GENERAL
This Website with the URL of www.iconnectgroup.com (“Website/Site”) is operated by I-Connect LC “We/Our/Us”). We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. We do collect your personal information and process your personal data in accordance with the IT Act, 2000 (21 of 2000) and other national and state laws which relate the processing of personal data. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding yourpersonal data. We collect your personal information in order to provide and continually improve our products and services.
Our privacy policy is subject to change at any time without notice. If you want to make sure that you are up to date with the latest changes, we advise you to frequently visit this page.

What User Data We Collect
When you visit the website, we may collect the following data:
- Your IP address.
- Your contact information and email address.
- Other information such as interests and preferences.
- Data profile regarding your online behavior on our website.
- OAuth-based Sign-in linking of your social media account (Google/Facebook)
OAuth-based Sign-in linking of your social media account
Neither we request access to any of your personal/sensitive data on Social Media profile, nor we store your social media information. The OAuth-based Sign-in linking adds OAuth-based account linking for your social media account (Google/Facebook).
This linking type begins with Sign-In through your social media account, which allows you to check if your profile information exists in our system. If your profile information isn’t found in our system, a standard OAuth flow begins. You can also choose to create a new account with your Google/Facebook profile information and initiate the ‘new user registration’ workflow. In any of the cases, you will authenticate using your social media account interface. Google/Faceboo calls our service APIs, and attaches the access token with each request. Our service verifies that the access token grants Google/Facebook authorization to access the API and then completes the API call. The access token is an encrypted key which we store in our database for up to 30 days. No additional user profile data flows from your social media account to our website.
After a user signs in for the first time, a new user account is created and linked to the credentials—that is, the user name and password, phone number, or auth provider information—the user signed in with. This new account can be used to identify a user across every business service hosted on our website that the user has access to, regardless of how the user signs in.
