Privacy Policy

BADGES XYZ, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) respect your right to privacy. This PRIVACY POLICY (this “Policy”) applies to information and data collected online through our website, www.badges.xyz (the “Site”) and governs online data collection and usage by the Company. Please read this Policy carefully and contact us if you have any questions.

Information We Collect

We collect a variety of information from you when you visit our Site or interact with us on social media. We use this information to provide you with up-to-date information as quickly and efficiently as possible.

The information we collect may include the following:

Personal Data: We may collect your name and email address. You consent to giving us this information by providing it to us voluntarily on our Site. You may provide some of this information when you create an account or otherwise use our Site. Your decision to disclose this data is entirely voluntary, but your refusal may prevent you from accessing certain benefits from our Site and our services or products. Additional personal data may be collected by our third-party vendors in the provision of our services or products. Please take the time to review these vendors’ privacy policies to determine how they use and protect your personal data.

Non-Personal Data: There is “non-personal data” that our servers may automatically collect about you when you access our Site, such as your IP address, the type of computer you use, your operating system, browser type, the dates and times that you access our Site and the specific pages you view. If you are using a mobile application, our servers may collect information about your device name, type, ID model and manufacturer, your phone number, your country of origin and other interactions with our application. Additional non-personal data may be collected by our third-party vendors in the provision of our services or products. Please take the time to review these vendors’ privacy policies to determine how they use and protect your personal data.

Financial Data: Financial data relates to your credit card or bank transfer details used to purchase services or products on our Site. We do not store financial data. Financial data is transferred to our payment processors which are subject to change from time to time. Please take the time to review these processors’ privacy policies to determine how they use and protect your financial data.

More About IP Addresses: An “IP address” is a unique number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you connect to the Internet. It is used to identify your computer’s “location” in cyberspace, so that the information you request can be delivered to you. IP addresses do not include your name, email address or other information that identifies you personally, but in some cases, they can be used to identify you. For example, if you have registered with our Site, we may link your IP address to account information that identifies you personally. We may also provide your IP address to our third-party service providers who can use it to identify your state and zip code. This gives us valuable demographic information about the individuals who use our Site.

How We Use Your Information

Your information allows us to offer you certain products and services, including the use of our Site, to fulfill our obligations to you, to customize your interaction with us and our Site, and to allow us to suggest other products and services we think might interest you. We generally store your data and transmit it to a third party for processing. However, to the extent we process your data, we do so to serve our legitimate business interests (such as providing you with the opportunity to purchase our products or services and interact with our Site).

You may, at any time, opt out of receiving any information from us. Your information may be aggregated with other users’ information on a purely non-identifiable basis to understand how our services or products are used to help make them better.
