Wallet and transaction information

Hitzio maintains records associated with account balances, rewards, campaign funding, adjustments, withdrawals and other relevant platform transactions.

Transaction records may be retained where reasonably necessary for accounting, security, dispute resolution, fraud prevention and platform integrity.

Hitzio may use validation and anti-abuse controls before campaign activity is counted or charged.

Security and fraud prevention

Hitzio uses technical and operational controls intended to protect accounts and reduce fraudulent, duplicate or automated activity.

Security systems may evaluate account activity, sessions, network signals, browser information, campaign events and other relevant indicators.

Security signals may be retained or compared when reasonably necessary to investigate abuse, protect advertiser budgets, protect member accounts or enforce platform rules.

Cookies and session technologies

Hitzio may use cookies and similar technologies necessary for account login, session management, security, preferences and core website functionality.

Additional technologies may be used where third-party services are integrated into Hitzio. Where legally required, appropriate notices or consent mechanisms may be provided.

Third-party services

Hitzio may rely on third-party service providers for functions such as infrastructure, security, email delivery, verification, analytics, payment processing or other platform operations.

These providers may process information only as required to provide their relevant services and subject to their own terms and privacy practices.

Advertisements and destination websites displayed through Hitzio may lead to websites operated by third parties. Hitzio does not control the privacy practices of those external websites.

When information may be shared

Hitzio does not need to publicly expose private member information in order to operate normal earning or advertising activity.

Information may, however, be disclosed where reasonably necessary:

• To service providers supporting Hitzio operations.
• To protect the security or integrity of Hitzio.
• To investigate suspected fraud or abuse.
• To comply with applicable legal obligations.
• To establish, exercise or defend legal rights.
• As part of a legitimate business restructuring or transfer, subject to applicable requirements.

Data retention

Hitzio may retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, maintain transaction records, prevent abuse, resolve disputes, protect platform integrity and satisfy applicable legal obligations.

Different types of information may have different retention periods depending on their purpose and applicable requirements.

Your privacy choices and rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have certain rights concerning personal information, which may include requesting access, correction or deletion of eligible information.

Some information may need to be retained where required for security, transaction records, fraud prevention, dispute handling or legal compliance.

Privacy-related requests can be submitted through the Hitzio Contact page.
