You understand and agree that we are committed to creating a variety of products and services to meet your needs. We may provide you with a wide range of products and services, and specific products and services different users choose to use are different in scope; accordingly, there will be differences in functions and the types and scopes of personal information collected and used, and reference should be made to specific product/service functions.

(i) Personal information directly provided by you
Contact and account information. When you create a Realsee account or try to contact us, we may ask you for personal information such as your name, contact address and email address. You can use our agency services provided that your agency has already created an agency account and added you as an employee.

We will verify your identity and bind the corporate account of your agency according to the personal information you provided when you created the Realsee account. Or, we may, under a separate agreement with your agency, provide you with an agency employee account in which we set the user name and initial password. If you are the administrator of your agency, you can apply to Realsee to create an agency account on behalf of your agency. You may need to provide your agency name, country/region, organization scale, email address, position, and applicable laws and other information required by the separate agreement between us and your agency, so that we can review your application and create an agency account and administrator rights for you, allowing you to manage through the agency account, including creating rules of use of your agency, adding/reducing agency employees, and the like.

When you transact online goods or services with a third party through Realsee Service, you will inevitably have to disclose your personal information, such as contact information or postal address, to the counterparty or potential counterparty. Please properly protect your personal information and only provide it to others if necessary.
To deal with risks of disclosure, damage and loss of personal information, Realsee Service has developed a number of policies and set up an emergency response team.

After a personal Information security incident takes place, we will, in accordance with the requirements of the applicable laws, promptly inform you of the basic situation and possible impact of the security incident, the measures we have taken or will take to deal with it, the suggestions that you can independently prevent and reduce the risk, the remedial measures for you, and so on. We will timely inform you of the relevant information by email, letter, phone call, push notification, and the like. If it is difficult to inform the subjects of personal information one by one, we will take a reasonable and effective way to publish the announcement. At the same time, we will also, in accordance with the requirements of regulatory authorities, take the initiative to report the handling of the personal information security incident.
5. We recommend that you use complex passwords when using communication tools such as email, instant messaging and social networking software, and take care to protect your personal information. If you find that your personal information is disclosed or we have a security vulnerability or a suspicious security event, especially the leakage of your account and password, please contact us immediately through the contact information specified in this Privacy Policy, so that we can take appropriate measures and unauthorized attempt or verification of vulnerabilities is prohibited.
