We may receive personal information from third parties. If we do, we will protect it as set out in this Privacy Policy.

Following are some of the most common circumstances when we will be using your personal data:

  • When we have a necessary and legitimate interest in doing so to provide the Service you have requested, or to comply with instructions provided by you or any other contractual obligations between you and i4T Global.
  • When there is an interest of a third-party recipient concerning your personal information, making the processing necessary, provided the third-party interests do not override your interests or fundamental rights to data privacy and freedom to information sharing.

We do not use your personal information for making any automated decisions affecting or creating profiles other than as mentioned in this privacy policy. Following are some examples of the types of personal data we may have concerning you. Note that these are not necessarily the information that we have obtained about you.

Registration Information and Device Access Permissions

Registration Information: This includes information you provide to us at the time of creating an account or registering for the service. We may ask for your email and mobile phone number, which we use to identify your account. You may also be asked to provide your first and last name, and/or a username during registration of your profile.

Location Information: i4T Global provides certain location-based features and hence we may collect real-time information about the location of your mobile device. This information will help us provide you access to the feature and a personalized experience while using our Service.

Camera and Video Access Permissions:Certain features of our Service require us to collect images from your device’s camera and photos. By allowing this device access permission, you will be giving your consent to the Service to access your device’s camera and to otherwise capture images/video from the device, including photos stored on your device. By giving this access permission, the Service will be able to save newly captured photos and videos on your device and access previously stored device’s photos and videos. Note that you won’t be able to use certain features of the app that require you to send or upload photos from your camera unless you have granted us permission to camera and video access permissions.

Speech Recognition:The Service can recognize spoken words in recorded or real-time audio with this device access permission, and we utilize it to manage text dictation and recognize voice commands. For the Service to perform speech recognition, audio of the user’s voice must be recorded and sent to servers for processing and analysis. These servers are run by either Apple or Android, depending on the operating system you use. Your choice to accept or reject the request will be presented to you the first time the Service asks for permission to use voice recognition. To prevent the user from being prompted every time, the system saves the user’s selection. The settings on your device allow you to change this permission, anytime.

Push Notifications:When you use the Service, you may choose to permit us to send you push notifications on your device. These settings can be changed at any time if you wish to turn off the notifications and stop getting these types of communications.

By altering the settings in the Service or the device access permissions on your mobile device, you can choose not to participate in this sort of location-based data collection.
