Welcome to Rocketbook! Rocketbook (“we,” “us,” or “our”) takes your privacy seriously and we have developed this Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) to describe the information we collect, how that information may be used, with whom it may be shared, and your choices about such uses and disclosures, in connection with your use of websites operated by Rocketbook (“Site”), our products and services (“Product”), and any related mobile applications (“App”). When we refer to our “Services” in this Policy, we are collectively referring to our Product, App, and our Site. This policy applies to “Personal Information,” which includes any information that may be used to identify you.
We encourage you to read this Policy carefully before using our Services, or otherwise providing Personal Information to us.
Information Collected
We collect information when you use our Services and interact with us, as further discussed below. In certain cases, you may choose not to provide us with certain information, however, this may result in you being unable to use certain features of our Services.
Personal Information You Provide to Us When you Use our Services:
NOTE: Our Services are not intended for use by HIPAA covered entities for the transmission of Protected Health Information, nor intended for the transmission of sensitive information such as payment card or financial information (except when making a purchase), so please do not share this information with us.
Information We Collect Automatically
We automatically collect certain information from your device when you use our Services. Generally, this information does not identify you, however, some of this information may be considered “Personal Information” in certain circumstances. This information includes but is not limited to:
Optional App Features
For certain optional App features such as Smart Titles, Smart Search, OCR Transcription, or Snapcast, read access and storage of scanned content on a reputable cloud storage provider is necessary to provide the feature’s functionality. You may disable or refrain from using these features at any time
If you do not use the Smart Titles, Smart Search, OCR Transcription, or Snapcast features, your notes are stored either locally on your own device, or on the cloud service or email account that you have selected to send your scans to. When you send your scans via email, the image file and metadata is passed through an email service provider to assemble the email. However, we do not store scans during that process. Connections to cloud services are governed by those services.
Mobile Analytics
We use mobile analytics software to allow us to better understand the functionality of our App on your device. This software may record information such as how often you use the App, the events that occur within the App, aggregated usage, performance data, and where the App was downloaded from.
Use of Your Information
In general, we collect information from you so that we can provide our Services, operate our business, and provide information that you request from us. This includes the following:
Accessing, Editing, and Removing Your Information
You may request that we delete your account and remove all your data and Personal Information by sending an email to remove@getrocketbook.com. In some cases you may be able to review, edit, and delete your Personal Information by logging into your account on the App. If you ask us to delete your account, we will do so within a reasonable period of time. We take no responsibility for stored information in your cache, or in your devices that may store information, and disclaim all liability of such. Please note that in some cases we cannot delete all or some of your information, including Personal Information, as required or permitted by applicable laws, or as necessary to provide Services to you, or where we otherwise are required to retain such information.
