KikFriender Privacy Policy

Effective as of January 17, 2015

"KikFriender" or "we" operates KikFriender.com (the "Site"), which is a community that allows Users to share their Kik username publicly in the objective to find new friends with whom to interact with on the Kik mobile application. KikFriender allows users to upload images, and videos and associate them with a unique URL to create online access to the images and videos for themselves and others on the Site. This Privacy Policy describes KikFriender's use and sharing of personally identifiable information ("PII"-- your full name or email address,) that Members voluntarily provide to KikFriender when they register or update the Settings part of their Profile (also known as "Registration PII"). The Term "User" refers to a Visitor or a Member. This Privacy Policy applies to the services offered by KikFriender, which may include the Site, image and video sharing, other features (for example, geographical search of other Users), and any other features, content, or mobile services in connection with KikFriender's business (collectively, the "KikFriender Services").

The Site is a general audience site and KikFriender does not knowingly collect PII from children under 12 years of age.

From time to time KikFriender may modify this Privacy Policy to reflect industry initiatives or changes in the law, our PII collection and use practices, the features of the KikFriender Services, or technology, and such modifications shall be effective upon posting by KikFriender on the Site. Your continued use of the KikFriender Services after KikFriender posts a revised Privacy Policy signifies your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. It is therefore important that you review this Privacy Policy regularly to ensure you are updated as to any changes.

COLLECTION OF PII BY KikFriender

General. When KikFriender collects PII from you it is because you are voluntarily submitting PII to us in order to register as a Member of KikFriender. KikFriender may also collect PII from you if you choose to participate in KikFriender Services activities like sweepstakes, contests, games and surveys, or because you want us to furnish you with products, services, newsletters, or information, or in connection with content or suggestions you submit to KikFriender for review. Other PII including first and last name, location, and mobile telephone numbers may also be collected. We may also obtain PII from reputable third parties.

In addition, KikFriender collects other non-PII including IP address, aggregate user data, and browser type. This data is used to manage and improve the KikFriender Services, track usage, and for security purposes.

KikFriender Members may also choose to provide or store non-PII information in their profiles, including but not limited to groups with whom they are affiliated, videos and/or pictures, (collectively "Profile Information"). The Profile Information in a Member's profile is provided at his or her sole discretion.

KikFriender Members can change their Registration PII and Profile Information at any time by controlling their account settings, available within the "Settings" portion of their KikFriender profile.

Cookies. Cookies are small bits of information that KikFriender places on your computer. KikFriender uses cookies to identify your Internet browser, store Users' preferences, and to determine whether you have installed the enabling software needed to access certain material on the KikFriender Services. Data in cookies may be read to authenticate user sessions or provide services.

Third-party advertisements displayed on KikFriender Services may also contain cookies set by Internet advertising companies or advertisers. KikFriender does not control these cookies and Users of the KikFriender Services should check the privacy policy of the Internet advertising company or advertiser to see whether and how it uses cookies. See the "Notice" section below for more information on third-party advertising.

You can program your computer to warn you each time a cookie is being sent, block third party cookies or block all cookies. However, by blocking all cookies you may not have access to certain features on the KikFriender Services.

Except as described in this Privacy Policy, KikFriender will not share your PII with third parties unless you have given KikFriender permission to do so (See "Use" below).

KikFriender Services may be linked to Internet sites operated by other companies. KikFriender Services may also carry advertisements from other companies. KikFriender is not responsible for the privacy practices of websites operated by third parties that are linked to or integrated with the KikFriender Services or for the privacy practices of third-party Internet advertising companies. Once you leave KikFriender Services via such a link, or by clicking on an advertisement, you should check the applicable privacy policy of the third party or advertiser site to determine how they will handle any PII they collect from you.

KikFriender may use cookies and similar tools to customize the content and advertising you receive based on the Profile Information you have provided. Profile Information you provide in structured profile fields or questions (multiple choice questions like "Language") and other non-PII about you may also be used to customize the online ads you encounter to those we believe are aligned with your interests. The information used for this feature does not provide your PII or identify you as an individual to third parties.

Some of the advertisements that appear on the Site are delivered to you by third party Internet advertising companies. These companies utilize certain technologies to deliver advertisements and marketing messages and to collect non-PII about your visit to or use of KikFriender Services, including information about the ads they display, via a cookie placed on your computer that reads your IP address.

Third party applications (such as widgets) created by third party developers may also be available on or in connection with the KikFriender Services. Third party applications are small bits of software, often with interactivity, that users may be able to install into profiles, use to access the KikFriender Services, or share with other Users. However, KikFriender does not control the third party developers, and cannot dictate their actions. When a Member engages with a third party application, that Member is interacting with the third party developer, not with KikFriender. KikFriender encourages Members not to provide PII to the third party's application unless the Member knows the party with whom it is interacting.

Except as described in this Privacy Policy, KikFriender will get your permission before we use the PII you provide to us in a way that is inconsistent with the purpose for which it was submitted or share your PII with third parties that are not affiliated with KikFriender.

USE: KikFriender'S USE OF PII

KikFriender will only use the PII you provide in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy. If KikFriender obtains PII from a third party, such as a business partner, our use of that information is also governed by this Privacy Policy.

In order to locate other KikFriender Members that you may already know in the physical world, KikFriender allows Users to search for Members using Members location details. If you have consented to receive promotional materials from KikFriender, KikFriender may periodically use your email address to send you such notifications related to the KikFriender Services.

KikFriender employees, agents and contractors must have a business reason to obtain access to your PII. KikFriender may share your PII with outside contractors or agents who help us manage our information activities (i.e., message boards, sweepstakes administration, order fulfilment, statistical analyses, data processing), or with outside contractors, agents or sponsors who help us with the administration, judging and prize fulfilment aspects of contests, promotions and sweepstakes.

These outside contractors, agents or sponsors may temporarily store some information on their servers, but they may only use your PII to provide KikFriender with a specific service and not for any other purpose without your consent. KikFriender may also provide your PII to a third party in those instances where you have chosen to receive certain information and have been notified that the fulfilment of such a request requires the sharing of your PII. KikFriender also may share your PII with Affiliated Companies if it has a business reason to do so.

As described in "Notice" above, KikFriender may customize the advertising and marketing messages you receive on the Site, or may work with outside companies to do so. Your non-PII may be shared with these companies so this customization can be accomplished. KikFriender prohibits these companies from sharing your information with any third party or from using it for any other purpose. Anonymous click stream, number of page views calculated by pixel tags, and aggregated demographic information may also be shared with KikFriender's advertisers and business partners.

There may be instances when KikFriender may access or disclose PII or non-PII without providing you with a choice in order to: (i) protect or defend the legal rights or property of KikFriender, our Affiliated Companies or their employees, agents and contractors (including enforcement of our agreements); (ii) protect the safety and security of Users of the KikFriender Services or members of the public, including acting in urgent circumstances; (iii) protect against fraud or for risk management purposes; or (iv) comply with the law or legal process. In addition, if KikFriender sells all or part of its business or makes a sale or transfer of all or a material part of its assets or is otherwise involved in a merger or transfer of all or a material part of its business, KikFriender may transfer your PII to the party or parties involved in the transaction as part of that transaction.

SECURITY: KikFriender PROTECTS THE SECURITY OF PII

KikFriender uses commercially reasonable administrative, technical, personnel and physical measures to safeguard PII and credit card information in its possession against loss, theft and unauthorized use, disclosure or modification. In addition, KikFriender uses reasonable methods to make sure that PII is accurate, up-to-date and appropriately complete.
