We may disclose your personal data to carry out our policies where we are permitted or required to do so as applicable by law. Such as in response to a request by law enforcement or governmental authority, in connection with actual or proposed litigation, or to protect our property, people, and other rights or interests.

If substantially all of our assets are sold or merged with another company, we will immediately notify you of the transaction, and the acquiring entity shall be given access to your personal information. If we sell only a part of our business, the acquiring entity may still have access to your personal information without your consent and we will send you a notice regarding the sale.

How Do We Protect Your Personal Information?

We keep the information we collect stored in our systems protected from unauthorized access and misuse. Our systems are configured with data encryption, as well as scrambling technologies and firewalls constructed to industry standards. Your personal information may only be accessed by authorized persons within our organizations, or our third-party suppliers, who require the access to carry out the uses indicated in this privacy policy. We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to safeguard against unauthorized or illegal processing of your personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, your personal data. While no system is completely secure, we believe the measures executed by our site lessen your vulnerability and susceptibility to security problems to a level suitable to the type of data involved. We have security measures in place to protect our user database and access to this database is internally restricted.

Use Of Your Photographs and Videos

There may be photographers and/or videographers hired by BookMyHouseParty.co to record and capture videos and photographs of all the parties present and/or attending and/or participating in house parties/events aggregated or organized by BookMyHouseParty.co. ‘Parties present’ refers to users who have signed up with BookMyHouseParty.co and booked the house party or event for themselves and the guests accompanying them, i.e., attendees whose entry/ticket is booked by the primary attendee through means of payment, a BookMyHouseParty ambassador, or any person present during/at the event who is invited by the host, in addition to any executives representing any brands associated with the house party/event or any individual present at the house party/event.

If you are participating in a house party/event through any of the mediums or methods demonstrated above, you agree to and grant us the following permissions:

• Use of your photographs and videos captured/recorded during these house parties/events for the purpose of posting/uploading on the website and all social media accounts owned by BookMyHouseParty.co.

• Promoting your photographs and videos on the website, BookMyHouseParty.co, and all social media accounts owned by BookMyHouseParty.co, organically as well as with targeted paid advertisement campaigns, not limiting its reach to any particular number of users of social media and social networking companies.

• Using your photographs and videos on marketing materials like fliers, standees, boards, presentations, etc., for offline marketing purposes.

• Sharing it with the Hosts, under the given terms and conditions of the host agreement, limiting them to use it on their social media accounts both personal and/or business, for the sole purpose of promoting the house party/event hosted/organized by them.

All the photographs and videos captured and recorded at the house parties/events, aggregated or organized by BookMyHouseParty.co are the sole property of BookMyHouseParty.co. We use these photographs and videos to expand our network and to invite people to be a part of our growing community.

If you are hesitant about your privacy and do not wish to be captured or recorded at the house parties or events aggregated or organized by BookMyHouseParty.co, you can request the photographers and the videographers present at the venue not to do so. Simultaneously, you can also write to us at info@BookMyHouseParty.co and request us to not use your photographs and/or videos on our website and in all or any of our social media accounts. It is highly recommended that you request the photographer and/or videographer present at the house party aggregated or organized by BookMyHouseParty.co not to capture or record your footage if it makes you uncomfortable, as they may not always be hired by BookMyHouseParty.co. They may also be present on the request of the host (this refers to the host of the event or owner/organizer of the venue). Keep in mind that anyone present at our parties that may be hired by the host would do so under mutual understanding amongst both parties (host and the photographers and/or videographers). In such cases, the host should take your consent for capturing and recording videos and photographs, and BookMyHouseParty.co will not be responsible for the photographs and videos captured at the event. BookMyHouseParty hosts must adhere to the host agreement, which states that they must agree not to misuse any content generated at and through the event hosted and/or organized at their home and/or venue, which may be owned, rented, or leased. However, it is advised to request the host or the photographers/videographers not to capture or record your photographs and videos for foreign uses and purposes.

Phishing
