Think Dirty takes great care to protect your private and personal information under applicable legislation. Before you start using Think Dirty, please take a moment to carefully read and understand our Privacy Policy, which tells you what personal information we collect about you, how we use that personal information, how this information may be shared, and what choices and rights you have with respect to this information.
Our Privacy Policy applies to your access and use of all Think Dirty services and content, which includes the Think Dirty mobile app available on the App Store and Google Play Store, the Think Dirty website at https://www.thinkdirtyapp.com, and the Think Dirty Clean Beautique at https://think-dirty-clean-beautique.myshopify.com (collectively, the “Services”).
Think Dirty is headquartered in Toronto and our Services are provided to you by Think Dirty Inc. If you are a resident of the European Union (“EU”), Think Dirty Inc. is the controller of your personal data for the purposes of the EU data protection legislation.
This policy was originally written in English. To the extent a translated version conflicts with the English version, the English version governs. Unless indicated otherwise, this Privacy Policy does not apply to third party products or services or the practices of companies that we do not own or control, including other companies you might interact with on or through the Services.
If you have questions or comments about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at: questions@thinkdirtyapp.com
Think Dirty relies on a number of legal bases to collect, use, share, and otherwise process the information we have about you for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including:
The legitimate interests of Think Dirty and our third-party service providers and partners include:
When you use Think Dirty, we collect various types of information about you. Some of this information like user accounts and email address, can be used to identify you (“Personally Identifying Information” or “PII”), and some of this information, like activity and log data, cannot be used to identify you (“Non-Personally Identifying Information” or “Non-PII”).
The amount and type of personal information we ask for depends on the nature of the interaction. Think Dirty will only collect such information as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the User’s requested interaction with Think Dirty.
We collect information in a few different ways, including information that you entered when you sign up, from third parties (for example, if you choose to log in with Facebook), and automatically when you use the app (for example, when you scan products and/or add them to your “Bathroom Shelf”).
We collect information that you provide us, including:
Such information is generally considered to be personally identifying information.
We collect information that third parties provide us, including information from other platforms, publicly available information, and information from our partners, service providers and retail affiliates. The information we receive from these other platforms for log in or sign up purposes will generally be considered Personally Identifiable Information.
We collect certain information automatically whenever you use the Services.
If you do not want to provide us with any personally-identifying information, you may use the “Try it out first” feature, but you must acknowledge that it will prevent you from engaging in the full suite of Services offered by Think Dirty.
In general, we use both Personally Identifiable Information and Non-Personally Identifiable Information in order to administer, operate and provide the Services to you.
Here are some of the ways that we use your information:
We may also de-identify or aggregate the information collected in connection with the Services, in ways that do not personally identify you. From time to time, we may use this non-identifying aggregated information to perform statistical analyses of user behavior and demographics in order to measure the interest in and use of the Think Dirty Services, or to publish trends such as number of downloads, number of active users, etc.
Any use of your information that is incompatible with these uses will be disclosed to you in advance so that you may opt out of such uses at your discretion.
Think Dirty will not rent or sell your information to anyone. If any of your information is shared or disclosed to third parties, it will only be so that we can provide you with the full suite of Think Dirty Services.
We share your information in the following ways:
We may share your information with third parties who provide services to Think Dirty, such as hosting by Heroku, mailing list management by Mailchimp, e-commerce solutions by Shopify, analytics and reporting by Google Analytics and Fabric.io, and push notifications by OneSignal, etc. These service providers will only have access to the information necessary to perform these limited functions on our behalf and are required to protect and secure your information. Except as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy, these third party service providers are required not to use your information other than to provide the services requested by us.
We cooperate with law enforcement inquiries and demands for information that are made under force of law. Therefore, we may disclose your information (a) to any governmental authority as part of an investigation to determine our compliance with any applicable law, rule, or regulation (including privacy laws, rules, and regulations), in accordance with the applicable law (b) in response to a court order, subpoena, discovery request, or other lawful judicial or administrative proceeding, in accordance with the applicable law (c) as otherwise required under any applicable law.
We may also disclose your information if we determine in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate to protect the property rights of Think Dirty, third parties, yourself or the public at large.
We may share your information with affiliates under common control with us, who are required to comply with the terms of this Privacy Policy with regards to your information.
If Think Dirty becomes involved in a business merger, acquisition, securities offering, bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution or other similar transaction, we may share or transfer your information in connection with such transaction. If we do this, such disclosure will be subject to confidentiality arrangements that are typical of such transactions.
We do not share your information with third parties for promotional purposes unless you have opted-in to such disclosure. If you have opted-in to have your information shared, you may choose to opt-out from receiving further communications from any third party that is not our agent or service provider at any time by contacting the marketing partner/affiliate directly.
If you send us a request for information or support in relation to our Services, we reserve the right to publish the content of your request (with any PII removed) for the purposes of clarifying our Services for other users (e.g. in a “FAQs” section).
Think Dirty strives to protect your information. We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to safeguard your information in our possession against loss, theft and unauthorized use, disclosure or modification. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. For data transmission security, we use standard encryption protocols (SSL/HTTPS) for transmission of information. The encryption process protects your information by scrambling it before it is sent to us from the App. Our hosting service providers for our database and application are reputable third-party hosting service providers whose privacy, security, transparency and industry-specific standards are best-in-class. Our systems and databases are backed up regularly to help protect your information in case of an uncontrollable catastrophe.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the mobile applications and the internet and no storage of data can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to make all reasonable efforts to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you acknowledge that there is always some risk when transmitting information to us through the Services.
We retain information as long as it is necessary to provide the Services to you and others, subject to any legal obligations to further retainer such information. Information associated with your account will generally be kept until it is no longer necessary to provide the Services or until you ask us to delete it or your account is deleted, whichever comes first. We may however retain information from deleted accounts to comply with the law, to prevent fraud, collect fees, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with investigations, enforce the Terms of Service and take other actions permitted by law. The information we retain will, of course, be subject to this Privacy Policy.
Information about you that is no longer necessary and relevant to provide our Services to you may be de-identified and aggregated with other non-personal data to provide insights which are commercially valuable to Think Dirty, such as statistics related to the use of the Services.
