  • Any third party (including our affiliates), including through any application or content that may link to or be accessible from the Website.

Please read this Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, your choice is not to use our Website. By accessing or using our Website, you agree to this Policy. This Policy may change from time to time (see “Changes to Our Privacy Policy” below). Your continued use of our Website after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the Policy periodically for updates.

For purposes of this Policy, “personal information” means any information by which you may be personally identified, such as name, email address, telephone number, and any other identifier by which you may be contacted online or offline.

In general, you can visit our Website without having to send us any personal information.  However, if you desire to obtain certain services from Bryj, we may ask you to provide certain personal information.

Bryj agrees to:

  • Directly from you when you provide it to us.
  • Automatically as you navigate through our Website. Information collected automatically may include usage details, IP addresses, and information collected through cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies.
  • From third parties, for example, our business partners.

C.  The personal information we collect on or through our Website may include:

  • Records and copies of your correspondence (including email addresses), if you contact us.
  • Your responses to surveys that we might ask you to complete for research purposes.

D.  Information We Collect Through Automatic Data Collection Technologies 

As you navigate through and interact with our Website, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns, including:

  • Information about your computer and internet connection, including your IP address, operating system, and browser type.

We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking). Some web browsers may give you the ability to enable a “do not track” feature that sends signals to the websites you visit, instructing them that you do not want your online activities to be tracked. Be aware that this is different from blocking or deleting cookies, and that browsers with “do not track” features enabled may still accept cookies. Our Website does generally recognize and respond to “do not track” signals, using a third party application. 

The information we collect automatically may include personal information, or we may maintain it or associate it with personal information we collect in other ways or receive from third parties. It helps us to improve our Website and to deliver a better and more personalized service, including by enabling us to:

  • Estimate our audience sizes and usage patterns.

12.  California and Nevada Privacy Rights

California Residents

If you are a California resident, California law may provide you with additional rights regarding our use of your personal information.

We may share your personal information with third parties and affiliated third parties (such as local, state and regional affiliates and affiliate alliances), but they do not share your personal information for their direct marketing purposes.  As these third parties and this category of affiliated third parties are considered an unaffiliated party under California law, you may opt-out of our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.  To opt out, please contact us as described in Section 13 (Contact Information) below.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), gives California consumers enhanced rights with respect to their personal information that is collected by businesses.  First, California consumers may opt out of having their personal information sold to other persons or parties. Also, such consumers have a right to know:

  1. What specific pieces of personal information a business has about the consumer;
  2. Categories of personal information it has collected about the consumer;
  3. Categories of sources from which the personal information is collected;
  4. Categories of personal information that the business sold or disclosed for a business purpose about the consumer;
  5. Categories of third parties to whom the personal information was sold or disclosed for a business purpose; and
  6. The business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling personal information.

In addition, California consumers can request that the personal information a business has collected about them be deleted from the business’s systems and records.

Bryj may be considered a covered business under the CCPA as it collects and processes the personal information of California consumers. This Policy provides the required notices to California consumers. The CCPA also prohibits covered businesses from engaging in discriminatory treatment to California consumers who exercise their rights under CCPA. 

Bryj will not rent or sell your personal information to unaffiliated third parties for their marketing purposes. We may share your information with third parties to provide products and services you have requested, when we have your consent, or as described in this Policy. 

To make a “request to know” or “request to delete” your personal information under CCPA, send us an e-mail at dpo@bryj.ai. Please put either “CCPA Request to Know” or “CCPA Request to Delete” in the subject heading of your email, as applicable. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to honor these requests whether or not you would qualify as a California consumer under the CCPA.

If and to the extent Bryj is considered a covered business under the CCPA, we will confirm receipt of your request within 10 days along with a description of what steps we will take to verify and respond to your request. We must provide the requested information or delete your personal information within 45 days of receipt of your request but we can use up to an additional 45 days provided that we notify you that the additional time is needed.   

When contacting us, we may ask you to provide certain, limited personal information, such as your name, email address and/or account login ID and/or password (if applicable), to verify your request and to match with our records and systems. This is also to protect against fraud. We will not retain this personal information or use it for any other purpose. Also please be advised that we only need to search our records and systems for the preceding 12 months. 

Residents of other states may also have similar rights to request information about or delete their personal information.  To inquire about exercising these rights, please contact us at dpo@bryj.ai. California’s “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our Website that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to dpo@bryj.ai.

Nevada Residents

As Bryj does not currently sell data triggering the opt-out requirements, the Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 603A is not applicable as of the Effective Date of this Policy.  If Bryj’s status changes, we will update this Policy as specified in Section 12 (Changes to this Policy) below. 

12.  Changes to this Privacy Policy

Bryj reserves the right to make changes to this Policy at any time, for example to take into account (i) new ways to collect personal information, (ii) changes in our product or service offerings, (iii) changes in the way we process or use such personal information, and (iv)  compliance with applicable data protection laws. 

We encourage you to check this Policy regularly to keep up to date with any changes. However, in case of any major change to our Policy, you will be notified by email or when visiting the Website.
