Pitch Black is a marketing and advertising firm, which provides among other things, certain online marketing, advertising and analytic services on behalf of persons or entities that register online at a Pitch Black Site or one of the Websites to create a client account (the “Pitch Black Clients”) to obtain those services (the “Marketing and Analytic Services”) in connection with their own websites (the “Client Site(s)”). Pitch Black Clients include authorized users, employees, agents and their affiliates or successors.
Pitch Black Clients who have engaged Pitch Black to perform those Marketing and Analytic Services have, pursuant to the “Terms of Use”, which can be found here: gofindable.com terms and conditions, authorized and granted permission to Pitch Black to gather certain information regarding third-party users of the Client Sites (the “Client Visitor Data”) including, without limitation, visitor interactions with, use, geographic location and other anonymized information.

It likewise applies when you use the Websites, mobile applications, and other online products and services that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, our “Services”), contact our customer service team, engage with us on social media, or otherwise interact with us.

We collect information you provide directly to us. For example, you share information directly with us when you create an account, fill out a form, purchase a program, communicate with us via third-party platforms, request customer support, or otherwise communicate with us. The types of personal information we may collect include your name, username, email address, business information, and any other information you choose to provide.
We do not collect payment information through our Services. We rely on third parties to process payments in connection with our Services. Any information you provide to facilitate such a payment is subject to the third-party payment processor’s privacy policy, and we encourage you to review this policy before you provide any information to the payment processor.
Information We Collect Automatically When You Interact with Us
In some instances, we automatically collect certain information, including:
Information We Collect from Other Sources
We obtain information from third-party sources. For example, we may collect information about you from social networks, accounting services providers and data analytics providers. Additionally, if you create or log into your Pitch Black account through a third-party platform (such as Apple, Facebook, Google, or Twitter), we will have access to certain information from that platform, such as your name, lists of friends or followers, birthday, and profile picture, in accordance with the authorization procedures determined by such platform.
Information We Derive
We may derive information or draw inferences about you based on the information we collect. For example, we may make inferences about your location based on your IP address or infer content preferences based on your on site history.

We share personal information in the following circumstances or as otherwise described in this policy:
Pitch Black does not host some of the content displayed on our Services. Users have the ability to post content that is actually hosted by a third party, but is embedded in our pages (an “Embed”). When you interact with an Embed, it can send information about your interaction to the hosting third party just as if you were visiting the third party’s site directly. For example, when you load a Pitch Black post page with a YouTube video Embed and watch the video, YouTube receives information about your activity, such as your IP address and how much of the video you watch. Pitch Black does not control what information third parties collect through Embeds or what they do with the information. This Privacy Policy does not apply to information collected through Embeds. The privacy policy belonging to the third party hosting the Embed applies to any information the Embed collects, and we recommend you review that policy before interacting with the Embed.

Therefore, we and our service providers may transfer your personal information to, or store or access it in, jurisdictions that may not provide levels of data protection that are equivalent to those of your home jurisdiction. For example, we transfer personal data to Amazon Web Services, one of our service providers that processes personal information for us in various data center locations across the globe, including those listed here. We will take steps to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it.
