A Legal Disclaimer
This privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") applies to all visitors and users of the whatsgpt.biz hosted services and websites (collectively, the "Website" or "Websites"). WhatsGPT Business (hereinafter referred to as "WhatsGPT") is a product of UVX Technologies FZE (hereinafter referred to as "UVX" "we," "us," or "our"). Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By accessing or using any part of the Websites, you acknowledge you have been informed of and consent to our practices with regard to your personal information and data.
1. Data Protection
Oversight of Data Security is handled by UVX's respective Data Protection Officers. Should you wish to make modifications, deletions, or additions to any personal data you believe to be captured by UVX, or if you have any general security concerns, please contact us at privacy@uvx.ai.
2. What Information WhatsGPT Collects and Why
Information from Website Visitors Like most website operators, UVX collects basic non-personally-identifying information from Website visitors of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. We collect this information to better understand how visitors use the Website, to improve our Websites and experience for visitors, and to monitor the security of the Websites. From time to time, UVX may publicly release non-personally-identifying information collected from Website visitors in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of the Website. UVX also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses from visitors. UVX does not use such information to identify or track individual visitors, however. We collect this information to understand how visitors use the Websites, to improve performance and content, and to monitor the security of the Websites. UVX may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to our Websites. For instance, UVX may reveal how many downloads a particular version got using aggregated statistics that contain anonymous user information only. Personally-Identifying Information Users of the Websites may choose to interact with UVX in ways that provide us with their personally-identifying information. In some instances, a User ID is generated for form and url tracking, page views, page pings and usage counts in order to ascertain product performance and development. The amount and type of information that UVX gathers depends on the nature of your interaction with us, as well as the amount of information you choose to share. For example, we ask visitors who use our live-chat widget to provide full name and email address. We will also collect the information you provide with us in connection with creating an account on the Website. If you report a security vulnerability to UVX and request public acknowledgement, then we may publicly disclose the personal information you provided to us in connection with the report, including your name to fulfill your request for acknowledgement. In each case, UVX collects such personally-identifiable information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the user’s interaction with or request of UVX. We will not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described in this Privacy Policy. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent you from engaging in certain Website-related activities or being able to access and use certain features and services. For details about what information is collected and with whom it is shared, please refer to tracking technologies.
3. Information WhatsGPT Does Not Collect
WhatsGPT does not intentionally collect sensitive personal information, such as social security numbers, genetic data, health information, or religious information.

If you store any sensitive personal information on WhatsGPT servers, you are consenting to our storage of that information on our servers, which are located in the United States.

If you are below the minimum age for providing consent for data collection in your country, you may not use WhatsGPT.

5. How WhatsGPT Uses and Protects Personally-Identifying Information
Sharing Your Information WhatsGPT only discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to those of its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on WhatsGPT's behalf or to provide services available on the Website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Please note, email and IP addresses of users of a WhatsGPT deployment may be shared with the respective users of that deployment. WhatsGPT will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations, as described above, WhatsGPT discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when WhatsGPT believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of WhatsGPT, third parties, or the public at large.

If you have concerns over the use of your logo, please email privacy@uvx.ai.
6. WhatsGPT Communications with You
If you are a registered user of the Websites and have supplied your email address, WhatsGPT may occasionally send you an email to tell you about security, system information, new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with WhatsGPT and our products. We primarily use our blog to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. There's an unsubscribe link located at the bottom of each of the marketing emails we send you so you can stop receiving such emails at any time. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish your request in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. We will not publish your personally-identifiable information in connection with your request.
7. Cookies, Tracking Technologies and Do Not Track
Cookies A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor's computer, and that the visitor's browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. WhatsGPT uses cookies to identify and track visitors, their usage of the Websites, and their Website access preferences. WhatsGPT visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers may set their browsers to refuse cookies before using the Websites. Disabling browser cookies may cause certain features of WhatsGPT's websites to not function properly. Certain pages on the Website may set other third-party cookies. For example, we may embed content, such as videos, from another site that sets a cookie. These sites set their own cookies and we do not have access or control over these cookies. The use of cookies by third parties is not covered by our Privacy Policy. Tracking Technologies We may use third-party tracking services, but we don’t use these services to track you individually or collect your personally identifiable-information. We may use these services to collect information about how the Website performs and how users navigate through and use the Website so we can monitor and improve our content and Website performance. Third-party tracking services gather certain simple, non-personally identifying information over time, such as your IP address, browser type, internet service provider, referring and exit pages, timestamp, and similar data about your use of the Website. We do not link this information to any of your personal information such as your user name. Do Not Track "Do Not Track" is a privacy preference you can set in your browser if you do not want online services to collect and share certain kinds of information about your online activity from third-party tracking services. WhatsGPT does not track your online browsing activity on other online services over time and we do not permit third-party services to track your activity on our site beyond our basic tracking, which you may opt out of. Because we do not share this kind of data with third-party services or permit this kind of third-party data collection for any of our users, and we do not track our users on third-party websites ourselves, we do not need to respond differently to an individual browser's Do Not Track setting.
