Amani Privacy Policy<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Last Updated: 30 April 2024<\/p>\n

Contact us<\/a><\/p>\n

At Amani, we respect the privacy of our users. Our goal is to help our clients quickly and securely verify their users so they can access services smoothly. When we check identities or provide authentication services, protecting your privacy is our top priority.<\/span><\/p>\n

Amani collects, uses, and discloses individual users\u2019 information <\/span>only<\/span><\/i> as directed by these third parties and, accordingly, Amani is a mere processor of user information with respect to the Services and not a controller.\u00a0 Further, some features of the Services may be disabled or altered by the data controller, or the controller may require Amani to collect, use, disclose, or otherwise process data in ways that differ from those described below. Thus, to fully understand how your information will be handled when you use the Services, you must review not just this Policy, but also the privacy policy of the third party with whom you are dealing directly (the \u201cThird-Party Data Controller\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n

We might update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make big changes, we’ll let our clients know so they can update their policies and inform their users.<\/span><\/p>\n

Notwithstanding the above, Amani may process certain individual users\u2019 information in anonymised form for its own purposes. Amani is headquartered in the United Arab Emirates, Innovation Hub, Dubai International Financial Centre<\/span><\/p>\n

What personal and other information Amani collects about you?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Amani collects \u201cpersonal information\u201d about users of the Services. \u201cPersonal information\u201d is information such as a name, email address, or identification card image, which refers to an identified or identifiable person. Amani processes personal information on behalf of the Third-Party Data Controller. For its own purposes, Amani processes only anonymised information. \u201cAnonymised information\u201d is information which does not relate to an identified or identifiable person or is rendered anonymous in such a manner that the person is no longer identifiable. If you are in the EEA or UK, the Third-Party Data Controller is responsible for identifying a legal basis which permits your personal information to be used for the purposes described below; you should review their privacy policy for further details.<\/span><\/p>\n
