Privacy Policy

Terms of Service

10-1-23

PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR USE OF AND ACCESS TO OUR SERVICES (DEFINED BELOW) ARE SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS; IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE FOLLOWING, YOU MAY NOT USE OR ACCESS THE SERVICES IN ANY MANNER.

Welcome to wrytr.com (“Website”). Please read on to learn the rules and restrictions that govern your use of our Website(s), products, services, and the smartphone and tablet applications available via the Apple Inc. (“Apple”) App Store and the Google Play Store (“Application”) (together the “Services”). If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding these terms or the Services, please contact us at wrytr.com/contact

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a binding contract between you and us. You must agree to and accept all of the Terms, or you don’t have the right to use the Services. Your using the Services in any way means that you agree to all of these Terms, and these Terms will remain in effect while you use the Services. These Terms include the provisions in this document, as well as those in the privacy policy and other applicable policies laid out in the Policy Center.

Will these Terms or the Services ever change?

We are constantly trying to improve our Services, so these Terms may need to change along with the Services over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services. We reserve the right to change the Terms at any time, but if we do, we will bring it to your attention by placing a notice on the Website, by sending you an email, and/or by some other means.

If you don’t agree with the new Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the Terms is effective, that means you agree to all of the changes.

We may, from time to time, with or without prior notice, temporarily suspend the operation of any Service (in whole or in part) for repair or maintenance work or in order to update or upgrade any contents, features or functionality. Similarly, we reserve the right to remove any Content (as defined below) from the Services at any time, for any reason (including, but not limited to, if someone alleges you contributed that Content in violation of these Terms), in our sole discretion, and without notice.

Except for changes by us as described here, no other amendment or modification of these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both you and us.

What about my privacy?

Wrytr takes the privacy of its users very seriously.

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) requires that online service providers obtain parental consent before they knowingly collect personally identifiable information online from children who are under 13. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personally identifiable information from children under 16; if you are a child under 16, please do not attempt to register for the Services or send any personal information about yourself to us. If we learn we have collected personal information from a child under 16, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a child under 16 may have provided us personal information, please contact us at wrytr.com/contact/

What are the basics of using Wrytr?

Certain aspects of the Services allow you to sign up for an account, and select a password and user name. You promise to provide us with accurate, complete, and updated registration information about yourself. You may not select as your User ID a name that you don’t have the right to use, or another person’s name with the intent to impersonate that person. You may not transfer your account to anyone else without our prior written permission.

You represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract. If you’re agreeing to these Terms on behalf of an organization or entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to these Terms on that organization or entity’s behalf and bind them to these Terms (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” in these Terms, except for in this sentence, refer to that organization or entity).

You will only use the Services for your own internal or personal use, and only in a manner that complies with all laws that apply to you. If your use of the Services is prohibited by applicable laws, then you aren’t authorized to use the Services. We can’t and won’t be responsible for your using the Services in a way that breaks the law.

You must not share your account or password with anyone, and you must protect the security of your account and your password. You’re responsible for any activity associated with your account.

Your use of the Services is subject to the following additional restrictions:

You represent, warrant, and agree that you will not contribute any Content or User Submission (each of those terms is defined below) or otherwise use the Services or interact with the Services in a manner that:

infringes or violates the intellectual property rights or any other rights of anyone else (including Wrytr);
violates any law or regulation, including any applicable export control laws;
is harmful, fraudulent, deceptive, threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable;
jeopardizes the security of your account with Wrytr or anyone else’s (such as allowing someone else to log in to the Services as you);
attempts, in any manner, to obtain the password, account, or other security information from any other user;
violates the security of any computer network, or cracks any passwords or security encryption codes;
runs Maillist, Listserv, any form of auto-responder or “spam” on the Services, or any processes that run or are activated while you are not logged into the Services, or that otherwise interfere with the proper working of the Services (including by placing an unreasonable load on the Services’ infrastructure);
“crawls,” “scrapes,” or “spiders” any page, data, or portion of or relating to the Services or Content (through use of manual or automated means);
copies or stores any significant portion of the Content;
decompiles, reverse engineers, or otherwise attempts to obtain the source code or underlying ideas or information of or relating to the Services;
bypasses the measures we may use to prevent or restrict access to the Services or Content, including without limitation features that prevent or restrict use or copying of any Content or enforce limitations on use of the Services or the Content; or
monetizes the Content through advertising, subscriptions, or other means.

A violation of any of the foregoing is grounds for our termination of your right to use or access the Services.

What are my rights in Wrytr?

The materials displayed or performed or available on or through the Services, including User Submissions are protected by copyright and/or other intellectual property laws. You promise to abide by all copyright notices, trademark rules, information, and restrictions contained in any Content you access through the Services, and you won’t use, copy, reproduce, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, upload, display, license, sell, or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content not owned by you, (i) without the prior consent of the owner of that Content or (ii) in a way that violates someone else’s (including Wrytr’s) rights.

You acknowledge that Wrytr and its licensors own the Services. You must not modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, reproduce (except as expressly provided in this Section), create derivative works based on, post on other websites any copies of, or otherwise exploit any of the Services.

The Services may allow you to copy or download certain Content; please remember that just because this functionality exists, doesn’t mean that all the restrictions above don’t apply – they do!

Do I have to grant any licenses to Wrytr or to other users?

Anything you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Services is your “User Submission.” Some User Submissions are viewable or audible by other users. In order to display your User Submissions on the Services, and to allow other users to enjoy them (where applicable), you grant us certain rights in those User Submissions. Please note that all of the following licenses are subject to policies to the extent they relate to User Submissions that are also your personally-identifiable information.

You agree that the licenses you grant are royalty-free, perpetual, sublicenseable, irrevocable, and worldwide.

For all User Submissions, you hereby grant Wrytr a license to translate, modify (for technical purposes, for example making sure your content is viewable on an iPhone as well as a computer), reproduce, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, display, and otherwise act with respect to such User Submissions, in each case to enable us to operate the Services. This is a license only – your ownership in User Submissions is not affected.

If you store a User Submission in your own personal Wrytr account, in a manner that is not viewable by any other user except you (a “Personal User Submission”), you grant Wrytr the license above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Personal User Submission for the sole purpose of making that Personal User Submission accessible to you and providing the Services necessary to do so.

Finally, you acknowledge and agree that Wrytr, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Services to our users (including you), may need to make changes to your User Submissions to conform and adapt those User Submissions to the technical requirements of connection networks, devices, services, or media, and the foregoing licenses include the rights to do so.

What if I see something on the Services that infringes my copyright?

You may have heard of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”), as it relates to online service providers, like Wrytr, being asked to remove material that allegedly violates someone’s copyright. We respect others’ intellectual property rights, and we reserve the right to delete or disable Content alleged to be infringing, and to terminate the accounts of repeat alleged infringers. To review our complete Copyright Dispute Policy and learn how to report potentially infringing content, visit wrytr.com/contact/ and send in a report.

Who is responsible for what I see and do on the Services?

Any information or content publicly posted or privately transmitted through the Services is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such content originated, and you access all such information and content at your own risk; we aren’t liable for any errors or omissions in that information or content or for any damages or loss you might suffer in connection with it. We cannot control and have no duty to take any action regarding how you may interpret and use the Content or what actions you may take as a result of having been exposed to the Content, and you hereby release us from all liability for you having acquired or not acquired Content through the Services. We can’t guarantee the identity of any users with whom you interact in using the Services and are not responsible for which users gain access to the Services. If the Services provide professional information (for example, financial, legal, or medical), such information is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as professional advice. No action should be taken based upon any information contained in the Service. You should seek independent professional advice from a person who is licensed and/or qualified in the applicable area.

You are responsible for all Content you contribute, in any manner, to the Services, and you represent and warrant you have all rights necessary to do so, in the manner in which you contribute it. You will keep all your registration information accurate and current. You are responsible for all of your activity in connection with the Services.

The Services may contain links or connections to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Wrytr. When you access third-party websites or use third-party services, you accept that there are risks in doing so, and that Wrytr is not responsible for such risks. We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Services and to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each third-party website or service that you visit or utilize.

Wrytr has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, accuracy, privacy policies, or practices of or opinions expressed in any third-party websites or by any third party that you interact with through the Services. In addition, Wrytr will not and cannot monitor, verify, censor, or edit the content of any third-party site or service. By using the Services, you release and hold us harmless from any and all liability arising from your use of any third-party website or service.

Your interactions with organizations and/or individuals found on or through the Services, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties, or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such organizations and/or individuals. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline transaction with any of these third parties. You agree that Wrytr shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings.

If there is a dispute between participants on this site, or between users and any third party, you agree that Wrytr is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you release Wrytr, its officers, employees, agents, and successors from claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and/or our Services. If you are a California resident, you shall and hereby do waive all rights under California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

Does Wrytr cost anything?

Certain parts of the Services are currently free. If that changes, we’ll update this policy accordingly.

What if I want to stop using Wrytr?

You’re free to do that at any time. To cancel your account, you may delete it within the app, or contact us at wrytr.com/contact/. Please refer to licenses above, to understand how we treat information you provide to us after you have stopped using our Services.

Wrytr is also free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of the Services or your account, for any reason in our discretion, including if:

you have breached any of these Terms;
you fail to pay any correctly billed charges when due; or
you become insolvent or make composition with your creditors or petition for your own bankruptcy or have a bankruptcy petition presented against you, or are subject to any event or proceedings which are equivalent or substantially similar under any applicable jurisdiction.

Wrytr has the sole right to decide whether you are in violation of any of the restrictions set forth in these Terms. If you have breached these Terms, we may take such action as we deem appropriate. Such a breach by you may result in our taking, with or without notice, all or any of the following actions:

issue a warning to you;
remove, block, or disable access to User Submissions;
immediately withdraw your right to use any of the Services (either temporarily or permanently);
institute legal proceedings against you for reimbursement of all recoverable loss and damage resulting from the breach and/or for an injuction; and/or
disclose of all relevant information to law enforcement authorities as we reasonably feel is necessary.

The responses described above are not limited, and we may take any other action we deem appropriate.

Account termination may also result in destruction of any Content and User Submissions associated with your account, so keep that in mind before you decide to terminate your account.

Upon termination of any Subscription or Service or your account, for any reason (including where, in accordance with these Terms, you cancel or do not renew your Subscription):

all rights granted to you under these Terms will immediately cease;
you must promptly discontinue all use of the relevant Services; and
you must pay us all outstanding amounts that you owe us.

Any of these terms that, by their nature, should survive termination of the agreement between you and us shall survive termination. By way of example, all of the following will survive termination: any obligation you have to pay us or or indemnify us, any limitations on our liability, any terms regarding ownership or intellectual property rights, and terms regarding disputes between us.

I use Wrytr App available via the Apple App Store or Google Play – should I know anything about that?

You acknowledge and agree that the availability of our mobile application is dependent on the third-party stores from which you download the application, e.g., the App Store from Apple or the Android app market from Google (each an “App Store”). Each App Store may have its own terms and conditions to which you must agree before downloading mobile applications from such store, including the specific terms relating to the Apple App Store set forth below. You agree to comply with, and your license to use our application is conditioned upon your compliance with, such App Store terms and conditions. To the extent such other terms and conditions from such App Store are less restrictive than, or otherwise conflict with, the terms and conditions of these Terms of Service, the more restrictive or conflicting terms and conditions in these Terms of Service apply.

Through our mobile applications, you may purchase (“In-App Purchase”) certain goods or features designed to enhance the performance of the Services. When you make an In-App Purchase, you are doing so through either the Apple iTunes service or the Google Play service and you are agreeing to their respective Terms and Conditions, available at http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/us/terms.html and http://play.google.com/intl/en_us/about/play-terms.html.

These Terms apply to your use of all the Services, including the Application, but the following additional terms also apply to the Application:

Apple

If the Application that you download, access, and/or use is downloaded from the Apple App Store:

Both you and Wrytr acknowledge that the Terms are concluded between you and Wrytr only, and not with Apple, and that Apple is not responsible for the Application or the Content;
The Application is licensed to you on a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferrable, non-sublicensable basis, solely to be used in connection with the Services for your private, personal, non-commercial use, subject to all the terms and conditions of these Terms as they are applicable to the Services;
You will only use the Application in connection with an Apple device that you own or control;
You acknowledge and agree that Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Application;
In the event of any failure of the Application to conform to any applicable warranty, including those implied by law, you may notify Apple of such failure; upon notification, Apple’s sole warranty obligation to you will be to refund to you the purchase price, if any, of the Application;
You acknowledge and agree that Wrytr, and not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims you or any third party may have in relation to the Application;
You acknowledge and agree that, in the event of any third-party claim that the Application or your possession and use of the Application infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, Wrytr, and not Apple, will be responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such infringement claim;
You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties;
Both you and Wrytr acknowledge and agree that, in your use of the Application, you will comply with any applicable third-party terms of agreement which may affect or be affected by such use; and
Both you and Wrytr acknowledge and agree that Apple and Apple’s subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as the third-party beneficiary hereof.

Google

If the Application that you download, access and/or use is downloaded from Google Play:

You are allowed unlimited reinstalls of the Application without any additional fee, provided that if the Application is removed from Google Pay due to (a) an allegation of infringement, or actual infringement, of any third-party Intellectual Property Right; (b) an allegation of, or actual violation of, third-party rights; or (c) an allegation or determination that such Product does not comply with applicable law, then the Application will be removed from all portions of Google Play and you will no longer have a right or ability to reinstall the Application.
You may also be able to claim a refund from Google for purchases made in the Application if you qualify under the Google Play refund policy.
Google grants to the User a nonexclusive, worldwide, and perpetual license to perform, display, and use the Application. The “User” means you and may also include, but is not limited to, a family group and family members whose accounts are joined together for the purpose of creating a family group. Family groups on Google Play will be subject to reasonable limits designed to prevent abuse of family sharing features.

What else do I need to know?

Warranty Disclaimer. Neither Wrytr nor its licensors or suppliers makes any representations or warranties concerning any content contained in or accessed through the Services, and we will not be responsible or liable for the accuracy, copyright compliance, legality, or decency of material contained in or accessed through the Services. We (and our licensors and suppliers) make no representations or warranties regarding suggestions or recommendations of services or products offered or purchased through the Services. We cannot and do not guarantee that any content of the Services will be free from viruses and/or other code that may have contaminating or destructive elements. It is your responsibility to implement appropriate IT security safeguards (including anti-virus and other security checks) to satisfy your particular requirements as to the safety and reliability of Content. THE SERVICES AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED BY WRYTR (AND ITS LICENSORS AND SUPPLIERS) ON AN “AS-IS” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR THAT USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

Limitation of Liability. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) SHALL WRYTR (OR ITS LICENSORS OR SUPPLIERS) BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON FOR (A) ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, ACCURACY OF RESULTS, OR COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR (B) ANY AMOUNT, IN THE AGGREGATE, IN EXCESS OF THE GREATER OF (I) $100 OR (II) THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO WRYTR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THIS APPLICABLE CLAIM, OR (C) ANY MATTER BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

Indemnity. To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold Wrytr, its affiliates, officers, agents, employees, and partners harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages (actual and consequential), losses, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or in any way related to any third-party claims relating to (a) your use of the Services (including any actions taken by a third party using your account), and (b) your violation of these Terms. In the event of such a claim, suit, or action (“Claim”), we will attempt to provide notice of the Claim to the contact information we have for your account (provided that failure to deliver such notice shall not eliminate or reduce your indemnification obligations hereunder).

Assignment. You may not assign, delegate, or transfer these Terms or your rights or obligations hereunder, or your Services account, in any way (by operation of law or otherwise) without Wrytr’s prior written consent. We may transfer, assign, or delegate these Terms and our rights and obligations without consent.

Choice of Law. These Terms are governed by and will be construed under the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the state of Nevada, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

Privacy Policy

We at Wrytr (“Wrytr,” “we,” and “us”) know you care about how your Personal Data (defined below) is used and shared, and we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle your data when you use Wrytr’s “Services,” listed below:

Our Website (wrytr.com)
Our app

By using or accessing the Services in any manner, you acknowledge that you understand and you hereby consent to the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Policy, including that we will collect, use, and share your information in the following ways.

If you are a resident of the European Union (“EU”), Lichtenstein, Norway, or Iceland (together, the “EEA”) or a resident of the United Kingdom (“UK”), you may have additional rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation, or the UK General Data Protection Regulation (together, the “GDPR”) with respect to your Personal Data, as outlined herein. To see our Privacy Policy for UK residents, please click here. If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or whether any of the following applies to you, please contact us at privacy@wrytr.com.

Remember that your use of Wrytr’s Services is at all times subject to the Terms of Service. Any terms we use in this Policy without defining them have the definitions given to them in the Terms of Service.

What Does This Privacy Policy Cover?

This Privacy Policy covers how we treat Personal Data that we gather when you access or use our Services. “Personal Data” means any information that identifies or relates to a particular individual and also includes information referred to as “personally identifiable information” or “personal information” under applicable data privacy laws, rules, or regulations. This Privacy Policy does not cover the practices of companies we don’t own or control or people we don’t manage. For this Privacy Policy, we use the term “processing” as it is defined in the California Consumer Protection Act (“CCPA”), which generally covers actions that can be performed in connection with data such as collection, use, storage, and disclosure.

We gather various types of Personal Data from our users, as explained in more detail below, and we use this Personal Data internally in connection with our Services, including to personalize, provide, and improve our Services, to allow you to set up a user account and profile, to contact you and allow other users to contact you, to fulfill your requests for certain products and services, and to analyze how you use the Services. In certain cases, we may also share some Personal Data with third parties, but only as described below.

Are There Guidelines For Children?

Our Services are not intended for children under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly collect or solicit Personal Data from anyone under the age of 13. If you are under 13, please do not attempt to register for the Services or send any Personal Data about yourself to us. If we obtain actual knowledge that we have collected Personal Data from a child under age 13, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. We do not “sell,” as that term is defined under the CCPA, the personal information of minors under 13 years old who are California residents. If you believe that a child under 16 may have provided us Personal Data, please contact us wrytr.com/contact/

Will Wrytr Ever Change This Privacy Policy?

We’re constantly trying to improve our Services, so we may need to change this Privacy Policy from time to time as well, but we will alert you to significant changes by placing a notice on wrytr.com or our app, by sending you an email, and/or by some other means. Please note that if you’ve opted not to receive direct marketing from us, you may still receive necessary service updates. If you haven’t provided us with your email address, those legal notices will still govern your use of the Services, and you are still responsible for reading and understanding them. Please check back regularly for any updates to this Privacy Policy. If you use the Services after any changes to the Privacy Policy have been posted, that means you agree to all of the changes.

What Information Does Wrytr Gather About You?

The following describes the information we collect and how we obtain it.

A) Information Collected Through the Services.
Information You Voluntarily Give Us

For Registration:

When you sign up for a Service (e.g., a subscription), we collect your contact information and account credentials. Once you’re registered, we assign you a unique ID number. This ID number helps us recognize you when you’re signed in.

For some Services, you can instead sign up by linking your Google, Apple, or Facebook accounts. See “From Other Sources” below.

For User-Generated Content:

We offer you the ability to post content that other users can read (e.g., comments). Anyone can read, collect and use any personal information that accompanies your posts.

We do not have to publish any of your content. If the law requires us to take down, remove or edit your personal information, we will comply to the required extent..

Information Collected Automatically

With Tracking Technologies in Your Browser and Mobile Apps:

These technologies include cookies, web beacons, tags and scripts, software development kits (or SDKs), and beyond.

Whenever you interact with our Services, we automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser or device, which include the following:

IP address
Cookies and other tracking technologies (e.g. web beacons, pixel tags, SDKs, etc.)
Device identifiers
Web browser information
Browser language
Operating system information
Page view statistics
The URLs of any pages you visit on our sites and apps
Advertising identifiers
Search information
Location information
Other usage information.

“Cookies” are identifiers we transfer to your browser or device that allow us to recognize your browser or device and tell us how and when pages and features in our Services are visited and by how many people. You may be able to change the preferences on your browser or device to prevent or limit your device’s acceptance of cookies, but this may prevent you from taking advantage of some of our features. For more information, please review our Cookie Policy.

We use third-party analytics services in order to better understand user engagement with the Services. When a user browses or uses the Services, these third-party analytics services may collect the user’s IP address, browser type, and approximate location (based on the IP address). They may also use web logs or web beacons and may set and access cookies on your computer or other device.

Third parties may also transmit cookies to you. Again, this Privacy Policy does not cover the use of cookies by any third parties, and we aren’t responsible for their privacy policies and practices. Please be aware that cookies placed by third parties may continue to track your activities online even after you have left our Services, and those third parties may not honor “Do Not Track” requests you have set using your browser or device.

When you use the Services, we may collect precise location data. For instance, if you allow the Services to access location services through the permission system used by your device’s mobile operating system or browser, we may collect the precise location of your device.

We may use the data described herein to customize content for you that we think you might like based on your usage patterns or for other similar purposes. We may also use it to improve the Services – for example, this data can tell us how often users use a particular feature of the Services, and we can use that knowledge to make the Services interesting to as many users as possible.

We combine this data with other information we collect about you. For more information about tracking methods on the Services, and how to manage them, read our Cookie Policy.

If your browser doesn’t accept our cookies, you can’t access certain parts of our website (e.g., your account settings). Because the “Do Not Track” browser-based standard signal has yet to gain widespread acceptance, we don’t currently respond to those signals.

B) Information Collected From Other Sources.
Social Media Platforms and Other Third-Party Services:

(Social media platforms include Facebook. Third-party services include Google and Apple.)

If you provide your social network account credentials to us or otherwise sign in to the Services through a third-party site or service, you understand some content and/or information in those accounts may be transmitted into your Account with us.

You can link your social media or other third-party account to a Service. By linking that account, you authorize us to collect, store, and use any information they may give us (e.g., your email address). You can disconnect your wrytr.com registration from third-party accounts at any time.

We also receive information from you when you interact with our pages, groups, accounts or posts on social media platforms. This includes aggregate data on our followers (e.g., age, gender and location), engagement data (e.g., “likes,” comments, shares, reposts and clicks), awareness data (e.g., number of impressions and reach) and individual users’ public profiles.

iii. Workplace and Schools:

When your employer or school buys an organization-wide subscription to Wrytr, they sometimes provide us with your name and organization email address to grant you access as a user.

How Does Wrytr Use Personal Data?

We process Personal Data to operate, improve, understand, and personalize our Services. For example, we use Personal Data:

A) To Provide Our Services

We use your information to help you use and navigate our services, such as:

To meet or fulfill the reason you provided the information to us.
To make our Services available to you.
To create and manage user profiles and content.

B) To Allow You to Share User-Generated Content

Any information you disclose in your content becomes public — along with your username.

C) To Carry Out Administrative Tasks

For auditing: We verify that our internal processes work as intended.

For fraud and security monitoring: We use your data to detect and prevent cyberattacks or unauthorized robot activities, protect against or deter fraudulent, illegal, or harmful actions, and maintain the safety, security, and integrity of our Services

For customer satisfaction: We provide customer support and assistance for the Services, respond to user inquiries and fulfill user requests, and assess users’ satisfaction.

Additional Notes:

For more about targeted advertising, and how to opt out with your specific browser and device, go to the DAA Webchoices Browser Check and NAI Opt Out of Interest-Based Advertising. You can download the AppChoices app to opt out in mobile apps. You can also follow the instructions in the What Are Your Rights? section below.
We try to limit how our third-party advertising technology vendors use the information they gather from you. Many of these providers require us to enter into contracts that allow them to optimize their own services and products, or that help them create their own.
Essentially, these providers combine any information they gather about you through the Services with information they receive from their other clients. This helps them target ads to you on behalf of their other clients, not just us.
These third parties sometimes use other services in order to serve ads; check their privacy policies for more details. For further information on tracking technologies and your rights and choices regarding them, see our Cookie Policy. California residents have the right to instruct us not to “sell” their personal information. More information is available below.

D) For Legal and Regulatory Purposes

We may use your personal data to comply with legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations and respond to law enforcement requests and as required by applicable law, court order, or governmental regulations.

E) Other

We may also use your information for any other business purpose stated when collecting your Personal Data or as otherwise set forth in applicable data privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act.

The above activities can involve outside companies, agents or contractors (“Service Providers”) with whom we share your personal information for these purposes (discussed further below).

With Whom Do We Share The Information We Gather?

Disclosures of Personal Data for a Business Purpose

We may disclose your Personal Data to service providers and other parties for the following business purposes:

Detecting security incidents, protecting against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, and prosecuting those responsible for that activity.
Debugging to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
Short-term, transient use of Personal Data that is not used by another party to build a consumer profile or otherwise alter your consumer experience outside the current interaction.
Performing services on our behalf, including maintaining or servicing accounts, providing analytic services, or providing similar services on behalf of the business or service provider.
Undertaking internal research for technological development and demonstration.
Undertaking activities to verify or maintain the quality or safety of a service or device that we own, manufacture, was manufactured for us, or control.

We disclose your Personal Data to the following categories of service providers and other parties:

Service providers, including:
- Hosting and other technology and communications providers.
Social media services (if you intentionally interact with them through your use of the Services).

We can preserve or share personal information if the law requires us to do so. We can also preserve or share personal information if we believe it would be necessary to:

Comply with law or legal process
Protect and defend our rights and property
Protect against misuse or unauthorized use of the Services
Protect the safety or property of our users or the general public
Cooperate with government authorities, which could be outside your country of residence

We may disclose public activities in our RSS feeds, APIs, and other distribution formats. Your public activities could thus appear on other websites, blogs, or feeds.

Non-Personal or Aggregate Information: We may de-identify your Personal Data so that you are not identified as an individual, and provide that information to our partners. We may also provide aggregate usage information to our partners (or allow partners to collect that information from you), who may use such information to understand how often and in what ways people use our Services, so that they, too, can provide you with an optimal online experience. However, we never disclose aggregate usage or de-identified information to a partner (or allow a partner to collect such information) in a manner that would identify you as an individual person.

Is Personal Data About Me Secure?

Your account is protected by a password for your privacy and security. If you access your account via a third-party site or service, you may have additional or different sign-on protections via that third-party site or service. You must prevent unauthorized access to your account and Personal Data by selecting and protecting your password and/or other sign-on mechanism appropriately and limiting access to your computer or device and browser by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.

We seek to protect Personal Data using appropriate technical and organizational measures based on the type of Personal Data and applicable processing activity. Our information is stored on secure servers in the United States. Our security measures vary based on the sensitivity of the Personal Data we collect, process, and store and the current state of technology. We also take measures to ensure subprocessors that process Personal Data on our behalf also have appropriate security controls in place.

We endeavor to reasonably protect the privacy of your account and other Personal Data we hold in our records, but unfortunately, we cannot guarantee complete security. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of user information at any time. We take various steps to protect your information, including, but not limited to, the following:

We implement technical measures to prevent unauthorized access, and keep security patches and software up-to-date
We restrict employee access to your information on a need-to-know basis

We protect your personal information with a series of organizational, technological, and physical safeguards — but we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We recommend that you use complex and unique passwords for your accounts and for third-party accounts linked to them. Do not share your password with anyone.

If you have reason to believe your interaction with us is no longer secure, notify us immediately.

How Is Information Transferred Internationally?

Wrytr is headquartered in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, your information is collected in your country and then transferred to the United States — or to another country in which we (or our affiliates or service providers) operate.

In certain situations, the courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies or security authorities in those countries might be entitled to access your personal information.

What Is Our Legal Basis?

We will only process your Personal Data if we have a lawful basis for doing so. Lawful bases for processing include consent, contractual necessity, and our “legitimate interests” or the legitimate interest of others, as further described below.

Contractual Necessity: We process the following categories of Personal Data as a matter of “contractual necessity,” meaning that we need to process the data to perform under our Terms of Service with you, which enables us to provide you with the Services. When we process data due to contractual necessity, failure to provide such Personal Data will result in your inability to use some or all portions of the Services that require such data.
- Personal identifiers.
- Customer records identified by state law.
- Commercial information.
Legitimate Interest: We process the following categories of Personal Data when we believe it furthers the legitimate interest of us or third parties.
- Internet or other similar network activity information.
- Geolocation data.
- Inferences drawn from other personal information.
  - Examples of these legitimate interests include:
  - Operation and improvement of our business, products and Services
  - Marketing of our products and Services
  - Provision of customer support
  - Protection from fraud or security threats
  - Compliance with legal obligations
  - Completion of corporate transactions
Consent: In some cases, we process Personal Data based on the consent you expressly grant to us at the time we collect such data. When we process Personal Data based on your consent, it will be expressly indicated to you at the point and time of collection.
Other Processing Grounds: From time to time we may also need to process Personal Data to comply with a legal obligation, if it is necessary to protect the vital interests of you or other data subjects, or if it is necessary for a task carried out in the public interest.

What About Third-Party Services?

Some of the Services contain links to third-party websites, resources, vendors, and advertisers. These third parties are not part of Wrytr’s Services. Additionally, our Services may be available to you through third-party digital properties such as Google or Apple. We do not control (and are not responsible for) third party content or privacy practices. These third parties may independently collect and solicit information about you and affect your data preferences when you access the Services on third-party digital properties (see “Additional Notes” below for more information). Any personal data you provide to them is not covered by this Privacy Policy. These third parties have their own policies and practices about data, which may include what information they share with us, your rights and choices on their services and devices, and whether they store information in the U.S. or elsewhere. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with their privacy policies and terms of use.

Additional Notes

As mentioned above, some of the Services are offered on third-party digital properties (such as third-party websites, frameworks, and domains) which can affect our data practices and your data preferences.
If you set your data preferences while using one of these third-party digital properties, your preferences will only be saved with respect to the Services on that specific third-party digital property. Your preferences will not carry over when you use the Services on our own digital properties.

How Long Do We Retain Your Personal Data?

We retain Personal Data about you for as long as you have an open account with us or as otherwise necessary to provide you with our Services. In some cases we retain Personal Data for longer, if doing so is necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes or collect fees owed, or is otherwise permitted or required by applicable law, rule, or regulation. We may further retain information in an anonymous or aggregated form where that information would not identify you personally.

What If You Have Questions About This Policy?

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this Privacy Policy, please send us a detailed message at privacy@wrytr.com and we will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) days.

Personal Data We Collect

The “Categories of Personal Data We Collect” section above details the Personal Data that we collect from you.

Deletion

You have the right to request that we delete the Personal Data that we have collected from you.

If your deletion request is subject to one of these exceptions, we may deny your deletion request.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise the rights described above, you must send us a request that (1) provides sufficient information to allow us to verify that you are the person about whom we have collected Personal Data, and (2) describes your request in sufficient detail to allow us to understand, evaluate, and respond to it. Each request that meets both of these criteria will be considered a “Valid Request.” We may not respond to requests that do not meet these criteria. We will only use Personal Data provided in a Valid Request to verify you and complete your request. You do not need an account to submit a Valid Request.

We will work to respond to your Valid Request within 45 days of receipt. We will not charge you a fee for making a Valid Request unless your Valid Request(s) is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that your Valid Request warrants a fee, we will notify you of the fee and explain that decision before completing your request.

You may submit a Valid Request by selecting “Make a Privacy Request” in the top right-hand corner of this page.

You have the right to opt-out of the sale (if any) of your Personal Data. To do so, click the Do Not Sell My Personal Information link in the footer of our website.

We Will Not Discriminate Against You for Exercising Your Rights Under the CCPA

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the CCPA. We will not deny you our goods or services, charge you different prices or rates, or provide you a lower quality of goods and services if you exercise your rights under the CCPA.
