Privacy
This Privacy Policy explains how WithYou Network Services Inc. (“WithYou,” “we,” “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our Services.
Account Information. You register an email when you create a WithYou account. These are used to provide our Services to you and other WithYou users. You may optionally add other information to your account, such as a profile name and profile picture. This information is end-to-end encrypted. You may use a subset of WithYou features anonymously, without signing in.
Messages. WithYou queues end-to-end encrypted messages on its servers for delivery to devices that are temporarily offline (e.g. a phone whose battery has died). Additional technical information is stored on our servers, including randomly generated authentication tokens, keys, push tokens, and other material that is necessary to establish calls and transmit messages. WithYou limits this additional technical information to the minimum required to operate the Services.
Contacts. WithYou connects people by direct invitation only. WithYou does not display which of your contacts are also using the platform.
Managing your information. You can manage your personal information in WithYou’s application Settings. For example, you can update your profile information.
