PRIVACY POLICY
This “Privacy Policy” describes how Picart (“Picart”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) protects your privacy when you use Picart, which includes the website located at picart and all mobile phone and web applications developed by Cardinal Blue Software, Inc. (each, a “Picart Service” and collectively, the “Picart Services”), with the exception of the “Picart EDU” application, which has a separate privacy policy.
PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN AND ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH BELOW, YOU MAY NOT USE THE PICCOLLAGE SERVICE.
This Privacy Policy applies to the information (including personal information) collected through Picart Services. For the purpose of this Privacy Policy, "personal information" means information that identifies you personally, either alone or in combination with other information available to us. Personal information does not include a technical, device, or usage information that cannot be used to identify you personally even if we combine it with other data about you, nor does it include "aggregate" information, which is data we collect about the use of the Picart Services or about a group or category of services or users, from which individual identities or other personal information have been removed. This Privacy Policy in no way restricts or limits our collection and use of aggregate and non-personal information, and we may share such data about our users with third parties for various purposes. This Privacy Policy is part of and incorporated into Picart's Terms of Service (“Terms of Service”).

We collect information from and about certain web-connected devices on which you use the Picart Services. For example, we use information collected about your use of the Picart Services on your phone to better personalize the content (including ads) or features you see when you use the Picart Services on another device, such as your laptop, or to measure whether you took an action in response to an ad we showed you on your phone on a different device.

With Whom We Share Your Personal Information
Personal information (and non-personal information) collected through the Picart Services may be shared with companies and organizations that perform services on our behalf (for example, companies that provide data management or other support services to us such as Heroku). We may share your personal information (and non-personal information) with third-party ads services which include Google, Facebook, and InMobi to serve you relevant advertising and market our products, but we won't sell your personal information. Also, we may disclose the personal information we collect through the Picart Services when we, in good faith, believe disclosure is appropriate to:
comply with applicable law (e.g., in response to a valid court order or subpoena);
prevent or investigate a possible crime, such as fraud or identity theft;
enforce the Terms of Service or other agreements that govern your use of the Picart Services and/or any of our other services;
to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our users, or others; or
to protect your vital interests.
If we are going to release your information in response to a legal process, our policy is to provide you with the reasonable advance notice under the circumstances unless we are prohibited from doing so by law or court order (e.g., an order under 18U.S.C. § 2705(b)). We may disclose your information without giving you prior notice if we believe it is necessary to prevent imminent and serious bodily harm to a person. Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to limit any legal objections or defenses you might have to efforts by third parties to compel disclosure of your information, including legal orders from the government. Your personal information and other data collected by us may be transferred to another company that has acquired our stock or assets, for example, as a result of a sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution or liquidation. If such a transfer occurs, the acquiring company's use of your personal information will still be subject to this Privacy Policy.
How To Modify or Delete Your Data History
We respect your right to make choices about the ways we collect, use and disclose your personal information. You may update or modify your information or change your privacy preferences at any time by emailing us at info@appsdoze.in or, in some instances, via Picart Services. You may opt-out of receiving promotional communications from us, including, but not limited to, promotional emails, by emailing us at info@appsdoze.in. Transactional service communications (such as messages about your registration) are not subject to the foregoing opt-out procedures. Requests to disable your account or reset your password should be sent to info@appsdoze.in for faster processing. Note, though, that we may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

However, we cannot delete your personal information except by also deleting your user account. Also, information that others have shared about you is not part of your account and will not be deleted.

However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security measures.
