MomsinLA Inc. (Effective June 4 2022)
This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of information that we receive through our services, which include our Site and our mobile device application (“App”) (together, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party websites, services or applications, even if they are accessible through our Services. Unless we define a term in this Privacy Policy, all capitalized terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Service.
All individuals whose responsibilities include the processing of personal information on our behalf are expected to protect that data by adherence to this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy is intended to meet requirements globally, including those in North America, Europe, APAC, and other jurisdictions.
1.Information Collected or Received from You. Our primary goals in collecting information are to provide and improve our Services, to administer your use of the Services (including your Account, if you are an Account holder), and to enable you to enjoy and easily navigate our Services.
(a) Account Information. If you create an Account, we’ll collect certain information that can be used to identify you, such as your name, email address, password, gender, connection status, postal address and phone number. If you create an Account using your login credentials from one of your Social Network Services (“SNS”) Accounts, we’ll be able to access and collect your name and email address and other information (such as gender and date of birth) that your privacy settings and/or the privacy policy on the SNS Account permit us to access. You may also choose to share anonymous data (such as crash statistics) with us.
(b) Transaction Details. If you make a transaction using the Service, we record the status of the transaction, information about the recipients, your memo (which is not visible to third parties), amount, and additional technical details. We also store the transaction ID that can be used as proof that a transaction was made.
(c) Information Collected From Blogs, Newsletters & Posts. We may offer publicly accessible pages, blogs, private messages, or community forums (“Forums”). You should be aware that, when you disclose information about yourself in these Forums, our Site and/or third party sites will collect the information you provide in such submissions, including any personal information. If you choose to submit content to any public area of the Site, such content will be considered “public” and will not be subject to the privacy protections set forth herein.
(d) Automatic Data Collection Including Information Collected Using Cookies and other Web Technologies. Like many website owners and operators, we use automated data collection tools such as Cookies and Web Beacons (defined below) to collect certain information through our Services or other methods of analysis, such as your Internet protocol (IP) address, cookie identifiers, mobile carrier, mobile advertising identifiers, MAC address, IMEI and other device identifiers that are automatically assigned to your computer or device when you access the Internet, browser type and language, geo-location information, hardware type, operating system, Internet service provider, pages that you visit before and after using the Services, the date and time of your visit, the amount of time you spend on each page, information about the links you click and pages you view within the Services, and other actions taken through use of the Services such as preferences.
(i) “Cookies” are small text files that are placed on your device by a web server when you access our Services. We may use both session Cookies and persistent Cookies to identify that you’ve logged in to the Services and to tell us how and when you interact with our Services. We may also use Cookies to monitor aggregate usage and web traffic routing on our Services and to customize and improve our Services. Unlike persistent Cookies, session Cookies are deleted when you log off from the Services and close your browser. Although most browsers automatically accept Cookies, you can change your browser options to stop automatically accepting Cookies or to prompt you before accepting Cookies. Please note, however, that if you don’t accept Cookies, you may not be able to access all portions or features of the Services. Some third party service providers that we engage (including third party advertisers) may also place their own Cookies on your device. Note that this Privacy Policy covers only our use of Cookies and does not include use of Cookies by such third parties.
(ii) “Web Beacons” (also known as web bugs, pixel tags or clear GIFs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that may be included on our Services for several purposes, including to deliver or communicate with Cookies, to track and measure the performance of our Services, to monitor how many visitors view our Services, and to monitor the effectiveness of our advertising. Unlike Cookies, which are stored on the device, Web Beacons are typically embedded invisibly on web pages, in an advertisement or in an e-mail.
(iii) “Log Data” means certain information about how a person uses our Services, including both Account holders and non-Account holders. Log Data may include information such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, operating system, the web page that you were visiting before accessing our Services, the pages or features of our Services browsed and the time spent on those pages or features, search terms, the links on our Services that were clicked on and other statistics. We use Log Data to administer the Services, and we analyze (and may engage third parties to analyze) Log Data to improve, customize and enhance our Services by expanding their features and functionality and tailoring them to your needs and preferences. We may use your IP address to generate aggregate, non-identifying information about how our Services are used.
(iv) Our uses of such these technologies fall into the following general categories:
• Operationally Necessary. We may use Cookies, Web Beacons, or other similar technologies that are necessary to the operation of our Sites, Services, Apps, and tools. This includes technologies that allow you access to our Sites, Services, Apps, and tools; that are required to identify irregular site behavior, prevent fraudulent activity and improve security; or that allow you to make use of our functions such as shopping-carts, saved search, or similar functions;
• Performance Related. We may use Cookies, Web Beacons, or other similar technologies to assess the performance of our Sites, Apps, Services, and tools, including as part of our analytic practices to help us understand how our visitors use our Sites, determine if you have interacted with our messaging, determine whether you have viewed an item or link, or to improve our Site content, Apps, Services, or tools;
• Functionality Related. We may use Cookies, Web Beacons, or other similar technologies that allow us to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing or using our Sites, Services, Apps, or tools. This may include identifying you when you sign into our Sites or keeping track of your specified preferences, interests, or past items viewed so that we may enhance the presentation of content on our Sites;
• Advertising or Targeting Related. We may use first party or third party Cookies and Web Beacons to deliver content, including ads relevant to your interests, on our Sites or on third party sites.

(e) Location Information. When you use our Services, we may collect and store information about your location by converting your IP address into a rough geo-location or by accessing your device’s GPS coordinates or coarse location if you enable location services on your device. We may use location information to improve and personalize our Services for you. If you do not want us to collect location information, you may disable that feature on your device.
(f)Information from Other Sources. We may receive information about you from other sources, including through third party services and organizations to supplement information provided by you. For example, if you access our Services through a third party application, such as an App Store or SNS, we may collect information about you from that third party application that you have made public via your privacy settings. Information we collect through App Stores or SNS accounts may include your name, your SNS user identification number, your SNS user name, location, sex, birth date, email, profile picture, and your contacts on the SNS. This supplemental information allows us to verify information that you have provided to us and to enhance our ability to provide you with information about our business, products, and Services.
