APPLICATION OF THIS STATEMENT
Users of Frizbit, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliated companies (“Frizbit”, “we”, “our”, and “us”) trust us when they come to our website or use our services. This privacy statement is to further that trust by being transparent with our privacy practices regarding personal information (as defined below) that we collect, use, share and secure from: (i) visitors to https://frizbit.com (the “Site”); (ii) users who register to use our online, web-based platform for push notification and analytics services (the “Services” and such users, the “Customers”); and (iii) users of our web applications (“Application(s)”).
This privacy statement is not intended to discuss the collection or use of personal information by a Customer’s use of the Services and does not apply to third-party websites, applications, or services that display or link to different privacy statements. Because a Customer’s collection or use of personal information is specific to their use and implementation of the Services, please consult a Customer’s privacy statement or the written contract between a Customer and Frizbit for the Services for more information. For additional detail, please see the “End Users” section below and Cookie Usage page.
If you have questions or complaints regarding this privacy statement or our privacy practices, please contact us at compliance@frizbit.com.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We collect information, including personal information, in various ways when you use our Site, Applications and Services. As used in this statement, “personal information” means any information which, either alone or in combination with other information, identifies you as an individual, such as your name, mailing address, and email address.
Information You Provide Us
We collect information, including personal information, you provide us voluntarily. For example:
- When you enter in your first and last name, email address, company name and password when you create an account to access the Services (“Account”) or otherwise enter similar information into forms or surveys on our Site or Applications.
- When you enter information using your Account, including postal address, phone number, company name and credit card payment information.
- Simply when you send us an e-mail.
- If you tell us where you are (e.g., by allowing your devices to send us your location), we may store and use that information for internal analytics purposes.
Information Collected Via Technology
We automatically collect certain information via technology:
- IP Address and Browser Information. When you visit our Site or use our Applications, some information is automatically collected. This may include information such as the operating system (“OS”) running on your device, internet protocol address (“IP Address”) (which may be used to obtain your geolocation), access times, browser type, language settings of the OS, and the website you visited before our Site. We also collect information about how you use Frizbit’s Site, Applications and Services, including the elements you have interacted with, metadata and other details about these elements, clicks, change states and other user actions.
- Pixel Tags. In addition, we use “pixel tags” (also referred to as clear gifs, web beacons, or web bugs). Pixel tags are tiny graphic images with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies (as noted below), that are used to track online movements of web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, pixel tags are embedded in web pages. Pixel tags also allow us to send email messages and determine whether those emails have been opened, to ensure that we are sending only messages that are of interest to our Customers. We may use this information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to a user. We do not tie the information gathered by pixel tags to our users’ personal information.
- Browser Local Storage: We also store data locally on your device to enhance the user experience on our Site. For example, browser local storage allows us to save the state of your current page so that when you return at a later time or refresh the browser, the page will remain the same. We may also use browser local storage to: (i) save a list of items the user last used on the Site or Services (such as events and properties the user selected) so we can display “recently viewed items”; or (ii) marking once a user has seen a tutorial, video, tooltip or onboarding flow so that the user only sees the content one time.
- Mobile Services. We may also collect information from your mobile device, such as but not exclusively the first time the Application is opened and the type of device that is being used, if you have downloaded our Applications. This information is generally used to help us deliver the most relevant information to you and improve our Services and analytics platform. Examples of information that may be collected and used include how you use the Applications and information about the type of device you use. In addition, in the event our Applications crash on your mobile device, we will receive information about your mobile device model and OS version, which allows us to identify and fix bugs and otherwise improve the performance of our Applications.
Access and Control of the Information We Collect
We recognize an individual’s right to control the type of personal information that is collected about them. Our Customers can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time. Frizbit retains your personal information while you are a Customer and will delete your personal information upon request. Customers may also send requests for access to your personal information by emailing compliance@frizbit.com. Frizbit will respond to any request to delete Customer personal information. As discussed in the introduction, this privacy statement does not apply to the end-users tracked by our Customers. If you are a customer of a Frizbit Customer, please contact that Frizbit Customer for access to your personal information.

We use third party tools to help us build the profile by providing firmographics: company size and industry for example. These profiles will be used to help us predict future interest in our Services.

Cookies may also provide information to the owner of a website about its users. The text in a cookie often consists of a string of numbers and letters that uniquely identifies your computer, but it can contain other information as well.

If you prefer, you can choose to set your browser to remove cookies or to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our Site and could remove cookies used to opt-out of tracking for the Services.

Third Party Cookies
In addition to the cookies listed above, third parties may also set cookies when you visit the Site. In some cases, that is because we have hired the third party to provide services on our behalf, such as payment processing for credit card billing. In other cases, it is because our web pages contain content or ads from third parties, such as videos, news content or ads delivered by other ad networks. Because your browser connects to those third parties’ web servers to retrieve that content, those third parties are able to set or read their own cookies on your device and may collect information about your online activities across websites or online services. To control cookies from those third parties, visit their sites.
