This Privacy Policy explains how MintPoll LLC (“MintPoll,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you use the MintPoll website, mobile application, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).
MintPoll is a consumer rewards app that connects users with surveys, offers, and other earning opportunities from MintPoll and our research, advertising, and payment partners. By using the Service, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
2. Information We Collect

- Profile information: demographic or eligibility information you submit in the app, including information used to match you with surveys and offers.
- Referral information: invite or referral codes you enter, your referral code, and referral activity associated with your account.
- Support communications: information you provide when you contact us for support, account recovery, or privacy-related requests.
B. Rewards, Transactions, and Payout Information

- Device and app data: device identifier, app platform, app usage signals, push notification tokens, and related technical metadata.
- Locale and timezone data: device locale and timezone information submitted by the app during sign-in and app-open events.
- Network data: IP address, derived IP-based information such as country, network/provider information, VPN or proxy detection results, and hashed IP-derived values used for fraud prevention and rate limiting.
- Mismatch and integrity signals: signals that compare country, locale, timezone, analytics, device, and network information to help identify abuse, duplicate accounts, or other policy violations.
D. Analytics and Usage Information
- App analytics: information about how you interact with the Service, such as screen views, feature usage, survey opens, reward claims, payout requests, and related analytics events.
- Website and service logs: standard log data such as browser or device type, referring URLs, timestamps, and diagnostic information.
E. Information from Partners and Service Providers
- Survey and offer partners: eligibility, completion, validation, reward, and reversal information related to opportunities you access through MintPoll.
- Authentication, analytics, and infrastructure providers: information necessary to authenticate users, operate the Service, detect abuse, and measure app performance.
- Payment-related providers: information necessary to validate or send payouts, review risk, and troubleshoot payout issues.
3. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- Provide and operate the Service: create accounts, authenticate users, maintain profiles, show opportunities, track rewards, and process payouts.
- Match users with opportunities: use profile and eligibility information to determine which surveys, offers, and promotions may be available to you.
- Prevent fraud and abuse: detect duplicate accounts, bot activity, suspicious networks, VPN or proxy usage, identity inconsistencies, reward abuse, payout abuse, and other violations of our Terms.
- Review rewards and payouts: validate reward eligibility, apply reversals, review payout requests, enforce payout restrictions, and prevent unauthorized or high-risk redemptions.
- Communicate with you: send account notifications, payout updates, security notices, support responses, and other service-related communications.
- Improve MintPoll: analyze usage patterns, improve app stability and performance, and develop new features and promotions.
- Comply with legal obligations: enforce our Terms, respond to lawful requests, and protect the rights, property, and safety of MintPoll, our users, and our partners.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:
- Service providers: with vendors and platforms that help us operate MintPoll, including hosting, authentication, analytics, notifications, support, and payment-related services.
- Survey, offer, and reward partners: when necessary to present partner opportunities, validate participation, attribute completions, review reversals, prevent fraud, or issue rewards. Depending on the opportunity, this may include limited technical, eligibility, transaction, or identifier data needed for partner operations.
- Legal and safety reasons: when required by law, legal process, or government request, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to enforce our agreements or protect users, partners, or MintPoll.
- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of some or all of our business or assets.
When you leave MintPoll and enter a survey or offer experience provided by a third party, that partner may collect information under its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review the privacy practices of those third parties.
5. Fraud Prevention, Risk Review, and Automated Signals
To protect the Service and our users, MintPoll uses technical, behavioral, and partner-provided signals to assess fraud and abuse risk. These signals may include device identifiers, IP-derived information, VPN or proxy detection, locale and timezone information, payout email validation, duplicate-account indicators, referral integrity checks, analytics-derived country information, and other consistency or anomaly checks.
These signals may be used to flag, review, delay, restrict, reverse, or deny rewards, payouts, promotions, referrals, account creation, or account access when we detect elevated fraud, policy, or security risk.
6. Data Retention and Security
- Security: We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect personal information, including protections for data in transit and at rest where appropriate. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
- Retention: We retain information for as long as needed to operate the Service, maintain your account, process rewards and payouts, prevent fraud, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
- Account deletion: If you delete your account, we will handle deletion in accordance with our account deletion flow and posted account deletion terms. See our Delete Account page for additional details.
