Legal Bases for Processing
Where applicable under data protection laws such as the GDPR, we process personal data based on: (1) performance of a contract with you; (2) your consent, where required; (3) our legitimate interests in operating and improving the Services; and (4) compliance with legal obligations.
Third-Party Services
Our Services may link to or integrate with third-party websites, payment processors, analytics providers, or hospitality systems. Those third parties operate under their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review their policies before providing information to them.
The Welconic Android TV app may rely on Google Play services and Android system components. Your use of those services is also subject to Google's applicable terms and policies.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the Services, fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it in accordance with our retention practices.
You may request deletion of your account and associated data, subject to limitations where we must retain certain records for legal, security, or billing purposes.
Security
We implement administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing of your personal information, and to receive a portable copy of your data. You may also withdraw consent where processing is consent-based.
To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
You can manage certain account settings directly in the Welconic portal. On your Android TV device, you may uninstall the Welconic app or revoke permissions through your device settings.
Children's Privacy
Welconic is intended for business and hospitality use by adults and authorized property staff. Our Services are not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
International Data Transfers
We may process and store information in countries other than where you are located. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards—such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms—to protect personal information transferred across borders.
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. Material changes may also be communicated through the portal, app, or email where appropriate. Continued use of the Services after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
