We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on Our Service and store certain information. Tracking technologies used are beacons, tags, and scripts to collect and track information and to improve and analyze our Service. The technologies We use may but not limited include:
Owlindex will retain your data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

The following purposes may be reasons to use personal data:
Owlindex supports massive communities which we have to police against abuse and Terms and Conditions violations. To improve the security of your account, as well as to prevent spam, abuse, and other violations of our Terms and Conditions, we may collect metadata such as your IP address, devices, history of username changes, etc. If collected, this metadata can be kept for 12 months maximum.
To prevent phishing, spam, and other kinds of abuse and violations of Owlindex’s Terms and Conditions, our moderators may check messages and/or Listed Services that were reported to them by their recipients. If a spam report on a message and/or Listed Services you sent is confirmed by our moderators, your account may be limited from contacting strangers – temporarily or permanently. You can send an appeal to our team. In case of more serious violations, your account may be banned. We may also use automated algorithms to analyze messages and/or Listed Services in server chats to stop spam and phishing.
We may also store some aggregated metadata to create Owlindex features that work across all your devices. We may use some aggregated data about how you use Owlindex to build useful features. For example, Owlindex displays the people and/or organization you are more likely to message and/or Services in a box at the top of the screen. To do this, we calculate a rating that shows which people and/or organizations you message and/or use Services frequently.
We don’t use your data for ad targeting or other commercial purposes. Owlindex only stores the information it needs to function as a secure and feature-rich service.
Our Service may contain links to other websites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
Owlindex does not process payments from users/members and instead relies on different payment providers around the world. It is the payment providers that handle and store your credit/debit card details. Neither Owlindex nor the merchants on the platform (bot developers) have access to this information. Although we work with payment providers they are completely independent from Owlindex. Please study their relevant privacy policies before making your data available to them.
When making a purchase, you enter your credit/debit card details into a form supplied by the payment provider that will be processing the payment, and this information goes directly to the payment provider’s server. Your credit/debit card information never reaches Owlindex’s servers. We do not access and do not store your credit/debit card information. When you save your credit/debit card info, it is saved on the respective payment provider’s servers and the payment provider gives Owlindex a token that you can reuse for future payments. It is not possible to reconstruct your credit/debit card info from the token.
You can clear all payment information associated with your account at any time by going to the membership tab on the Owlindex website. If you choose to remove your payment information, we will delete your stored shipping info and payment tokens from all providers and ask the payment providers to remove your credit/debit card information that they store.
Due to the fact that Owlindex doesn’t store any credit/debit card details or transaction information, it is impossible for us to handle complaints or cashbacks – any disputed payments are the responsibility of the bot developers, payment providers, and banks that participated in the exchange.
In the Social media part: Other users/members of our social media with whom you choose to communicate with and share certain information. Note that by entering into the Terms and Conditions and choosing to communicate with such other users of Owlindex, you are instructing us to transfer your personal data, on your behalf, to those users in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We employ all appropriate technical and organizational measures (including encryption of your personal data) to ensure a level of security for your personal data that is appropriate to the risk.
In the Services part: Your information that you shared in the Listed Services, will only be shared with customers/users that want you to contact.
We may share your personal data with our parent organization, located the United States to help provide, improve and support our Services. We will implement appropriate safeguards to protect the security and integrity of that personal data.
If Owlindex receives a court order that confirms you’re a terror suspect, we may disclose your IP address and phone number to the relevant authorities. Owlindex has the right to follow any fraud cases (like; providing incorrect information/data to us in any form and accounts and …).
We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of organization assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another organization.

Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 16. If You are a parent or guardian and You are aware that Your child has provided us with personal data, please Contact Us. If We become aware that we have collected personal data from anyone under the age of 16 without verification of parental consent, We take steps to remove that information from our servers.
Whenever you like to delete your Lsited Services, you can do this on your account. Deleting your Services removes all texts, media, contacts, and every other piece of data you filled in Services forms in the Owlindex storage server. This action is not necessary to be confirmed via your Owlindex account and can be undone.
If you would like to delete your account, you can do this on the deactivation page. Deleting your account removes all messages, media, contacts, and every other piece of data you store in the Owlindex storage server. This action must be confirmed via your Owlindex account and cannot be undone. If you use our List Services part, by deleting your account, your listed services may be deleted too.
In secret chats, deleting a message always instructs the website/app on the other end to delete it too. Deleting a message will delete it from your message history. This means that a copy will stay on the server as part of your partner’s message history. As soon as your partner deletes it too, it’s gone forever.
Any party can choose to delete any messages in one-on-one chats, both sent and received, for both sides. There is no time limit. Any party can also opt to clear the entire chat history for both parties, in which case the apps will be instructed to remove all messages in that chat, regardless of how many messages are retained by either of the participants.
In supergroups and channels, deleting a message removes it for all participants. Note that deleted messages and original versions of edited messages from supergroups are stored for 48 hours after deletion in order to be shown in the admin’s log.
If you stop using Owlindex and do not come online for at least 12 months, your account may be deleted along with all messages, media, contacts, Listed Services, and every other piece of data you store in the Owlindex.
