In this Privacy Policy, AyiConnect will inform you about the type of information that it collects about you on the Service, how it is collected, what it will be used for, and to whom it will be shared in the event that there is a need for sharing such information.
You represent and warrant to us that you have the right and authority to provide us all information you provide about yourself or others.
This policy will also tell you how to limit AyiConnect’s use of the Personal Information that you will be providing over time and covers how AyiConnect treats your personal identifiable information that it gathers from you whenever you access the Service.

The information AyiConnect collects from its Users enables AyiConnect to personalize and improve the Services and at the same time, to allow its Users to set up an account with AyiConnect and a profile which can be used to have full access to the Service. In the course of using the Service, AyiConnect may request that Users enter certain Personal Information which may identify a User as a specific individual and can be used to contact or identify such User. These may include but not limited to a User’s email address, phone number, zip code, demographic date, and home address.

As a User of the Service, you can supply AyiConnect with various information at different point in time such as when you contact AyiConnect for customer support. At this point, AyiConnect may ask you to provide it with information about your computer or about the issue that you are trying to resolve. Such information is necessary to help AyiConnect provide relevant answers to your questions. AyiConnect may also record your request and AyiConnect’s responses for quality control purposes.

You acknowledge and agree that AyiConnect may probe or scan the images or other Content that you upload onto the Service from any third-party service (or website) or platforms for varying reasons such as fraud prevention and control, assessment of the contents posted or shared to ensure they do not violate the Agreement, and to help AyiConnect recognize Users' options, preferences, interests and activities, and to help AyiConnect provide appropriate matches between Families and Providers when necessary.
AyiConnect may gather special categories of Personal Information about you (this may include details about your ethnicity or race, philosophical or religious beliefs, political opinions, sex life, sexual orientation, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data).
You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of the Service may become inaccessible or not function properly.
The Service uses "session cookies", which improve your user experience by storing certain information from your current visit on your computer or mobile device, such as log-in information. These enable the Service to remember your log-in session so you can move easily within the Service. These session cookies have limited functionalities and expirations, and you will be required to re-enter your log-in information after a certain period of time has elapsed to protect you against others accidentally accessing your account contents and related Personal Information.
You may at any time opt-out of the automatic collection of data by setting your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of the Service may then be inaccessible or not function properly.
AyiConnect will use your Personal Information to authenticate your access to the Service. AyiConnect will only disclose your Personal Information to authorized third parties in furtherance of transactions into which you elect to enter using the Service. AyiConnect neither sells nor rents your Personal Information to anyone; AyiConnect will ensure to only use your Personal Information only when the law allows.
Your Personal Information will remain solely within AyiConnect’s secure system and will not be disclosed to any of its partners, or any other third parties, unless you verify and consent for such disclosure during the course of usage of our Service or Site. AyiConnect may, however, combine your Personal Information with that of our other Users in a consolidated database from which AyiConnect may extract aggregated information, which is statistical information about its Users as a group not containing any personally identifiable information about you or any other individual User. AyiConnect may disclose the aggregated information referenced above to third parties for their use.
AyiConnect may use your Personal Information to contact you to inform you of changes to the Service, or to otherwise communicate with you about issues regarding the Service. To opt-out of all further contact initiated by AyiConnect, please email [email protected].
AyiConnect may contact you to offer you the opportunity to avail yourself of new or additional features or services, which contact may be construed as marketing. You may later opt-out of receiving marketing-related communications from AyiConnect by sending an email to: [email protected].
AyiConnect may disclose your individual Personal Information if compelled to do so by law, governmental rule or regulation, judicial process, or court order. If AyiConnect becomes involved in a merger, acquisition or other transaction involving the sale of some or all of its assets or equity, user information, including personal information collected from you through your use of the Service, could be included in the transferred assets. Should such an event occur, AyiConnect will use reasonable means to notify you, either through email and/or a prominent notice on the Service.
AyiConnect may use your Personal Information with non-personal information that we have collected in a manner such that the end-product does not personally identify you or any other User of the Service. AyiConnect may make your Personal Information non-personally identifiable by either combining it with information about other Users (aggregating your Personal Information with information about other Users), or by removing characteristics (such as your name or email address) that make the information personally identifiable. This process is known as de-personalizing your information. You grant AyiConnect a royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable and fully transferable right and license to use your Personal Information in connection with the creation and development of analytical and statistical analysis tools relating to the use of the customer data AyiConnect collects in providing the Service (the "Analytical Data"). AyiConnect is expressly authorized to make any commercial use of the Analytical Data, including without limitation, sharing the Analytical Data with third parties, provided that AyiConnect does not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer any part of the Analytical Data that personally identifies any Users.
Your automatically collected information may be aggregated with that of our other Users in order to provide AyiConnect with important trend behavior information. The aggregated information will help AyiConnect analyze and improve the functionality and features of the Service. In addition, AyiConnect may share automatically collected information with its partners. Any automatically collected information shared with AyiConnect’s partners will not contain or be linked to any of your Personal Information.
AyiConnect may transfer its rights relating to your automatically collected information hereunder to a third party by way of merger, acquisition or asset sale.
You may, of course, decline to submit any Personal Information through the Service, in which case you may not be able to fully access and/or use the Service and/or its features. AyiConnect will retain your information for as long as your account is active. If you wish to cancel your account, please contact AyiConnect at [email protected].
To opt-out of all further contact initiated by AyiConnect, and to forestall its further use or disclosure of your Personal Information, please email [email protected].
The Personal Information that you provide to AyiConnect is stored on servers with restricted access. In addition, AyiConnect restricts access to Personal Information to its employees who need to know this information. However, no server, computer or communications network or system, or data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. AS A RESULT, WHILE AyiConnect STRIVES TO PROTECT USER INFORMATION, IT CANNOT ENSURE, GUARANTY, OR WARRANT THE SECURITY OF ANY INFORMATION YOU TRANSMIT TO AyiConnect OR THROUGH THE USE OF THE SERVICE AND YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU PROVIDE SUCH INFORMATION AND ENGAGE IN SUCH TRANSMISSIONS AT YOUR OWN RISK. ONCE AyiConnect RECEIVES A TRANSMISSION FROM YOU, AyiConnect WILL ENDEAVOR TO MAINTAIN THE SECURITY OF SUCH TRANSMISSION ON ITS SYSTEMS. YOU MAY MODIFY YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU HAVE DISCLOSED TO AyiConnect BY FOLLOWING THE APPLICABLE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE SERVICE.
This Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of third party websites linked to the Service.

You should refer to the privacy policies and statements of other websites or contact the respective webmasters of those websites to obtain information regarding their information collection, use and disclosure policies. When you have clicked on a third-party logo or URL displayed on the Service which links you to a different website, this Privacy Policy no longer applies and you must read the privacy policy of the third party to see how your Personal Information will be handled on their website.
