• To tailor the content and information that we may send or display to you, to offer location customization, and personalized help and instructions, and to otherwise personalize your experiences while using the Service;

Who do we disclose your personal data to?

We may share your personal data with:

• Affiliates. We may disclose the information we collect to our affiliates or subsidiaries; however, if we do so, their use and disclosure of your personally identifiable information will be subject to this Policy.
• Business Users. We may provide your information to business users of our products (e.g., user support centers) so that they can improve their calling operations and marketing practices. For example: We may share your anonymized complaint data with Business Users such as call originators so that they become aware of the nuisance they are causing.
• User of the Service and Our Other Products. Because your information may be used for validation of information in our database, we may disclose your information to users of the Service and of other products and services that rely on our database of information. For example: If you provide us with your name and you call another of our users, then we may show your name to the other user to know who is calling.
• Service Providers. We may disclose the information we collect from you to third party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents who perform functions on our behalf. For example if a unknown number has called you and we don't have sufficient information about the number then we may ask a third party data vendor for help.
• Business Transfers. If we are acquired by or merged with another company, if substantially all of our assets are transferred to another company, or as part of a bankruptcy proceeding, we may transfer the information we have collected from you to the other company.
• In Response to Legal Process. We may disclose your information to comply with the law, a judicial proceeding, court order, or other legal process, such as in response to a court order or a subpoena.
• To Protect Us and Others. We may disclose your information where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use or this Policy, or as evidence in litigation in which we are involved. We may, on a strictly confidential basis, also disclose your information to our legal and professional advisers, where we believe it is necessary for the compliance with laws and the protection of our legal interests.
• Aggregate and De-Identified Information. We may share aggregated and de-identified information information about users with third parties for marketing, advertising, research, or similar purposes.

What are the legal grounds for our processing of your personal data?

The legal bases on which we process your personal data is described below:

• We process data as necessary to perform our contracts with you, or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into such a contract;
• In cases where this is necessary and you give us your consent to the processing of your personal data, we also rely on consent in relation to the processing concerned (see below for how to withdraw your consent at any time).
• Otherwise, we will process your personal data where the processing is necessary:

• for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or another person, provided that this will only be in circumstances in which those legitimate interests are not overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms which require protection of personal data. In order for us to be able to provide the Services to our users, we may have to rely on information about you that we have obtained from persons other than you, such as our users or third parties. The legitimate interests we rely on for this processing include the interest of ours and most of all our users' of protecting them from unwanted disturbances, such as phone calls and text messages from businesses or individuals with whom they do not, and most likely do not want to, make contact. We only process personal data on the basis of this legitimate interest where the processing of that data is absolutely necessary in order to enable us to provide the services to our users;
• for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are a subject;
• for the protection of your vital interests or those of another person;
• for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest, insofar as the processing has a legal basis.

Where do we process personal data?

The data that we process in relation to you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination in another country. Hiya's data centers are located outside the European Economic Area ("EEA") that may not be subject to equivalent data protection law. It may also be processed by staff situated outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our partners. Your information for example could be transferred to the USA, Brazil, Singapore and Australia.

Where personal data is transferred in relation to providing the Service we will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that it is subject to appropriate safeguards and that it is treated securely and in accordance with this Policy, such as relying on a recognized legal adequacy mechanism which may include entering into EC approved standard contractual clauses relevant to transfers of personal information.

How long do we process personal data for?

We process personal data only for so long as is necessary for the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected, after which it will be deleted or archived except to the extent that it is necessary for us to continue to process it for the purpose of compliance with legal obligations to which we are subject or for another legitimate and lawful purpose.

We may retain some of your information even after you disable or stop using the Service, except if you instructed us otherwise, or if you agreed to share your name and phone number with the Service, it will be removed when you disable the Service, unless this information was already available to Hiya before you started using the Service.

In particular, we may for an indefinite period process your call logs and spam reports which you granted us access to before disabling or stop using the Service. We do this strictly for statistical purposes, in order to enable us improving our algorithms and the Service. We will not use these data for any other purposes, and the processing will have no effect on you or any other natural person. The data will not be shared with any third parties either, and we take appropriate measures to ensure that your data is safe with us.

The Service is not designed for children under 16 and Hiya does not make its' services available to Children under 16.
