Processing and Use of Information
- •Ognee will strictly comply with this Privacy Policy and the contents stated in its updates to process and use your information. Your information will only be used for the purposes and scope determined at the time of collection and with your consent. If there are any other purposes beyond this, we will seek your consent in advance. We may use your personal information for the following purposes:

- •The information we collect may be used for the personalized design of products and to provide you with more tailored services, such as displaying content tailored specifically for you in our services.
- For more detailed information on how we use your information (which may include personal information), below are more details:
- •Creating your Ognee account: Personal information collected when creating an Ognee account through a mobile device is used to establish the user's personal Ognee account and profile page.
- •Providing Ognee login connection services: Information collected (device-related information, including device number, MAC address, device type, system and performance information, and location information such as mobile country code, mobile network code, and location area code) is used to activate Ognee services for user authentication and service activation.
- •Binding devices and syncing data: To synchronize data, allow devices to receive instructions, and upload data to the server (only applicable to some features/services), we collect account information, device-related information, and network information.
- •Providing location-based services: When using Ognee, we may use location information to provide you with the correct version of services and provide accurate location for the best user experience, such as wifi information.

If you do not use this feature, you can disable it in settings and delete facial information in face management.
