Digipraise, LLC (“Digipraise,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is an appraisal update service for valuable personal assets. Digipraise removes the obstacle owners face in the process of updating and maintaining asset appraisals by streamlining and partially automating the process using a proprietary technology (our “Service”).
Digipraise cares deeply about privacy and knows you care about how information about you is collected, used, shared, and protected. We’re committed to being upfront about our practices and this privacy policy (the “Policy”) describes our approach to maintaining your privacy. This Policy applies to everyone using the Digipraise application and software (the “App”) and describes the type of information we collect from you, how that information may be used or disclosed by us, who may use our App, and what choices you have regarding your information. This Policy is incorporated as part of Digipraise’s Terms and Conditions of Use, located at https://digipraise.com/digipraise-terms-and-conditions/ that also apply to your use of the App.
It is essential to understand that by using the App, you consent to the collection, storage, sharing, and use of your information as described in this Policy. For that reason, it is important you read this Policy carefully. If you do not accept the terms of this Policy and our Terms and Conditions, do not use the App.
Information Digipraise Collects from and about You
Digipraise collects varying types of information under certain circumstances. Some types of information we may collect about you includes:
- Information You Provide: We receive and store information you submit through use of our App or that you give us in any way (“Personal Information”). Such information includes, but is not limited to, information you provide when creating your user account, such as your name and username, address, phone number, address, email address, and login and password details. We may also collect other Personal Information and data when necessary. We also collect data that is inputted or uploaded by you into the App, including content you upload, such as photographs, all specifics related to the item being appraised, its value, and information pertaining to the initial appraisal and appraiser, and other material of any kind (“User Generated Content”). The collected information is used to enhance and customize the user experience, to respond to inquiries related to the Service, and to communicate with you.
- Automatic Information: When you use our App, we may receive and store information automatically when you interact with us through use of “cookies” and similar technology. Our App may use cookies to track your use of our App regarding your user settings, login information, and other customized functions so our App will remember your information each time you visit. We may also collect and store server logs, including but not limited to, device IP address, access dates and times, metadata when you upload content (including timestamp and location information), features used, other system activity, query activities, and third-party sites or services you were using before interacting with our App. We may use your IP address for verification purposes. We may use or disclose other data collected (aggregated) by us from cookies for other purposes in a way that doesn’t identify any individual. You can disable or reject your use of cookies, but your experience with the App may be affected.
- From Your Mobile Device: Digipraise functions primarily as a mobile based web application. When you use the App as such, we receive device and location identifiers. If you permit the App to access location services through your mobile operating system, we may also collect the precise location of your device when the App is running in the foreground or background. To the extent provided, we may, with your consent, send SMS messages or push notifications to your mobile telephone for authentication, security, and communication purposes. You may opt out of receiving such messages, and can disable these functions any time. However, by doing so, the App may not recognize you as a user and may affect your experience.
- Information from Other Sources: We may also receive information about you from other sources, including third-party website analytic tools, which collect information about visitor traffic; log file information generated when you access or use the App, and other metadata and in some instances, geolocation information. We may combine that data with information we have collected.
How We Use and Share Information
We may use and share your information (including aggregate and anonymized information) in several ways. For the most part, we use personal information to communicate and provide you with your requested information regarding our Service and your appraisal, information regarding new feature or data-related products or services, and to improve your user experience with our App. We may also use your information in the following ways:
- We may monitor and analyze activity, metrics, and trends, and use your information to: (i) verify when you access your account; (ii) learn how the App is used; (iii) understand how you use the App and to deliver relevant content to you; (iv) streamline the App by storing your access credentials and log file; (v) make suggestions and provide a customized experience; and (vi) fix technical errors, update the App, and other internal operations.
- We may employ other companies (including affiliates within our network) to perform functions on our behalf. These service providers and affiliate companies have access to personal and business information needed to perform their functions but are not authorized to use it for other purposes. We do not provide any of your non-public information (such as payment information, password details, or your IP address) to third parties without your consent, unless required by law.
- We may use information to enhance the safety and security of the App and our other users. We will always ensure there is a lawful basis for processing your Personal Information. In addition, we reserve the right to disclose information and any User Generated Content when we believe doing so is reasonably necessary to comply with the law or law enforcement, to prevent fraud or abuse, or to protect Digipraise’s rights.
- Your information may be shared as a company asset in the event of a potential sale, merger, acquisition, or other change of ownership or control. If we transfer any of your Personal Information in such circumstances, we will ensure your Personal Information and data remain protected and that the recipient of such information will comply with and be bound by the obligations of our Policy.
- Digipraise may be required to disclose Personal Information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including disclosures necessary to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, or pursuant to judicial orders.
