Introduction*

Unless otherwise indicated by AppLovin, when you use the Services as an advertiser, media buyer, ad agency, demand-side platform, merchant, another provider of advertisements, or any other entity that bids on ad inventory or serves ads through the Services (individually, “you” or “your” and collectively, the “Demand Partners”), you must adhere to these AppLovin Policies for Demand Partners (the “Policies”).  These Policies apply in addition to any other policies or agreements governing your use of the Services, including the AppLovin Terms of Use Agreement.

AppLovin may update these Policies at any time by posting the updated version on the AppLovin website.  If an update includes material changes, AppLovin will provide notice via email.  By continuing to use the Services, you agree to the updated Policies.

As of SDK versions 13.0 and later, if any Property within your publisher network initializes or uses any AppLovin SDK in any way or otherwise uses any aspect of the Services in connection with a child, you are in violation of these Policies and the AppLovin Terms of Use Agreement and your account(s) may be subject to immediate termination.  

In addition, if any Property within your publisher network is exclusively designed for or exclusively directed to children, or knowingly passes personal information from children, you are in violation of these Policies and the AppLovin Terms of Use Agreement and your account(s) may be subject to immediate termination.

The Services allow for transactions in real time, and bids and offers compete simultaneously against multiple other bids and offers.

AppLovin makes no guarantee regarding the level of impressions of ads, the timing of delivery of such impressions or the amount of any resulting payment to be made.

Enforcement

Any actual or suspected violation of these Policies (or any agreement governing your use of the Services, including the AppLovin Terms of Use Agreement) may result, in AppLovin’s sole discretion, in AppLovin blocking or limiting ads from appearing against your Property, the suspension or termination of your account or access to the Services, the imposition of limits on your account or access to the Services, and/or the suspension, withholding, or termination of any payments potentially owed to you.

Privacy Policy Revision – October 30, 2024


Content

Effective Date: October 30, 2024

AppLovin Corporation (“we,” “us,” “our,” or “AppLovin”) operates a suite of tools for app developers and other businesses to automate and optimize the marketing and monetization of their platforms, products, or services by enabling the placement of different types of advertisements on digital properties including mobile apps, websites, and connected TV devices (collectively, the “Advertising Services” or “Services”).  As explained below, consumers interact with us in a few ways, primarily through advertisements served by AppLovin on behalf of advertisers.

The AppLovin Privacy Policy (this “Privacy Policy”) explains how we collect, use, and share information through our Services and advertising platform, and our corporate website at applovinstage.wpenginepowered.com (the “Website”), as well as your choices related to that information.

Our Advertising Services

This section describes the information we collect, use, and share through our Advertising Services.

General Information Collection and Use

If you are a consumer who downloads and uses an application which contains the AppLovin SDK or otherwise interacts with the Services through advertisements served within a digital property, we may collect certain information, including the following:

Device, App, and Browser Data

  • Device make, model, and operating system;
  • Device properties related to screen size, orientation, audio, battery, device memory usage, settings, and boot time;
  • Device settings related to accessibility features, font size, and theme; 
  • Carrier;
  • Name and properties of mobile application through which a consumer interacts with the Services;
  • Country, time zone, and locale settings (country and preferred language);
  • Network connection type and speed;
  • IP Address;
  • Internet browser user-agent used to access the Services;
  • HTTP header information;
  • Advertising IDs (IDFA/GAID/Amazon FOSAID);
  • Vendor IDs (IDFV);
  • App Set IDs; and
  • Advertising and tracking preferences and restrictions.

Application publishers may choose to share with us additional information including your age or year of birth, gender, email, phone number, and interest segments for purposes of their own direct ad serving.  We do not retain this data or pass it downstream to advertising partners.  Please see the applicable publisher’s privacy policy for more information about their use of first party data.

Advertisers (through the advertiser itself or through a third party service provider on behalf of such advertiser) may also share transactional or “event” data related to a consumer’s interaction with an application, such as information about the actions taken in an application like purchases or application installations.

Information Collection and Use Specific to e-Commerce Ads Only

If you are a consumer who interacts with the Services through an e-commerce platform or a merchant website, we may collect certain additional information (that you provided to the e-commerce platform or merchant, through a third party’s API, our SDK, pixel, or other similar technologies), including the following:

  • User IDs;
  • Shopping browsing behavior (e.g., views) and search history;
  • Records of products purchased or considered (e.g., added to cart, check out);
  • Purchasing histories; and
  • Information regarding user interactions with advertising partners and their merchant partners’ sites and advertisements.

How We Collect Your Information

This information may be collected automatically across mobile apps and devices or received from third-parties across different technologies over time. We may also combine information we collect with other information we derive through analytical techniques, and we will use that combined information to offer the Services. 

How We Use Your Information

We generally use the information we collect to:

  • Deliver the Services, maintain, and improve them, including our AI-powered advertising technology, and research and develop new ones;
  • Promote safety, security, and integrity of Services;
  • Provide measurement, analytics, and reporting; and
  • Comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

We use AI-powered advertising technology (sometimes referred to as “automated decision-making”) to help us improve our advertising products and Services and serve ads that are relevant and interesting to you. We use it in ways that do not produce legal or similarly significant effects on you (for example, by reordering how advertisements might appear when you visit a digital property such as a mobile app or a website).

Information Sharing

We may share information we collect or derive with third parties in the following contexts:

  • Service Providers. We transfer information to service providers, and other partners who support our business, such as providing technical infrastructure services, analyzing how our Services are used, measuring the effectiveness of ads and services, providing customer service, or facilitating payments. These partners must adhere to strict confidentiality obligations in a way that is consistent with this Privacy Policy and the agreements we enter into with them.
  • Affiliates. We may share information within the AppLovin family of companies for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy.
  • Advertising Partners. We share information with our third-party advertising partners, including advertisers, ad networks, exchanges, demand side platforms, merchants, other advertising partners (who aggregate their own demand sources), and ad optimization and measurement/attribution partners (e.g., mobile measurement partners or “MMPs”) to provide our clients with Advertising Services. This information may be used by such third-party partners to measure how effective ads are, show advertisements to end users for products and services that are more likely to appeal to them (a practice known as interest-based advertising or behavioral advertising), and to undertake web analytics to analyze traffic and other ad activity to improve the advertising experience.

    Unless otherwise noted in our partner list, each AppLovin advertising partner is an independent controller of your data. You can view a list of AppLovin advertising partners with whom we share your data here, current as of the date listed at the top of that page.

    If you do not want to receive interest-based advertisements, please see the “Manage Your Privacy Choices” section below. If you are located in the European Union, UK, or Switzerland, you may also see the “Additional Provisions for EU/UK/Swiss Individuals” section below for more options. If you are an individual resident of the U.S. states that have enacted comprehensive consumer privacy laws, you may also review the “U.S. Multistate Privacy Notice” section below for more options.

    Please note that the practices of our third-party advertising partners delivering advertisements through our Services are subject to those partners’ own privacy policies.
  • Regulatory or Legal Requirements. We may disclose information to governmental regulatory authorities as required by law, including for tax or accounting purposes, in response to their requests for such information or to assist in investigations. We may also disclose personal information to third parties in connection with claims, disputes, or litigation, when otherwise required by law or court order.
  • Safety and Terms Enforcement. We may disclose information if we determine, in our sole discretion, that its disclosure is necessary to protect the health, safety, or rights of you or any other person, protect against fraud, or enforce our legal rights, including contractual commitments made to us by third parties.
  • Business Transfers. We may disclose personal information as part of an organizational business transaction, such as a merger, acquisition, joint venture, financing, or sale of organizational assets and may transfer personal information to a third party as one of the business assets in such a transaction. We may also disclose personal information in the event of insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership.

Manage Your Privacy Choices:

To limit collection of information from mobile devices, please visit your device’s settings to set the “Limit Ad Track” or other similar features on your device. Additionally, you may opt-out of interest-based advertising within ads served by AppLovin. For detailed instructions, see How AppLovin Shows You Ads. You can also make choices about data collection for certain companies by visiting an industry consumer choice platform such as the NAI (https://optout.networkadvertising.org/) or DAA (https://optout.aboutads.info/).  You may still receive ads after limiting processing of information for interest-based advertising, but those ads may be less relevant to your interests.

Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information from, or serve advertisements to, children as defined and required by applicable laws. If you believe we have served an advertisement to a child or might have any personal information from or about a child, or if you believe a mobile application in which an AppLovin-served advertisement appeared may be designed for, directed to, or pass personal information knowingly from, children in violation of our policies, please contact us via email at [email protected].

Data Security and Retention

We implement reasonable measures to help secure the information we collect through the Services. We retain the data we collect through the Services for up to 2 years. Information is automatically purged from our system if the Services do not receive any updated information for a device in the last 2 years. Note that we will retain information in our systems for as long as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

If you are located in the European Union, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the following additional provisions apply to you.

Data Privacy Framework

AppLovin complies with the EU-U.S Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

AppLovin has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (EU-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from the European Union and the United Kingdom in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF.  AppLovin has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.

If you are an EU, UK, or Swiss individual, where we transfer your personal data to third party servicer providers (see above) who perform services for us or on our behalf, we are responsible for the processing of that data by them and shall remain liable if they process your personal data in a manner inconsistent with the DPF Principles, unless we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage. 

With respect to personal data received or transferred pursuant to the Data Privacy Framework, AppLovin is subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. In certain situations, AppLovin may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

In compliance with the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF, AppLovin commits to resolve DPF Principles-related complaints about our collection and use of your personal information. EU, UK, and Swiss individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding our handling of personal data received in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF should first contact AppLovin at [email protected]. AppLovin refers unresolved complaints to TRUSTe, an alternative dispute resolution provider based in the United States.  If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your DPF Principles-related complaint from us, or if we have not addressed your DPF Principles-related complaint to your satisfaction, please visit https://feedback-form.truste.com/watchdog/request for more information or to file a complaint.  These dispute resolution services are provided at no cost to you.

For complaints regarding DPF compliance not resolved by any of the other DPF mechanisms, you have the possibility, under certain conditions, to invoke binding arbitration. Further information can be found on the official DPF website.

Lawful Basis for Processing

On certain occasions, we process your personal data when it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, such as to provide services to you. We may also process your personal data to respond to your inquiries concerning our products and services.

On other occasions, we process your personal data where required by law. We may also process your personal data if necessary to protect your interests or the interests of a third party.

Additionally, we process your personal data when necessary to do so for fraud prevention, improving our network and services, and marketing our services to advertisers and publishers, where these interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.

If the processing of your personal data is necessary, we will generally ensure that consent has been obtained from you if there is no other lawful basis for such processing. You have the right to withdraw your consent to processing of personal data at any time.

If personal data covered by this Privacy Policy is to be used for a new purpose that is materially different from that for which the personal data was originally collected or subsequently authorized, or is to be disclosed to a non-agent third party in a manner not specified in this Privacy Policy, we will provide you with an opportunity to choose whether to have your personal data so used or disclosed. Requests to opt out of such uses or disclosures of personal data should be sent to us as specified in the “Contact” section below. Certain personal data, such as information about medical or health conditions, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, is considered “Sensitive Information”. AppLovin does not collect or seek to elicit “Sensitive Information”.

  • To request that we rectify or erase your personal data;
  • To request that we restrict or block the processing of your personal data;

Past Due Accounts — If your payment method fails or any account(s) becomes past due, AppLovin may take steps to collect past due amounts using any available mechanisms, including netting or offsetting any past due amounts from payments to you as a Publisher or due to you under any other agreement, referring the balance to collections, or pursuing the balance through other available means.  You agree to pay all expenses associated with any such mechanism, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, or collections’ fees, plus interest accruing on any past due amounts at the lesser of 1% per month or the lawful maximum.

b. Payments to Publishers

Payments to Publishers — For purposes of your use of the Services, AppLovin will provide you with access to an online reporting system.  You acknowledge and understand that AppLovin will pay you monthly earnings for valid impressions filled by AppLovin, calculated exclusively based on AppLovin’s accounting and the numbers in AppLovin’s online reporting system, and subject to the minimum applicable payment threshold (communicated through the Services).  Payments to you will be calculated by AppLovin based on valid impressions shown on your Property and the pricing associated with those impressions, which could take the form of cost per mille (CPM) or a percentage of Net Revenue (as defined below) as determined by AppLovin.  

  • Invalid Activity — For purposes of calculating these payments, AppLovin will, in its sole discretion, determine what constitutes valid impressions, clicks, requests, valid traffic, and valid activity.  Invalid activity includes: (i) spam, invalid impressions, or invalid clicks on Advertisements generated by any person, bot, automated program, or similar device, including through any clicks or impressions originating from your IP addresses, computers under your control, or similar self-click schemes; (ii) clicks solicited or impressions generated by payment of money and false representation; (iii) clicks or impressions co-mingled with a significant amount of the activity described in (i) and (ii) above; or (iv) any breach of this Agreement or the Publisher Policies.
  • Net Revenue — For purposes of calculating these payments, “Net Revenue” means revenues actually received by AppLovin from the sale, use, or other disposition of Advertisements displayed on your Property, less Taxes (as defined below), less any agency commissions, buyer fees, carrier and/or partner fees, and less any allowances actually made or taken for returns, cash discounts, or promotional allowances, but excluding other revenues indirectly earned, if applicable, for consulting, planning and targeting, copywriting, site building, account management, or technical modifications or technical innovations that may be charged by AppLovin to third parties from time to time.  The portion of Net Revenue received by User will generally be determined on the first Monday of each calendar month, on which day those revenues accrued to your account thirty (30) or more days earlier shall become eligible to be paid.

Subject to the foregoing and the minimum applicable payment threshold, AppLovin will pay your monthly earnings according to the payment details entered into your AppLovin account.  You acknowledge and affirm that you are the beneficial owner of the bank account(s) reflected in your payment details.  Depending upon those payment details, you may be responsible for certain bank fees associated with the transmission of payments from your AppLovin account.  As set forth above, to help ensure proper payment, you remain solely responsible for providing and maintaining accurate contact and payment information associated with your account.

Our Right to Withhold, Adjust, or Offset Payments — We may withhold, adjust, or offset payments to you based upon any amounts you owe to AppLovin under this Agreement or any other agreement, any amounts refunded or credited to Advertisers, any amounts arising from invalid activity, or if you engage in any actual or suspected violation of this Agreement or the Publisher Policies, in any case as determined by AppLovin in its sole discretion.

Payments from Other Networks — Your monthly earnings for impressions filled through the Services by other networks, as may be reflected in AppLovin’s online reporting system, will be paid in accordance with the policies and practices of those other networks. 

c. Miscellaneous Provisions

Taxes — You will pay any direct or indirect local, state, federal or foreign taxes, levies (including any equalization levy), duties, or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including but not limited to VAT, GST, excise, sales, use, consumption, and withholding taxes (collectively, “Taxes”) or other charges in connection with its use of the Platform, the Services, or the Software, including any Taxes AppLovin is legally obligated to charge.  AppLovin’s fees do not include Taxes and you agree to pay, in addition to such fees, all applicable Taxes imposed by any taxing authority in connection with your use of the Services.  You shall pay the full amount owed to AppLovin, inclusive of and without deduction for, any invoiced Taxes.  You may provide AppLovin with an exemption certificate or equivalent information acceptable to the relevant taxing authority, in which case AppLovin will not charge or collect the Taxes covered by such certificate.  Where a Publisher supplies a Property or Properties to AppLovin which is subject to any Taxes, Publisher shall be responsible for remitting the Taxes to the proper authorities.  Where applicable, Publisher agrees to GST self-billing for Singapore GST purposes and agrees to remit all GST output tax to the proper authorities, as required by law, as shown on each AppLovin self-billed invoice.  Upon request, Publisher shall provide AppLovin with its GST registration number.

Notice of Dispute and Required Informal Dispute Resolution Process

Except as provided below, if any dispute arises between us concerning or relating to this Agreement, the Platform, the Services, the Software, or our relationship, we agree to work in good faith to resolve the dispute informally by providing a written notice of dispute (the “Notice of Dispute”) to the applicable Party.  Any Notices of Dispute should be submitted to AppLovin’s Support Team.

Agreement to Arbitration; Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitration 

As set forth in the table below, the specific details of this Agreement to Arbitration, including the Governing Law, the Alternative Dispute Resolution Provider, the Applicable Rules, and the Designated Venue for any arbitral proceedings, each as defined in the tables below, depend upon your principal place of business and whether you are a Publisher or Advertiser.

If the Parties cannot informally resolve the dispute within sixty (60) days from receipt of the Notice of Dispute, the Parties agree to submit the dispute arising between them, including any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope, applicability, or enforceability of this Agreement to Arbitration, for determination through binding arbitration administered by the Alternative Dispute Resolution Provider pursuant to the Applicable Rules (each as defined in the tables below).  

The Parties agree that all arbitration proceedings, including witness interviews, written statements or other submissions, hearings, and the arbitration decision, shall be conducted or rendered in English.  At the beginning of any arbitration process under this Agreement, the Parties will select an arbitrator, fluent in English, by mutual agreement.  Such an arbitrator shall be a retired judge or justice or another qualified and impartial person that the Parties decide upon, and any such arbitrator shall be subject to disqualification on the same grounds as would apply to a judge or justice in a court proceeding.  If the Parties cannot agree on the selection of an arbitrator, the Parties will request a list of an odd number of potential arbitrators from the Alternative Dispute Resolution Provider and alternatively strike potential arbitrators, with AppLovin going first, until one potential arbitrator remains.  The Parties agree that the arbitrator shall administer and conduct any arbitration in accordance with California law, including the California Code of Civil Procedure, and that the arbitrator shall apply substantive and procedural California law to any dispute or claim, without reference to rules or principles of conflicts of law.  To the extent that the Applicable Rules conflict with California law, California law shall take precedence. The Parties agree that any arbitration under this Agreement shall be conducted exclusively in the Designated Venue.  The Parties agree that the decision of the arbitrator shall be rendered within twelve (12) months of the commencement of the arbitration (unless extended by the arbitrator for good cause), and that the decision shall be in a reasoned written opinion based solely upon the law governing the claims and defenses pleaded. The arbitrator’s decision regarding the claims shall be final and binding upon the Parties and shall be enforceable in any court having appropriate jurisdiction within the Designated Venue. The Parties will split equally the arbitrator’s fees and other costs imposed by the Alternative Dispute Resolution Provider, but each Party shall be responsible for paying such Party’s own attorneys’ fees and costs related to the arbitration.   

Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitration

This Section does not apply to the following types of claims or disputes, which you or we may bring in court in accordance with this Agreement: 

  • Your payment obligations under this Agreement or our right to offset or pursue past due accounts through collections or other means;
  • Claims of infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights;
  • Claims for violation of any applicable confidentiality provisions;
  • Claims for preliminary injunctive relief for any violations of this Agreement;
  • Claims to request enforcement or recognition of any award or order in any appropriate jurisdiction; and
  • Our right to suspend or terminate access to the Platform, the Services, or the Software.

In addition, you acknowledge and agree that you will not use the Services in connection with any Property or Advertisement exclusively designed for or exclusively directed to children as defined and required by applicable laws, or for any Property or Advertisement that could implicate the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (15 U.S.C. 6501, et seq.) (“COPPA”), laws of similar effect in any applicable jurisdiction, as well as any applicable app store policies.  You shall be solely responsible for ensuring that any Property or Advertisements comply with all age-related laws and applicable app store policies, including COPPA or laws of similar effect in any applicable jurisdiction.

6. Fees and Payments

a. Fees from Advertisers’ Use of the Services

Invoices to Advertisers — For purposes of your use of the Services, AppLovin will provide you with access to an online reporting system.  You acknowledge and understand that AppLovin will invoice you for Advertisements served through the Services exclusively based on the numbers in AppLovin’s online reporting system.  Unless otherwise indicated, payment will be due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date, and all amounts will be payable in U.S. Dollars regardless of your primary place of business.

Past Due Accounts — If your payment method fails or any account(s) becomes past due, AppLovin may take steps to collect past due amounts using any available mechanisms, including netting or offsetting any past due amounts from payments to you as a Publisher or due to you under any other agreement, referring the balance to collections, or pursuing the balance through other available means.  You agree to pay all expenses associated with any such mechanism, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, or collections’ fees, plus interest accruing on any past due amounts at the lesser of 1% per month or the lawful maximum.

b. Payments to Publishers

Payments to Publishers — For purposes of your use of the Services, AppLovin will provide you with access to an online reporting system.  You acknowledge and understand that AppLovin will pay you monthly earnings for valid impressions filled by AppLovin, calculated exclusively based on AppLovin’s accounting and the numbers in AppLovin’s online reporting system, and subject to the minimum applicable payment threshold (communicated through the Services).  Payments to you will be calculated by AppLovin based on valid impressions shown on your Property and the pricing associated with those impressions, which could take the form of cost per mille (CPM) or a percentage of Net Revenue (as defined below) as determined by AppLovin.  

  • Invalid Activity — For purposes of calculating these payments, AppLovin will, in its sole discretion, determine what constitutes valid impressions, clicks, requests, valid traffic, and valid activity.  Invalid activity includes: (i) spam, invalid impressions, or invalid clicks on Advertisements generated by any person, bot, automated program, or similar device, including through any clicks or impressions originating from your IP addresses, computers under your control, or similar self-click schemes; (ii) clicks solicited or impressions generated by payment of money and false representation; (iii) clicks or impressions co-mingled with a significant amount of the activity described in (i) and (ii) above; or (iv) any breach of this Agreement or the Publisher Policies.
  • Net Revenue — For purposes of calculating these payments, “Net Revenue” means revenues actually received by AppLovin from the sale, use, or other disposition of Advertisements displayed on your Property, less Taxes (as defined below), less any agency commissions, buyer fees, carrier and/or partner fees, and less any allowances actually made or taken for returns, cash discounts, or promotional allowances, but excluding other revenues indirectly earned, if applicable, for consulting, planning and targeting, copywriting, site building, account management, or technical modifications or technical innovations that may be charged by AppLovin to third parties from time to time.  The portion of Net Revenue received by User will generally be determined on the first Monday of each calendar month, on which day those revenues accrued to your account thirty (30) or more days earlier shall become eligible to be paid.

Subject to the foregoing and the minimum applicable payment threshold, AppLovin will pay your monthly earnings according to the payment details entered into your AppLovin account.  Depending upon those payment details, you may be responsible for certain bank fees associated with the transmission of payments from your AppLovin account.  As set forth above, to help ensure proper payment, you remain solely responsible for providing and maintaining accurate contact and payment information associated with your account.

Our Right to Withhold, Adjust, or Offset Payments — We may withhold, adjust, or offset payments to you based upon any amounts you owe to AppLovin under this Agreement or any other agreement, any amounts refunded or credited to Advertisers, any amounts arising from invalid activity, or if you engage in any actual or suspected violation of this Agreement or the Publisher Policies, in any case as determined by AppLovin in its sole discretion.

Payments from Other Networks — Your monthly earnings for impressions filled through the Services by other networks, as may be reflected in AppLovin’s online reporting system, will be paid in accordance with the policies and practices of those other networks. 

c. Miscellaneous Provisions

Taxes — You will pay any direct or indirect local, state, federal or foreign taxes, levies (including any equalization levy), duties, or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including but not limited to VAT, GST, excise, sales, use, consumption, and withholding taxes (collectively, “Taxes”) or other charges in connection with its use of the Platform, the Services, or the Software, including any Taxes AppLovin is legally obligated to charge.  AppLovin’s fees do not include Taxes and you agree to pay, in addition to such fees, all applicable Taxes imposed by any taxing authority in connection with your use of the Services.  You shall pay the full amount owed to AppLovin, inclusive of and without deduction for, any invoiced Taxes.  You may provide AppLovin with an exemption certificate or equivalent information acceptable to the relevant taxing authority, in which case AppLovin will not charge or collect the Taxes covered by such certificate.  Where a Publisher supplies a Property or Properties to AppLovin which is subject to any Taxes, Publisher shall be responsible for remitting the Taxes to the proper authorities.  Where applicable, Publisher agrees to GST self-billing for Singapore GST purposes and agrees to remit all GST output tax to the proper authorities, as required by law, as shown on each AppLovin self-billed invoice.  Upon request, Publisher shall provide AppLovin with its GST registration number.

Changes to Fees or Charges — AppLovin reserves the right to change its fees and to institute new charges at any time, upon prior notice, and to invoice for fees and/or make payments for earnings from any of our affiliates.

Agreement to Arbitration; Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitration 

As set forth in the table below, the specific details of this Agreement to Arbitration, including the Governing Law, the Alternative Dispute Resolution Provider, the Applicable Rules, and the Designated Venue for any arbitral proceedings, each as defined in the tables below, depend upon your principal place of business and whether you are a Publisher or Advertiser.

If the Parties cannot informally resolve the dispute within sixty (60) days from receipt of the Notice of Dispute, the Parties agree to submit the dispute arising between them, including any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope, applicability, or enforceability of this Agreement to Arbitration, for determination through binding arbitration administered by the Alternative Dispute Resolution Provider pursuant to the Applicable Rules (each as defined in the tables below).  

The Parties agree that all arbitration proceedings, including witness interviews, written statements or other submissions, hearings, and the arbitration decision, shall be conducted or rendered in English.  At the beginning of any arbitration process under this Agreement, the Parties will select an arbitrator, fluent in English, by mutual agreement.  Such an arbitrator shall be a retired judge or justice or another qualified and impartial person that the Parties decide upon, and any such arbitrator shall be subject to disqualification on the same grounds as would apply to a judge or justice in a court proceeding.  If the Parties cannot agree on the selection of an arbitrator, the Parties will request a list of an odd number of potential arbitrators from the Alternative Dispute Resolution Provider and alternatively strike potential arbitrators, with AppLovin going first, until one potential arbitrator remains.  The Parties agree that the arbitrator shall administer and conduct any arbitration in accordance with California law, including the California Code of Civil Procedure, and that the arbitrator shall apply substantive and procedural California law to any dispute or claim, without reference to rules or principles of conflicts of law.  To the extent that the Applicable Rules conflict with California law, California law shall take precedence. The Parties agree that any arbitration under this Agreement shall be conducted exclusively in the Designated Venue.  The Parties agree that the decision of the arbitrator shall be rendered within twelve (12) months of the commencement of the arbitration (unless extended by the arbitrator for good cause), and that the decision shall be in a reasoned written opinion based solely upon the law governing the claims and defenses pleaded. The arbitrator’s decision regarding the claims shall be final and binding upon the Parties and shall be enforceable in any court having appropriate jurisdiction within the Designated Venue. The Parties will split equally the arbitrator’s fees and other costs imposed by the Alternative Dispute Resolution Provider, but each Party shall be responsible for paying such Party’s own attorneys’ fees and costs related to the arbitration.   

Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitration

This Section does not apply to the following types of claims or disputes, which you or we may bring in court in accordance with this Agreement: 

  • Your payment obligations under this Agreement or our right to offset or pursue past due accounts through collections or other means;

  • Claims for violation of any applicable confidentiality provisions;
  • Claims for preliminary injunctive relief for any violations of this Agreement;
  • Claims to request enforcement or recognition of any award or order in any appropriate jurisdiction; and

U.S. Multistate Privacy Notice Revision – September 13, 2024


Content

Effective Date: September 13, 2024

Introduction

This U.S. Multistate Privacy Notice (the “Notice”) supplements the information contained in our Privacy Policy and applies only to individual residents (the “Covered Individual Residents”) of the U.S. states that have enacted comprehensive consumer privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”), the Colorado Privacy Act, the Connecticut Data Privacy Act, the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act, the Utah Consumer Privacy Act, and each of their associated regulations, as well as similar consumer privacy laws that may be enacted in the future (collectively, the “Applicable Laws”).  

This Notice addresses the specific disclosure requirements under the Applicable Laws and provides additional information about how we collect, use, share, and otherwise process Covered Individual Residents’ personal information, the rights of Covered Individual Residents in relation to that personal information, and the ways to exercise those rights.  You can find more information and details about AppLovin and our personal information collection and use practices in our Privacy Policy. Unless otherwise indicated, all terms in this Notice have the same meanings as defined in our Privacy Policy or as otherwise defined under the Applicable Laws.

*AppLovin does not collect or seek to elicit end users’ “sensitive personal information” as defined by the Applicable Laws.  This means that AppLovin does not collect social security numbers, drivers’ licenses, financial account or credit card numbers (except as provided by our business customers to us for payment processing purposes), precise geolocation, racial and ethnic characteristics, religious and philosophical beliefs, union membership, the contents of messages (mail, email, or text), mental or physical health condition or diagnosis, sex life or sexual orientation, genetic and biometric data, or personal data from a known child.

Selling or Sharing of Personal Information

AppLovin does not “sell” information as most people would commonly understand that term; AppLovin does not, and will not, disclose your personal information in direct exchange for money or some other form of payment.  However, AppLovin may “share” personal information about you for purposes of serving you with personalized ads or content, otherwise known as “interest-based advertising” or “cross-context behavioral advertising.”  Under the CCPA and similar state laws’ expansive definition of “sell,” certain advertising and analytics activities may constitute a sale.  For example:

  • When you use a mobile application, the publisher of that application may decide to serve you with interest-based ads.  If that application embeds AppLovin’s software, we’ll send a bid request that contains certain of your device information (if available) to our advertising demand side partners to enable their ads to be served to you based on your interests (which they derive from their own or other third-party advertising partners). Under the CCPA, passing device data in a bid request to our demand side partners is “sharing” under the CCPA and may be a “sale” of personal information.

The chart included above sets forth the categories of third parties with whom we have “shared” personal information within the last 12 months.  

Data Retention

As explained in our Privacy Policy, we retain the categories of personal information included in the chart above for up to 2 years.

Your Privacy Rights

As a Covered Individual Resident, you may be able to exercise the following rights in relation to the personal information that we may have collected about you, subject to certain limitations and requirements, including the verification of your identity and our right to retain information to comply with our legal obligations, among other circumstances.

Privacy Right Brief Details
Know and Access your Personal Information You may request, up to two times in a 12-month period, that we disclose to you the categories and specific pieces of personal information that we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which your personal information has been collected, the business or commercial purpose for collecting your personal information, the categories of personal information that we disclosed for a business purpose, any categories of personal information about you that we sold or shared, the categories of third-parties with whom we have shared your personal information, and the business or commercial purpose for selling your personal information, if applicable.
Request Deletion of your Personal Information You have the right to request that we delete certain personal information that we may have collected from you.
Opt-Out of the “Sale” or “Sharing” of your Personal Information AppLovin may “share” personal information about you for purposes of serving you with personalized ads or content, otherwise known as “interest-based advertising,” “targeted advertising,” or “cross-context behavioral advertising.”

You have the right to opt-out of any future “sales” or “sharing” of your personal information as defined by the Applicable Laws (and as explained below).
Non-Discrimination You have the right to exercise the rights conferred on you by the Applicable Laws without discrimination.
Data Portability You have the right to request that we transmit certain personal information that we may have collected from you to other entities, unless transmitting the information would not be technically feasible.

Opt-Out of Sharing for Cross-Contextual Behavioral Advertising You have the right to opt-out of the “sharing” of your personal information for “cross-contextual behavioral advertising,” often referred to as “interest-based advertising” or “targeted advertising.” 
Limit the Use or Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information In certain circumstances, you have the right to limit the use of any sensitive categories of personal information. As noted above, AppLovin does not collect or seek to elicit sensitive categories of personal information.
Opt-Out of the Use of Automated Decision Making In certain circumstances, you have the right to opt-out of the use of automated decision making in relation to your personal information.

How to Exercise Your Privacy Rights

To exercise your rights to know and access your personal information or to request deletion of your personal information, you have the following options (listed according to the types of interaction you may have with AppLovin):

For Users of Mobile Games and/or Other Applications, Platforms, or Services Containing the AppLovin SDK or Similar Technologies

  • To manage the personal information that AppLovin may have about you from the mobile games and/or other applications, platforms, or services that you use, you may download the AppLovin Privacy Management Application from the Apple or Google Play Stores:
App Store
Google Play

By navigating through the tabs in the AppLovin Privacy Management Application, you can erase the personal information that AppLovin may have collected about you or request a copy of that personal information.

To exercise your right to opt-out of interest-based advertising, you have the following options:

  • Opt-Out through AppLovin Ads.  AppLovin allows you to opt-out of all interest-based advertising served by AppLovin through the “i” or “Learn more about ad preferences” link available on the face of an ad served by AppLovin.  Once you click on the link, you will see a button to “Opt-Out of Interest-Based Advertising.”
  • Opt-Out through Device-Level Choices.  In addition, if you do not want to receive interest-based advertisements, you can limit the collection of certain information through your device’s settings.  Detailed instructions on how to change these device settings can be found in the “Manage Your Privacy Choices” section of our Privacy Policy and in the instructions available here.
  • Opt-Out through Industry Consumer-Choice Platforms.  Finally, you can make choices about data collection for certain companies by visiting an industry consumer-choice platform, such as the NAI or DAA.

Please know that opting out of interest-based advertising does not mean that you will not receive advertising.  You may still receive ads, but those ads may be less relevant to your interests.

*    *    *    *

Please note that requesting to exercise your rights through us will not bear on the personal information processed about you by our third-party partners and customers, including the Publishers that have the AppLovin SDK embedded in their mobile games and/or other applications, platforms, or services.  If you wish to exercise your rights with respect to these third parties, please submit a request with each party directly.

Children Under the Age of 16

As explained in our Privacy Policy, children under the age of 16 may not use the AppLovin Services and we do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 16.

Wij kunnen ook informatie ontvangen van onze partners (de fabrikant van uw apparaat of uw mobiele provider), zoals de IMEI en het telefoonnummer, die wij gebruiken voor doeleinden van foutopsporing. Wij gebruiken deze informatie om u de Diensten te leveren en om de producten en diensten die wij u leveren te verbeteren, onder meer om fraude te voorkomen en/of uw identiteit te verifiëren. We kunnen informatie die we verzamelen ook combineren met andere informatie die we via analytische technieken afleiden, en we gebruiken die gecombineerde informatie om de Diensten aan te bieden. Dit soort informatie kan transactiegegevens omvatten met betrekking tot de interactie van een consument met een applicatie, zoals informatie over de in een applicatie ondernomen acties, zoals aankopen of installaties van applicaties.

SDK’s (software development kits) voor software voor mobiele applicaties.  Wij kunnen onze SDK’s in de app en/of in de aanbevolen apps gebruiken voor verschillende doeleinden, onder andere om ons te voorzien van analyses met betrekking tot het gebruik van onze mobiele toepassingen, om te integreren met sociale media, om functies of functionaliteit toe te voegen aan onze app, of om op interesses gebaseerde reclame mogelijk te maken.  SDK’s kunnen derden in staat stellen rechtstreeks informatie te verzamelen via onze mobiele toepassingen.

Bij het exploiteren van ons bedrijf en het werken om u de Diensten voor direct downloaden te leveren, kunnen wij, tenzij anders aangegeven, uw persoonsgegevens voor direct downloaden op de volgende manieren bekendmaken of delen:

  • Met onze dienstverleners. We dragen uw persoonsgegevens voor direct downloaden over aan dienstverleners en andere partners die ons bedrijf ondersteunen, met bijvoorbeeld het leveren van technische infrastructuurdiensten, het analyseren hoe onze Diensten voor direct downloaden worden gebruikt en het leveren van klantenservice. Deze partners zijn onderworpen aan strikte verplichtingen op het gebied van geheimhouding op een manier die in overeenstemming is met dit Privacybeleid en de overeenkomsten die wij met hen aangaan.
  • Met derden om juridische of veiligheidsredenen. Wij kunnen uw persoonsgegevens voor direct downloaden delen als we redelijkerwijs van mening zijn dat het bekendmaken van dergelijke gegevens nodig is om te voldoen aan geldige juridische procedures, toepasselijke wetten en voorschriften, om mogelijke schendingen van onze Gebruiksvoorwaarden of ons Privacybeleid te onderzoeken, te verhelpen of af te dwingen en om fraude of beveiligingsproblemen op te sporen en op te lossen.
  • Met derden als onderdeel van een overname of liquidatie. Als wij betrokken zijn bij een fusie, verkoop van activa, financiering, bedrijfsafsplitsing, reorganisatie of overname van ons bedrijf of een deel daarvan aan een ander bedrijf of als wij een liquidatie- of faillissementsprocedure ondergaan, kunnen wij uw persoonsgegevens voor direct downloaden delen in verband met een dergelijke transactie of procedure voor en/of nadat de transactie is gesloten of de procedure is afgerond.

Hoe we gedeïdentificeerde en/of geaggregeerde informatie gebruiken en delen

Persoonsgegevens en andere informatie kunnen gedeïdentificeerd en/of samengevoegd worden op een manier die de persoonlijk identificeerbare componenten verwijdert. Gedeïdentificeerde en/of geaggregeerde informatie is geen en wordt niet behandeld als persoonsgegevens en kan door ons worden gebruikt en gedeeld met derden om inzicht te verschaffen in de ontwikkeling of verbetering van producten of diensten, marketing, beleggingsonderzoek of voor andere wettelijk toegestane doeleinden. Deze derden kunnen de gedeïdentificeerde en/of geaggregeerde informatie ook gebruiken en bekendmaken voor hun eigen zakelijke doeleinden, met inbegrip van inzicht in het winkelgedrag van consumenten, investeringsonderzoek, markttrends en andere inzichten en voor andere wettelijk toegestane doeleinden.

Uw rechten en keuzes op het gebied van privacy 

U kunt het recht hebben om toegang te vragen tot uw persoonsgegevens, deze te corrigeren, te wijzigen, te verwijderen, over te dragen aan een andere dienstverlener, deze te beperken of bezwaar te maken tegen bepaald gebruik van uw persoonsgegevens (bijvoorbeeld direct marketing). Wij zullen u niet meer in rekening brengen of een ander niveau van dienstverlening bieden als u een van deze rechten uitoefent. Bij wijzigingen kunnen wij echter een kopie van de ongewijzigde informatie in onze administratie bewaren. U kunt ook contact met ons opnemen over vragen of verzoeken met betrekking tot uw persoonlijke gegevens door een e-mail te sturen naar [email protected]. Om uw privacy te beschermen kunnen wij u, voordat wij u toegang geven of u uw gegevens laten bijwerken, vragen uw identiteit te verifiëren of aanvullende informatie te verstrekken. Wij kunnen een verzoek om een aantal redenen afwijzen, bijvoorbeeld omdat het verzoek de privacy van andere gebruikers in gevaar brengt, technische inspanningen vereist die niet in verhouding staan tot het verzoek, repetitief is, of onwettig is.

Met bijgewerkte versies van Android kunt u het verzamelen van informatie door apps van mobiele apparaten, waaronder advertentie-ID’s en locatiegegevens, beperken; ga naar de instellingen van uw apparaat om deze functies op uw apparaat in te stellen. U kunt ook keuzes maken over het verzamelen van gegevens en zich afmelden voor op interesses gebaseerde reclame door deelnemende bedrijven door naar een platform voor consumentenkeuze in de branche te gaan, zoals het Network Advertising Initiative (hier) of de Digital Advertising Alliance (hier).

Houd er rekening mee dat u nog steeds advertenties op uw apparaat kunt ontvangen na het beperken van de verwerking van informatie voor op interesses gebaseerde advertenties, maar dat deze advertenties minder relevant voor uw interesses kunnen zijn.

Specifieke bepalingen voor consumenten in de EU en het VK 

Internationale overdracht 

Wij kunnen bepaalde persoonsgegevens overdragen aan de VS en vertrouwen op de standaardcontractbepalingen van de EU en andere waarborgen om dergelijke overdracht mogelijk te maken.

Wettelijke grondslag voor verwerking

In bepaalde gevallen verwerken wij uw persoonsgegevens wanneer dit noodzakelijk is voor de uitvoering van een overeenkomst waarbij u partij bent, zoals om de Diensten aan u te leveren. Wij kunnen uw persoonsgegevens ook verwerken om uw vragen over onze producten en diensten te beantwoorden.

In andere gevallen verwerken we uw persoonsgegevens waar dit wettelijk verplicht is. We kunnen uw persoonsgegevens ook verwerken indien dit noodzakelijk is om uw belangen of de belangen van een derde partij te beschermen.

Daarnaast verwerken wij uw persoonsgegevens waar nodig ten behoeve van fraudepreventie, het verbeteren van ons netwerk en onze diensten en marketing van onze diensten aan zakelijke partners; dit waar deze belangen niet zwaarder wegen dan uw rechten met betrekking tot gegevensbescherming.

Als het verwerken van persoonsgegevens noodzakelijk is en er geen andere rechtsgrond bestaat voor deze verwerking, zullen wij er in het algemeen voor zorgen dat er toestemming van u is verkregen. U hebt te allen tijde het recht om uw toestemming voor de verwerking van persoonsgegevens in te trekken.

Neem voor vragen over de verwerking van gegevens contact op met onze functionaris voor gegevensbescherming. Ga naar het gedeelte ‘Contact’ hieronder voor contactgegevens.

Kinderen

De Diensten zijn niet bedoeld voor gebruik door kinderen (van 16 jaar of een hogere leeftijd zoals vereist door toepasselijke wetgeving). Wij verzamelen niet bewust persoonsgegevens van kinderen via de Diensten en staan hen niet bewust toe om onze Diensten te gebruiken. Als wij ontdekken dat wij onbedoeld persoonsgegevens van een kind hebben verzameld, zullen wij deze gegevens verwijderen. Als u denkt dat wij persoonsgegevens hebben verzameld van of over een kind, neem dan contact met ons op via [email protected].

Uw rechten

Als u een persoon in de EU of het VK bent, kunt u:

  • om toegang verzoeken tot de persoonsgegevens die we over u in bezit hebben;
  • ons verzoeken uw persoonsgegevens te corrigeren of te verwijderen;
  • ons verzoeken de verwerking van uw persoonsgegevens te beperken of te blokkeren;
  • onder bepaalde omstandigheden persoonsgegevens over uzelf ontvangen die wij opslaan en doorgeven aan anderen, zonder belemmering van onze kant, inclusief het verzoek om uw persoonlijke gegevens rechtstreeks aan een ander te verstrekken, d.w.z. een recht op gegevensoverdraagbaarheid; en
  • uw toestemming voor het verwerken van uw persoonsgegevens, indien u deze eerder aan ons hebt verstrekt, intrekken.

Als u de hierboven beschreven rechten wilt uitoefenen, verzoeken wij u ons een e-mail te sturen via [email protected]. Houd er rekening mee dat wij u deze rechten onder bepaalde omstandigheden niet kunnen verlenen, bijvoorbeeld als wij hiertoe wettelijk niet in staat zijn.

Daarnaast heeft u het recht om een klacht tegen ons in te dienen. Neem hiervoor contact op met de toezichthoudende instantie in het land waar u woont.

Bovendien ‘deelt’ AppLovin geen persoonlijke informatie over u met derden voor ‘cross-context gedragsadvertenties’.  AppLovin ‘deelt’ uw persoonlijke informatie alleen met aan AppLovin gelieerde ondernemingen, dienstverleners, door u gespecificeerde ontvangers of overheidsinstanties/wetshandhavers indien dit vereist is.

Als Gedekte Individuele Inwoner kunt u mogelijk de volgende rechten uitoefenen met betrekking tot de persoonsgegevens die wij over u verzameld hebben, met inachtneming van bepaalde beperkingen en vereisten, waaronder de verificatie van uw identiteit en ons recht om informatie te bewaren om te voldoen aan onze wettelijke verplichtingen, naast andere omstandigheden.

Recht op het gebied van privacy Details in het kort
Kennis van en toegang tot uw persoonsgegevens U kunt ons maximaal tweemaal per periode van 12 maanden verzoeken u de categorieën en specifieke stukken persoonsgegevens bekend te maken die wij over u hebben verzameld, de categorieën bronnen waar uw persoonsgegevens zijn verzameld, het zakelijke of commerciële doel voor het verzamelen van uw persoonsgegevens, de categorieën persoonsgegevens die wij voor zakelijke doeleinden bekend hebben gemaakt, alle categorieën persoonsgegevens over u die wij hebben verkocht of gedeeld, de categorieën derden met wie wij uw persoonsgegevens hebben gedeeld, en het zakelijke of commerciële doel voor het verkopen van uw persoonsgegevens, indien van toepassing.
Verzoeken om verwijdering van uw persoonsgegevens U hebt het recht om te verzoeken dat wij bepaalde persoonsgegevens verwijderen die wij van u hebben verzameld.
Afmelden voor ‘verkopen’ of ‘delen’ van uw persoonsgegevens Voor zover AppLovin persoonlijke informatie over u ‘deelt’ om u gepersonaliseerde advertenties of inhoud aan te bieden, ook bekend als ‘op interesses gebaseerde advertenties’, ‘gerichte advertenties’ of ‘cross-context gedragsadvertenties’, hebt u het recht om u af te melden voor elke toekomstige ‘verkoop’ of ‘delen’ van uw persoonlijke informatie zoals gedefinieerd door toepasselijke wetgeving (en zoals hieronder uitgelegd).
Non-discriminatie U hebt het recht om de rechten die de toepasselijke wetgeving u toekent zonder discriminatie uit te oefenen.
Portabiliteit van gegevens U hebt het recht om ons te verzoeken dat wij bepaalde persoonsgegevens die wij van u hebben verzameld, overdragen aan andere instanties, tenzij het overdragen van deze informatie technisch niet haalbaar is.
Onjuiste gegevens corrigeren U hebt het recht om ons te verzoeken fouten of onnauwkeurige informatie in de persoonsgegevens die wij over u verzameld hebben, te corrigeren.
Afmelden voor delen voor cross-context gedragsadvertenties Voor zover AppLovin persoonlijke informatie over u ‘deelt’ voor ‘cross-context gedragsadvertenties’, vaak ook ‘op interesses gebaseerde advertenties’ of ‘gerichte advertenties’ genoemd, hebt u het recht om zich af te melden voor dergelijk ‘delen’ .
Het gebruik of bekendmaken van gevoelige persoonsgegevens beperken Onder bepaalde omstandigheden hebt u het recht om het gebruik van gevoelige categorieën van persoonsgegevens te beperken. Zoals hierboven aangegeven, verzamelt AppLovin geen gevoelige categorieën van persoonsgegevens en probeert AppLovin deze ook niet te verzamelen.
Afmelden voor het gebruik van automatisch beslissingen nemen Onder bepaalde omstandigheden hebt u het recht om het gebruik van gevoelige categorieën van persoonsgegevens te beperken.

Het uitoefenen van uw rechten

Om uw recht op kennisname, recht op toegang, recht op correctie, recht op verwijdering, recht op afmelden voor verkoop of delen van informatie, of enig ander recht dat u volgens de toepasselijke wetgeving heeft, uit te oefenen, dient u een verzoek in door in de ‘Instellingen’ van uw apparaat naar ‘Mijn keuzes op het gebied van privacy’ te gaan of een e-mail te sturen naar [email protected] of door ons te schrijven op het fysieke adres in het gedeelte ‘Contact opnemen’ hieronder, met als onderwerpregel ‘Data Privacy Rights Request’ en met vermelding van welk(e) recht(en) u wilt uitoefenen (bijvoorbeeld uw recht op verwijdering). Wij zullen uw identiteit moeten verifiëren voordat wij uw verzoek kunnen verwerken. Om uw identiteit te verifiëren, zullen wij over het algemeen voldoende informatie die u ons verstrekt, moeten vergelijken met de informatie die wij over u in onze systemen bewaren. Onder bepaalde omstandigheden kunnen wij een verzoek om de hierboven beschreven rechten uit te oefenen afwijzen, met name wanneer wij uw identiteit niet kunnen verifiëren of uw gegevens niet in onze systemen kunnen vinden. Als wij niet in staat zijn om aan uw verzoek of een deel ervan te voldoen, zullen wij de redenen voor het niet voldoen aan het verzoek toelichten.

Onder bepaalde omstandigheden is het u toegestaan een gemachtigde in te schakelen om namens u verzoeken in te dienen wanneer (i) u voldoende bewijs levert dat de verzoeker een gemachtigde is met schriftelijke toestemming om namens u te handelen en (ii) u uw eigen identiteit voldoende bij ons verifieert.

Afhankelijk van de staat waarin u zich bevindt, kunt u, als u een verzoek hebt ingediend waaraan wij volgens u niet hebben voldaan, contact met ons opnemen om tegen onze beslissing in beroep te gaan door te reageren op ons antwoord op uw verzoek, of door contact met ons op te nemen op [email protected].

Wij streven ernaar om binnen 45 dagen na ontvangst van een verzoek van een consument te reageren op het betreffende verzoek. Als wij meer tijd nodig hebben, zullen wij u schriftelijk op de hoogte stellen van de reden en de duur van de verlenging.

Vos droits et choix en matière de protection de la vie privée 

Vous avez le droit de demander l’accès à vos informations personnelles, de les corriger, de les modifier, de les supprimer, de les transférer à un autre fournisseur de services, de les limiter ou de vous opposer à certaines utilisations (par exemple, le marketing direct). Nous ne vous facturerons pas davantage ou ne vous fournirons pas un niveau de service différent si vous exercez l’un de ces droits. Cependant, lorsque des modifications sont apportées, nous pouvons conserver une copie des informations non rectifiées dans nos dossiers. Vous pouvez également nous contacter pour toute question ou demande relative à vos informations personnelles en envoyant un courrier électronique à l’adresse suivante [email protected]. Pour protéger votre vie privée, nous pouvons vous demander de vérifier votre identité ou de fournir des informations supplémentaires avant de vous donner accès à vos informations ou de vous laisser les mettre à jour. Nous nous réservons le droit de refuser une demande pour un certain nombre de raisons, par exemple si cette demande met en danger la vie privée d’autres utilisateurs, si elle exige des efforts techniques disproportionnés par rapport à la demande, si elle est répétitive ou si elle est illégale.

Les versions mises à jour d’Android vous permettent de limiter la collecte d’informations par les applications à partir des appareils mobiles, y compris l’identifiant publicitaire et les données de localisation. Veuillez consulter les paramètres de votre appareil pour ces fonctions sur votre appareil. Vous pouvez également choisir de ne pas collecter de données et de refuser la publicité basée sur les centres d’intérêt pour certaines entreprises participantes en vous rendant sur une plateforme de choix des consommateurs de l’industrie, telle que Network Advertising Initiative (ici) ou Digital Advertising Alliance (ici).

Veuillez noter que vous pouvez continuer à recevoir des publicités sur votre appareil après avoir limité le traitement des informations dans le cadre de la publicité basée sur les centres d’intérêt, mais ces publicités seront moins susceptibles de correspondre à vos centres d’intérêt.

Dispositions spécifiques pour les consommateurs de l’Union européenne ou du Royaume-Uni 

Transferts internationaux 

Nous sommes susceptibles de transférer certaines données personnelles vers les États-Unis d’Amérique et nous nous fondons sur les clauses contractuelles types de l’UE et sur d’autres garanties pour permettre ces transferts.
