When you visit or use the Services, you expressly consent to the collection, use, storage, processing, and disclosure of your information, including personal information, as described in this Privacy Policy.

Capitalized terms that are not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meaning given in our Terms of Use. If there is something in this Policy or the Terms of Use that you disagree with, you should not access or use the Services.

How We Collect and Use Information

We collect the following types of information about you:

Information you provide us directly:
We ask for certain information such as:

• your username, real name, birthdate, address, phone number, and email address when you register for a prizmworld account, or if you correspond with us. We collect your email address when you choose to sign up for our newsletters.
• We may also retain any messages you send through the Service and may collect information you provide in User Content you post to the Service.
• We use this information to operate, maintain, and provide you with the features and functionality of the Service. Your username and if you choose to disclose it, your real name, will be published publicly. Once published, your username and/or real name may not be able to be removed entirely from the Service.

Information we may receive from third parties:

We may receive information about you from third parties.

• For example, if you access our websites or Service through a third-party connection or log in, for example, through Facebook Connect, by “following,” “liking,” adding the prizmworld application, linking your account to the prizmworld Service, etc., that third party may pass certain information about your use of its service to prizmworld.
• This information could include but is not limited to, the user ID associated with your account (for example, your Facebook UID), an access token necessary to access that service, any information that you have permitted the third party to share with us, and any information you have made public in connection with that service.
• If you allow us access to your friend list, your friends’ user IDs, and your connection to those friends, may be used and stored to make your experience more social, and to allow you to invite your friends to use our Service as well as provide you with updates if and when your friends join prizmworld. You should always review, and if necessary, adjust your privacy settings on third-party websites and services before linking or connecting them to the prizmworld Service. You may also unlink your third-party account from the Service by adjusting your settings on the third-party service.

Inviting a friend to use prizmworld:

• prizmworld may, in its sole discretion, develop a feature that allows you to invite third parties to the Service. If you choose to use our invitation service to invite a third party to the Service through our “Invite friends” feature, you may directly choose a friend to invite through your mobile device’s native contact list – but we do not require that you import your contacts list to the Service, and we do not retain the information contained in your contacts list. You understand that by inviting a friend to prizmworld through the “Invite friends” feature, you are directly sending a text or email from your personal accounts and that we are not storing your contact list. In addition, you understand and agree that normal carrier charges apply to communications sent from your phone. Since this invitation is coming directly from your email or phone, we do not have access to or control this communication.

Finding your friends on the Service:

• prizmworld may, in its sole discretion, develop a feature that allows you to locate your friends with prizmworld accounts through a “Find friends” feature. The “Find friends” feature allows you to choose to locate friends either through (i) your contact list, (ii) social media sites (such as Twitter or Facebook), or (iii) through a search of names and usernames on prizmworld. If you choose to find your friends through your contact list, then you agree to provide prizmworld access to your contact list such that we can perform the search necessary to determine whether or not someone associated with the information you provide is using prizmworld. If you choose to find your friends through social media sites, then you understand that the information these sites provide to use to conduct this type of search is governed by their privacy policies and your account settings on those sites. If you choose to find your friends through a search of names or usernames, then simply type a name to search and see if that name or username appears on our Service. Note that we do not retain any information contained in your contacts list, or information from social media sites about your contacts, and we do not use such information for any purpose other than to help you find your friends on prizmworld.

Analytics information:
We may directly collect analytics data, or use third-party analytics tools and services, to help us measure traffic and usage trends for the Service. These tools collect information sent by your browser or mobile device, including the pages you visit and other information that assists us in improving the Service. We collect and use this analytics information in aggregate form such that it cannot reasonably be manipulated to identify any individual user.

Sharing certain service-type information we collect about you:
We may share certain service type information, including information obtained through tools such as cookies, log files, device identifiers, location data, and clear gifs (such as anonymous usage data, referring/exit pages, and URLs, platform types, number of clicks, etc.): (i) with our third-party business partners for the purposes described in the section above on “How We Collect and Use Information.” We may also aggregate or otherwise strip data of all personally identifying characteristics and may share that aggregated, anonymized data with third parties.

Ads on prizmworld:
We may also share certain information such as your location, browser, cookie data, and other data relating to your use of our Service with our business partners to deliver advertisements (“ads”) that may be of interest to you. prizmworld may allow third-party ad servers or ad networks to serve advertisements on the Service. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser or mobile device, the ads and ad links that appear on the Service, and will automatically receive your IP address when they do so. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, device identifiers, location data, and clear gifs, see above) to compile information about your browser’s or device’s visits and usage patterns on the Service and on other websites, and to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize the advertising content delivered to you.

For example, Google uses DART cookies in order to deliver ads to you through the Service. Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to the Service and previous websites that you may have visited. Other advertising networks also use similar cookies, clear gifs, or other mechanisms to deliver targeted advertising to you through the Service. You can delete these cookies by following the instructions here. You may opt out of the use of Google’s DART cookie and cookies placed by Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) certified ad networks here. Opting out of these cookies will be effective not only on the Service but on all websites with NAI certified advertising networks. However, these opt-outs will be ineffective on networks that are not NAI certified.

Please note that an advertiser may ask prizmworld to show an ad to a certain audience of Users (e.g., based on demographics or other interests). In that situation, prizmworld or our advertising partners determines the target audience and prizmworld serves the advertising to that audience and only provides anonymous data to the advertiser. If you respond to such an ad, the advertiser or ad server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach. When you use our website, we may also share information that we collect from you, such as your email (in hashed form), IP address or information about your browser or operating system, with our identity partners/service providers. In the case of LiveRamp, LiveRamp returns an online identification code that we may store in our first-party cookie for our use in online, in-app, and cross-channel advertising and it may be shared with advertising companies to enable interest-based and targeted advertising. To opt out of LiveRamp on prizmworld, please go here: https://optout.liveramp.com/opt_out.

Your Rights as a California Resident
Effective on January 1, 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides consumers (California residents) with specific rights regarding their Personal Information. Effective on January 1, 2023, the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) provides consumers additional rights regarding their Personal Information. If you reside in California, you may exercise the following rights:

• A right to disclosure of the categories of Personal Information collected by us
• A right to disclosure of the specific pieces of Personal Information collected by us
• A right to deletion of Personal Information by us (subject to certain exceptions outlined below)
• A right to receive Personal Information in a format that will allow its transfer to third parties by you and/or request that prizmworld transfer that Personal Information to another entity
• A right to opt-out of the “sale” of Personal Information, where a “sale” under the CCPA means “selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a consumer’s Personal Information to another business or a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.”
• A right to opt out of the “share” of Personal Information with another business or a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.
• A right to correct Personal Information about you that is inaccurate
• A right to sue for security breaches of Personal Information.

Access to specific information and data portability rights
You have the right to request that we disclose to you the Personal Information we have collected about you on or after January 1, 2022. Once we receive and confirm your request, we will disclose to you:

• Types of personal information we collected about you.
• Sources of the personal information we collected.
• Reasons why we collected or shared your personal information.
• Parties with whom we shared your personal information.
• Specific pieces of personal information we collected about you.
• If we sold or disclosed your personal information, we will provide separate lists for:
  • Personal information categories sold, and the recipients who purchased them.
  • Personal information categories disclosed for business purposes, and the recipients who obtained them.

Deletion request rights
You have the right to request that we delete any of Personal Information data that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain Exceptions (as listed below). Once we receive and confirm your request, we will delete your Personal Information from our records unless an Exception applies. When we receive a request to delete your Personal Information, we need to notify all service providers and third parties to whom we’ve sold or shared that Personal Information and request that those service providers and third parties also delete the Personal Information.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our Provider(s):

• to complete the transaction for which we collected the Personal Information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you;
• to detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;
• to debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;
• to exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law;
• to comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.);
• to engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement if you previously provided informed consent;
• to enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us;
• to comply with a legal obligation; or
• to make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it (each an “Exception” and collectively, “Exceptions”).

Correction Request Rights
You have the right to request that we correct any Personal Information that we collected and retained about you. We will make a reasonable effort to correct any inaccurate Personal Information within 45 days of receiving a verifiable consumer request. To verify a consumer’s identity, we will ask for a minimum of two pieces of Personal Information, which include but are not limited to full name, email address, or other site identifiers like a username. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. To exercise a request to correct any Personal Information, please submit a request to us by either:

• privacy@prizmworld.com

Exercising Access, Data Portability and Deletion Rights
To exercise your rights described above, please submit a request to us by either:

• privacy@prizmworld.com

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a request related to your Personal Information. You may also make a request on behalf of your minor child. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you.

You may only make a request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The request must:

• provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative; and
• describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

Making a request does not require you to create an account with us. Also, we will only use Personal Information provided in a request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Your Authorized Agent
You have the right to designate an authorized agent to make a request under the CPRA on your behalf.

Response Timing and Format
We will confirm that we received your request within ten (10) days and will respond within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response electronically or, at your option, by mail. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA or CPRA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA or CPRA, we will not:

• deny you goods or services.
• charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
• provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
• suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

However, we may still offer you certain financial incentives that can result in different prices, rates or service quality levels as permitted by the CCPA or CPRA. We do not at this time provide any such financial incentives.

Other California Privacy Rights
