Access to Personal Information: Users can send us a written request (by email or mail), clearly stating the content of personal information they wish to access. We will review and process it within [specific time limit] after receiving the request. After verifying the user’s identity is correct, we will provide the user with a copy of the requested personal information to facilitate the user’s understanding of the information we have about them.
Correction of Inaccurate Information: If users find that their personal information is inaccurate or incomplete, they can correct it by logging into their account or contacting our customer service personnel and providing accurate information. We will complete the information update within [specific time limit] after receiving the correction request and ensure that the updated information is correctly stored and used in our system.
Deletion of Personal Information: Users have the right to request the deletion of their personal information by submitting a written application (stating the reason for deletion and relevant information). After receiving the application, we will evaluate the user’s request. If it meets the deletion conditions (for example, the user no longer uses our services and there is no legal retention obligation), we will delete the user’s personal information in a safe way within [specific time limit] and ensure that it cannot be recovered.
