We collect your personal information in order to provide and continually improve our products and services.
Here are the types of personal information we collect:
Information You Give Us:We receive and store any information you provide in relation to Papayape Services. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our Papayape Services.
Automatic Information:We automatically collect and store certain types of information about your use of Papayape Services, including information about your interaction with content and services available through Papayape Services. Like many websites, we use cookies and other unique identifiers, and we obtain certain types of information when your web browser or device accesses Papayape’s Services and other content served by or on behalf of Papayape on other websites
Third-Party Sources & Publicly Available SourcesWe also work closely with third parties (such as business partners, sub-contractors in technical, payment and delivery services, advertising networks, analytics providers, search information providers, address update providers, data append providers, co-promotion partners and credit reference agencies), and may lawfully receive demographic and other personal information about you from those third parties, which we may combine with the information you have provided to us. For example, we may lawfully collect information about you from content on social media platforms (e.g., when you choose to log in to our Site through a third-party social media platform (e.g., Facebook), subject to your actions and settings on those platforms). We do this to better tailor our products, services, Sites and communications, and to ensure we are providing our customers and visitors with the best browsing experiences. We process all data we obtain from such other sources in accordance with this Privacy Notice
Note that content and information that you submit on or through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr and other third-party platforms may appear on our Sites through feeds or interfaces that we have with those platforms. We are not responsible for the information, content and/or privacy practices of any such third-party platforms or content pulled through them.
Site Usage Information & Other Information Collected AutomaticallyAs part of the standard operation of the Sites, certain information is collected automatically about your visits to the Sites or your device accessing a Site. Our servers may automatically gather some of this “Site usage information” (such as your IP address, and information about your browsers, your device, your location, and your shopping, browsing and other usage activities). Additionally, if we have your consent, then we (and our service providers) may use cookies and other similar technologies to collect and track such information (see our Cookies/Ad Choices Policy for more details).
WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATIONInformation about our customers is an important part of our business and we are not in the business of selling our customers’ personal information to others. We share customers’ personal information only as described below and with Papayape.com and subsidiaries controls that either are subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice.
Transactions involving Third Parties:We make available to you services, products, applications, or skills provided by third parties for use on or through Papayape Services. We also offer services or sell product lines jointly with third-party businesses registered on Papayape.in, such as merchants providing bill-payment assistance. You can tell when a third party is involved in your transactions, and we share customers’ personal information related to those transactions with that third party.
Third-Party Service Providers:We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include sending email, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links, processing payments, scoring, assessing and managing credit risk, and providing customer service. These third-party service providers have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes. Further, they must process the personal information in accordance with applicable law.
Business Transfers:As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy other businesses or services. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise).
Protection of Papayape and Others:We release accounts and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Papayape, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

PHISHING, SPOOFING & OTHER SCHEMES
It has become increasingly common for hackers, cyber-criminals and other unauthorized individuals to send emails and other communications to consumers purporting to represent a legitimate company, such as a bank or an online retailer, and requesting through those communications that the consumer provide personal, often sensitive, information. Sometimes, the domain name of the sender’s email address, or the domain name of the website requesting such information, may appear to be the domain name of a legitimate, trusted company. If you receive a request to provide information (including your online account password, or any payment information) via email or to a website or individual that does not seem to be affiliated with the Sites or Papayape, or that otherwise seems suspicious to you, please do not respond or disclose your information. Papayape will never send you an email requesting that you verify any credit card information, financial information or other personal information. Please immediately report any such communication.
CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICEWe may change this Privacy Notice from time to time and the amended notice will be posted to the Sites. Under certain circumstances (for example, in connection with certain material adverse changes to this Privacy Notice), we may also elect to notify you through additional means, such as posting a notice on the home page(s) of the Sites or contacting you via email.
Complaints and Grievance RedressalIf you contact us to provide feedback, register a complaint, or ask a question, we will record any Personal Information and other content that you provide in your communication so that we can effectively respond to your communication.
