Introduction

This privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") applies to all visitors and customers of the altmo.app hosted services and websites (collectively, the "Website" or "Websites" or “App”) and self-managed installations, which are offered by Urbanmorph Consultants Pvt Ltd and/or any of its affiliates ("Altmo" or "we" or "us") and describes how we process your personal information in connection with those Websites or self managed installations, customer events and demos, and how we collect information through the use of cookies and related technologies. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By accessing or using any part of the Websites or self-managed installations, you acknowledge you have been informed of and consent to our practices with regard to your personal information and data.

Altmo is a collaborative community, as well as a company. This means that many portions of our Websites, including information you voluntarily provide, will be public-facing for the open sharing of innovative developments, ideas, and information that makes our collaborative community so great. While we are committed to open sharing, we strive to respect the privacy of individual community members and will minimize the information we collect and share. If you do not want to share your information, including personally identifiable information, with other community members and the public, please be thoughtful as to how you interact with our Websites and what information you provide through the Websites (for example, through creating a public profile, project contributions, comments, and blog posts).

Unless otherwise stated, we act as the data controller for the data processing operations described in this Privacy Policy.

We may provide additional information about our privacy practices in other places - for example, when we ask you to provide personal information in connection with a particular service or when you apply for a job with us.

What information Altmo collects and why

Information from website visitors

Like most website operators, Altmo automatically collects (i) technical information about your device including your device's internet protocol (IP) address; and (ii) information about your visit to our Websites (the referral URL, the content viewed and the content interacted with).

Some of this information is collected using cookies and related technologies. See below for further information on these technologies. We collect this information to better understand how visitors use our Websites, to improve our Websites and experience for visitors, and to monitor the security of the Websites.

For logged-in customers to Altmo deployments, Altmo also collects this information on our application using our own software, to help us understand how to make the deployments more useful for different categories of customer.

In addition to the usage information we collect the following information about your activities that are critical to providing services to you

Altmo uses cookies to help Altmo identify and track visitors, their usage of the Websites, and their Website access preferences. Altmo visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers may set their browsers to refuse cookies before using the Websites.

Analytics

We may use third-party analytics services such as Google Analytics and PostHog to collect information about how you use our app and/or websites. This is so that we can iteratively make your experience better and build on your pain points. You will find the Digital Privacy Agreement of such services on our website.

Data retention and deletion

If you already have an account on the Websites, you may access, update, alter, or delete your basic customer profile information by logging into your account and updating profile settings.

Altmo will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to perform our contractual obligations, provide you services through the Website, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, preserve legal rights, or enforce our agreements. Retention periods will be determined taking into account the type of information that is collected and the purpose for which it is collected, bearing in mind the requirements applicable to the situation and the need to destroy outdated, unused information at the earliest reasonable opportunity. For instance, in respect of data held for the management of customers and potential customers, we consider the lead time necessary to develop and maintain our commercial relationships and how recent our interactions are with you. We may rectify, update or remove incomplete or inaccurate information, at any time and at our own discretion. For more information on our retention periods you can contact us by sending an email to contact@altmo.app
