Privacy Policy

This privacy policy describes how we collect, use, disclose and save your personal data. Please keep in mind, we are an open platform, and anyone can see your profile (with personal data you select) and reviews you posted. Don't share anything you wouldn't share with a stranger on the street!

Why we collect your personal data

We collect and process your personal data carefully, only for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and only to the extent necessary as defined therein and within the scope of the applicable legal regulations. We collect your data only based on your consent. The consent given can be revoked.

Data is stored only for the period you have a register account with us, or as we are legally obliged to do so.

Terms we use in this policy

When we say "website" or "platform", we mean all of Tickiwi's websites and applications.

When we say "we" we mean Tickiwi team.

When you use our Platform, you consent to our collection, use and disclosure of information about you as described in this Privacy policy.

1. Data we collect

We collect your personal data when you are creating an account with us, when you post a review or when you create a Business profile. For this purpose we collect the following data:

  • Contact information: Your first and last name, email address or any other contact details you might provide
  • Device information: Your IP address and browser settings (the type of browser you use, browser language, time zone)

  • Business profile information: Your password, your company name and domain, your payment method(s) and other information you decide to provide about your business. For Payments, Tickiwi is using a third-party service called Stripe (https://www.stripe.com/). Your Payment information might be shared with Stripe. Please refer to their Privacy policy if you would like to know more.
  • Usage and profiling information: Your Tickiwi's search history, how you've interacted with our platform, time you spent on our platform, e-mails we sent you, marketing material you've opened and links you clicked on
  • Information about reviews and ratings, including:

2. How we collect personal data

Majority of the data is collected when you create an account with us and based on your interaction with the platform.

Sometimes, information about you is given to use by third parties - for example, when you login with your social media account. In this case, your account is automatically fulfilled with your data. Another case would be, when a Business asks us to send invitations to write reviews for them. In this case, we get your name and your e-mail address.

3. Who controls your personal data?

You control your personal data, that you choose to share with us. If you include personal information in the content you post publicly, other users may be able to identify you or associate you with your account. Always be careful which data you share! You always have a right to change or delete your personal data.

All personal data associated with our platform are controlled by Tickiwi.

4. What is your personal data used for

We may use your personal data to:

  • Provide our services to you. This includes displaying your reviews and giving you access to your user account and our platform or providing you with access to your Business's account and our website.

  • Improve our offering and user experience for all our members
  • Respond to your questions and offer customer service and support
  • Send you our newsletters
  • Engage in various internal Business purposes - for example data analytics, fraud monitoring, improving our user experience and user services, and for improving the quality of them.

If you have a personal account with Tickiwi, we may also use your personal data to:

  • Verify the authenticity of your reviews
  • Invite you to post more reviews
  • Pass on a message from the Business your reviewed
  • Contact you if your review is flagged or reported by businesses and if needed, ask you to provide some documentation to verify your review.
  • Notify you about how useful your reviews were to other members, and how many times they've been read.

If you have a Business profile with Tickiwi, we may also use your data to:

  • Notify you about reviews your Business is receiving
