We have prepared this Privacy Policy to explain how we collect, use, protect, and disclose information and data when you use the EmailBakup website located at https://emailbakup.com and any EmailBakup mobile applications ("Site") or EmailBakup services ("Services"). This Privacy Policy also explains your choices for managing your information preferences, including opting out of certain uses of your Personal Information (as defined below).

2. Collection of Your Personal Information
You may register for an Account by (a) providing certain personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) such as, and as applicable, your name, your e-mail address, and your Phone Number, or (b) by allowing us to access your name and other profile information through existing accounts you may have on sites including, but not limited to, Google, Slack, or Dropbox (collectively, the “Account Websites”, and each of your profiles on such Account Websites, an “Account Profile”)
When you create a new account to use the Services we will solicit your consent to connect your Google account to your new EmailBakup account (using Google’s OAuth authentication method), thereby providing us with access to your Google account, including but not limited to Files and Email Attachments. Although the OAuth authentication provides access to your Google account, EmailBakup accesses and stores a subset of data from your Google account, including name, email address, and file metadata to provide you with our Services.
Any information that can readily identify a person is considered “Personal Information.” It is your responsibility to give us current, complete, truthful and accurate information, including Personal Information, and to keep such information up to date. We will not be responsible for any problems or liability related to inaccurate or incomplete Personal Information, whether due to your failure to update such Personal Information or otherwise. If you register for an Account through the use of an Account Profile, you will not be required to directly provide us with any Personal Information as we use the information you have already provided to the Account Website in registering for an account with such Account Website and which you have allowed the Account Website to share with us, including, but not limited to, your first name, your Account Website user profile picture, and the networks to which you belong.
In addition to the Personal Information, we may additionally collect the following information from Users (collectively with Personal Information, the “Information”): (i) information from publicly accessible sources; (ii) your visit to or use of the Site and Services, such as webpages viewed, links clicked and other similar navigation action in connection with the Site; and (iii) certain standard browser information, such as your browser type, IP address, and access times.
