1. Collecting information

A Consultant could be a user of the Service, or a company (as described in the Terms of Service).

  • Information You Provide for Us

    You may share information about yourself with us anytime you use the Service. Your name and contact information may be included in the information, as well as financial information to make or receive payment for services obtained through the Hotshots platform. The service will collect data connected to your usage of the service, including information about your contacts or friends, and then we will collect this aggregate data along with contact information for you to include your contacts or friends in an existing messaging room. Additionally, we may receive information regarding the company’s consultants.

    • Information about yourself

      Information we request or otherwise collect that can be used to identify you as a specific individual (such as your name or email address) and that may be used to contact or identify you when you use the Service (whether as a Consultant or Company) (“Personal Information”). This information, personal data, is all that’s needed to identify you.

    • Information on Payment

      Also, we collect some payment information, such as credit card or other bank account information, and billing address when you use the Service to make or receive payments.

    • Verification of Identity

      We may seek documentation to verify your Personal Information, such as a copy of your government-issued identification or photo or a billing statement. Facial recognition and other technologies may be used to verify your identity and to detect fraud, identity theft, or other misuse of your account. Sometimes, we could ask for a copy of your government-issued ID in order to confirm this information. You may have to retake an image of your face and submit it with your government-issued identification at some point if you become a Hotshot. This information is only used for identity verification, platform security, and integrity.

    • Information on the Target Audience

      The service is meant for people who are 18 and older. Personal Information about anyone younger than the age of 18 is not collected knowingly. When we learn about a person under the age of 18, we shall remove their Personal Information from our archive. Please contact us with any questions or concerns regarding your child’s Personal Information.

    • Non-Personally Identifiable Information

      Other information, such as zip codes, demographic data, and general project-related data (“Non-Identifying Information”) may be collected. Information about our Hotshots and users who have registered, but have not yet completed their jobs (“unregistered Hotshots”) may be aggregated. While some personal information (such email addresses) can be regarded non-identifying, referred to as “hashed information” in this privacy policy, in some situations, it can be considered personal information as well. In this case, the hash function is used to turn information into code. Your actions and interests are linked, even if you aren’t identified directly.

    • Information that is both personal and non-identifiable

      Personal and non-identifying information may be combined in such a way that enables you to be recognized. It’s also important to understand that the same pieces of information become Non-Identifying Information when viewed in isolation or used together with solely non-identifying information, such as your viewing habits. Some information, even though it doesn’t identify you personally, is nonetheless treated as Personal Information when it is combined with other non-identifying information.

    • Third Party Personal Information

      We gather the following information from you when you offer it for the purpose of adding your contacts to a messaging room: your first name, last name, and email address.

      If we do not obtain information from you, then we will not be able to provide our Service to you. Please contact us using the information below if you have any questions regarding whether providing information is mandatory and the repercussions for failing to do so.

  • Information Obtained from Outside Sources

    From Third parties, we may obtain information about you. Such combined information will be treated as described in this Privacy Policy even if you supply it to us through the Service.

    We may obtain information about you from third parties. An excellent example of how this principle is put into practice is how we might combine such information with that which we acquire as part of a co-marketing agreement or at your request (such as if you choose to sign in with a third-party service). While these will be treated as outlined in this Privacy Policy, the results will be treated as summarized in this document.

  • Automatically Collected Information

    Using our Service is similar to obtaining technical information from other web companies. These technologies are used to help us better understand how you use the Service so that we can keep you logged in, provide you with targeted adverts, and fine-tune our service functionalities.

    The following types of third-party services, including analytics and third-party content providers, are integral to the Service, and all of these third-party services may automatically collect certain information from you when you use or access the Service: This information may include, among other things, your browser information and operating system, as well as the URL or advertisement that referred you to the Service, and search keywords you entered into a search engine that led you to the Service. This log information that we collect automatically may be used in combination with information we collect about you to improve our marketing, analytics, website performance, and services.

    In addition to tracking internet protocol (“IP”) addresses and unique device identifiers (“Device Identifier”) used to access the service, we also collect IP addresses and Device Identifiers from the various devices (computers, mobile phones, tablets, etc.) used to access the service. Our services employ Device Identifiers to identify your devices. Additionally, some mobile service providers or our third party providers may be able to give information on the actual location of the device used to access the Service.

    In order to enhance your experience, we utilize cookies and related technologies. Data collection technology that is used by Hotshot Users could comprise the following:

    • Cookies

      These are the usual cookies we and our marketing partners, affiliates, analytics, and service providers utilize. A cookie is a little data file that is transferred to your hard drive so that we can maintain record of your visit. In almost all cases, we use cookies that are long-lasting and use session IDs. Once cookies are installed, they remain on your device unless you delete them (such as to save your registration ID and password for future logins to the Service and to track your compliance with the Hotshots terms of Service). Session ID cookies expire when the session ends (for instance, to enable certain features of the Service, to better understand how Hotshots Users interact with the Service and to monitor aggregate usage by Hotshots Users and web traffic routing on the Service).

    • Web Beacons

      We may employ web beacons and/or tracking tags with our marketing partners, affiliates, analytics, and service providers to help us keep an eye on our services and deliver relevant advertising to you. Small pictures included in web pages called web beacons are normally invisible to the user, but they can be used to track the online behavior of internet users. You may also come across web beacons in the websites you browse or in the emails you receive. The utilization of web beacons or similar technologies may be applied for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, measuring how many visitors the Hotshots Service has, monitoring how Hotshots Users travel across the Service, and gauging how many emails were opened.

    • Embedded Scripts

      This technology is used by companies who want to embed scripts within their own websites, as well as by partners, affiliates, analytics, and service providers. In-built scripting code is programs that are meant to collect information about your interaction with the service, such as the links you clicked. Your device downloads the code to your device while you are connected to the Service, and then deactivates or deletes the code when you disconnect.

      We may also use a number of other technologies (such as tags) to gather similar information for security and fraud detection purposes and we may use third parties to provide these services on our behalf.

  • How We Respond To “Do Not Track” Requests

    Do Not Track (DNT) signals have no effect on Hotshots.

    You may want to check your browser settings to see if the “Do Not Track” feature is activated. “Do Not Track” doesn’t have a consensus definition within the business. Despite getting a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser, Hotshots does not alter its procedures.

    Data Processing Agreement under the General Data Protection Regulation

    The DPA’s purpose is to streamline the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) compliance process by stating in writing the Customer’s (as defined in the DPA) data controller or processor status (as defined in the DPA) when handling personal data under European Data Protection Legislation; Hotshots has created a Data Protection Agreement (“DPA”) to facilitate this goal (acting as a data processor or subprocessor, as applicable).

    The Data Processing Agreement applies to your status as a Customer unless otherwise agreed to in writing by you and Hotshots.

  • Work Journals and Work Views

    We record the work done by a consultant on a company’s project. We record this data, including the collection of data that has occurred automatically. We shall provide Work Diaries to the applicable company and corporate representative if a Consultant implements Work Diaries. We advise Consultants of what information we’re capturing and ask for their permission to use it in the Work Diary.

    Collecting project information when a Consultant uses the Service is an additional feature provided by a Consultant Consultant. Work Diary is commonly recognized as this feature. In addition to data the consultant supplies, information in a Work Diary includes information such as how many mouseclicks and keystrokes there are and how frequently screenshots are captured (which may include a webcam picture of you if you have enabled this feature in your settings). To utilize Work Diaries, you must first download and install the software that is needed from this location.

  • Profiles of Users

    It is possible for consultants to build a profile where their personal and business information is exposed to the public. Also, organizations can build profile pages.

    In the event you’re given the opportunity to create a profile, which includes information about you, including your Personal Information, work samples, results from tests you’ve taken, and information on the work you have done via the Service and outside of the Service, you will be able to use this to construct your Profile. Profile information, such as your educational background, can be available to all Hotshots users and the general public, unless you decide to make your Profile private. You are able to update certain information in your Profile, such as your gender, date of birth, location, and personal interests, by updating your account settings. You may also choose who can see certain content you publish to your Profile. In addition to connecting an individual user or company with individual users or firms, an organization may have the option to set up an organization profile. To seek removal of an unlawful profile about you, please contact us at [email protected].

  • Verification Of Identity

    Because we place a premium on trust, we may require additional verification to prove your identity.

    An applicant may be required to provide identification verification before completing registration with the Service, or at any point thereafter. In order to keep our verification process open to other options, we ask that Consultants provide a photo ID along with a government-issued ID in order to verify that the individual in the ID is, in fact, the Consultant. It is possible to record video calls, and also take screenshots during them. There are three main reasons why Identity Verification is used by Hotshot: (1) it is used to enforce our Terms of Service and other agreements, (2) it is used to prevent fraud, and (3) it is used to verify your identity.

  • Messaging

    The service makes it possible for consultants and companies to communicate with one other. For instance, company needs and job ideas from consultants could be addressed. It is also a “data controller” with respect to such communications if you communicate with a Company.

  • Community Discussion Boards

    Public forums or blogs may be available to the whole public. Your contributions will be displayed publicly.

    You may have the chance to participate and submit content publicly in communities such as forums, blogs, and interactive features on Hotshots. You have the option of making contributions or posting content (“User Forum Content”) to the site. To ensure our users are comfortable sharing their creative pursuits on the Service, please be aware that the following information, such as your name and User Forum content, may be publicly published on the Service: As noted in the Hotshots Forum Rules and our Terms of Service, the usage of the Community Forums is subject to those rules and the following guidelines:

    Your Community Forum Content is publicly accessible, and it is possible for people to use it or share it with others. The protection of this Privacy Policy will not apply if you choose to voluntarily share your Personal Information or include it in your User Forum Content.

    If you would like to have your personal information removed from our blogs or community forum, please contact us at the following email address: [email protected] While we’re able to erase your Personal Information from time to time, in some circumstances we may not be able to, and we will let you know if this is the case and why.

  • Testimonials

    We showcase satisfied clients’ personal testimonials of service as well as other recommendations on our Service page. As long as you agree, we can display your testimonies and your name alongside. Please email us if you would want to amend or delete your testimonial.

  • Job Postings Using the Service

    If you choose to submit a work listing via the Service as a Company, your work listing’s contents will be publicly accessible unless you decide to make it private by configuring your site’s settings. For the company, the list of work to be done includes information such as budget, location, and previous work orders that were given by the Company, as well as information about the names of other consultants who are working on behalf of the Company, Company feedback and ratings, and how the project is progressing.

  • Feedback

    We use comments from Hotshot Users to glean information about our other customers. Public feedback on your experiences using the Hotshot service or that others provide about you is available by all on the Hotshot service. Feedback may be removed from the Service on rare instances, such as due to our Terms of Service, such as the Terms of Use. No private feedback will be made publicly available via the Service, even if you provide it to other Hotshots Users. We collect user input, too. To reply to your enquiries, improve the Service, and create new goods and services, we use this information.

  • Email Referral Program and Email to Friends

    You can share project postings with friends via email with Hotshots. Users can use the Service to contact and tell others about jobs and requests for services, as well as to receive emails about new jobs and requests for services. It is only OK to share the information of trusted Hotshots contacts, with those who know and consent to it. You have the option of either receiving the desired posting by using your friend’s email address, or to receive the message by yourself, if you use your own email address. Only the data about our referral program’s recipients are stored, and this is done solely for the purpose of delivering the one-time email and monitoring the performance of our referral program. To ask us to delete this information from our database, your buddy may contact us at [email protected].

  • Service for Social Networking

    If you have not already registered on our site, you may register directly or through a social networking website. What we collect depends on your privacy settings with that social networking provider. It’s also possible to “like” or share information via social networking platforms such as Facebook.

    you may register with the Service directly or through a third party social networking service by signing onto your account on our Service (e.g., Facebook, and Other third party services that let you sign in using your existing credentials with those services). We will utilize the Personal Information you supplied to the SNS (name, email address, gender, etc.) to create your account. As noted above, depending on the privacy settings that you set with the SNS and the permissions you provide to us in connection with linking your account with the Service to your account with an SNS, the information we collect from and through the SNS may be different. Personal Information we acquire through our Service is not passed to the SNS, nor is Hotshots liable for it.

    It may also allow you to like or share material on a third-party SNS such as a social network. Actions that you take with regard to material on our Service, including “liking” or sharing it, or otherwise sharing information from or via our Service with a third party, are governed by our Terms of Service. The third party may be able to access information about you and your use of our Service (and we may have access to information about you from the third party). This feature may gather your IP address, and may store it in order to provide you with personalized content. Because of the third-party settings you use with an SNS or similar features, the privacy policies of those third parties apply to your dealings with them.

    You certify that you are the proper user of your SNS account and that you are authorized to use that account for the purposes stated in this agreement without violating any of the terms and conditions that govern the SNS, and without making Hotshots liable for any fees or imposing any usage limitations on Hotshots. You can prevent your Hotshots account from having any connection to your SNS account by simply navigating to the “Settings” area inside our Service. Due to the exclusive nature of your agreement with any SNS, please be aware that your relationship with any SNS is totally dependent on the terms and conditions of your agreement with such SNS. When your SNS account is deleted, all of the functions assigned to you through a Hotshots account-to-SNS link will also be removed.
