LYGHT POX is designed to help participating individuals, merchants, businesses, nonprofit organizations, sponsors, program administrators, and other approved participants access and use eligible vouchers, tokens, rewards, pledged value, benefits, and other approved exchange options.
This Privacy Policy explains how LYGHT POX, UNYTI, LLC, and authorized service providers supporting the LYGHT POX platform may collect, use, process, store, protect, and disclose information when you:

• receive, present, transfer, redeem, or apply eligible value;
• conduct activity with a participating merchant or organization;

In this Privacy Policy, the terms “LYGHT POX,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the LYGHT POX platform and its authorized operators. The terms “user,” “you,” and “your” refer to individuals or authorized representatives who access or use the application.
By using LYGHT POX, you acknowledge the data practices described in this Privacy Policy.
2. THE ROLE OF LYGHT POX
LYGHT POX functions as a point-of-exchange interface within a broader community ecosystem.
Depending upon the participating program, organization, merchant, or network, the application may allow users to:
• create and maintain a user account;

• access eligible vouchers, rewards, tokens, credits, or pledged value;
• present eligible value to a participating merchant or organization;
• verify eligibility or authorization;
• redeem or apply approved value;
• view transaction and account activity;
• participate in approved community programs or campaigns;
• interact with participating businesses and organizations;
• receive service messages and important account notifications.
The exact features available to a user may differ according to the user's role, participating network, program, merchant relationship, organization, geographic availability, and account permissions.
3. INFORMATION WE MAY COLLECT
We collect information reasonably necessary to provide, administer, secure, and improve LYGHT POX.
The information collected depends upon how you use the application and which features are enabled for your account or participating network.
A. Account and Registration Information
When an account is created or administered, we may collect information such as:
• first and last name;
• display name;

• telephone number;
• username or account identifier;
• password or authentication credentials in secured or encrypted form;
• user role or account type;
• participating organization, merchant, or network affiliation;
• account status;
• communication preferences.
We use this information to establish and maintain accounts, authenticate users, provide appropriate access, communicate with users, and protect the platform from unauthorized use.
B. Business and Organization Information
For merchants, businesses, nonprofit organizations, sponsors, and other participating entities, we may collect:
• business or organization name;

• information relating to offers, vouchers, pledges, rewards, campaigns, or participation agreements.
Some business information may be public or may be displayed through participating Communyti services.
C. Transaction and Exchange Information
When you use LYGHT POX to access or use eligible value, we may process information including:

• authorization or verification information;
• redemption history;
• transfer history, when applicable;
• transaction identifiers;
• adjustment, reversal, settlement, or reconciliation information;
• records necessary for reporting, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and program administration.
This information is necessary to operate a reliable and accountable point-of-exchange system.

We use this information to respond to questions, provide technical assistance, investigate issues, and improve our services.
E. Device and Technical Information
When you use the application, certain technical information may be collected automatically by the application, hosting infrastructure, security systems, or authorized service providers.
This information may include:
• device type;
• device model;
• operating system and version;

F. Camera and QR Code Information
When QR code functionality is available, LYGHT POX may request access to your device camera.
Camera access may be used to scan participating QR codes or other approved codes necessary to identify, verify, initiate, or complete an eligible interaction.
Camera access is subject to device permissions.
LYGHT POX does not claim ownership of photographs or personal images stored on your device merely because camera access is enabled. Camera access is intended for application features requiring scanning or image capture.
G. Location Information
Certain participating programs or future location-based features may use approximate or precise location information when necessary to provide a location-dependent service.
Where device location is required, the application will request the applicable device permission.
Location information may be used to:
• identify participating services or merchants in a relevant area;
• support location-dependent program features;
• prevent fraud or unauthorized activity;
• provide requested location-based functionality.
Users can manage location permissions through their device settings. Some location-dependent features may not function properly when permission is denied.
H. Payment and Financial Transaction Information
Some transactions, purchases, payouts, settlements, or connected services may involve a third-party financial institution, payment processor, payment gateway, or other authorized financial service provider.
Those providers may collect and process payment information according to their own terms and privacy policies.
Depending on the transaction, LYGHT POX may receive limited information necessary to identify and record the status of a transaction, such as:
• transaction confirmation;
• payment status;
• amount;
• date;
• reference number;
• processor transaction identifier.
We do not claim to store full payment card information when that information is collected and processed directly by an authorized third-party payment processor.
4. HOW WE USE INFORMATION
We may use collected information to:
• create, authenticate, maintain, and secure user accounts;
• provide LYGHT POX features and services;
• process authorized point-of-exchange activity;
• maintain balances and activity records;
• verify participating users, merchants, and organizations;
• administer vouchers, rewards, tokens, pledged value, programs, and campaigns;
• process redemptions, transfers, adjustments, and related activity;

We may also use aggregated or de-identified information for reporting, planning, service improvement, and understanding participation patterns, provided such information does not reasonably identify an individual.

To protect users from unauthorized deletion, we may require identity or account verification before processing a request.
Following a verified deletion request, we will delete or de-identify personal information associated with the account, subject to information that must be retained for reasons including:
• legal obligations;
• transaction recordkeeping;
• accounting and reconciliation;
• fraud prevention;
• security investigations;
• dispute resolution;

LYGHT POX may connect with or provide access to participating merchants, organizations, service providers, payment processors, websites, or other third-party services.
Third-party services operate under their own privacy practices and terms.
