Wink Privacy Policy

Wink is developed by 9 Count Inc. This Privacy Policy applies to the family of Wink applications,
including Wink and Wink Live (collectively, the “Wink Applications”). To avoid confusion, we refer
to Wink as the relevant entity throughout this policy. However, 9 Count is the business that
collects and stores your information. Wink - and 9 Count- knows that you take your privacy
seriously. Your data and privacy is important to us and our affiliated companies (collectively,
“Wink”, “us”, “our”, or “we”). This privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) explains how we collect, use,
and share data from or about individuals who use the Wink or Wink Live application (each, an
“app”) or visit our website at www.getwinkapp.com (collectively, the “Services”) to make friends
online. By using our Services, you agree to the collection, use, disclosure, and procedures this
Privacy Policy describes. Beyond the Privacy Policy, your use of our Services is also subject to
our Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.

Please note that Wink and Wink Live are not dating apps. Wink is a place to make friends
online. Please use it accordingly.

HOW WE USE INFORMATION

We use the information we collect to:

● Provide, maintain, improve, and enhance the Services. We use information we collect

features, identify and fix potential bugs, and understand what our users want.

and questions or otherwise provide customer support, and keep you updated on other
information such as Wink’s latest product announcements, software updates, and
upcoming events.

functionality of the Services, including to allow you to post content on third party services,

HOW IS INFORMATION SHARED

● Other users. The Wink Applications are each a social service intended to help you make new
friends and interact with them. Please be aware that your profile information will always be
viewable by other users. You may edit your profile information within the Wink Applications
through your profile settings. We are not responsible for other users’ use of available
information, so you should carefully consider whether and what to include in your profile or
otherwise share through the Services. We also share your information if you ask us to. For
example, we send the messages and other content you ask us to send to other users either
directly or within a group chat. Please be aware that anyone you send a message to will have
their own copy of the message and any content attached to that message. Therefore, even if
you delete your copy of the message from your account, they may duplicate, store, or reshare
at their own discretion.

● Social networks. Our services allow you to share information with social networking services,
such as Instagram. You understand and agree that the use of your information by any social
networking websites will be governed by the privacy policies of these third party platforms and
your settings on that platform. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before sharing
any information with them.

● Third party integrations. Certain features you use through Wink are offered by third parties
such as logging in with Google. Those features may include things such as GIFs, emojis,
smileys, web pages optimized for the Wink Applications, etc. When you choose to use these
third-party features, or other services that use, or are integrated with, our Services, those third
parties (and other users of those third party services) may be able to see things like your user
profile and receive information about what you post or share. These third parties may use this
information as described in their privacy policies, which can include advertising. You understand
and agree that the use of your information by these third parties will be governed by the privacy
policies of these
third party platforms and your settings on that platform. We encourage you to review their privacy
policies before sharing any information with them.

● Our service providers. We share the information we collect with third-party service providers
that help operate our business. Examples include suppliers who host our data or provide
customer service.

● Our related companies. We may share some or all of your information with our affiliated
companies, subsidiaries, or joint ventures.

● Other Wink Applications. In furtherance of servicing and operating the Wink Applications, your
registration and account information and associated data will be shared and available across all
Wink products that you are eligible to access, including Wink and Wink Live.

disclose your information if we believe doing so is required or appropriate to: (a) detect, prevent
or address fraud or other illegal activity (b) respond to your requests; (c) comply with law
enforcement requests and legal process, such as subpoenas, warrants, production orders, or
similar instruments; or (d) protect your, our, or others’ rights, property, or safety, including when
there is an emergency involving potential harm, loss of security or serious injury to people or
threats of such emergencies. For the avoidance of doubt, we may disclose your information if
you post any objectionable content on or through the Services.

● Merger, financing or sale. We may share your information with service providers, advisors,
potential transactional partners, or other third parties in connection with the consideration,
negotiation, or completion of a merger, financing, acquisition, dissolution transaction,
bankruptcy or proceeding involving the sale, transfer, or divestiture of all or a portion of our
business or assets.

● Advertising partners. We work with third party advertising partners to show you ads that we
think may interest you. Please see the “USER CONTROLS” section below for information about
how to opt-out of receiving interest-based ads from some of these partners.

● Consent. We may also share your information with your permission.

USER CONTROLS
● Update your information. You can update your profile information through the Wink
Applications settings.

be deleted by us.

● Blocking and reporting users. You can block users or report users who are engaging in
harmful or offensive conduct to us through the controls provided in the Wink Applications.

● Marketing and promotional communications. You may unsubscribe from emails in the footer
of any marketing or promotional email. Please note that even if you opt-out of receiving
marketing or promotional messages from us, you will continue to receive administrative
messages from us.

● Interest-based advertising. We adhere to the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Self-


Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising. You may opt out of interest-based
advertising as follows:

1. You may opt out of seeing interest-based ads from us or our third party advertising partners on
your desktop browser and/or mobile web browser by visiting the DAA at http://
www.aboutads.info/choices/ or by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) at http://
www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.

2. You may opt out of seeing interest-based ads in the App by downloading the DAA’s
AppChoices application, which is available at http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices.

3. Certain versions of your device’s operating system permit you to opt out of interest based
advertising. Please visit your device settings to limit such tracking.

Please note that when you opt out of interest-based ads, you will still see ads, but they will no
longer be based on your interests or behavior.

SECURITY OF YOUR INFORMATION

We make reasonable efforts to protect your information by using safeguards designed to improve
the security of the information we maintain. Despite these efforts, you should know that we cannot
guarantee the privacy or security of your information because we cannot fully eliminate the
security risks associated with online transmissions.
INTERNATIONAL USERS

The Wink Applications and all of our data, including your Data, are hosted on servers in the United
States. If you are using or accessing the Services from outside of the United States, your Data will
be transferred to, processed and stored in the United States. As a result, United States federal
and state governments, courts, or law enforcement or regulatory agencies may be able to obtain
your Data through laws applicable in the United States. United States laws may not offer the
same privacy protections as the law of your jurisdiction.

Personal information collected in the EU may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination
outside of the EU and processed by employees operating outside of the EU who work for us, one
of our business partners, or service providers. We utilize standard contract clauses (see https://
eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:32010D0087), rely on the European
Commission's adequacy decisions about certain countries, as applicable, and obtain your consent
for these data transfers to the United States and other countries. When we transfer personal
information across country borders, we will make sure there is a transfer mechanism in place to
transfer the data in a manner consistent with that described this Privacy Policy.

For citizens of the European Union, you should know that Wink is a controller and a processor of
your personal information. The legal basis for which we collect and use the information described
above depends on what the information is and why we collected it. The four basis upon which we
rely include:

● Contract. This means we need the information to perform our contract with you. For
example, when you want to send a message, we use information to carry out your request
to transmit that message to its intended recipient.

● Legitimate Interests. This means we have a legitimate interest that does not outweigh your
privacy rights. When we collect and process information based on our legitimate interests,
we consider how we can accomplish what we need to in a way that is the least obtrusive
on your privacy. For example, it is in our interest to protect your safety and security in the
app, so we collect and use information that has been flagged by users or requested by law
enforcement; to make sure you are satisfied with how the Services work, troubleshoot
technical problems or develop new features, we collect and use information about how you
and others use the Services; and to respond to your service inquiries, we collect and use
information in that request and, if relevant to the inquiry, information about how you access
and use the Services.

● Legal Obligations. We may need to use your personal information to comply with a law
enforcement preservation request, subpoena, or other legal process or to protect the rights
of other users.
● Consent. If we have no other legal basis for collecting or using your information, we will
ask you for consent for a specific purpose. If we do, you have the right to withdraw
consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not apply to any processing conducted
in reliance on lawful processing bases other than consent.

EU Users' Rights

In addition to other rights detailed in the policy (such as requesting deletion, correction or updating
of your personal information), EU citizens have certain rights regarding your personal information,
including:

● Right to Object and Restrict Processing. You have the right to object to or restrict our use
of your personal information for direct marketing purposes or under certain circumstances
when the legal bases for using your information is based upon our legitimate interest. If
you wish to object to our use of your information, you can send us a request to delete your
account by emailing us at [email protected].

● Right to Erasure. You have the right to have your personal data erased and no longer
processed. You can send us a request to delete your account by clicking here. Upon
receiving the request, we will make a reasonable effort to delete your personal information
from the app and from our internal network within a reasonable period of time as long as
we are not obligated to preserve your information due to things like law enforcement
preservation requests, subpoenas, investigations, litigation, or otherwise meet any of our
other legal obligations. We may also retain depersonalized information after deletion.

● Data Portability. You can exercise your right to export your personal data by

[email protected].

● File a complaint. You have the right to complain to the data protection authority located in
your Member State. To find contact details, click here.

CALIFORNIA USERS

If you are a California user, please refer to our California Resident Privacy Notice for additional
information about the data we collect and your rights.

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

We don’t knowingly collect personal information for the Wink Application from children under 13,
and no part of our Services is directed to children under 13. In addition, we require users of the
Wink Live Application to be at least 18 years of age.
If we learn that we have inadvertently collected the personal information of a child under 13 while
using the Wink application, or we become aware that a user under the age of 18 has gained
access to and used the Wink Live application and thereby shared personal information with us,
we will take steps to delete the information as soon as possible. If you learn that a child under 13
(or under 18 in the case of Wink Live) has provided us with personal information in violation of this
Privacy Policy, you may alert us at [email protected].

THIRD PARTIES

This Privacy Policy does not apply to services offered by other companies or individuals, including
products or services that we link to or display on the Services. We are not responsible for the
privacy practices of these third parties. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before
providing any information to them.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time, and the updated version will be effective
when posted. We encourage you to regularly check this page to review any changes we might
make. If we make material changes to the Privacy Policy, we will notify you by posting an
announcement on our Services, or by sending you an email or other communication
