This Privacy Policy describes how Matician Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “Matician,” “Matic,” “we,” or “us”) collect, use, and disclose information about you as the Matician account owner (“you”). This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect when you are using our products and services, including our Matic Membership subscription service, Matic robot and charging dock (collectively, the “Matic”), reservation program, websites, mobile applications, and Consumables Replenishment Program that includes HEPA bags, brush rolls, and mop rolls, etc. (collectively, the “Services”), or when you otherwise interact with us, such as on social media pages or through marketing communications.
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of this policy and the updated policy will become effective on the “Last Published” date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy regularly to stay informed about our information practices and the choices available to you.
We collect information you provide directly to us. For example, we collect information directly from you when you create an account, modify your profile or account, reserve or purchase a Matic Membership, respond to Matic performance reports we sent you, request maintenance or a swap of a Matic, order consumables (such as HEPA bags and mop rolls), elect to receive our newsletter, complete surveys, participate in promotions, request customer support, or otherwise communicate with us. The types of information that we collect include your name, email address, phone number, shipping and billing address, device location, payment method information, and any other information you choose to provide. We collect information about the transactions you complete with us, such as Matic Membership subscription prices, deposits, fees, returns, and the date and location of the transaction.
We also collect information from other sources, including shipping, delivery, maintenance, and other service provider partners who may provide your name or email or your Matic usage condition, and other information to us in connection with service provided. We may also receive personal information in connection with an actual or prospective business transaction. For example, we may receive your personal information from an entity we acquire or are acquired by, a successor, or assignee or any party involved in a business transaction such as a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or similar transaction, and/or in the context of an insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership.
