3. Information We Collect

Help understanding the types of information we collect as you use our services

We collect information about you in order to provide services related to your activities.

Personal information is data that can be used to uniquely identify or contact a single person. You may be asked to provide your personal information anytime you are in contact with Burble or an Burble affiliated company. Burble and its affiliates may share this personal information with each other and use it consistent with this Privacy Policy. They may also combine it with other information to provide and improve our products, services, content, and advertising.


Information you create or provide to us

When you create a Burble Account, purchase a product, download a software update, or utilize Burble services, we may collect a variety of information, including your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, contact preferences, and credit card information.

When you register for and/or participate on Burble forums, Burble may collect the information you provide about those people such as name, mailing address, email address, and phone number.

Even if you aren’t signed in to a Burble Software Account, you might choose to provide us with information — like an email address to sign up for an activity with one of our providers for example a skydiving center. We also collect the content you create, upload, or receive from others when using our services. This includes things like skydiving log book entries, messages between yourself and other participants using the Burble Me App

Information we collect as you use our services

Your apps, browsers & devices

We collect information about the apps, browsers, and devices you use to access Burble services The information we collect includes unique identifiers, browser type and settings, device type and settings, operating system, and application version number. We also collect information about the interaction of your apps, browsers, and devices with our services, including IP address, crash reports, system activity, and the date, time, and referrer URL of your request.

Your activity

We use various technologies to collect and store information using 3rd party services such as google analytics, including cookies, pixel tags, such as browser web storage or application data caches, databases, and server logs.

Your location information

We collect information about your location when you use our services if you have chosen to enable features in Burble that require GPS information.

The types of location data we collect depend in part on your device and account settings. For example, you can turn on location tracking on a device that has GPS available whilst you are engaged in an activity. This can potentially be used to locate you in the event you are injured and are unable to call for help. It should not be relied on as a substitute for emergency services.

Collection and Use of Non-Personal Information

We also collect non-personal information − data in a form that does not permit direct association with any specific individual. We may collect, use, transfer, and disclose non-personal information for any purpose. The following are some examples of non-personal information that we collect and how we may use it:

We may collect information such as occupation, language, zip code, area code, unique device identifier, location, and the time zone where an Burble product is used so that we can better understand customer behavior and improve our products, services, and advertising.

We also may collect information regarding customer activities on our website, and from our other products and services. This information is aggregated and used to help us provide more useful information to our customers and to understand which parts of our website, products, and services are of the most interest. Aggregated data is considered non- personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.

If we do combine non-personal information with personal information, then the combined information will be treated as personal information for as long as it remains combined.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We treat information collected by cookies and other technologies as non-personal information. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by local law, we also treat these identifiers as personal information. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal information is combined with personal information, we treat the combined information as personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.

Protection of Personal Information

Burble takes precautions — including administrative, technical, and physical measures — to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

Burble online services use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all web pages where personal information is collected.

Doing so protects the confidentiality of your personal information while it's transmitted over the Internet.

You are responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these instances. For example, if you list your name and email address in a forum posting, that information is public. Please take care when using these features.
All Burble products are built with strong security features that continuously protect your information. We always use encryption to keep your data private while in transit and in storage.
