GoVoip uses a feature from Gravatar that collects and tracks personal information in order to provide seamless integration for your personalized avatar in our system.
We only process personal data lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject, such as name, email, address, phone number. We only collect personal data for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes
Brighter.Tel acts as a data processor with regard to indirect end user personal identifiable information and our Clients act as the data controller of such data. In the course of Brighter.Tel’s processing and protection of such data, all use will be in conformity with the data controller’s instructions.
Specifically, only when enabled via system permission on GoVoip Android and GoVoip iOS, Brighter.Tel shows personal contacts within the respective application. When the user sends an SMS message to one of his/her phone contacts, or when the user initiates a call to one of his/her phone contacts, the phone number is sent securely through Brighter.Tel’s API. Brighter.Tel does not store this number with any other PII, and it cannot be directly or indirectly attributed to any person or persons; Brighter.Tel stores only the phone number and pertinent metadata so as to be compliant with all applicable state and federal laws, and Brighter.Tel does not share this data with any advertisers or third parties under any circumstances. A user can revoke phone contact access on his/her mobile device at any time, and his/her app experience is not hindered or interrupted.
GoVoip Android and iOS also uses Gravatar, only when enabled via Settings and UIConfigs, which is a service that provides avatar images linked to the MD5 hash of the user’s email address. This means that, only when Gravatar use is enabled, we hash each contact’s email address and send it to Gravatar to try and retrieve an avatar image. MD5 hashes cannot be directly or indirectly attributed to any person or persons, and we only send the MD5 hash to Gravatar, never the email address in plain text. As with phone contacts, a user can revoke Gravatar access at any time in Settings or via UIConfig, and his/her app experience is not hindered or interrupted.
