Full Policy Details

This Privacy Policy applies to any and all services, applications, platforms, websites, or other affiliated ventures offered by KiX and its affiliates. Throughout this Policy, "KiX" and "We" refer to KiX and its affiliates. "You" and "Users" refer to you, anyone who uses, subscribes to, publishes through, joins, or visits KiX.

By using KiX Services, you are giving express consent to the information handling practices described in this Policy. This Privacy Policy is also incorporated into and is subject to the KiX Terms of Use.

1. The Information That KiX May Collect

Through your use of KiX Services, the information below may be collected by KiX from time to time:

  • Information You Provide: You may provide to KiX what is generally called "personally identifiable" information (such as your name, email address, postal mailing address, and telephone numbers) if you use certain services. Your User ID and comments may be public.
  • Information collected while using the application: With your prior permission, we may collect information from your device's phone book (contacts list) and location information. This data is not shared with third parties and is used to calculate live broadcast areas and optimize recommendations.
  • "Automatically Collected" Information: Includes IP Address, unique user ID, software version, system type, content accessed, and dates/times of visits.
  • "Cookies" Information: We use cookies and similar technologies (like local storage) to operate KiX, remember preferences, and measure performance. You can manage cookies in your browser and (where available) through in-product controls.

2. How We Use Your Information

KiX uses the collected information to operate, maintain, enhance, and provide features; to track user-generated content; and to comply with applicable laws in Singapore. We may use your email for administrative communications (updates, security notices) and customer service. We also use data to understand usage trends, improve the look and feel of KiX, and create new features.

3. When KiX Discloses Information

KiX does not share credit/debit card details or personally identifiable information for marketing without your consent. We may disclose anonymous, aggregate data to interested third parties to assist in understanding usage patterns. Limited user information may be shared with affiliated companies to improve services, under strict confidentiality agreements. We may disclose information if required by law, to enforce Terms of Use, or to protect the safety of KiX and its users.

4. Cookies, Similar Technologies & Personalization

We use cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage and service workers) to keep KiX working, remember choices, and improve performance. Some technologies are set by us, and some may be set by service providers that help us operate KiX.

  • Strictly necessary: Required to provide the service you request (e.g., security, load balancing, authentication, and session management). These are typically deleted when you close your browser or after a short period, depending on their purpose.
  • Functional / preference: Remember your settings (for example, language or whether you dismissed a message). These may persist for longer (for example, days to months) unless you delete them.
  • Analytics / performance: Help us understand how KiX performs and where it breaks. For example, we load a performance monitoring script from 51.la (LingQue) on some pages. These tools may collect device and usage data (such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed, timestamps, and diagnostic events) and may use cookies or similar identifiers.
  • Advertising / personalization: We may show ads (including rewarded ads) through Google AdMob and other providers. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies (or, on mobile devices, an advertising identifier) to deliver, measure, and improve ads. Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies or enabling personalized ads.

Managing cookies: You can control cookies through your browser settings (including blocking or deleting cookies). Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of KiX from working. For mobile devices, you can also reset or limit the use of your device advertising identifier through your device settings. You can also opt out of personalized ads in Google settings. Industry opt-out pages include AdChoices and Your Online Choices.

5. Third-Party Services & SDKs

KiX uses third-party services to provide login, infrastructure, and performance monitoring. These providers may process personal data on our behalf (as service providers / data processors) or as separate controllers depending on the service.

  • Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads (Google LLC): Used to serve and measure ads (including rewarded ads). Google may collect and process device identifiers, IP address, approximate location, interaction data (such as ad impressions/clicks), and diagnostic data. Learn more: Google Advertising Technologies and How Google uses information from sites or apps .
  • Firebase (Google LLC): Used for authentication (including Google sign-in). Firebase may process identifiers, device information, IP address, and login events to provide and secure the service. Learn more: Firebase Privacy & Security .
  • Sign in with Apple (Apple Inc.): We load Apple’s sign-in JavaScript SDK to enable Apple login. Learn more: Sign in with Apple and Apple Privacy Policy .
  • 51.la (LingQue) performance monitoring: Used to monitor performance and reliability. Learn more: 51.la .

We may update providers over time. When we add a new provider that materially changes how data is processed, we will update this policy and (where required) request consent.

6. Legal Bases for Processing (EEA/UK/Switzerland)

If you are in the EEA/UK/Switzerland, we rely on the following legal bases, depending on context:

  • Contract: To provide the service you request (e.g., account login, delivering features, customer support).
  • Legitimate interests: To secure KiX, prevent fraud/abuse, debug, and improve performance (balanced against your rights).
  • Consent: For non-essential cookies and similar technologies where required by law, and for optional permissions (e.g., contacts or precise location, if enabled).
  • Legal obligation: To comply with applicable laws, regulations, and lawful requests.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to: access, correct, delete, or obtain a copy of your personal data; restrict or object to certain processing; withdraw consent (where processing is based on consent); and (where applicable) data portability.

To exercise these rights, contact sghelp@KiX.com . We may ask you to verify your identity. We aim to respond within the time required by applicable law (often within 30 days). If you are in the EEA/UK, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

8. California Privacy Notice (CCPA/CPRA)

This section applies to California residents. In the past 12 months, we may have collected the following categories of personal information: identifiers (such as email address or account ID), internet or other electronic network activity (such as pages viewed and interaction data), approximate location derived from IP address, and account/profile information you provide.

Sources: Directly from you, from your device/browser, and from service providers that help us operate KiX (for example, authentication or performance monitoring).

Purposes: To operate KiX, provide features, secure the service, debug, improve performance, and comply with law.

Disclosures: We may disclose the categories above to service providers for business purposes (for example, hosting, authentication, and performance monitoring). We do not knowingly “sell” personal information. If we “share” information for cross-context behavioral advertising (for example, to deliver or measure ads), we will provide a “Do Not Sell or Share” opt-out mechanism as required by law.

Your California rights: You may request access, deletion, and correction; and you may opt out of sale/sharing if applicable. To submit a request, email sghelp@KiX.com with the subject line “California Privacy Request” or “Do Not Sell or Share”. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

9. Data Retention

We keep personal data for as long as needed to provide KiX, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention depends on the type of data and how it is used. For example, account data is typically retained while your account is active; logs and security records may be retained for a limited period for security and troubleshooting; and we may retain aggregated or de-identified data for analytics.

10. Data Security & Incident Notification

We use physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve data integrity. However, no system is 100% secure. If a breach occurs, we will notify you electronically so you can take protective steps.

11. Children's Privacy

KiX is not for users under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If discovered, such data will be deleted. Parents can contact us to terminate a child's account.

12. International Visitors & Cross-Border Transfers

Information provided may be transferred outside your country (e.g., outside the EU) for use by KiX and its affiliates globally. By using the service, you consent to such transfers.

Where required by law, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers (for example, standard contractual clauses and supplementary measures) and limit access to those who need it to provide KiX.
