These entries are also a contract between you and the competition host, and we need your personal information to host the Services offered under that contract (see the Terms of Use for additional information). If you do not provide the minimum amount of personal data required to register an account, including your name and email address, you cannot use the Services, as this information is necessary for contractual reasons. Certain parts of the Services also require you to provide a mobile phone number, which is needed to protect against fraud and abuse.

For example, we use cookies to ensure proper navigation between pages on the Services. Kaggle may use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Services. </p> <p>Persistent cookies can be removed. Please review your web browser’s “Help” file to learn the proper way to modify your cookie settings. If you delete, or choose not to accept, cookies from the Services, you may not be able to utilize the features of the Services to their fullest potential.</p> <p>We may also implement on the Services third party content, such as advertising or analytic services, that uses “clear gifs,” “web beacons,” or other similar techniques, which allow the third party content provider to read and write cookies to your browser or implement similar tracking mechanisms. This information is collected directly by the third party, and Kaggle does not participate in that data transmission. Information collected by third parties in this manner is subject to that third party’s own data collection, use, and disclosure policies. We currently implement services provided by Google Analytics and Facebook.</p>Linked accounts<p>When you link an account you may have on a third party service (such as a third party social networking site or email provider) to your Kaggle account, Kaggle collects certain information stored in connection with that account that you have configured that service to make available, including your email address, provider ID, first and last name, and profile picture. By linking your accounts in this manner, you authorize Kaggle to access and use your account on the third party service in connection with your use of the Services.</p>Why Kaggle Collects Information<p>Kaggle uses the information we collect for the following purposes:</p>Provide Our Services<p>We use your information to deliver our Services, like administering competitions you enter or hosting datasets you upload or access. For example, we use the IP address assigned to your device to send you the data you requested, such as loading a dataset. Another example is that we use unique identifiers stored in cookies on your device to help us authenticate you as the person who should have access to your Kaggle account.</p>Maintain &amp. Improve Our Services<p>We also use your information to ensure our Services are working as intended, such as tracking outages or troubleshooting issues that you report to us. For example, we continuously monitor our systems to look for problems. And if we find something wrong with a specific feature, reviewing activity information collected before the problem started allows us to fix things more quickly.</p> <p>And we use your information to make improvements to our Services – for example, to understand and analyze the usage trends and preferences of our Kaggle account members and to improve the way the Services work and look.</p> <p>For example, we use cookies to analyze how people interact with our Services, which can help us build better products. It may help us discover that it’s taking people too long to complete a certain task or that they have trouble finishing steps at all. We can then redesign that feature and improve the product for everyone.</p>Develop New Services<p>We use the information we collect in existing Services to help us create new features and functionality.</p>Provide Personalized Services<p>We use the information we collect to customize our Services for you, including remembering your information so that you will not have to log-in again the next time you visit the Services if you haven’t signed out. We also use data to provide customized third party content and information and to track your status in any Competitions or other activities. In addition, we may use the information we collect to provide personalized and relevant content and advertising, for example showing you events near your location based on your IP address.</p>Measure Performance<p>We use data for analytics and measurement to understand how our Services are used. For example, we analyze data about your visits to our sites to do things like optimize product design, monitor and analyze the operation and effectiveness of the Services and related activities, and monitor aggregate site usage metrics such as total number of visitors and pages viewed. We use a variety of tools to do this, including Google Analytics. Google Analytics relies on first-party cookies, which means the cookies are set by Kaggle. You can opt-out from Google Analytics by clicking here.</p>Communicate with You<p>We use information we collect, like your email address, to interact with you directly. For example, we may send you a notification if we detect suspicious activity on your account, or we may let you know about upcoming changes or improvements to our Services. We will also use your email address to contact you with respect to competition entries, prize awards and otherwise in connection with competitions. for administrative and customer service purposes. to address intellectual property infringement, rights of privacy, or defamation issues. or regarding things you post on the Services. And if you contact Kaggle, we’ll keep a record of your request to help solve any issues you might be facing.</p> <p>Kaggle also uses your email address or other personal information to send you messages about the Services and communications from other Members. We may also send you messages related to the Services and the activities of third parties we work with. These messages may be targeted at you based on your activities on our Services, for example your interaction with a particular dataset or your entry into a specific competition. You will have the ability to opt-out of receiving any such communications, either through links provided in the messages, or by updating your Member Account settings through the Services.</p>Protect Kaggle, Our Users, and the Public<p>We use information to help improve the safety and reliability of our Services. This includes detecting, preventing, and responding to fraud, abuse, security risks, and technical issues that could harm Kaggle, our users, or the public. For example, we collect and analyze IP addresses and cookie data to protect against automated abuse. This abuse can take many forms, such as sending spam to Kaggle users or launching a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack.</p> <p>We also analyze your content to help us detect abuse such as spam, malware, and illegal content. When we detect spam, malware, illegal content, and other forms of abuse on our systems in violation of our policies, we may disable your account or take other appropriate action. In certain circumstances, we may also report the violation to appropriate authorities.</p>Managing and Deleting Your InformationManaging, Reviewing, and Updating Your Information<p>When you’re signed into your Kaggle account, you can always review and update information by visiting your account profile.</p>Exporting, Removing &amp. Deleting Your Information<p>You can export a copy of content in your Kaggle account if you want to back it up or use it with a service outside of Kaggle by contacting us here. You may update, correct, or delete your profile information and preferences at any time by accessing your account settings page or editing your Kaggle account profile through the Services.</p> <p>You can also delete your discussion posts, uploaded datasets, and notebooks by using the available tools in our Services. If desired, you can delete your entire Kaggle account by choosing that option in your account settings page.</p> <p>Please note that while your deletions are reflected promptly in active member databases, in some cases, we retain data for limited periods when it needs to be kept for legitimate business or legal purposes. See “Data Retention” below for more information.</p> <p>There are other ways to control the information Kaggle collects whether or not you’re signed in to a Kaggle account, including configuring your browser to indicate when Kaggle has set a cookie in your browser. You can also configure your browser to block all cookies from a specific domain or all domains. But remember that our Services rely on cookies to function properly.</p>Data RetentionInformation Retained Until You Remove It<p>As we describe above, you can delete your entire Kaggle account or selectively delete your discussion posts, uploaded datasets, and notebooks by using the available tools in our Services. In some cases, rather than provide a way to delete data, we store it for a predetermined period of time. For each type of data, we set retention timeframes based on the reason for its collection.</p>Information Retained For Extended Time Periods for Limited Purposes<p>Sometimes business and legal requirements require us to retain certain information for specific purposes for an extended period of time. For example, when you submit an entry in a competition, we may retain this information for a longer period of time to guard against cheating, for example, or for legal purposes. Reasons we might retain some data for longer periods of time include:</p> <ul> <li>Security, fraud &amp. abuse prevention</li> <li>Financial record-keeping</li> <li>Complying with legal or regulatory requirements</li> <li>Ensuring the continuity of our services</li> </ul>Enabling Safe and Complete Deletion<p>When you delete data in your Kaggle account, we immediately start the process of removing it from the product and our systems. First, we aim to immediately remove it from view. For example, if you delete a post you made, we will immediately remove that from the public-facing Kaggle website.</p> <p>We then begin a process designed to safely and completely delete the data from our storage systems. Safe deletion is important to protect our users and customers from accidental data loss. Complete deletion of data from our servers is equally important for users’ peace of mind. This process generally takes around 2 months from the time of deletion. This often includes up to a month-long recovery period in case the data was removed unintentionally.</p> <p>Each of our storage systems from which data gets deleted has its own detailed process for safe and complete deletion. This might involve repeated passes through the system to confirm all data has been deleted, or brief delays to allow for recovery from mistakes. As a result, deletion could sometimes take longer when extra time is needed to safely and completely delete the data.</p> <p>Our services also use encrypted backup storage as another layer of protection to help recover from potential disasters. Data can remain on these systems for up to 6 months.</p> <p>As with any deletion process, things like routine maintenance, unexpected outages, bugs, or failures in our protocols may cause delays in the processes and timeframes defined in this article. We maintain systems designed to detect and remediate such issues.</p>Sharing Your InformationWhen You Share Your Information<p>Many of our Services let you share information with other people, and you have control over how you share. Any information that you voluntarily choose to include in an area of the Services accessible to other Kaggle members or the public, such as a public profile page or in a forum posting, will be available to other Kaggle members who access that content or the public (as applicable). This also applies to information you choose to make available through features that connect to third party services, if applicable.</p> <p>Also, if you communicate directly with another Kaggle member, any information that you voluntarily choose to include in such a communication with other Kaggle members will be available to such other members. Once you make your information available in any of these ways, it could be collected and used by the recipients without restriction. We urge Kaggle members to exercise common sense, prudence and good judgment about what information to make available to others through the Services.</p>When Kaggle Shares Your Information<p>We do not sell your information.
