This Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) explains Forest Fables’ use of information that we collect when you are using the Service. By using the Service, you are expressly consenting to the practices described in this Policy.

​

(a) Information We Collect
Information collected online can generally be categorized as either non-personal information or personally identifiable information. Non-personal information is information that cannot by itself be traced back to a specific individual. Personally identifiable information is information you provide to us that is uniquely associated with you, such as your name, telephone number, address, tax information (such as a Social Insurance Number), credit card or electronic-payment system information, and email address (collectively, “Personally Identifiable Information”). The information (including Personally identifiable information) that we collect and store includes (a) information you enter on the website or give us in any other way, (b) information you provide us when you register for the Service, (c) billing and other information we collect when you purchase Publications through the Service, (d) additional information we collect at various times such as when you provide feedback, change your email preferences, respond to a survey, or communicate with Forest Fables’ customer support, and (e) information collected automatically when you use the Service such as your IP address, the name and ID of your computer, mobile device, and other devices, your operating system, browser type and version, CPU speed, connection speed, and location information based on your IP address and as derived from GPS or similar features on your mobile device and other devices.

​

(b) How We Use the Information We Collect
We store your Personally Identifiable Information but do not provide it to any third parties. We use this information to provide the Service including sending you notifications and responding to customer support requests.

​

We will not disclose, sell, or exchange Personally Identifiable Information to or with anyone, without your approval, unless we believe disclosure is reasonably necessary to: comply with the law or legal process; protect or defend our rights or property, or the rights or property of others; enforce these Terms; or respond to claims that the content of any material on our system violates the rights of others. We will aggregate user information and perform statistical analyses of the collective characteristics and behavior of our members and visitors, to measure overall demographics and interests regarding specific areas of our domain and to analyze how and where to use our resources. We share general demographic and interest information with third parties, but such aggregate information is not personally identifiable. We also use the aggregate data collected to inform our sponsors as to the number of people who have seen and “clicked” on their advertisement. In addition, we may compile and disclose aggregate information about our users for promotional or other purposes. For example, we might want to disclose that a certain percentage of our users are located within a particular geographic area or fall within a particular age range.

We use both session cookies and persistent cookies. Cookies help us determine how long users view particular content, which particular content (e.g., advertising) users view, which content or sites users link to, and which services members and visitors use. Persistent cookies are used if you choose to enable the auto-login feature. These cookies are randomly generated and uniquely assigned to each user. They are not associated with any Personally Identifiable Information such as name or password.

Session cookies help us keep track of when a person is logged in. Once a user is logged in, session cookies allow us to personalize information on the App for that user.
