Privacy Policy

Ningbo Jus Internet Technology Co., Ltd. ("Jus" or "Company" or "we" or "us" or "our" or other similar pronouns) takes your ("you" or "user" or other similar pronouns) privacy matters very seriously. The Policy details how we receive, collect and use information in connection with our website (the "Site") and JusTalk software ("JusTalk" or the "Software") (All of the foregoing, collectively, are named "Services").

Privacy Principles

Jus has two fundamental principles when it comes to personal information:

1.   We don't sell your personal information.

2.   We only store the personal information that we need to operate our Service so you can communicate with the people you choose.

This Policy applies to anyone who accesses the Service. By visiting the Website and/or using the Apps or Service, you acknowledge that the collection, use, and sharing of your information will take place as described in this Policy.

So we are clear about the terminology we are using, when we use the phrase "Personal Information" in this Privacy Policy, we mean information that is capable of being associated with or could reasonably be linked with you, such as your name, email, or mobile number.

Collection of Information

First of all, we want you to be assured that we do not read or listen to the content of your messages and/or calls made privately via JusTalk and we do not store those messages once they have been delivered to their destination (which on average takes less than one second). If for some reason, the message, wasn't delivered to its destination within up to 15 days, it will be deleted from our servers. We also offer end-to-end encryption for our Services, which is on by default, when you and the people with whom you message use our app. End-to-end encryption means that your messages are encrypted to protect against us and third parties from reading them.

When you install JusTalk and log in, you will be asked to allow us to access your mobile device's address book. Your and your contacts' JusTalk accounts will be stored on our server for identification purpose. We will encrypt your contact information irreversibly. Only the encrypted information will be collected. When you use JusTalk, we may access, collect, use and share technical data and related information, including but not limited to:

(a) Information that requires your permission: phonebook, contacts, device location information, microphone, camera;

(b) Caller and callee's personally identifiable information (including your name, profile page, date of birth), IP addresses, begin time, call duration, your device name, system version, packet loss rate, codecs, RTT (Round-Trip Time), jitter, render FPS (frames per second), packet length and maximum resolution, to serve you better and facilitate the provision of software updates, product support and other services to you (if any) related to the software;

(c) JusTalk collects device location information only when you share location with your contacts. JusTalk guarantees that any irrelevant information will not be collected when your device uses location services;

(d) If you log in to JusTalk using a third party social account, JusTalk will request your personal information from the associated third party. This information is collected so that you can get your JusTalk account back if you forget password.

The Application also automatically collected information using the TrueDepth API provided by Apple. The information is depth data and segment foreground from background. The only use of this information is to provide a valuable user feature that replace video calling background with user-selected background. None of the information collected by the TrueDepth API ever leaves the user's device.

JusTalk uses SMSSDK provided by MobTech to implement the SMS verification function.

JusTalk does not use your personal information for ad targeting. JusTalk only access, collects, stores and uses the personal information it needs to operate the service.

If other users already have your telephone number or other information that is able to identify you, we may show them your publicly visible JusTalk Account information, such as your nickname. This helps people identify visual telephone calls coming from you, for example.

You can also request to remove content from specific JusTalk services according to applicable laws, including deleting your entire JusTalk account and all the data in the account, such as permanently deleting your contacts, memories, call records, message records and other data. The content cannot be recovered after deleting.

JusTalk will not initiatively share or transfer your personal information to third parties now. JusTalk will also not actively obtain your personal information from a third party. If there is an exception or you need us to share or transfer your personal information to third parties, we will directly ask for your express consent or confirm that third parties have obtained your express consent. We will also conduct risk assessment about the behavior of offering information to third parties. If there is a requirement to obtain your personal information indirectly from a third party for future business development purposes, we will clarify with you the source, type and scope of such personal information. For example, if the processing of personal information for business necessity of JusTalk is beyond the scope of what you originally agreed to provide to a third party, we will obtain your prior express consent before processing your personal information; furthermore, we will strictly abide by the relevant laws and regulations and require that the third party guarantees the legitimacy of the information provided.
