3. Your California Privacy Rights.

Under California Civil Code Section 1798.83, California residents who use our Site or HelpChat Software may request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for direct marketing purposes.

4. Data Security.

We implement measures designed to protect your personal information from accidental loss or unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure. However, the safety and security of your information also depends on you. We urge you to protect your user information and password and to be careful about giving out information in public areas of the Site or HelpChat Software, which may be viewed by other users of the Site or HelpChat Software.

**Since we, HelpChat, Inc., do not collect any personal information from any user, all data is stored locally on your server.** Unfortunately, transmitting information via the internet and mobile platforms is not completely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of your personal information when transmitted through our Site or HelpChat Software. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk, and we are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures we provide.

If you are visiting from the European Union or other regions with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from U.S. law, including those whose privacy laws may be more restrictive than U.S. law, please note that you are **not** transferring your personal data to the United States to us because **we do not collect it from any user**.
