Imperium Apps GmbH (“Imperium Apps,” “we” or “us”) provides services based on an internet real-time communication/sharing multi-media contents which also allows you (“users” or “you”) to experience, upload, share, showcase and engage with AR or Augmented Reality content on the Particular Augmented Reality app (“Particular”). This Particular Augmented Reality app Privacy Policy (Consumer version) (the “Policy”) describes Imperium Apps’ information practices and the choices available to you regarding Imperium Apps’ use of Personal Information (as defined below).

How do you protect my personal information?

We’re strongly committed to keeping you and your family’s information safe. And to do this we design our services with your safety in mind. We also have people to look after your information security and privacy. At the same time, no service can be completely secure – if you have any concerns that your Particular Augmented Reality account or personal information has been put at risk, for example if someone could have found out your password, please get in touch straight away. Where we store your information: Some companies that provide services to us run their services from outside the European Economic Area. We only let that happen if we are satisfied with their levels of security. Keep in mind that when you give us personal information it could be being transferred, stored or processed in a location outside the EEA.

What types of personal information does Particular Augmented Reality collect about me?

We’ll give details about why we need your personal information and how we’ll use it before you begin, unless it’s obvious.

a. Information that you give us

We might ask for your name and contact details, depending on what you’re doing. This could include information in a creation you share with us such as people’s names that appear in the creation.

b. Device information

Devices are lots of things like:

your computer
your mobile
your TV
your tablet
your voice-enabled device

We automatically collect some technical information from these devices and web browsers even when you’re not signed in to a Particular Augmented Reality account.

This might include:

IP (internet protocol) address
device ID
app ID
vendor ID

c. Information on your activities outside the Particular Augmented Reality when you talk about us

Like if you’ve mentioned us in a Twitter post, we’ll collect your Twitter handle. What if I have a Particular Augmented Reality account? When you register for a Particular Augmented Reality account, or update your details or settings we ask for some personal information, like your email address and age. We also collect information about how you use our services, like the articles you read and the spaces you watch.

How long will Particular Augmented Reality keep my personal information?

When you give us any personal information we’ll let you know how long we’ll hold it for. And always stick to these principles:

we only hold your information for as long as we do the activities we told you about or have a valid reason to keep it
we think about what type of information it is, the amount collected, how sensitive it might be and any legal requirements
we design our services so that we don’t hold your information any longer than we have to
we may close your Particular Augmented Reality account if you haven’t used it in the last year. We’ll send you an email to tell you that we plan to do this before we delete anything, so please check to see if we’ve sent you any emails about this

How can Particular Augmented Reality use my personal information?

We have to have a valid reason to use your personal information. It’s called the “lawful basis for processing”. Sometimes we might ask your permission to do things, like when you subscribe to an email. Other times, when you’d reasonably expect us to use your personal information, we don’t ask your permission, but only when:

the law says it’s fine to use it, and
it fits with the rights you have

We use your information for these types of things:

to deliver our services and to provide you with information about them
to deal with your requests, complaints and enquiries
to check if you’re using Particular Augmented Reality and to keep the licensing database accurate and up to date
to help us understand what kind of services you might use and sometimes how you might share things with other people
to recommend things we think might interest you
to show you advertising when you access a Particular Augmented Reality space. Some of this advertising might be tailored to you.
to research and innovate. You’re not a guinea-pig here, but knowing how you use our services could lead to the next big technology breakthrough.
to contact you about various things

When will Particular Augmented Reality use my information to contact me?

We might use your information to contact you about different things, like:

to update you on any changes to the Particular Augmented Reality’s policies, practices and Terms of Use

Will I be contacted for marketing purposes?

We’ll only send you marketing emails or contact you about Particular Augmented Reality services and your views on issues about Particular Augmented Reality if you’ve agreed to this. Keep in mind, even if you unsubscribe, we may still contact you. Will my personal information be used when the Particular Augmented Reality advertises with other companies? If you have a Particular Augmented Reality account we might use information that we hold about you to show you relevant and “targeted advertising” through other companies’ sites, like Facebook, Google, Snapchat or Twitter for example. This could be showing you a Particular Augmented Reality advertising message where we know you have a Particular Augmented Reality account and have used Particular Augmented Reality services. If you don’t want to see our targeted advertising, you can set ad preferences in your social media companies’ settings.

When does Particular Augmented Reality share my personal information with others?

We’ll never sell your personal information.

We do share it with others in these ways:

a. When you make something public

Like post a comment which the public can see.

b. When we use other companies to power our services

In order for us to give you quality experiences and to understand how you’re using our services we often use other companies to process your personal information on our behalf. For example, sending you emails about things we think might interest you, or to ask you what you think about our services. We make sure that your personal information is looked after as if we were handling it directly. We carefully select these companies, only share with them what they need to do the work and we make sure they keep your information secure.

c. When we do collaborative research

We do research activities and sometimes collaborate with research partners. Every now and then we share our content and data with them. This might include information we’ve collected about you. But we’re careful about what we share and what our research partners can do with it.

d. Sometimes by law we have to pass on your information to other organisations We might also share your information if we have to by law, or when we need to protect you or other people from harm.

Can I delete my information?

This depends on what information you’re talking about.

a. If you’re talking about Particular Augmented Reality account

You can delete your account. Your account information is immediately deleted. Keep in mind:

we keep a record of how you’ve used our services, but this information can’t be linked back to you
we also keep anything you’ve uploaded or commented on

b. What about other information I’ve shared with you?

We might have collected other personal information that you might ask to be deleted that has nothing to do with Particular Augmented Reality account.

What are my rights?

Remember, you’re in control of your personal information.

You have the right to:

request a copy of your information
not let robots make big decisions about you
to ask us to correct information that’s wrong, to delete it or to request that we only use it for certain purposes
to change your mind, and ask us to stop using your information. For example, unsubscribing from any marketing emails or turning off personalisation. Bear in mind, sometimes we might not be able to help. Like if the law tells us we can’t.

How does Particular Augmented Reality use cookies and similar tracking?

a. What are cookies and tracking technologies? Cookies are bits of data which are stored in your computer or mobile when you visit a website or app. There are also similar pieces of tracking information we collect.

b. Why do we use cookies and other tracking? To do a few different things:

to remember information about you, so you don’t have to give it to us again. And again. And again
to keep you signed in, even on different devices
to help us understand how people are using our services, so we can make them better
to deliver advertising to websites
to help us personalise Particular Augmented Reality to you by remembering your preferences and settings. And your progress, so you can pause and pick up where you left off watching a space, even on a different device.
to find out if our emails have been read and if you find them useful

A few things on our websites wouldn’t work without some cookies. Tech people call these “strictly necessary cookies”. They’re always on when you visit us. But we want to use others like functional, performance and advertising cookies to make your experience more enjoyable. We’ll only use them if you’ve agreed. You can always change your mind. Bear in mind there are some other cookies out there from other companies. These “third-party cookies” might track how you use different websites, including ours. For example, you might get a social media company’s cookie when you see the option to share something. You can turn them off, but not through us.

c. How long do cookies last?

Some are erased when you close the browser on your website or app. Others stay longer, sometimes forever, and are saved onto your device so that they’re there when you come back.

d. How do I control my cookies and tracking?

When you first visit us, we’ll tell you about our cookies and ask you to agree if we can use them. You can always change your mind by going to your settings. Stopping all cookies might mean you can’t access some Particular Augmented Reality services, or that some of them might not work properly for you. Another way to control some tracking is in the settings on your device.

What about children privacy?

We do not intentionally gather Personal Data from visitors who are under the age of 13. If a child under 13 submits Personal Data to Particular and We learn that the Personal Data is the information of a child under 13, We will attempt to delete the information as soon as possible. If You believe that We might have any Personal Data from a child under 13, please contact Us at info@imperiumapps.com.

How will I find out about changes to this policy?

We update this policy sometimes. If we make important changes, like how we use your personal information, we’ll let you know. It might be a notice, an email or a message in your app. If you don’t agree to the changes, then you can always stop using our services, delete your account and stop giving us any more personal information. We’d be sorry to see you go.
