Privacy Policy

Effective Date: July 27, 2026

AHIRA LLC ("AHIRA," "we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. AHIRA LLC operates as a parent business entity and developer of various digital products, applications, and websites, including its flagship social platform VIYU (theviyu.com). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your information when you interact with any product or service owned, operated, or provided by AHIRA LLC (collectively, the "Services").

Depending on which of our Services you use, we may collect information that you voluntarily provide, including:

• Account and Profile Information: Full name, username, email address, password, and date of birth (required to strictly enforce adult 18+ age-gated safety protections).
• User-Provided Content: Text, images, media, data inputs, files, or other content that you choose to upload, transmit, or store within our applications or platforms.
• Identity Verification Data: If you opt into or are required to become a verified user on our platforms, third-party verification engines (such as Stripe Identity) securely collect and process your government-issued photo identification and biometric data to confirm you are 18 or older. AHIRA LLC does not directly store your raw biometric data or full identification documents.
• Communication Data: Information you provide when contacting AHIRA or its product support teams directly for help, inquiries, or feedback.

Note: Financial and payment processing information is handled securely by our third-party payment processors. AHIRA LLC does not store your complete financial account or payment card information.

We use your information to operate, secure, maintain, and deliver our ecosystem of products. This includes:

• Creating, managing, and maintaining your user accounts across our Services.
• Processing transactions and delivering the specific functionalities of the product you are using.
• Enforcing Adult-Only Safety Tiers: Utilizing account data and verification status to ensure all participants meet the legal age of majority (18+), blocking automated bots, eradicating spam, and protecting the adult integrity of the platform.
• Responding to your technical issues, customer support requests, or product feedback.
• Detecting, preventing, and mitigating spam, malicious activity, automated interference, cyber threats, or safety violations.
• Complying with applicable laws, legal processes, and enforcing our global Terms of Service.

AHIRA LLC is strictly committed to protecting human data, privacy, and intellectual property across our entire product catalog.

• No AI Licensing: AHIRA LLC will never sell, rent, license, trade, or distribute your personal data or user-uploaded content to any third party for the purpose of training artificial intelligence, machine learning algorithms, Large Language Models (LLMs), or generative software.
• Scraping Prohibitions: We implement aggressive technical barriers to block external AI crawlers, data harvesters, and automated scraping tools from capturing data from any of our proprietary Services.

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Despite these safeguards, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share your data only under the following limited circumstances:

• Intra-Company Support: We may share information internally between AHIRA LLC and our wholly-owned product lines or subsidiaries to provide a seamless user experience, provided they adhere to this same Privacy Policy.
• Functional Product Design: Content or data you choose to share openly or publicly within a specific service will be visible to other users based on the functional design and access tiers of that specific product.
• Service Providers: With trusted third-party vendors who perform essential operational tasks on our behalf (such as secure cloud hosting, database management, and payment processing), subject to strict confidentiality agreements.
• Legal Compliance: When required by applicable law, legal process, subpoena, or valid court order.
• Safety and Defense: When necessary to investigate potential fraud, enforce our policies, protect our legal rights, or protect the safety and rights of our users, the public, or AHIRA LLC.

We retain your personal information only for as long as your account is active, or as reasonably necessary to fulfill the specific purposes outlined in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Upon account or data deletion requests, your data will be removed or anonymized within a reasonable technical timeframe, except where legally required to be retained.

Depending on your geographic location, you may possess specific rights regarding your personal data under local regulations (such as GDPR or CCPA), including the right to request access to, correction of, or permanent deletion of your personal information. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us through the official Contact mechanisms provided on the AHIRA website.

Our Services utilize necessary and functional cookies to keep you logged in, maintain security, remember your operational preferences, and evaluate basic performance metrics. We do not use third-party cross-site advertising trackers. You can manage cookie preferences through your individual browser or device settings.

Our Services are strictly intended for individuals who are at least 18 years of age (or the legal age of majority in their jurisdiction).

• No Minors Permitted: We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If we discover that an account has been opened by a minor, or that an individual has falsified their age to bypass our gates, we will immediately and permanently terminate the account and delete all associated data from our systems.
• Verification Protocols: Access to interactive features, messaging, and content publishing requires age confirmation through trusted third-party verification frameworks to ensure strict adherence to this adult-only mandate.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect the launch of new products, modifications to our existing Services, or changes in legal obligations. When updates are made, we will revise the "Effective Date" at the top of this document. Your continued use of any AHIRA platform or service after updates take effect constitutes explicit acceptance of the revised policy.

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data management practices, please contact us through the Contact page on our official corporate website.
