Privacy Policy

Effective date: March 22, 2021

I. INTRODUCTION

Simple Echo Limited (“we,” “us” or “our”) takes your privacy seriously. This Privacy policy (“Privacy policy”) explains our data protection policy and describes the types of data we may process when you use our Scanner Pro Application.

When we refer to personal data (or personal information) we mean any information of any kind relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. It is a natural person who can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identification number or to one or more factors specific to his or her physical, physiological, mental, economic, cultural or social status.

We do not compromise with your privacy. We design all our products and services with your privacy in mind. We involve experts from various fields, including legal, security and others to make sure that no decision is taken without respect for your privacy.

We strive to be transparent in the way we process your data. Because we use many of the same online services you do, we know that insufficient information and overly complicated language are common issues in privacy policies. We take the exact opposite approach: we have written our Privacy Policy and related documents in plain language. We sincerely want you to read our policies and understand our privacy practices!

Our Privacy policy applies to all users who access the Application “Scanner Pro”(“Users”).

For the purposes of the GDPR, we are the data controller.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE FOLLOWING PRIVACY POLICY, FOR INFORMATION REGARDING THE WAYS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION MAY BE PROCESSED. WHEN YOU USE THE WEBSITE YOU AGREE TO THE COLLECTION AND USE OF INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PRIVACY POLICY.

II. INFORMATION WE PROCESS

There are two general categories of information we may process.

We may collect and store any personal information you enter on the website or provide us in some other manner, including personal information that may be contained in any feedback communication. This includes your name, e-mail address, and other information you decide to submit us.

When you use the Website, some information about your device and your user behavior may be processed automatically. This information is generally non-personal, and we may access it only in aggregated form. We process this information on the ground of our legitimate interest in improving our application and giving our users the best experience.

Device identifiers. When you access our application, we may access or monitor one or more “device identifiers”. Device identifiers are small data files or similar data structures stored on or associated with your device, which uniquely identifies your device.

We may process inter alia the following data:

l IP address;

log file and similar technologies. When you use the application, we may collect information about how you interact with us as what content you viewed and which areas of the page you visited.

When you use our application, analytics tools automatically record certain log file information, including time and date when you start and stop using the application, and how you interact with the application.

l Device information

We collect information from and about the device(s) you use to access our services, including:

4.COOKIES AND OTHER SIMILAR DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES

We sometimes work with third parties to deliver ads or offers. Sometimes we or these third parties do so through a mobile "SDK." The SDK is a bit of computer code that app developers can include in their apps to enable data to be collected and ads to be shown. We may use this and similar technology to deliver certain advertising through mobile applications and browsers based on data associated with your mobile device, and we may work with third parties who likewise embed their SDKs into our services, for third party advertising.
