1. Details We Gather

Access Logs

When you browse the Profitpiller platform, our servers may automatically capture standard data sent by your internet browser. This may include your system’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser name and version, pages visited, timestamps of your visit, duration spent on each page, and additional technical details.

Device Information

We may also gather information related to the device you utilize to access our platform. This might involve the device category, operating system, unique identifiers, configuration settings, and location data. The exact data collected depends on the specific preferences and permissions set on your device and software. For further insight, we suggest reviewing the privacy practices of your device or software provider to understand the data they share with us.

User Information

We may request personal details such as your:

• Email address

To accurately match you with appropriate surveys, we might also collect further demographic data, such as your zip code, gender identity, marital status, educational background, job-related details, and non-identifiable household data including number of members, total income, age brackets, etc.

2. Legal Foundations for Data Handling

At Profitpiller, we manage your personal data lawfully, ethically, and with full transparency. We collect and utilize your data only when we have valid legal grounds to do so.

The legal basis for processing your data depends on the services you engage with and the manner in which you interact with them. This means we collect and use your data only when:

• it is essential to fulfill an agreement you are part of, or to take steps at your request prior to entering into such an agreement (for example, when we deliver a service you’ve requested);
• it serves a legitimate business purpose (that is not outweighed by your privacy rights), such as conducting research and innovation, marketing our offerings, or defending our legal claims and interests;
• you have explicitly authorized us to do so for a defined reason (for instance, agreeing to receive our newsletters); or
• we are required to process your data in order to meet a legal obligation.

If you provide consent for us to use your data for a particular reason, you may withdraw that permission at any time (though this will not affect any processing carried out prior to your withdrawal).

We do not retain personal data longer than needed. While in our possession, your data is safeguarded using commercially reasonable measures to prevent loss, theft, unauthorized access, exposure, duplication, misuse, or alteration. However, please be aware that no digital transmission or storage method is completely secure, and we cannot promise absolute data protection.

When required, we may retain your personal data to meet legal obligations or protect your vital interests—or those of another person. If your account is closed—either by you or Profitpiller—we reserve the right to remove or anonymize your data in accordance with relevant data privacy laws to ensure continued protection of your information.

3. Gathering and Utilization of Data

Profitpiller may gather, retain, utilize, and share information for the purposes listed below. Personal data will not be processed in a way that contradicts these stated intentions:

• to connect you with relevant surveys based on your demographic profile and the targeting requirements of the surveys;
• to allow you to tailor or personalize your interaction with our platform;
• to provide you with access to our website, related mobile applications, and linked social media channels;
• to reach out and correspond with you effectively;
• to support internal documentation and general administrative functions;
• to perform analytics, conduct market research, and support business enhancement activities, including the maintenance and refinement of our website, apps, and online presence;
• to promote and advertise, including sending you marketing content regarding our services and offerings, as well as third-party products we believe may interest you;

4. Sharing of Personal Information with External Parties

Profitpiller may share personal data with the following entities:

• external service partners for the purpose of enabling them to perform their functions, which may include (but is not limited to) IT solution providers, cloud storage services, hosting and server infrastructure, advertising networks, analytics tools, error monitoring systems, debt recovery services, technical support vendors, marketing or promotional agencies, professional consultants, and payment processing platforms;
• our staff members, independent contractors, and affiliated entities;
• sponsors or organizers of any contests or giveaways we conduct;
• third-party associates, including agents or subcontractors, who support us in delivering content, products, services, or promotional communication to you;

5. Cross-Border Transfers of Personal Data

The personal information collected by Profitpiller may be stored and processed in the United States or in any other country where we, our affiliates, partners, or external service providers operate facilities. By sharing your personal data with us, you agree to the transfer and disclosure of that data to entities in other countries.

For transfers of personal information from the European Economic Area (EEA) to locations outside the EEA, we will ensure the implementation of suitable protective measures. These may include the use of standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, binding corporate rules, or other lawful data transfer mechanisms.

In cases where we transmit personal data from jurisdictions outside the EEA to other international regions, you acknowledge that third-party recipients in those regions may not be governed by data protection regulations equivalent to those in your country. This means there may be certain risks involved, especially if such third parties engage in actions that would violate our local data privacy laws, potentially limiting your ability to pursue legal remedies under our jurisdiction’s privacy framework.
