Yozax collects certain information to provide and improve our services. This information is collected from advertisers (our customers) and the users who may receive SMS messages from those advertisers. The information we collect is classified into the following categories:

1.1. Information Collected from Advertisers

  • Account Information: When you create a Yozax Ads account, we collect information necessary to set up and manage your account, including your name, email address, company details, and billing information.

  • Sender Name Information: We collect and validate the alphanumeric sender names you use for your campaigns to ensure compliance with our policies.

1.2. Information Collected from Message Recipients

  • Profile Attributes: Yozax stores anonymised user attributes such as name, city, country, language, and interests. This information is used to target recipients for your SMS campaigns.
  • Delivery Data: We may collect data on the delivery status of your SMS campaigns, such as whether the message was successfully delivered, failed, or was undeliverable.

2. How We Use Collected Information

Yozax uses the information we collect for the following purposes:

2.1. To Provide Our Services

  • We use the information collected from advertisers to set up, deliver, and manage SMS campaigns, including targeting recipients based on specific attributes and ensuring that SMS messages comply with applicable laws.

Yozax is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of your information. We will not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties except in the following situations:

3.1. Service Providers

  • Yozax may share your information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in delivering our services. These providers may include SMS delivery providers, payment processors, and IT support teams. These service providers are bound by confidentiality agreements and are only permitted to use your information as necessary to perform their services.

3.2. Legal Compliance

  • We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, or in response to a legal process, such as a court order, government request, or subpoena. Yozax will also disclose information where necessary to enforce our Terms and Conditions, prevent fraud, or protect the safety of our users and platform.

3.3. Business Transfers

  • In the event that Yozax is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you in advance of any such transfer and inform you of any changes to this Privacy Policy.

Data relating to campaigns and delivery status will be retained to comply with applicable laws and regulations or as required for legitimate business purposes.

Once your account is terminated or your use of the platform ends, we will either delete or anonymise your information, unless we are legally obligated to retain it.
