PING APP PRIVACY POLICY

Last Revised: Jan, 2026
Ping App ("Ping App," "we" or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. We have prepared this Privacy Policy to describe to you our practices regarding the Data we collect from users of our platform (the "Platform" and online services (collectively, the "Services").

TYPES OF DATA WE COLLECT

"Personal Data" means data that allows someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, as well as any other non-public information about you that is associated with or linked to any of the foregoing data. "Anonymous Data" means data, including aggregated and de-identified data, which is not associated with or linked to your Personal Data; Anonymous Data does not, by itself, permit the identification of individual persons. We collect Personal Data and Anonymous Data, as described below.

INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE US

We may collect Personal Data from you, such as your first and last name, profile picture, e-mail and mailing addresses, wallet address, bank account details, and Ping app username and password when you create an account to log in to our platform ("Account").

If you use our Services on your mobile device, we may collect your phone number and the unique device id number.

Our Service lets you store preferences like how your content is displayed, your location, safe search settings, notification settings, and favorite widgets. We may associate these choices with your ID, browser, or mobile device, and you can edit these preferences at any time.

When connecting to our Services via a service provider that uniquely identifies your mobile device, we may receive this identification and use it to offer extended services and/or functionality.

Certain Services, such as two-factor authentication, may require our collection of your phone number. We may associate that phone number with your mobile device identification information.

If you provide us feedback or contact us via e-mail, we will collect your name and e-mail address, as well as any other content included in the e-mail. The data collected would be used to send a reply.

We also collect other types of Personal Data that you provide to us voluntarily, such as your operating system and version, product registration number, wallet address, and other requested information if you contact us via e-mail regarding support for the Services.

We may also collect Personal Data at other points in our Service that state that Personal Data is being collected.

INFORMATION COLLECTED VIA TECHNOLOGY

As you navigate through and interact with our Service, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns, including:

Information Collected by Our Servers. To make our Service more useful to you, our servers (which may be hosted by a third-party service provider) collect information from you, including your browser type, operating system, Internet Protocol ("IP") address (a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet, which may vary from session to session), domain name, wallet address, and/or a date/time stamp for your visit.

Log Files. As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes IP addresses, browser type, Internet service provider ("ISP"), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information to analyze trends, administer the Service, track users' movements around the Service, gather demographic information about our user base as a whole, and better tailor our Services to our users' needs. For example, some of the information may be collected so that when you visit the Service, it will recognize you and the information could then be used to serve advertisements and other information appropriate to your interests.

Cookies. Like many online services, we use cookies to collect information. "Cookies" are small pieces of information that a website sends to your computer's hard drive while you are viewing the website. We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Service. This type of information is collected to make the Service more useful to you and to tailor the experience with us to meet your special interests and needs.

Pixel Tag. In addition, we use "Pixel Tags" (also referred to as clear Gifs, Web beacons, or Web bugs). Pixel Tags are tiny graphic images with a unique identifier, similar in function to Cookies, which are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to Cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, Pixel Tags are embedded invisibly in Web pages. Pixel Tags also allow us to send e-mail messages in a format that users can read, and they tell us whether e-mails have been opened to ensure that we are sending only messages that are of interest to our users. We may use this information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to a user. We do not tie the information gathered by Pixel Tags to our users' Personal Data.

How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals. We do not currently respond to "do not track" signals or other mechanisms that might enable Users to opt-out of tracking on our site.

Analytics Services. In addition to the tracking technologies we place, other companies may set their cookies or similar tools when you visit our Service. This includes third-party analytics services, including but not limited to Google Analytics ("Analytics Services"), which we engage to help analyze how users use the Service. We may receive reports based on these parties' use of these tools on an individual or aggregate basis. We use the information we get from Analytics Services only to improve our Service. The information generated by the Cookies or other technologies about your use of our Service (the "Analytics Information") is transmitted to the Analytics Services. The Analytics Services use Analytics Information to compile reports on user activity. The Analytics Services may also transfer information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process Analytics Information on their behalf. Each Analytics Service's ability to use and share Analytics Information is restricted by such Analytics Service's Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. By using our Service, you consent to the processing of data about you by Analytics Services in the manner and for the purposes set out above.
