1.
Personal Information We Collect
For the purpose of this Policy, “Personal Information” means any
information relating to an identified or identifiable individual. We obtain
Personal Information relating to you from various sources described below.
Where applicable, we indicate whether and why you must provide us
with your Personal Information, as well as the consequences of failing to do
so. If you do not provide Personal Information when requested, you may not be
able to benefit from our Service if that information is necessary to provide
you with the service or if we are legally required to collect it.
a. Personal Information
Provided by You
Account Registration. If you register to use the
Service, then you must provide us with your name, email address, and a password
in order to create an account and user profile. You may also optionally add
other information, such as a photo of yourself.
User Content. We will collect any
information you upload, post, or stream through the Service. For example, when
you interact with other users by sending them messages or video chats, the
Service will process the information you provide in such submissions, to the
extent permitted under applicable law. This may also include the information
regarding your contacts that you choose to import into the Service.
Communications. We will collect any
information which you provide to us through your communications e.g., when you
communicate with our customer support team.
b. Personal Information
Collected via Automated Means
In addition to information that you provide to us, we may collect
information about you and your use of the Service via automated means, such as
cookies, web beacons and similar technologies:
Cookies and Similar
Technologies. When you use the Service, we may send one or more cookies – small
text files containing a string of alphanumeric characters – to your device. We
may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to automatically collect
certain information. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser.
A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be used by
your browser on subsequent visits to the Service. When you use the Service, we
may also automatically collect certain information from your device by using similar
technologies, including “clear gifs” or “web beacons.” Please review your web
browser “Help” file to learn the proper way to modify your settings with regard
to such automated data collection. Please note that if you delete, or choose
not to accept, such technologies from the Service, you may not be able to
utilize the features of the Service to their fullest potential.
The automatically collected information may include your IP
address or other device address or ID, web browser and/or device type, the web
pages or sites that you visit just before or just after you use the Service,
the pages or other content you view or otherwise interact with on the Service,
and the dates and times that you visit, access, or use the Service. We also may
use these technologies to collect information regarding your interaction with
email messages, such as whether you opened, clicked on, or forwarded a message.
This information is gathered from all users.
We use this information to assess how many users access or use our
Service, which content, products, and features of our Service most interest our
visitors, what types of offers our customers like to see, and how our service
performs from a technical point of view.
Google Analytics. We work with Google
Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze
information about use of the website and report on activities and trends. You
can learn about Google’s practices by going to https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/,
and opt out of them by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on,
available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Third Party Web Beacons and Third Party Buttons. We may also implement third-party content or
advertising on the Service that may use clear gifs or other forms of web
beacons, which allow the third-party content provider to read and write cookies
to your browser in connection with your viewing of the third
party content on the Service. Additionally, we may implement third party
buttons (such as Facebook “like” or “share” buttons) that may allow third
parties to collect information about you through such third parties’ browser
cookies, even when you do not interact with the button. Information collected
through web beacons and buttons is collected directly by these third parties,
and iHrmeet does not participate in that data
transmission. Information collected by a third party in this manner is subject
to that third party’s own data collection, use, and disclosure policies.
c. Personal Information
Obtained from Third Parties
Our Enterprise
Customers. If you are using the Service as an end user of an Enterprise
Customer, we may collect Personal Information about you from our Enterprise
Customers who use the Services with their own end users, often their employees.
This information may include [your name, email address, and phone number].

believe that we have a legitimate reason to do so, to the extent permitted
under applicable law.

applicable law, we cannot and do not guarantee that information you post on or
transmit to the Service will not be viewed by unauthorized persons.
Do Not Track. Some web browsers

breach in writing. To receive a free written notice of a security breach you

We take measures to delete your Personal Information or keep it in
a form that does not permit identifying you when this information is no longer
necessary for the purposes for which we process it, unless we are required by
law to keep this information for a longer period. When determining the
retention period, we take into account various criteria, such as the type of
products and services requested by or provided to you, the nature and length of
our relationship with you, possible re-enrolment with our products or services,
the impact on the services we provide to you if we delete some information from
or about you, mandatory retention periods provided by law and the statute of
limitations.
9. Data
Transfers
The Service is hosted in the United States and is intended for
visitors located within the United States. If you choose to use the Service
from the European Union or other regions of the world with laws governing data
collection and use that may differ from U.S. law, then please note that you are
transferring your Personal Information outside of those regions to the United
States for storage and processing. Also, we may transfer your data from the
U.S. to other countries or regions in connection with storage and processing of
data, fulfilling your requests, and operating the Service. By providing any

we will make it available through the Service, and indicate the date of the
latest revision. In the event that the modifications materially alter your
rights or obligations hereunder, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you
