for Metalsmith Helper Alexa Skill

Last updated Mar-19

Privacy Policy:

This privacy policy describes how Metalsmith Helper (Susan Birtha) (“Metalsmith Helper”, “us” or “we”) protects your (“you”, “the user”) privacy and your data. Before using any of

our Alexa Skills (“our skills”), please read this policy and our Alexa Skills Terms of Use, as well as the Alexa Terms of Use and the Privacy Policies by the Amazon Digital Services LLC (with its affiliates, “Amazon”).

Regarding Amazon, “Alexa” means their Alexa Voice Service which includes third party services (like our skills) and other related Software.

If you use one of our skills you fully agree to this privacy policy.

General

When you use our skills you have to talk to Alexa. This voice input is sent to Amazon and us where we use it to understand what our skill should do for you. This is absolutely

necessary for our service to give you an appropriate answer.

Data

We do collect some of your data with the skill but will not share any of your personal data.

To improve our services, we analyze how often utterances are spoken and other analytics. This is done automatically by Amazon in the Amazon Developer Portal.

For this skill it is necessary to save data about you in our databases. This data is connected to your Alexa-UserId (to make you unique to the skill). It does not save

your other Amazon account information.  

We save a name that you tell Metalsmith Helper to call, along with a count of the different types of things asked for.  We also track which random metal information we

have already given you so we don't tell you again, unless you've already heard all of the information we have. Then we can reset it. 

Changes

Our skills or parts of it may change or be updated at any time. Further, this Privacy Policy might change. You can find a link to this policy on the description page of

the skill in the Alexa App or in the Alexa Store. Your continued use of our skill after changes of the Privacy Policy or the skill itself will be seen as your acceptance of both.
