This information you provide is used, for example, to process your transactions, to create and share aggregate reports about these transactions, and for any risk management functions relating to transactions. If you purchase a subscription Service, your transaction may be conducted through our vendors and suppliers. Vendors and suppliers engaged by Conscious may have their use of your Personal Information limited by this Privacy Policy, contractual restrictions, and applicable law. Kindara (through its vendors or suppliers) may limit its provision of services to particular jurisdictions and as permitted by applicable law.

Also, Kindara may post a notice on the Website or the App if a security breach occurs. If this happens, you will need a web browser or mobile device enabling you to view the Service. Kindara may also send an email to you at the email address you have provided to us in these circumstances. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive notice of a security breach in writing.
To receive free written notice of a security breach (or to withdraw your consent from receiving electronic notice) you must notify us at team@kindara.com.
