Privacy Policy

We value your trust. In order to honour that trust, Vioron Internet Private Limited ('Youhonk') adheres to ethical standards in gathering, using, and safeguarding any information you provide.

This Privacy & IPR policy ('Policy') governs your use of www.youhonk.com, including other Youhonk-operated websites, mobile applications, products and services managed by the Company.

Please read this Policy carefully before using the Application/website ('Platform'), our services and products, along with the Terms of Use provided on the Application and website.

Your use of the website, application, services, platform or products signifies your acceptance of this Policy and your agreement to be legally bound by it. If you do not agree with this Policy, do not use the Platform, our products or our services.

This Privacy Policy has been drafted and published in accordance with the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the applicable rules. This Privacy Policy constitutes a legal agreement between you, as a user of the Platform, and us, as the owner of the Platform. You must be a natural person who is at least 18 years of age.

The Platform obtains the information you provide when you register or subscribe for the services or products.

When you register with us, you provide information such as your name, age, email address, location, phone number, transaction-related information, information you provide when contacting us for help, information you enter into our system while using the Application, Services or products, and information obtained through GPS or other means such as geographical location.

Youhonk collects information about you, your use of the Platform and the devices used to access the Platform, including your activity on the Platform, search history, search inputs, pages viewed, page-view statistics, URLs with timestamps, IP address, browser settings, operating system, network information, device settings, crash reports, system activity, date, time and referral URL.

If any individual under 18 years of age uses the Platform, such use must be undertaken only with the strict supervision and approval of a parent, legal guardian or person having parental responsibility for the child. Youhonk will not be responsible for such usage in any manner.

Use of your Personal Information

The information collected by us is used for availing our services and for functions including rendering services, maintaining the Platform, evaluating the quality and competence of our personnel, resolving complaints, coordinating order delivery, notifying you about changes to our Platform, sending service updates, detecting, preventing and addressing technical issues, improving user experience, analysing trends, conducting research, administering the Platform, learning about user behaviour and gathering demographic and usage information.

Aggregated and individual, anonymised and non-anonymised data may be transmitted to external service providers to help us improve the Platform, products and services.

We share your information with third parties only in the ways described in this Policy and may use individual data and behaviour patterns combined with personal information to provide personalised content.

Third parties may provide services that help us analyse information, personalise experiences, generate insights, or reach out to you with value-added applications, products, information and services. Youhonk is not liable for the privacy practices of such third-party entities and encourages you to read their privacy policies.

We do not sell, trade or rent your information to any third party except to provide services to you or where expressly authorised by you in writing or electronically. We may provide aggregate statistics about customers, traffic patterns and related site information to reputable third parties, but such information does not contain personally identifiable information.

Youhonk may occasionally send email notices or contact you about services, products and benefits, as these are considered an essential part of the services or products you have chosen.

We may disclose information as required by law, to enforce applicable terms, to protect rights and safety, to investigate fraud, to address security or technical issues, to respond to government requests, to trusted service providers working on our behalf, to protect against imminent harm, and with third-party service providers for personalisation and behavioural analysis.

We may share information upon merger or acquisition of Youhonk with another company. We follow a strict confidentiality policy for disclosure of confidential information to employees or personnel on a need-to-know basis, and any breach is dealt with stringently.

Transfer of Information

Your information may be transferred to and maintained on computers located outside your state, province, country or governmental jurisdiction where data protection laws may differ. Your consent to this Policy followed by submission of information represents your agreement to that transfer.

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure your information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Your Rights

You can choose not to provide requested information to us, but this may result in you not being able to use certain features or the services as a whole.

With respect to information, you may have rights or preferences to access, confirm and review information you provided; correct inaccurate or irrelevant information; request deletion or erasure of your information from publicly available pages of the Platform; receive information we hold about you in a portable format; and object to or restrict processing you are not comfortable with. This may result in discontinuation of your use of the services.

To exercise these rights, contact us at support@youhonk.com.

If you want to withdraw consent or object to use of your information for direct marketing you previously opted into, contact customer support at the above-mentioned address. Any use of your information before withdrawal or objection shall remain lawful.

Third-Party Services

We may use your information to send promotional information about third parties that we think you may find interesting if you tell us you wish this to happen.

We are not responsible for disclosure of information due to unauthorised third-party access, acts of third parties, or acts or omissions beyond our reasonable control, unless caused directly by our negligence or wilful default.

We use support services of third-party platforms or companies to direct you to payment gateways when you pay for services. Your financial information is collected, stored and retained by such third-party platforms, and they undertake measures appropriate to the risks of processing your personal information and applicable law.

You are requested to check and consent to the privacy policy of such third-party platforms to understand how they handle your information.

Once you leave the Platform, we are not liable for any use, storage, processing or collection of your information by third-party websites, payment facilitators or platforms. Such entities are governed by their own privacy policies and terms of service.

Cookies

We send cookies, which are small files containing a string of characters, to uniquely identify your browser. Cookies track preferences, help you log in faster and aggregate data to determine user trends.

This data is used to improve our offerings. Most browsers initially accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent. Some features and services may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

Alerts

We may alert you by email or phone, including RCS, SMS or phone call, to inform you about new service offerings or other information we feel may be useful to you.

Public Forums

When you use features such as discussion forums and post or share personal information, comments, messages, files or photos, that information may be available to all users and in the public domain. Such sharing is done at your own risk.

Please keep in mind that if you disclose personal information in your profile or while posting on forums, that information may become publicly available.

Security

We are concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. We provide physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect the information we process and maintain.

Access to this information is limited to authorised employees who need to know the information to operate, develop or improve the Platform, services or products.

User Data Retention

Currently, we plan to retain user information while an account is active and for at least three years afterwards. We may alter this practice according to legal and business requirements.

We will delete information based on a request received from you within a reasonable period and latest within ninety days of receiving a deletion request. However, we may retain portions of information for periods required under applicable law.

Youhonk may retain data after account deletion for reasons including unresolved account issues, unresolved claims or disputes, legal requirements, aggregated or anonymised records, fraud prevention, safety, security and legitimate business interests.

We endeavour to review, revise, update, modify, amend or correct the Policy on a regular basis, especially when significant updates are made to the technology we use. You must periodically review the Policy for the latest information on our privacy practices.

If you continue to use the Platform and services after an update, your use will be subject to the updated Policy. Continued use after amendment means you accept and understand the revised Policy. We may deny or suspend access to all or part of the service to anyone we reasonably believe has violated this Policy.
