LazyChat.io (together with its affiliated companies – “LazyChat”, “we”, “our” or “us”) puts great efforts in making sure that the personal data processed by us is safe and used properly, and that our data practices are properly communicated to our customers, users and prospects.

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, store, use, and disclose personal data relating to our “Customers” – LazyChat’s business customers and users of the LazyChat Revenue Intelligence services (“Services”), participants at our events, any other prospective customers or partners, and any individuals who visit or otherwise interact with any of our applications and web pages (such as LazyChat.io, or call login pages generated through our Services), online ads, content, social media profiles, emails or communications under our control (collectively, “Sites”).

You are not legally required to provide us with any personal data. If you do not wish to provide us with your personal data, or to have it processed by us or any of our Service Providers (defined below), please do not provide it to us and avoid any interaction with us or with our applications, or use of our Services. If you are a user of the Services on behalf of any of our business customers, we suggest that you contact your account administrator with any questions.

By accessing our website, using the service, integrating with our systems, or by otherwise providing us with your personally identifying information, you are accepting the practices and policies described in the Privacy Policy. Our Privacy Policy may change from time to time, and any changes will be posted on this page, and if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice. If you have questions or concerns regarding the Privacy Policy, you should first contact us at support@lazychat.io.

We may ask you to provide us, or third parties may provide us with certain Personal Information that can be used to contact or identify you. Personal Information may include, but is not limited to, your name, postal address, email address, and contact number. We collect Personal Information for the purpose of providing the Services, identifying and communicating with you about the Services, responding to your requests/inquiries, servicing your purchase orders, improving our Services, and communicating with you about our Services, discounts, and promotions.

This Log Data may include information such as your computer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Services that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, and other statistics. In addition, we use third-party services such as Google Analytics that collect, monitor, and analyze this type of information in order to increase our Services’ functionality. These third-party service providers have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information. When you access the Services by or through a mobile device, we collect certain information automatically, including the type of mobile device you use, your mobile device’s unique device ID, the IP address of your mobile device, your mobile operating system, the type of mobile Internet browser you use, and your general location information as described further below.
