business partners and your data may therefore also be transmitted to other countries or regions. The privacy
protection laws of these countries or regions may be different, and the jurisdiction in which these global
resources or servers are located may or may not protect personal information to the same standards as in your
jurisdiction. However, we will still strive to comply with this Policy to protect your personal information, and
we will follow the legal requirements of the country or region where the personal information is located to
carry out the corresponding cross-border transfer and other processing of personal information.
Where we transfer personal information outside of your jurisdiction, whether it transferred to our affiliates

6. How We Protect Your Information
We will take other necessary measures to protect the security of your personal information and prevent data
from being misused, unauthorized access, and unauthorized modification, disclosure, or destruction, etc.
We implement security safeguards designed to protect your personal information and regularly monitor our
systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks, and we use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards
to protect your personal information. We are constantly working to improve on these safeguards to keep your
personal information secure.
Nevertheless, we need to remind you that no matter how perfect the measures are, there is no absolute guarantee
of avoiding the occurrence of data storage security incidents. If a data breach event occurs, we will report it
to the corresponding regulatory authorities as required by the relevant laws and regulations, and provide the
type of personal information involved in the breach, the number of data subjects, the possible consequences of
the breach, and the remedial measures we intend to take according to the requirements of the regulatory
authorities. We will take the best possible measures to remedy or mitigate the damage and consequences of data
breach. When permitted or required by laws and regulations, we will inform you of the possible consequences or
significant damage to you in a timely manner, so that you can take appropriate measures promptly to protect your
rights as much as possible.
There is no absolutely safe website, Internet transmission, computer system and wireless connections. In
addition to the necessary protective measures we have taken, users must strengthen the awareness of privacy
security risks. For example, when you access third-party websites, links, products or services from the Service,
for the security of any data collected by those websites, links, products or services, please read through the
Terms & Conditions of those third parties carefully. We do not take any legal responsibility for data security
issues caused by such third parties. If you find that certain contents, advertisements or features in our
websites, products or services may be provided by a third party and may possibly endanger your privacy and
security, please contact us promptly, as we will handle it with priority in accordance with laws and
regulations.
7. How Long We Retain Your Information
We keep your personal information only as long as it is necessary to provide you with the service so that we
can fulfill our contractual obligations and exercise our rights in relation to the information involved. Where
we do not need your information in order to provide the service to you, we retain it only for so long as we have
a legitimate business purpose in keeping such data.
When your account is canceled by yourself, we take reasonable efforts to make sure it is no longer viewable on
the Service, and we will delete your personal information from our systems. We will also delete personal
information that relates to the in-app messaging function after you cancelling your user account. Please note
that messages sent to other users of our service are stored on their devices and cannot be deleted by us.
In each case, there are also occasions where we may need to keep your data for longer in accordance with our
legal obligations or where it is necessary for legal claims. Even though our systems are designed to carry out
data deletion processes according to the above guidelines, we cannot promise that all data will be deleted
within a specific timeframe due to technical constraints.
After you have terminated your use of Crush, we store your information in an aggregated and anonymised format.

that you do not submit information to us. If we become aware that a child, minor or anyone under the age of 18
or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction has registered with us and provided us with
personal information, we will take steps to terminate that person’s registration.
