A note about accuracy:
Services provided such as using the chat function generate responses by reading a user's request and, in response, predicting the words most likely to appear next. In some cases, the words most likely to appear next may not be the most factually accurate. For this reason, you should not rely on the factual accuracy of output from our models. If you notice that the output contains factually inaccurate information about you and you would like to request a correction or removal of the information, you can submit these requests to our AI provider, through privacy.openai.com(opens in a new window) or to dsar@openai.com, and we will consider your request based on applicable law and the technical capabilities of our models.
Grow My BnB processes your Personal Data for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy on servers located in various jurisdictions, including processing and storing your Personal Data in our hosting provider Vercel's servers in the United States. While data protection law varies by country, we apply the protections described in this policy to your Personal Data regardless of where it is processed, and only transfer that data pursuant to legally valid transfer mechanisms.
6. Children
Our Services are not directed to, or intended for, children under 13. We do not knowingly collect Personal Data from children under 13. If you have reason to believe that a child under 13 has provided Personal Data to Grow My BnB through the Services, please email us at hello@growmybnb.pro. We will investigate any notification and, if appropriate, delete the Personal Data from our systems. Users under 18 must have permission from their parent or guardian to use our Services.
7. Security
We implement commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and organisational measures designed to protect Personal Data from loss, misuse, and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no Internet or email transmission is ever fully secure or error free. Therefore, you should take special care in deciding what information you provide to the Services. In addition, we are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Service, or third-party websites.
