1. Who We Are.

SafeCharge operates a website located at www.theSafeCharge.com and numerous cell phone charging stations where cell phone charging services through the Kiosk may be administered.

There are several areas on the Website and/or within the Kiosk where you may be asked to enter both personal and non-personal information including, by way of example and without limitation, your name, address, phone number, credit card information, birthday, Facebook and/or Twitter usernames, and information regarding your cell phone and/or other mobile device. In addition, when you use the Kiosk SafeCharge automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser or mobile platform, including your IP address and location. SafeCharge also collects and uses additional information from users such as transaction location, purchase activity, idle time, and all clicks and/or swipes within the Kiosk (together with time and order). We DO NOT sell or share any personal information about you to or with any person or organization except (i) as authorized by you, (ii) as set forth in the relevant portion of the Website, Kiosk or within any agreement between us, (iii) in connection with providing various products or Services to you (either directly or through one or more third parties), (iv) as may be required by law or court order, or (vi) as otherwise set forth herein. In particular, and not in limitation of the foregoing, information you enter at the Website and/or Kiosk (i) will be shared with the merchants or third party service providers with which SafeCharge has entered into a business relationship in order to provide the Services, and (ii) may be shared with various third parties in connection with making available to you certain offers (which offers may be based on or related to your location at the time the offer is made available to you). In addition, SafeCharge may sell, disclose or otherwise use information gathered on the Website or within the Kiosk to third parties on an aggregated basis.

  • (a) Information we receive from you. To use certain of SafeCharge’s Services and/or to access the Kiosk, you’ll need to provide certain personal information which may include, without limitation, your name, address, birthday, phone number, credit card information, Facebook and/or Twitter user names, e-mail address, information regarding your cell phone or mobile device and other information.
  • (b) Technical information we collect. In order for SafeCharge to ensure that we are providing the best possible consumer experience on the Website and within the Kiosk, we collect and track certain user information. When you visit the Website, our Web server may send a cookie to your computer. This cookie would be intended to store a limited amount of information about your site visit. The cookie tracks aggregate information on how our site is being used, including session counts, navigation patterns, pages visited, etc. These cookies, however, do not store any personally identifiable information such as your name, email address or phone number as you browse the site. When you submit a question, we store your cookie identification in our system. This cookie allows our site to recognize you when you return. SafeCharge may also utilize Web Logs to track aggregate information about how our site and/or the Kiosk is being used. Web Logs track anonymous user information, including the number of visitors to the Website, operating systems, Internet Provider addresses (if publicly available), and browser type. Unlike cookies, Web Logs are maintained only on SafeCharge servers and do not store or place anything on the user’s computer. If you come to the SafeCharge Website from an online banner ad, an anonymous identification number may be passed to the Website. This information cannot be used to gather any personally identifiable information about you. It will only allow us to track the overall effectiveness of our online advertising, marketing and banner advertisement campaigns.
  • (c) Other Information we get from your use of the Services. We may collect information about the Services that you use and how you use them. This information includes:
    • Device information: We may collect device-specific information (such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone number).
    • Location information: When you use the Service or access the Kiosk, we may collect and process information about your actual location. We may also use various technologies to determine location, some of which may be made available through third party licensors.
  • (d) Information from surveys. You may have the option of completing an online survey at the Website or within the Kiosk from time to time. Participation in surveys is completely voluntary and it is your choice whether or not you wish to disclose your personal information to us in connection with any such survey.
  • (e) Information from the “Contact Us” section of the Website or Kiosk. You may contact SafeCharge through the “Contact Us” feature. Participation in this area is completely voluntary and it is your choice whether or not you wish to disclose your personal information to us.
  • (f) Information collected other sections of the Website or Kiosk. SafeCharge may, from time to time, make various resources available to you at the Website or within the Kiosk. At times we may collect personal information in connection with providing such services.

3. How Your Information Is Used.

We use the information you provide to provide the applicable Services to you, either directly or through third party service providers, as further described above in this Privacy Policy. SafeCharge may also share certain aggregated data with other third parties for general research, marketing and demographic purposes; however, this data, when shared on an aggregated basis, does not include any of your personal identifying information. Some of our Services may be offered in conjunction with partner companies, affiliates or other companies or websites with which we work. In order for us to provide these Services to you, it may be necessary for us to share your personal information with one of such entities. These parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these Services. If you do not want your data to be shared, you can choose not to allow the transfer by not using that particular Service.

In addition to the uses of the information described above, SafeCharge may, from time to time, collect purchasing information and/or data from other sources. SafeCharge may collect this information for purposes of performing analytics and conducting consumer research. This information may be used to communicate and provide additional information that may be of interest to you and our merchants.

In addition, SafeCharge may disclose account or other personal information when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with SafeCharge’s rights or property, other Website or Kiosk users or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities.

4. Altering Information You Submit.

  • (a) Deleting your information. Federal and state regulations may require that we store questions or submissions for various periods of time. In order to comply with these regulations, we may be unable to delete information from our databases.
  • (b) Altering Information. SafeCharge may alter, modify or delete any information you submit to the Website or through the Kiosk if it believes, in its sole discretion, it is necessary or desirable to do so.
  • (c) Request to stop receiving emails from us. Periodically, SafeCharge may send you emails to alert you to various opportunities or offers available at the Website or within the Kiosk. If you do not wish to receive any of these offers, please send an e-mail to info@theSafeCharge.com to remove yourself from our mailing list.

Security

SafeCharge uses extensive and sophisticated secure technology to protect your data and transmissions between you and SafeCharge. Transmission between the browsers and our web server is implemented using either Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology or SafeCharge’s proprietary Kiosk that utilizes SSL-encrypted communication. This technology requires an SSL-capable browser. Although SafeCharge has taken these reasonable and appropriate measures to ensure that your personal information is delivered and disclosed only in accordance with your instructions, SafeCharge cannot and does not guarantee that the personal information you provide will not be intercepted by others and decrypted.

Changes to Privacy Policy

If we make a change to our Privacy Policy in the future that will affect how we treat your information, we will post such change at the Website and/or within the Kiosk, and such change will be deemed to be effective 2 days from the date of such posting. In that case, your ability to opt out of the new policy will be determined by applicable laws.

Business Transfer

We may, in the future, sell or otherwise transfer some or all of our assets or equity to a third party. Your personally identifiable information and other information we obtain from you via the Website or the Kiosk may be disclosed to any potential or actual third party purchasers of such assets or equity and may be among the assets transferred.

By using the Website or the Kiosk and voluntarily providing information to us, you consent to our collection and use of the information as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

The Website and/or Kiosk may contain links to other websites or Kiosks that are owned and operated by third parties that are not affiliated with us. When you use those links, you leave the Website or Kiosk (as applicable) and we are unable to control how the owners of the websites or Kiosks you link to handle any information they gather about you, including their privacy practices and use of cookies. This Privacy Policy applies only to the Website and Kiosk and does not govern activities on linked websites or Kiosks. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any other website or Kiosk you visit, download or access to understand its owner’s practices on how it collects, uses and discloses your information.
