This includes: Account Information: If you create an Alluder account, we require you to provide a username and password. Your username is public, and it doesn’t have to be related to your real name. You may also provide other account information, like an email address. We also store your user account preferences and settings. Content You Submit: We collect the content you submit to the Services. This includes your posts and comments. Your content may include text, links, images, gifs, and videos. Actions You Take: We collect information about the actions you take when using the Services. This includes your interactions with content, such as liking, saving, hiding, and reporting. Other Information: You may choose to provide other information directly to us. For example, we may collect information when you fill out a form, apply for a job, request customer support, or otherwise communicate with us.   Information We Collect Automatically When you access or use our Services, we may also automatically collect information about you. This includes: Log and Usage Data: We may log information when you access and use the Services. This may include your IP address, user-agent string, browser type, operating system, referral URLs, device information (e.g., device IDs), device settings, pages visited, links clicked, the requested URL, and search terms. Except for the IP address used to create your account, Alluder will delete any IP addresses collected after 100 days. Information Collected from Cookies and Similar Technologies: We may receive information from cookies, which are pieces of data your browser stores and sends back to us when making requests, and similar technologies. We use this information to improve your experience, understand user activity, personalize content and advertisements, and improve the quality of our Services. For example, we store and retrieve information about your preferred language and other settings. See our Cookie Notice for more information about how Alluder uses cookies. Location Information: We may receive and process information about your location. This allows us to know what content is available via OTT’s in a given location.   Information Collected from Other Sources We may receive information about you from other sources, including from other users and third parties, and combine that information with the other information we have about you. For example, we may receive demographic or interest information about you from Google, and combine it with our own data using a common account identifier such as a hash of an email address or a mobile-device ID. Linked Services: If you authorize or link a third-party service (e.g., gmail) to access your Alluder account, Alluder receives information about your use of that service when it uses that authorization. Linking services may also cause the other service to send us information about your account with that service. For example, if you sign in to Alluder with a third-party identity provider, that provider may share an email address with us. We use information about you to: <ul> <li>Provide, maintain, and improve the Services;</li> <li>Research and develop new services;</li> <li>Help protect the safety of Alluder and our users, which includes blocking suspected spammers, addressing abuse, and enforcing the Alluder User Agreement and our other policies;</li> <li>Send you technical notices, updates, security alerts, invoices, and other support and administrative messages;</li> <li>Provide customer service;</li> <li>Communicate with you about services;</li> <li>Monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities in connection with our Services;</li> <li>Personalize the Services, and provide and optimize content and features that match user profiles or interests.</li> </ul> Much of the information on the Services is accessible to the public.

When you submit content (including a post or comment) to a public part of the Services, any visitors and users of our Services will be able to see that content, the username associated with the content, and the date and time you originally submitted the content.  Your Alluder account has a profile page that is public. Your profile contains information about your activities on the Services, such as your username, prior posts and comments, awards received, and how long you have been a member of the Services. We do not sell your personal information. However, in addition to the personal information that is displayed publicly as described above, we may share personal information in the following ways: <ul> <li> With your consent.

We may share information in response to a request for information if we believe disclosure is in accordance with, or required by, any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, including, but not limited to, meeting national security or law enforcement requirements.
