Last Updated: [Insert Date]
1. Introduction
Please read this document carefully. This is the ZapScope Privacy Policy (the "Privacy Policy") and it
explains how Personal Information is collected, used, and disclosed by ZapScope with respect to your
access and use of this website (located at www.zapscope.com) (the "Site") and our Services.
ZapScope, a technology solutions provider ("ZapScope," "we," "our," or "us"), reserves the right to
update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. We will periodically revise this Privacy Policy to
reflect changes in our practices. If we make material changes regarding how we collect, use, or share
your Personal Information, we will notify users ("you") by sending an email to the email address most
recently provided in your account, profile, or registration (if available), and/or by posting a notice on
the Site.
Your continued use of the Site and any of the information, products, or services
(collectively, the "Services") provided by ZapScope will be subject to the most recent version of this
Privacy Policy posted on the Site at the time of your use. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy
periodically to stay informed about any updates or changes.
2. What Is Personal Information?
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, we define "Personal Information" as your first and last name, your email address, your home or other physical address, including a street name and the name of a city or town, your telephone number, any payment or financial information, or any other identifier that permits ZapScope to contact a natural person like you, and/or any information that ZapScope maintains that could be used to identify you in combination with any of the identifying information described above. Personal Information does not include "aggregate" information, which is data we collect about the use of the Site and the Services. Our Privacy Policy does not restrict or limit our collection and use of aggregate information.
3. What Personal Information Do We Collect?
We collect certain information you voluntarily provide to us including, without limitation,
the information you enter when you create an account and profile, send us an email, purchase our
products or services, request user support or submit or post any other content to the Site or use
the Services.
We automatically collect certain information when you use the Site and the Services including,
without limitation, your Internet Protocol (IP) address, your operating system, the browser type,
the address of a referring site and your activity on the Site. We may also collect information from
mobile phone users in a similar manner to optimize the mobile experience.
Beyond mobile phone numbers, we may collect mobile screen resolution, device make and manufacturer,
as well as the device’s unique identifier (in the iPhone’s case, a UDID), and, with your permission,
your location. We treat this information as Personal Information if we combine it with or link it
to any of the identifying information mentioned above. Otherwise, it is used in the aggregate only.
We may also receive Personal Information from third parties about their users, and may combine this information with other Personal Information we maintain about you. If we do so, this Privacy Policy will govern the combined information.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We may use standard Internet technology, such as web beacons and other similar technologies, to track
your use of the Site and the Services. We also may include web beacons in promotional email messages or
newsletters to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon. The information we obtain in
this manner enables us to customize the services we offer visitors to our Site to deliver targeted
advertisements and to measure the overall effectiveness of our online advertising, content, programming
or other activities.

8. How We Share Your Information
We want you to understand when and with whom we may share personal or other information we have collected about you or your activities on the Site or while using the Services.
Personal Information. We do not share your Personal Information with others except as indicated below or as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy. We may share Personal Information with:
Our Service Providers. We may share your Personal Information with our service providers that perform certain services on our behalf. These services may include fulfilling orders, processing credit card payments, providing customer service and marketing assistance, performing business analysis, supporting the functionality of the Site and the Services, and supporting surveys and other features offered through the Site. These service providers may have access to Personal Information needed to perform their functions but are not permitted to share or use such information for any other purposes.
Other Situations. We also may disclose your information:
- In response to a subpoena or similar investigative demand, a court order, or a request for cooperation from a law enforcement or other government agency; to establish or exercise our legal rights; to defend against legal claims; or as otherwise required by law. In such cases, we may raise or waive any legal objection or right available to us, in our sole discretion.
- When we believe disclosure is appropriate in connection with efforts to investigate, prevent, report or take other action regarding illegal activity, suspected fraud or other wrongdoing; to protect and defend the rights, property or safety of our company, our users, our employees, or others; to comply with applicable law or cooperate with law enforcement; or to enforce our website terms and conditions or other agreements or policies.
- In connection with a substantial corporate transaction, such as the sale of our business, a divestiture, merger, consolidation, or asset sale, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy.
- As you may otherwise request or agree.
Aggregated and Non-Personal Information. We may share aggregated and non-Personal Information we collect under any of the above circumstances. We may also share it with third parties to develop and deliver targeted advertising on the Site, through the Services and on websites of third parties. We may combine non-Personal Information we collect with additional non-Personal Information collected from other sources. We also may share aggregated information with third parties, including advisors, advertisers and investors, for the purpose of conducting general business analysis. For example, we may tell our advertisers the number of visitors to our website and the most popular features or services accessed. This information does not contain any Personal Information and may be used to develop website content and services that we hope you and other users will find of interest and to target content and advertising.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your Personal Information in an effort to prevent loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please be aware, however, that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.
If we become aware of a security systems breach, we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. ZapScope may post a notice through the Services if a security breach occurs. If this happens, you will need a web browser enabling you to access the Services. We may also send an email to you at the email address you have provided in such circumstances. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive notice of a security breach in writing.
Users should also be aware of how they handle and disclose their Personal Information and should avoid sending Personal Information through insecure email. Please refer to the Federal Trade Commission’s website for information about how to protect yourself against identity theft.
10. Your Rights and Choices
You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but that may result in you being unable to use certain features of the Site and the Services because such information may be required in order for you to register as a member; purchase products or services; participate in a survey; ask a question; or initiate other transactions on the Site or through the Services.
When you register on the Site, you may be given a choice as to whether you want to receive email messages and/or newsletters about product updates, improvements, special offers, or exclusive content distributions from us. At any time, you can choose to stop receiving commercial or promotional emails or newsletters from us by using the email address associated with your account to send an email to privacy@zapscope.com with the word "Unsubscribe" in the subject line. Alternatively, you may opt out by following the instructions provided in any promotional commercial email we send.
It may take up to 10 days for us to process an opt-out request. However, we may still send you other types of transactional and relationship email communications, such as service announcements, administrative notices, and surveys, without offering you the opportunity to opt out of receiving them.
Please note that changing your account information or opting out of promotional email communications will only affect future activities or communications from us. If we have already provided your information to a third party (such as a credit card processing partner) before you updated your preferences, you may need to change your preferences directly with that third party.
You may also tell us not to share your Personal Information with third parties for direct marketing purposes by using the email address associated with your account to send an email to privacy@zapscope.com with the words "Remove from direct marketing" in the subject line.
“Do Not Track”: Some web browsers may transmit “Do-Not-Track” signals to websites with which the browser communicates. Section 22575 of the California Business & Professions Code requires website and online service operators to disclose whether they honor web browser “Do-Not-Track” signals. Since there is no accepted standard for responding to these signals, we do not currently respond to them.
Other parties may collect Personal Information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you visit the Site, for example by using cookies on our Site. We have no access to or control over these third-party data collection practices, even for those with whom ZapScope may have an affiliation. We encourage you to carefully review the privacy policy and terms of any website you visit. For more information about Do Not Track, please visit www.allaboutdnt.org.
