We do not share your Personal Data with third parties for their marketing purposes without your consent.
How Do We Work with Other Services and Platforms?
A significant benefit and innovation of Baelio technologies incorporated ’s services are that you can connect your account with a third-party account or platform. For the purposes of this Privacy Statement, an “account connection” with such a third-party is a connection you authorize or enable between your account and a non-Baelio technologies incorporated account, payment instrument, or platform that you lawfully control or own.
When you authorize such a connection, Baelio technologies incorporated and the third-party will exchange your Personal Data and other information directly. Examples of account connections include:
- linking your account to a social media account or social messaging service.
- connecting your account to a third-party data aggregation or financial services company, if you provide such company with your account log-in credentials; or
- using your account to make payments to a merchant or allowing a merchant to charge your Account.
If you choose to create an account connection, we may receive information from the third-party about you and your use of the third-party’s service. For example, if you connect your account to a social media account, we will receive Personal Data from the social media provider via the account connection. If you connect your account to other financial accounts, directly or through a third-party service provider, we may have access to your account balance and transactional information, such as purchases and funds transfers. We will use all such information that we receive from a third-party via an account connection in a manner consistent with this Privacy Statement.
Information that we share with a third-party based on an account connection will be used and disclosed in accordance with the third-party’s privacy practices. Before authorizing an account connection, you should review the privacy notice of any third-party that will gain access to your Personal Data as part of the account connection. For example, Personal Data that Baelio technologies incorporated shares with a third-party account or platform such as a social media account may in turn be shared with certain other parties, including the public, depending on the accounts or platform’s privacy practices.
