However, we may share your information with our affiliates and contracted service providers (such as customer care and data analytics) to support the operation of our website and services.

If we use your information for marketing purposes, you will have the option to opt out. We use your personal information to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, promote safe trading, collect due fees, measure consumer interest in our services, inform you about online and offline offers, products, services, and updates, customise your experience, detect and protect against error, fraud, and criminal activity, and enforce our Terms of Service.

Our Disclosure of Your Information

Your privacy is very important to us, and we are committed to safeguarding it. At waytooverseas.in, only share your personal information only with categories of persons who adhere to this Privacy Policy or follow practices that are equally protective. Here’s how we manage your information:

Advertisements
1. Information Sharing:
 When you submit information on an advertiser’s form, both waytooverseas.in and the advertiser collect it simultaneously. While we use this information in line with our privacy policy, the advertiser uses it according to their privacy practices. We advise you to review the advertiser’s privacy policies before providing your information.
2. Aggregated Data:
 We may use your personally identifiable information in an aggregated form and disclose it to advertisers and other third parties for marketing and promotional purposes.

Classified Listings

When you list a classified advertisement and an interested user expresses interest, we will provide your contact information, as provided in your registration form, to the interested user.

Services Offered by Third Parties on Our Site

For certain items and services, third parties may request information to perform services on our behalf (such as a custom mug image). This information is collected by both waytooverseas.in and the third party. The third party uses this information according to their privacy policy and the terms of the offer. We recommend evaluating their privacy practices before using their services.

Internal Service Providers

We may use third-party services to assist with various aspects of our business operations, including search technology, discussion boards, bill collection, affiliate and rewards programs, and co-branded credit cards. Consequently, we might share some of your personal information with these third-party providers. These service providers are subject to confidentiality agreements and legal restrictions that prohibit them from using your personal information for any purpose other than facilitating the specific outsourced service. If you interact directly with these providers, any additional information you disclose to them will be subject to their own privacy policies, for which waytooverseas.in is not responsible.

Other Corporate Entities

We share important information, including your personal information, with our parent company, affiliates, subsidiaries, and joint ventures. These entities are dedicated to meeting your online trading needs and related services worldwide. They are bound by our existing Privacy Policy whenever they access your personal information. As our business evolves, we may buy or sell stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer personal information is typically one of the transferred assets but remains subject to the commitments made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy.

Legal Requests

We cooperate with law enforcement, regulatory authorities and other third parties to enforce laws such as intellectual property rights and fraud protection. This is to protect you and our community from malicious activities. Consequently, if we receive a verified request from law enforcement or government officials linked to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity, we may disclose some of your personal information. You authorise us to do this as necessary to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal processes. We may share personal information with law enforcement agencies, third-party rights holders, or others when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to:

  • Enforce our Terms of Service or Privacy Policy
  • Address claims that an advertisement, post, or other content violates third-party rights
  • Protect the rights, property, or personal safety of our users or the public.

Your Use of Other Users’ Information

To facilitate interactions among waytooverseas.in members (buyers, sellers, service providers such as payment gateways and third-party logistics providers), our site allows access to other users’ contact information. For instance, as a seller, you will receive via email the waytooverseas.in registered user ID and other information of the winning buyer, and vice versa.
By agreeing to our Terms of Service, you commit to using other users’ personally identifiable information obtained through the site or related communications solely for:

  • waytooverseas.in -related interactions that are not unsolicited commercial messages
  • Using co-branded services offered through waytooverseas.in (e.g., insurance, shipping, and fraud complaints)
  • Any other purpose that the user explicitly opts into after adequate disclosure of the purpose(s).

In all cases, you must provide users with the option to remove themselves from your database and view the information you have collected about them. Additionally, you must not disclose any personally identifiable information about another user to any third party without our consent and the user’s consent after adequate disclosure.

We, at waytooverseas.in, and our users do not tolerate spam. Therefore, you are not permitted to add a waytooverseas.in user—even one who has purchased an item from you—to your mailing list (email or physical mail) without their explicit consent after adequate disclosure.

Children's Privacy

Way To Overseas’s services are only available to individuals who can legally enter into contracts under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. If you are under the age of 18, you cannot buy or sell any items on our site. Any purchases or sales must be carried out by your legal guardian or parents who are registered users.

Accessing or Changing Your Personal Information

To ensure the protection and security of your personal information, we will verify your identity before allowing access to or changes to your personal information. If you have registered on waytooverseas.in, you will need your user ID and password to access your profile information.

Security Measures

Once received, we adhere to strict security guidelines, as per the Indian Information Technology Act, 2000, to protect your data from unauthorised access.
