Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to www.hitechinv.com (“HiTech Investments”). We highly value your
privacy and are dedicated to safeguarding your personal information. This Privacy
Policy governs your access to and use of this Website. By accessing or utilizing our
Website, you agree to the terms outlined in this Privacy Policy.

2. Website Visitors

Similar to most website operators, we collect non-personally identifying information
typically made available by web browsers and servers. This includes browser type,
language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request.
Periodically, we may release non-personally identifying information in aggregate
form, such as publishing a report on Website usage trends or revealing viewing
statistics on streaming videos.
We may also gather potentially personally-identifying information like Internet
Protocol (IP) addresses. However, we do not use this information to identify our
visitors and only disclose it under the same circumstances that we use and disclose
personally-identifying information, as detailed below.

3. Collection of Personal Information

Certain visitors to the Website choose to interact with the Website in ways that
necessitate the collection of personal information. The quantity and type of
information collected depend on the nature of the interaction. For instance, we ask
visitors who use our forums to provide a username and email address. We collect
such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of
the visitor’s interaction with the Website. Visitors can always refuse to supply
personal information, with the understanding that certain Website features may not
function properly without it.

4. Use and Protection of Personal Information

We disclose potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information
only to those employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (a) need to
know that information to process it on our behalf or to provide services available on
the Website, and (b) have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of these
employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations may be located outside your
home country; by using the Website, you consent to the transfer of such information
to them.
We do not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying
information. Besides our employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations as
described above, we disclose potentially personally-identifying and
personally-identifying information only when required by law, or when we believe in
good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect our property or rights,
third parties, or the public at large.

5. Communications

By visiting the Website, you consent to occasionally receive communications from
us, whether by Mail and/or email, to inform you about new features, solicit your
feedback, provide you with valuable marketing information, or otherwise keep you
updated about the Website and its services. We primarily use our blog for this type of
communication, so we expect to keep direct communications to a minimum. You
have the right to opt out of receiving these types of communications by notifying us
of your request to no longer receive such communications. This can be done by
clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email or, if the communication is
sent via U.S. Mail, by emailing us via the contact page or sending a written request
to us at [Bunglow 5, Atur Hills Undri, Pune, Maharashtra, 411060]. Regarding other
requests you may send us (for example, via a support email or feedback
mechanism), we reserve the right to publish them to help clarify or respond to your
request or to support other users. We make reasonable efforts to protect against
unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of potentially personally
identifying and personal information.
