Elinasoft
offers you different contacts' management solutions such as:
contacts backup & restore, merge duplicates, cleanup, group

with your social network picture and additional solutions,
features and enhancements as may become available by Elinasoft
from time to time. Elinasoft also allow you to automatically
identify incoming calls (“Caller ID”) and to perform
a manual number search to easily find relevant contacts.
The
type of information we collect
We collect two
types of information from our users.
The first
type of information is un-identified and non-identifiable
information pertaining to a user(s), which may be made available
or gathered via your use of the Services (“Non-personal
Information”). We are not aware of the identity of the user
from which the Non-personal Information was collected.
•
Technical information: In order to enhance the functionality of
the Services and to provide you with a better user experience, we
collect technical information transmitted by your device,
including certain software and hardware information (e.g. the
type of browser and operating system your device uses, language
preference, access time and the domain name from which you linked
to the Services; etc.).
• Analytics information: We
collect information about your use of the Services, such as
applications' usage, log files, user activity (e.g. pages viewed,
the amount of time spent on particular pages, online browsing,
clicks, actions, installs, etc.), time stamps, alerts, etc. This
information is collected for amongst other things troubleshooting
errors and bugs as well as for research and analytics purposes
about your use of the Services.
• Anonymous
information: We may anonymize or de-identify the information
collected by the Services or via other means so that the
information cannot, on its own, personally identify you. Our use
and disclosure of such aggregated or de-identified information is
not subject to any restrictions under this Privacy Policy, and we
may disclose it to others without limitation and for any
purpose.
The second type of information is
individually identifiable information, namely information that
identifies an individual or may with reasonable effort identify
an individual (“Personal Information”). Such
information may include:
• Account
Information: When you sign-up and register to the Services, you
will be asked to provide us certain details about yourself. You
may register to our Services through your social network account
or directly through our Apps.
• Registering
through the App: When you register to our Services through the
App we may collect from you the following information: full name
and e-mail address; your full contact list (i.e. address book)
which is stored on your device (“Contacts”); your
phone number and call logs; details you save under your contact
application next to your own details; as well as any other
information you made publicly available on such account or agreed
to share with us.
• Registering through
social networks: When you register or sign-in to the Services via
your social network account (e.g. Facebook; Google, etc.), we
will have access to basic information from your social network
account, such as your name, email address, birthdate, profile
picture, friends' list, as well as any other information you made
publicly available on such account or agreed to share with us. At
all times, we will abide by the terms, conditions and
restrictions of the social platform.
•
Contact Information: You are requested to provide access and
information about your Contacts in order to be able to use our
Services and manage your Contacts. When you provide us with
access to your Contacts, you acknowledge and agree that we may
use such information as part of the Services, as described in
this Privacy Policy and you confirm that you have the rights and
permissions to provide such access to your Contacts. Similarly,
when you provide us with permissions and access to your social
network account, we may access and use your friends list for the
purpose of the Services (both the Contacts and the social
network’s friend list will be defined hereunder as “Contact
Information”). Please note that at any time, you or any of
your Contacts can choose to opt-out from having their Contact
Information enhanced, managed or shared by us, by following the
instructions below (under “Opt-out options”).
By
using our Services, you acknowledge that you have the rights and
permissions to provide us Contact Information and to collect, use
and share it for the purposes stipulated in this Privacy

• Voluntary information: We collect
information which you provide us voluntarily. For example, when
you respond to communications from us, performing a purchase
through our App, communicate with us via email or the
website or share additional information about yourself or about
others through your use of the Services (e.g. when sharing
massages to a group of Contacts; contact , sync of your contact

How
we collect information
There
are four main methods we may use to collect information about
you:
• We collect information through your
use of the Services. In other words, when you are using our
Services, we are aware of it and may gather the information
relating to such usage (e.g. your call logs and Contacts).
•
We collect information which you provide us voluntarily. For
example, we collect Personal Information which you provide when
you register an account, perform an in-app purchase, interact
with our customer support, share information within a group of
Contacts; etc.)
• We collect information
through third party platforms (e.g. Facebook, Google) when you
connect to our Service via these platforms.
•
We collect information from different public sources in order to
enhance, optimize and enrich our database and make it current and
up to date as possible (see below, under “Elinasoft

public API’s (such as social networks) to complete and
update our database.
Google
Analytics
We may use third party services for
performance tracking and measurement such as Google Analytics,
Flurry Analytics, Fabric or other third party services that
may use some of the Non-Personal Information for analyzing and
statistic purposes.
Google Analytics collects
information such as how often users access the Service, what
pages they visit when they do so, etc. We use the information we
get from Google Analytics only to improve our Service. Google
Analytics collects the IP address assigned to you on the date you
visit sites, rather than your name or other identifying
information. We do not combine the information collected through
the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable
information. Google’s ability to use and share information
collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is
restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and
