1. What information do we collect?

To download your personal data, visit your account.

Personal information you disclose to us

In Short:We collect personal information that you provide to us such as name, contact information, passwords and security data, payment information, and social media login data.

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when registering at the Sites or Apps, expressing an interest in obtaining information about us or our products and services, when participating in activities on the Sites or Apps (such as posting comments on set lists or entering competitions, contests or giveaways) or otherwise contacting us.

The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us and the Sites or Apps, the choices you make and the products and features you use. The personal information we collect can include the following:

Account Information

• Your Profile Data

  You provide us with your profile data when you sign up, before you send Quote Requests, and on your Account → Edit Profile page.

  We use your profile data to identify you when you submit availability check emails and Quote Requests. We need to know who you are, who you're working for, and how to contact you with our response. We CC you on these emails so you know exactly which information we're sharing.

• Your Profile Photo

  You provide this to us at sign-up or on your Account → Profile Photo page.

  We display your profile photo in the upper right corner of our website to personalize your shopping experience. We also display it on our Dashboard to help our admins recognize you with customer support requests.

• Your Email Preferences

  You provide us with your email subscription preferences at sign-up and on your Account → Email Preferences.

  We use these preferences to determine if we send you these types of emails.

• The Geo Location of your IP address

  When you visit our website, we use a third-party service to get the IP address of your device and approximate its location. This data includes latitude, longitude, city, state, postal code, and country. We can't and don't collect street address data.

  We use your geo location to rank your search results; items closer to you will be ranked higher than items farther away. We also display this information on our Dashboard to our admins to assist with customer support.

• On which website your account was registered

  Propcart.com and its affiliate websites all share the same backend, so the website you signed up on is important for determining how your data is secured and partitioned for that website. This is saved under the "Vendor Name" field.

  Admins can only access their own registered users to facilitate customer support requests.

• If your account was created anonymously before registering

  We collect user engagement data ("events") on our website visitors whether they are logged in or not. If they are not logged in, we create an "anonymous" user ID and save their engagement activity to this user ID. We store a cookie in the user's browser to identify this anonymous user across multiple sessions. When an anonymous user signs up, the "Is Anonymous?" value changes from true to false and "Was Anonymous?" is set to true.

  We use User IDs to count and track user events on our website. All events like item views are counted once per user per item per day, so each visitor, even anonymous ones, need a user ID to prevent double counting. We also track how often anonymous users convert into registered users, which provides continuity with their event history during this process.

• When your account was created

  When you sign up, we log the date and time.

  We use this for counting how many users sign up on our website per day, as well as sorting lists of users on our Dashboard for customer support.

• Credentials.

  We collect passwords and similar security information used for authentication and account access.

• Social Media Login Data.

  We provide you with the option to register using your Facebook and Google account. If you choose to register in this way, we will collect the Information described in the section called "How do we handle your social logins" below.

• Payment Data.

  We collect data necessary to process your payment if you make purchases, such as your payment instrument number (such as a credit card number), the security code associated with your payment instrument, and the postal code the credit card is registered to. All payment data is stored by our payment processor (Stripe, Inc.) and you should review its privacy policies and contact the payment processor directly to respond to your questions.

Favorites

• Your favorite items, i.e. "favorites"

  You add items to your Favorites List by clicking an item's heart button.

  We provide this feature for you to conveniently save items that you may want to refer to in the future. We also show our admins which items are favorited in their Dashboard, but this is aggregated and displayed anonymously.

• Created At

  When you create a favorite, we log the date and time.

  This helps us display your recent favorites on your homepage and order them in your Favorites list. It also helps our admins sort and analyze our website's event history.

Set Lists

• Your Set Lists and the items added to them

  You create set lists and add items to them by clicking on an item's "Add to Set List" button.

  This feature allows you to save Set Lists for different projects to create mood boards and Quote Requests. You can also share your Set Lists by making them public, or via email, PDF downloads, or spreadsheet files.
  
  Our admins cannot see your Set Lists, but they can see which items are added to Set Lists which are aggregated and displayed anonymously.

• Public

  You can make a set list public or private. It’s private by default.

  Making a set list public allows you to share it with other buyers who can then comment on each set list item.

• Created At

  When you create a Set List, we log the date and time.

  This helps us display your recent Set Lists on your homepage and order them in your Set Lists list. It also helps our admins sort and analyze our website's event history.

Props

• Your props

  You add props to your set list by clicking the "Add Props" button.

  We provide this feature for you to add items to set lists that are not listed on Propcart.

• Created At

  When you create a prop, we log the date and time.

  This helps us display and order your props in your set lists.

Quote Requests

• Your Quote Requests and the items added to them

  You create Quote Requests from Set Lists by clicking on the "Request Quote" button.

  This feature allows you to request quotes from our vendors and view your Quote Request history. Our admins can view your Quote Requests in their Dashboard and the Quote Request emails sent to them.

• Created At

  When you create a Quote Request, we log the date and time.

  This helps us order your Quote Requests in your Quote Requests list. You can also share your Quote Requests via email, PDF downloads, or spreadsheet files. It also helps our admins sort and analyze our website's event history.

All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal information.

Information automatically collected

In Short:Some information – such as IP address and/or browser and device characteristics – is collected automatically when you visit our Sites or Apps.

We automatically collect certain information when you visit, use or navigate the Sites or Apps. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, location, information about how and when you use our Sites and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our Sites or Apps, and for our internal analytics and reporting purposes.

We share this information with our vendors in an aggregated and anonymized fashion, e.g. statistics on how many users are engaging with their products on a daily basis. This helps our vendors curate their product listings and provide you with better search results.

We try to minimize the data collected from our users while creating the friendliest possible shopping experience. Below is an explanation of each data type and how we collect and use it.

Search History

• Query

  We save the "query" or keywords searched for in the search bar.

  This helps us learn what users are searching for. We use this information to add keywords to our existing inventory, and to provide insight into the new inventory we list or acquire.
  
  We also display your recent searches on your homepage and the search bar auto-suggest menu to make it easy for you to run that search again.

• Hostname and URL Query Parameters

  We collect the entire search state from the browser URL. This includes the website (hostname), search query, and any filters.

  This gives us context for the search so we can see what filters are popular and refine our filter list.

• Vendor Name

  We grab the vendor name from the website you're searching.

  Because the Propcart platform has a shared backend, your data will be collected from each affiliate website you visit. Our admins can only access the search history of their own visitors, and this search history is displayed anonymously.

• Hit Count

  The number of hits or items that match the search query.

  This helps us see how well our inventory keywords match user queries. We want to know which queries return zero search results, which helps us improve our keywords and new inventory items.

• Created At

  When you search, we log the date and time.

  This helps us display your recent searches on your homepage and search bar auto-suggest menu. It also helps our admins sort and analyze our website's search history.

Product Engagement

• Action

  We record a variety of events or actions you take on our website. These events are tracked based on how you engage with our inventory, like if you view an item detail page, favorite an item, or click one of the share buttons.

  On Propcart.com, we want to let our vendors know how and how often our visitors are engaging with their inventory. Since Propcart is essentially an advertising service, this kind of tracking is useful for showing our vendors we're providing them value for their dollar.

• Item ID

  All events are associated with a specific inventory item, each of which has an item ID.

  On both Propcart and our affiliate websites, we use this data to see what's popular, which helps us better curate our inventory.

• Hostname and URL Query Parameters

  We collect the entire search state from the browser URL. This includes the website (hostname), search query, and any filters.

  This gives us context for the event so we can see what filters are popular and refine our filter list.

• Vendor Name

  We grab the Vendor Name from the website you're shopping on.

  All activity data is aggregated and displayed anonymously to our vendors, meaning our admins can't see who is doing what. This is first and foremost to maintain your privacy, but also because it's not actually needed to help us make business decisions.

• Created At

  When you create an event, we log the date and time.

  This helps us display your recent views on your homepage. It also helps our admins sort and analyze our website's event history.

Like many businesses, we also collect information through cookies and similar technologies. You can find out more about this in our Cookies Policy.

Information collected through our Apps

In Short:We may collect limited information regarding your geo-location, mobile device, push notifications, when you use our apps.
