LOCOVA (“we”, “our”, or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit locova.tech or sign up for our early access waitlist.
By providing your information or using our services, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not submit your information.
1. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information when you join our waitlist or interact with our platform:
- Personal Identifiers: Full name and email address.
- Contact Information: Phone number (optional, provided during waitlist sign-up).
- Usage Data: Your role or interest category (e.g., “Buyer”, “Vendor”, “Explorer”).
- Technical Data: IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited — collected automatically via standard server logs and analytics.
We do not collect sensitive personal data such as financial information, government IDs, or health data at this stage.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Manage and maintain our waitlist and notify you when LOCOVA launches in your area.
- Send product updates, launch announcements, and relevant communications related to LOCOVA.
- Understand user interest and segment early-access cohorts by role or location.
- Improve our website and product experience based on aggregate usage patterns.
- Comply with applicable legal obligations.
We will never sell your personal information to third parties. Period.
3. How We Share Your Information
We share your data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Service Providers: We use trusted third-party tools (e.g., Google Sheets for waitlist management) solely to operate our services. These providers are contractually obligated to keep your data confidential and may not use it for their own purposes.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority.
- Business Transfers: If LOCOVA is acquired or merges with another company, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to the same privacy protections.
4. Data Retention
We retain your waitlist data until LOCOVA launches and you have had the opportunity to create an account or opt out, or until you request deletion — whichever comes first. Technical logs are retained for up to 90 days.
5. Your Rights & Choices
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Deletion: Request that we delete your personal data from our systems.
- Opt-out: Unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time using the unsubscribe link in our emails.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@locova.tech. We will respond within 30 days.
6. Cookies & Tracking
Our website may use essential cookies to ensure basic functionality. We do not currently use advertising or tracking cookies. If this changes, we will update this policy and request your consent where required by law.
7. Security
We implement industry-standard technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of internet transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Children’s Privacy
LOCOVA is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with their data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Continued use of our site after changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
