We may ask you to submit information that falls into “Special Categories of Personal Data” in connection with allergies, height and weight, pulse rate, food preferences and eating habits. Also, in the event You ask us to analyze items while you are at a location such as a house of worship, a hospital, a campaign office or a picket line, You may be providing such information incidentally; You consent to our use, storage, retention and processing of data included in these Special Categories of Personal Data in the same way that We use, store, retain and process Your Personal Data, and agree that the term Personal Data as used herein includes Special Categories of Personal Data and Interactive Data, as defined below.

To improve our Services and avoid errors, we may obtain certain analytical information including records of the user sign in process, as well as login and logoff times, object loss metrics, test processes, button and action data and related information; such data may be shared with Instabug and/or Amplitude so we can provide You with the Services you want to receive, error-free.
Your Information, including Personal Data, is collected, stored, processed, used and archived pursuant to this Privacy Policy.
In order to use Shifton Inc Services, You may from time to time provide personally identifying and other forms of information, including, but not limited to, Your name, age, gender, street address, email address, phone number, and other contact information. In addition, We and our third-party service providers may collect Your billing, shipping, and other information, and We may collect other supplemental information from third parties. You can always choose not to provide any information, but then You might not be able to take advantage of many of Shifton Inc products and Services. Like most standard website servers, We use log files to collect Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (“ISP”), referring/exit pages, platform type, and date/time stamp. We may use the information to analyze site usage, administer the site, understand usage and navigation trends in the aggregate, and determine the relevance of content. IP addresses are also linked to personally identifiable information, to improve user’s experience when using the Website. Although, We have no obligation to do so, We may also retain any email, letter, or other correspondence between You and Shifton Inc and any representative or agent thereof, to ensure quality control.
Information supplied by You to Shifton Inc may be used to serve You and to operate and maintain Our Services, and in performance of any contract You enter into with us including any order placed via the Sites. For example, We may use the information to respond to Your requests, to customize future use of the Website for You, to improve our Website, to make recommendations to You, to remind You of past orders, and to communicate with You. We may use Your email address or information without Your consent, for a range of purposes including managing, tracking, completing and confirming Your analysis, processing Your payment, marketing, quality of service and administrative purposes, and we reserve the right to share Your personally identifying information with any entity that You order products from via Shifton Inc, as well as our staff/employees/contractors/team and a currency/credit card processing company whose role is to bill users for purchases made via Shifton Inc.

We reserve the right to partner with any third party to provide specific Services and process, store and organize Personal Data on our behalf.
We may use Your Personal Data in connection with information from You that is not Personal Data which we have collected in a manner such that the end-product does not personally identify You or any other user of the Service. We may make information that would otherwise be deemed Personal Data (e.g. the number of Users who have ordered from a particular partner, or who live in a particular zip code) non-personally identifiable by either combining it with information about other users (aggregating Your Personal Data with information about other users), or by removing characteristics (such as Your name or email address) that make the information personally identifiable. This process is known as de-personalizing or anonymizing Your information.
Through this Privacy Policy, You grant us a royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable and fully transferable right and license to use Your Personal Data in connection with the creation and development of analytical and statistical analysis tools relating to the use of the customer data we collect in providing the Service (the “Analytical Data”). We may share Your Personal Data with service providers that we engage for the purpose of processing information on our and Your behalf. For example, we may partner with other companies to process payments for the Service. Additionally, we may partner with other companies to process, analyze, and/or store data, including, but not limited to, Analytical Data. While providing services for us, these companies may access Your Personal Data. To the extent applicable, we require these entities to comply with this Privacy Policy and appropriate confidentiality and security measures. You expressly authorize and consent that we can make any commercial use of the Analytical Data, including without limitation, sharing the Analytical Data with third parties.

You expressly consent to the storage of Your Personal Data in the United States, Canada and other countries as Your Personal Data and other information may be stored and processed in any country where we have operations or where we engage service providers. We may transfer Personal Data that we maintain about You to recipients who are located, temporarily or permanently, in countries other than the country in which the Personal Data was originally collected. Those countries may have data protection rules that are different from those of Your country. However, we will take measures to ensure that any such transfers comply with applicable US data protection laws and that Your Personal Data remains protected to the standards described in this Privacy Policy. Your personal information may therefore be subject to privacy laws that are different from those in your country of residence. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies or security authorities in those other countries may be entitled to access Your Personal Data. We will share personal information if we have a good faith belief that (i) access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, such as a court order or subpoena, or a request by law enforcement or governmental authorities, (ii) such action is appropriate to enforce our Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, including any investigation of potential violations thereof, (iii) such action is necessary to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues associated with the Service, or (iv) such action is appropriate to protect the rights, property or safety of Shifton Inc, its employees/contractors/officers/affiliates, users of the Service or others.

Cookies and Other Technologies
Parts of the Service may use “cookies” and other technologies such as pixel tags and web beacons. These technologies help us better understand user behavior, tell us which parts of our website people have visited, and facilitate and measure the effectiveness of advertisements and web searches. We treat information collected by cookies and other technologies as non-personal information. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by local law, we also treat these identifiers as personal information.
“Cookies” are small bits of electronic information that a website sends to a visitor’s browser and are stored on the visitor’s hard drive. Like many websites, we employ cookies and other technologies in certain areas of the Service to allow us to provide information to make Your online experience more convenient. For example, when You return to the Service after logging in, cookies provide information to the Service so that the Service will remember who You are on subsequent visits, speeding up or enhancing Your experience of the Service by, for instance, tailoring content to You. Shifton Inc and our partners also use cookies and other technologies to remember personal information when You use our Service.
Some of our content is stored by and through Cloud servers, and we limit access to our control panel. We use Commercially Available Software to understand how our Users use the Shifton Inc site and Services, as well as various Analytics for understanding how our Users find and use the Services, Commercially Available Software for programming and Service maintenance, Apple Store and Google Play Store to enable downloads of our app, and other sub-processors whose names are available upon request at [email protected].

In some of our email messages, we use a “click-through URL” linked to content on the Service. When customers click one of these URLs, they pass through a separate web server before arriving at the destination page on our website. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in particular topics and measure the effectiveness of our customer communications. If You prefer not to be tracked in this way, You should not click text or graphic links in the email messages.
A pixel tag or web beacon is an often-transparent graphic image, usually no larger than 1 pixel by 1 pixel, that is placed on a website or in an email that is used to monitor the behavior of the user visiting the website or sending the email. We may use web beacons and/or pixel tags for many purposes, including site usage analytics, advertising, user management, auditing and reporting, and content and advertising personalization.
If for any reason You terminate Your user account with us, we will destroy active records containing Your Personal Data as soon as reasonably possible. “Reasonably” here means no more than thirty business days from the termination of the account; however, we may have to retain some information for a longer period as legal records or for auditing purposes, as we need to retain data where we have a valid justification to hold on to it, such as to resolve disputes or comply with our legal obligations, or to so we know not to use it again pursuant to a User’s request.
If You are a resident or citizen of a country where the GDPR applies, and ask us to delete Your account, we will remove Your Personal Data from our Service, and then from our records in accordance with our data deletion cycle, except that we may retain Personal Data where we have a valid justification to hold on to it, such as to resolve disputes or comply with our legal obligations, or to so we know not to use it again pursuant to a User’s request.
