Sharepon Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 26, 2024

At Eternal Snowman Technology LLC (“we”, “us”, or “our”), we are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. The Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and safeguard the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using www.sharepon.app (our "Site") and services.

We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use carefully. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use our Site or interact with any other aspect of our business.

What Information Do We Collect?

For the purpose of this Privacy Policy, “personal information” means all information that identifies, relates to, describes, can be associated with, or could reasonably identify you as an individual. Your personal information can be provided directly by you, collected automatically, or provided by other sources.

1. Personal Information You Provide to US Voluntarily

Our Site will collect the personal information you provide to us voluntarily, for example, when you register as a user, upload payment QR codes, email us or otherwise send us your contact information.

Payment QR codes

Personal information includes your email address and Payment QR codes, which may identify you as an individual. When you upload a payment QR code to our Site, we collect the image of the QR code which may include encoded information such as your contact information. Uploaded QR codes are intended for public display to facilitate the voluntary tipping process among users who benefit from shared coupon codes. Uploaded payment QR codes are displayed on our Site for the purpose of allowing other users to send tips directly to your payment account. We do not use these QR codes for any other purpose without your explicit consent.

You choose to upload your payment QR codes voluntarily. Please be aware that by uploading a payment QR code, you are making potentially sensitive information visible to anyone who accesses our Site. This visibility can increase the risk of unwanted transactions or exposure of personal details associated with your payment account, depending on what information your QR code contains.

We urge you to consider the implications of making such information public and to only upload QR codes that are secured against unauthorized use. It is your responsibility to manage the privacy settings of your payment account appropriately. Your payment QR codes will be retained on our site as long as needed to fulfill the intended purpose. You may remove your QR code at any time by going to your Payment QR Code page.

Communication Information

If you choose to correspond further with us through email or phone call, we may collect your contact information, such as email address and phone number, and data and consent related to your request, such as your email messages, a summary of the problem you are experiencing, any documentation, screenshots or information that would be helpful in resolving the issue, and any personal identifiers voluntarily shared.

You can use some of the services without providing these types of personal information, but certain features may not be available. If you would like to update these types of personal information that you previously provided to us, you can log into your account to make updates.
