NanoFlick Privacy Policy

Overview

There are many different ways you can use our services – to browse, consume and rate content, or to create new content. When you share information with us, for example by creating a NanoFlick Account, we can make those services even better – to show you more relevant results and ads, to help you connect with people or to make sharing with others quicker and easier. As you use our services, we want you to be clear how we’re using information and the ways in which you can protect your privacy.

Our Privacy Policy explains:

We’ve tried to keep it as simple as possible, but if you’re not familiar with terms like cookies, IP addresses, pixel tags and browsers, then learn about these key terms first. Your privacy matters to NanoFlick so whether you are new to NanoFlick or a long-time user, please do take the time to get to know our practices.

How To Delete Your Data

To delete your data from NanoFlick servers, open the app and select Settings > Personal Privacy > Delete Account. If you have any difficulty, please contact us at support@nanoflick.com. Note that data deletion on NanoFlick does not affect any videos shared on other platforms such as YouTube. To delete videos you have already shared, you will need to do so on those platforms.

Information We Collect

We collect information to provide better services to all of our users – from figuring out basic stuff like which language you speak, to more complex things like which story templates, tips or ads you’ll find most useful, the people who matter most to you online, or which NanoFlick videos you might like.

We collect information in the following ways:

  • Information you give us. For example, most of our services require you to sign up for a NanoFlick Account. We do this to facilitate the creation, editing and sharing of your content. When you create an account, we’ll ask for personal information, like your name and email to store with your account. If you want to take full advantage of the sharing features we offer, we might also suggest creating a publicly visible NanoFlick Profile, which may include your name and photo. We may also ask you to link NanoFlick to your accounts with other services to simplify sharing. You are in full control of this data and may edit, hide or delete it at any time.
  • Information we get from your use of our services. We collect information about the services that you use and how you use them, like when you watch a video on NanoFlick, create or share content, or activate certain features. This information includes:
    • Device information
      We may collect device-specific information (such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers). NanoFlick may associate your device identifiers with your NanoFlick Account.
    • Log information
      When you use our services or view content provided by NanoFlick, we may automatically collect and store certain information in server logs. This includes:
      • details of how you used our service, such as your search queries, story template choices or videos viewed.
      • Internet protocol address.
      • device event information such as crashes, system activity, hardware settings, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and referral URL.
      • cookies that may uniquely identify your browser or your NanoFlick Account.
    • Location information
      When you use NanoFlick services, we may collect and process information about your actual location. We may use various technologies to determine location, including IP address, GPS, and other sensors that may, for example, provide NanoFlick with information on nearby devices, Wi-Fi access points and cell towers. Uses may include suggesting story templates based on your location, and including location metadata in your videos so they may be grouped by location.
    • Unique application numbers
      Certain services include a unique application number. This number and information about your installation (for example, the operating system type and application version number) may be sent to NanoFlick when you install or uninstall that service or when that service periodically contacts our servers, such as for automatic updates.
    • Local storage
      We may collect and store information (including personal information) locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage (including HTML 5) and application data caches. Additionally, your video files are stored on your device until you choose to share them.
    • Cookies and similar technologies
      We and our partners use various technologies to collect and store information when you visit a NanoFlick service, and this may include using cookies or similar technologies to identify your browser or device. We also use these technologies to collect and store information when you interact with services we offer to our partners, such as advertising services or NanoFlick features that may appear on other sites. Our products may help businesses and content owners analyze the traffic to their content and apps. When used in conjunction with advertising services, such as those using cookies, NanoFlick analytics information may be linked, by a NanoFlick partner or by NanoFlick, with information about visits to multiple apps and sites.

Information we collect when you are signed in to NanoFlick, in addition to information we obtain about you from partners, may be associated with your NanoFlick Account. When information is associated with your NanoFlick Account, we treat it as personal information. For more information about how you can access, manage or delete information that is associated with your NanoFlick Account, visit the Transparency and choice section of this policy.

How We Use Information We Collect

We use the information we collect from all of our services to provide, maintain, protect and improve them, to develop new ones, and to protect NanoFlick and our users. We also use this information to offer you tailored content – like giving you more relevant story templates, tips, videos and ads.

We may use the name you provide for your NanoFlick Profile across all of the services we offer that require a NanoFlick Account. In addition, we may replace past names associated with your NanoFlick Account so that you are represented consistently across all our services. If other users already have your email, or other information that identifies you, we may show them your publicly visible NanoFlick Profile information, such as your name and photo.

If you have a NanoFlick Account, we may display your Profile name, Profile photo, and actions you take on NanoFlick or on third party applications connected to your NanoFlick Account (such as reviews you write and comments you post) in our services, including displaying in ads and other commercial contexts. We will respect the choices you make to limit sharing or visibility settings in your NanoFlick Account.

When you contact NanoFlick, we keep a record of your communication to help solve any issues you might be facing. We may use your email address to inform you about our services, such as letting you know about upcoming changes or improvements.

We use information collected from cookies and other technologies, like pixel tags, to improve your user experience and the overall quality of our services. For example, by saving your language preferences, we’ll be able to have our services appear in the language you prefer. When showing you tailored ads, we will not associate an identifier from cookies or similar technologies with sensitive categories, such as those based on race, religion, sexual orientation or health.

Our automated systems may analyze your content to provide you personally relevant product features, such as customized search results, story templates, videos, tips and tailored advertising.

We may combine personal information from one service with information, including personal information, from other NanoFlick services – for example to make it easier to share things with people you know. Depending on your account settings, your activity on other sites and apps may be associated with your personal information in order to improve NanoFlick’s services and the ads delivered by NanoFlick.

We will ask for your consent before using information for a purpose other than those that are set out in this Privacy Policy.

NanoFlick may process personal information on servers in many countries around the world. We may process your personal information on a server located outside the country where you live.

Transparency and Choice

People have different privacy concerns. Our goal is to be clear about what information we collect, so that you can make meaningful choices about how it is used. For example, you can:

  • Review and control certain types of information tied to your NanoFlick Account.
  • Adjust how the Profile associated with your NanoFlick Account appears to others.
  • Control who you share information with through your NanoFlick Account.

To do so, please review the Settings section of the NanoFlick app.

You may also set your browser to block all cookies, including cookies associated with our services, or to indicate when a cookie is being set by us. However, it’s important to remember that many of our services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled. For example, we may not remember your language preferences.

Information You Share

Many of our services let you share information with others. Remember that when you share information publicly, it may be indexable by search engines, including Google and YouTube. Videos that are shared may be posted to your YouTube account for hosting. Our services provide you with different options on sharing and removing your content. You may need to additionally remove content on YouTube and other services on which you share the content. Further, our YouTube sharing functionality employs YouTube API Services, which are governed by the Google Privacy Policy available at www.google.com/policies/privacy. You may revoke API access for Google and YouTube by visiting myaccount.google.com/connections.

Accessing and updating your personal information

Whenever you use our services, we aim to provide you with access to your personal information. If that information is wrong, we strive to give you ways to update it quickly or to delete it – unless we have to keep that information for legitimate business or legal purposes. When updating your personal information, we may ask you to verify your identity before we can act on your request.

We may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup systems).

Where we can provide information access and correction, we will do so for free, except where it would require a disproportionate effort. We aim to maintain our services in a manner that protects information from accidental or malicious destruction. Because of this, after you delete information from our services, we may not immediately delete residual copies from our active servers and may not remove information from our backup systems.

Information We Share

We do not share personal information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of NanoFlick unless one of the following circumstances applies:

  • With your consent
    We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of NanoFlick when we have your consent to do so. We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information.
  • For external processing
    We provide personal information to our affiliates or other trusted businesses or persons to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
  • For legal reasons
    We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of NanoFlick if we have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:
    • meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.
    • enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations.
    • detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
    • protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of NanoFlick, our users or the public as required or permitted by law.

We may share non-personally identifiable information publicly and with our partners – like publishers, advertisers or connected sites. For example, we may share information publicly to show trends about the general use of our services.

If NanoFlick is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, we will continue to ensure the confidentiality of any personal information and give affected users notice before personal information is transferred or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

Information security

Our Privacy Policy applies to all of the services offered by NanoFlick LLC and its affiliates, including the NanoFlick app, website, and services offered on other sites, but excludes services that have separate privacy policies that do not incorporate this Privacy Policy.

Our Privacy Policy does not apply to services offered by other companies or individuals, including products or sites that may host shared content, or other sites linked from our services. Our Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of other companies and organizations who advertise our services, and who may use cookies, pixel tags and other technologies to serve and offer relevant ads.

Compliance and cooperation with regulatory authorities

We regularly review our compliance with our Privacy Policy. When we receive formal written complaints, we will contact the person who made the complaint to follow up. We work with the appropriate regulatory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding the transfer of personal data that we cannot resolve with our users directly.

Changes

Our Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We will post any privacy policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice (including, for certain services, email notification of privacy policy changes).
