This privacy policy (“Policy”) describes the privacy practices for our websites including www.pathmatics.com and explorer.pathmatics.com.

We are committed to protecting your privacy. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about your information, this Policy, your privacy, or any of our privacy practices, please contact our Data Protection Officer by email at data-protection@sensortower.com.

Information We Collect

Like most website operators, Pathmatics collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Pathmatics' purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Pathmatics' visitors use its website. From time to time, Pathmatics may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Pathmatics also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Pathmatics only discloses IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Pathmatics' websites choose to interact with Pathmatics in ways that require Pathmatics to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Pathmatics gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. Those who are subscribers to Pathmatics' services for example must provide their full names, e-mail addresses, login names, and passwords. Pathmatics does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

HOW LONG WE KEEP INFORMATION

We generally discard information about you when it’s no longer needed for the purposes for which we collect and use it — described in the section above on How Is Your Information Used — and we’re not legally required to keep it.

LEGAL BASIS FOR COLLECTING AND USING INFORMATION

For those users residing in the European Union, we rely on several legal bases to process your data, which include: (i) when you have given consent, which you may withdraw at any time and opt-out; (ii) when data processing is necessary to perform or fulfill services, (iii) to comply with a legal obligation, and (iv) our legitimate business interests, such as improving and personalizing the Services, marketing new features or products that may be of interest to you, and promoting safety and security of the services and our customers.

PROTECTION OF CERTAIN PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION

Pathmatics discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Pathmatics' behalf or to provide services available at Pathmatics' websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Pathmatics' websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Pathmatics will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Pathmatics discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Pathmatics believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Pathmatics, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Pathmatics website and have supplied your email address, Pathmatics may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with Pathmatics and our products. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Pathmatics takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
