This Privacy Policy DOES NOT apply to the information that:

Our websites and other apps, and these other third parties may have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to read before providing information on or through them.

This Privacy Policy may change from time to time (see Changes to Our Privacy Policy Section). Your continued use of Lensa after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check this Privacy Policy periodically for updates.

You confirm that you have all required rights, approvals and consents from any third parties, if applicable, to use their photos and videos or photos or videos on which other individuals are shown through Lensa and to Post such photos and videos on third-party websites and other online services. This may be applicable if you: (i) Post, or use photos or videos (via Lensa), that are not your’s; or (ii) Post, or use photos or videos (via Lensa) of other individuals, that require such persons' and/or individuals' consent (for more information on the Lensa Terms of Use, please visit the following link).

Additionally, we cannot control the actions of third parties with whom you may choose to share your photos or videos. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that your photos or videos will not be viewed by unauthorized persons.

3. INFORMATION WE COLLECT THROUGH AUTOMATIC DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES

When you Use Lensa, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about your equipment, browsing actions and patterns, including:

We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking). If you do not want us to collect this information, do not download Lensa or delete it from your device.

The information we collect automatically under this Privacy Policy may include your Personal Data and information we may maintain or associate with your Personal Data that we collect in other ways or receive from third parties. It helps us to improve Lensa and to deliver a better and more personalized service, including but not limited to enabling us to estimate our audience size and Usage patterns and recognize when you Use Lensa.

If the information covered by this Section 3 is aggregated or de-identified, so it is no longer reasonably associated with an identified or identifiable natural person, we may use it for any business purpose.

The technologies we use for automatic data collection may include:

Third-party analytics. We use third-party analytics tools, such as Google Firebase, Facebook Analytics, AppsFlyer and Amplitude, to help us measure traffic and usage trends for Lensa. These tools collect information sent by your device or Lensa, including the web pages you visit when following the links available to you on Lensa. We collect and use this analytics information with analytics information from other Users so that it cannot reasonably be used to identify any particular individual User. For information on how third party analytics tools collect and process your data and to opt out of such collection and processing, generated by your Use of Lensa, please visit the following link.

Cookies (or mobile cookies) and similar technologies. A cookie is a small file placed on your smartphone. When you Use Lensa, we may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about how you Use Lensa and provide features to you. We may ask our Service Providers to serve services to your devices, which may include cookies or similar technologies placed by us or such Service Providers (on our request). You may refuse to accept mobile cookies by activating the appropriate mobile browser setting on your smartphone.

Device identifiers are small data files or similar data structures stored on or associated with your mobile device, which uniquely identify your mobile device. A device identifier may identify data stored in connection with the device hardware, operating system or other software, or data sent to the device by us. A device identifier may deliver information to us or to our Service Providers about how you Use Lensa and may help us and others (on our request) produce a report on such Use. Some features of Lensa may not function properly if use or availability of device identifiers is impaired or disabled. Among others we collect the following device identifiers:

Metadata. Metadata is a technical data that is associated with your photos and videos. For example, metadata may describe when and on which device your photo has been taken and how such photo is formatted. You may add or may have metadata added to your photos and videos.

5. HOW WE USE COLLECTED INFORMATION

Your photos and videos. We do not use photos or videos you provide when you Use Lensa for any reason other than to apply different stylized filters or effects to them, unless you have given us your explicit consent to use the photos or videos for a different purpose. Please note that to apply different stylized filters or effects to your photos we may upload such photos to the cloud providers we use (Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services), in which case, the photos: (i) become available to us anonymously and (ii) are automatically deleted within 24 hours after being processed by Lensa.

Other information. We may use your information other than photos and videos for the following purposes:

We will not process your Personal Data in a way that is incompatible with the purposes for which it has been collected or authorized by you in accordance with this Section 5 or collect any Personal Data that is not required for the mentioned purposes (“purpose limitation principle”).

For any new purpose of processing we will ask for your separate explicit consent. To the extent necessary for those purposes, we take all reasonable steps to ensure that your Personal Data is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete and current. We also undertake to collect only such amount and types of your Personal Data that are strictly required for the purposes mentioned in this Section 5 (“data minimization principle”).

6. YOUR RIGHTS

Access, modification, correction and erasure. You can send us an email at [email protected] to request access to, modification, correction, update, erasure or deletion of any Personal Data that you have provided to us and that we have about you. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

EEA/UK residents. Individuals residing in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and the United Kingdom (“UK“) have certain statutory rights in relation to their Personal Data including under the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) (“EEA GDPR“) and the Data Protection, Privacy and Electronic Communications (Amendments etc) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 (SI 2020/1586), as may be amended from time to time (“UK GDPR“) (collectively, the “GDPR“), including the rights specified below. You can exercise these rights by contacting us (for contact information, please, see How to Contact Us Section).

Please keep in mind that in case of a vague access, erasure, objection request or any other request in exercise of the mentioned rights we may engage you in a dialogue to better understand the motivation for the request and to locate responsive information. In case this is impossible, we reserve the right to refuse granting your request.

Following the provisions of the GDPR, we might also ask you to prove your identity (for example, by requesting an ID or other proof) in order for you to invoke the mentioned rights. This is made to ensure that no right of third parties are violated by your request, and the mentioned rights are exercised by an actual Personal Data subject or an authorized person.

Please note that we will grant your request within 30 days after receiving it, but it may take up to 90 days in some cases, for example for full erasure of your Personal Data stored in our backup systems - this is due to the size and complexity of the systems we use to store data.
