1. User Installation and Service Usage
1.1 User ID
Please note that using Busio does not require account creation or login.
A "User" refers to any individual who registers, logs in, or utilizes the Services. To provide you with the necessary services, when you install the application (or when the application is installed/pre-installed) on your mobile device, Busio will establish an account associated with that device and generate a User ID for you. This is a unique identifier created in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
1.2 Protection of Users' Personal Privacy Information
Users understand and agree that our company has always placed great importance on information security and spared no effort in protecting privacy information. We promise to protect users' privacy information within the scope of compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
Users understand and accept that our company has adopted appropriate technical measures and management methods to protect the security of users' privacy information, and to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, misuse, loss or tampering of such information. However, due to technical limitations and potential malicious means, our company cannot guarantee absolute information security. That is, users' privacy information may still be accessed, disclosed, misused, lost or tampered with due to force majeure or other reasons not attributable to our company.
In this regard, provided that our company has taken necessary measures to prevent the occurrence of the above circumstances, and has taken necessary measures to prevent further expansion after such circumstances occur, our company shall not be liable to users.
The Company will not voluntarily disclose, transfer or provide to third parties any of the following information without your explicit consent, unless such disclosure is necessary for service provision (e.g., specific features may require sharing your location information) or required by applicable laws, regulations or judicial authorities.
Our company may use your personal information to provide you with content of interest, including but not limited to sending you product and service information, or sharing information with "Busio" partners to enable them to send you information about their products and services (the latter requires your prior consent).
You acknowledge and agree that you shall enhance information security awareness, properly safeguard passwords, and immediately contact Busio customer service at kf@metalight.ai upon discovering any leakage to mitigate damages. The Company shall not be held liable for any consequences arising from information disclosure, including but not limited to leakage, unauthorized access, use or transfer of your private information caused by: (i) your own actions (e.g., downloading virus-infected software or voluntary password disclosure); (ii) hacking attacks (e.g., virus implantation); or (iii) force majeure events - all such risks and liabilities shall be solely borne by you.
Maintaining software security and proper operation is our shared responsibility. While we will implement necessary technical measures in accordance with legal and industry standards to reasonably and prudently protect the information and data security of your mobile devices, you expressly acknowledge and agree that we cannot provide any warranties in this regard.
