This is the Privacy Policy for Pogo Technologies, Inc. and its affiliates and subsidiaries. In this policy, we call ourselves “Pogo,” “we,” “us,” or “our.” We refer to you, the person using our app or Chrome extension or visiting our website, as "you" or “your”.
Pogo offers a service that allows you to earn rewards from your everyday purchases, identify financial savings opportunities, and get paid for sharing your data with Pogo and certain third parties (e.g., sharing under the Data Dividends program).
To the extent you have opted out of Data Dividends, then, going forward:
Market Research: We will not use your Personal Information covered under Data Dividends to share anonymized data and insights with Participating Businesses for market research.
Personalized Ads: We will not share your Personal Information covered under Data Dividends with Participating Businesses for personalized advertisements on or off the Service.
Opting in or opting out of Data Dividends does not restrict us from using your Personal Information internally (including through our service providers) for research/model training purposes, to target you with personalized ads or offers, to provide you with other services on the Service, and for any other purpose set forth in our Privacy Policy. To stop our collection of certain Personal Information categories on a go-forward basis, you can unlink certain Personal Information sources; relatedly, within the Data Dividends Control Center, there are separate toggles for certain Personal Information categories that govern our go-forward collection of the data. We may still process the Personal Information previously collected before you unlinked/toggled off except where not permitted under applicable law. You may also have opportunities to separately consent to share certain Personal Information with third parties even if you are not enrolled in Data Dividends, such as to receive certain services (e.g., Location Rewards).
Learn more about Data Dividends (including what Personal Information is covered under Data Dividends) here.
We may keep your Personal Information for as long as needed to provide the Services or as required under applicable law, unless you have requested that we delete it by submitting a request through our Privacy Center, deleting your account through the Pogo App, or contacting us at privacy@joinpogo.com. We may not be able to delete your information in all circumstances.

Transaction Data is automatically collected from Payment Credentials on a continuous basis except to the extent a Payment Credential is unlinked from your Pogo account.

We also collect purchase information, such as item/SKU-level data, through email accounts or digital consumer accounts (e.g., Amazon) that you link to your Pogo account (collectively, the "Linked Accounts"). We allow you to link email accounts or digital consumer accounts to your Pogo account, as directed by you, through the use of your login credentials to such accounts so that Pogo can retrieve purchase information from digital receipts from historical (up to 2 years prior) and future purchases in your digital consumer account or email ("Digital Purchase Data").

Pogo will only use such Health Information with your permission and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. For more information, please see the Health Information section below.

The account credentials that you enter for these accounts are not stored with Pogo but are encrypted and stored locally on your device.
While linked, every time you open the Pogo app, Pogo will automatically collect Digital Purchase Data and Digital Account Data from your Linked Accounts.
This includes information collected when you submit pictures of physical receipts to the App (the “Receipt Data”). For example, Receipt Data may include details of what was purchased, the merchant/store from which the goods/services were purchased, the amount spent, the date/time of the purchase, and the payment method used.

For example, information you provide when answering survey questions in the App, which may include information about your activities/interests, opinions about products/services, household information, and other demographic information.
If opted-in to sharing “Chat Logs”, we will collect your chat logs with large language models (LLMs) (e.g., ChatGPT) or other sources to the extent you’ve connected your account on such sources to your Pogo account.
With your permission, we may also collect your health information and use it to provide the Services, including, for example, to match you with surveys from pharmaceutical and other health-related companies for market research, to derive certain attributes and health information inferences about you based on the information we collect from you, to facilitate Data Dividends, to provide you with personalized advertising and other personalized content (including through location-based services where permitted by applicable law) – for more information on all our uses of Health Information please see "Health Information" in the "How we use and protect your Personal Information". section below and our Washington and Nevada Consumer Health Data Privacy Notice.

We share location data with third-party adtech companies, such as InMarket, to use in accordance with their own policies or practices, including for personalized advertising, ad campaign measurement and attribution, and analytics. You can learn more about how InMarket collects, uses, shares, and otherwise processes your data by reviewing the InMarket privacy policy available here.
You may change your device or Pogo settings to restrict access or our sharing of location data, respectively.
We use the Google Maps API to gather information about your location, including verifying your self-reported home address. The use of the Google Maps features and content is subject to the Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service available at https://maps.google.com/help/terms_maps.html and the Google Privacy Policy available at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
If opted-in to the "Drive to Save" program, we will collect information about your driving behavior, such as driving distance, the location of each trip, and your speed, acceleration, and braking habits (collectively, "Driving Data").
If opted-in to sharing “App Usage Data”, we will collect data related to your usage of mobile apps. This may include information about how much time you spend in apps installed on your device, app name, and the date and time of when the app was used.
For example, information you provide when you contact us with questions, feedback, or otherwise correspond with us online.
For example, information about how you use the Service and interact with us, including information associated with any content you submit to us, and information you provide when you use any interactive features of the Service.
For example, your preferences for receiving communications about our activities, events, and publications, details about how you engage with our communications, and emails you receive from specific businesses.
In order to verify a user’s identity in connection with a request to cash out, or to confirm that users have not created multiple accounts, we may request access to a user’s mobile camera and require them to take a real-time selfie image of their face. We use a third-party technology installed on Pogo’s servers to analyze the selfie image and, using a combination of machine learning tools and statistical algorithms, generate facial biometric information about the user’s face. We use this information to perform identity verification and confirm that there are not duplicate accounts on the Service.
We may store facial biometric information generated from the images by our third-party software only as long as necessary for fraud detection. We do not use, disclose, or retain facial biometric information for any other commercial purpose.
You may choose to upload or record videos to the Service. Those videos will be stored as long as your account is active, unless you ask us to delete them.
We may collect additional types of information which we will use in accordance with this Privacy Policy or as otherwise disclosed at the time of collection.
We also obtain Personal Information from third parties, which we often combine with Personal Information we collect either automatically or directly from you. We may receive the same categories of Personal Information as described above from the types of third parties listed herein.
We may maintain pages on social media platforms, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google, YouTube, Instagram, and other third-party platforms. When you visit or interact with our pages on those platforms, the platform provider’s privacy policy will apply to your interactions and their collection, use and processing of your Personal Information. You or the platforms may provide us with information through the platform and we will treat such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We may receive your information from Linked Accounts, including Digital Account Data.
At your request, we may also collect Health Information gathered or generated by your use of any third-party health application, system, program, or device that you connect to the Service (the "Connected Health Systems").
For example, if you choose to connect Apple's Health app on your iPhone or Apple Watch, we may receive information such as Activity History (i.e., steps taken, workouts, sleep), Health Vitals (i.e., body temperature, heart rate), Self-Reported Characteristics (i.e., height, weight, body fat percentage, gender), Clinical Records (i.e., protein samples, lab results), and information about the source of such data.
The data we receive from these third-party sites is dependent upon that third party's policies and your privacy settings on that third-party application, system, program, or device. You should always review and, if necessary, adjust your privacy settings on third-party websites and services before linking or connecting them to our Service.
Our service providers that perform services solely on our behalf, such as payment processors, video and audio providers, or survey and certain advertising/marketing providers, collect Personal Information and may share some or all of this information with us.
Users of the Service may refer friends or other contacts to us. If you are an existing user, you may submit a referral only if you have permission to provide the referral’s contact information to us so that we may contact them.
We may receive Personal Information about you from third-party sources. For example, a business partner may share your contact information with us if you have expressed interest in learning specifically about our products or services or the types of products or services we offer. We may obtain your Personal Information from other third parties, such as advertising partners (e.g., mobile measurement partners, advertisers/agencies), publicly available sources, and data providers. Personal Information obtained from these third parties may include payroll information (e.g., hours worked, wages earned, and tax withholdings) and auto insurance information (e.g., car you own, your driving history, and auto insurance plan coverage and price). We also may obtain your information from brand partnerships or through transactions such as mergers and acquisitions.
Through the provision of our Service, we may also process deidentified information that cannot reasonably be used to infer information about, or otherwise be linked to, a particular consumer or household. Pogo commits to maintain and use the information in deidentified form and will not attempt to reidentify the information, except in instances where necessary for determining whether the deidentification process used by Pogo satisfies the requirements under applicable law.

Please note that when you opt out of receiving interest-based advertisements, this does not mean you will no longer see advertisements from us or on our online services. It means that the online ads that you do see from these self-regulatory program participants (or other participants that may provide an opt-out mechanism) should not be based on your interests. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’ opt-out options or programs, or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs. In addition, third parties may still use cookies to collect information about your use of our online services, including for analytics and fraud prevention as well as any other purpose permitted under those self-regulatory programs.
We make available certain privacy settings through the Data Dividends Controls CenData Dividends Controls Center in the app. If you use our App, you can decide whether to permit us to access your precise location data. Your device settings may provide the ability for you to revoke our ability to access location data. Withdrawing access to certain device information may affect the features and functionality of the Service and may inhibit our ability to provide you with the Service you have requested. For example, if you opted in to the "Drive to Save" program and your test drive is active, revoking our ability to access location data will put the test on hold. We also will not be able to provide you with Location Rewards.

These links are not an endorsement of, or representation that we are affiliated with, any third party. In addition, our content may be included on web pages or in mobile applications or online services that are not associated with us. We do not control third party websites, mobile applications or online services, and we are not responsible for their actions.

The Service is not directed to, and we do not knowingly collect Personal Information from, anyone under the age of 13.

We will usually store the Personal Information we collect about you for no longer than necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, and in accordance with our legitimate business interests and applicable law. However, if necessary, we may retain Personal Information for longer periods of time, until set retention periods and deadlines expire, for instance where we are required to do so in accordance with legal, tax and accounting requirements set by a legislature, regulator or other government authority.
To determine the appropriate duration of the retention of Personal Information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the Personal Information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of Personal Information and if we can attain our objectives by other means, as well as our legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and other applicable obligations.
Once retention of the Personal Information is no longer necessary for the purposes outlined above, we will either delete or deidentify the Personal Information or, if this is not possible (for example, because Personal Information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store the Personal Information and isolate it from further processing until deletion or deidentification is possible.
We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you including by updating the “Effective date” at the top of this Privacy Policy. Any modifications to this Privacy Policy will be effective upon our posting the new terms or upon implementation of the new changes on the Service (or as otherwise indicated at the time of posting).
