DIGHU Media Inc. Privacy Policy
Date of last revision: June, 2010.
DIGHU PURPOSE:
Dighu Manifesto
When is the
last time you used the digital world to do something good for others?
We love our social media and it is changing how we communicate, but
are we really using it to its full potential?
Each of us
is a person, made up of intellect and will, of conscience and heart.
Through our lives experiences we write our own history, the history
of our lives and souls, which are our own, unique and unrepeatable.
This personal history is shaped through the relationships and encounters
linking one person to others. Social media transcends these means!
Our problem
and thus the problem that our families, communities, our nations and
our world face is that the digital means of communication, the marvelous
tools for instant connection and sharing, have not been matched with
a proportional development of morals and ethics. Yes, the digital age
is upon us, but at what cost? Is mankind progressing or is he regressing
and degraded in his humanity? Does this progress, which has man
as its author make life on earth more human in all aspects of
livingthe answer is NO!
Let's raise
the digital world to its full potential; lets unite in uplifting and
sharing our humanity through digital means. Lets embrace social media
for connection and shared meaning, not just personal recognition. Use
Dighu as the technology tool to accomplish this goal. Challenge yourself
daily to a Daily Dighu, a means for your daily contribution to humanity.
Dighu use technology for humanity?what a great idea!
We are the
lovers of humanity, and of all that is good in technology, and this
is our manifesto, the Dighu manifesto. With Dighu we can make a difference
and change the world, through one daily act of digital humanity. Take
a moment every day to look beyond yourself and touch others and so discover
true meaning in giving and the purpose and joy that it brings to all
that we do. Join the DIGHU revival at www.dighu.com; we will embrace digital technology
to build a better world. Dighu reach out to touch and love someone
today??
Did You Dighu?
We want to earn your trust by being transparent about how DIGHU works.
This policy contains eight sections:
Introduction
Questions. If you have any questions or concerns about our privacy
policy, contact our Privacy Officer Angela at: Privacy@Dighu.com.
This privacy policy covers the website www.dighu.com and covers only information
that is collected through this Web site, and does not cover other information.
If you have any complaints about our policy or practices please let
us know thru our Privacy Officer.
Scope. This privacy policy covers all of DIGHU. By using or accessing
DIGHU, you agree to our privacy practices outlined in this document.
No information from children under age 13. If you are under age
13, please do not attempt to register for DIGHU or provide any personal
information about yourself to us. If we learn that we have collected
personal information from a child under age 13, we will delete that
information as quickly as possible.

2. Information We Receive
Information you provide to us:
Personal information. When you sign up for DIGHU you provide
us with your name, email and age. It is your choice whether
to post and share any other personal information within the DIGHU site.
Content. One of the primary reasons people use DIGHU is to "seek
to make a difference and change the world through one daily act of digital
humanity" and share this information with others. It your choice
what information you choose to share.
Information we collect when you interact with DIGHU:
Site activity information. We keep track of the actions you take
on DIGHU. In some cases you are taking an action when you provide information
or content to us.
Access Device and Browser Information. When you access DIGHU
from a computer, mobile phone, or other device, we may collect information
from that device about your browser type, location, and IP address,
as well as the pages you visit.
Cookie Information. We use "cookies" (small pieces
of data we store for an extended period of time on your computer, mobile
phone, or other device) to make DIGHU easier to use, to make our advertising
better, and to protect both you and DIGHU. For example, we use them
to store your login ID (but never your password) to make it easier for
you to login whenever you come back to DIGHU. We also use them to confirm
that you are logged into DIGHU, and to know when you are interacting
with DIGHU. You can remove or block cookies using the settings
in your browser, but in some cases that may impact your ability to use
DIGHU.
Information we receive from third parties:
Information from other websites.
We may institute programs with advertising partners and other websites
in which they share information with us.
We may ask advertisers to tell us how our users responded to the ads
we showed them (and for comparison purposes, how other users who didnt
see the ads acted on their site). This data sharing, commonly known
as conversion tracking, helps us measure our advertising effectiveness
and improve the quality of the advertisements you see.
We may receive information about whether or not youve seen or interacted
with certain ads on other sites in order to measure the effectiveness
of those ads.
If in any of
these cases we receive data that we do not already have, we will anonymize
it within 180 days, meaning we will stop associating the information
with any particular user
3. Information You Share With Third Parties
It is your choice what information you share with third parties.
This includes photos, videos, your profile, blog postings, and music.
You certify that any and all information that you post is posted with
either expressed consent from the copyright owner or that you are the
author and owner and as such, can certify it is original. You
agree, in all respects, to hold DIGHU harmless from any and all alleged
copyright or trade-mark infringements. At all times, the information
posted by you is owned or licensed by you and DIGHU is simply a manager
of your information.
You understand that information might be re-shared or copied by other
users.
Certain types of communications that you send to other users cannot
be removed, such as messages.
If you use an external source to publish information to DIGHU (such
as a mobile application or a Connect site), you should check the privacy
setting for that post, as it is set by that external source.
You should always review the policies of third party applications and
websites to make sure you are comfortable with the ways in which they
use information you share with them. We do not guarantee they will follow
our rules. If you find an application or website that violates our rules,
you should report the violation to our Privacy Officer.
Exporting Information. You (and those you make your information
available to) may use tools like RSS feeds, mobile phone address books,
or copy and paste functions, to capture and export information from
DIGHU, including your information and information about you.
Links. When you click on links on DIGHU you may leave our site.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites, and
we encourage you to read their privacy statements.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to try to provide a safe, efficient,
and customized experience. Here are some of the details on how we do
that:
To manage the service. We use the information we collect to provide
our services and features to you, to measure and improve those services
and features, and to provide you with customer support. We use the information
to prevent potentially illegal activities, and to enforce our Policies.
We also use a variety of technological systems to detect and address
anomalous activity and screen content to prevent abuse such as spam.
These efforts may on occasion result in a temporary or permanent suspension
or termination of some functions for some users. If DIGHU is of
the opinion the information you post is illegal, defamatory, or immoral,
DIGHU will take steps to remove this information without prior notification
to you.
To contact you. We may contact you with service-related announcements
from time to time. You may opt out of all communications except essential
updates.
To serve personalized advertising to you. We dont share your information with advertisers without your consent. (An example of consent would be if you asked us to provide your shipping address to an advertiser to receive a free sample.) We allow advertisers to choose the characteristics of users who will see their advertisements and we may use any of the non-personally identifiable attributes we have collected (including information you may have decided not to show to other users, such as your age or other sensitive personal information or preferences) to select the appropriate audience for those advertisements. Even though we do not share your information with advertisers without your consent, when you click on or otherwise interact with an advertisement there is a possibility that the advertiser may place a cookie in your browser and note that it meets the criteria they selected.
5. How We Share Information
DIGHU is all about sharing your information with others that is consistent
with the DIGHU Manifesto stated at the beginning of this document.
It is your sole determination what information it is that you choose
to share.
To help improve or promote our service. Sometimes we share aggregated
information with third parties to help improve or promote our service.
But we only do so in such a way that no individual user can be identified
or linked to any specific action or information.
To respond to legal requests and prevent harm. We may disclose
information pursuant to subpoenas, court orders, or other requests (including
criminal and civil matters) if we have a good faith belief that the
response is required by law. This may include respecting requests from
jurisdictions outside of Canada where we have a good faith belief
that the response is required by law under the local laws in that jurisdiction,
apply to users from that jurisdiction, and are consistent with generally
accepted international standards. We may also share information when
we have a good faith belief it is necessary to prevent fraud or other
illegal activity, to prevent imminent bodily harm, or to protect ourselves
and you from people violating our Policies and may include sharing information
with other companies, lawyers, courts or other government entities.
6. How You Can View, Change, or Remove Information
Viewing and editing your information. You may change or delete
your information at any time by going to your profile page and visiting the edit profile section.
Information will be updated immediately.
Deleting your account. If you want to stop using your account
you may delete it. When you delete an account, it is removed from the
site but stays in our database. Should you wish to have that database
information deleted, contact our privacy officer and they will do just
that.
Backup copies. Removed and deleted information may persist in
backup copies for up to 90 days, but will not be available to others.
7. How We Protect Information
We do our best to keep your information secure, but we need your help.
Steps we take to keep your information secure. We keep your account
information on a secured server behind a firewall. When you enter sensitive
information (such as credit card numbers and passwords), we encrypt
that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). We also
use automated and social measures to enhance security, such as analyzing
account behavior for fraudulent or otherwise anomalous behavior, may
limit use of site features in response to possible signs of abuse, may
remove inappropriate content or links to illegal content, and may suspend
or disable accounts for violations of our Policies.
Please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We cannot control the actions of other users with whom you share your information. We cannot guarantee that only authorized persons will view your information. We cannot ensure that information you share on DIGHU will not become publicly available. We are not responsible for third party circumvention of any security measures on DIGHU. You can reduce these risks by using common sense security practices such as choosing a strong password, using different passwords for different services, and using up to date antivirus software.
Report Violations. You should report any security violations
to our Privacy Officer.
8. Other Terms
Changes. We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time.
Unless stated otherwise, our current privacy policy applies to all information
that we have about you and your account. If we make changes to this
Privacy Policy we will notify you by publication here.
Please enjoy DIGHU.
