email address, phone number, password (or authentication tokens), role (e.g., business/influencer).
- Profile information: username, profile photo, bio, categories, social handles, location (if you choose to provide it).
- Business and payment-related details (if applicable): business name, billing details, transaction metadata (we may rely on payment processors; we do not intentionally store full card details).
- Communications: messages, support requests, feedback, and any files or content you submit through the Service.
- Usage and device data: app interactions, pages/screens viewed, IP address, device identifiers, operating system, app version, language, and crash logs/diagnostics.
- Location information: approximate location from IP and precise location only if you grant device permissions.
2) How We Use Information
- Provide, operate, and improve the Service.
- Create and manage accounts, authentication, and security.
- Enable collaborations, discovery, messaging, orders, and other core features.
- Personalize content and recommendations.
- Communicate with you about updates, support, and service-related notices.
- Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and technical issues.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
3) Cookies and Similar Technologies
We may use cookies, local storage, SDKs, and similar technologies to remember preferences, maintain sessions, measure performance, and improve the Service. You can control cookies through your browser or device settings, but some features may not function properly.
4) Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:
- With service providers: hosting, analytics, customer support, communications, security, and payment processing.
- With other users: information you choose to make public (e.g., profile details) and information shared as part of collaborations.
- For legal and safety reasons: to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights/safety, and investigate misuse.
- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets (with appropriate safeguards).
5) Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary depending on the type of data and why it is collected.
6) Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect your information. No system is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7) Your Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to certain processing of your personal information.
- Account settings: you can update certain profile information within the app.
- Permissions: you can enable/disable device permissions (e.g., location) via device settings.
- Marketing communications: you can opt out where applicable by following instructions in a message or contacting us.
- Requests: you can contact us to exercise applicable privacy rights.
8) Children’s Privacy
The Service is not intended for children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us so we can take appropriate action.
9) International Data Transfers
Your information may be processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards to protect your information when transferred internationally.
10) Third-Party Links and Services
The Service may include links to third-party sites or integrations (e.g., social platforms). Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this one.
11) Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will revise the “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
