To provide you with end-to-end encrypted calling, messaging and other T3Meeting services, we ensure to safeguard the trust you place upon us by sharing of certain information about you. The subsequent document, therefore, explains here in transparent terms how we do so.

We keep our privacy policy under regular review and may update it from time to time. Therefore, please check our privacy policy from time to time for any updates.
It is important that the personal data we hold about you is accurate and current. Please keep us informed if your personal data changes during our relationship with you.

Please note that these websites and any services that may be accessible through them have their own privacy policies which the users must read before submitting any personal data to these websites or using these services.

During your usage of the App, some third parties may also provide us with certain information about you. Typically, this includes your friends on our App, who automatically deliver your phone number(s) when they contact you. Similarly, any profile detail, including your name, phone number, or any other personal detail made public by you will be storable or usable by other users of the App. Any message sent to other users using the service will also be available to them for use in whichever way they like. It is, therefore, your responsibility not to disclose anything that may be sensitive to you in nature.
Similarly, when you involve a third-party service on our App, say to share some of your T3Meeting activities over their platform, we may receive some of the data those services may have of you. Furthermore, for our marketing and commercial requirements, a part of the profiling done on the user may be shared with a third-party vendor to optimise the resources invested. Please note that the privacy policies and terms of such third-parties govern the usage of shared information, and not of T3Meeting’s.
We do not store your messages or communications. If you decide on your own to store your T3Meeting messages on third party cloud storages (like Google Drive or iCloud), please be informed that in such cases, the privacy policies and terms of use of such third-party services come into effect when you use their services.
We may share your data once consent is given by you to our sister companies or if we go for a merger or organizational restructure.
We ensure your personal data is protected by requiring all our group companies to follow the same rules when processing your personal data. These rules are called "binding corporate rules".
All your correspondence with T3Meeting, including feedback, suggestions, bug reports, reporting of objectionable content, or any conversations conducted either via the App or through other means of contact including emails or website contact form, are kept saved for recordkeeping and continuous improvement purposes.
If you are based in the European Economic Area (EEA), the processing of your personal data by our external third parties will involve the transfer of your data outside the EEA, as many of them are based outside that region.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the country of your residence, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring that such service providers give us a written undertaking that they will give personal data the same protection it has in the EEA and in this privacy policy.
Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the country of your residence.
Since our App deals extensively with the exchange of information, we understand how vital it is to safeguard that information. For that, we have placed the best security protocols in the structure of the App, including end-to-end encryption for your messages. End-to-end encryption means that nobody, except the generator of the message and the intended receiver, will have the access to your private conversations. The protocol also covers end-to-end encrypted one-on-one calls so that no unintended third-party can eavesdrop.
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Where we send you an OTP (which is temporary and valid only for a limited time), you are responsible for keeping this OTP confidential. We ask you not to share this temporary OTP with anyone.
Once we have received your information, we will use reasonable procedures and security features to try to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way.
Your Data is stored directly on your own device storage.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator when we are legally required to do so.
If at any time in future we add the payment features to our App (in which case you will be informed in advance), any payment transactions facilitated by us or our chosen third-party provider of payment processing services will be encrypted using appropriate encryption technology.
We retain your data for a maximum period of 30 days, in a secure end-to-end encrypted manner. We do not store your data on any of our servers beyond that period.
However, law might require us to keep some basic information about our customers including contact, identity etc. In such conditions, we are bound to comply with laws and if we do so, we will keep the minimum possible data and for the shortest possible time as prescribed by law.
Your messages, which our end-to-end encryption services secure by encrypting them (including chats, calls, and multimedia content like photos, videos, and voice messages), remain in our system up to the point of delivery, which is a maximum of 7 days. Your device, however, may independently accumulate sent and received messages. To know more about how your chat is made secure, read the section on ‘Data Security’.
Under certain circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
As a T3Meeting user, you are free to control, alter, delete, or primarily; manage your information, whenever you want. More details regarding your account information are provided below:
Information Accessibility: Your information such as, profile name, photo, online status, status message, recently viewed items, or phone number may be accessible to someone who uses our services. You can go to service settings to manage who can see, store, or share your personal information.
Account Deletion: If you choose to delete your account, your messages too will be erased, including the undelivered ones. We will also delete any other data that is not necessitated by law for retention. Even the messages that remain undelivered will erase from our systems after a period of maximum 30 days.
