By using our Service, you understand and agree that we provide you with a platform to post content, including photos, comments, and other materials (“User Content”), on the Service and to share User Content publicly. This means that other users (as defined below) may search for, view, use, or share any User Content that you make publicly available through the Service, in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use. Our Privacy Policy applies to all visitors, users, and others who access the Service (“Users”).

Users can add or may have metadata added to their User Content, including a hashtag (e.g., to mark keywords when you post a photo), geotag (e.g., to mark your location on a photo), comments, or other data. This makes your User Content more searchable by others and more interactive.

Analytics services (non-personally identifiable information only)
We use third-party analytics tools to help us measure traffic and usage trends for the Service. These tools collect information sent by your device or our Service, including the web pages you visit, add-ons, and other information that helps us improve the Service. The tools use “cookies,” text files placed on your device, to collect your log and behavioral information anonymously. We collect and use this analytics information with analytics information from other Users so that it cannot reasonably be used to identify any particular individual User. With regard to Google Analytics, although Google Analytics places a persistent cookie on your web browser to identify you, the cookie cannot be used by anyone other than Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits by disabling cookies.
