Tracky Solutions privacy policy
The applications ("apps") that Tracky Solutions publishes for the web and mobile devices, or "we", in this privacy policy means Tracky Solutions S.A.R.L, located c/o ste A and A Khadamat N 1525 Bur 05 CITE SALAM, Agadir, Morocco.
For the purposes of data protection laws, Tracky Solutions is the "controller" of your personal information. In most cases, the apps are free apps (with optional in-app purchases), and to maintain high quality and a great user experience, we process information about you, in particular to improve the overall experience in the apps and to support our internal operations.
This Privacy Policy applies when you download and use our apps or otherwise access any of our other services, content, websites (www.tracky.ma, among others) or other domains provided by Tracky Solutions, collectively referred to as the "Services". By using any of the Services, including when you use or access our Services through social networks or mobile devices, you agree to the collection and use of your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use (please note that depending on the Service, a customized version of the Terms of Use may apply to it, as indicated on that Service's website).
If you do not want Tracky Solutions to collect, store, use or share your information in the ways described in this Privacy Policy, you should not use the Tracky Solutions apps or Services.
This Policy:
- Covers the personal data we collect through our websites or mobile apps (Information we collect and how we collect it);
- Explains how the information gathered through our websites is used and protected (How we use that information);
- Provides information about your rights to access, correct, delete or object to the use of your personal data.
By using a Site and/or a Service and providing us with your personal data, you consent to the processing of your personal data as described in this privacy policy.
I. Information we collect and how we collect it
The information about you that we collect falls into two categories: information you provide to us directly and information we collect automatically.
1. Information you share directly with us
When you use our Services, you may provide information to us directly. We will store the information you provide directly on our systems and use it for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Some apps or parts of the Services may let you provide us with certain profile information, including:
- Your first and last name;
- Your age or date of birth;
- Your gender;

- Other information that allows us to authenticate you or improve our Services.
We may also let you create a user profile, separate from your site profile, that other Tracky Solutions users can see. Your user profile will include the following information that you provide to us:

b. Information about your contacts
Some of our Services let you import contacts from your address book, including names, email addresses and social network usernames where available, or enter them manually, so you can find your contacts on Tracky Solutions and invite them to use another of our Services. You are responsible for getting your contacts' permission when you choose to give us their contact details. We may receive information about you from other Tracky Solutions users who import or manually share their contacts. We use and may store some or all of those contact details so that you and your contacts can connect through any of our Services. If you want to remove the contacts stored in our apps or Services, follow the instructions provided in the app or Service concerned. If you have given us your contacts in several apps or Services and want to remove them from all apps and Services, you need to do this in each app or Service. If you have to enter a password to let us access your address book, we will not store that password.
c. Information you generate using our communication features
Some of our Services let you communicate or share information with Tracky Solutions and other Tracky Solutions users. These features include:
- User forums, newsletters and chat features;
- Private messaging;
- The ability to send invitations to other users, directly on our websites or to their email account;
- Sharing photos or drawings.
We may ask for your approval to access your audio, and it may be used only to let you communicate with other users. It will not be used for advertising or to improve or personalize our services. We can only access audio transmissions temporarily during chat features and will not record or store them on our servers.
You expressly acknowledge and agree that we may access in real time, record or store those communications, comments, photos and drawings on our servers. We will use those communications to protect the safety and well-being of our users and the rights and property of Tracky Solutions in connection with our Services; to conduct research; to operate, improve and personalize our Services and our users' experiences, including through analytics; and to manage and serve contextual ads.
d. Payment information
If you make purchases on our Services, our third-party payment processor will collect billing and financial information to process your charges. Tracky Solutions does not collect or store your financial information. However, Tracky Solutions' payment processors may share non-financial information with us related to your purchases, such as your transaction details, transaction IDs, the items purchased and the value of those purchases, in order to process your order.

If you want to opt out of cross-device tracking for interest-based advertising, you can do so from your Android or Apple device settings.

a. Our policies on children
Protecting children's privacy online is very important to us. Most of our services are intended for users of all ages, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If we offer Services intended for children, or when users identify themselves as children when we ask about age, we may provide additional privacy information about those Services, limit the collection of personal information to comply with the law, and/or ask for parental consent.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has given us personal information through the Services, please contact us by sending a request through our web form or an email to privacy@tracky.ma.
b. How long we keep your information
We do not keep your information longer than necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. How long we keep information depends on the purposes for which we collected and use it, or on what applicable laws require. For example, we may keep some information for a few years after you close your account with us if this is needed to meet legal obligations or to assert, defend or establish legal rights.
c. Security of your information
We implement appropriate security measures to protect your information. If you access our Services through a social network and your social network account is hacked, someone could gain access to your Tracky Solutions apps without your permission. Be sure to also protect your social network account details, including your social network account password. We encourage you to sign out of your Tracky Solutions account and any social network account you used to access our Services once you are done using them.
When you sign in to your Tracky Solutions account or enter payment information, we or our third-party payment processor use secure socket layer ("SSL") technology to encrypt the transmission of that information. Although we take reasonable precautions against possible security breaches of our Services, customer databases and records, no website or Internet transmission is completely secure. Although we work to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss or other breaches will never occur, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information while it is being transmitted to our Service. Any transmission is at your own risk. If you have questions about the security of our websites, please contact us through our website at www.tracky.ma.

As a Tracky Solutions user, you have the right to delete your account at any time. To do so, go to your account settings in the app. By selecting the account deletion option, you start the process of removing your personal data from our databases.
We take the privacy of your data seriously. Once the deletion request is made, your data will be permanently erased from our servers in a secure and irreversible way, in accordance with our data protection policies and applicable regulations.
Please note that this process cannot be undone. After deletion, you will not be able to recover your account or the associated data.
