4A. Google Sign-In and Google User Data


Cork Dork allows users to create an account or sign in using Google Sign-In. If you choose to sign in with Google, Cork Dork accesses the basic account information that you authorize Google to provide. This information includes your Google account identifier, email address and name. Cork Dork does not access your Google password, profile photo, contacts, emails, Google Drive files, calendar information or other Google account data. Cork Dork does not receive or store your Google password.

We use this Google user data only to authenticate you, create and maintain your Cork Dork account, identify your account when you use the Service, synchronize your account and study progress, provide account-related features, prevent fraud or unauthorized access, provide customer support, and improve the reliability and security of the Service.

Cork Dork does not use Google user data for advertising, targeted or personalized advertising, remarketing, determining creditworthiness, or selling information to data brokers or information resellers. Google user data is not used to develop, improve or train generalized or non-personalized artificial intelligence or machine-learning models.

We do not sell Google user data. We do not transfer or disclose Google user data to third parties except to service providers that process data on our behalf as necessary to operate, secure and support the Service; when you direct or consent to the disclosure; when required by law or a valid legal process; or as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of assets subject to appropriate confidentiality and data-protection requirements. Service providers may use this information only to provide services to Cork Dork and may not use it for their own independent purposes.

Google user data associated with your Cork Dork account may be stored for as long as your account remains active and afterward only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud and enforce our agreements. When the applicable retention period expires, the data is deleted or anonymized.

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect Google user data. These safeguards include encrypted network transmission, authentication controls and limiting access to individuals and service providers that need the information to operate or support the Service. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You may revoke Cork Dork's access to your Google account through the security settings in your Google Account. Revoking Google access prevents future authentication through Google but does not automatically delete information previously stored in your Cork Dork account.

You may request deletion of your Cork Dork account and the personal information associated with it by emailing support@corkdork.io. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing a deletion request. We will delete the information unless retention is required or permitted by law, needed for security or fraud prevention, or otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.

Cork Dork's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will comply with the applicable Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

Usage Data is generally retained for a shorter period, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.

7. Transfer of Data


Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to and maintained on computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.

If you are located outside the United States and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the data, including Personal Data, to the United States and process it there.

Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer.

Cork Dork will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and no transfer of your Personal Data will take place to an organization or country unless there are adequate controls in place, including controls for the security of your data and other personal information.
