Marscode Privacy Policy

Last updated: 26 April 2024

Introduction

This privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") applies to the personal information that Marscode processes in connection with Marscode apps, plugins, websites, software and related services (the “Platform”), that link to or reference this Privacy Policy.

Data Controller: The Platform is provided and controlled by SPRING (SG) PTE. LTD., with its registered address in Singapore (“we”or “us”). If you have any questions about how we use your personal data, please contact feedback@marscode.com.

When you deploy your apps, websites or software (your “Software”) through Marscode**,** you act as an independent data controller of the personal data that you may collect, use and otherwise process through your Software (the “Developer Controlled Data”). Please take note that Marscode does not provide services assisting the management of Developer Controller Data, and does not act as your data processor. If such services are required, please engage your own service provider.

What Information We Collect

We collect your information in three ways: Information You Provide, Automatically Collected Information, and Information From Other Sources. More detail is provided below.

Information You Provide

  • Profile Information. We collect information that you provide when you set up an account, such as your username, email address and/or telephone number, and password. You can add other information to your profile, such as a bio or a profile photo.
  • User Content. When you interact with the Platform, we may collect code, text, photographs, files, feedback, reviews, chat history, or any other content that you may upload to the Platform, and the associated metadata (such as when, where, and by whom the content was created).
  • Surveys, Research, and Promotions. We collect information you provide if you choose to participate in a survey, research, promotion, contest, marketing campaign, or event conducted or sponsored by us.

Automatically Collected Information

  • Technical Information. We collect certain device and network connection information when you access the Platform. This information includes your device model, operating system, keystroke patterns or rhythms, IP address, and system language. We also collect service-related, diagnostic, and performance information, including crash reports and performance logs. We automatically assign you a device ID and user ID. Where you log-in from multiple devices, we use information such as your device ID and user ID to identify your activity across devices to give you a seamless log-in experience and for security purposes.
  • Usage Information. We collect information about how you engage with the Platform, including information about the duration and frequency of your use and your settings.

  • Cookies. We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and provide the Platform. We only use cookies and similar tracking technologies that we set and use directly (“first-party”), that are necessary to provide you with the Platform and the services that you have requested (where applicable). For example, we use them for security and authentication purposes and to maintain your logged-in status. As we only use first-party tracking technologies that are essential for us to provide you with the Platform and the requested services, you are unable to decline them through the Platform.
