Privacy

Effective Date: 8/23/2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to GNetwork. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website and mobile application.

2. Information We Collect

a. Personal Information:

Registration: When you register for an account, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and possibly your payment information.
Event Creation: Brands creating events might need to provide additional details like event specifics, contact information, and possibly business registration numbers.
User Content: Messages or images you share via our messaging system.
Imported Phone Contacts: If you use the My Contacts Import screen in the GNetwork mobile app, we collect only the contacts you explicitly select after in-app consent, limited to name, email, and phone. See Section 3 below.

b. Non-Personal Information:

Usage Data: We log how you interact with our services, including pages visited, features used, and the time spent on our platform.
Device Information: Data about the device you use, such as device type, operating system, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information.

3. Imported Phone Contacts

This section describes how GNetwork handles device address-book data from the GNetwork mobile app. We do not access your contacts unless you start an import yourself.

Contacts note: only user-selected contacts are uploaded, only after explicit in-app consent recorded server-side. Fields imported: name, email, phone.

a. When this happens

The GNetwork mobile app may access your device contacts only if you choose Import From Phone on the My Contacts Import screen. We do not read your address book in the background, and we do not automatically sync your full contact list.

b. Explicit in-app consent

Before any contact data is read from your device or uploaded to our servers, you must complete the in-app consent step on the My Contacts Import screen. That includes reviewing the disclosure, checking the consent box, and tapping Agree & Choose Contacts. We record that consent on our servers (consent version, platform, app version, and timestamp) before upload. The operating system’s Contacts permission prompt is shown only after that in-app consent is given.

c. What is uploaded

After consent, you review importable contacts on your device and choose which ones to import. Only the contacts you keep selected are uploaded and saved. We store only:

Name (first name and last name)
Email address
Phone number

We do not import notes, postal addresses, birthdays, photos, company names, social profiles, or other address-book metadata.

d. How imported contacts are used

Imported contacts are saved to your private My Contacts list on your GNetwork account. You may use them in your own Products and Event marketing systems — for example, inviting selected contacts to your products or events and managing audience lists. GNetwork does not sell imported contacts and does not use them to market GNetwork’s own services to those people.

e. Control and deletion

You can delete any imported contact from My Contacts at any time. You can also request deletion of your account and associated data as described in this policy and our Data Retention & Deletion Policy.

4. How We Use Your Information

Service Provision: To facilitate event ticketing, manage messages between members, and provide customer support.
Your Products & Event marketing: If you import contacts, to power your private My Contacts list and the Products and Event marketing tools on your account (only for the contacts you chose to import).
Communication: For sending updates, newsletters, or promotional materials (with your consent where required by law).
Analytics: To understand usage patterns and improve our services.
Legal Compliance: To comply with legal obligations or protect our rights.

5. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. However, we may share it with:

Service Providers: For example, payment processors, data analytics companies, or event partners.
Legal Reasons: If required by law or to protect our or others’ rights, safety, or property.
Business Transfers: In connection with any merger, sale of company assets, or acquisition.

Imported phone contacts stay on the importing user’s account. We do not share them with other members, and we do not sell them.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal information as long as necessary to provide you with our services or for other essential purposes like complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements. Imported contacts remain in your My Contacts list until you delete them or request account deletion.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:

Access or update your information.
Request deletion of your data.
Opt out of marketing communications.
Object to processing of your data.

Please contact us here to exercise these rights.

8. Security

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, hence we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Children’s Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 13 (or other applicable age threshold). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under this age.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the “Effective Date” at the top.
