This Mazodia Privacy Policy explains how Mazodia (“Mazodia”, “we”, or”us”) process any personal data we collect from visitors and any applications, services provided in relation to the website (collectively, the “Mazodia Services”).
We value the privacy of users, subscribers, publishers, members, and others who visit and use the Mazodia Services (collectively or individually, “you” or “users”) and want you to be familiar with how we collect, use, and disclose personal information from and about you.
You may share personal information when using the Mazodia Services. One example is when you provide information about yourself as part of the Mazodia account creation process. Another is when you take certain actions on the Mazodia Services that are public or intended to be public in nature, such as when you broadcast content, post profile information, follow a channel, or subscribe to a broadcast channel. Given the social nature of some of the Mazodia Services, that information may be collected, used, or disclosed by others who are part of that social interaction. In addition, some features of the Mazodia Services are designed to provide others with information about user activity, such as identifying the user who created a particular Clip or the subscription status of users for a given channel. We encourage you to be mindful of this when considering your activity on the Mazodia Services.
If you have any questions about how we use your personal data, please contact [email protected]
We obtain information about you through the means discussed below when we provide the Mazodia Services. Please note that we need certain types of information so that we can provide the Mazodia Services to you.
