Data Privacy Policy
This privacy policy ("Policy") describes how we collect, use, and disclose information that we receive through our mobile application (the "App").
1. Information Collection and Use
We collect a variety of information from users of the App to improve user experience, ensure efficient service delivery, and fulfill our legitimate business interests. This information may include but is not limited to: your GPS location data, device and network information, and other related information that aids our service delivery. We use this information to provide you with personalized and optimized recommendations based on your preferences and behavioral data, and for other operational purposes such as troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, system maintenance, support, reporting, and hosting of data. We also utilize APIs provided by Google and OpenAI in our App. Google API usage may include access to Google Maps for location-based services, Google Analytics for usage data analysis, among others. OpenAI API usage facilitates features within our app that rely on artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities. Both these services have their own privacy policies which you can access at Google Privacy Policy and OpenAI Privacy Policy.
2. Information Sharing and Disclosure
Information Sharing and Disclosure We may share the collected information with third-party service providers, including Google and OpenAI, who help us provide and improve the services offered by the App. They have access to personal data only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose. Additionally, we may disclose your information in response to a valid court order, legal requirement, government request, or to enforce our terms and conditions. We also reserve the right to share information with law enforcement agencies to investigate or prevent illegal activities, suspected fraud, or potential threats to the safety of any person.
3. Data Security
We take data security extremely seriously and implement robust security measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We apply physical, electronic, and managerial procedures designed to safeguard and secure the data we collect. However, we must emphasize that no system can be 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee that communications between you and us, or any information provided to us in connection with the information we collect through the App will be free from unauthorized access by third parties.
4. Children’s Privacy
Our App is designed for and intended to be used by individuals of all ages. However, we are committed to complying with all applicable laws and regulations regarding children's privacy. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 13 without parental consent, we will promptly take steps to delete such information. Parents or guardians who believe that their child has submitted personal information to us and would like to have it deleted may contact us at info@kalbytes.com.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time in response to changing legal, technical, or business developments. When we update our Policy, we will take appropriate measures to inform you, consistent with the significance of the changes we make. We will obtain your consent to any material Policy changes if and where this is required by applicable data protection laws.
6. Your Data Rights and Choices
Depending on the jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or limit the use of certain personal data we have collected about you, and to receive a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format. You may also have the right to object to our processing of your data.
7. Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to provide the services offered by the App and for legitimate and essential business purposes, such as maintaining the performance of the App, making data-driven business decisions about new features and offerings, complying with our legal obligations, and resolving disputes. We'll retain some of your information as necessary to meet our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to enforce our agreements, to support business operations, and to continue to develop and improve our services. Where we retain information for service improvement and development, we take steps to eliminate information that directly identifies you, and we only use the information to uncover collective insights about the use of our services, not to specifically analyze personal characteristics about you.
8. International Data Transfers
In order to provide our services, we may need to transfer your personal information to locations outside the jurisdiction in which you provide it or where you are viewing our website for the purposes set out in this privacy policy. This may entail a transfer of your information from a location within the European Economic Area (the "EEA") to outside the EEA, or from outside the EEA to a location within the EEA. Please note that the level of legal protection for personal information is not the same in all countries. If we transfer your information outside the EEA, we will take steps to ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected in compliance with applicable data protection law and this privacy policy.
9. Cookie Policy
The App may use "cookies" and other technologies such as pixel tags, locally shared objects, and web beacons. We use these technologies to remember user preferences, maximize the performance of our website and services, provide you with offers that may be of interest to you, measure the effectiveness of our email campaigns, and to personalize online content. Please note that you have the ability to manage or refuse such technologies by changing the settings on your device. However, please be aware that limiting the ability of websites to set cookies may worsen your overall user experience.
9. Third-Party Services
Our App may contain links to other websites and services. Please remember that when you use a link to go from our App to another website or service, our Policy does not apply to those third-party websites or services. Your browsing and interaction on any third-party website or service, including those that have a link in our App, are subject to that third party's own rules and policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these third parties.
10. Compliance
We make every effort to protect the privacy of our users and to comply with all relevant laws and regulations. If you are a resident of the European Economic Area and believe we maintain your personal data subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you may direct questions or complaints to our lead supervisory authority. By using the App, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, and you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information by us in accordance with these terms.
