We will seek your prior consent to any material changes, if and where this is required by applicable data protection laws. If you do not opt-in, your information will continue to be used in a manner that is consistent with the version of this Policy under which it was collected, or the information will be deleted.

Collection and Use of Information

Personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) is generally defined as information that, by itself or in combination with other information, is reasonably capable of being linked to a specific individual or household. Personal Information can include, but is not limited to, name, physical address, telephone number, email address, username and password, age/birthdate, credit/debit card number or other payment information, photograph, office address and other business information, biometric data (e.g., fingerprints), state or federal identification numbers (e.g., driver’s license number; social security number; passport number), or any other type of data that, directly or indirectly, is reasonably capable of being associated with someone.

There are areas of the Services where you may be asked to provide SocialBubb with Personal Information or other data, or where such Personal Information or other data may be collected in an automated manner. For example, Personal Information (and other related data) such as your name, email address, username and password or other account access information, credit/debit card or other payment information, internet protocol (IP) address and other persistent online identifiers, and any other Personal Information or other data you voluntarily provide through the Services may be collected from you when you:

set up a SocialBubb account;
authenticate and verify your identity for security purposes;
upload, post, publish, share or otherwise make content available to other users, to the extent such content includes your Personal Information or other data;
purchase a subscription to access and use SocialBubb’s Services, or when you purchase anything else through the Services;
contact SocialBubb with questions, comments or other messages;
complete and submit the Creator Request form, Group Request form, Request an Invitation form, or any other form available through the Services;
sign up to receive communications about SocialBubb Services; or
otherwise provide any information to us voluntarily through the Services.

SocialBubb generally will not ask you to provide any sensitive data such as your religious beliefs, any mental or physical health diagnoses you received, your sexual orientation, or your race, ethnicity, citizenship or immigration status, but you may be able to voluntarily provide such sensitive data in content you upload or post while using the Services. To the extent you include any such sensitive data in content you make available through the Services, you hereby acknowledge and agree that such data may be processed by SocialBubb as necessary to provide the Services in accordance with your instructions.

Depending on the nature of the activity, such as if you publicly upload or post content with Personal Information through the Services, other users of the Services may be able to view such Personal Information.

SocialBubb may use your Personal Information and other data to:

deliver content on or through the Services;
process payments for the Services including, without limitation, in connection with subscriptions;
maintain proper business records and other relevant records;
respond to your questions, comments or other messages;
send you communications about SocialBubb Services;
contact you about issues with content you may have uploaded or posted through the Services;
provide ongoing technical support related to the Services;
communicate with you regarding additional uses of your Personal Information beyond the scope of the Policy or this list;
improve the content and general administration of the Services;
perform internal operations related to the Services (e.g., spam and fraud prevention);
troubleshoot software issues and operational problems with the Services;
conduct data analysis and testing for, among other reasons, improving the functionality of the Services and presentation of the Services to potential sponsors and investors; and/or

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

There are areas of the Services where SocialBubb or its service providers may automatically collect certain pieces of data as you use the Services and navigate elsewhere online, such as your IP address and other data about your internet connection, your operating system, browser type, and other services or equipment you use to access the Site and usage data about your interaction with SocialBubb’s Services. This automatically collected data generally does not identify any specific individual, but to the extent such data is reasonably capable of identifying you or another person, we will treat such data as Personal Information. For example, SocialBubb uses third-party service providers to help host the Services, and such hosting providers may have access to certain automatically collected data as a result.

You may be able to disable cookies by consulting your browser and/or computer settings. Please note that any disabling of cookies could affect how the Services appear and/or operate for you.

We may also use third-party analytics providers that could automatically collect certain data about you through the Services including, but not limited to, your IP address and/or other online identifiers which could qualify as Personal Information depending on where you live. Third-party cookies may be used through this process to track data such as the times you most frequently use the Services, what devices you use to access the Services, what parts of the Services you visit and the links you use to get there. These data and analytics service providers may use such information to track how you use the Services, measure the performance of the Services, improve features on the Services, and provide overall operating needs. SocialBubb may then use feedback from these service providers to improve the Services and our interactions with you.

All of the above-referenced IP addresses and other data will be collected in an automated manner and we may maintain it or associate it with certain other Personal Information we collect in other ways or receive from third parties. This helps us improve our Services, deliver better and more personalized Services, estimate our audience size and usage patterns, and store information about your preferences.

By providing to SocialBubb the Personal Information and other data referenced above, you agree that SocialBubb may use such Personal Information and other data in accordance with the terms of this Policy.

Sharing Information

SocialBubb will share or permit third-party access to Personal Information collected through the Services as necessary to fulfill the business purposes for which the Personal Information was collected, as otherwise set forth below, or with the express consent of the user.

SocialBubb may share certain portions of Personal Information with vendors that help provide certain Services on behalf of SocialBubb in order to make those Services function properly. This may include sharing Personal Information with:

hosting and platform providers that provide essential services to help us operate the Site, App and other Services;
payment processors to administer any payments or transactions you authorize while using the SocialBubb Services;
customer support service providers to process and respond to any questions, comments, or other feedback you may have about the SocialBubb Services;
email marketing vendors to send you communications about SocialBubb Services and related features; and/or
security and identity verification providers to help ensure your SocialBubb account is not subject to unauthorized access or use.

SocialBubb will disclose your Personal Information or other data if it reasonably believes it is required to do so by law or in cooperation with a government or law enforcement investigation. SocialBubb also may share Personal Information or other data in order to avoid imminent physical harm to any person or damage to property.

Personal Information received or held by SocialBubb may be transferred to any entity that succeeds to the assets or business of SocialBubb by any merger, consolidation, combination, reorganization, sale of assets, or in connection with any transfer as part of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding. Under such circumstances, SocialBubb will make reasonable efforts to cause any successor to agree to abide by the terms of this Policy.

We also may disclose your Personal Information to other service providers to carry out our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts related to your use of the Services, including for billing and collections, or as otherwise described to you at or before the point when we collect your Personal Information.

Other than what is referenced above, the Personal Information and other data collected from you is neither shared with nor sold to any person or entity outside of SocialBubb.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you reside, you may be able to exercise certain rights with respect to Personal Information SocialBubb has collected about you, such as rights to:

Confirm whether SocialBubb has collected and is processing your Personal Information and, if so, you may have a right to access such data;
Correct any inaccuracies about your Personal Information, depending on what kind of Personal Information it is and the purposes for which SocialBubb is processing that data;
Delete Personal Information you provided to SocialBubb or that we have otherwise collected about you;
Obtain a copy of Personal Information SocialBubb maintains about you in a portable and readily usable format, if technically feasible, that would allow you to transfer such Personal Information to another person or entity, where the applicable processing is carried out by automated means; and
Opt-out of any processing of your Personal Information for the purposes of, as applicable, (1) targeted advertising based on your browsing behavior before and after you visit or use the Services, (2) any sale of your Personal Information, or (3) any profiling of you based on collected Personal Information in a way that would produce legal ramifications or similarly significant real-world effects on you.

If you would like to request the ability to access, review, edit, or delete any Personal Information that SocialBubb may have collected about you, opt-out of receiving further information from SocialBubb, limit what we share, or if you otherwise wish to exercise available privacy rights or ask SocialBubb to cease using your Personal Information in the manners specified in this Policy (subject to any applicable legal exceptions), please contact us at support@socialbubb.com.

SocialBubb may refuse any request made regarding collected Personal Information if it is unable to verify the identity of the person making the request or if it cannot authenticate the legitimacy of the request using commercially reasonable efforts. Under such circumstances, SocialBubb may follow up with you for additional information as reasonably necessary to authenticate your request. SocialBubb will use service providers to verify the identity of anyone that requests the disclosure or deletion of Personal Information. If you have a password-protected account with us, we will use our existing authentication procedures to verify your identity. For most other requests from anyone that does not have a password-protected account with us, SocialBubb will ask you to provide information that matches at least two pieces of Personal Information we store about you before responding to your request. If you would like to request specific pieces of your Personal Information we have collected, or if you would like us to delete highly sensitive information, you will need to provide information that matches at least three pieces of information we store about you, and you must provide a signed declaration that you are the individual whose Personal Information you are requesting.

When attempting to verify your identity, we will avoid asking you for more sensitive information such as your full name or payment information. Instead, we may ask you to provide other types of less sensitive information to match what we have in our records. For example, we may ask for part of your name or portions of the address for your home, office or business, among other types of information. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

Any removal of content by SocialBubb does not ensure or guarantee complete or comprehensive removal of the content in all places. The content may have been shared or reposted by other parties, or federal or state law may require maintenance of the content or information. SocialBubb will do its best to accommodate your request, but we cannot guarantee we can remove all Personal Information from the specified uses. Therefore, please be as specific as possible in your request. If the request relates to information that SocialBubb needs to make the Services function properly for you, you may not be able to use the Services properly moving forward.

SocialBubb reserves the right to maintain proper business records as required by law, or for otherwise legitimate business purposes to the extent permitted by law, even if such records contain your Personal Information.

If you would like to opt-out of receiving promotional emails from SocialBubb, please follow the opt-out instructions at the bottom of the email or send us a detailed email at support@socialbubb.com.

SocialBubb does not knowingly collect any information from minors, nor are the Services directed at or intended for minors. If a minor uploads or posts information through the Services without authorization, and such information becomes publicly available, please contact us immediately at support@socialbubb.com with the subject heading “URGENT – Reporting Platform Activity by a Minor” and follow any additional instructions contained in the “Children’s Information” section of this Policy, below. If SocialBubb learns we have collected or received any minor’s Personal Information, we will delete such information immediately. Again, any removal of content by SocialBubb does not ensure or guarantee complete or comprehensive removal of the content in all places. The content may have been shared or reposted by other parties, or federal, state, or other applicable law may require maintenance of the content or information.

Some browsers have a ”do not track” feature that lets you tell web sites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. As referenced above, SocialBubb does not sell any Personal Information collected through the Services, which are not currently configured to respond to “do not track” or similar automated privacy controls. To learn more about ways to possibly opt-out of certain kinds of tracking that occur when you browse the internet generally and may lead to targeted advertising, visit the Network Advertising Initiative website and the Digital Advertising Alliance website. Options you select are browser- and device-specific, and there is no guarantee that these industry-provided opt-out tools will prevent all targeted advertising. As noted previously in this Policy, it is possible that certain third parties may collect or receive information through the Services. Since it is possible that some of these third parties may respond differently than SocialBubb to “do not track” requests, you should consult the applicable privacy policies of those third parties for that information.

Data Security and Retention

The Services use security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information to ensure that any collected Personal Information is stored and maintained in a secure environment. The Services use managerial and technical safeguards designed to protect against the loss or unauthorized use or disclosure of Personal Information. These safeguards include SSL encryption.

While SocialBubb takes the issue of protecting your Personal Information seriously, you should exercise discretion in what information you disclose and/or transmit through the Services. SocialBubb cannot guarantee that information transmitted online is fully secure. The transmitted information may be intercepted by others before it reaches SocialBubb. If you are concerned about sending information to SocialBubb online, please send the information by mail or call us to make other arrangements. SocialBubb is not responsible for the security of information transmitted online.

SocialBubb retains collected information for a reasonable amount of time in order to fulfill the stated purpose for why the information was collected. SocialBubb also will retain collected information connected to business records for periods of time required by law. If SocialBubb determines that collected information is no longer needed, it will delete such information. Our collection times will be consistent with applicable law.

Children’s Information

The Services are not directed at, marketed to, nor intended for, individuals under 16 years of age. No one under the age of 16 is permitted to provide any information on or through the Services. If you are under 16 years of age, DO NOT: use or provide any information on or through the Services; use any of the Services’ features; use any interactive or public commenting feature on the Services; and/or provide any information about yourself to SocialBubb. SocialBubb does not and will not knowingly collect any information, including Personal Information, from any person under 16 years of age and SocialBubb will take prompt steps to delete any such information if it is inadvertently received. If SocialBubb learns that we have received Personal Information from any person under 16 years of age, SocialBubb will delete that information. If you believe SocialBubb might have information from or about any person under 16 years of age, please contact us immediately at support@socialbubb.com, title the email “URGENT – Reporting Platform Activity by a Minor” and provide specific details that will allow SocialBubb to track down the applicable information as soon as possible.

Non-U.S. Concerns

The Services are meant for individuals within the United States. SocialBubb only knowingly collects information from individuals within the United States. If you provide information to SocialBubb from outside of the United States, you do so at your own risk. If you are outside of the United States, you are responsible for complying with any local laws regarding your use of the Services, and any related data collection. You also agree and acknowledge that by providing any information, including Personal Information, through the Services, that such information will be transmitted to, and stored in, the United States.

If you are visiting from the European Union or other regions with laws governing data collection and use, please note that you are agreeing to the transfer of your information to the United States and processing globally. By providing your information, you consent to any transfer and processing in accordance with this Policy and our EU Privacy Policy, found here/below.

External Links

The Services may contain links to external web sites or other online services, including those embedded in third-party advertisements or sponsor information, which are not controlled by SocialBubb. We are not responsible for the privacy practices and data collection policies for such third-party services. You should consult the privacy policies of those third-party services for details.

SocialBubb may also allow interaction between our Services and other third-party services online, such as other social media providers. This may include plugins that allow you to share information with persons outside of the Services. Please consult the privacy policies of such third-party providers before using them to make sure you are comfortable with the level of sharing.

Please read this privacy policy (“Policy”) carefully before using the Services, as it contains important information on who we are and how, when and why we may collect, store, use and share your personal data.

This Policy has been created to provide you with details about the kinds of personal data we may collect and how we collect it, the purposes for which we use your personal data, how we intend to securely process and store that data, and how you can exercise certain rights you may have with regard to how SocialBubb handles personal data it collects from you.

Along with the SocialBubb Terms of Service/End User License Agreement, which is hereby incorporated by reference, this Policy makes up our agreements with you as a user of our Services, and you hereby understand and acknowledge that by using the Services you agree to the terms of this Policy.

The Services may contain links to external web sites or other third-party online services, including those embedded in advertisements or sponsor information, which are not controlled by SocialBubb. We are not responsible for the privacy practices and data collection policies for such third-party services. You should consult the privacy policies of those third-party services for details.

1. Changes to this Policy

SocialBubb reserves the right to change this Policy at any time. Since this Policy may change as we modify or expand our Services, we suggest you check back from time to time in order to understand how we handle your information. Our Policy’s effective date will always be set forth at the beginning of the Policy. Any changes will be immediately incorporated into this Policy, and will be prospective only. We will not make any changes that have retroactive effect unless legally required to do so.

If any changes to this Policy materially affect how SocialBubb treats or handles personal data you already provided to SocialBubb or that has otherwise been collected by SocialBubb, we will try to provide you with notice in advance of such change(s) by highlighting the change through our Services.

2. The Purpose of SocialBubb’s Services

The purpose of SocialBubb’s Services is: (a) to provide an all-inclusive community space for individuals to share, conduct meaningful conversation, and publish rich content and ideas in group settings, while assuring their privacy without bots and malicious profiles; (b) to provide a place for creators and educators to share in their groups/spaces, and well-meaning content so that their group members would gain an enhanced understanding of the topic being presented or discussed. This space will promote and stimulate the free flowing exchange of ideas with decency and respect for each other. We at SocialBubb will work to engage, support, assist, and encourage our community members to achieve these goals of the community.

SocialBubb’s Services also are intended to provide an environment for content providers to present their content without annoying ads within group settings, and to promote respectful interaction while assuring the privacy of group members. We will look to create unique support, encouragement and promotions that will motivate both content providers and their followers or other group members to engage more deeply in the commentary and discussion of the content. This may include promoting live broadcasts to their followers, along with taking their online presence to live in-person gatherings in order to allow their followers or group members to engage with them in a way that they have not had the opportunity to engage before. This all could be achieved by publishing articles, running the events app, polls, live broadcasting capabilities, commenting, posts and group discussion.

3. Collection and Use of Personal Data

Personal data (“Personal Data”) is generally defined as information that, alone or in combination with other information, is reasonably capable of being associated with you or another identifiable person, directly or indirectly. The information we collect when you use our Services may include certain kinds of Personal Data. For example, there are areas of the Services where you may be asked to provide SocialBubb with Personal Data or other information, or where such Personal Data or other information may be collected in an automated manner.

For example, Personal Data (and other related information) such as your name, email address, username and password or other account access information, photograph, credit/debit card or other payment information, and any other Personal Data or other information you voluntarily provide through the Services may be collected from you when you:

Additionally, as you browse and use different parts of the Services, we may collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Services, and information about how you interact with the Services. To the extent such automatically collected data is reasonably capable of identifying you as Personal Data, we refer to this automatically-collected data as Device Information.

4. How and Why SocialBubb Uses Your Information

SocialBubb only uses your Personal Data when we have a proper reason for doing so, for example to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation, to perform our contract with you or for our legitimate interests of providing the Services.

We set out below what we use your Personal Data for and our reasons for doing so:

Please bear in mind that any posts and comments you make are in the public domain and may be viewed by non-registered users of the Services, on public web pages, and by other users of the Services via periodic emails showing recent activity.

You may also send friend requests to other users of SocialBubb’s Services and, should they accept, you will have the ability to send one-to-one and group messages to them. These messages are private between you and any other recipients and generally are not monitored.

As you use the Services we will keep track of what sections you have visited, so that we can highlight sections or content to you that you may have missed. We also use this data, which could include Device Information, in an aggregated form to understand how popular the Services and its different sections are so that we can improve the Services. This data is never shared with anyone and is only used for our internal purposes.

We record the last IP address you accessed the service from so that we can protect the Services from unauthorized access. As part of this we may look up the approximate location of the IP address such as country and city.

We also may use third-party analytics providers that could automatically collect certain data about you through the Services including, but not limited to, your IP address and/or other potential Device Information which could qualify as Personal Data. Third-party cookies may be used through this process to track data such as the times you most frequently use the Services, what devices you use to access the Services, what parts of the Services you visit and the links you use to get there. These data and analytics service providers may use such information to track how you use the Services, measure the performance of the Services, improve features on the Services, and provide overall operating needs. SocialBubb may then use feedback from these service providers to improve the Services and our interactions with you.

All of the above-referenced IP addresses and other data will be collected in an automated manner and we may maintain it or associate it with certain other Personal Data we collect in other ways or receive from third parties, so that it becomes Device Information. This helps us improve our Services, deliver better and more personalized Services, estimate our audience size and usage patterns, and store information about your preferences.

Your decision to disclose your Personal Data through SocialBubb is voluntary in most occasions. You may be able to disable cookies by consulting your browser and/or computer settings. Please note that any disabling of cookies could affect how the Services appear and/or operate for you. If you do not provide the Personal Data necessary for the Services to operate as intended, or withdraw your consent for the processing of your Personal Data, you may not be able to access or use certain parts of the Services.

By providing to SocialBubb the Personal Data and other information referenced above, you agree that SocialBubb may use such Personal Data and other information in accordance with the terms of this Policy.

7. International Transfers of Personal Data

To deliver our Services, data collected through the App generally will be maintained in the UK and/or the EEA, but for certain other Services, as stated above, we may need to share your Personal Data with entities in other countries.

This means that Personal Data collected within the UK and/or the EEA could be transferred outside the EEA. For example, your Personal Data may be transferred outside the EEA:

With our offices located outside the UK/EEA – this includes storage in the U.S.;
With third-party service providers located outside of the UK/EEA; and/or
Where there is an international dimension to the Services we are providing to you.

Transfers of Personal Data of individuals in the UK or EEA are subject to special rules under European and UK data protection law. This means we can only transfer Personal Data to a country outside the UK/EEA where:

the European Commission has issued an ‘adequacy decision’ in relation to that country or international organisation;
there are appropriate safeguards in place, together with enforceable rights and effective legal remedies for data subjects; or
a specific exception applies under data protection law.

SocialBubb has put in place internal appropriate safeguards to allow the sharing of Personal Data collected from individuals within the UK and/or EEA with any other entities described in this Policy and ensures that any transfer to other third parties comply with the law.

8. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you reside, you may have one or more of the following rights with regard to SocialBubb’s collection, use and sharing of your Personal Data on or through the Services:

The right to update and correct any inaccurate Personal Data SocialBubb holds about you;
The right to withdraw any consent for marketing activities or where we are relying on your consent to process your Personal Data, you have the right to withdraw that consent;
The right to request restriction of SocialBubb’s processing of your Personal Data in certain circumstances (for example, if you contest the accuracy of the data);
The right, in certain circumstances, to object to SocialBubb’s processing of Personal Data concerning you;
The right, in certain circumstances, to request the portability of Personal Data you provided to SocialBubb;
The right to request details about what Personal Data we collect, use, disclose or sell about you; and
The right, in certain circumstances, to request the erasure or deletion of Personal Data we have collected or maintain about you.

If you would like to request the ability to access, review, edit, delete or have us properly dispose of any of the Personal Data that SocialBubb collected about you, if you would like to opt-out of receiving further information from SocialBubb or limit what we share, or if you otherwise wish SocialBubb to cease using your Personal Data in the manners specified in this Policy (subject to any applicable legal exceptions), you can do so by emailing us at support@socialbubb.com.

We will seek your consent before using your Personal Data to serve you relevant content and materials based on your personal preferences, interests, location and other information that you provide to SocialBubb in connection with your use of the Services.

Any removal of content by SocialBubb does not ensure or guarantee complete or comprehensive removal in all places. The content may have been shared or reposted by other parties, or federal or state law may require maintenance of the content or information. SocialBubb will do its best to accommodate your request, but we cannot guarantee we can remove all Personal Data from the specified uses. Therefore, please be as specific as possible in your request. If the request relates to information that SocialBubb needs to make certain Services function properly for you, you may not be able to use those Services properly moving forward.

SocialBubb is required to verify the identity of any person or entity that requests the disclosure or deletion of Personal Data. If you have a password-protected account with us, we will use our existing authentication procedures to verify your identity. For most other requests, SocialBubb will ask you to provide information that matches at least two pieces of Personal Data we store about you before responding to your request.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Data if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Data relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use Personal Data provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

If you would like to opt-out of receiving promotional emails from SocialBubb, please follow the opt-out instructions at the bottom of the email or send SocialBubb a detailed email at support@socialbubb.com.

Under the GDPR, users in the EEA have the right to lodge a complaint about SocialBubb’s processing of your Personal Data with a supervisory authority. In particular, such users may lodge a complaint in the Member State where the user lives or works or where the alleged violation took place.

SocialBubb does not knowingly collect any information from persons under 16 years of age, nor are the Services directed at or intended for persons under 16 years of age. If a person under 16 years of age uploads/posts information through the Services without authorization, and such information becomes publicly available, please contact us immediately at support@socialbubb.com. SocialBubb learns we have collected or received Personal Data from any person under 16 years of age, SocialBubb will delete such information immediately. Again, any removal of content by SocialBubb does not ensure or guarantee complete or comprehensive removal of the content in all places. The content may have been shared or reposted by other parties, or federal or state law may require maintenance of the content or information.

Some browsers have a ”do not track” feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. SocialBubb does not currently have the capability to process these kinds of technical requests. To learn about options you may have regarding tracking for targeted advertising purposes, please visit the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance’s website at youronlinechoices.eu. Options you select are browser- and device-specific, and there is no guarantee that these industry-provided tools will prevent all targeted advertising.

9. Data Security and Retention

To protect your Personal Data, the Services use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of your Personal Data and other information stored on our Services.

While SocialBubb takes the issue of protecting your Personal Data seriously, you should exercise discretion in what information you disclose and/or transmit through the Services. SocialBubb cannot guarantee that information sent online is fully secure. The transmitted information may be intercepted by others before it reaches SocialBubb. If you are concerned about sending information to SocialBubb online, please send the information by mail or call us to make other arrangements. SocialBubb is not responsible for the security of information transmitted online.

We will keep your Personal Data while you use the Services or we are providing services to you. Thereafter, we will keep your Personal Data for as long as is necessary:

to respond to any questions, complaints or claims made by you or on your behalf;
to keep records required by law; or
for preserving, resolving, defending or enforcing our legal/contractual rights.

We will not retain your Personal Data for longer than necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy.

We will delete your Personal Data as soon as the respective purpose of use is not applicable anymore and no legal obligation to retain such data exists. If you have any questions about the security or retention of your Personal Data, you can contact us at support@socialbubb.com.
