Information we get from you
When you use our Services, we collect information that you provide to us. Additionally, certain information is automatically collected from you. Some of this information may identify you (“Personal Information”), and some of this information may not identify you (“Anonymous Information”). Sometimes, Anonymous Information may directly or indirectly be associated or combined with Personal information. In these cases, such Anonymous Information will be considered Personal Information for purposes of this Privacy Policy. In addition, to the extent that Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses or similar identifiers or information are considered personally identifiable information by applicable law, we will treat those items as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy.

If you purchase our Services or products, you may provide your credit or debit card information. Astrology Works uses third parties to process payments – we do not collect or store credit card information.
If you provide your phone number, we send a few kinds of transactional text messages directly relating to your use of your Services, like confirming your account and resetting your password. By providing your mobile phone number, you expressly consent to receive this type of transactional text messages from us at that number. Third-party data and message fees may apply.

How we share information
Astrology Works does not sell your personal information to third parties, nor do we disclose personal information to third parties for direct marketing purposes.
We may share Anonymous Information with third parties as described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy and to improve our Services and for other commercial purposes.
We take your privacy seriously, and may disclose Personal Information only as follows:

These third parties include agents, contractors, vendors, system integrators, etc. Astrology Works, our affiliates, and our business partners may share this Personal Information with each other and use it consistent with this Privacy Policy. They may also combine it with other information to provide and improve our Services.
- To customer support employees. Authorized customer support employees may access to your Personal Information as needed to resolve issues you encounter on our Services and help you use our Services.
- We may share information about you for legal, safety, and security reasons. We may share information about you if we reasonably believe that disclosing the information is needed to:

- investigate, remedy, or enforce potential Terms of Service violations.
- protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our users, or others.

Protecting Children's Privacy
CHILDREN ONLINE PROTECTION
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of thirteen (13), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen (13). If you are not thirteen (13) years or older, do not use our Website, Apps, or Services. If you believe that we have received the information of a child, please contact us at support@astrology.works.
ERASURE LAW
In accordance with California law, minors under the age of eighteen (18) residing in California may remove, or request and obtain the removal of, content and information that they share on the Websites or App. To remove or to request and obtain the removal of such content and information, the user must email support@astrology.works. Users should be aware that removing content and information posted by a minor does not ensure complete or comprehensive erasure of content or information posted on our Services.
Under certain circumstances, Astrology Works may not have to comply with the above removal requirements. Astrology Works also reserves the right, to the extent permitted by law, to anonymize the posted content or information or to make such content or information invisible to other users and the public, instead of removing or deleting the content or information.
Links to third-party websites
When you use our Services, you may be directed to other websites and applications that are beyond our control. We may also allow third-party websites or applications to link to the Services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third parties or the content of linked websites and applications, but we do encourage you to read the applicable privacy policies and terms and conditions of such parties, websites, and applications. This Privacy Policy only applies to the Services.
Social Media Features
LOGIN
You can log in to our Services using Facebook Connect. Facebook Connect will authenticate your identity and provide you the option to share certain Personal Information with us, such as your name and email address to pre-populate our sign-up form.
INFORMATION YOU SHARE SOCIALLY
Keep in mind that the users who view any content you share (e.g. your profile or your DMs) can always save that content or copy it outside the app. So, the same common sense that applies to the internet at large applies to Astrology Works as well: Don’t share or make public any content that you wouldn’t want someone else to save or share.
How we secure, store, and retain information
SECURITY
We have implemented reasonable technical and organizational precautions to protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of your personal information from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure, or unauthorized access. We cannot guarantee the security of information transmitted to us over the internet.
STORAGE
The Personal Information that you provide to us is generally stored on servers maintained by AWS, or Amazon Web Services. These servers are located in the United States. If you are located in another jurisdiction, you should be aware that once your Personal Information is submitted through our Services, it will be transferred to our servers in the United States and therefore governed by local data protection laws, which can vary state by state.
RETENTION
We will retain your personal information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
International users
Astrology Works is headquartered in the United States, and we store personal information on servers located in the United States, which may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you reside. If you are using our Services from outside the United States or Canada, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States and Canada. By using our Services, you consent to such transfers of this information.
We may act as a “controller” as defined under applicable data protection law when we process your information from the Website, Apps, and Services. Generally, we rely on our legitimate interests when processing this information. These legitimate interests include providing our Services, operating our Website and Apps, and our other business purposes. We also may process your personal information in order to fulfill contracts we might have with you. If consent is the legal basis, we will obtain your consent and let you know how you can withdraw it.
Your choices and rights
If you would like to update your contact information or preferences, have your information removed from our records, or if you have comments or questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at support@astrology.works.
You are not obligated to provide us your information. If you decline to do so, we may be unable to respond to your requests or questions, and without certain information like your birth date, place of birth, and time of birth, some or all features of the Services may not be available or work at all.
You may opt out of email communications at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link within any message that you receive.
You can control how your browser responds to cookies by adjusting the privacy and security settings of your web browser. You may set your browser to not accept cookies, but this may limit certain functionalities on the Websites. How to opt out depends on the type of browser and/or device you are using. If you would like to opt out of analytics cookies, you may opt out of Google Analytics.
If you reside or are in certain jurisdictions, you may have rights and protections in relation to your information under applicable laws. These rights may include the right to access, delete, correct, move (or port), object to the processing and limit the processing of your information as well as the right to lodge a complaint with a regulator. These rights are not absolute, are subject to exceptions, and we may be required or permitted by law to decline your request. To the extent required and permitted by applicable laws, we will process your request, and if applicable, we may ask you for additional information to verify your identity. If you would like to exercise your rights or have questions about the way we process your personal information, please contact us at support@astrology.works.
