Commitment to Your Privacy
In today's digital age, your privacy matters more than ever. At WHATHEBYTE, we are deeply committed to protecting your personal data and ensuring you have control over how it is used. Our Privacy Policy outlines our practices and the choices you have concerning your information.

We will review, update, and amend these policies from time to time, consistent with our business needs and technology. We encourage you to check back periodically for new updates or changes. Your continued use of the service makes up your acceptance of any change to this Privacy Policy. We are the data controller of your information. We handle and process all data on behalf of our customers.

You may likewise decide not to give us “discretionary” Personal Data; however, please remember that without it, we will most likely be unable to provide you with the full scope of our administrations or with the best client experience when utilising our Services.

This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes how WHATHEBYTE will gather, use, and maintain your Personal Information on whathebyte.com. It will also explain your legal rights concerning that information.

The Singapore Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA) establishes a data protection law that comprises various rules governing the collection, use, disclosure, and care of personal data. This Privacy Policy has adopted all the regulations of PDPA.

By using the website and app or services, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and our Terms (referred to herein as the “Agreement”). The Agreement governs the use of whathebyte.com and mobile applications. We will collect, use, and maintain information consistent with the Agreement.

Updates and Amendments
We regularly review and may update our policies to reflect changes in our practices and technology. We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy periodically for any updates. Continued use of our service signifies your acceptance of these changes.

Your Information & How We Use It
Collection: When you visit WHATHEBYTE or use our services, we collect the information you provide directly, such as account data (name, email, etc.) and personal data (gender, date of birth, etc.), along with automatically collected data like your IP address and device information.

Use: We use your information to provide, personalise, and improve our services, communicate with you, conduct analytics, and ensure security.

Sharing: Your information may be shared with third parties for services like analytics, marketing, and data processing, always under strict privacy protections.

Handling of Social Signals
If you choose to register or log in to our website and app using a social media account, we may access certain information about you.

Our sites offer you the ability to register and log in using your third-party social media account details (like your Facebook or Google logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider. The profile information we receive may vary depending on the social media provider concerned, but will often include your name, email address, friends list, profile picture, and other information you choose to make public.

We will use the information we receive only for the purposes described in this privacy policy or that are otherwise made clear to you on the Sites. Please note that we do not control and are not responsible for other uses of your personal information by your third-party social media provider. We recommend that you review their privacy policy to understand how they collect, use, and share your personal information and how you can set your privacy preferences on their sites and apps.

We use the APIs to store and access cookies and other information on your devices. If you are a user currently in the European Union, please look at our [EU User Consent Policy.](https://www.google.com/about/company/user-consent-policy/)

Do Not Track
Currently, various browsers — such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari — offer a “do not track” or “DNT” option that relies on a technology known as a DNT header, which sends a signal to Web sites visited by the user about the user’s browser DNT preference setting. WHATHEBYTE does not currently commit to responding to browsers’ DNT signals concerning the Company’s websites, in part because industry groups have adopted no common industry standard for DNT, technology companies, or regulators, including no consistent standard of interpreting user intent. WHATHEBYTE takes privacy and meaningful choice seriously and will make efforts to continue to monitor developments around DNT browser technology and the implementation of a standard.
