LivePictur uses both session cookies and persistent cookies. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser. Persistent cookies may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the site. Persistent cookies can be removed by following your web browser help file directions. A session cookie is temporary and disappears after you close your browser.

These server logs may include information such as your web request, Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browser type, browser language, referring / exit pages and URLs, platform type, number of clicks, domain names, landing pages, pages viewed and the order of those pages, the amount of time spent on particular pages, the date and time of your request, one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser, and various status information. When you use the LivePictur Service, our servers log certain general information that our application sends whenever a message is sent or received, or if you update or request any status information, including location if provided, time and date stamps and the mobile usernames the messages were sent from and to.

The contents of messages that have been delivered by the LivePictur Service are copied, kept or archived by LivePictur in the normal course of business.
If you submit Personally Identifiable Information to us through the LivePictur Site, or LivePictur Service, then we use your personal information to operate, maintain, and provide to you the features and functionality of the LivePictur Site and LivePictur Service. In particular, your email and username is essential to your use of the LivePictur Service and will be retained. Any billing information that may be collected from you will be deleted thirty (30) days after the termination of your account with LivePictur. Any Personally Identifiable Information or status content that you voluntarily disclose on the LivePictur Service becomes publicly available and may be collected and used by other users of the LivePictur Service (unless such user is blocked by you). We do not use your email or other Personally Identifiable Information to send commercial or marketing messages without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out. We may, however, use your email address without further consent for non-marketing or administrative purposes (such as notifying you of major LivePictur Site or LivePictur Service changes or for customer service purposes). We may use both your Personally Identifiable Information and certain non-personally-identifiable information (such as anonymous user usage data, cookies, IP addresses, browser type, clickstream data, etc.) to improve the quality and design of the LivePictur Site and LivePictur Service and to create new features, promotions, functionality, and services by storing, tracking, and analyzing user preferences and trends. Hopefully we improve the LivePictur Site and Service and don't make it suck worse. We may use cookies and log file information to: (a) remember information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you use the LivePictur Service or LivePictur Site; (b) provide custom, personalized content and information; (c) monitor individual and aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors, pages viewed, etc.; and (d) track your entries, submissions, views and such.
We do not sell or share your Personally Identifiable Information (such as email) with other third-party companies for their commercial or marketing use without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out. We may share your Personally Identifiable Information with third party service providers to the extent that it is reasonably necessary to perform, improve or maintain the LivePictur Service. We may share non-personally-identifiable information (such as anonymous User usage data, referring / exit pages and URLs, platform types, asset views, number of clicks, etc.) with interested third-parties to assist them in understanding the usage patterns for certain content, services, advertisements, promotions, and/or functionality on the LivePictur Site. We may collect and release Personally Identifiable Information and/or non-personally-identifiable information if required to do so by law, or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with state and federal laws (such as U.S. Copyright Law), international law or respond to a court order, subpoena, or search warrant or equivalent, or where in our reasonable belief, an individual's physical safety may be at risk or threatened. LivePictur also reserves the right to disclose Personally Identifiable Information and/or non-personally-identifiable information that LivePictur believes, in good faith, is appropriate or necessary to enforce our Terms of Service, take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend itself against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, to protect the security or integrity of the LivePictur Site or our servers, and to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of LivePictur, our users or others.
You may, of course, decline to submit Personally Identifiable Information through the LivePictur Site or the LivePictur Service, in which case LivePictur may not be able to provide certain services to you. If you do not agree with our Privacy Policy or Terms of Service, please delete your account, uninstall the LivePictur mobile application and discontinue use of the LivePictur Service; your continued usage of the LivePictur Service will signify your assent to and acceptance of our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

We are not fans of advertising. LivePictur is currently ad-free and we hope to keep it that way forever. We have no intention to introduce advertisement into the product, but if we ever do, will update this section.
LivePictur uses commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to LivePictur and you do so at your own risk. Using unsecured wifi or other unprotected networks to submit messages through the LivePictur Service is never recommended. Once we receive your transmission of information, LivePictur makes commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of our systems. However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards. If LivePictur learns of a security systems breach, then we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. LivePictur may post a notice on the LivePictur Site or through the LivePictur Service if a security breach occurs.

For that reason, LivePictur does not knowingly collect or maintain Personally Identifiable Information or non-personally-identifiable information on the LivePictur Site or LivePictur Service from persons under 16 years of age, and no part of the LivePictur Service is directed to or intended to be used by persons under 16. If you are under 16 years of age, then please do not use the LivePictur Service or access the LivePictur Site at any time or in any manner. If LivePictur learns that Personally Identifiable Information of persons under 16 years of age has been collected on the LivePictur Site or LivePictur Service, then LivePictur may deactivate the account and/or make the status submissions inaccessible. And always, think about the children!

In the event that LivePictur is acquired by or merged with a third party entity, we reserve the right to transfer or assign the information we have collected from our users as part of such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control. In the (hopefully) unlikely event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of laws or equitable principles affecting creditors' rights generally, we may not be able to control how your personal information is treated, transferred, or used.
