Belay Inc. DBA Dispatch ("Dispatch", "we", "us", and "our") provides a tool (Dispatch), which helps knowledge workers track and manage their messages and notifications in a priority inbox. Our Privacy Policy ("Privacy Policy") is designed to help you understand how we collect, use and share your personal information and to assist you in exercising the privacy rights available to you.
This Privacy Policy covers the personal information we collect about you when you use our products or services, or otherwise interact with us, including on our website at https://dispatch.do/ and our related online and offline offerings (collectively, the "Services"). This policy also explains your choices surrounding how we use your personal information, which include how you can object to certain uses of the information and how you can access and update certain information.
We collect personal information when you provide it to us, when you use our Services, and when other sources provide it to us, as further described below.

We collect personal information from you such as email address, phone number, or mailing address when you request information about our Services, request customer or technical support, or otherwise communicate with us. We also collect the contents of messages or attachments that you may send to us, as well as other information you choose to provide, and that may be associated with your communications.

When you choose to subscribe for plans on the Services, we will collect payment information allowing you to pay us. We use third-party payment providers to process payments on the Services. We may receive information associated with your payment information, such as billing address and transaction information, but we do not directly store payment information on the Services.

We may contact you to participate in surveys. If you decide to participate, you may be asked to provide certain information which may include personal information.
Automatic Data Collection
We keep track of certain information about you when you visit and interact with any of our Services. This information may include your Internet protocol (IP) address, user settings, MAC address, cookie identifiers, mobile carrier, mobile advertising and other unique identifiers, details about your browser, operating system or device, location information (including inferred location based off of your IP address), Internet service provider, pages that you visit before, during and after using the Services, information about the links you click, information about how you interact with the Services, including the frequency and duration of your activities, and other information about how you use the Services.

Cookies, Pixel Tags/Web Beacons, and Analytics Information
We, as well as third parties that provide content, advertising, or other functionality on the Services, may use cookies, pixel tags, local storage, and other technologies ("Technologies") to automatically collect information through the Services. Technologies are essentially small data files placed on your devices that allow us and our partners to record certain pieces of information whenever you visit or interact with our Services.
Analytics
We may also use third-party service providers to collect and process analytics and other information on our Services. These third-party service providers may use cookies, pixel tags, web beacons or other storage technology to collect and store analytics and other information. They have their own privacy policies addressing how they use the analytics and other information and we do not have access to, nor control over, third parties’ use of cookies or other tracking technologies.
We may obtain information about you from other sources, including through third-party services and organizations. For example, if you access our Services through a third-party application, such as a social networking site or a third-party login service, we may collect information about you from that third party that you have made available via your privacy settings.
We use your personal information for a variety of business purposes, including to:

Our customers may choose to use our Services to process certain data of their own, which may contain personal information.
