Will your information be shared with anyone else?Â
We may disclose your personal information with our service providers pursuant to a written contract between us and each service provider. Each service provider is a for-profit entity that processes the information on our behalf, following the same strict privacy protection obligations mandated by the CCPA.Â
We may use your personal information for our own business purposes, such as for undertaking research for technological development and demonstration. This is not considered to be  "selling"  of your personal information. Â
We have not disclosed, sold, or shared any personal information to third parties for a business or commercial purpose in the preceding twelve (12) months. We will not sell or share personal information in the future belonging to website visitors, users, and other consumers. Â
For Qinahub.com members, all personal and sensitive health data is securely stored and de-identified by the third party provider with explicit consent from the user. The aggregated -de-identified data will be made available as a dashboard on a fee basis to qina.tech users. The de-identified and aggregated data is used for commercial and research purposes and may be used more than once or for as long as the user subscribes to the platform.Â

Verification processÂ
Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system. These verification efforts require us to ask you to provide information so that we can match it with information you have previously provided us. For instance, depending on the type of request you submit, we may ask you to provide certain information so that we can match the information you provide with the information we already have on file, or we may contact you through a communication method (e.g. ,  phone or email) that you have previously provided to us. We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances dictate.Â
We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes of verification. However, if we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes. We will delete such additionally provided information as soon as we finish verifying you.Â

- You may request to opt out from future selling or sharing of your personal information to third parties. Upon receiving an opt-out request, we will act upon the request as soon as feasibly possible, but no later than fifteen (15) days from the date of the request submission. Â
