DailyRapFacts LLC (“we”, “us”, or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit RapDictionary.com or use our mobile apps “Rap Dictionary” & “Rap Dictionary+” (collectively, the “Service”).
1. Who We Are
This Service is operated by DailyRapFacts LLC. We built the Rap Dictionary app as a Free website and app. The Rap Dictionary+ app is the premium version of Rap Dictionary which is paid to enjoy ad-free and other features not on the Free Rap Dictionary app. Rap Dictionary is provided by DailyRapFacts LLC at no cost and is intended for use as is. If you choose to use our Service, then you agree to the collection and use of information in relation to this policy. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy. The terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Service. Thank you for using RapDictionary.com and our apps! Our mission is to bring high quality Rap/Hip-Hop reference and educational products to every Music or Rap/Hip-Hop fan in the world.
2. What Information We Collect
We do not ask for any Personally identifiable information in the app. Our Service does not collect any personally identifiable information about you such as your name, address, or phone number, etc. E-mails are used only for our newsletters, if you register for our newsletter. Our Service does not sell your email address or use it for advertising. However, Our Service does obtain some types of non-personally identifiable information such as your device type, browser type (Chrome or Safari, for example), the type of operating system you use (Macintosh or Windows, for example), and/or your IP address. The information collected by our Service is used for the purpose of troubleshooting, targeting ads and measuring ad effectiveness on behalf of advertisers. In some cases, we will also collect information on your preferred target language for translations and search history. This is used only for making the site easier to use and possibly for ad targeting. We collect minimal data and only what’s necessary to operate our Service effectively, we collect log data like:
• Email Address – if you sign up for our newsletter.
• Device Information – including device type, browser type, operating system, and screen resolution.
• IP Address – for analytics and security purposes.
• Cookies & Tracking Technologies – to improve user experience and analyze traffic.
NOTE: We do not collect user-generated content or personal accounts information. Information collected during payment for Rap Dictionary+ is handled by Apple & their App Store.
3. How We Use Your Information
We may use collected information for the following purposes:
• To send newsletters (only if you’ve subscribed)
• To perform analytics via services like Google Analytics
• For retargeting and marketing via services like Google AdSense and Meta Pixel
• To support purchasing via Shopify (data collected by Shopify directly, not us)
4. Cookies
Our Service uses “cookies” to enhance the user experience, such as remembering your favorite dictionary, counting visitors through tracking, and tracking by online advertisers. If you wish to use Our Service without cookies, major web browsers like Chrome and Firefox have add-ons that allow you to block them. By not blocking them and continuing to use this site, you are consenting to their use. If that is not good enough for you, then please do not use this free website; we suggest that you may wish to purchase a paper Rap Dictionary instead. Please note: all of dictionary websites use cookies.
What are cookies?
Cookies are files with a small amount of data that are commonly used as anonymous unique identifiers. These are sent to your browser from the websites that you visit and are stored on your device’s internal memory. This Service does not use these “cookies” explicitly. However, the app may use third-party code and libraries that use “cookies” to collect information and improve their services. You have the option to either accept or refuse these cookies and know when a cookie is being sent to your device. If you choose to refuse our cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of this Service.
Third Party Advertising
Much like Google and Facebook, Our Service gets its revenue from and would not exist without advertising. We use a number of third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our website. When you visit our website, we may collect your IP address and/or information about your browser or operating system, and we may share it with these companies. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements on this site and other sites about goods and services that may be of interest to you. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices about not having this information used by these companies, please go to www.networkadvertising.org/choices. If you live in the EU, please see www.youronlinechoices.com.
Third Party Cookies
In the course of serving advertisements to this site, our third-party advertisers may place or recognize a unique “cookie” on your browser. Cookies might also be used by other companies, such as Facebook.com. We use analytics software such as Google Analytics to count our visitors.
Third-party advertising companies may also create a pseudonymous ID for the purpose of recognizing you anonymously on your devices. The ID does not contain any of your identifiable personal data. We may place this ID in our first-party cookie or use a partner that places a third-party cookie and allows it to be used for online and cross-context advertising. This ID may be shared by us or on our behalf with our advertising partners and other third-party advertising companies for the purpose of enabling interest-based content, profiling, and/or targeted advertising throughout your online experience. One such third-party company is ID5. Detailed information on ID5’s data processing activities in connection with this ID and ID5’s opt-out is available here and in ID5’s platform privacy policy here: https://id5.io/platform-privacy-policy.
Cookies Opt Out
If you do not want the benefit of cookies, there is a simple procedure to manually delete your cookies. Please search the web to find out how. If you wish to opt out of data collection, please refer to the link above. There are also web browser add-ons that can accomplish this and even keep cookies from Rap Dictionary and other sites and advertisers that you choose off of your browser. If you want to hide your IP address, please instead use the Tor Browser to visit RapDictionary.
