CAPYBARA PRIVACY POLICY

 

Last updated: September 19, 2022

 

This Privacy Policy describes the privacy practices of Digitribe in connection with the Capybara application (the “Capybara” or “Application”).

 

 

WELCOME TO DIGITRIBE’S PRIVACY POLICY!

 

If you decide not to read this entire Privacy Policy, we want you to walk away with a few key points about Digitribe’s privacy practices:

 

  • Capybara  is a contact harvesting tool integrated in the form of a button on a web page of a campaign or partner organization that enables users to share select email contacts from their address book with this campaign or partner organization.

​

  • When the user clicks on the button , they are invited to sign into their email provider of choice which includes Outlook, Gmail, Yahoo and iCloud. On signing in, the user sees its entire contact list and can check the box next to the name of the contact with whom they want to share information about a campaign/cause led by the campaign or partner organization on its web page.

​

  • We use third-party cloud providers  - specifically, Heroku (Salesforce) - to store e-mails contacts.

 

  • The Application only has access and uploads to a secure database in the Salesforce Cloud (Heroku) the contacts the user selected in the address book while sharing an action.

 

  • The chosen contacts receive an email from the campaign or the partner organizations through Capybara inviting them to opt-in and subsequently receive newsletters and general information about a cause that the user consider of their interest.

 

  • We do not use the e-mail contacts the user provides when uses the Application for any reason other than to allow the campaign or partner organization to send to the user’s selected contacts an invitation to take action. The user’s e-mail contacts who opt-out are deleted and remain in the cloud for a limited period of 24-48 hours after taking action to unsubscribe.

 

If you have any questions about our privacy practices, please email privacy@capybara.tech .

 

 

PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

 

When you use the Application, we may collect information about you and your contacts, including:

 

  • Names and e-mail addresses you provide when you use the Application, via your email provider. We obtain only the specific name and email address you chose to share using the Application; we do not collect all your contacts even if you grant us your access to your agenda or address book. Please note that while we do not require or request any metadata attached to the contacts you upload, metadata (including, for example, pictures) may be associated with your contacts by default. We take steps to delete any metadata that may be associated with a contact you provide when you use the Application.

 

  • Application usage information, such as information about how you use the Application and interact with us, including your preferred language, the date and time when you first clicked on the Capybara button and the date and time you last used the Application.

This information may be collected on our Site using cookies, browser web storage (also known as locally stored objects, or “LSOs”), web beacons, and similar technologies.
