When this privacy notice refers to “Cheepro”, “us”, “we” or “our”, it refers to Cheepro Limited. (a Hongkongese corporation).
Cheepro is committed to protecting the privacy of all individuals who:
We call the Website, the Applications, the Platforms together the "Services".
To make this notice easier to read, any applicable Cheepro terms of service are referred to as the “Terms”. If you see an undefined term in this Privacy Notice, it has the same definition as in our Terms.
Personal information is information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is an individual that can be identified, directly or indirectly, be referenced to an identifier such as: a name, an identification number, specific location data, an online identifier, or other attributes specific to that natural person.
Personal information does not include information that has been anonymized or aggregated in such a way that it can no longer be used to identify a specific natural person, whether on its own or in combination with other information.
The personal information that we collect falls into two broad categories: Account Data and Content.
Account data (“Account Data”) is personal information you provide us, or that we collect from you and your devices in connection with your access to and use of our Services (such as when you provide us information to register for an account, or information we collect about your browser when you connect to one of our Services, etc.). In legal terms, we collect and use this Account Data as a data controller.
There are two general categories of Account Data we collect in order to provide you with the Services.
1. Information you give us
2. Information we automatically collect from your use of the Services
Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies and similar technologies to provide and support our websites and Services.
Cheepro uses tracking technology (“cookies”) on its Website, in its Applications, and in its Platforms, including mobile application identifiers and a unique Cheepro user ID to help us recognize you across different Services, to monitor usage and web traffic routing for the Services, and to customize and improve the Services. By visiting the Website or using the Services you agree to the use of cookies in your browser and HTML-based emails. Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website, in order to track use of the site and to improve your user experience.
The Services use “session cookies”, which improve your user experience by storing certain information from your current visit on your device, such as log-in information. These enable us to remember your log-in session so you can move easily within the Website or the other Services. Without these session cookies, we would not be able to provide the Services to you. These session cookies have limited functionalities and expirations, and you will be required to re-enter your Cheepro log-in information after a certain period of time has elapsed to protect you against others accidentally accessing your account contents and related Personal Information. Other examples of our use of session cookies include to track the number of visits by a particular visitor to a page and to store items in an online shopping cart for the Shop.
Partners who help us serve advertising on and off the Website and analytics companies may also put cookies on your device. We use several third-party vendors to help deliver ads for relevant Cheepro products and services to you when you visit certain pages on our Website and then visit certain third-party sites. We may share with third-party ad partners a cryptographic hash of a common account identifier (such as an email address), to help us measure and tailor ads and services provided to you. Below is information about one such vendor. Please note that this cookie notice covers only our use of cookies and does not include use of cookies by any third parties.

We do this only to better understand how you use the Website and the other Services, with a view to offering improvements for all Cheepro users; and to tailor our business and marketing activities accordingly, both generally and specifically to you. Google Analytics cookies do not provide Cheepro with any personal information.

Additionally, Cheepro uses Google Analytics code that allows for certain forms of display advertising and other advanced features. Subject to change, the Google Display Advertising features Cheepro currently uses are Remarketing, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, the DoubleClick Campaign Manager Integration, and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting.
These features are used to advertise online; to allow third-party vendors, including Google, to show you advertising across the Internet; to allow Cheepro and third-party vendors, including Google, to use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) and third-party cookies together to inform, optimize, and serve ads based on your past visits to the Website and to report how ad impressions, uses of ad services, and interactions with these ad impressions and ad services are related to visits to the Website. Data from Google's interest-based advertising or third-party audience data (such as age, gender, and interests) is also combined with Google Analytics to better understand the needs of Cheepro users and to improve the Services.
Cheepro uses other third-party performance and remarketing cookies, and further information on those third-party cookies can be obtained by contacting us.

You, as a Cheepro user, control how Content is generated, requested, submitted or published and processed on our Services. When you use our Services, you may view, create, and analyze Content which will ultimately be published on the various Social Networks. If you are a Custom Plan user, we may sell some of the Third-Party Apps to you in our capacity as an authorized reseller (these are called “Partner Services” in our Custom Plan Terms). When you link these Third-Party Apps to your Cheepro account, you allow those Third-Party apps to access and process Content. The Content that flows through our Services may include personal information of all types, including but not limited to the following categories:
As the user, you are the data controller of your Content and we are the data processor for such Content. Where we process Content, we do so at your direction and on your behalf in accordance with the instructions you give us through the Services. When you connect your social media accounts through our Services, we only access, process, and use the Content to provide our Services subject to the Terms and the various terms and conditions imposed by the Social Networks. We may, in limited circumstances process Content for the purposes of improving the Services and functionalities users ask for as part of their Cheepro experience.
If you are using the Services by invitation of a Cheepro customer, whether that customer is your employer, another organization, or an individual, that customer determines its own policies regarding storage, access, modification, deletion, sharing, and retention of Content, which may apply to your use of the Services. Please check with the customer about the policies and settings it has in place.
The Cheepro Services enable an ecosystem where you can choose to connect your Cheepro account with Social Networks, and to Third-Party Apps. If you choose to send your Content to a Social Network and/or a Third-Party App, Cheepro is no longer responsible for that Content from the point in time that it leaves Cheepro’s Services. Instead, the Content will be in the control of the third party, and the relevant third party’s terms and privacy policy will apply. For example, if you use Cheepro to post a message on Twitter, Twitter’s privacy policy and terms of service will apply to that message on Twitter's server, or if you export Content from Cheepro to a third party service like Google Drive, Google Drive’s terms and privacy policy will apply to that exported content. While we attempt to facilitate access only to those Social Networks and Third-Party Apps that share our respect for your privacy, we cannot take responsibility for the Content or privacy policies of any Social Networks or Third-Party Apps. We encourage you to carefully review the privacy policies of any Social Networks or Third-Party Apps you access via the Services.
You should be aware that Cheepro acts as a conduit between you and the various Social Networks and Third-Party Apps. In several instances, the Content published via Cheepro will not be in Cheepro’s custody, and any Content that has been shared by you through any Social Networks or Third-Party Apps via the Services may continue to be available to third parties and the public at large, as this Content is now under the control of the operators of the Social Networks and/or the Third-Party Apps.
An individual who seeks access to, or who seeks to correct or, amend inaccuracies in, or delete Content stored or processed by us on behalf of a user should direct his/her query to the Cheepro user (the data controller) or to the Social Networks or Third-Party App developer. Upon receipt of a request from one of our users for us to remove the data, we will respond to their request within thirty (30) days. Please note however that we may need to retain certain information on our systems for as long as you maintain an account for our Services, for record keeping purposes, to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, enforce our Terms, or as required or authorized by applicable law. Please refer How Long We Keep Personal Information section below for further detail.

Under EU law, Cheepro is a data processor of Content generated, requested or published via Social Networks. We process this Content in accordance with the instructions of our users. Because our users control how their Content is collected and used by them, our users are, in legal terms, the controllers of the Content that they process through our Services and are responsible for complying with applicable data protection laws, including the GDPR.
To facilitate the lawful processing of your Content through the Services, Cheepro makes available to its users a data processing agreement as an addendum to their existing Cheepro agreement (“Data Processing Addendum”). This Data Processing Addendum implements the GDPR’s Article 28 terms for processors and also incorporates the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (processors) of 2010 (also known as “model processor clauses” or "SCC 2010”) to facilitate the lawful transfer of Content that contains personal information from the EU to outside of the EU, where necessary and as required. If you would like to incorporate the Data Processing Addendum into your existing agreement with Cheepro, please contact us.

Please note that certain personal information may need to be retained by Cheepro for a period of time following the cancellation of your account where this is necessary for our legitimate business purposes or required or authorized by applicable law. Our specific retention periods for personal information are documented in our internal retention policies and any applicable retention schedules that we maintain as required by applicable law.
After it is no longer necessary for us to retain your personal information, we will dispose of it in a secure manner, according to our data retention and deletion policies.
