Privacy Policy
Effective Date: June 18, 2021

Privacy and security are very important to us at Pikkit (“Pikkit,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) is meant to help you understand how we at BookSync collect, use, and share end user information in our possession to operate, improve, develop, and protect our Platform (including our Website and App), and as otherwise outlined in this Policy. Our Platform allows friends, family and experienced bettors to sync and share their betting activity with community members and chat in groups about their betting activity, and much more. Please take some time to read this Policy carefully.


THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT
In the course of operating the Platform, we may collect the following types of information.




INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE TO US
When you register for the Platform to create an account, or contact us, you will be required to provide us with information about yourself (the “Personal Information”). Such Personal Information may include your name, address, e-mail address, phone number and other information. We may also collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, such as household income range, personal interests, and product and service preferences. If you register for the Platform using your Facebook or any other social media account provided by a social media service, we may collect, store, and use any and the information provided to us by the social media service in accordance with the terms of its privacy policy. Such information may include, without limitation, your first and last name, username, profile picture, unique social media identifier and access token, and e-mail address.


TRANSACTION INFORMATION
As a Member, when you make a Transaction, we will collect information about your Transaction, including the date and time of the Transaction, the Transaction amount, the bet(s) placed and the institution involved the transaction (the “Transaction Information”). As part of using the platform, you will be given the option to link your betting accounts to your Pikkit account. Pikkit does not collect or obtain access to your payment information, nor does it facilitate the act of betting in any financial capacity. Rather, Pikkit may route you to a legal betting operator in your territory.

INFORMATION COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY
We may collect additional information automatically when you visit and/or use the Platform including your Internet protocol (IP) address, user settings, MAC address, cookie identifiers, mobile carrier, mobile advertising and other unique identifiers, details about your browser, operating system or device, location information, Internet service provider, pages that you visit before, during and after using the Platform, information about the links you click, and other information. In addition, we may collect data regarding your use of the Platform, such as the types of content you interact with, information derived from your Groups and your User Content (including other Members with whom you interact, topics you discuss with your Groups, and anything else that you post or interact with via the Platform) and the frequency, duration, and timing of your activities. We may combine your information with information that other people provide when they use our Platform. We, as well as third parties that provide content, advertising, or other functionality on the Platform, may use cookies, pixel tags, local storage, and other technologies (“Technologies”) to automatically collect information through the Platform. Technologies are essentially small data files placed on your devices that allow us and the third parties to record certain pieces of information whenever you visit or interact with our Platform. Cookies are small text files placed in web browsers to store their preferences. Most browsers allow you to block and delete cookies. However, if you do that, the Platform may not work properly. A pixel tag (also known as a web beacon) is a piece of code embedded in the Platform that collects information about engagement on a web page. The use of a pixel allows us to record, for example, that you have visited a particular web page or clicked on a particular advertisement. We may also use Google Analytics and other service providers to collect information regarding behaviors and demographics on the Platform. For more information about Google Analytics, please visit www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
You can opt out of Google’s collection and processing of data generated by your use of the Platform by going to http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
