Your privacy is very important to us. This “Privacy & Personal Data Protection Policy” addresses the data we process about individual authors of content (“Creator”, “you” or “your”) on, through or related to the services we offer to our customers. We are Tagger Media LLC (“we”, “us” or “Tagger”). Our registered office address is at 429 Santa Monica Blvd., Suite 220, Santa Monica, CA 90401.
At Tagger we believe in the importance of protecting your information and ensuring you have appropriate control over it, we've summarized the key points from within our Privacy & Personal Data Policy ("Policy", "Privacy Policy") - but of course we suggest reading it in full.
Only those within our organization with the appropriate access level are able to view your information & we restrict access on our end. If Privacy Policy does not say otherwise, the vocabulary used in Privacy Policy should be understood as GDPR, CCPA or other common law regulations say.

If at any time you are concerned or have questions about how we might be handling your data, please reach out to our Data Protection Officer at privacy@taggermedia.com.
If you do not accept and agree with our Privacy Policy, then you must not access or use the Tagger environment or services.
1. GENERAL
- We pull and index publicly available data from the Internet. We also contract directly with third party providers to gain access to their data. In each case, the data we have access to is published or made available by you and other Creators. This data is then organized and stored in our databases. We offer access to our databases, as well as analytics of the data within that databases, to third parties (our “Services”).
- For the purposes of this Policy, Tagger operates as a data controller, except for information that is obtained via third-party websites, online forums, or other platforms, in which case such platform will serve as data controller with respect to such information, and Tagger Media will serve as data processor. Any personal data we collect from you is processed in the United States, Canada, or the European Union, and under the terms of this Policy. Any personal data we collect from you is processed in the legitimate interest of our business and providing our services to you as the lawful means of such processing. We rely on the following legal bases for processing of your data: your consent; contracts we may have in place with you; and legitimate business interests. In instances where Tagger collects personal data directly from you or via any means other than via public Content Platform APIs (such as Facebook API, Instagram API, Twitter API, YouTube API), Tagger operates as a data controller. In instances where Tagger collects personal data via public Content Platform APIs, Tagger operates as a data processor. In instances where Tagger operates as a data controller, you may always withdraw your consent to our use of your personal data as described below. We will only retain your personal data for the time necessary to provide you the information and services to which you have consented, to comply with the law and in accordance with your rights below. In any other case in which you believe that the processing of personal data or sensitive data does not occur as described above, you should inform us immediately.
- Since all of the data that we access is publicly available at the time of access, the raw data we have about you could be found by anybody with access to the Internet. Some of this data may be personal information about you (for example your name or username in connection with your Twitter or Facebook profile) and other data may not be (for example if you publish an anonymous review on a website). You must be aware that we only work with personal data that you have previously agreed to when working with other partners. We only use the data that you voluntarily provided to publicly available networks.
- As you are the source of the raw data, you have control over that data within the platform you choose to publish it on (e.g. Twitter or Facebook), including through using the privacy settings made available to you by that platform. You represent and warrant that you are, and have at all times been, in compliance with the respective terms of use of all websites and platforms with which you interact or have interacted. In addition to whatever rights you have via your relationship with any publishing platform, you also have certain rights with respect to your personal information that we process, as set out in this Policy.
- This Policy applies to all of the information that we collect through our Services, irrespective of the type of Services or the device on which you access the Services. 5We will collect, store, use and disclose Personal Data (Personal Information) in accordance with all applicable laws relating to the protection of Personal Data, including the EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC, the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679, the EU ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC as amended by Directive 2009/136/EC, UK Data Protection Act 2018, The California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA") as amended or superseded from time to time, and any national implementing legislation ("Data Protection Laws").

3. CONFIRMATION COLLECTION
3.1 Services
- The information we collect varies depending on the source of the information and what you choose to make available. When it comes to data that we haven’t obtained directly from you, we rely on third-part public APIs (such as Instagram API, Facebook API, Twitter API, YouTube API) as our primary method of collection. In instances of personal data other than directly provided by you to us, we only collect data that you have made publicly available by disclosing it on third-party social platforms, websites, or elsewhere online. The data could be personal information, or it could be non- personal (e.g. nobody could be reasonably identified from the data). It could include the following:
- • your name, username, handle, IP address or other identifier;
- • the content of the information you have published via that name, username, handle, or other identifier, including comments, expressions, opinions, posts, etc.;
- • your profile picture;
- • your email or other contact information;
- • your job title or sector;
- • your interests;
- • your location;
- • your gender; and
- • any other information you publish on an Internet website we monitor and/or obtain data from, or on a third party platform that provides us with data.
- In addition to the information you make available about yourself, we may also use that information to infer other information about you. For example, based on your name, we may infer your gender. Equally, based on the content of one of your posts, we may infer some of your interests. You must be aware that different data can become personal data if combined with each other. So be careful when providing any personal data to yourself in posts, emails, notes, etc.
- We may also analyze the content of the information you publish and provide our analysis to our customers. For example, if you publish a Tweet stating that you like a certain brand’s ice cream, we may mark that Tweet as having a positive sentiment toward that brand.
- Tagger Media does not are processing special categories of personal data as defined by Article 9 of GDPR but if we are processing – does it not intentionally.
3.1 Children
- We care about the safety and privacy of children online. The Services are restricted and limited for use by people 16 or over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 years of age. If we become aware that we have inadvertently received personal information from a user under the age of 16, we will delete the information from our records according to the law (e.g., GDPR, CCPA, or Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 ("COPPA"). If any of the laws is more severe, we will comply with it. If you believe we might have any information from or about a person under the age of 16, please contact us at privacy@taggermedia.com.

We require our customers to comply with applicable law, including data privacy laws. We also require our customers to comply with acceptable use guidelines concerning how they use the data.

This includes the obligation to refrain from sharing your/their password with other parties.

It is our aim to undertake all steps reasonably possible to ensure that any of this additional analysis is accurate and kept up to date.
- We will retain any personal information about you for as long as it is reasonably necessary for us to provide the Services.
