Privacy Policy

What Is Personal Information?

“Personal Information” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person; an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, address, telephone number, mobile number or e-mail address, an identification number, location information, an online identifier, or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

“Sensitive Personal Information” means racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union members, the processing of genetic, biometric data for purposes of uniquely identifying a natural person, and information concerning an individual’s health, sex life, or sexual orientation. We treat your Personal Information and Sensitive Personal Information as confidential.

“Other Information” is any information that is not Personal Information or Sensitive Personal Information. Personal Information does not include anonymized or “aggregate” information, or publicly available information that has not been combined with Personal Information or Sensitive Personal Information.

What Information Do We Collect And When Do We Collect It?

We may collect your Personal Information in the following circumstances:

When you voluntarily provide it to us, such as when you register for an account with your email and password, or by using a social login (“Alpha Web3 Login Credentials”), send us an email or post information or other content to our Site or Service;
When you connect a Third Party Platform with your Alpha Web3 account we will receive information from that service (such as your username, basic profile information) via the authorization procedures used by that service. Any additional information we receive depends on which services you authorize and any options that are available;
If you purchase a subscription to the Service requiring billing or payment information, we require that you provide certain additional Personal Information, including your address, phone number, and credit card number (“Payment Information”). This information is necessary to process your requests and to contact you; and
When you accept another user’s invitation to connect on the Service.

When you utilize the Service, we also receive certain Other Information about you or your use of the Service. Such Other Information may be collected using various technologies, including:

Logs: We track the data you see in Alpha Web3 and how you interact with it by automatically collecting certain information such as, the pages you visit or features you use within the Service, the date and time of your activities on the Service, the URLs from the websites you visit before and after navigating to the Service, your software and hardware attributes (including operating system type and version, App version, device type, and device identifiers, including IDFA and/or Advertising IDs), your browser type and version, and your general geographic location derived through your IP address (e.g., your city, state, or metropolitan region). To obtain such information, we may use web logs or applications that recognize your device and gather information about its online activity. We treat this information as confidential if we combine it with or link it to any of your Personal Information. We use tracking data about individuals to inform us about how Alpha Web3 is being used to help us provide a better user experience.
Cookies: Like almost all websites today, Alpha Web3 uses cookies to determine whether you are logged in on your device and to recognize repeat visitors. We send cookies to your device in order to uniquely identify your browser and improve the quality of our Service. Cookies are small pieces of information that a website sends to your device's hard drive while you are viewing a site. We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them). If you wish to restrict or block the cookies which are set by Alpha Web3, or by any other website, you can do this through your browser settings. Please note, if you choose to disable cookies, some of our Service may not work properly or at all.
Web beacons: The Service or the emails that you receive from us may use an application known as a “web beacon” (also known as a “clear gif” or “pixel tag”). A web beacon is an electronic file that usually consists of a single-pixel image. It can be embedded in a web page or in an email to transmit information. For example, it allows an email sender to determine whether a user has opened a particular email.
Local storage: We may collect and store information (including Personal Information) locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage (including HTML 5) and application data caches.

Alpha Web3 keeps Personal Information contained in your cookies and obtained through the other tracking technologies confidential. We do not set any cookies outside of the link-tech-in-fashion domain.

We also may partner with certain third parties to collect, analyze, and use some of the Personal and Other Information described in this section. For example, we may allow third parties to set cookies or use web beacons on the Service or in email communications from Alpha Web3. This information may be used for a variety of purposes, including analytics.
