Your privacy is critically important to us. At HiThere we have a few fundamental principles:
● We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
● We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.
If you have questions about accessing or correcting your personal data please contact our customer service team. It is Hithere’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites. Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:Website Visitors
Like most websites, HiThere collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. HiThere’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how HiThere’s visitors use its website. From time to time, HiThere may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website. HiThere also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. HiThere only discloses logged in user IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to HiThere choose to interact with HiThere in ways that require HiThere to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that HiThere gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask players who sign up to play our games to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in monetary transactions with HiThere – by purchasing “HiThere Points” – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, HiThere collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with HiThere. HiThere does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
HiThere may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. HiThere may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, HiThere does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
HiThere discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on HiThere’s behalf or to provide services available at HiThere’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using HiThere’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. HiThere will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, HiThere discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when HiThere believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of HiThere, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of HiThere and have supplied your email address, HiThere may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with HiThere and our products. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. HiThere takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
