Thank you for choosing to be part of our community at Yama Sciences Inc. ("company", "we", "us", or "our"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about our policy, or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us at operations@yamasciences.com.
When you visit our websites yamasciences.com and insights.yamasciences.com and use our services, you trust us with your personal information. We take your privacy very seriously. In this notice we seek to explain in the clearest way possible what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it.
This privacy policy applies to all information collected through our websites and any related services, sales, marketing, or events (collectively, the "Sites"). Please read it carefully as it will help you make informed decisions about sharing your personal information with us.
Personal information you disclose to us. We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide when registering on or using our Sites. This may include:
All personal information you provide must be true, complete, and accurate. You must notify us of any changes.
Information automatically collected. When you visit, use, or navigate our Sites we automatically collect certain technical information — such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, and information about how and when you use our Sites. This data is primarily needed to maintain security, operation, and for internal analytics.
We use personal information collected via our Sites for a variety of business purposes, including:
We only share and disclose your information in the following situations:
Our Sites allow you to register and log in using third-party social media accounts (such as Google). Where you do this, we will receive certain profile information from your social media provider — typically your name, email address, and profile picture. We use this information only as described in this policy. We are not responsible for how your social media provider uses your information; we recommend reviewing their privacy policy.
Our servers are located in the United States. If you access our Sites from outside the US, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the US. For residents of the European Economic Area, we take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with applicable data protection law.
Our Sites may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the safety or privacy practices of those third parties. Any data you share with them is governed by their own policies, not ours.
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your information, we will delete or anonymise it.
We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information. However, no internet transmission is 100% secure. You should only access our services within a secure environment.
We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under 18, please contact us at operations@yamasciences.com.
In some regions (such as the European Economic Area), you have rights to access, rectify, erase, or port your personal information, and to restrict or object to its processing. To exercise these rights, use the contact details at the end of this policy.
You may review or change your account information, or terminate your account, by contacting us at any time. Upon a request to terminate, we will deactivate or delete your account from our active databases.
We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (web beacons, pixel tags) to enhance and customise your experience. You may configure your browser to remove or reject cookies, though this may affect some functionality of the Sites.
California residents may request information about personal data disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes once per year, free of charge. To make such a request, contact us using the details below. California residents under 18 with a registered account may request removal of publicly posted content by contacting us at operations@yamasciences.com.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy frequently.
