Privacy Policy

Updated: Aug. 22nd, 2022

 

This privacy policy “Privacy Policy” contains important information regarding SNOW Corp. (“SNOW,” “us,” “our,” or “we”), and how and why we collect, store, use, and share your personal information.  It also explains your rights in relation to your personal information and how to contact us or supervisory authorities in the event you have a complaint.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before using SNOW’s GlowUp mobile application and related services, the GlowUp website, and all publicly-available websites and subdomains provided by us on which a link to this Privacy Policy is displayed (collectively or individually referred to as the “Application”).  By using the Application, you consent to the collection, transfer, process, storage, disclosure, and use of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.  If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, then please do not use the Application.

This Privacy Policy may change from time to time.  Your continued use of the Application after we revise this Privacy Policy means you accept those changes, so please check the Privacy Policy periodically for updates.

 

1. SCOPE OF PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy is part of the Terms of Service for the Application and includes any separate privacy notices and/or notices posted on particular pages of the Application that may provide more detail regarding the information we collect on those pages, why we need that information, and choices you may have about the ways we use that information.  No matter where your information is collected, used, transferred or stored, if it was collected through the Application, it will be subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

 

2. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We may collect and use the following personal information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer:

Information You Provide To Us Directly

Information We Collect from Your Use of the Application

When you use the Application, it may use technology to automatically collect:

When you make in-app purchases ( e.g., Regular subscription, coins, etc.), we will collect related order information, including IP address, unique device identification code, order number, transaction time, product category and product price.  This information is collected when you provide us with your payment information to place an order through the Application.

We use third-party analytics tools to help us measure traffic and usage trends for the Application.  These tools collect information sent by your device to our Application, including the content and ads that you view or click, and other information that assists us in improving the Application.  We collect and use this analytics information in the aggregate with analytics information from other users so that it cannot reasonably be used to identify any particular individual user.

When you use the Application, we allow third-party companies to collect certain information.  These companies may utilize cookies, pixels, or other similar technologies to collect and use non-personally identifiable information in order to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you.  To learn more about this behavioral advertising practice or to opt-out of this type of advertising, you can visit the websites of the Digital Advertising Alliance at www.aboutads.info and Networking Advertising Initiative at www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.

When you use the Application, we may automatically collect and store certain information in server logs.  This may include:

- Information on how you interact with the Application.

- Your IP address.

- Device event information such as crashes, system activity, hardware settings, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and referral URL.

Metadata refers to technical data associated with user content.  Put simply, metadata is data that describes data.  For example, metadata can describe the analysis results of facial features, the characters in photos, and other elements contained in photos, which are generated and tagged by the computer algorithm and artificial intelligence.  When you use the Services, we will use photo metadata to provide you with certain features including precise “Facial Recognition,” “Key-Points Recognition, “ “Region Segmentation, “ “Content Tags” and other custom features based on a combination of these basic features.  We may use your photo metadata to provide you with more suitable filters and better photo effects when the Application processes your photos; we may also make use of the metadata to serve up more contextually relevant products or services to you.

GlowUp uses face recognition technology to recognize faces in photos.

We detect facial marks to provide face recognition contents and facial manipulation features - specifically, to apply filters and makeup on the appropriate face position.

We do not use such information for identifying a specific person.  This information is processed in real-time for providing features of the Application.

Certain features (filters, effects, etc.) will send, store, use and process facial recognition information, metadata, or images to/on our servers, which may include designated portions of third-party cloud service providers’ servers that we control.  We permanently delete all such information when the initial purpose for collecting the facial image data no longer exists, or, if earlier, within three (3) years of your last interaction with us.

You must expressly consent to our collection and use of such facial recognition technology and data in order to use the Application and you may not use the Application without providing such express consent.

We may collect device and usage information such as:

- Mobile ad identifiers such as iOS Identifier for Advertising(IDFA) and Android Advertising ID(AAID)

- Other information about a user’s device, such as: device type (e.g., tablet, smartphone), operating system, IP address, network provider, mobile carrier, mobile browser type (e.g., Firefox, Chrome, Safari), other apps and SDKs installed on the device, timestamp, time zone, information about the speed, bearing, orientation, and altitude of a device, or other device-identifying information.

- Information about the possible relationships among different devices.

- Data about user activities (e.g., the pages you view, the time and duration of your activities in the App) that helps us determine how a user interacts with advertising or content, such as determining whether a user who viewed a particular advertisement ultimately purchased the advertised product or service.

We may collect this information when the Application runs in the background on your device.

If you do not want this information to be linked to your device, you may go to your device settings (which are somewhat different for iOS and Android devices) and opt out of interest-based or personalized advertising.
