If you are a Registered User (i.e. you use the Service in order to create or otherwise make available any Content on IQ Polls (for example, in order to create a poll)):

We collect very little personal information about our Users. The list of the 'Personal Information' IQ Polls may collect, and why we collect it, is as follows:

  • Your username, email address or any other information you provide us when you contact us. This lets us create your account, provide you with convenient and personalized access to your account, and deliver and support the Service. This information also helps us to respond to your requests for assistance (including providing account verification support if you're having difficultly accessing your account).
  • The IQ Polls products and services you use. This information helps us deliver and support the Service and respond to your requests for assistance. We also collect this information to improve our understanding of how our users use the Service.
