Introduction
Pearly LLC d/b/a “Catch” (“Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”) understands that privacy and confidentiality are of importance to our members, applicants, attendees, and other users (collectively, “you,” “your,” or “Users”).
To that end, the policy set forth below (the “Privacy Policy”) describes our information practices when you use our applications (“App(s)”),”), any websites operated by us that link to this Privacy Policy (“Sites”), and certain features thereof, or related services, including those related to attending events which are advertised, featured, hosted or otherwise disseminated through the Apps or Sites (collectively, “Service(s)”).
1. WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Information You Provide in Connection with our Site. To use our App, you must provide us with certain information to verify your identity. Some of the information that you provide may be considered “special” or “sensitive” in certain jurisdictions. By choosing to provide this information, you consent to our processing of it. Any information you provide may be viewable by other users of the Service. If you communicate with other users within the Service, you provide us with the consent of your conversation.

Contents of App messages unless we are the intended recipient of the communication. • Information collected and analyzed concerning your sexual orientation.
Information We Automatically Collect. In addition to the information you provide, certain information will be automatically collected as you use the Service, including, but not limited to, the operation system used by your device, your device type and ID, your IP address, how and how often you interact with other users and your access times. This information may be collected via several technologies, including cookies, web beacons, clear GIFs, canvas fingerprinting and other means, such as Google Remarketing and Facebook Pixel. You can control cookies in your browser to enable or disable them.
Information Other Users Provide. In addition to the information that you choose to provide to us, other users may provide information about you as they use the Service if, for instance, they contact us about you, or you are a contact in their phone.
Information We Get from Third Parties. We may collect personal information and non-personal information about you from third parties.
Surveys. From time to time, we may send you surveys from us or brand recognition surveys on behalf of advertisers. If you participate in these surveys, we will have access to your survey responses.
No Financial Information. We accept payment through third party services such as Apple and Stripe, we will not ask for your credit card information and your financial details are, and will remain, secured by and subject to the applicable third party’s security and privacy policies.
2. HOW WE USE INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We may use or disclose the personal information we collect for one or more of the following purposes:
To provide you with our Service, which includes:
Creating, maintaining, customizing, and securing your account with us.
Providing customer support and responding to your inquiries, including investigating, and addressing your concerns, and monitoring and improving our responses.
Processing your requests, purchases, transactions, and payments.
Verifying customer information.
Providing advertising or marketing services to you.
To fulfill or meet the reason you provided the information. For example, if you share your name and contact information to ask a question about our products or services, we will use that personal information to respond to your inquiry.
To detect security incidents, protect against fraudulent or other criminal activity, debug, and repair errors, and help maintain the safety, security, and integrity of our App, Site, products, and services, databases and other technology assets, and business.
To personalize your App experience and to deliver content and product and service offerings relevant to your interests, including targeted offers and ads through our App, third party sites, and via email or text message (with your consent, where required by law).

3. HOW WE SHARE INFORMATION
Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, we do not share personal information with companies, organizations, and individuals outside of the Company unless one of the following circumstances applies:
Information Shared with Other Users. When you register as a user of the Service and create your profile, your App profile will be viewable by other users of the Service. Such other users will be able to view information you have provided to us directly or through Instagram, such as:
Your Instagram username,
Photos you upload,
Your Name,
Your age,
City of residence
Hometown
Information you have in common with the person viewing your profile, such as mutually followed Instagram accounts.
In addition, a mutual “like” by you and other users enables you to chat with that person through the Service. Should you engage in a conversation through a Service via text chat, status post or video chat, that user with whom you are communicating will see the content of that interaction. However, the Instagram information automatically available to users of the App will not exceed the information otherwise accessible through your Instagram profile. Therefore, a “private” Instagram user profile will still be private; only the content you choose to share with users will be visible.
Hosted Events. Certain users of our platform may, upon approval from us, organize hosted events. If you attend one of these hosted events, we may share limited information about you with the user who hosted the event. This limited information may include your name, email address, age, gender preference, Instagram, and employment.
Service Providers. We share your information with our third-party service providers and any subcontractors as required to offer you the Service. The service providers we use help to:
Run, operate, and maintain our Services through third-party platforms and software tools;
Perform content moderation and crash analytics;
Run email and mobile messaging campaigns;
Perform marketing analytics;
Provide measurement services and targeted ads;
Administer live events and promotions, including registering attendees managing check-in and attendance, verifying eligibility and other relevant matters;
Provide payment attribution; and
Provide technical and customer support.
Some external service providers may also collect information directly from you (for example, a payment processor may request your billing and financial information) in accordance with their own privacy policy. These external service providers do not share your financial information, like credit card number, with us, but may share limited information with us related to your purchase, like your zip code.
Third Party Marketing and Advertising Organizations. With respect to website cookies, we share your information with third-party marketing and advertising partners to market our services on our Sites and other websites that you may visit.
For legal reasons. We will share personal information with companies, organizations, or individuals outside of the Company if we have a good faith belief that access, user, preservation or disclosure of the information is necessary to:
Meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request;
Enforce or apply our terms and conditions and other agreements;
Detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues; or
Protect against harm to the rights, reputation, property or safety of the Company, our clients, our consumers, or the public as required or permitted by law.
Non-personal information. We may share non-personal information (in aggregated and/or on-aggregated form) publicly and/or with our partners, like publishers, advertisers or connected sites. For example, we any share information about campaign performance with advertisers.
4. COOKIES AND “DO NOT TRACK”
To make our Sites and services work properly, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, contents of your shopping cart, or other preferences) over a period, so you do not have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.
You may wish to restrict the use of cookies. Please be aware that some features of our Sites may not function correctly if you disable cookies. Most modern browsers allow you to change your cookie settings. You can usually find these settings in the options or preferences menu of your browser.
Personalized Advertising. We may send cookies to your browser to support behavioral targeted advertising. Through it, we may collect data about websites visited, content viewed, searches on other websites, ad interaction, interaction with advertiser websites and other click and browsing behavior.
You can opt out of our in-app mobile online behavioral advertising by changing the settings on your mobile device. On Apple devices, the setting may be under Settings-Privacy-Advertising-Limit Ad Tracking. On Android devices, the setting may be under Settings-Account & Sync-Google-Ads-Opt Out of Interest Based Ads.
Advertisers and third-party ad networks may also participate in our ad network and may also utilize cookies to deliver advertisements and monitor the performance of such advertisements. Many third-party ad networks have agreed to provide an “opt out” mechanism for their ad cookies. The collection of information through cookies by such third parties will be governed by their own privacy policies and practices, over which we have no control.
You can learn more about how to control advertising cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Out-Out link, the DAA’s Consumer Opt-Out link for browsers, or the DAA’s opt-out link for mobile devices. Please note that electing to opt-out will not stop advertising from appearing in your browser or applications and may make the ads you see less relevant to your interests.
Google Analytics. We may use Google Analytics. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve the Sites. We do not combine the information collected using Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy for more information. You may also choose to download the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
“Do Not Track.” Some browsers provide you with a way to signal that you do not want your browsing activity to be tracked. We may not currently respond to all Do Not Track (“DNT”) or similar signals, as we are awaiting consensus from the Internet policy and legal community on the meaning of DNT and the best way to respond to these signals.
5. AGE POLICY
Must be of Age. We restrict our Services to people who are 18 years of age or older. Only applicants 18 and over will be considered for acceptance, and we are not liable should an applicant misrepresent their age in their application. Should we become aware of a user who is not at least 18 years of age, we will immediately remove that user from our Service. We do not knowingly collect, maintain, or use information from children under the age of 18. If you become aware that a child under 18 has provided us with personal information, please contact us. If we become aware that a child under 18 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information.
6. INFORMATION SECURITY AND RETENTION
Information Security. We have security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of personal information under our control. Please be advised that, although we take reasonable technological precautions to protect your data, no website, application, or data transmission can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that your information will be secure. Any transmission of data at or through our website, Services or Apps is at your own risk.
Retention. We retain information from or about you for so long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. When the information is no longer necessary for these purposes, we delete it or keep it in a form that does not identify you, unless we are required by law to keep this information for a longer period. When determining the retention period, we take into account various criteria, such as the nature and length of our relationship with you, possible re-enrollment with our Service, the impact on the services we provide to you if we delete some information from or about you, mandatory retention periods provided by law and the statute of limitations.
7. CHANGE OF CONTROL
If we enter discussions to sell, merge, or otherwise reorganize our business, we reserve the right to transfer and disclose all data (including personal and non-personal user information) to prospective and/or actual purchasers or investors. We will require that such purchasers/investors treat the transferred data as described in the Privacy Policy that exists prior to the change unless and until you consent to a new Privacy Policy.
8. PRIVACY POLICY CHANGES
We reserve the right to change our Privacy Policy at any time without notice. However, these changes will not reduce your privacy on a retrospective basis. We will post any Privacy Policy changes on this page, and it is your responsibility to check this page for updates.

10. PRIVACY RIGHTS AND ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS
Third Party Marketing. If you are a California resident, California’s “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of a Service that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to: info@catchfordoglovers.com.
Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights. Residents of California have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months.

Our business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, sharing, or disclosing that personal information, and the categories of personal information disclosed for such purpose(s). • The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.

The categories of personal information we have sold, if any, about you and the categories of third parties to whom your personal information was sold, by category or categories of personal information for each third party to whom the personal information was sold.
Request for Deletion. California residents have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see “Exercising Your Rights,” below), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.
Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information. Residents of California have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of their personal information. We do not sell your personal information. However, we may use your personal information to provide personalized or targeted advertising. In such circumstances, you have the right to direct us not to share your personal information for such purposes.
Limiting the Use of Sensitive Personal Information. Residents of California have the right to direct us to sue or disclose sensitive personal information only for providing goods or services, or as otherwise minimally permitted under applicable law. However, we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for any purpose other than providing our goods or services to you, or as otherwise minimally permitted.
Right to Equal Service and Price. California residents have the right to receive equal service and price from us, even if you exercise a privacy right.
Exercising Your Rights. To exercise any rights described above, please email us at: info@catchfordoglovers.com. Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a request related to your personal information.
Verification Process for Exercising Rights. To protect our consumers’ privacy, we verify privacy rights requests to ensure that only you (or your authorized agent) can exercise rights pertaining to your personal information. As part of the verification process, we may request you to submit additional information.
If you are an authorized agent wishing to exercise rights on behalf of a state resident, please contact us using the email address above and provide us with a copy of the consumer’s written authorization designating you as their agent. We may need to verify your identity and place of residence before completing your rights request.
We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
Appeal Process. If we do not decide to act in response to your request to exercise a right, we will provide a timely response detailing the reasons for not acting and, depending on the circumstances, any rights that you may have to appeal against our decision.
Response Timing and Format. We will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) business days. Then, we will endeavor to respond to the request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), such as to verify your identity, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response electronically.
Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made the decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
