When you as a Host have a confirmed contract, certain information is shared with the Guest (and the additional Guests they invite, if applicable) to coordinate the contract, such as your profile, full name, phone number, and Listing address.
• When you as a Host invite another Member to host with you, you authorize that person to access and update your information and Member Content, including but not limited to certain information like your full name, phone number, Listing address, calendar, Listing information, Listing photos, and email address.
• When you as a Guest invite additional Guests to a contract, your full name, contract dates, Host name, Listing details, the Listing address, and other related information will be shared with each additional Guest.

You are responsible for keeping your personal information up to date.
6.2 Data Access and Portability. In some jurisdictions, applicable law may entitle you to request certain copies of your personal information or information about how we handle your personal information, request copies of personal information that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and/or request that we transmit this information to another service provider (where technically feasible).
6.3 Data Erasure. In certain jurisdictions, you can request that your personal information be deleted. Please note that if you request the erasure of your personal information:
• You may request deletion of your account at any time through the Settings > Account menu in the Znugle app, or you can send an account deletion request by contacting Znugle through the Get Help > Znugle Support menu in the Znugle app, or through Znugle’s website here.
• We may retain your personal information as necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as prevention of money laundering, fraud detection and prevention, and enhancing safety. For example, if we suspend a Znugle Account for fraud or safety reasons, we may retain information from that Znugle Account to prevent that Member from opening a new Znugle Account in the future.
• We may retain and use your personal information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations. For example, Znugle and Znugle Payments may keep information for tax, legal reporting and auditing obligations.
• Information you have shared with others (e.g., Reviews, forum postings) will continue to be publicly visible on Znugle, even after your Znugle Account is cancelled. However, attribution of such information to you will be removed. Some copies of your information (e.g., log records) will remain in our database, but are disassociated from personal identifiers.
• Because we take measures to protect data from accidental or malicious loss and destruction, residual copies of your personal information may not be removed from our backup systems for a limited period of time.
