Certain data is collected automatically through your device or browser, such as your screen resolution, operating system, device manufacturer and model, language, default country setting, Internet browser type and version, and wireless carrier. We use this data to ensure that the App functions properly and understand how it is used.

Through your use of the App
When you download and use the App, we will collect data about your use of the App, such as the version of the App you are using, the games and other features used, and the dates and times of your interactions with the App. We also collect data about your brushing, such as time spent brushing, frequency of brushing, areas of the mouth brushed, and position of the toothbrush.

We also use the data to improve the App and to design new features and games.

Using tracking technologies
We may use tracking technologies to recognize you as you use the App, so that we can understand how the App is used and optimize user engagement. We may also use pixel tags (also known as web beacons and clear GIFs) in the emails we send, to track recipients’ actions and response rates.
IP Address
We collect your IP address, which is automatically assigned to your device by your Internet service provider. An IP address may be identified and logged when you access the App, along with the time of the visit. We use IP addresses for purposes such as calculating usage levels, diagnosing problems, and administering the App. We also derive your approximate location from your IP address.

Uses and Disclosures of Other Data

We may use and disclose Other Data for any purpose, except where we are prohibited from doing so under applicable law. In some instances, we may combine Other Data with Personal Data. If we do, we will treat the combined data as Personal Data as long as it is combined.

SECURITY

We seek to use reasonable organizational, technical, and administrative measures to protect Personal Data within our respective organizations. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us in accordance with the “Contacting Us” section below.

ACCESS

You may contact Colgate using the form under “Contacting Colgate,” below, and Kolibree at support@kolibree.com if you would like to request to review, correct, update, suppress, restrict, or delete Personal Data that you have previously provided to us, or if you would like to request to receive an electronic copy of your Personal Data for purposes of transmitting it to another company (to the extent this right to data portability is provided to you by applicable law). We will each respond to your request consistent with applicable law.

In your request, please make clear what Personal Data you would like to have changed. For your protection, we may only implement requests with respect to the Personal Data associated with the particular email address that you use to send us your request, and we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request.

Please note that we may need to retain certain data for recordkeeping purposes and/or to complete any transactions that you began prior to requesting a change or deletion.

RETENTION PERIOD

We retain Personal Data for as long as needed or permitted in light of the purpose(s) for which it was obtained and consistent with applicable law.

The criteria used to determine our retention periods include:

The length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide the App to you (for example, for as long as you have an account with us or keep using the App);
Whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject (for example, certain laws require us to keep transaction records for a certain period of time before we can delete them); or
Whether retention is advisable in light of Colgate’s or Kolibree’s legal position (such as in regard to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation, or regulatory investigations).

THIRD PARTY SERVICES

This Privacy Policy does not address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, data, or other practices of any third parties, including any third party operating any website or service to which the App links.

OUR COLLECTION OF DATA FROM CHILDREN

When a child uses the App, we collect data about the child’s device (such as platform, device type, wireless carrier, operating system, language, and country), as well as the child’s city and region and the version of the App that he or she is using. We use this data to understand how the App is used and to improve it.

If a child’s parent or guardian provides consent, we collect the child’s first name and age, his or her brushing data (frequency, duration, areas of the mouth brushed, etc.), and the data described above, under “Other Data.” We use this data for the purposes described above, under “Use of Personal Data” and “Disclosure of Personal Data.”

A child may allow the App to take his or her photo, which we do not collect. The photo remains on the child’s device.

A parent or guardian may provide his or her email address and a password in order to create an account and then be able to view the brushing behavior of a child who uses the App on the same device as the parent or guardian.

If you would like to review the Personal Data we have collected from your child, or if you would like to ask us to make no further use of, or delete, the Personal Data we have collected from your child, please contact us as described in the “Contacting Colgate” and “Contacting Kolibree” sections, below. In your request, please include your name and email address, and specify the action you would like us to take. For your child’s protection, we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request.

JURISDICTION AND CROSS-BORDER TRANSFER

Your Personal Data may be stored and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers, and, by using the App, you understand that your data will be transferred to countries outside of your country of residence, including the United States, which may have data protection rules that are different from those of your country. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies, or security authorities in those other countries may be entitled to access your Personal Data.
