Privacy Policy
InstaKey (“InstaKey“) operates https://platform.instakey.co/. It is InstaKey’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites. InstaKey has developed this Privacy Policy to explain how we may collect, retain, process, share and transfer your personal data when you visit our Sites or use our Services.
CONSENT
You acknowledge and agree that by accessing our Websites or using our services you fully understand, accept and voluntarily consent to the collection, use, retention and disclosure of personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. It is always your choice whether or not you provide us with your personal information; however, a decision to withhold personal information may restrict or prevent us from providing you with a particular product or service. We will only collect, use, and disclose your personal information with your consent, except where otherwise permitted or required by applicable law or regulatory requirement.
If you disagree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use InstaKey Services.
WEBSITE VISITORS
Like most website operators, InstaKey collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. InstaKey’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how InstaKey’s visitors use its website. From time to time, InstaKey may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
InstaKey also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on InstaKey.com blogs/sites. InstaKey only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.
GATHERING OF PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION
Certain visitors to InstaKey’s websites choose to interact with InstaKey in ways that require InstaKey to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that InstaKey gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at InstaKey.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with InstaKey are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions.
In each case, InstaKey collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with InstaKey. InstaKey does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
We do not collect any Sensitive Data about you. Sensitive data refers to data that includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data. We do not collect any information about criminal convictions and offenses.
AGGREGATED STATISTICS
InstaKey may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. InstaKey may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, InstaKey does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
PROTECTION OF CERTAIN PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION
InstaKey discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on InstaKey’s behalf or to provide services available at InstaKey’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using InstaKey’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. InstaKey will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, InstaKey discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when InstaKey believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of InstaKey, third parties or the public at large.
If you are a registered user of a InstaKey website and have supplied your email address, InstaKey may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with InstaKey and our products. If you send us a request (for example via email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. InstaKey takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

WHO WE SHARE YOUR DATA WITH
1. PAYPAL PAYMENT PROCESSOR
If you choose to subscribe to the InstaKey membership, we may collect credit card or additional payment information from you. However, it is important to note that we do not store any of this payment information or process any of your payments on our servers, but rather use a third party payment service known as ‘PayPal.’ Therefore, any information regarding your payment processing and security must be verified in PayPal’s own Terms of Service Agreement and Privacy Policy.
The payment processor, ‘PayPal’, may provide us with unique authentication tokens to make payments requests with. The payment processor ‘PayPal’ may also provide us with information such as your name, credit card type, expiration date, and the last four digits of your credit card number. This information is used only to make single payment requests, or register the user for an ongoing subscription that requires automatic payments in the future.
In addition, InstaKey may also request and receive any payment history between the user and InstaKey.
2. FACEBOOK CONVERSION PIXELS
We use the “Custom Audience pixel” of Facebook Inc., (“Facebook”) on our website. With its help, we can keep track of what users do after they see or click on a Facebook advertisement. This enables us to monitor the effectiveness of Facebook ads for purposes of statistics and market research. Data collected in this way is anonymous to us, which means we cannot see the personal data of individual users. However, this data is saved and processed by Facebook. Facebook can connect this data with your Facebook account and use it for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with Facebook’s Data Policy which can be found at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. You can allow Facebook and its partners to place ads on and outside of Facebook. A cookie can also be saved on your device for these purposes.

3. GOOGLE ANALYTICS
Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google, Inc., www.google.com (“Google Analytics” or “Google”). Google Analytics employs cookies that are stored to your computer in order to facilitate an analysis of your use of the site. The information generated by these cookies, such as time, place and frequency of your visits to our site, including your IP address, is transmitted to Google’s location in the US and stored there.
In using Google Analytics our website employs the extension “anonymizeIp”. In doing so, Google abbreviates and thereby anonymizes your IP address before transferring it from EU/EEA member states. Google uses this information to analyze your use of our site, to compile reports for us on internet activity and to provide other services relating to our website.
Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law or where such third parties process this data on Google’s behalf. Google states that it will in never associate your IP address with other data held by Google. You can prevent cookies from being installed by adjusting the settings on your browser software accordingly as noted elsewhere in this Privacy Policy. You should be aware, however, that by doing so you may not be able to make full use of all the functions of our website.
Google Analytics also offers a deactivation add-on for most current browsers that provides you with more control over what data Google can collect on websites you access. The add-on tells the JavaScript (ga.js) used by Google Analytics not to transmit any information about website visits to Google Analytics. However, the browser deactivation add-on offered by Google Analytics does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analysis services we may engage.
Google Analytics also uses electronic images known as web beacons (sometimes called single pixel gifs) and are used along with cookies to compile aggregated statistics to analyze how our site is used.
You can find additional information on how to install the browser add-on referenced above at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
For the cases in which personal data is transferred to the US, Google has self-certified pursuant to the EU-US Privacy Shield (https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework).
Additionally, InstaKey utilizes the following platforms for collecting and analyzing data. Please visit each website to view the details of their privacy policies:
