We use data and content that you make available to us to provide the Services to you and to comply with our legal obligations. We also use data to audit, detect security incidents, protect against fraud or illegal activity, identify and repair errors, and conduct research and development for the improvement of our Services so that we can provide all of our users with a better experience. Our legal basis for this type of data processing is that we have a legitimate interest in running our business and providing our Services to our users. However, the legal basis for our processing of data may also be where we have your consent (for example, where consent is required to send certain marketing communications) or where the processing is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations(for example, where we receive requests from regulatory authorities). When we use your data for product research activities, these may include surveys, interviews, and other types of feedback sessions. When you participate in these research activities, the information you provide will be used to test, improve, and develop our products. We will record the video, audio and text transcriptions of this feedback together with any additional contact information you provide and will retain this data for two years. Please contact us at privacy@kinnu.xyz to: (1) Request more information about the research activities you have volunteered for. (2) Opt out of being contacted for research activities.

  • business partners, suppliers, and subcontractors – for the performance of any contract we enter into with them

  • prospective buyers – if a third party acquires us or our assets, your Personal Data may be part of the transferred company or assets.
  • academic institutions – if we partner on product research activities
