HotoraNight (“HotoraNight,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you provide when using our application and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect, how we use and share it, how long we retain it, and the rights and choices available to you.

By using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. Where applicable law requires your consent for a particular type of processing, we will obtain that consent before processing your information.

1. Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on how you use the Service and the permissions you provide.

Information obtained through these permissions may be processed on your device or uploaded to our servers or the servers of our service providers where necessary to provide the relevant functionality.

2. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to understand activity on the Service, maintain functionality, analyze usage, and improve our services.

The specific technologies used may vary depending on the features and technical environment of the Service.

We use the information we collect for purposes that include:

Providing and Maintaining the Service

Where the Service provides account functionality, we use relevant information to create and manage your account, authenticate users, and provide account-related features.

Fulfilling Transactions and Agreements

We may process information necessary to provide products, services, features, or other functionality you request or purchase through the Service and to perform our contractual obligations.

We may use your information to contact you by email, telephone, SMS, push notification, or other electronic communication when reasonably necessary.

This may include service updates, security notices, technical information, and other communications relating to the Service.

Marketing Communications

Where permitted by applicable law, we may send information about products, services, promotions, or events that may be relevant to you.

Where prior consent is legally required, we will obtain your consent before sending such communications.

You may withdraw consent or opt out of marketing communications at any time by using an available unsubscribe option or by contacting us.

Responding to Requests

We may use your information to respond to questions, requests, complaints, and other communications you send to us.

If HotoraNight is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, sale of assets, dissolution, or similar transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

Analytics and Service Improvement

We may analyze information to understand usage patterns, measure the effectiveness of our promotional activities, identify trends, improve our products and services, and enhance your experience.

4. When We Share Your Information

We do not share your Personal Information indiscriminately. We may disclose or transfer information in the following circumstances:

Service Providers

We may share information with third-party service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as service operation, technical support, analytics, communications, or other functions necessary to provide and improve the Service.

These providers are expected to process information only as necessary to perform their services and in accordance with applicable requirements.

Affiliates

We may share information with companies that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with us, where necessary for legitimate business or operational purposes.

Business Transfers

Personal Information may be transferred as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale of assets, or other business transaction.

Public Areas

If the Service provides areas where users can publicly interact or share information, information that you voluntarily post or disclose in those areas may be visible to other users and may potentially be distributed outside the Service.

You should therefore avoid sharing information in public areas that you do not want others to see.

With Your Consent

We may disclose your information for other purposes when you have provided the required consent.

Legal and Safety Requirements

We may disclose information when we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to:

5. Data Retention

We retain Personal Information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

Our retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected.

Account Information

Where you have an account, account information may be retained for the duration of your account relationship and for up to 24 months after account closure, where necessary to address post-termination matters, resolve disputes, or meet legal and operational requirements.

Usage Information

Application usage statistics may be retained for up to 24 months to help us understand feature usage and improve the Service.

Server logs, including IP addresses and access times, may also be retained for up to 24 months for security monitoring, troubleshooting, and related operational purposes.

Usage information may be retained for a longer period where necessary for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or other legitimate purposes.

Extended Retention

We may retain information beyond the periods described above where necessary because:

When information is no longer required, we may securely delete it, anonymize it, or otherwise remove its association with you.

Residual copies may remain in encrypted backups for a limited period in accordance with our backup procedures and may only be restored when reasonably necessary for security, disaster recovery, or legal compliance.

Anonymized information that can no longer reasonably be linked to you may be retained for statistical, analytical, research, or service-improvement purposes.

6. International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed and stored in locations outside your country, state, province, or other jurisdiction.

As a result, your Personal Information may be subject to data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction.

Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate protections are in place and that your information continues to be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have certain rights concerning your Personal Information.

These may include the right to:

Where the Service provides account settings that allow you to manage your information, you may make changes directly through those settings.

You may also contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of Personal Information that you have provided to us.

These rights are subject to applicable legal limitations. We may need to retain certain information where required by law or where we have another lawful basis to do so.

8. Security of Your Information

We take reasonable measures to protect Personal Information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet and no method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Accordingly, while we use commercially reasonable measures to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

9. Children's Privacy

HotoraNight is not intended for children.

We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from individuals under the age of 16.

If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe that a child has provided Personal Information to us, please contact us.

If we become aware that we have collected Personal Information from a child under 16, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information from our systems as soon as reasonably practicable.

Where applicable law establishes a higher age for consent to the processing of Personal Information, we will comply with the applicable age requirement and may require parental or guardian consent where legally required.

10. Third-Party Websites and Services

The Service may contain links to websites, applications, or services operated by third parties.

We do not control those third-party services and are not responsible for their content, security, privacy practices, or handling of Personal Information.

If you follow a third-party link, you should review that provider's privacy policy before providing any information.

Your interactions with third-party services are governed by the terms and policies of those third parties.

11. Legal Basis for Processing

Where applicable law requires us to identify a legal basis for processing Personal Information, we may process information on the basis of:

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time, although withdrawal will not affect processing that occurred before the withdrawal.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the Service, our data practices, legal requirements, or other operational circumstances.

When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the beginning of this Privacy Policy.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide additional notice, such as an email or a prominent notice within the Service, before material changes take effect.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically so that you remain informed about how we handle your information.
