  1. Privacy



    Your privacy is very important to us. We designed our
    Privacy Policy to make
    important disclosures about how you can use Allwink to share with others and
    how we collect and can use your content and information.  We encourage you to
    read the Privacy Policy, and to use it to help make informed decisions.

  2. Sharing Your Content and Information



    You own all of the content and information you post on Allwink, and you can
    control how it is shared through your
    privacy and
    application settings. In
    addition:

    1. For content that is covered by intellectual property rights, like photos
      and videos ("IP content"), you specifically give us the following
      permission, subject to your
      privacy
      and application
      settings
      : you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable,
      royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on or in
      connection with Allwink ("IP License"). This IP License ends when you
      delete your IP content or your account unless your content has been shared
      with others, and they have not deleted it.

    2. When you delete IP content, it is deleted in a manner similar to
      emptying the recycle bin on a computer. However, you understand that removed
      content may persist in backup copies for a reasonable period of time (but
      will not be available to others).

    3. When you use an application, your content and information is shared with
      the application.  We require applications to respect your privacy, and your
      agreement with that application will control how the application can use,
      store, and transfer that content and information.  (To learn more about
      Platform, read our Privacy
      Policy
      and About Platform
      page.)

    4. When you publish content or information using the "everyone" setting, it
      means that you are allowing everyone, including people off of Allwink, to
      access and use that information, and to associate it with you (i.e., your
      name and profile picture).

    5. We always appreciate your feedback or other suggestions about Allwink,
      but you understand that we may use them without any obligation to compensate
      you for them (just as you have no obligation to offer them).
