LOCATION INFORMATION NOTICE

Ogyhi Service is capable of allowing others to know where you are located using real-time location information. To provide this aspect of the Ogyhi Service, Ogyhi collects, uses and discloses your personal data and the real-time geographic location of your cell phone or other mobile device - we call this "location data". Please note that this location tracking may occur even when the Ogyhi Service is not actively running on your cell phone or other mobile device. By providing your consent, you authorize Ogyhi and your mobile operator to collect, access, use and disclose the geographic location information of your carrier device and other personal and account information (i.e. name, address, telephone number, account number, equipment identifiers, Internet Protocol addresses, etc.) to certain third parties in order to enable the delivery and administration of your selected LBS application; including the functions that are incidental and necessary to such delivery (i.e. invoicing, etc.). You also expressly authorize Ogyhi to collect and use this location data and to disclose this location data to Ogyhi contractors, and certain third-party partners that provide features and functionality within or distribution of the Ogyhi Service and to any persons that you choose to accept and consent to view and use your location through. At any time, you may approve or deny a particular person from access to your location by changing your Ogyhi Service privacy settings. You have the right at any time to reject these uses of your location data and to deny or withdraw your consent; denial of consent will not affect your regular mobile phone service, but will prevent you from using Ogyhi Service. To stop sharing your location entirely at any time or withdraw your consent to Ogyhi use of location data - send "STOP" to 02031372222 or do so at www.ogyhi.com. Furthermore, by providing your consent, you (1) acknowledge that your consent serves as consent on behalf of all persons who use your carrier device ("End Users"); (2) acknowledge that you are responsible for notifying each End User that their geographic location information may be identified through your carrier device using the Ogyhi Service; and (3) agree that you will clearly, conspicuously, and regularly notify in writing all End Users that their location may be identified through your carrier device using the Ogyhi Service.

Privacy Notice

Ogyhi is owned and operated by Ogyhi, (“Ogyhi”). Ogyhi values the privacy of our customers, users, and others who use the Ogyhi application (collectively or individually “Users”). This privacy notice governs the Ogyhi application (the “Ogyhi Services”). The great majority of our Users will use the Ogyhi Services appropriately for fun and social purposes. However, please note that by its very nature, your real-time location information is subject to abuse, misuse, and over-monitoring by others including, perhaps, by your friends, family, or acquaintances. You can manage your own mobile and profile privacy preferences on the Ogyhi Services on an ongoing basis to minimize the chance of harmful use.

Please be aware that any personally identifiable information or location information that you voluntarily disclose online becomes publicly available and can be read, collected, and used by others and could be used to send unsolicited messages.

General Information:

This Privacy Notice details important information regarding the use and disclosure of User information collected through the Ogyhi Services from both the mobile and web interfaces. Your use of the Ogyhi Services and any personal information you provide on the Ogyhi Services remains subject to the terms of this Privacy Notice.

Location Information Disclosures and Consents:

Disclosures. Ogyhi allows your “Ogyhi friends” to see where you are located using real-time location information. Ogyhi collects, maintains, uses, and displays your personal data and the real-time geographic location of your mobile device (“location data”). Please note that this real-time location tracking may occur even when the Ogyhi application is not actively open and running on your mobile device. By law, we are required to protect the confidentiality of your location data and to get your express consent to collect, maintain, use, and display your location data as part of providing the application Ogyhi. You have the right at any time to deny or withdraw your consent to the disclosure of your location data. Your denial of consent will not affect your regular mobile phone service, but will prevent you from using Ogyhi. In order to withdraw your consent, which will prevent your wireless carrier from disclosing your location information and will prevent you from using the Ogyhi application, access your account on Ogyhi, go to the “account” link, and click “Cancel my account”. When you cancel your account, your personally-identifiable information, except for your mobile telephone number, is deleted from our database. We must retain your mobile telephone number for your carrier’s purposes and Ogyhi’s customer service needs. We delete your mobile telephone number after a reasonable time.

Your Location Information. In registering for the Ogyhi Services, you have agreed and consented: (a) to Ogyhi collection, use, maintenance, and display of your location data to provide all of the services, features, and functionality found within Ogyhi; (b) to the disclosure and display of your location data to your Ogyhi friends, your carrier and Ogyhi third-party partners, contractors, and successors, and in accordance with this Privacy Notice; (c) to receive SMS text messages; and (d) that Ogyhi may terminate your subscription without notice and for any reason. You have the right at any time to disapprove these uses and to deny or withdraw access to your Location Data. Denial of Consent will not affect your regular phone service but will prevent you from getting the location functions of the Ogyhi Service. In addition, you have expressly agreed to receive SMS text messages from Ogyhi and you acknowledge that normal carrier charges and taxes may apply to SMS text messages to and from Ogyhi. Please see the Your Choices section below with information regarding how to withdraw your consent to Ogyhi use of Location Information and promotional SMSs.

Inviting Friends. If you choose to use “invite friends”, then Ogyhi will ask you for your friend’s mobile phone number. If you provide a friend’s mobile phone number, then Ogyhi will automatically send to that friend a one-time text message inviting your friend to join the Ogyhi Service and to add you as their friend. If your friend’s phone number is on a wireless provider that is not supported by Ogyhi, then your friend will not receive this text message. The message will be pending until it is either accepted or rejected by the friend. If you provide a friend’s email address, then Ogyhi will automatically send that friend a one-time email inviting your friend to register on the Ogyhi website. If your friend rejects the invitation, your friend’s contact information is removed from Ogyhi.
