Oysbee Privacy Policy

The Oysbee Privacy Policy describes the privacy practices of Oysbee’s apps and websites. Your relationship is with Oysbee Inc. and the laws of Republic of Korea apply.

Please note that in order to use our apps and websites, you authorise Oysbee to transfer your personal information across national borders and to other countries where Oysbee and its partners operate, including Republic of Korea.

We will share personal information with companies, organisations or individuals outside of Oysbee if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, as well as to protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Oysbee, our users, or the public as required or permitted by law.

Such companies include providers of customer support services, payment processing services, fraud monitoring and prevention, email, social media, and other marketing platforms and service providers, and hosting services.

Other Information Sharing

Oysbee may also share your personal information:

1. When you agree to the sharing;
2. When we are required to provide information in response to a subpoena, court order, or other applicable law or legal process;
3. When we have a good faith belief that the disclosure is necessary to prevent or respond to fraud, defend our apps or websites against attacks, or protect the property and safety of Oysbee, our customers and users, or the public;
4. If we merge with or are acquired by another company, sell an Oysbee website, app, or business unit, or if all or a substantial portion of our assets are acquired by another company, your information will likely be disclosed to our advisers and any prospective purchaser's advisers and will be one of the assets that is transferred to the new owner.

Is my personal information displayed anywhere on Oysbee’s websites or applications?

There are several places within Oysbee’s websites and apps that allow you to post comments, upload pictures, or submit content for others to see. Sometimes you can limit who can see what you share, but there are some places where what you share can be seen by the general public or other users of the app or website. Please be careful when you share your personal information. Do not share anything you wouldn’t want publicly known unless you are sure you are posting it within an app or website that allows you to control who sees what you post. Please note that when you post messages on certain user forums on our websites and app, your email address or name and/or profile photo may be included and displayed with your message.
To remove content you have shared on our websites and apps, please use the same app or website feature you used to share the content. If another user invites you to participate in shared viewing, editing, or commenting of content, you may be able to delete your contributions, but usually the user who invited you has full control. If you have questions or concerns about this, please contact us.

Is my personal information secure?

We understand that the security of your personal information is important. We provide reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security controls to protect your personal information. However, despite our efforts, no security controls are 100% effective and Oysbee cannot ensure or warrant the security of your personal information.

Where does Oysbee store my personal information?

Your personal information and files are stored on Oysbee’s servers and the servers of companies we hire to provide services to us.

Does Oysbee transfer my personal information across national borders?

We may transfer your personal information across national borders to other countries in compliance with applicable laws. Your relationship is with Oysbee. Oysbee will transfer your personal information to some organisations which are located outside Republic of Korea, Asia, the European Economic Area (EEA) and the United Kingdom and/or Switzerland, namely the US and India and other locations where we Oysbee may have operations in the future.

What rights do I have in respect of my personal information and how can I exercise these rights?

Under the law of some countries, you may have the right to ask us for a copy of your personal information; to correct, delete or restrict (stop any active) processing of your personal information; and to obtain the personal information you provide to us for a contract or with your consent in a structured, machine readable format, and to ask us to share (port) this information to another controller.
In addition, you can object to the processing of your personal information in some circumstances (in particular, where we don’t have to process the information to meet a contractual or other legal requirement, or where we are using the information for direct marketing).
These rights may be limited, for example, if fulfilling your request would reveal personal information about another person, or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to keep or have compelling legitimate interests in keeping (such as fraud prevention purposes).
To exercise any of these rights (including deactivating your Oysbee ID account), you can get in touch with us – or our data protection officer – using the details set out below. Additionally, many of our websites and apps allow you to edit your personal information by accessing the “my account”, "my profile," or a similar feature of the app or website you are using. Likewise, you can delete files or photos you have stored in our websites and apps by logging in and using the deletion functions that are available.
If you have unresolved concerns, you have the right to report them to a Korea or EU or other data protection authority where you live, work or where you believe a potential violation may have occurred.
To register with Oysbee, to create an Oysbee ID, and to use some Oysbee websites, apps, products or services, the provision of some information is mandatory: if relevant information is not provided, then we will not be able to administer an Oysbee account to you, or provide you with the websites, apps, products or services requested. All other provision of your information is optional. Providing optional information will help us offer you a better experience, such as more personalised or tailored content or offerings.

Withdrawing consent or otherwise objecting to direct marketing

Oysbee and companies we hire to help us market our websites and apps on our behalf may use your information to provide you with information and offers related to Oysbee.
Wherever we rely on your consent, you will always be able to withdraw that consent, although we may have other legal grounds for processing your information for other purposes, such as those set out above. In some cases, we are able to send you direct marketing without your consent, where we rely on our legitimate interests. You have an absolute right to opt-out of direct marketing, or profiling we carry out for direct marketing, at any time by:

1. updating your preferences in your Oysbee ID profile;
2. updating your preferences in your specific website or app accounts;
3. clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of our marketing emails; or
4. contacting us using the details provided at the end of this privacy policy.

How long does Oysbee retain my information?

When you register for an Oysbee ID account, we process and keep most personal information we have about you for as long as you are an active user of our products, services or apps. When you close your account, we begin deleting certain personal information that we no longer have a business reason to retain, such as your hashed password and your payment account data. However, we typically retain personal information related to our contract and business transactions with you for seven years afer your last interaction with us.
Where we process personal information for marketing purposes or with your consent, we process the information until you ask us to stop and for a short period afer this (to allow us to implement your requests). We also keep a permanent record of the fact that you have asked us not to send you direct marketing or to process your information so that we can respect your request in future.

Will this privacy policy change?

Occasionally, we may change this privacy policy (or other documents in the Oysbee Help Centre) to allow Oysbee to use or share your personal information in a different way. If we do, the links to the policy on our websites (which are generally found in the footer of the website) will indicate that the policy has been changed. For new users, the change will become effective upon posting. For existing users, if the change is significant, it will become effective 30 days afer posting. We encourage you to periodically review the Oysbee Privacy Policy for the latest information on our privacy practices.

Who can I contact with questions or concerns?

If you have a privacy question, concern, or request, please fill out a privacy inquiry form. You can also get in touch with Oysbee's data protection officer at help@oysbee.com
