The Happy Place is video service. Our service that links to this Privacy Policy provides a one shop stop solution to whenever you are feeling low.
When you use this service, you’ll share some information with us. So we want to be upfront about the information we collect, how we use it, whom we share it with, and the controls we give you to access, update, and delete your information.
That’s why we’ve written this Privacy Policy. And it’s why we’ve tried to write it in a way that’s free of the legalese that often clouds these documents. Of course, if you still have questions about anything in our Privacy Policy, just contact us at: [email protected]
Information We Collect
There are two basic categories of information we collect:
Information you choose to give us.
Information we get when you use our services.
Here’s a little more detail on each of these categories.
When you interact with our service, we collect the information that you provide to us.
When you interact with our service, we collect the information that you choose to share with us. For example, if you choose to sign-up in order to back-up your account or sync your account between different devices, we need to collect a few basic details about you, such as: an email address and a password. Additionally, in our effort to make your life easier we allow you to sign-up using your Facebook or Google account in which case you will be sharing information such as your public profile and email address. Also, it probably goes without saying, but we’ll say it anyway: When you contact customer support or communicate with us in any other way, we’ll collect whatever information you volunteer.
If you decide to register through or otherwise grant access to a third-party social networking or integrated service (what we call an “Integrated Service”), such as Facebook Connect or Google, The Happy Place may also collect Personal Information that is already associated with your Integrated Service account such as your public profile and email address. If you choose to provide such information, during registration or otherwise, The Happy Place will treat the information as Personal Information and will use it in the ways described in this Privacy Policy.
