If the partner's use of information no longer complies with the principle of lawfulness, they shall cease using your personal information or obtain a corresponding lawful basis before further use.

(2) Principle of Legitimacy and Data Minimization: Data use must have a legitimate purpose and be limited to what is necessary to achieve that purpose.

We will conduct strict security monitoring on software development kits (SDKs) and application programming interfaces (APIs) used by our partners to obtain information, in order to protect data security.

(4) When using the "Conversation Sharing" function, if you voluntarily choose to publicly post conversation content on public networks, such content may be at risk of being obtained by third parties through technical means such as web crawlers. We have adopted industry-standard anti-crawling mechanisms (Robots Protocol) to make commercially reasonable efforts to prevent third parties from scraping publicly shared content. However, limited by common technical constraints in the industry, such risks cannot be completely eliminated. Therefore, we recommend that when using this function: (1) avoid inputting or sharing your or others' personal information, especially sensitive personal information; (2) if you indeed need to input or share others' personal information, please obtain their explicit authorization in advance; (3) before publicly posting relevant conversations on public networks, carefully examine whether there is any information you do not wish third parties to know.
