2. Information We Collect
a. Information You Provide
- Account & Profile Information: When you create an account or update your profile, we collect details such as your name, email address, phone number, and other contact information.

Wootzapp automatically collects certain information to help us provide and improve our Services:
- Usage & Diagnostic Data: This includes device type, operating system, browser type, IP address, and log data (such as crash reports and error logs).

- Single Sign-On (SSO): If you log in via third-party providers (e.g., Google or Facebook), we collect the information provided (such as your name and email) for authentication and account setup.
c. Crash and Error Reporting
We use crash reporting services to automatically collect diagnostic information (e.g., stack traces, device details, timestamps) when errors or crashes occur. This helps us rapidly fix issues and improve the overall stability of our Services.

We and our partners use cookies and similar tracking technologies to remember your preferences, authenticate you, and gather usage statistics. You can manage these settings via your browser, though disabling some cookies may limit certain functionalities.

Wootzapp is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). If we discover that personal data from a child under 13 has been inadvertently collected, we will delete it promptly. Our Services are not directed at, nor should they be used by, anyone under 13.

4. How We Share Your Information
We share your information only under specific circumstances and with appropriate safeguards:
a. With Third-Party Service Providers
We share data with trusted third-party providers (such as cloud services, analytics, payment processors, and crash reporting tools) who process data on our behalf under strict contractual terms.
b. With Third-Party Partners (for AI & Data Solutions)
With your explicit consent, we may share your data—often in an aggregated or de-identified form—with partner companies in the AI and data analytics space. Such transfers may involve compensation and will be conducted in compliance with applicable data protection laws. Once your data is shared, it is subject to the partner's own privacy policies.
c. Legal and Regulatory Disclosures
We may disclose your personal data if required to do so:
- By Law: In response to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal processes.
- For Safety & Fraud Prevention: To protect against fraud, theft, or other illegal activities, and to comply with requests from local law enforcement.
- Business Transfers: In connection with mergers, acquisitions, or asset sales, provided the recipient agrees to uphold the commitments set out in this Policy.

Your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own (including the United States). We ensure such transfers use legally recognized safeguards, such as:
- Adequacy Decisions
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)
- International Data Privacy Frameworks
Your consent to this Policy covers these cross-border transfers necessary for data sharing, compensation, and business operations.

- Correction: Request updates to incorrect or incomplete data.
- Deletion: Request deletion of your data (note: data already shared with third parties may not be retroactively deleted).

To exercise these rights, please adjust your settings in the Services or contact us at webmaster@wootzapp.com. We may require additional verification before processing your request.

- Regular Audits: We conduct routine security audits and vulnerability assessments.
- Anonymization: When possible, we de-identify or aggregate data before sharing.
