Life Legally Single PRIVACY POLICY

LLS is the world’s largest platform for the Singles Community.  We hope to help our users find ideas, inspiration, tips, products, and information to  live a lifestyle of freedom and happiness.  

Our “Platform” is made up of www.LegallySingle.com, and all of the related websites, mobile apps, products, software, services, programs, and networks offered by LLS. The terms “we,” “us,” “our,” or “LLS” refer to LLS inc. and its affiliates. By “you,” we are referring to visitors and users of any part of our Platform. 

This Privacy Policy describes what personal information we collect through the Platform (defined below), how we use this information, how this information may be shared, and what choices and rights you have with respect to this information. Access and use of our Platform is subject to this Privacy Policy.

When you give permission or allow third-party platforms like Facebook or Google, we may receive details such as your name, email address, and profile photo when you sign up for our platform.

Third-Party Sites.  We may receive information about you from other sources, including from other users and third parties, and combine that information with the other information we have about you. For example, we may receive demographic or interest information about you from third parties, including advertisers (such as the fact that an advertiser is interested in showing you an ad), and combine it with data you have provided to us. 

Website Services. Website “Services” means any website displaying Content.

3. Sharing Your Information

We do not rent or sell your personal contact information (such as your email address associated with your account registration) to third parties to use for their direct marketing purposes. We share personal information in the following ways:

Platform Visitors

One of the main purposes of having a LLS account is to connect with others. Through LLS, others have the ability to find, contact, view, and follow your profile and public activity on LLS (for example, if you “like” content on our Platform) and link it to your username. You can customize your LLS profile. Your LLS content (for example, ideabooks, photos, notes on others’ photos, projects, discussions, and social media profiles), followers, and others you follow are publicly viewable on the Platform and open to comments by other LLS users. 

Service Providers and Partners

We may share your information with service providers and partners as reasonably needed for our uses described in this Privacy Policy. In addition, we may share information about you with third-party platforms when you allow the third-party platform to receive this information from us or allow LLS to share this information with the third party. Our Platform may include third-party social media features and other third-party plug-ins and widgets. When these features are displayed on our Platform, they are operated or hosted by third parties. We are not responsible for these third parties and third-party platforms, so please carefully review their privacy policies and your permissions granted to these third parties and platforms. For example, you may sign-up for our Platform through Facebook or Google.

Advertisers and Ad Networks

We use advertising networks and partners to serve advertisements for us and other businesses, including interest-based advertising, on third-party sites and to assist us in evaluating the effectiveness of our advertising. We may also work with advertising networks and partners to serve ads on our Platform and to communicate with you at the addresses they have for you. To opt-out of the use of your information for this purpose, please send a request as provided under the Contact Us section.

We and the businesses advertising on our Platform, advertising networks, and advertising partners may also use cookies or similar technologies to track your activities on our Platform and other online properties in order to provide you with tailored ads across websites, apps, and devices and to understand how those ads perform. 

Corporate Affiliates and Business Transfers

We may share information from or about you with (a) joint ventures or other companies in the LLS Group, or (b) a potential or actual acquirer, successor, or assignee as part of any reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets, or stock (including in bankruptcy or similar proceedings). In these cases, their use will be subject to this Privacy Policy.

Legal Obligations

We may disclose information from or about you, as required or permitted by applicable law, if we believe that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with legal process and law enforcement instructions and orders, such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute, judicial proceeding, or other legal process served on us, a service provider, or a partner (which may include disclosure to law enforcement, courts, or governmental authorities); (b) prevent, investigate, or identify possible wrongdoing in connection with our Platform; (c) protect our rights, reputation, property, or that of our visitors, users, corporate affiliates, or the public; or (d) enforce compliance with our agreements with you (for example, the LLS Terms of Use).

You may change your communication preferences at any time through your LLS settings and you may also opt-out of similar types of marketing emails from us directly through the email. To opt-out of our text messages at any time, you can follow the instructions provided in the text message, which typically is to reply “STOP.”  Please be aware that you cannot opt-out of receiving necessary account- and privacy-related messages from us. If you wish to stop receiving push notifications from us, you can turn off push notifications for the mobile application in the settings of your mobile device.

Our Platform also allows you and others to send messages and make calls in our Platform, share content with others outside our Platform, and if you make your contact information available, for others to contact you outside of our Platform.

4. Updates to this Privacy Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. The most current version of our Privacy Policy will govern our use of information about you. If we make material changes to our Privacy Policy, we will notify you by email or by posting a notice on our Platform or by other means, to offer you an opportunity to review the changes before they become effective. By continuing to access or use our Platform after those changes become effective, you are subject to the revised Privacy Policy.

Please note that the notice, information, and rights for residents in Colorado and Connecticut are only effective June 1, 2023.

However, we disclose certain of your contact information and identifiers, commercial information, and Internet activity information to professionals, vendors, and sellers on our Platform, advertising providers, and other service providers in exchange for services, including behavioral and targeted advertising services, which may constitute a data “sale” and “sharing” under some privacy laws, including the CCPA.
