We will try to explain to you at the point we ask you to provide your personal data which personal data that you are asked to provide, and the reasons why you are asked to provide it.
When using our services, in addition to providing data about yourself by creating a profile during your account creation process, you also provide data when you take certain actions that are intended to be public in nature such as when you sign up for our newsletter, create an account, request more information on our contact us page or respond to a survey or questionnaire.
Data that may be collected automatically
When you use our Services and if you have given express consent, we may also collect data automatically from you and/or your device which may be considered personal data under applicable data protection laws, such as:

Advertising ID means Apple Identifier for Advertisers (“IDFA”) on Apple and Google Advertising Identity (“GAID”). These are unique identifiers for mobile device that advertisers use for interest based advertising. They are consistent across all apps and thus allow cross-app tracking. On Apple you can opt-out this by choosing “limit ad tracking” option from privacy settings. On Google Android you can opt-out by choosing “Opt-out of interest based ads”.
Advertising IDs are non-permanent, non-personal identifiers, which are uniquely associated with your device. Similar technologies include tracking pixels within ads. These technologies allow companies (including marketers and advertisers) to recognise your device when you use websites and applications.
Data about your device refers to data about your device type, device model, device maker, device operating system and its language or other technical data like screen size or processor, or combination of this data available from a device for a developer for checking the device compatibility with a particular application.
Some of this data may be collected using cookies and/or similar technologies (such as "SDKs" or software development kits), as explained further below.
