Some content may be public by default or visible to selected audiences depending on the feature and your privacy settings. Public content may be viewed, copied, downloaded, shared, indexed, cached, screenshotted, archived, or redistributed by other users or third parties. Red Tech cannot guarantee removal of copies made outside our control.

  • Message content, attachments, timestamps, participants, delivery status, read receipts, typing indicators, and communication metadata;

  • Reports of messages or conversations submitted by users;

Direct messages are intended to be private between participants, but they are not guaranteed to be end-to-end encrypted unless Red Tech clearly states otherwise. Red Tech may access, review, preserve, or disclose messages when necessary to operate the Services, enforce our policies, investigate abuse, protect users, prevent fraud, comply with legal obligations, or respond to valid legal requests.

2.4 Device, Log, and Technical Information

When you use Red Tech, we may automatically collect:

  • IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, app version, device identifiers, mobile network, language, time zone, referring pages, visited pages, clicks, interactions, session duration, and crash logs;

  • Approximate location inferred from IP address;

  • Cookie identifiers, analytics identifiers, advertising identifiers, and similar technical identifiers.

2.5 Location Information

Red Tech may collect location-related information when you provide it, enable location permissions, use check-ins, nearby features, marketplace location tools, events, ads, or other location-based features.

Location information may include:

  • Country, city, region, or approximate location;

  • Precise location only if you grant permission through your device or browser;

  • Location added manually to posts, profiles, listings, events, or other content.

You can usually disable location permissions through your device or browser settings. Some Red Tech features may not work properly without location access.

  • Limited payment metadata from payment processors;

  • Tax, accounting, anti-fraud, chargeback, and compliance information.

2.9 Sensitive Personal Information

Red Tech does not require users to provide sensitive personal information such as religious beliefs, political opinions, health information, biometric data, government identification documents, precise financial information, or similar sensitive data unless a specific feature requires it and appropriate notice is provided.

Because Red Tech is a social platform, users may voluntarily post or upload content that contains sensitive information.

8. Advertising, Sale, and Sharing of Personal Information

Red Tech does not sell personal information for money.

However, some privacy laws define “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising” broadly to include certain advertising cookies, tracking pixels, analytics tools, or data sharing with advertising partners.

Where required by law, Red Tech will provide a way to opt out of:

  • Sale of personal information;

Red Tech may also honor recognized browser-based opt-out signals where legally required and technically feasible.

Red Tech keeps personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

Retention periods may depend on:

13. Children and Minors

Red Tech is not intended for children under the age of 13, and Red Tech does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without legally required parental consent.

If you are under the age required to use online services in your country, you may use Red Tech only with permission from a parent or legal guardian where permitted by law.

If Red Tech learns that personal information has been collected from a child in violation of applicable law, Red Tech will take reasonable steps to delete it.

Parents or guardians who believe a child has provided personal information to Red Tech may contact Red Tech through the available support or contact tools on the Platform.

Red Tech may apply age gates, content restrictions, visibility limits, parental consent processes, or other protections where required by law.

14. Content Moderation, Reports, and Safety Reviews

Red Tech may review content, accounts, messages, reports, appeals, and activity to enforce our Terms, Community Guidelines, legal obligations, and safety standards.

Moderation may be performed manually, automatically, or using automated tools. Moderation actions may include warnings, labels, reduced distribution, content removal, feature restrictions, account suspension, account termination, reporting to authorities, or preserving evidence.

If you submit a report, Red Tech may process your account information, the reported content, reasons for reporting, and related context. Red Tech may share limited information with the reported user if necessary to explain enforcement action or provide an appeal process, but Red Tech will try to avoid disclosing your identity unless required by law or necessary for safety.

15. Automated Processing and Recommendations

Red Tech may use automated systems to:

  • Recommend users, posts, pages, groups, events, marketplace listings, ads, or content;

  • Rank feeds, search results, notifications, and suggestions;

  • Detect spam, fraud, fake accounts, abuse, or policy violations;

  • Personalize content and improve user experience;

  • Measure advertising and platform performance.

Automated systems may not always be accurate. You can adjust some preferences through your settings, hide content, unfollow users, block users, report content, or use available support tools if you believe an automated decision significantly affects you.

16. Security

Red Tech uses reasonable technical, organizational, and administrative measures designed to protect personal information, including access controls, encryption where appropriate, monitoring, backups, and security reviews.

However, no website, application, database, or internet transmission is completely secure. Red Tech cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your password confidential, using strong passwords, enabling available security features, and promptly reporting suspected unauthorized access.

17. Data Breaches

If Red Tech becomes aware of a data breach affecting personal information, Red Tech will take reasonable steps to investigate, reduce harm, and notify affected users or regulators where required by law.

Not every security incident is a legally reportable breach. Red Tech will assess incidents according to applicable legal requirements.

18. International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed and stored in countries other than the country where you live. These countries may have different data protection laws.

Where required by law, Red Tech uses appropriate safeguards for international transfers, which may include contractual safeguards, adequacy mechanisms, consent, or other lawful transfer methods.

By using Red Tech, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in countries where Red Tech or its service providers operate.

19. Third-Party Links, Services, and Content

Red Tech may contain links to third-party websites, advertisements, applications, payment pages, embedded content, social login providers, plugins, or services.

Red Tech is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or policies of third parties. You should review their privacy policies before interacting with them or providing information.

Interactions with third-party services may be visible to those services and governed by their own terms and policies.

20. API and Developer Features

If Red Tech offers developer tools, APIs, apps, or integrations, developers may access information according to the permissions granted and the functionality used.

Developers must comply with Red Tech’s developer requirements, privacy requirements, and applicable law. However, Red Tech is not responsible for third-party developers’ independent processing of data once information is shared according to permissions or integration functionality.

You should only connect trusted apps and revoke access when no longer needed.

21. Account Deletion and Content Removal

You may be able to delete certain content or request account deletion through settings or support tools available on Red Tech.

When content or an account is deleted:

  • Some information may be removed from public view;

  • Copies may remain in backups for a limited period;

  • Content shared by others may remain if they posted it independently;

  • Messages may remain visible to other conversation participants;

  • Records may be retained where necessary for legal, security, fraud-prevention, accounting, dispute-resolution, or policy-enforcement purposes;

  • Search engines or third parties may retain cached or copied content beyond Red Tech’s control.

Red Tech will process deletion requests according to applicable law and technical limitations.

22. Marketing Communications

Red Tech may send marketing emails, promotional messages, newsletters, or offers where permitted by law.

You can opt out of marketing communications through unsubscribe links, notification settings, account settings, or other available controls.

Even if you opt out of marketing, Red Tech may still send non-marketing messages such as account alerts, security notices, payment confirmations, service updates, or legal notices.

23. Push Notifications, Email, and SMS

If you enable notifications, Red Tech may send push notifications, emails, SMS messages, or in-platform alerts about account activity, messages, comments, reactions, security alerts, transactions, events, promotions, or other activity.

You can manage notification preferences through account settings, device settings, browser permissions, email unsubscribe links, or available notification controls.

Carrier charges may apply for SMS messages.

24. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Controls

Some browsers provide “Do Not Track” signals. Because there is no consistent industry standard for responding to these signals, Red Tech may not respond to them unless required by law.

Where legally required and technically feasible, Red Tech may honor recognized opt-out preference signals such as Global Privacy Control.

25. Data Accuracy

You are responsible for keeping your account information accurate and up to date. You may update certain information through your account settings.

Red Tech is not responsible for harm caused by inaccurate information you provide or fail to update.

26. User Responsibilities

To protect privacy and reduce legal risk, you agree not to:

  • Post personal information about others without permission;

  • Upload private, confidential, illegal, harmful, or sensitive information unless you have the legal right to do so;

  • Share passwords, verification codes, or account access;

  • Use Red Tech to harass, impersonate, scam, defraud, or harm others;

  • Scrape, harvest, sell, or misuse personal information from Red Tech;

  • Upload content that violates privacy, publicity, intellectual property, data protection, or other legal rights.

Red Tech may remove content, restrict features, suspend accounts, or terminate accounts that violate these rules.

27. Changes to This Privacy Policy

Red Tech may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

If changes are material, Red Tech may notify users through the Platform, email, account notices, or other reasonable means. The updated Privacy Policy becomes effective when posted unless a later effective date is stated.

Your continued use of Red Tech after an update means you acknowledge the updated Privacy Policy.

28. Contacting Red Tech

If you have questions, requests, complaints, or concerns about this Privacy Policy or Red Tech’s privacy practices, you may contact Red Tech through the contact, help, or support tools available on the Platform.

If you submit a privacy request, Red Tech may ask for enough information to verify your identity and understand your request. You should not send sensitive documents unless Red Tech specifically requests them through a secure method.

29. Region-Specific Notices

Where required by law, additional regional notices may apply. If a regional notice conflicts with the general sections of this Privacy Policy, the regional notice will apply only to users in that region and only to the extent required by applicable law.

Red Tech may provide separate notices for cookies, children, payments, ads, marketplace features, identity verification, biometric processing, or other special processing activities if such features are enabled.
