  • We insist upon the highest standards for securing Customer Data and maintaining customer information privacy.

Information We Collect

  • We have already specified (under points 4 and 5 of the ToS) the kind of Customer Data (PII and otherwise) that we require, collect, access, and store during the period of account creation and thereafter during your usage of the Xeno Services. Both You and your End-Users (through you) have the right, at any time, to choose not to provide us with any of this information and to ask us to delete the same, if required.

Information Storage and Security

  • All the information that we collect from You during your usage of Xeno is stored on third-party servers, located in the United States of America. We access the information on the cloud. Our third-party service provider uses globally accepted standards for ensuring and maintaining the protection, security, confidentiality, and privacy of all data on its servers.
  • We work hard to protect You from unauthorized access or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of any Customer Data we hold. Pursuant to the same, we have implemented globally accepted standards and procedures to maintain ongoing data protection and privacy by ensuring the following:
  • The encryption of all data (both Customer Data and Xeno Content) using secure server software, which is among the best software available today for secure transactions.
  • The pseudonymization of all data collected by us, by ensuring that all PII is kept/stored separately from all the remaining information, to ensure that the remaining data cannot be attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person, unless actively merged or joined with the PII;
  • The constant review of our information collection, storage and processing practices, including this ToS, PP, and the physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems;
  • The constant upgradation and/or alteration of our policies as may be necessary to ensure the ongoing confidentiality, protection, privacy, security, and accessibility of all data and systems;
  • Limiting the disclosure of PII to Our employees, independent contractors including vendors, affiliates, consultants, business associates, service providers and distributors of Our services, only on a “need-to-know” basis, and only if the disclosure will enable that person/entity to provide Us with business, professional, or technical support or fulfill Your request and requirements under the services.

Information We Share

  • In addition to any third-party service providers who, subject to your prior consent, we may share some or all parts of the Customer Data with (as is captured under point 6 of the ToS), we may disclose any information provided by You on the Platform as may be deemed to be necessary or appropriate: (a) under applicable law, including laws outside Your country of residence; (b) to comply with legal process; (c) to respond to requests from public and government authorities including public and government authorities outside Your country of residence; (d) to enforce Our Terms of Use; or (e) to allow Us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that We may sustain.
