IDY App Privacy Statement

How to Contact Us

OROMIA TECH LTD values the personal information you provide to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we protect your privacy and how you can control the way we use your personal information.

Having read this privacy statement, should you have any concerns or questions, please contact us at the email: support@oromia.tech.

General Statement

We are committed to protecting the privacy of personal information that comes our way in connection with our apps which are provided through the Google Play Apps Store and Microsoft Apps Store. While the transactions are handled through the Apps Store, you may contact us for support by email, or via our online support such as web-form based messaging.

The personal information that comes our way with support or similar instances and different communication means (telephone, video, chat, etc), is for the intended purpose and nothing more. We use that information only to provide you with support requested. We will never sell, rent, or lease such information. We will never give your information to a third-party unless, in exceptional circumstance, we are required to do so by law and court order. We value your trust and we promise to fully protect your private information.

Note: Some of the privacy items indicated below may not apply to the IDY app but we included all the items here for completeness. In fact, IDY is a free and light-weight App and not much user data is captured.

How We Collect Personal Data

In most cases, as listed below, we do not actively collect personal data, rather contact with personal data is unavoidable if the apps we build have to be useful to our customers with convenient features. For instance, having a backup is a good feature, but this raises the need to use a user account (and of course under full control of the user). While we do not collect and use such information directly, we feel we have to tell our customers how personal information can come our way as part of operational requirements by our apps and optional app features.

Error Reporting (Most Apps)

Although we take every care to avoid program crashes with intensive testing before release and updates, with the diverse usage scenarios there is no solid guarantee for an app to be free of unexpected errors. On very rare occasions, it is possible for an app to close unexpectedly, a well-established fact in the software industry. If such mishaps occur with our apps, we want to learn from those unforeseen incidents and fix the problem with immediate updates. Depending on the severity of the error, sometimes we may ask for your permission to send a report about that error. A dialog form will be presented to you with three options: (1) OK to send this error report; (2) OK to send error report anytime without asking; and (3) Never send error reports, and don’t ask me again. Whatever choice you make, we will respect that. An important point to emphasize is that an error report is all about the error to help us pinpoint failure points (or bugs) in our program. Needless to say, no personally identifiable data will be collected (nor is an app capable of accessing your personal information without your consent anyway).

Access Log Information

It is a well-established fact that web servers collect and log access and usage data comprising of browser details (type, version, cookie info, language, time-zone, plugins, etc) and IP addresses. Based on the browser information, such gathering of information can also make it possible for a previously visited website to be known to a current website. We are stating this here, so you know your IP addresses are automatically logged by our webservers.

Cookie Information

 We use cookies to provide our web visitors with the best possible online experience, such as providing more relevant content based on previous visits. We notify visitors with our use of cookies and a link to this Policy and if they consented to the use, we disable cookie notification for a 60-day period so long as our cookie is forwarded by the client browser during its life time. We also use analytic cookies with various pages to work out the stat of website page visits. You can read more on cookies at the Information Commissioner’s Office website.

Tracking Information

We use third-party website visitors’ statistical tools such as Google Analytics for the purpose of understanding the distribution of our potential customers by region, personal profile, etc., as provided by third-party service providers.

Automatically Generated Information

In some instances, information associated with an IP address are automatically generated following purchase transactions and logging such information with an IP address becomes essential. App purchase and download and subsequent updates keep logs of IP addresses by checking for validity of software licenses based on real-time querying of Microsoft App Store license server. While this is mainly controlled by Microsoft, we also keep log of IP addresses when additional app data (such as templates, icon images, courseware materials, etc) are downloaded from our website on initial app purchase as well as during updates.

How We Share and Disclose Personal Information

OROMIA TECH LTD has no control over how personal data is shared or disclosed. We do not sell your personal information. We do not pass on your information to other businesses or entities without your prior permission. One overriding exception to this is if we are required by law enforcement authorities or court order to access your information.

The following summarises the conditions under which personal data sharing or disclosure can occur:

  • With consent: OROMIA TECH LTD may share your personal information with third parties only when we have your consent to do so.
  • To comply with the law: if we receive a request for information (such as court order), we may disclose information we have on you (such as IP address) if we reasonably believe disclosure is in accordance with, or required by any applicable law, regulation or legal process.
  • To prevent fraud, defend ours and others’ rights and safety: Information may be disclosed in the interest of protecting and defending individuals and properties, including enforcing service contracts or policies, in connection with investigating security issues and preventing fraud.

We take security of personal data very seriously. We use all appropriate technologies and processes to protect personal information we hold from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access or disclosure.
