If you do not maintain the security of your password or device, or fail to log out or deactivate your device, subsequent users may be able to access your account, including your personal information.

Cookies and Internet Advertising

We and our Service Providers use cookies and other technologies (such as web beacons), as well as resettable device identifiers, for various reasons. We want you to be informed about our use of these technologies, so this section explains the types of technologies we use and what they do.

Cookies and similar technologies, web beacons, and resettable device identifiers

Cookies are small data files that are commonly stored on your device when you browse and use websites and online services. We use other technologies such as browser storage and plugins (e.g., HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). Like cookies, these other technologies may store small amounts of data on your device. Web beacons (also known as clear gifs or pixel tags) often work in conjunction with cookies. In many cases, declining cookies will impair the effectiveness of web beacons associated with those cookies.

If you use the Quizwiz app on a mobile device, tablet, or streaming media device, we may collect a resettable device identifier from your device. Resettable device identifiers (also known as advertising identifiers) are similar to cookies and are found on many mobile devices and tablets (for example, the "Identifier for Advertisers" (or IDFA) on Apple iOS devices and the "Google Advertising ID" on Android devices). Like cookies, resettable device identifiers are used to make online advertising more relevant and for analytics and optimization purposes.

Why does Quizwiz use these technologies?

We use these types of technologies for various reasons, like making it easy to access our services by remembering you when you return; to provide, analyze, understand and enhance the use of our services; to enforce our terms, prevent fraud; to improve site performance, monitor visitor traffic and actions on our site; and to deliver and tailor our marketing or advertising, and to understand interactions with our emails, marketing, and online ads on third party sites. We may also use these technologies to support the operation of our ad supported subscription plans.

To help you better understand how we use cookies and resettable device identifiers, please see the information below:

  • Essential cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide our website or online service. For example, we and our Service Providers may use these cookies to authenticate and identify our users when they use our websites and applications so we can provide our service to them. They also help us to enforce our Terms of Service, prevent fraud and maintain the security of our service.

  • Performance and functionality cookies: These cookies help us to customize and enhance your online experience with Quizwiz. For example, they help us to remember your preferences and prevent you from needing to re-enter information you previously provided. We also use these cookies to collect information (such as popular pages, conversion rates, viewing patterns, click-through and other information) about our visitors' use of the Quizwiz service so that we can enhance and personalize our website and service and conduct market research. Deletion of these types of cookies may result in limited functionality of our service.

  • Advertising cookies and resettable device identifiers: These cookies and resettable device identifiers use information about your use of this and other websites and apps, your response to ads and emails, and to deliver ads that are more relevant to you.

When we advertise our services on other websites or apps, some of the websites and apps where we advertise, as well as advertising technology companies that we use to purchase, deliver, optimize, and/or measure our advertisements (collectively “Advertising Partners”), may receive information from us as part of our campaign targeting, measurement, and optimization (e.g., steps completed in sign-up and site visit or app open/install information). Common uses of this type of information are to judge the effectiveness of and optimize ad campaigns, by allowing Advertising Partners to see when someone who saw an ad later signed up for our service. Another common use is to make sure we do not serve ads trying to get individuals to sign up for the Quizwiz service if they are already a Quizwiz user.

In connection with our ad supported subscription plans, Quizwiz, our Ad Service Providers, and Ad Measurement Companies can use these technologies to operate and support our ad supported subscription plans, including supporting an Advertiser’s ad campaigns, measurement, and optimization of the same.

How can I exercise choice regarding these technologies?

  • To exercise choice regarding resettable device identifiers

    To opt out of behavioral ads from Quizwiz in connection with an resettable device identifier on a mobile device or tablet, please configure the appropriate setting on your device (usually found under "privacy" or "ads" in your device's settings). You may still see Quizwiz ads on your device, but they will not be selected based on your likely interests. Exercising choice over a resettable identifier is specific to that device.

  • To exercise choice regarding other technologies

    There are a number of ways to exercise choice regarding technologies that are similar to cookies, such as browser storage and plugins (e.g., HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). For example, many popular browsers provide the ability to clear browser storage, commonly in the settings or preferences area; see your browser's help function or support area to learn more. Other technologies, such as Silverlight storage, may be cleared from within the application.

Your Information and Rights

You can request access to your personal information, or correct or update out-of-date or inaccurate personal information we hold about you. You may also request that we delete personal information that we hold about you.

For requests, or if you have any other question regarding our privacy practices, please contact our Data Protection Officer/Privacy Office at . We respond to all requests we receive from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

We may reject requests that are unreasonable or not required by law, including those that would be extremely impractical, could require disproportionate technical effort, or could expose us to operational risks such as enabling fraud.

Retention of information: We may retain information as required or permitted by applicable laws and regulations, including to honor your choices, for our billing or records purposes and to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Statement. Specifically, we retain information for our legitimate interests and essential business purposes, such as operating, maintaining and improving our services; complying with our legal obligations; and exercising our legal rights and remedies, including enforcing our terms of service. Our retention of information is based on many factors such as your relationship with Quizwiz (for example, are you a Quizwiz current subscriber); the nature of the information; compliance with our legal obligations; defending or resolving actual or anticipated legal claims. We take reasonable measures to destroy or de-identify personal information in a secure manner when it is no longer required.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, logical, physical and managerial measures to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft and unauthorized access, use and modification. These measures are designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risks of processing your personal information. Unfortunately, no measures can be guaranteed to provide 100% security. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.

Other Websites, Platforms and Applications

The Quizwiz service may be provided through and/or utilize features (such as the display of social media content) operated by third party platforms, or contain links to sites operated by third parties whose policies regarding the handling of information may differ from ours. For example, you may be able to access the Quizwiz service through platforms such as mobile devices and a number of other Internet connected devices, or if you subscribe to an ad supported subscription plan, ads displayed may allow you to interact with them through clicking them. These websites and platforms have separate and independent privacy or data policies, privacy statements, notices and terms of service, which we recommend you read carefully. In addition, you may encounter third party applications that interact with the Quizwiz service.

Children

You must be at least 18 years of age or older to subscribe to the Quizwiz service. Minors may only use the service with the involvement, supervision, and approval of a parent or legal guardian.

Changes to This Privacy Statement

We will update this Privacy Statement from time to time in response to changing legal, regulatory or operational requirements. Your continued use of the Quizwiz service after any such updates take effect will constitute acknowledgement and (as applicable) acceptance of those changes. If you do not wish to acknowledge or accept any updates to this Privacy Statement, you may cancel your use of the Quizwiz service. To see when this Privacy Statement was last updated, please see the "Last Updated" section below.

Sources of CCPA personal information

We explain our sources of information in the Collection of Information section of our Privacy Statement. (Please see that section for more information that may be of interest to you.) For ease of reference, in regard to CCPA personal information these are:

  • You (the consumer) when you provide us CCPA personal information directly, and when we collect it automatically based on your interactions with us (for example, through your computer or other Quizwiz capable device you might use to access our service (such as mobile devices));

  • Partners (other companies with whom you have a relationship). These Partners might include (depending on what services you use): social media and/or other companies that provide your ability to log in to the Quizwiz service using your login credentials with that company and other companies who provide services to you and collect payment for the Quizwiz service for distribution to us; and

  • Other sources. Service Providers who support our business including: security and payment service providers; Ad Service Providers, Ad Measurement Companies, and Advertisers; publicly-available sources, specifically, public posts on social media platforms; and information about Internet Service Providers (ISPs) used by users to access Quizwiz through public databases associating IP addresses with ISPs.

CCPA Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

As of the date of this Privacy Notice, we may use certain types of information to offer users an ad supported subscription plan or engage in certain marketing activities. Under the CCPA, this activity may be considered “selling” or “sharing.”

Financial Incentives 

When you subscribe to Quizwiz you may choose an ad supported subscription plan. It is possible that some may interpret an ad supported subscription plan to fall within the meaning of a “financial incentive” for the purposes of the CCPA.

If you choose an ad supported subscription plan, you may be presented ads which may appear before, during, or after content viewed on Quizwiz. In certain circumstances some content and features may not be accessible under an ad supported subscription plan. 

If you would like to stop participating in an ad supported subscription plan, you can simply access the billing portal ("Manage subscription" button) of your Quizwiz account through a web browser and select a different plan that is not an ad supported subscription plan. The monthly fee associated with your Quizwiz subscription will likely increase if you move from an ad supported subscription plan to one that is not an ad supported subscription plan. We believe the reduction in monthly fee for participation in an ad supported subscription plan and use of the categories of CCPA personal information described above to present relevant ads to you represents a fair exchange to continue to provide users a high quality service at a lower direct out of pocket price to users. When considering the size of reduction in monthly fee for participating in an ad supported subscription plan, we considered projected ad revenue generated by all users projected to participate in an ad supported subscription plan and the overall revenue required by Quizwiz to operate and innovate its business, produce the content to educate its users and make a profit.

State Specific Sections

Sale and Use of Personal Information for Targeted Advertising Purposes. We may use certain types of information to offer users an ad supported subscription plan or engage in certain marketing activities. This activity may be considered “selling”, or “targeted advertising” under US State Privacy Laws. Our practices regarding sale or targeted advertising may depend on how you interact with us, the services you use and the choices you make.

Use of De-Identified Information. As described in the Your Information and Rights section of our Privacy Statement, we may de-identify personal information in a secure manner when we determine it is appropriate as part of our business operations. We take reasonable measures to maintain and use the information in a de-identified manner. We do not make any attempts to re-identify such information, except as permitted under applicable law.

Your rights under Applicable US State Privacy Laws

To the extent applicable under US State Privacy Laws, you may have the following rights in connection with your personal information:

  • In California, you have the right to request that we disclose: what categories and specific pieces of CCPA personal information have been collected about you; the categories of sources from which CCPA personal information are collected; our business or commercial purpose for collecting, using, disclosing, selling or sharing personal information; the categories of third parties with whom we disclose, sell or share personal information; the categories of personal information we have disclosed, sold or shared about you for a business purpose.

  • You have a right to deletion of your personal information, subject to exceptions under applicable US State Privacy Laws. 

  • You have a right to request correction of any inaccurate personal information we hold about you.

We will not discriminate against you based on your exercise of any of your rights.

You can assert these rights only where we receive a verified request from you. For information on how to exercise your rights, please see the Your Information and Rights section above.

If you are a consumer in a jurisdiction that recognizes the ability to use an authorized agent and wish to contact us through an authorized agent, the authorized agent can submit a request on your behalf to along with a statement, certified as may be required, that the agent is authorized to act on your behalf. In order to verify the request, we may ask you to verify your identity.

Appeals. If you are in a jurisdiction that recognizes your ability to appeal a decision we have made in connection with your attempt to assert a right under applicable US State Privacy Laws, you may file an appeal of our decision refusing your request to exercise your rights under this Privacy Notice. Requests to change our policies or practices are not grounds for appeal. You may request an appeal of such decision by contacting us at , please provide the state that you are writing from, accompanied with documentation you may have regarding the matter you are appealing.
