Your data will be kept up-to-date, collected or processed fairly and for lawful purposes only. The information you give us will be processed within legal boundaries and will be protected against any unauthorized or illegal access by internal or external parties. You are free to exercise your rights under the law as a data subject and we fully respect the same.
Your data will not be distributed to any party other than the ones consented and agreed by you or the data’s owner (exempting those compellable to be disclosed by law and legitimate requests from courts of competent jurisdiction and law enforcement authorities). Without such express consent from you or the data owner, it will not be communicated or transferred, informally or in any manner, to any other person, entity, organization or country.
We also allow you to modify, erase, reduce or correct data contained in our databases in line with your rights under the law. We will have provisions in cases of lost or corrupted data.
For protection, our officers and employees will be trained in online privacy and data security and will establish data protection practices (secure locks, data encryption, access authorization, etc.). In addition, security measures will be built through a secure network to protect data from cyber attacks.
We may change this Policy from time to time without any advance notice. You are strongly recommended to regularly review and read this Policy. Any changes in this Policy will be effective immediately upon posting in the Platform, with an updated effective date. In case of any inconsistency with any other policy of uHoo regarding data, information and system security measures, this Policy will govern.
This Policy applies to all information collected through our Products and Services, as well as any related services, sales, marketing or events. Your privacy is important to us, and we take it very seriously. The Policy exists to keep you informed as it is incorporated into and made a part of uHoo’s Terms of Use in the course of providing the Products and Services or access to the Platform to you.

We shall cease to retain your personal information or remove the means by which the data can be associated with you as soon as it is reasonable to assume that such retention no longer serves the purposes for which the personal information was collected and is no longer necessary for any legal or business purpose. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either irreversibly 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.
You understand that you are, at any time, free to unsubscribe, delete your uHoo account, uninstall our Platform, and/or submit an official request for deletion of your data, subject to this Policy. Should you wish to have your personal information deleted and destroyed or you wish to revoke or withdraw your consent in the processing or storing of your personal information, you may do so by contacting us, and we shall comply by doing the necessary deletion or anonymization.
The deletion or anonymization of your personal data shall be honored within a reasonable time from request and as long as it will not compromise, damage, injure, or make inefficient the entirety, integrity, confidentiality, and security of our Platform, and shall be performed within such reasonable time from the time of your request to do so.

6. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of physical, organizational, and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate physical, technical, and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process subject to the requirements of the law and of commercially acceptable standards for data protection.
We develop and implement measures to ensure that all uHoo personnel who have access to any personal information will strictly process such data in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. These measures may include drafting new or updated relevant policies of uHoo and conducting or sponsoring training programs to educate our stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and other interested parties on data privacy related concerns. A continuing obligation of confidentiality is also imposed on our stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or other interested parties in connection with such personal information that they may encounter during the period of which they are such with uHoo. This obligation will still apply after they cease to work with uHoo for whatever reason.
Furthermore, we will review security policies, conduct vulnerability assessments and perform penetration testing, as applicable, within uHoo on a regular schedule prescribed by our IT Team.
Our IT team will continuously evaluate this Privacy Policy, considering the following:- Safeguards to protect uHoo computer network and systems against accidental, unlawful, or unauthorized usage, any interference which will affect data integrity or hinder the functioning or availability of the system, and unauthorized access;
- Our ability to ensure and maintain the confidentiality, integrity, availability, and resilience of uHoo data processing systems and services;
- Regular monitoring for security breaches, and a process for identifying and accessing reasonably foreseeable vulnerabilities in uHoo computer network and systems, and taking preventive and corrective actions against security incidents;
- Our ability to restore the availability and access to personal information in a timely manner in the event of a security incident;
- A process for regularly testing and evaluating effectiveness of security measures; and
- Encryption of personal information during storage and while in transit, authentication process, and other technical security measures that control and limit access thereto.
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. While security cannot be guaranteed, we strive to protect the security of your information and are constantly reviewing and enhancing our information security measures. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Platform is at your own risk. You should only access the Platform within a secure environment.
