At Yito, the protection of your information is paramount, yet we acknowledge the inherent limitations of data security on the internet and electronic databases. Yito implements a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

3. Your Rights Regarding Data Protection in the UK

If you reside in the UK, you're protected under the nation's stringent data protection regulations, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). We are dedicated to protecting your rights and safeguarding your personal data.

Yito is committed to ensuring you can fully exercise your rights to data protection:

  • Access to Information: You have the right to obtain a copy of the personal data we have on file for you.
  • Correction of Data: Should you find any of your personal data in our possession to be inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request an amendment.

  • Revocation of Consent: In instances where our processing of your personal data is contingent upon your consent, you hold the right to revoke such consent at any given time.

We might ask for specific details from you to help confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security step aimed at ensuring personal data is not shared with anyone who has no right to receive it.

Your rights regarding data protection are safeguarded under UK data protection laws, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. For more comprehensive information, you're encouraged to visit the official website of the UK's Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) (www.ico.org.uk).

3.1 Requesting the Erasure of Your Personal Data

Upon your request, we will remove your personal data from our databases as of the request date and ensure our service providers do the same. In certain instances, the removal process may involve making your data anonymous rather than deleting it entirely. Please be aware, requesting the deletion of your data or the cessation of its sale might influence your interaction with our services, potentially restricting your participation in certain activities or benefits that necessitate the use of your personal data. However, rest assured, exercising your rights will never lead to any form of discrimination from us.

3.2 Halting the Sale of Your Personal Data

At Yito, we uphold a strict policy of not selling or leasing your personal data to any external entities. You retain complete ownership of your personal data, with the freedom to request its revelation or eradication at any moment.

4. Service Providers

To enhance the quality of our Service, we collaborate with third-party companies and professionals (“Service Providers”) who carry out certain tasks on our behalf, including but not limited to providing services, performing service-related duties, or assisting in the analysis of how our services are utilised.

These external partners are granted access to your Personal Data solely for the purpose of executing these tasks on our behalf and are strictly bound by confidentiality agreements not to disclose or use your information for any unrelated purposes.

5. Google Analytics

Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, assists in tracking and reporting on website traffic. This tool enables Google to follow the usage patterns on our Service, integrating this data with other Google services. Consequently, Google may tailor the advertisements on its network based on the information gathered.

For insights into Google's data privacy measures, you are invited to explore the Google Privacy Terms web page: Google Privacy Terms.

Furthermore, we recommend reviewing Google's guidelines for data protection: Google's Data Protection Policy.

6. Behavioural Remarketing

At Yito, we utilise remarketing techniques to show you adverts on third-party sites once you've visited our Service. By employing cookies, both we and our external advertising partners aim to tailor and deliver ads that resonate with your previous interactions with our Service.

Google Ads (AdWords): Provided by Google Inc., this service offers an option for users to opt out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and personalise the ads within the Google Display Network by visiting the Google Ads Settings page. Google also recommends installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on (Google Analytics Opt-out) for your web browser, allowing users to prevent their data from being utilised by Google Analytics. For more detailed information on Google's privacy protocols, please visit the Google Privacy Terms web page: Google Privacy Terms.

Facebook: The remarketing service provided by Facebook Inc. helps users understand interest-based advertising more thoroughly by directing them to Facebook Advertising Help. To opt-out of Facebook's interest-based ads, follow these instructions provided by Facebook: Facebook Ad Preferences. Facebook complies with the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioural Advertising established by the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA). Users can opt out from Facebook and other participating companies through the DAA in the USA (DAA Opt-Out), the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada in Canada (DAAC Opt-Out), or the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance in Europe (EDAA Opt-Out), or adjust settings on their mobile devices. For further insight into Facebook's data practices, please consult Facebook's Data Policy: Facebook Data Policy.

These tools and settings are provided to ensure you have control over your personal information and the ads you see, aligning with the UK's commitment to protecting user privacy online.

7. Payments

For the provision of our paid products and services, Yito engages the expertise of external payment processing platforms.

We ensure the security of your payment details by not storing or collecting this sensitive information ourselves. Instead, these details are processed and managed directly by our chosen third-party payment service providers, who operate under strict privacy policies. These providers comply with the PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard), which is enforced by the PCI Security Standards Council, an initiative co-founded by leading payment card companies such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. The adherence to PCI-DSS protocols guarantees the protective handling of your payment data.

Among the payment processors we utilize is Stripe, known for its robust privacy practices. You can review Stripe's Privacy Policy here: Stripe Privacy Policy.

8. Site Links

Within Yito's service, you might encounter links leading to external platforms, including but not limited to productivity and project management tools like Microsoft's SharePoint and Atlassian's Jira. Clicking on a link to third-party sites will redirect you away from our site to another. It's prudent to examine the Privacy Policies of these external sites upon arrival.

We underline that our influence does not extend to the content, privacy measures, or procedures upheld by third-party sites or services, including SharePoint, Jira, or others. Our recommendation for thorough privacy policy reviews extends especially to these platforms, given their widespread use in professional contexts.

9. Privacy for Young Users

Yito's services are not designed for individuals under the age of 14. We do not intentionally gather personal information from anyone under this age bracket. Should it come to your attention that a minor has supplied us with their personal details, we urge you to get in touch with us immediately. Upon discovering that personal data from a young person has been collected without the confirmation of parental consent, we commit to taking necessary actions to delete such information from our database.

10. Modifications to Our Privacy Policy

Yito reserves the right to periodically adjust this Privacy Policy. Should there be any updates, we will ensure these changes are visible on this website.

We will also reach out via email and/or place a noticeable notice on our Service to alert you about these updates before they become active, and we'll adjust the "effective date" mentioned at the start of the Privacy Policy.
