Privacy Policy

This privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy") describes how Besttone ("Besttone" or "we" or "us") uses personal information in running our business. The Besttone is available from our websites, including but not limited to, www.besttone.net ("Websites") and mobile applications ("Mobile Apps"). We refer to our Website visitors and Mobile App users as users ("Users") of Besttone's Services ("Services"). Please read our Terms of Service and our online safety and best practices guidelines. By visiting any of the Websites or using any of the Mobile Apps, you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in the Privacy Policy.

1. WHAT TYPES OF INFORMATION DOES BESTTONE COLLECT?

User Provided Information.

We obtain certain information when you provide it to us: for example, if you setup your account profile, sign in using your Facebook Connect or Google login, or report a problem, you may provide your name, email address, your date of birth, photograph, and a list of interests such as your favorite music and television shows. Some of that information can be used by Besttone to identify or contact you directly and is sometimes referred to as personally identifiable information. When you purchase virtual currency or products through our Services, we use a third-party payment processor that collects your payment information and completes the transaction. 

Information from Use of our Services

Besttone also gathers non-personally identifiable information from Users of our Services. Non-personally identifiable information is information that usually cannot by itself be used to identify a particular person or entity, and may include: the Internet Protocol (IP) address, unique device identifiers, anonymous IDs for advertising, operating system, mobile network information, browser type, existing applications, browsing activity and non-precise device location information (e.g., city or region). Besttone enables you to send messages to other Users in the Besttone community. We ordinarily don't read the content of these messages unless we reasonably believe the Service is being misused or as required by law; we keep track of the number of messages sent and similar information to keep our Services running smoothly. Besttone also enables you to 'friend' other members of the Besttone community, and records which members of the community you've friended, which Besttone groups you've joined, and what pieces of content you've uploaded via the Services.

Besttone Login

When you login directly through Besttone, we can access the information you provided during your account profile setup.

User Generated Content.

We offer our Users the opportunity to post reviews, upload images and audio, and offer opinions. Such postings are governed by our Terms of Service. In addition, such postings may appear on other websites or when searches are executed on the subject of your posting. Whenever you voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information on publicly viewable web pages or applications, that information will be publicly available and can be collected and used by others and reproduced on websites or services over which we have no control. Further information is contained in the Besttone online safety and best practices guidelines.
