Your Privacy is Very Important To Us

 

Last Updated: November 25, 2015 

Blue Goji Corp. ("Blue Goji," "we", "us," "our,") develops products and services to help users improve their health and wellness. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") explains how we collect, protect and use information we collect in connection with your use of our websites through which you are accessing this Policy, including but not limited to www.bluegoji.com, www.gojiverse.com and other Blue Goji websites and urls (collectively, the "Sites"), our mobile apps, widgets, programs, games and other applications (collectively, the "Services"), as well as our Goji Play game controllers and other electronic products offered by us (collectively with the Sites and the Services, the "Blue Goji Products" or “Products”). "Personal information" for purposes of this Policy means information that identifies you, such as your name, address, phone number, fax number or email address. By providing information to us or using the Blue Goji Products, you agree to the terms of this Policy.

Your use of the Blue Goji Products is also subject to the provisions of our Terms of Service, available here.

Our Privacy Credo

 

Blue Goji is committed to maintaining the privacy, integrity and security of our users’ personal information. We will not sell nor share your personal information with advertisers or sellers of third party products. We will only share personally identifiable information when you have approved it (or in a manner described later in this Privacy Policy). We will only use the data we collect to improve the Blue Goji Products we provide to you, to enable you achieve your health and wellness goals. We strive to protect your personal information in a manner consistent with the privacy and security principles espoused under the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) for the handling of “protected health information”, well beyond what is required for a typical consumer wellness portal. In addition, we employ a rigorous, three-tier user identity scheme (described in the next section) to protect your privacy when you use our Products and interact with other members of the Blue Goji community.

 

 

What Personal Information We Collect and How We Might Use it

 

Your Blue Goji Products work in conjunction with a user account on the Sites (a "User Account"). You can also sync data from certain third party devices and platforms into your Blue Goji User Account. Below are descriptions of the information we may collect and how we might use it.

When you sign up for a Blue Goji User Account, you are required to provide a valid email address through which we will contact you about support and important matters related to your account. You will also be required to provide your date of birth to verify whether you are an eligible account holder, as usage by children under 13 requires parental or guardian consent (see Children section below). We will also use your age to provide you with improved recommendations and Services.  In addition, we use a rigorous, three-tier user identity scheme to protect your privacy when you use our Services and interact with other members of the Blue Goji community. When you register, you will also be required to create 3 different identities: 

1. User Name -  This is your unique User Account login ID, which will be used to login into Goji Play, GojiVerse (our wellness portal and community) and our other Services and provide you with access to your User Account.  This should not be your email address. Changing your User Name is not supported at this time.

You will also be required to create a password for use with your User Name to login into your User Account.  You should keep your User Name and password completely private, and not share it with anyone else.

2. Persona Name -  This is your main identity within the Blue Goji community (GojiVerse), which you will use to communicate with your friends and family within GojiVerse and the Services. All your Goji Play and other core Blue Goji activities will be associated with your Persona Name. Your friends and family with whom you share your Persona Name will be able to see your Blue Goji activities, communicate with you in GojiVerse and post to your activity log in GojiVerse. Initially, your Persona Name will be completely private and not visible to user searches within GojiVerse (you may change this setting within your account settings). Do not use anything similar to your User Name as your Persona Name.  Changing your Persona Name is not supported at this time.

3. Avatar name - This is your anonymous identity, which is used for certain public activities within our community and will be visible to all other users of GojiVerse and our Products.  For instance, we will use your Avatar Name to post your Goji Play and other Blue Goji activity scores on our public leaderboards. We also understand that some users may wish to remain anonymous when participating in certain sensitive activities, such as joining a stress management or substance abuse support community within GojiVerse. As a result, when you join a GojiVerse community, you may be asked whether you prefer to participate under your Persona Name (in which case your Persona identity will be revealed) or your Avatar Name (in which case you remain anonymous). In essence, your Avatar is an anonymous identity that you can use for certain interactions with others within GojiVerse. To ensure the anonymity of your Avatar identity: (i) do not use anything similar to your User Name or Persona Name as your Avatar Name; (ii) do not share your User Name, Persona Name or other personally identifiable information when conducting activities under your Avatar Name; and (iii) do not share your Avatar Name with those that know your Persona identity. You may change your Avatar Name at any time.

We recognize that it may seem confusing at first to maintain 3 different ‘IDs’ but we believe these features will provide our users with enhanced privacy when participating within the Blue Goji community.   

In order to better benefit from the Blue Goji Products and Services, you can also provide additional personal details to your user account, such as height, weight, and gender so that we can more accurately estimate your calories burned for any given Blue Goji activity. (If you do not provide this information, we will estimate your calories based upon a default person type.)

When you use Goji Play or any of our mobile apps, certain information collected by your Blue Goji Product will be tracked by us and viewable by you in your Blue Goji user account. Information that may be collected or tracked from your use of Blue Goji Products include:

- Goji Play game play activity information and statistics such as time and duration of play, game scores, estimated steps, estimated calories, estimated heart rate and other biometric information that we track or calculate.  These biometric parameters are also incorporated into our game plays.  (For example, you may send a Goji Play Moment to your friends and challenge them to beat you on the number of steps you took playing a particular game.) This information will be reported to you in the Goji Play app or game, as well as your user account.

- Usage information of our other Services and Products, as well as any metrics or other information that are captured and reported to you in such app or product, such time and duration of activity, scores, biometrics and the like.

You may also choose to manually provide additional information to enhance your use of the Services.  For instance, in GojiVerse, you may provide your own content and information about yourself and your activities, including information you post about your status or messages to other users. That information is stored in your User Account.

When you use our GojiGo and other locations-based apps, we will use the location and GPS tracking feature of your mobile device to track your location and provide you with the location reporting found in these apps.  Our location-based apps typically use the default mapping tool provided by the mobile operating system of your device, such as Apple Maps for iOS and Google Maps for Android, to track your location and routes on a map. These mapping tools from Apple, Google or other OS provider may or may not track or share your location data.  As we do not have control over their use of such data, we recommend that you review the privacy policies of your device OS provider for further information. You must enable the location tracking setting of your mobile device in order for GojiGo and our other location based apps to track your location.

When you authorize the use of your video camera with our Services, we will use the video data to estimate certain biometric information, including heart rate and breath rate.  The biometric information will be stored in your User Account.  We do not retain these images or videos.  

When you elect to share data from your Blue Goji User Account with others, we collect the information you provide about those individuals such as their names and email addresses.  We may use such information as described in this Privacy Policy. 

When you connect your Goji Play or other Blue Goji Product to the Services, we collect the hardware ID number from your Blue Goji Product and your mobile device, and connect such information to the User Account that is registered with the Service. Such activity data from these devices will be connected to your User Account for you to track and view.  

When you connect your third party device or account to the Services, such as your Fitbit or MyFitnessPal account, we collect the information stored in your account with such third parties and store the information in your Blue Goji User Account for you to track and view.

When you contact us for support or other information, we will collect your name, email address and telephone, as well as other information that you provide as part of your inquiry and our communications.  This information will only be used to respond to your inquiry or provide support or the relevant services to you.

 

 

Third Party Payment Services

 

We may use a third-party payment service to process payments made through the Services.  If you wish to make a payment through the Services, your personal information may be collected by such third party and not by us, and will be subject to the third party’s privacy policy, rather than this Policy.  We have no control over, and are not responsible for, this third party’s collection, use and disclosure of your personal information.

 

 

Other General Uses of Your Personal Information

 

In addition to the uses described above, we may also use your personal information to:

  • Provide you with the Services and related customer service;
  • Analyze Site usage and improve the Services;
  • Deliver to you any administrative, support or technical notices and communications relevant to your use of the Blue Goji Products and Services;
  • Provide you with updates regarding Blue Goji Products and Services;
  • Perform data analytics and other internal market research, project plan, troubleshoot problems, conduct audits, develop new products or enhance our existing products, and detect and protect against error, fraud or other criminal activity; and/or
  • Enforce the Blue Goji Terms of Service and otherwise protect our operations, rights, privacy, safety or property and/or that of our affiliates, you or others, and to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain.

 

 

Disclosure to Third Parties

 

At times Blue Goji may make certain personal information available to strategic partners that work with Blue Goji to provide services to you. For example, if you elect to sync your Blue Goji Product data with a third party nutrition or fitness application, we will share your personal information with that application. In such cases, your account with such third party will continue to be subject to that third party's privacy policy and your Blue Goji User Account will continue to be governed by this Policy.

Blue Goji may also share certain of your personal information with companies who provide services to us, such as information processing, order fulfillment, product delivery, customer helpdesk, and other services.

We may also disclose information about you if we determine that disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce our terms and conditions; to protect our operations or our rights, privacy, safety or property and/or that of our affiliates, users or others; to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain; or if we are required to do so by any applicable law, rule, regulation, subpoena or other legal process or to respond to requests from government authorities. Additionally, in the event of a reorganization, merger, sale, assignment or other disposition of all or any portion of our business or assets (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings), we may transfer any and all personal information we collect to the relevant third party. 

You may choose to share much of your personal information and other data collected by us with other Blue Goji Users of our Products or with parties outside of Blue Goji Services based upon your account settings. The initial setting for such sharing of information will be set at the most private setting.

 

 

Use of Aggregated Anonymous User Data

 

We may use and disclose information that does not personally identify you for any purpose, except where we are required to do otherwise under applicable law. If we are required to treat such information as personal information, then we may use it for all the purposes for which we use and disclose personal information.

 

 

Cookies and Other Technology

 

The Blue Goji Site and Services may use "cookies" and other technologies such as pixel tags and web beacons.

Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers in the form of text files that are inserted and stored by your Web browser on your computer's hard drive. These technologies tell us which parts of our website you have visited, limit the number of times you see a Blue Goji offer, help us better determine which Blue Goji offers you may like to see or alert you to software compatibility issues. They are also used to analyze and improve our Products' design and functionality.

 If you choose to delete cookies from your device or block them from being stored on your device, please note that the full functionality of the Services may not be available to you.

"Web beacons" are images embedded in a Web page or email for the purpose of measuring and analyzing Site or email usage and activity. Blue Goji, or third party service providers acting on our behalf, may use Web beacons to help us analyze Site usage, improve the Service and measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

We may use third-party services, such as Google Analytics, in connection with the Services.  Such third-party services, including Google Analytics, may use cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about Services use and to report on activities and trends. Such services may also collect information regarding the use of other websites, apps and online resources.  For more information regarding Google Analytics, please go to www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.  You can download the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

We may use third party service providers to help us analyze certain online activities and improve our products and the Services. For example, these service providers may help us measure the performance of our online campaigns or analyze visitor activity on Blue Goji.com. We may permit these service providers to use cookies and other technologies to perform these services for Blue Goji. 

We may use Flash Local Stored Objects (LSOs) and other technologies to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of the Services.  If you do not want Flash LSOs stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash LSO storage using the tools contained in the Website Storage Settings Panel. You can also control Flash LSOs by going to the Global Storage Settings Panel and following the instructions (which may include instructions that explain, for example, how to delete existing Flash LSOs (referred to "information" on the Macromedia site), how to prevent Flash LSOs from being placed on your computer without your being asked, and (for Flash Player 8 and later) how to block Flash LSOs that are not being delivered by the operator of the page you are on at the time).  Please note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash LSOs may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications.

At this time, we do not respond to browser do-not-track signals.
