If we receive a notice of alleged:

(a) intellectual property right infringement; or

(b) breach of a right to privacy, Jacapo may delete or disable all or part of the collection alleged to be infringing intellectual property rights or breaching rights to privacy, without prejudice to its rights to terminate your right to use the Jacapo app or suspend your access to the Jacapo app.
