3.1 ScanRewards is a mobile application that enables App User consumer shoppers to share shopping trip receipts and related shopping information and earn rewards for participation. NielsenIQ uses the shopper panel information in its market research and information services to provide manufacturers, retailers and other companies with data to better understand shopper purchasing habits and trends and inform product development and marketing decisions.  If the functionality is available in your country of residence, the ScanRewards App will enable you to capture and submit digital images of receipts that you receive for purchasing certain goods and services. If the ScanRewards functionality is available in your country of residence and if you have opted into automated email collection or other online account collection (e.g., retailer account), we may obtain your receipt information automatically and directly from your email or online retailer account(s). You grant NielsenIQ the perpetual right and license to use the information derived from the receipts and related shopping information submitted to or collected through the Service for any purpose relating to the business of NielsenIQ and our affiliates and consistent with the Privacy Notice.  
‍

3.2 From time to time, we may also present you with surveys within the ScanRewards App itself or send you emails containing links to surveys in which you may be asked to participate (and completion of certain surveys may be required to continue to use the Services and participate in the rewards program).
