Use of Personal Information

We use the personal information we collect to provide and improve Hydropost. This includes:

  • Allowing you to create and share content with friends and groups in Hydropost.
  • Facilitating communication with your friends and groups.
  • Providing you with personalized content and recommendations.
  • Improving Hydropost's features and functionality.
  • Analyzing Hydropost's usage to improve and personalize our services.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your personal information with third-party service providers who assist us in providing Hydropost, such as hosting, customer support, and analytics. We require these service providers to protect your personal information and only use it for the purposes for which it was disclosed.

We may also disclose your personal information as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, legal order, or other lawful request for information.


Security of Personal Information

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. We implement technical and organizational measures to safeguard your information, such as encryption and access controls. However, no security measure is perfect, and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.


Your Choices

You have the ability to control certain types of personal information that we collect. For example, you can choose not to grant Hydropost access to your gallery, camera, microphone, contact list, or notifications. However, this may limit your ability to use Hydropost's features.


How Long Do We Keep Your Information

We keep your information only so long as we need it to provide Hydropost to you and fulfill the purposes described in this policy. This is also the case for anyone that we share your information with and who carries out services on our behalf. When we no longer need to use your information and there is no need for us to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we’ll either remove it from our systems or depersonalize it so that we can't identify you.


How Do We Protect Your Information?

Our goal is to thoroughly test the service under real-life usage conditions, gather feedback from users regarding their experience, and make the service as convenient and safe as possible. Please note that Hydropost does not guarantee seamless performance, constant availability, or protection against content damage or loss. We explicitly disclaim all warranties, including implied guarantees of good performance, merchantability, non-infringement of rights, or safe use, as well as guarantees arising from any course of business or trade. Although we have implemented security measures, we are continually working to improve them. Therefore, please exercise caution while sharing confidential or sensitive information in the product. We cannot guarantee the 100% security of your data at this time.


Is the information collected through the Hydropost Service secure?

We take precautions to protect the security of your information. However, neither people nor security systems are foolproof. In addition, people can commit intentional crimes, make mistakes or fail to follow policies. Therefore, while we use reasonable efforts to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If applicable law imposes any non-disclaimable duty to protect your personal information, you agree that intentional misconduct will be the standards used to measure our compliance with that duty.


Sale of Business

We reserve the right to transfer information to a third party in the event of a sale, merger or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Hydropost or any of its Corporate Affiliates (as defined herein), or that portion of Hydropost or any of its Corporate Affiliates to which the Service relates, or in the event that we discontinue our business or file a petition or have filed against us a petition in bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.


Affiliates

We may disclose information (including personal information) about you to our Corporate Affiliates. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, "Corporate Affiliate" means any person or entity which directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Hydropost, whether by ownership or otherwise. Any information relating to you that we provide to our Corporate Affiliates will be treated by those Corporate Affiliates in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Continued use of the app, direct engagement with us, or following the posting of changes to this Privacy Policy that do not significantly affect the use or disclosure of your personal information will mean that you accept those changes.

If You are a parent or guardian and You are aware that Your child has provided Us with Personal Data, please contact Us.
