We welcome you to MetroFlog.

MetroFlog develops technologies and services that enable people to connect, create communities and grow their business. These Terms govern your use of MetroFlog and the other products, features, apps, services, technologies, and software we offer, except where we expressly state that other terms (and not these) apply. MetroFlog S.A. provides these Products to you.

We do not charge for your use of MetroFlog or the other products and services covered by these Terms. Instead, businesses and organizations pay us to show you ads for their products and services. By using our Products, you agree that we may show you advertisements that we believe will be relevant to you and your interests. We use your personal data to help determine which ads to show you.

We do not sell your personal data to advertisers, nor do we share information that directly identifies you (such as your name, email address, or other contact information) with advertisers, unless you give us your express permission. Rather, advertisers can provide us with data such as the type of audience they want to see their ads, and we show those ads to people who may be interested in them. We provide advertisers with reports on the performance of their ads to help them understand how people are engaging with their content. See section 2 below for more information.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use your personal data to determine some of the ads you see and provide all of the other services described below. You can also go to settings at any time to review the privacy choices you have regarding how we use your data.

1. The services we provide

Our mission is to give people the power to create communities and bring the world closer together. In order to fulfill this mission, we offer you the Products and services described below:

We provide you with a personalized experience.
Your MetroFlog experience is unique and unlike anyone else's - from the posts, stories, events, announcements and other content you see in News Feed or on our video platform, to the Pages you follow and other features you can use, like trends, Marketplace, and search. We use the data we have, such as the connections you make, the options and settings you select, and what you share on or outside of our Products, to personalize your experience.

We connect you with the people and organizations that interest you.
We help you find and connect with people, groups, businesses, organizations and other entities that interest you through the MetroFlog Products you use. We use the data we have to make suggestions to you and others, such as groups you can join, events you can attend, Pages you can follow or message, shows you can watch, and people you might want to join. want to include in your friends list. The closer the ties, the better the communities work, and we believe our services are most useful when people connect with the people, groups, and organizations that matter to them.

We give you tools to express yourself and talk about issues that are important to you.
At MetroFlog you can express yourself and communicate with friends, family, and others about things that matter to you. For example, you can share status updates, photos, videos, and stories across the various MetroFlog Products you use, send messages to a friend or multiple people, create events or groups, or add content to your profile. We have also developed, and continue to explore, new ways to use technology, such as augmented reality and 360° videos, to create and share more expressive and engaging content on MetroFlog.

We help you discover content, products and services that may interest you.
We show you ads, offers, and other sponsored content to help you discover content, products, and services offered by the many businesses and organizations that use MetroFlog and other of its Products. See section 2 below for more information.

We combat harmful behavior and protect and support our community.
People will only be part of the community on MetroFlog if they feel safe. We work with dedicated teams around the world and develop advanced technical systems to detect if our Products are used inappropriately, there is harmful behavior towards others and situations arise where we can contribute to support or protect our community. If we become aware of such content or conduct, we will take appropriate action, such as offering assistance, removing content, removing or restricting access to certain features, disabling an account, or contacting law enforcement.

We use and develop advanced technologies to provide safe and functional services to everyone.
We use and develop advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence, machine learning systems and augmented reality, so that people can use our Products safely, regardless of their physical ability or the geographical region where they are located. For example, this type of technology helps visually impaired people know what item or person appears in photos or videos shared on MetroFlog. We also create sophisticated network and communication technology so that more and more people can connect to the internet in areas with limited access. We also develop automated systems to improve our ability to detect and remove abusive and dangerous activities that could harm our community and damage the integrity of our Products.

We investigate ways to improve our services,
We conduct research to develop, test and improve our Products. This includes analyzing the data we have about our users and understanding how people use our Products, for example, by conducting surveys, testing new features, and troubleshooting related features. Our Privacy Policy explains how we use data to support this research in order to develop and improve our services.

We offer consistent and seamless experiences across the Products of the MetroFlog companies.
Our Products help you find and connect with people, groups, businesses, organizations and other entities that are important to you. We design our systems so that your experience is consistent and seamless across the various MetroFlog products. For example, we use data about the people you interact with on MetroFlog to make it easier for you to connect with them on Messenger, and we allow you to communicate with businesses you follow on MetroFlog through Messenger.

We allow access to our services from anywhere in the world.
To operate our international service, we must store and distribute content and data in our data centers and systems around the world, including regions outside of your country of residence.

2. How our services are paid

Instead of paying for the use of MetroFlog and the other products and services we offer, by using the MetroFlog Products covered by these Terms, you agree that we may show you ads that businesses and organizations pay us to promote on and off of MetroFlog. We use your personal data, such as information about your activities and interests, to show you more relevant ads.

We prioritize protecting people's privacy when designing our ad system. This means we can show you relevant and useful ads without revealing your identity to advertisers. We do not sell your personal data. We allow advertisers to provide us with details such as their business goals and the type of audience they want to see their ads (for example, people between the ages of 18 and 35 who like to ride bikes). In this way, we show your ads to people who might be interested.

In addition, we provide advertisers with reports on the performance of their ads to help them understand how people are interacting with their content, both on and off MetroFlog. For example, we show them general demographic and interest information (for example, that an ad was seen by a 25-34 year old woman living in Mexico City who is interested in software engineering) so they can better understand their audience. We do not share information that directly identifies you (such as your name or email address, which can be used to contact or identify you), unless you give us your express permission.

We collect and use your personal data to provide you with the services described above. To learn how we collect and use data, see our Privacy Policy. You can control the types of ads and advertisers you see, as well as the types of data we use to determine which ads to show you.
