Personal information is data used to identify an individual or contact a specific person. You may be required to provide personal information when contacting GEONET or affiliated companies.

The company and its affiliates may share this information and use it according to this Privacy Policy, potentially combining it with other data to provide and improve products, services, content and advertising.

Registration may require: name, gender, email, mailing address, telephone number, contact preferences and payment information.

Collected personal information enables:

1. User account creation based on provided information
2. Communications including newsletters, promotions, and marketing materials (you may opt out; mandatory notices about service interactions cannot be declined)
3. Contest and promotion administration
4. Product/service development, improvement, and research
5. Service opinion feedback and notifications about app changes
6. Customer service inquiries directed to [email protected]

Comments and feedback may be posted publicly using only your registration name, profile photo, and city. Prohibited content includes defamatory, obscene, or offensive material; content promoting violence, discrimination, or hate speech; intellectual property infringement; third-party privacy violations; illegal activity promotion; misrepresentation of origin; and impersonation. The company reserves rights to edit or delete violating content.

Non-personal information cannot be directly associated with any individual. Examples include age, preferences, language, postal code, and area code.

General user activity information is aggregated to help understand which site sections, products, and services attract interest. Aggregated data is considered non-personal information under this policy.

When non-personal information is combined with personal information, the combined data is treated as personal information while combined.

The company, online services, applications, emails, and advertising may use cookies, pixel tags, and web beacons to understand user behaviour, measure advertising effectiveness, and web search performance. Information from these technologies is generally treated as non-personal unless IP addresses or similar identifiers are classified as personal by applicable law (including under the GDPR, where IP addresses are considered personal data).

Cookies and technologies also remember personal information to enhance convenience and personalisation. Knowing your first name enables personalised greetings; country and language information provide customised browsing experiences.

Like most sites, the company automatically collects information stored in log files: IP addresses, browser type and language, Internet service provider, entry/exit pages, operating system, date/time information, and click sequence data.

This information helps understand trends, administer the site, analyse user behaviour, and obtain demographic information about the user base, potentially used in marketing and advertising.

"Click-through URLs" in emails are monitored to understand interest in topics and evaluate communication effectiveness. Avoiding this requires not clicking text or image links in emails.

Pixel tags enable reading email message formats and detecting whether emails were opened, potentially reducing or eliminating sent messages.

Users can unsubscribe from future email newsletter contacts anytime by accessing the unsubscribe link in emails.

Our app may collect or access the following health and wellness related data in connection with the services we provide:

1. Location data that may be associated with health-related venues (e.g., gyms, clinics, wellness centres)
2. User-generated content related to health and wellness venues or activities

This data is collected solely for the purpose of providing our location-based social networking services, including enabling check-ins, venue discovery, and social sharing features.

Service Providers: The company may use third-party companies and individuals to facilitate services, maintain databases, analyse data, enhance features, or analyse service usage. These parties have access only to perform assigned tasks and cannot use or disclose information otherwise.

Others: The company may be required by law, legal processes, litigation, or public/governmental authority determinations to disclose personal information. Disclosure may occur for national security, legal requirements, public importance matters, or when reasonably necessary to enforce terms or protect operations/users. In restructuring, merger, or sale events, personal information may transfer to applicable third parties.

The company takes administrative, technical, and physical precautions protecting personal information against loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

The company helps keep personal information accurate, complete, and current, retaining it for periods required by this policy unless longer retention is legally required or permitted.

Services contain links to third-party websites and online services. Redirection to third parties does not constitute endorsement, authorisation, or affiliation representation, nor endorsement of their privacy or security policies. The company does not control third-party sites and advises reading their privacy policies and terms before providing information or using services.

As GEONET INTERNET LIMITED is established in Ireland, a member state of the European Union, the processing of personal data is subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 ("GDPR"), the Irish Data Protection Act 2018, and the ePrivacy Regulations.

5.2 Legal Bases for Processing

GDPR requires specific legal bases for processing personal data:

Service Provision: User profile information maintains accounts and identity verification; contact data communicates check-ins, reservations, and payments; personal contact details enable request responses and relevant information delivery. Essential Platform maintenance, promotions, inter-user communication, and service efficiency optimisation information is processed.

User/Third-Party Protection: The company may store and disclose personal data to competent authorities when Platform or third-party safety is threatened.

Legitimate Interests: Data collection optimises user experience and security, preventing unverified or unreliable persons from creating Platform risks. Removed user data is retained to prevent their return, improving service quality. Fraud risk minimisation through data processing enables identity verification and fraud response. Cooperation with judicial authorities regarding unlawful or harmful acts. Customer service and support require information processing. Platform capabilities, upgrades, and improvements require data collection and processing, benefiting both company and user interests. Internal research and analysis on Platform functioning and user profiles.

Legal Obligation: Laws, regulations, and judicial authority determinations require the company to collect, store, process, and retain certain information with legal backing.

Consent-Based Processing: The company may collect and use information based on consent, revocable at any time through account deletion or emailing [email protected]. Revoking consent prevents accessing services and functionality dependent on that personal information.

5.3 International Data Transfers

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), GEONET INTERNET LIMITED ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission or adequacy decisions.

5.4 Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. When your data is no longer needed, it will be securely deleted or anonymised.

The following data is collected through your consent:

1. User information is maintained in Google Cloud & AWS infrastructure using encryption at rest and in transit
2. Location is monitored when using the app because app gamification and check-in features require it
3. Location and user information may be shared with advertising partners for targeted advertisement delivery through newsfeed banners, in compliance with applicable data protection laws
4. Username (changeable per Terms of Service), email, encrypted password, date of birth, and gender are stored in company databases

Our Platform uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience. By using our Platform, you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this policy.
