Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 7, 2019

We take your privacy seriously. If you give us your email, we won’t sell or give it away. We track visitation via an online analytics tool. Unless you log into our Services, the data is anonymized, so we have no idea that it’s you.

We originally said that we could write more here and pretend we’re lawyers, but who ever reads this anyway. However, our lawyers convinced us to include some lawyerly language below. In the end, we don’t won’t share your data, in whatever form we have, with anyone outside of Protern.io.

Protern.io Inc. (“Protern.io”) owns and operates the website located at https://protern.io (“Website”), the Protern.io application made available through the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, including the supporting cloud-based platform (the “App”).

1.0 – Ways Protern.io Collects Personal Information

“Personal Information” is information that, either alone or in combination with other information collected, identifies an individual.
