Dear User,

Thank you for choosing "AINEST" products and services. To clearly explain our

privacy rules, your rights, and to provide enhanced personal information protection, we

have prepared this "AINEST" Privacy Policy (hereinafter referred to as the "Policy").

This Policy outlines your control over personal data, uses enhanced disclosure

methods for key privacy terms, and grants you the right to explicitly consent or decline.

Please read and fully understand this Policy before using or continuing to use

"AINEST" products/services. Your continued use constitutes acceptance of all terms.

Before you accept this Policy, we will notify you prominently on the "AINEST"

insufficient notice.

achieve intended service outcomes.

We reserve the right to amend this Policy periodically. Updates will be posted here and
