Public content, i.e., any content you post on your user profile or another user's profile, such as a post comment, is accessible to everyone, including search engines. Any information you voluntarily disclose for posting to the Platform, including your profile page information, is accessible to anyone. When you submit, post or share the content that you choose to make public on the Platform, it may be re-shared by others. You should consider who you choose to share it with because people who can see your activity on our Platform can choose to share it with others on and off our Platform, including people outside the audience you shared it with. For example, when you share a post or send a message to specific users of our Platform or accounts, they can download or re-share that content with other users across or off our Platform. Also, when you comment on someone else's post or like their content, your comment or like is visible to anyone who can see the other person's content. We reserve the right to share all public content on any social media site or online or offline forum. We will never rent or sell your Personal Information, i.e., any information that could be used to identify you, to third parties, except on an anonymized basis, unless expressly provided by us in our Terms of Use or in this Privacy Policy.
However, we may share your information (including Personal information) with select third parties including Government bodies or law enforcement agencies, if we have a good-faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to share your personal data or information to comply with any legal obligation or any government request; or to protect the rights or prevent any harm to the property or safety of the Platform, our customers, or public; or to detect, prevent or otherwise address public safety, fraud, security or technical issues.
We may also disclose your information (including Personal information) to select third parties in the following circumstances:
  • If the Platform or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data held by it about its customers will be one of the transferred assets. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, reorganization or sale of assets such that your information would be transferred or become subject to a different Privacy Policy, we will notify you in advance so you can opt out of any such new policy by deleting your account before transfer.
  • In order to enforce or apply our Terms of Use and/or any other agreements

SECURITY PRACTICES

We have in place appropriate technical and security measures to secure the information collected by us. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a username and password which enables you to access the Platform, you are responsible for keeping these details confidential.

Both Amazon Web Services and Firebase implement security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information, details of which are available at https://aws.amazon.comand https://firebase.google.com/docs/database . The privacy policies adopted by Amazon Web Services and Firebase are available at https://aws.amazon.com/privacy/?nc1=f_pr and https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy .

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

From time to time, we may amend or update this Privacy Policy. If this Privacy Policy changes in any way, we will post an updated version on the Platform. We recommend you regularly review the Platform to ensure you are always aware of our practices and any changes. Any changes to this Policy will be effective upon posting to the Platform. Your consent to the updated Privacy Policy shall be assumed by Your continued use of the Platform.

YOUR RIGHTS

You are free to remove or delete content from your user account/profile and your account/ profile at any time. However, the history of your activities and your account on our Platform remains available to us. You may correct, amend, add or delete Personal Information from your account anytime by logging in and visiting your profile page. As noted above, you may opt out of unwanted email communications from us by following the instructions in the message. However, until your account is deleted, you will continue to receive all system emails. You also have a right to ask us to review, correct and amend the information we collect about you at any time. And you also have the right to revoke your consent to collecting your information going forward. However, please note that revoking your consent may negatively affect your use of the Platform. For instance, we need access to your device's media folder to share any media from your device and post them on the Platform, which functionality will not be available to you if you do not provide us such access. You can exercise any of these rights anytime by contacting us at: grievance@quriverse.com . However, we require a reasonable period of 15 (fifteen) days to comply with any of your requests

DATA RETENTION

We do not retain your Sensitive Personal Information (defined below in this paragraph) for longer than is required for the purposes for which the information may be lawfully used. For any other content, we will entertain your deletion request. However, there is a strong possibility that copies of any public content will be retained indefinitely in our systems, including in cached and archived pages of the Platform, or if other users have copied or saved that information. In addition, due to the nature of the internet, copies of your content, including content that you have removed or deleted from your account, may also exist elsewhere on the internet and be retained indefinitely. In any case, an information collected from a user for registration on the computer resource, shall be retained for a period of one hundred and eighty days after any cancellation or withdrawal of his registration, as the case may be.
Sensitive Personal Information“ shall mean passwords and any other information that is classified as sensitive under Section 3 of the Information Technology (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011.

THIRD-PARTY LINKS

The Platform may, from time to time, contain links to and from the websites of our partner networks, Affiliates and/or any other websites or mobile applications. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that they have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before submitting personal data to these websites or mobile applications.

THIRD-PARTY EMBEDS

Some of the content that you see displayed on the Platform is not hosted by the Platform. These “embeds“ are hosted by third parties and embedded in the Platform. For example, YouTube or Vimeo videos, Imgur or Giphy GIFs, SoundCloud audio files, Twitter tweets, or Scribd documents that appear within a post on the Platform. These files send data to the hosted site as if you were visiting that site directly (for example, when you load a Platform post page with a YouTube video embedded in it, YouTube receives data about your activity).
The Platform does not control what data third-party embeds collect or what they will do with it. So, this Privacy Policy does not cover third-party embeds on the Platform. They are covered by the privacy policy of the third-party service.
Some embeds may even ask you for Personal Information, such as your email address, through a form. We do our best to keep bad actors off the Platform. However, if you choose to submit your information to a third party this way, we do not know what they may do with it. As explained above, their actions are not covered by this Privacy Policy. So, please be careful when you see embedded forms on the Platform asking for your email address or any other Personal Information. Make sure you understand to who you are submitting your information and what they say they plan to do with it. We suggest you do not submit Personal Information to any third party through an embedded form.
When you create your own third-party embeds that allow the submission of Personal information by users, you must provide near the embedded form a prominent link to an applicable Privacy Policy that clearly states how you intend to use any information collected. Failure to do so may lead the Company to disable the post or take other actions to limit or disable your account.

COMMUNICATIONS FROM US

We may occasionally send you service-related announcements when we consider them necessary (such as when we temporarily suspend the Platform for maintenance, security, privacy, or administrative-related communications). We send these to you via SMS and/or email. You may not opt out of these service-related announcements, which are not promotional and used solely to protect your account and keep you informed of important changes to the Platform.

GRIEVANCE OFFICER

Quriverse has a Grievance Officer to address your data safety, privacy, and Platform usage concerns. We will acknowledge the issue within 24 (twenty-four) hours and resolve it within 15 (fifteen) days of receiving them. You may contact our Grievance Officer at email: grievance@quriverse.com
