POLICY

Welcome to Mumbler (italian name Sottovoce), your trusted social platform. At Mumbler, we prioritize the privacy and security of our users. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your data while using our service.

Introduction

Mumbler, hereinafter referred to as the "Service," is committed to maintaining the privacy of its users. In this Privacy Policy, we detail the procedures regarding the collection, utilization, and safeguarding of data.

How data is stored

While we do not sell your personal information, it may be necessary to share certain data with third-party services to ensure the best possible service experience for you. To ensure accessibility and functionality of the service, the following data is stored:

Content Uploaded by Users: This includes any content or information shared by users while using the Service.

Usernames: The usernames associated with each user account.

Gender Information: Data pertaining to the gender of users.

Email Addresses: The email addresses used for user logins.

Posts: Any posts or messages shared within the app.

In-App Notifications: Information regarding notifications received by individual users.

All of the aforementioned data is stored in a database, specifically a Firebase database.Firebase is a service provided by Google that offers various tools and infrastructure for app development, including databases for storing and syncing data in real-time.It's important to note that the information stored in the database is monitored by the service provider to maintain safety and security on the platform.

Additionally, the service provider reserves the right to modify or update this data as needed.We are committed to ensuring that your personal information is handled securely and responsibly.

Your Password

As service providers, it's important to note that we do not have access to user passwords. With Firebase Authentication, user passwords are securely encrypted and stored, ensuring that only the users themselves can access and manage their account credentials. This approach enhances the overall security of our platform, giving users peace of mind knowing that their passwords remain confidential and inaccessible to anyone, including us as service providers.

It's crucial to emphasize the importance of safeguarding your password. Never share your password with anyone, including service providers or other users. Your password is a confidential piece of information that grants access to your account and personal data. Sharing it compromises the security of your account and puts your information at risk. Always keep your password private and refrain from sharing it with anyone under any circumstances. If you suspect that your password has been compromised, change it immediately to maintain the security of your account.

Your Email

Emails are utilized within our platform for essential functionalities, such as sending password reset links to users in the event of forgotten passwords. Additionally, emails are directly linked to usernames, providing a means of user identification for safety purposes.

While users remain anonymous on the platform, this linkage enables the service provider to have insight into the identities of its users, enhancing safety measures and facilitating secure interactions. This approach ensures that the service provider can effectively monitor and address any potential safety concerns, while still maintaining user anonymity within the platform's community.

Gender

In our social platform, gender is the sole directly visible information that appears on user profiles. To contextualize posts and enhance user experience, posts are color-coded differently based on the gender of the user. This visual distinction allows for a more nuanced understanding of the content being shared, fostering a sense of inclusivity and engagement within the community. By incorporating this feature, we aim to create an environment where users can express themselves authentically while also respecting their privacy preferences. It's important to note that apart from gender, all other personal information remains private and confidential, ensuring that users have control over their own data.

Your content

To maintain a safe and welcoming environment, all content posted on our platform is monitored by our team. This means that everything shared within the community can be viewed by us to ensure compliance with our terms and conditions. Our goal is to uphold the integrity of our platform and protect the well-being of our users. By actively monitoring content, we can promptly address any violations or inappropriate behavior, fostering a positive and respectful online community. We take the responsibility of content moderation seriously and are committed to creating a space where users can engage and interact with confidence and peace of mind.

As stated in our terms and conditions, users retain ownership of the content they provide on our platform. By using our service, users grant us a license to reuse their content at our  own discretion. This means that while users maintain the rights to their content, they also give us permission to utilize it within the scope outlined in our terms and conditions. We respect the intellectual property rights of our users and strive to uphold transparency and fairness in our practices.

Push Notifications

Comments made by users are shared with OneSignal, a service used for sending notifications. This integration allows us to provide users with timely updates and notifications regarding their interactions within the platform. It's important to note that only relevant information necessary for sending notifications, such as comments, is shared with OneSignal. Users' privacy and confidentiality remain a top priority, and we ensure that their data is handled securely and in accordance with our privacy policy.

Rest assured, all data collected is handled in compliance with our privacy policy and industry standards for data security and confidentiality. Our priority is to maintain transparency and protect the privacy of our users while utilizing this information to enhance the functionality and effectiveness of our platform.

Future changes

We reserve the right to update and modify our Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions to align with future changes in how we utilize data and improve our service. These updates may be implemented immediately upon publication, and by continuing to use our service, users agree to the revised terms and conditions. It's important for users to review these policies periodically to stay informed about any changes that may affect their usage of the platform.
