We may provide you the opportunity

Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that
we transfer to your computer and/or device, to identify a user’s computer/device
and to “remember” things about your visit, such as your preferences or a user
name and password. Information contained in a cookie may be linked to your
personal information, such as your user ID, for purposes such as improving the
quality of our Service, tailoring recommendations to your interests, and making
the Service easier to use. You can disable cookies at any time, although you may
not be able to access or use features of the Service.
We may feature advertisements
served by third parties that deliver cookies to your computer/device so the
content you access and advertisements you see can be tracked. Since the
third party advertising companies associate your computer/device with a number,
they will be able to recognize your computer/device each time they send you an
advertisement. These advertisers may use information about your visits to our
Service and third party sites and applications in order to measure advertisement
performance and to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest
to you. This Policy does not apply to, and we are not responsible for the data
collection practices of these third party advertisers, and we encourage you to
check their privacy policies to learn more about their use of cookies and other
technology.

We use mobile analytics software
to allow us to better understand the functionality of our Mobile Software on
your device. This software may record information such as how often you use the
application, the events that occur within the application, aggregated usage,
performance data, and where the application was downloaded from. We do not link
the information we store within the analytics software to any personal
information you submit within the mobile application.
Third Party Services
Our services may contain third
party tracking tools from our service providers, examples of which include
Google Analytics. Such third parties may use cookies, APIs, and SDKs in our
services to enable them to collect and analyse user
information on our behalf. The third parties may have access to information such
as your device identifier, MAC address, IMEI, locale (specific location where a
given language is spoken), geo-location information, and IP address for the
purpose of providing their services under their respective privacy policies. Our
privacy policy does not cover the use of tracking tools from third parties.
We do not have access or control over these third parties.

Security
Korins takes reasonable measures

efforts to store the information collected on the Service in a secure operating
environment that is not available to the public, we cannot guarantee the
absolute security of that information during its transmission or its storage on
our systems. Further, while we attempt to ensure the integrity and

measures will prevent third-party “hackers” from illegally obtaining access to
this information. We do not warrant or represent that your information
will be protected against, loss, misuse, or alteration by third parties. No
method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is
100% secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute
security.
