Welcome to NewspaperCreator.com ("Website"), a website operated by Surefire Digital, LLC ("Surefire Digital," "we," "our," or "us"). Our Privacy Policy explains how Surefire Digital and its affiliates collect, use, disclose, and protect information that applies to our visual communication platform (the "Service"), and your choices about the collection and use of your information. If you do not want your information processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy in general or any part of it, you should not use our Service. This policy applies to all users of the Service, including, but not limited to, those who:
We try to be as transparent as possible because we think it's important. If you have questions or concerns, please contact us at [email protected].
We collect the following types of information about you:
(a) Information you provide us directly
We may ask for certain information when you purchase a Surefire Digital product or correspond with us (such as your first and last names, phone number, physical and e-mail address). Because we use Stripe as our payment service provider, we do not directly collect or store payment information (such as credit cards or bank information). Please refer to Stripe's Privacy Policy.
We collect information you provide to use our Service, such as text and photos you upload to use in your designs ("User Content"). We use this information to operate, maintain, improve and provide the features and functionality of the Service to you, to correspond with you, and to address any issues you raise about the Service.
User Content includes:
If you don't provide your personal information to us, you may not be able to access or use our Service or your experience of using our Service may not be as enjoyable.
(b) Information we collect automatically
We will directly collect or generate certain information about your use of the Service (such as user activity data, analytics event data, clickstream data, and cookie data) for data analytics to help us measure traffic and usage trends for the Service. We may also use third party analytics tools that automatically collect information sent by your browser of mobile device, including the pages you visit and other information, that assists us in improving the Service.
Data we collect for the use of analytics for our Service may include device and usage information such as your browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, country, location, and other technical information.
When you use our Service, we also collect your IP address. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) unless you provide that to us directly (such as when making a payment). This information is needed to maintain the security and operation of our Service.
(c) Google API
Our use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
We process your information for the following purposes, relying on one or more lawful bases (performance of a contract, legitimate interests, your consent, or compliance with a legal obligation, depending on where you live):
To provide a seamless and fast user experience, we decided to not add user account functionality. Instead, we use a public URL pipeline that is roughly described below:
(a) How we share your information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only in the following circumstances:
(b) How you can share your information
Assume that the User Content (definition) you upload is not private. Any information or content that you voluntarily disclose that falls under User Content becomes available to be read, collected, and used by the public provided they have access to an associated URL (creator, preview, download, and checkout links that include your reference ID). The public does not have access to and cannot relate any other information associated with the reference ID such as your name, address, contact information, IP address, payment information, or other sensitive information, unless you provide the public with that information yourself. For example, if you include your phone number in one of your articles, anyone with your reference ID—including the public—will be able to see it. In practice, it will be very difficult for the public to guess a reference ID that exists. You can remove User Content from the public by contacting [email protected]. Refer to Section 2 for more details.
(a) Retention
We keep your personal information, including User Content, only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Financial records are retained for at least seven years to satisfy tax laws.
(b) Deletion
You may delete your information at any time by emailing [email protected]. We will erase associated content within 30 days, unless we must keep it for longer for our legal obligations and for the security of our Service.
(c) Security
We use HTTPS, industry-standard encryption in transit, role-based access controls, and regular security reviews. Of course, no method of transmission is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, contact [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.
Residents of California can find a supplemental notice at the end of this policy.
The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.
Surefire Digital is based in the United States. If you access the Service from outside the U.S., you understand your information may be transferred to, processed, and stored in the U.S. or other countries where our service providers operate. We rely on standard contractual clauses or comparable safeguards for such transfers where required.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the new version on this page and revise the “Last updated” date. If changes are material, we will notify you by e-mail or a prominent notice on the Website before they take effect. Continuing to use the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
(a) Legal entity & data-controller
For the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), the data-controller of your personal information is Surefire Digital, LLC, USA.
(b) Representative in the EEA (Article 27 GDPR)
Because we are based outside the European Economic Area and provide services to individuals in the EEA, we are in the process of appointing an EU representative. Please check back to this Privacy Policy for updates.
