At ProfitPress, we have a few fundamental principles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>We are thoughtful about the personal information we ask you to provide and the personal information that we collect about you through the operation of our services.<\/li><li>We store personal information for only as long as we have a reason to keep it.<\/li><li>We aim to make it as simple as possible for you to control what information on your website is shared publicly (or kept private), indexed by search engines, and permanently deleted.<\/li><li>We help protect you from overreaching government demands for your personal information.<\/li><li>We aim for full transparency on how we gather, use, and share your personal information.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is ProfitPress&#8217; privacy policy, which incorporates and clarifies these principles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who We Are and What This Policy Covers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hey there! We&#8217;re the folks behind a variety of products and services designed to help WordPress experts make more money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This Privacy Policy applies to information that we collect about you when you use:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Our websites;<\/li><li>Our mobile applications.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout this Privacy Policy we\u2019ll refer to our website, mobile applications and other products and services collectively as \u201cServices.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below we explain how we collect, use, and share information about you, along with the choices that you have with respect to that information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please note that this Privacy Policy does not apply to any of our products or services that have a separate privacy policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please\u00a0contact us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Information We Collect<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We only collect information about you if we have a reason to do so\u2013for example, to provide our Services, to communicate with you, or to make our Services better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We collect information in three ways: if and when you provide information to us, automatically through operating our services, and from outside sources. Let\u2019s go over the information that we collect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Information You Provide to Us <\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s probably no surprise that we collect information that you provide to us. The amount and type of information depends on the context and how we use the information. Here are some examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Basic Account Information: <\/strong>We ask for basic information from you in order to set up your account. For example, we require individuals who sign up for an ProfitPress\u00a0account to provide an email address.<\/li><li><strong>Public Profile Information: <\/strong>If you have an account with us, we collect the information that you provide for your public profile. For example, if you have an ProfitPress account, your username is part of that public profile, along with any other information you put into your public profile. Your public profile is just that\u2013public\u2013so please keep that in mind when deciding what information you would like to include.<\/li><li><strong>Transaction and Billing Information:<\/strong> If you buy something from us\u2013a subscription to a ProfitPress membership plan, or a premium guide, for example\u2013you will provide additional personal and payment information that is required to process the transaction and your payment, such as your name, credit card information, and contact information.<\/li><li><strong>Credentials: <\/strong>Depending on the Services you use, you may provide us with credentials for your website (like username and password). For example, ProfitPress users may provide us with these credentials to use certain features or to provide support if there is a problem with their account, or to allow us to troubleshoot problems on their account more quickly.<\/li><li><strong>Communications with Us (Hello!): <\/strong>You may also provide us information when you respond to surveys, communicate with our team about a support question, or post a question about your site in our public forums.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Information We Collect Automatically <\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We also collect some information automatically:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Log Information: <\/strong>Like most online service providers, we collect information that web browsers, mobile devices, and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, IP address, unique device identifiers, language preference, referring site, the date and time of access, operating system, and mobile network information. We collect log information when you use our Services\u2013for example, when you create or make changes to your ProfitPress site.<\/li><li><strong>Usage Information:<\/strong> We collect information about your usage of our Services. For example, we collect information about the actions that site administrators and users perform on a site\u2013in other words, who did what, when and to what thing on a site (e.g., [ProfitPress username] modified \u201c[title of page]\u201d at [time\/date]). We also collect information about what happens when you use our Services (e.g., page views, support document searches, button clicks) along with information about your device (e.g., mobile screen size, name of cellular network, and mobile device manufacturer). We use this information to, for example, provide our Services to you, as well as get insights on how people use our Services, so we can make our Services better.<\/li><li><strong>Location Information: <\/strong>We may determine the approximate location of your device from your IP address. We collect and use this information to, for example, calculate how many people visit our Services from certain geographic regions. We may also collect information about your precise location via our mobile apps (when, for example, you post a photograph with location information) if you allow us to do so through your mobile device operating system\u2019s permissions.<\/li><li><strong>Stored Information: <\/strong>We may access information stored on your mobile device via our mobile app. We access this stored information through your device operating system\u2019s permissions. &nbsp;For example, if you give us permission to access the photographs on your mobile device\u2019s camera roll, our Services may access the photos stored on your device when you upload a new profile picture.<\/li><li><strong>Information from Cookies &amp; Other Technologies: <\/strong>A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor\u2019s computer, and that the visitor\u2019s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. Pixel tags (also called web beacons) are small blocks of code placed on websites and e-mails. ProfitPress uses cookies and other technologies like pixel tags to help us identify and track visitors, usage, and access preferences for our Services, as well as track and understand e-mail campaign effectiveness and to deliver targeted ads. For more information about our use of cookies and other technologies for tracking, including how you can control the use of cookies, please see <a href=\"\/cookies\/\">here<\/a>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em><strong>Information We Collect from Other Sources<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We may also get information about you from other sources. For example, if you create or log into your ProfitPress account through another service (like Google) or if you connect your website or account to a social media service (like Twitter), we will receive information from that service (such as your username, basic profile information, and friends list) via the authorization procedures used by that service. The information we receive depends on which services you authorize and any options that are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We may also get information from third party services about individuals who are not yet our users (\u2026but we hope will be!), which we may use, for example, for marketing and advertising purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em><strong>Detailed Breakdown of Additional Information Collected<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact Form<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Data Used:<\/strong> Contact form submission data \u2014 IP address, user agent, name, email address, website, subject and message \u2014 is submitted to our spam service for the sole purpose of spam checking.

Public information may also be indexed by search engines or used by third parties. Please keep all of this in mind when deciding what you would like to share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Security<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While no online service is 100% secure, we work very hard to protect information about you against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction, and take reasonable measures to do so.
