What we collect
We collect information about you in several ways.
Information You Give Us
We may collect information you choose to provide to us, such as your name, email address, mobile phone number, your photo, your friends’ contact information as stored on your phone, and the content that you create, such as your texts, photos, and videos. If, as part of your use of the Service, you connect your Service account with an account from a supported social network account, such as Facebook (a “Social Media Account”), we may receive personal information from the corresponding social network that relates to your Social Media Account. Such personal information may be about you and/or your Social Media Account contacts. Please check the policies of the applicable social network in order to understand what information we receive. Even if you later disconnect your Service account from your Social Media Account, we still keep a copy of the personal information (such as your Social Media Account profile photo and your contact list) that we received from the connection of the two accounts, so that we may more easily connect you with your Social Media Account contacts who register with the Service in the future.
Information We Get from Others
We may get information about you from other sources, including from social networks you link to through the Service. We may add this to information we get from the Service.
