What information we collect and why we collect it.

How we use that information.

The choices we offer and information security


We’ve tried to keep it as simple as possible, but if you’re not familiar with technical terms, then read about these key terms trhough online rescources. Your privacy matters so whether you are new to Awoken or a long-time user, please do take the time to get to know our practices – and if you have any questions consult this page.

Information we collect

We collect information to provide better services to all of our users - both through software or software libraries provided by third party vendors and with our own host servers.

We collect information in two ways:.

Information you give us. For example, when you make a cloud account and send your journal entries for backup purposes.

Information we get from your use of our services. We may use third party vendors to store, handle and research anonimized user data like sessions, active user numbers, engagement stats, age-guesses, approximate geographical countries, and app-events . Such services may come from Google Analytics, Flurry or any other party that offers usability insights.

How we use information we collect

We use the information we collect from all of our services to provide, maintain, protect and improve them, to develop new ones, and to protect the Awoken Dream Services and our users.

We use information collected from usability analytics and other technologies, to improve your user experience and the overall quality of our services.

Likewise, we may use the information from you cloud account and journal entries to improve the service and perform research on general patterns throughtout these entries. The legal owners of the Awoken Dream Services and their representatives retain the right to analyze this data and the legal owners of the Awoken Dream Services may transfer this right to representatives. If interesting patterns of data emerge, they may be shared with the public, but no single / collection of journal entries will be will be published by the owner(s) Awoken Dream Services or their representatives without explicit consent from their direct author.

Transparency and choice

Using the dream cloud and creating a cloud account is entriely optional and it provides a beneficial service in the form of backups. But there must always be a mindfulness about who you share your data with and if the owner(s) Awoken Dream Services or their representatives are abusing their rights, I personally , as the original other of this project (Andreas Helveg Rudolph) implore people to reconsider their options.

Control who you share information with.

For legal reasons

We will only share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of the service if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:

We may share aggregated, non-personally identifiable information publicly and with our partners – like publishers, advertisers or connected sites. For example, we may share information publicly to show trends about the general use of our services.

If the owner(s) Awoken Dream Services or their representatives is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, we will continue to ensure the confidentiality of any personal information and give affected users notice before personal information is transferred or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

Information security

We work hard to protect the Awoken Dream Services and our users from unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of information we hold. In particular:

We are using the OAuth protocol for transfering data connected to/from the cloud account.

We use respected cloud storage services to store cloud account data. Their resiliance to compromise is safeguarded by their unified goal to provide a reliable and trusted service.

We restrict access to personal information to any employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.

Application

Our Privacy Policy does not apply to services offered by other companies or individuals, including products or sites that may be displayed to you in ads

Enforcement

We regularly review our compliance with our Privacy Policy. We also adhere to several self regulatory frameworks. When we receive formal written complaints, we will contact the person who made the complaint to follow up. We work with the appropriate regulatory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding the transfer of personal data that we cannot resolve with our users directly.

Changes

Our Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Policy without your notice. We will post any privacy policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice (including, for certain services, email notification of privacy policy changes).
