Yidian Hengtong may retain information related to you that we collect from our business partners to provide services, conduct internal analysis, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and execute contracts (such as settlements). We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary, and the retention period for personal information collected about you under this privacy policy does not exceed 2 years. The criteria for determining the retention period include: (i) the duration for which personal information needs to be retained to provide services and operate the business; (ii) the type of personal information collected; and (iii) whether we are subject to legal, contractual, or other similar obligations to retain data (for example: mandatory data retention laws, government requirements to retain data related to investigations, or data that must be retained for litigation or disputes).
9. Protection of Minors
The Yidian Hengtong service primarily targets adults and we do not actively or deliberately collect information about minors, nor do we create user profiles or personalized recommendations for them. In the scenarios where we disclose personal information collection, we distinguish specific information subjects through device information, not by age. In scenarios where our partners transmit and share data with us, we explicitly require our partners to formulate specific minor information protection policies according to the actual situation of their own products and services, and adopt stricter data desensitization and encryption technologies to protect minors.
If the end user is a minor under the applicable laws, please make sure to read the privacy policy of the developer's application or the advertiser's application that has integrated Yidian Hengtong products and services or cooperates with Yidian Hengtong for advertising, together with the parents or other guardians, carefully before using the application, and use the application or provide personal information only after obtaining the consent of the guardian.
We protect minors' personal information in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations applicable, and will only collect, use, store, share, transfer, or publicly disclose minors' personal information when permitted by law, with the explicit consent of parents or other guardians, or when necessary to protect minors. If we find that we have collected minors' personal information without prior verifiable parental consent, we will take measures to delete the information as soon as possible.
If you are a parent or other guardian of a minor and have questions about the personal information of the minor you are supervising, please contact us through the contact information provided in this privacy policy.
If you are a user in the United States, we guarantee compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). If our business partners (e.g., application developers) target users under the age of 13, they must make the relevant COPPA settings on the Yidian Hengtong platform when using Yidian Hengtong services, so that Yidian Hengtong can ensure that the processing of persistent identifiers collected from users of these applications complies with COPPA regulations, including not using them for targeted advertising or for tracking users for that purpose. In addition, we will not deliberately collect other personal information (such as accurate location information) from applications that we know are targeted at children under the age of 13.
If parents or guardians find that their children have provided their personal information to us without consent, parents or guardians should contact us promptly. We will take reasonable measures to ensure that this information is deleted from our records.
10. Marketing Promotion
If you are our business partner, we may periodically send you information about our products, services, and content that may interest you via email. If applicable laws require us to obtain your consent before sending you marketing information, we will only send you such information after receiving your consent.
If you do not wish to receive such marketing information, you can unsubscribe at any time by following the instructions provided in the marketing emails or by sending an email to yidianhengtong@126.com requesting to stop receiving such information.
