We (“CloudMagic Inc.” and / or “Newton”) are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how your personal information is collected, used and disclosed by the Company. This Privacy Policy applies to our Service and by accessing or using our Service, you signify that you have read, understood and agree to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.
IN A NUTSHELL
All the information we collect from you is only used to give you the best possible experience using Newton. We don’t run ads inside the product or sell data to make money. We charge our users a subscription fee to run the business so that we don't have to monetise using your valuable data.
We take your privacy extremely seriously and have the best practices in place to safeguard your data. If you delete any account as a user from Newton, we permanently delete the data and credentials from our servers.
The categories of information we collect can include:
Information you provide us directly. We may collect personal information, such as your name, email address, phone number, and payment information when you register for our Service, sign up for our mailing list, or otherwise communicate with us. We may also collect any communications between you and the Company and any other information you provide to the Company.
Information collected through the use of the Service.
Account authentication/passwords and data: Accounts are added to Newton through OAuth authentication (where possible). OAuth is a secure mechanism which gives us access to your data without letting us know your password.
Where OAuth is not supported, we keep your account username and password in our secure servers.
User Actions: We collect information about how you use the Service and your actions on the Service in order to improve the Service.
Emails, Calendar and Contacts: Newton uses the cloud to download and push them to your device. Newton’s cloud downloads and pushes only recent emails — emails sent or received in the last 60 days. Email attachments are first proxied through our servers and then downloaded to your device once you initiate download. Newton also syncs calendar events. Newton servers may store and process these data to make some of the features work - such as Tidy Inbox, Recap, Send Later, Read Receipts, Push Notifications with content optimised to the device’s capability and for UI presentation.
Superchargers and preferences: Information from premium features (aka Superchargers), including read receipts, connected apps, sender profile and app preferences are collected and stored on our servers. This is in order to update and synchronize these features across multiple devices when using the Service.
Location, language and timezone: We collect your approximate location from your IP address in order to provide our Service, such as displaying and interpreting times in your local timezone and may provide the service in your local language. We maintain location information only so long as is reasonable to provide the Service.
Server logs: Our web servers, application servers and various processes may log information useful for running, monitoring and maintaining the service.
General Statistical Information: When you visit our website and use our applications we gather usage statistics. This information is referred to throughout this Policy as "General Statistical Information". It may include device type and settings, operating system, interaction within the Newton apps and websites, newsletter emails, IP address, crash reports, the date, time, and referrer URL of your request. This data helps us to determine how and the extent to which certain parts of our website and applications are used.
We use this information to build, operate, maintain, and provide to you the features and functionality of the Service, as well as to communicate directly with you, such as to send you email messages and push notifications. We may also send you Service-related emails or messages (e.g. account verification, change or updates to features of the Service, technical and security notices). For more information about your communication preferences, see "Control and access to your information (5)" below.
Sometimes, we'll send emails to your registered email address. There are "transactional" emails which you can't opt out of, which informs you about your account, service changes and new policies. Along with these, you might also receive emails which are newsletters, digests etc. You can opt out of these emails.
When you interact with an email sent from Newton (such as opening an email or clicking on a particular link in an email), we may receive information about that interaction. We won’t email you to ask for your password or other account information. If you receive such an email, please send it to us so we can investigate.
We automatically collect usage information when you visit our Website or use the Service through the use of tracking technologies, including tracking pixels and similar technology (collectively, "Tracking Technologies"). We may use the data collected through Tracking Technologies to: (a) remember information so that you will not have to re-enter it the next time you visit the Website or use the Service; (b) provide and monitor the effectiveness of our Service; (c) provide functionality of the Service including read receipts; (d) monitor and collect analytics data using third-party tools like Google Analytics, Fabric in order to help measure traffic and usage trends for the Service; (e) diagnose or fix technology problems; and (f) otherwise to plan for and enhance our Service.
