Many Privacy Policies are lengthy and often designed as a legal document, which results in them being difficult to understand and often ignored. Many users will blindly agree to terms and conditions rather than take the time to read through them. In response, we’ve shortened our own Privacy Policy and made it very easy to understand.
We’ve used the type of language that people use in everyday life. Our hope is that when a user is presented with the Privacy Policy it is clear enough for them to be confident in the knowledge of what data we collect, why we collect it and what we do with the data.
