Technocraft collects information in different ways and we use this information primarily to provide the user with the Service. We also may use this information to personalize and continually improve the Service.

Personal Information is collected at the consent of the user and is used to manage the user’s account and for other purposes as specified below. In the case that the user engages a third party service provider to manage your account, including but not limited to Amazon, Google, or the App Store, Technocraft will have access to the Personal Information you provide to such a third party service provider for the purpose of managing your account with us. Personal Information is not shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or in special circumstances.
We also may provide you with the opportunity to connect to Social Networking Services (SNS), including but not limited to Facebook and Twitter, through our Site or the Application. In this case, we will request permission to access your basic information, which includes your name, profile picture, birth date, gender, networks, groups, list of friends, and any other information that you have made public, as well as necessary information for accessing the information above, including your password and user ID.
