Although the sections above describe our primary purpose in collecting your information, in many situations we have more than one purpose. For example, if you sign up for Services, we may collect your information to complete that transaction, but we also collect your information because we have a legitimate interest in maintaining your information after the transaction is complete. This allows us to quickly and easily respond to any questions or issues related to your Services. As a result, the collection and processing of your information can be based on different contexts, such as your consent, our need to perform a contract, our legal obligations, and/or our legitimate interest in conducting our business.

At Buildubai, we collect personal information through various methods. This process occurs in three main ways:

• When You Provide It Directly to Us: You give us personal information when you register for an account or interact with us. For instance, when you communicate with us via email, customer support inquiries, or posts to customer message boards and forums, we collect that information. You may also provide data through other interactions, such as responding to surveys, submitting forms, or participating in contests or promotions. Please note that if you choose not to provide certain requested information, you might not be able to fully access or use our Services, particularly if that data is essential for service delivery or legally required.
• When You Use Our Services: As you interact with our Services or Applications, we automatically collect information related to your activity. This includes details such as your IP address, device type, browser type, the web page you visited before arriving at our Website, the specific pages you visit on our site, how long you stay, and identifiers linked to your devices. If permitted through your device settings, we may also collect location data via our applications. We gather some of this information using cookies and similar tracking technologies, and other details are collected automatically via your browser or device.
• From Third Parties: We may receive personal information from third parties, especially if you register for an account using a Third-Party Service. In this case, the Third-Party Service may provide us with account details such as your name and email address, but we do not collect or store passwords associated with these services. Your privacy settings on the Third-Party Service typically determine the data shared with us. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these services and adjust your privacy settings if necessary to ensure you are comfortable with the information being shared.

At Buildubai, we prioritize your privacy and do not share, rent, sell, or disclose your personal information to marketers or unaffiliated third parties. However, we do share your personal data with trusted entities in the following circumstances:

• Third-Party Service Providers: We share personal information with selected third-party service providers, contractors, and processors who assist in providing services to Buildubai. These partners may use artificial intelligence in their service delivery, subject to contractual agreements that limit their use of personal data. Our service providers offer a variety of services, such as website hosting, data analysis, marketing, IT infrastructure, customer service, email delivery, and auditing. These providers may require access to your personal information to perform their services. We mandate that they use or disclose this information only as necessary for their tasks and in line with our Privacy Policy, or as required by law.
• Third-Party Plugins and Social Networks: We may share your personal information with third-party plugins, social media platforms, or similar services to enhance your experience, at your direction, or when you engage with these services intentionally. For example, when you use a third-party service to create or log into your account, your personal data may be shared with that service.
• Business Partners and Resellers: We share personal information with our business partners, value-added resellers, or channel partners to facilitate sales in situations where Buildubai does not directly sell our products or services due to factors such as location, industry type, or other reasons determined by us.
• Law Enforcement or Protecting Rights and Interests: We may disclose your personal information if necessary to comply with legal requirements, protect our or others' rights, property, or interests (such as enforcing our Terms of Use), or prevent fraud or abuse of Buildubai or our customers. This includes responding to lawful requests by public authorities, such as national security or law enforcement requirements. We reserve the right to release information to law enforcement or government officials if we deem it necessary or appropriate.
• Fraud Prevention: We share personal data for fraud protection purposes to minimize risks associated with fraud, ensuring the safety of Buildubai, our partners, and other users of our services.
• Affiliates and Acquisitions: In the event of a reorganization, merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction. We also share information with our corporate affiliates (such as parent companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other entities under common control). If another company acquires or plans to acquire Buildubai, our assets, or our business, we may share your personal information with that company, even during the negotiation stage. Additionally, your information may be shared as part of a bankruptcy, corporate reorganization, or other sale or transfer of Buildubai's assets.
• Other Disclosures with Your Consent: In certain cases, we may ask for your consent to share your information with other third parties not covered by this Privacy Policy.

You have several options regarding your personal information, and Buildubai is committed to respecting your rights. Here's how you can manage your personal data:

• Access to Your Personal Information: You have the right to request access to your personal information. Additionally, under applicable laws like CPRA, VCDPA, and others, you can opt out of the sale of your personal information and limit the use or disclosure of sensitive personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact us at the address provided below. If required by law, we will grant you access to the personal information we hold about you in a portable format.

You may request the deletion of your personal information by contacting us at the address below. In cases where deletion is required by law, we will honor your request; however, we may still need to retain certain information to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, or fulfill other business purposes.

Even if you choose to opt-out of promotional emails, we may still send you service-related communications.
• Revocation of Consent: If you revoke your consent for the processing of personal information, we may no longer be able to provide you with our services. In certain cases, we may limit or deny your request to revoke consent if the law allows us to do so, or if we cannot verify your identity sufficiently. You can revoke your consent by contacting us at the address below.
• Exercising Your Rights: To exercise any of the rights described above, please send your written requests or inquiries to [email protected]. Depending on your jurisdiction, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

Once verified, we will use reasonable efforts to supply, correct, or delete your personal information. If we are unable to verify your identity or link the request to your information, we cannot fulfill your request. If we cannot comply with all or part of your request, we will provide an explanation.

Buildubai has adopted appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial safeguards to secure the personal information we process.

Your account is secured by a password to maintain your privacy and security. We periodically review our information collection, storage, and processing practices, including physical security measures, to prevent unauthorized access to our systems.

We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party website, application, or service you interact with.

We continuously monitor and update our practices to ensure compliance with evolving data protection laws. From time to time, we may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the law, industry best practices, or product enhancements. Any changes will be posted on this page or communicated to you in writing, as required by law. The latest version of this Privacy Policy will be available to view on our Website.
