Thank you for using MINIPPS. We wrote this policy to help you understand what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have. Because we’re an Internet company, some of the concepts below are a little technical, but we’ve tried our best to explain things in a simple and clear way. We welcome your questions and comments on this policy.
We collect information in a few different ways:
When you sign up for or use our products, you voluntarily give us certain information. This can include your name, profile photo, comments, likes, email address you used to sign up, and any other information you provide us. If you’re using MINIPPS on your mobile device, you can also choose to provide us with location data.You also may give us permission to access your information in other services.For example, you may link your Facebook or Twitter account to MINIPPS, which allows us to obtain information from those accounts (like your friends or contacts). The information we get from those services often depends on your settings or their privacy policies, so be sure to check what those are.
These days, whenever you use a website, mobile application, or other Internet service, there’s certain information that almost always gets created and recorded automatically. The same is true when you use our products. Here are some of the types of information we collect: Log data. When you use MINIPPS, our servers automatically record information (“log data”), including information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website or your mobile app sends when you’re using it.This log data may include your Internet Protocol address, the address of the web pages you visited that had MINIPPS features, browser type and settings, the date and time of your request, how you used MINIPPS, and cookie data. Cookie data. Depending on how you’re accessing our products, we may use “cookies” (a small text file sent by your computer each time you visit our website, unique to your MINIPPS account or your browser) or similar technologies to record log data. When we use cookies, we may use “session”cookies (that last until you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (that last until you or your browser delete them). For example, we may use cookies to store your language preferences or other MINIPPS settings so you don‘t have to set them up every time you visit MINIPPS. Some of the cookies we use are associated with your MINIPPS account (including personal information about you,such as the email address you gave us), and other cookies are not. Device information. In addition to log data, we may also collect information about the device you’re using MINIPPS on, including what type of device it is, what operating system you’re using, device settings, unique device identifiers, and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this information often depends on what type of device you’re using and its settings.For example, different types of information are available depending on whether you’re using a Mac or a PC, or an iPhone or an Android phone. To learn more about what information your device makes available to us, please also check the policies of your device manufacturer or software provider.
Sometimes our partners may let us collect information when you use their services, or may share with us the information they collect. For example: Some websites or apps use MINIPPS features like our “App4SAP” button. If so, we may collect log information (described above) from those sites or apps.

We also receive this information, which may include information like whether clicks on ads led to purchases or a list of criteria to use in targeting ads.
