Date of Last Revision: March
15th, 2017
This privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy") describes
how DVA Apps ("DVA" or "we" or "us") uses
personal information in running our business. DVA is available in our mobile
applications ("Mobile Apps"). We refer to our Mobile App users as
users ("Users") of our Services ("Services"). By visiting
any of the Websites or using any of the Mobile Apps, you are accepting and
consenting to the practices described in the Privacy Policy.
1. WHAT TYPES OF INFORMATION DO WECOLLECT?
User Provided Information. We obtain certain information when you
provide it to us: for example, if you report a problem on one of the Apps, you
may provide your name, email address, and a list of interests such as your
favorite music and television shows. Some of that information can be used by us
to identify or contact you directly and is sometimes referred to as personally identifiable
information.
Information from Use of our
Services. We also gathers
non-personally identifiable information from Users of our Services.
Non-personally identifiable information is information that usually cannot by
itself be used to identify a particular person or entity, and may include: the
Internet Protocol (IP) address, unique device identifiers, anonymous IDs for
advertising, operating system, mobile network information, browser type,
existing applications, browsing activity and non-precise device location
information (e.g., city or region). We ordinarily don't read the content of
these messages unless we reasonably believe the Service is being misused or as
required by law; we keep track of the number of messages sent and similar
information to keep our Services running smoothly.
Device Information. When you access the Services on your
wireless device, we may obtain information from your wireless carrier about the
type of device you are using. We may use this information to notify you about
what type of features and products that may be available to you on your device.
Mobile Phone Number. Certain features of the Services may require
our collection of the phone number of your device. We may associate that phone
number to the mobile device identification information. We will not use that
number for telemarketing.
Location. Depending on the provider, we may
automatically receive general location information when you use our Services.
In the future, if we begin to offer Services that use technology that pinpoints
precise geolocation, we will ensure that we have your consent (an opt-in)
before doing so. We may use and store this information to provide enhanced
location-based Services as well as to serve location-targeted advertising
without your express opt-in, which includes communication to third party
Services providers who have agreed with us to keep such information
confidential and only use such information to the extent necessary to perform the
Services as required by us.

2. HOW DO WE USE INFORMATION?
User Provided Information. We use the personally identifiable
information in the file we maintain about you, and other information we obtain
from your current and past activities on the Services to: deliver the products
and services that you have requested, manage your account and provide you with
customer support, communicate with you about products or services that may be
of interest to you, and to monitor compliance with the rules governing the
Services. We don't sell your personally identifiable information to third
parties.
Non-Personally Identifiable
Information from the use of our Services. We analyze non-personally-identifying information
gathered from users of the Services to help better understand how our Services
are being used and to help tailor content and advertising across the Services.
By recognizing patterns and trends in usage, we are able to better design the
Services to improve Users' experiences, both in terms of content and ease of
use. We also may share non-personally-identifying information with third
parties, including but not limited to advisors, advertisers, analytics
providers, and investors, for the purpose of conducting business.
3. THIRD PARTY ADVERTISERS - YOUR AD CHOICES

advertising companies to serve ads when you visit the Websites and/or use the

interest to you. You have the ability to opt out of the use of your information
for purposes of online third-party advertising. If you would like more

5. DISCLOSURES OF INFORMATION
As reasonably
necessary to provide services to you, we may share non-personally identifying

from Digits by Twitter and consent to the collection and use of your phone
number by Digits by Twitter in accordance with its Privacy Policy.
We may disclose your
information to third parties when obligated or permitted to do so by law and in
order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected, or actual
