We may also carry out any purpose other than the ones listed above for which the information was collected. Should this be the case, we will inform you of the purpose in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR INFORMATION
Please note that depending on the purpose for which we process your information, we may rely on more than one legal basis for processing. The legal bases for processing your information as set out in this Privacy Policy are as follows:
(i) Where you have given your consent, which you may withdraw at any time by contacting us at mark.wuuu@hotmail.com;
(ii) Where use of your information is necessary to perform our obligations under a contract with you (for example, to comply with the End User License Agreement; and/or our contract to provide our services to you);
(iii) Where use of your information is necessary to seek potential cooperation with you if you are an author recruited by us; and/or
(iv) Where use of your information is necessary for our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of others (for example, to guarantee safety and security of the App; operate our business; ensure safe environments for our staff and visitors; comply with legal requirements and defend our legal rights; prevent fraud and infringement, and to know the users to whom we are providing services).
When we rely on legitimate interest, we do so because we have determined that this processing is required to be performed by us or a third party for legitimate interest. In making this determination we have considered your rights under applicable laws, and balanced them against our legitimate interests. If you have any queries, you can contact us at mark.wuuu@hotmail.com.
SHARING OF YOUR INFORMATION
We may share information about you as follows or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy:
(i) We may share your information with third parties and service providers that provide products or services to us, that help us market or advertise to you (including co-branded marketing and advertising), or that provide products or services to you.
(ii) When you participate in the interactive areas of the Services or interact with us on third party social media sites, certain information that you provide may be displayed publicly, such as your name, photos and other information you choose to provide;
(iii) We also provide information and content to research partners and academics to conduct research that advances scholarship and innovation that support our business or mission, and enhances discovery and innovation on topics of general social welfare, technological advancement, public interest, health, and well-being;

We also may share aggregated or de-identified information, which cannot reasonably be used to identify you.
STORAGE OF YOUR INFORMATION
All your information is stored with secure methods and with limited/restricted access to persons authorized by us. Please note that currently your information collected by us is stored in countries including Germany, the United States of America, and Singapore.
We may store information on remote servers operated by a cloud service provider to us as well as storing it in our own “Data Center” located in the United States of America. Regardless of where you use the App or provide information to us, your information may be transferred to and maintained on servers or Data Center located outside the country in which the data was collected.
SECURITY
The security of your information is important to us. We implement and maintain following security measures intended to protect against unauthorized use, disclosure, alteration or destruction of the information we collect and maintain:
(i) we will use technologies of encryption or pseudonymization to protect information;
(ii) we will limit the access to information to authorized employees only; and
(iii) we will establish systems to ensure you can restore the availability and access to information.
However, please be aware that, despite our efforts, no data security measures, no method of transmission over the Internet, and no means of electronic or physical storage, is absolutely secure. As such, you acknowledge and accept that we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information transmitted to, through, or on the Services or via the Internet and that, any such transmission is at your own risk.
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access to your account, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. Please do not to share a password with anyone.
INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER OF YOUR INFORMATION
For users located in the United States of America
All your user information we collect will be stored safely in the United States of America and will not be transferred to other regions or countries.
For users located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”)
Your information may be transferred by us in certain circumstances to countries outside the EEA, including our offices around the world or the server located in the United States of America. By using our Services or submitting information, you explicitly authorize such transfer and subsequent processing, which may lead to a less degree of data protection as you may have under your country’s laws. International transfers of your information will be protected by appropriate safeguards, namely the standard data protection model clauses adopted by the European Commission or a supervisory authority, which we will incorporate into our agreements with such transferees of information. You can request a copy of contract clauses for transferring information outside the EEA by contacting mark.wuuu@hotmail.com.
All data is transferred or accessed using either a secure transport layer or encrypted algorithm. A majority of the data collected is then centralized and hosted within secure data center facilities. As a user, you can ask for a copy of the adopted standard contractual clauses at mark.wuuu@hotmail.com.
ADVERTISING AND ANALYTICS SERVICES PROVIDED BY OTHERS
We may allow third-party partners to serve personalized ads on our behalf across the Internet and to provide analytics services. The ads may be based on various factors such as the content of the page you are visiting, information you enter such as demographic data, usage data and other information we collect from you. These ads may also be based on your current activity or your activity over time and across other websites and online services and may be tailored to your interests.
These third-party partners will collect, use, store, share or otherwise process your information solely for the purpose of providing you personalized ads. We neither have access to, nor does this Privacy Policy govern, the use of tracking technologies that may be placed on your device you use to access the services provided by such non-affiliated third parties. If you do not agree on such third-party partners’ privacy policy or are unwilling them to process your personal information, please do not agree or accept this Privacy Policy.
In addition to the above, we also provide advertisers and/or advertisement agencies with reports about the kinds of people seeing their ads and how their ads are performing. To provide you with personalized ads, we also share certain information with these third parties, such as your IP, GAID, device version, country code, and network type.
We also work with third-party partners who help us provide and improve the App and our Services. We do not sell any of your information to anyone. We also impose strict restrictions on how our partners can use and disclose the information we provide.

YOUR CHOICES
(i) Location Information
With your consent, we may collect information about your actual location when you use our mobile applications. You may stop the collection of this information at any time by changing the settings on your mobile device, but note that some features of our mobile applications may no longer function if you do so.
(ii) Tracking Technologies
To collect the information in Section 1 above, we and the third parties may use tracking technologies such as tags, SDKs, tracking pixels, and other similar technologies. We use these technologies in order to offer you a more tailored experience in the future, by understanding and remembering your particular using preferences.
An SDK is a set of tools and/or code that we embed in the App to allow third parties to collect information about how users interact with the Services.
Tracking pixels (sometimes referred to as web beacons or clear GIFs) are tiny electronic tags with a unique identifier embedded in websites, online ads, and/or email that are designed to: (a) collect usage information like ad impressions or clicks and email open rates; (b) measure popularity of the Services and associated advertising; and (c) access user cookies. Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive or in device memory that help us improve the Services and your experience, see which areas and features of the Services are popular, and count visits.
As we adopt additional technologies, we may also gather information through other methods. Please note that you can change your settings. For example, most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove or reject browser cookies. Please note that if you choose to remove or reject cookies, this could affect the availability and functionality of the Services.
(iii) Push Notifications
With your consent, we may send promotional and non-promotional push notifications or alerts to your mobile device. You can deactivate these messages at any time by changing the notification settings on your mobile device.
(iv) Your California Privacy Rights
California law permits residents of California to request certain details about how their information is shared with third parties for direct marketing purposes. If you are a California resident, you may request this information once per calendar year by sending emails to us via mark.wuuu@hotmail.com.
RETENTION OF YOUR INFORMATION
We keep your information for 10 years. If you continue to use the Services when such 10-year period expires, the storage period of your information will continue for another 10 years. If you no longer use the Services, we will delete your information on a timely basis.
