6.
HOW DO WE HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL LOGINS?
In

in to our services using a social media account, we may have access to certain
information about you.
Our Services offer
you the ability to register and log in using your third-party social media
account details (like your Facebook or Twitter logins). Where you choose to do
this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social
media provider. The profile information we receive may vary depending on the
social media provider concerned, but will often include your name, email
address, friends list, and profile picture, as well as other information you
choose to make public on such a social media platform.
We will use the
information we receive only for the purposes that are described in this privacy
notice or that are otherwise made clear to you on the relevant Services. Please
note that we do not control, and are not responsible for, other uses of your
personal information by your third-party social media provider. We recommend

share your personal information, and how you can set your privacy preferences
on their sites and apps.
7.
HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
In
Short: We keep your information for as
long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy notice
unless otherwise required by law.
We will only keep
your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out
in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or
permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No
purpose in this notice will require us keeping your personal information for
longer than the period of time in which users have an account with us.
When we have no
ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will
either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for
example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives),
then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any
further processing until deletion is possible.
8.
HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
In
Short: We aim to protect your personal
information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
We have implemented
appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures
designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.
However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no
electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can
be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that
hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able
to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your
information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information,
transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own
risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.
9.
WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?
In
Short: In some regions, such
as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), and Canada, you
have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal
information. You may review, change, or terminate your account at any
time.
In some regions
(like the EEA, UK, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable
data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and
obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or
erasure; (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information; and
(iv) if applicable, to data portability. In certain circumstances, you may also
have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. You

withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent at any time by
contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS
NOTICE?” below or updating
your preferences.
However, please note
that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its
withdrawal, nor when applicable law allows, will it affect the
processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful
processing grounds other than consent.

out of marketing and promotional communications: You
can unsubscribe from our marketing and promotional communications at any time
by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send, or by

service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.

time like to review or change the information in your account or terminate your

Upon your request to

requirements.

10.
CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers
and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a
Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal
your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities
monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for
recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not
currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically
communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online
tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about
that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
11.

Verification
process
Upon receiving your

other verification methods as the circumstances dictate.
We will only use
personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or
authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting
additional information from you for the purposes of verification. However, if
we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us,
we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of
