Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 07/12/2023
This Website is the property of Wild West Labs LLC, doing business as Wordspace.ai (“Wordspace,” “We” or “Us”). We understand the importance of the information you entrust to us and have published this Privacy Policy to describe our practices concerning the information we collect from you when you use the Wordspace website (the “Site”) and any mobile or desktop application we may develop.
This policy is incorporated into our Terms of Service as if fully set forth therein, and describes: (i) the types of information we collect when you use our Site (ii) how we use and protect that information; and (iii) third parties we may share your information with; (iv) how long we retain it; and (v) your rights and options as they pertain to the information we collect. By using our Site, you consent to our collection and use of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.
The General Data Protection Regulation
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) replaces the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and was designed to harmonize data privacy laws across Europe, to protect and empower all EU citizens’ data privacy and to reshape the way organizations across the region approach data privacy. The GDPR aims primarily to give control back to citizens and residents over their personal data and to simplify the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU.
1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
We collect two basic types of information:
(a) Personally identifiable information (PII): PII is information that identifies you as an individual. As of the effective date of this Privacy Policy, when you request to receive newsletter, emails, or other communications, complete surveys, or participate in sweepstakes, contests or other promotions, register on this website or leave comments, we ask you to provide us with your first name, last name, and email address. If you contact us with questions or requests, you may also be asked to provide additional PII if it is required for us to respond. If you are selected as the winner of a sweepstakes, contest, or any other promotion that we sponsor or promote, we may request additional information in order to deliver your prize, including your shipping address, phone number, and any other information we may need to fulfill your prize.
Also, if you choose to login to our site through a social networking site, you are granting us permission to access and use certain information about you as permitted by the social network. For example, if you use Facebook to login, it may provide us with access to whatever information you choose to include in your public profile, such as friends’ names, pictures, genders, user Ids, connections, and any other shared content.
NOTE: If you post any comments, information, or other content on our Site that include PII, you are making that information available to all of our visitors, and this Privacy Policy will not apply in that instance. This includes, but is not limited to, information posted to any public area of the Site, including but not limited to any forum, comments, testimonial, feedback, and review sections of the Site. Please think carefully before disclosing PII or other information on the Site. All such information is not confidential and Wordspace shall be free to reproduce, disclose, use, and distribute such information to others without limitation or attribution and it may be used by others in ways Wordspace cannot prevent.
(b) General Information: General Information consists of information that is anonymous in nature and does not identify you as an individual. We use cookies to collect General Information. A “cookie” is a type of software used to gather and store visitor information. The General Information we collect includes (but is not limited to) your computer IP address (when not tied to your particular account), unique mobile device identifier, browser type, ISP or carrier name, and the URL of the last webpage you visited before visiting our website. We also use analytical tracking and usage analysis software to collect General Information about online behaviors, which are further discussed in Section 7 below.
We, along with third-party vendors such as Google use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) or other third-party identifiers together to compile data regarding user interactions with ad impressions and other ad service functions as they relate to our website.
Opting out: Users can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ad Settings page. Alternatively, you can opt out by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative Opt Out page or by using the Google Analytics Opt Out Browser add on.
2. HOW DO WE USE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT?
(a) How We Use PII: We use your PII to interact with you on a personal level. For example, we use your name and email address to respond to your questions or comply with your requests (i.e., send you our newsletter or enter you into a sweepstakes, contest, or other promotion), and to send you important information (such as changes to this policy or our Terms of Service) and to send promotional emails, some of which may contain product offers from third parties. You may opt-out of receiving non-account related emails by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link located at the bottom of the email.
(b) How We Use General Information: We use the General Information we collect to obtain insights on how people use our Site. We use this information for various internal business purposes, and to ensure that our Site continues to appeal to our users.
