Thank you for visiting Flaire. This Privacy Policy describes the personal data handling policies of Flaire as a data controller, including the following:
Personal Data We Collect or Process
The Services capture some information about you automatically utilizing background local storage and session storage technologies (“Cookies”) in order to improve the user experience and to provide analytics services. Cookies are small files or other pieces of data which are downloaded or stored on your computer or other device, that can be tied to information about your use of the Services (including certain third party services and features offered as part of our website). Examples of information of this type are your IP address, the browser you are using, the operating system you are using, the pages on the website that you visit and details of your transaction activity, such as the amount, date and time for each transaction. When we use Cookies, we may use “session” Cookies that last until you close your browser or “persistent” cookies that last until you or your browser delete them. You may change your browser setting to decline the use of Cookies.
We also collect information that you provide to us voluntarily.
We do not knowingly collect information from users of our Services under the age of 18 and/or their internet usage, and such persons are not authorized to use the Services. If we obtain actual knowledge that a user is under 18, we will take steps to remove that user's personal information from our databases. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 years old. You also represent, by accessing or using the Services, that you are of legal age to enter into legal agreements, or if you are not, that you have obtained your parent’s or legal guardian’s consent to accept the terms in this Privacy Policy.
How We Use the Data
We use the personal data we collect to respond to your inquiries, provide or enhance the Services, to understand more about you and your demographic to provide more meaningful interactions for you from your use of the app, perform our contractual obligations, provide updates and other important information related to your activity on and with the Services, inform you of new services or changes in Services, administer the Services, fill employment positions, enter into contracts for services, to fulfill legal obligations we have to governmental authorities or other third parties, and for other legitimate business purposes. You will have the opportunity to opt out of any electronic marketing communications you may receive from us.
With Whom We Share Personal Data
Flaire’s Services facilitate questions, communications, and recommendations between fellow users. Accordingly, information you provide to Flaire will be visible to other users of the Flaire app.
Flaire is a provider of services headquartered in the United States, and as such may need to share information with internal personnel and affiliates located in different geographic locations in order to perform our Services. We may also share your personal data (within or outside your country of residence) with our professional advisors, our technology providers and other third parties who perform services on our behalf.
We may disclose information (within or outside your country of residence) if we have a good faith belief that disclosure is necessary by law or the legal process, to protect and defend our or others’ interests or property, or to enforce agreements you enter into with us.
Flaire may disclose any information we have about you (including your identity) if we determine that such disclosure is necessary in connection with any investigation or complaint regarding your use of the Services, or to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) Flaire’s rights or property, or the rights or property of visitors to or users of the Services. Flaire reserves the right at all times to disclose any information that Flaire deems necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request. Flaire also may disclose your information when Flaire determines that applicable law requires or permits such disclosure, including exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection purposes.
Your information may be transferred to another company (within or outside your country of residence) in connection with a merger or in the event that our business is acquired in whole or part by another company.
We may share aggregated and de-identified information with third parties (within or outside your country of residence) for analytical, research or other similar purposes.
Flaire may obtain your written consent from time to time in electronic form by using online agreements or other acknowledgements on the Services, including for any other contemplated uses of your personal data not addressed in this Privacy Policy. Please read all online agreements carefully before accepting them.
Grounds for Using Your Personal Data
We rely on the following legal grounds to process your personal information:
Consent. Some uses of your personal data as described in this Privacy Policy are subject to your consent, such as marketing email communications. To withdraw your consent, please contact us at [email protected] You may also refrain from providing, or withdraw, your consent for Cookies via your browser and mobile settings.
Performance of a contract. We may need to collect and use your personal information to enter into a contract with you and to perform Services that you request.
Legitimate Interests. We may use your personal information for our legitimate interests to provide our Services and to improve our Services and the content contained thereon. We may use technical information as described in this Privacy Policy and use personal information for our marketing purposes consistent with our legitimate interests and any choices that we offer or consents that may be required under applicable law.
Storage and Protection of Your Personal Data
We retain the personal data we collect for so long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the data was collected and to perform our contractual and legal obligations. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, we store email addresses collected from the website until the user requests to be unsubscribed, and we store account information on the app until the user requests to be deleted or removes themselves through any self-service tools offered to the user.
We take reasonable administrative, physical and technical precautions to protect your personal data. This includes, when required or as we deem appropriate and feasible under the circumstances, encryption and written commitments from third parties that may have access to your data that they will protect the data with safeguards that are substantially equivalent to those used by Flaire.
No Internet or e-mail transmission is ever fully secure or error free, however. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security of your data, and we are not responsible for processes and networks that we do not control. Users assume the risk of security breaches and the consequences resulting from them. Please be careful in deciding what information you send to us via email or over the Internet.
Your Rights, Choices and Disclosures
You may opt out of receiving electronic marketing communications from us by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link on the communication or contacting us at [email protected] Some non-marketing communications may not be subject to a general opt-out, such as communications about transactions, disclosures to comply with legal requirements, software updates and other support-related information.

Subject to local law, you may have additional rights under the laws of your jurisdiction regarding your personal data, such as the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
