GATHERING, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF NON-PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION
Users of the Website Generally
At Akma Services Inc, we collect both “Non-Personally-Identifying Information” and “Personally-Identifying Information” from users of our website. Non-Personally-Identifying Information cannot, by itself, be directly associated with a specific individual and includes data like IP address, operating system, browser type, and the websites visited before and after our own. While this data is not personally identifying, it may allow us to determine your internet service provider, general location, and other usage statistics. We analyze Non-Personally-Identifying Information to help us understand how our Website is used and to enhance its design and user experience. Occasionally, we may release aggregated reports based on this information to illustrate usage trends.
Web Cookies
A “Web Cookie” is a small file that assigns a unique identifier to your browser and is stored on your computer. Akma Services Inc uses cookies to keep track of your services, login details, and preferences, to keep you logged in, and to facilitate purchasing processes. Cookies also help us understand user interactions with our Website and enable us to improve user experience. Aggregated data from cookies may also be shared with our partners for analytical purposes. If you prefer not to accept cookies, you can adjust your browser settings to refuse them, though this may limit certain functionalities on our Website. Users who refuse cookies do so with the understanding that they may lose certain Website features.
Web Beacons
A “Web Beacon” is an embedded object within web pages or emails that allows us to see if specific pages or emails have been viewed. Akma Services Inc may use Web Beacons to monitor traffic on certain pages, track email engagement, and deliver co-branded services. These beacons do not collect Personally-Identifying Information but instead help us gather aggregated usage statistics. To block Web Beacons, you can disable cookies or set your browser to alert you before accepting cookies, allowing you to choose on an individual basis.
Analytics
We may work with third-party vendors, like Google, which use first-party cookies (e.g., Google Analytics) and third-party cookies (e.g., DoubleClick) to understand how users interact with our Website. This helps us optimize content and ads based on previous Website activities. To prevent Google Analytics from collecting data, you can install the opt-out tool on your browser (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/) or adjust your Google Ads Settings at www.google.com/settings/ads.
Aggregated and Non-Personally-Identifying Information
Akma Services Inc may share aggregated and Non-Personally Identifying Information collected through the Website in various ways, as described above. This information may also be shared with third parties and our affiliate companies to help develop and deliver targeted advertising on our Website and across third-party sites. We may combine Non-Personally Identifying Information collected on the Website with additional Non-Personally Identifying Information gathered from other sources.
Additionally, we may share aggregated data with third parties, including advisors, advertisers, and investors, for general business analysis purposes. For instance, we may inform our advertisers about the number of visitors to the Website or highlight popular features and services accessed. This data does not include any Personally-Identifying Information and is used solely to enhance Website content and services, tailoring them to our users’ interests and optimizing targeted content and advertising.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Akma Services Inc may offer you the option to connect your account on our Website with your accounts on certain social networking sites for purposes such as logging in, uploading information, or enabling specific features. When you log in using your social network credentials, we may collect certain Personally-Identifying Information you have made publicly available on that social network, including your name, profile picture, cover photo, username, gender, friend network, age range, locale, friend list, and any other information set to “public.” Once connected, other users may also see certain information about your social network, such as the size of your network and your mutual connections. By linking your account on our Website with your social network account, you consent to the continuous sharing of information with us. We will not share any of your account information with the connected social network without your prior knowledge. Each social network allows you to set privacy controls around your information, and our data collection will always comply with those permissions.
Our Website may also include hyperlinks that redirect you to social networks when clicked. If you click on a social plug-in, such as Facebook’s “Like” button, Twitter’s “Tweet” button, or Google’s “+1” button, that social network’s plugin will be activated, and your browser will connect directly to that provider’s servers. Without engaging with these buttons, no data will be shared with the social network. For instance, if you click the Facebook “Like” button, Facebook will receive information such as your IP address, browser version, screen resolution, and the operating system of the device used to access the Website. Privacy settings for these social networks can be adjusted directly on their respective sites, as these controls are beyond our management.
COLLECTION, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION
As defined above, Personally-Identifying Information refers to information that can be directly associated with a specific individual. Akma Services Inc may collect a range of Personally-Identifying Information from and about users of our Website. Much of the Personally-Identifying Information collected by Akma Services Inc is provided directly by users themselves when they (1) register for our services, (2) log in with social network credentials, (3) participate in polls, contests, surveys, or other features, or respond to offers or advertisements, (4) communicate with us, (5) create a public profile, or (6) sign up to receive newsletters. This information may include each user’s name, address, email address, and phone number, and, if you conduct transactions with us, financial information such as your payment method (e.g., valid credit card number, type, expiration date, or other financial details). We may also request additional information about your interests, activities, gender, age, date of birth, username, hometown, and other demographic or relevant details as determined by Akma Services Inc.
Users are not obligated to provide Personally-Identifying Information; however, refusal to do so may prevent access to certain features of the Website.
BY REGISTERING WITH OR USING THE WEBSITE, YOU CONSENT TO THE USE AND DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION AS DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION.
Company Communications
At Akma Services Inc, we may occasionally use your name and email address to inform you about new services we believe may be valuable to you. Additionally, we may send you service-related announcements as part of our regular operations. You can generally opt out of these emails during registration or in your account settings; however, we reserve the right to send necessary notices regarding your account, such as administrative messages and service announcements, even if you opt out of other email notifications.
Company Disclosures
Akma Services Inc may disclose Personally-Identifying Information under the following circumstances:
By Law or to Protect Rights. When we believe it is necessary, we may disclose Personally-Identifying Information as part of efforts to investigate or prevent illegal activity, suspected fraud, or other misconduct. This includes actions to protect the rights, property, or safety of Akma Services Inc, our users, our employees, or others; to comply with legal requirements; to cooperate with law enforcement; to enforce our Terms of Use and policies; to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or government requests; to establish or defend against legal claims, or as required by law. We may raise or waive any legal objections or rights available to us.
Marketing Communications. Unless you choose to opt out during registration, Akma Services Inc may send emails about products and services we think may interest you. To opt out of receiving marketing communications, you can follow the unsubscribe link in any email, update your account settings (if applicable), or contact us using the information below.
Third-Party Service Providers. We may share your Personally-Identifying Information, including your name and contact information, with authorized service providers who assist us in delivering our services. These providers may help fulfill orders, provide customer service, offer marketing assistance, perform business analysis, support Website functions, or facilitate contests, surveys, and other features. Additionally, authorized service providers processing payments may have access to your credit card information. These providers may access your personal information solely to perform their functions and are not permitted to use or share it for other purposes.
Business Transfers; Bankruptcy. Akma Services Inc reserves the right to transfer Personally-Identifying Information to a successor organization in the event of a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or sale of assets. In the case of a business transfer, the use and disclosure of all transferred Personally-Identifying Information will remain subject to this Privacy Policy, unless a new privacy policy is implemented, in which case you will be notified and given an opportunity to opt out. Personally-Identifying Information collected after a business transfer may be subject to a new privacy policy adopted by the successor organization.
Changing Personally-Identifying Information; Account Termination
You may review or change your Personally-Identifying Information at any time by accessing your account settings (if applicable) or contacting us. Upon request, we will deactivate or delete your account and contact information from our active databases as soon as practicable, based on your account activity and in accordance with our deactivation policy and applicable law. To make this request, go to your account settings (if applicable) or reach out to us as indicated below. While we will deactivate or delete your information from active databases, we may retain certain Personally-Identifying Information to prevent fraud, troubleshoot issues, support investigations, enforce our Terms of Use, and comply with legal requirements as allowed by law. Additionally, we maintain a record of changed information to help investigate potential fraud associated with your account.
General Use
Akma Services Inc uses the Personally-Identifying Information collected from your account activity on our Website to: (1) deliver requested products and services; (2) manage your account and provide customer support; (3) communicate with you via email, postal mail, phone, and/or mobile devices about products or services that may interest you, either from us, our affiliates, or third parties; (4) display content and advertising tailored to your interests on our Website and other sites; (5) resolve disputes and troubleshoot issues; (6) gauge consumer interest in our services; (7) notify you of updates; (8) personalize your experience; (9) detect and protect against errors, fraud, and other criminal activity; (10) enforce our Terms of Use; and (11) any other purposes described to you at the time of collection. We may analyze data across multiple users to identify potential issues, including reviewing Personally-Identifying Information to identify users with multiple accounts. Additionally, we may verify your information for accuracy and to detect errors. Financial information or payment methods may be used to process transactions, enroll you in discounts or rebates, and to identify potential fraudulent transactions.
Collection and Use of Information by Third Parties Generally
Akma Services Inc contractually requires our contractors, affiliates, vendors, and suppliers to handle Personally-Identifying Information in line with this Privacy Policy. However, third parties that users interact with directly on the Website, including advertisers, game providers, utilities, widgets, and other applications, may have their own policies regarding Personally-Identifying Information. Akma Services Inc does not own or control these third-party websites or applications, so this Privacy Policy does not cover information they collect or receive directly from users. Before visiting or using third-party sites or applications, whether through links on our Website or directly, users should review the privacy policies of those third parties and take any necessary steps to protect their privacy.
Security
Akma Services Inc is committed to protecting your Personally-Identifying Information using reasonable electronic, personnel, and physical safeguards against loss, theft, alteration, or misuse. However, please be aware that no security measures are completely foolproof. We cannot guarantee that only authorized persons will access your information, and we are not responsible for third-party circumvention of any security settings or measures.
We take appropriate steps to protect all Website information. However, users are also responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their Personally-Identifying Information by keeping passwords secure. If you believe someone has gained unauthorized access to your password or account, change your password immediately and contact us to notify of any potential breach.
Privacy Policy Changes
Akma Services Inc may update this Privacy Policy at its discretion. All changes to our Privacy Policy will be posted on this page, with the date of the latest revision indicated at the top. Unless otherwise stated, our current Privacy Policy applies to all information we hold about you and your account. We encourage users to check this page regularly for any updates. Although we may notify users of significant changes via email or other communication channels, we recommend keeping your contact information current to receive any notifications.
Children’s Privacy
The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) safeguards the online privacy of children under 13. Akma Services Inc does not knowingly collect or maintain Personally-Identifying Information from anyone under 13, except as permitted by law. Any individual providing Personally-Identifying Information through the Website confirms they are at least 13 years old. If we discover that information has been collected from a user under 13, we will take appropriate steps to delete it. Parents or guardians of children under 13 who may have inadvertently provided information to our Website can contact us to have their child’s account terminated and information deleted.
California Privacy Rights
Under California’s “Shine The Light” law (California Civil Code Section 1798.83), California residents may request once a year, free of charge, details regarding the Personally-Identifying Information (if any) we have disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes in the previous calendar year. If applicable, this information will include categories of Personally-Identifying Information shared and the names and addresses of the third parties with whom we shared the information. If you are a California resident and wish to make such a request, please contact our privacy officer using the information below.
Do-Not-Track Policy
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) setting you can activate to signal your privacy preferences regarding tracking of online browsing activities. However, as there is currently no standardized approach for responding to DNT signals, Akma Services Inc does not respond to DNT browser signals or similar mechanisms at this time.
