In some cases/provision of certain service(s) or utility(ies), we may require your contact address as well. Further, upon downloading the App, Users are requested to share access to their contact list (as stored on their mobile device on which the App is downloaded), so as to enable the User to share payment/credit updates with his customers (who might be or might not be Users). We also do not share this data with any third party.

We may access a user's inventory of installed apps and treat this data as personal or sensitive data subject to the Privacy Policy, Secure Transmission, and Prominent Disclosure requirements of User.

Any personally identifiable Information provided by you will not be considered as sensitive if it is freely available and/or accessible in the public domain. Further, any reviews, comments, messages, blogs posted / uploaded / conveyed / communicated by Users on the public sections of the Site or an Application Store (like the App Store or Play Store) becomes published content and is not considered personally identifiable Information which is subject to this Privacy Policy.

In case you choose to decline to submit personally identifiable Information on the TransportBook App/Site, we may not be able to provide certain services on the App/Site to you. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of the same at the appropriate time. In any case, we will not be liable and or responsible for the denial of certain services to you for lack of you providing the necessary personal Information.

Information automatically tracked while using the app or site

Credit/Payment Records: We store all your credit/payment records in a cloud-based environment using the services of 3rd party infrastructure service providers.

Customer Information: We store the contact information of your customers. We also keep a log of all the credit/payment related communication to the customers.

Demographic and Related Information: We may reference other sources of demographic and other information in order to provide you with more targeted communications and promotions. We use Google Analytics, among others, to track the User behaviour on our website.

Log File Information: Our Servers automatically collect limited Information about your device's connection to the internet, including your IP address, when you visit our Site or use the App. We automatically receive and log Information from the App and/or your browser including but not limited to IP address, your device or computer's name, and your operating system, We may also collect log Information from your device, including but not limited to your location, IP address, your device's name, device's serial number or unique identification number (e.g. UDID on your iOS device, Android ID or ADID on your Android Device), your device operating system, browser type and version, CPU speed, and connection speed etc.

Cookies: To improve the responsiveness of the Site for our Users, we may use "cookies", or similar electronic tools to collect information to assign each visitor a unique, random number as a User Identification (User ID) to understand the User's individual interests using the identified computer. Our partners may also assign their own cookies to your browser, a process that we do not control.

Link to third party sites/ad-servers

The Site may include links to other websites. Such websites are governed by their respective privacy policies, which are beyond our control. Once you leave our servers (you can tell where you are by checking the URL in the location bar on your browser), use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the site you are visiting. That policy may differ from ours. If you can't find the privacy policy of any of these sites via a link from the website's homepage, you should contact the website directly for more information.

Information sharing

The Company may share the Information (including sensitive personal information) with any third party without obtaining the prior consent of the User in the following limited circumstances:

When it is requested or required by law or by any court or governmental agency or authority to disclose, for the purpose of verification of identity, or for the prevention, detection, investigation including cyber incidents, or for prosecution and punishment of offences. These disclosures are made in good faith and belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary for enforcing the Terms of Use or for complying with the applicable laws and regulations. No personally identifiable data of an individual User such as name, phone number, email address, spends data, card details etc. would be shared with any other User and/or third party unless explicitly approved by the concerned individual User himself/herself. However, if this conflicts with conditions mentioned in the immediate point above, this condition would become null and void. The Company may also present information related to credit records, User spends, patterns and User data tracked by the company only in the form of aggregated statistics on data such as overall app usage by date, time, balances, etc. within our app/site or to our partners.

Accessing and updating personal information

When you use the Site (or any of its sub sites), we make good faith efforts to provide you, as and when requested by you, with access to your personal Information and shall further ensure that any personal Information or sensitive personal data or Information found to be inaccurate or deficient shall be corrected or amended as feasible, subject to any requirement for such personal Information or sensitive personal data or Information to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes. We ask individual Users to identify themselves and the Information requested to be accessed, corrected or removed before processing such requests, and we may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning Information residing on backup tapes), or for which access is not otherwise required. In any case, where we provide Information access and correction, we perform this service free of charge, except if doing so would require a disproportionate effort. Because of the way we maintain certain services, after you delete your Information, residual copies may take a period of time before they are deleted from our active servers and may remain in our backup systems.

Information storage and backup

From time to time, we take backup of your data on TransportBook App on our cloud database. This is done for the purpose of enabling Users to get their data back in case their phone's data becomes unusable, or phone gets lost, or the User moves to a new phone device. We also use this backup to provide useful insights and Information related to their spends such as weekly spends in a month, insights related to spend behaviour, etc., and to provide Information related to User spends, patterns and User data in the form of aggregated and anonymized statistics on data such as User spends by category, date, time, bank balances, etc.

We shall keep your information in our records till the period of time where we can potentially offer the TransportBook App Services to you. After such period of time where TransportBook App Services are no more relevant to you, we remove all the Information from our records.

Information security

We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, including appropriate encryption and physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal data. All Information gathered on the TransportBook App is securely stored within the controlled database. Access to the servers is password-protected and is strictly limited.

Updates/Changes

We may alter our Privacy Policy from time to time to incorporate necessary changes in technology, applicable law or any other variant. In any case, we reserve the right to change (at any point of time) the terms of this Privacy Policy or the Terms of Use. Any changes we make will be effective immediately on notice, which we may give by posting the new policy on the Site. Your use of the TransportBook App Services after such notice will be deemed acceptance of such changes. We may also make reasonable efforts to inform you via electronic mail. In any case, you are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically on the Site to ensure that you are aware of the latest version.
