Privacy Policy

QuickCart Ltd. ( "WholeLot", "us" or "we") offers a linking and analytics platform enabling developers of applications (our " Clients")--whether those applications are websites or "apps," and across different types of devices--to improve their end users’ (" Users") cross-application experiences, and to derive additional insights into how their Users download and utilize those applications. WholeLot recognizes and believes that data privacy is important to all Internet users, and therefore we design and operate our services in a privacy-first manner.

This Privacy Policy is divided into three parts, and is intended to meet requirements globally, including those in North America, Europe, APAC, and other jurisdictions:

• Collection and Use of Information from Our Services: This section explains how information is collected about our Clients’ Users, and used, by WholeLot in connection with the provision of our products and services (the " WholeLot Services" or the " Services").
• Collection and Use of Information from Our Website: This section explains how information is collected and used by us from our website visitors through our website located at www.wholelot.co.uk (the " Website"), which includes the dashboard provided to our Clients located at dashboard.wholelot.co.uk. So, if you are a Client using our WholeLot dashboard, this section applies to the data we collect from you.
• Policies Applicable to Both Our Services & Our Website: This section lays out the parts of the WholeLot Privacy Policy that apply to both the Services and to the Website.

Below, we explain what information we collect on behalf of our Clients through the Services, and how we use it. We process information in a way that is relevant for the purpose for which it was collected as described below.

The WholeLot Services: Overview

WholeLot provides a variety of Services intended to help Clients bridge together the identity of their Users across a wide array of platforms, devices and applications. WholeLot helps Clients by connecting User interactions across siloed applications (email, SMS, web browsers, social platforms, native applications and others), so that Clients understand the multiple steps that a User took to ultimately complete a transaction with the business. This information is used by the Client to better inform marketing and product decisions as well as to provide improved user experiences by using their knowledge of continuity.

WholeLot has no direct relationship with Users. WholeLot’s Services are provided when WholeLot Clients install on their platforms “WholeLot Mechanisms” (including links, pixels, direct platform integrations, etc.) that capture the User action on behalf of the Client. By associating the information collected from these Mechanisms, WholeLot creates and stores identifiers unique to the WholeLot platform, and then uses a variety of techniques to connect these User actions and identifiers together. Some of these common connection techniques include a direct pass-through of identifiers from platform to platform, probabilistic matching using real time and historical parameters observed from each interaction, as well as using historical connections aggregated across the WholeLot platform. These techniques help Clients match Users with devices they use, including matching the same User across multiple devices.

The key use cases of WholeLot’s connection service are:

• To support Clients in implementing deep linking, which uses WholeLot’s connection information in real time to improve the User experience.
  • For example, if a User clicks on a link in an email or ad to a specific page in a Client’s app, WholeLot helps the User get to that page after they download the app.
• To report individualized and aggregated analytics metrics about the performance of the Client’s product and marketing initiatives to the Client directly.
  • For example, WholeLot can tell a Client how many Users that downloaded an app or that went to a specific page in an app came from clicking on a specific link, and provide corresponding advertising identifiers.
• To assist the Client by presenting real time, targeted messaging to their Users depending on past behavior observed across the tracked platforms with the purpose of driving more engagement to the Client.
  • For example, WholeLot can use WholeLot Mechanisms to provide a tailored message like a coupon code or special offer in your website to users who have interacted with your app and/or website in the past.

WholeLot requires that each Client commit to share with WholeLot only information that it has lawfully obtained (including, where necessary, by obtaining consent from Users, or from their parents for children under 13, or in certain jurisdictions, under 16), and that it has the right to share with WholeLot, and we strongly discourage Clients from sharing sensitive User information with us, as such information is not necessary for the provision of the Services.

In the charts below, we summarize the information collected automatically by the Services.

Information Collected By WholeLot Links and Pixels

WholeLot collects the following information from web URLs created by the Client and pixels placed on Client websites. Some of this information is considered personal data under applicable law (in other words, information that itself may identify a unique individual or can be linked back to an individual) (“ Personal Data”).

Information Collected by WholeLot Mobile App SDKs and Web SDKs

SDKs are Software Development Kits that include code that allows Clients to use the WholeLot Services. The WholeLot Mobile App SDKs and Web SDKs collect the following information when Clients use the SDKs in their mobile applications or websites, some of which is considered Personal Data under applicable law:

Data WholeLot collects through the Services is processed:

• to better understand how Users come to download certain apps, what types of apps are popular, or to infer that certain browsers and devices are operated by the same User based upon information collected across multiple non-affiliated apps and websites.
• to provide, maintain, optimize, research and improve the WholeLot Services.
• to fulfil Clients’ and prospective Clients’ requests for the Services including processing data at the Client’s direction and transferring User data to them. WholeLot does not control how Clients use information WholeLot shares with Clients and Users should read Clients’ Privacy Policies to understand how they use information they receive from WholeLot.
• to analyze and aggregate Client data with data of other Clients for WholeLot’s own internal business purposes and as permitted by applicable law.
• to create reports based on aggregated information, which is information that cannot be linked back to any individual person or Client, and share these reports with the public.

Our Clients use the information collected via the Services to improve their Users’ app experiences, customize their apps to Users, and to better understand their app marketing programs and how Users discover their apps. For example, a User may want to share information about a hotel that she found in a travel app with a friend. When that User sends her friend a WholeLot link to that hotel, after clicking the link the friend is brought directly to the content relating to that hotel within the app, rather than landing on the app’s homepage and having to search for the hotel. The travel app would also gain insights and analytics as to how the content is being shared from its app.

We require that our Clients utilize our Services responsibly and in accordance with our Terms & Conditions. WholeLot is not responsible for the data practices of any of our Clients through the Services or otherwise. Each Client’s practices are subject to each Client’s individual privacy policy. Users should review the privacy policy of each Client to understand how that Client uses User information collected through the Services.

WholeLot recognizes a number of consumer choice mechanisms.

Mobile Device Identifier: To exercise the mobile device privacy settings controls, please visit the privacy settings of your Android or iOS device and select “opt-out of interest based ads” (Android) or “limit ad tracking” (Apple iOS). WholeLot will only be able to collect information as permitted by these settings.

WholeLot’s Browser Cookie Opt-out: Our cookie-based opt-out can be accessed by clicking here. This will place a WholeLot opt-out cookie on your browser. Where WholeLot detects the presence of that opt-out cookie, we will no longer set cookies (beyond the opt-out cookie itself). Due to the nature of the Services, some functionality will be degraded or no longer work as a result. Cookie-based opt-outs must be performed on each device and browser that you wish to have opted-out. For example, if you have opted-out on your computer browser, that opt-out will not be effective on your mobile device.

Client App Opt-out Controls: WholeLot supports functionality to allow Clients to respect granular controls regarding User data privacy rights. Clients can flag in the WholeLot SDK that a particular User has requested that their data not be processed by WholeLot, in which case WholeLot will no longer process engagement data on behalf of the Client for that User.

WholeLot collects information from Website visitors ( “you” or “Website Users”) located at www.wholelot.co.uk ( the “Website”), which includes the dashboard provided to our Clients located at dashboard.wholelot.co.uk. The types of information we may collect and our privacy practices depend on the nature of the relationship you have with us and the requirements of applicable law. Below are the legal bases and some of the ways we collect information and how we use it. We process information in a way that is relevant for the purpose for which it was collected as described below.

What We Collect from Clients that Use the Website

For example, when Clients register to use our Services, we ask them to provide us with Personal Data, including first and last name and email address.

Dashboard Information: Information we collect from visitors who register for an account on our dashboard includes the following, some of which is considered Personal Data under applicable law

We also require Clients to set up a user ID and unique password for account security purposes. Clients must not share their passwords with anyone. Clients also have the option of adding other team members to their account. This account information enables us to set up an account for Clients, to provide the Services, and to otherwise manage Client accounts. We may also use this information to notify Clients about updates to our Services and provide them with promotional emails. We offer a mechanism to opt-out from promotional emails as described in the “Opt-out from Promotional Emails” section below.

Research/Survey Solicitations: From time to time, we may perform research (online and offline) via surveys. We may engage third-party service providers to conduct such surveys on our behalf. All survey responses are voluntary, and the information collected will be used for research and reporting purposes to help us better serve individuals by learning more about their needs and the quality of the products and services we provide. The survey responses may be utilized to determine the effectiveness of our Website, various types of communications, advertising campaigns and/or promotional activities.

After that User has been inactive for 30 days (or 90 days for specific attribution products), identifiers collected from that User will be deleted.

Usage activity logs, which are used for the purpose of reporting and analytics, are stored in an identifiable form for no more than 7 days, after which these logs are removed or pseudonymized. Any and all pseudonymized logs are deleted after 6 months.

Services: Because WholeLot is a service provider that processes data on behalf of its Clients, any requests relating to European Users’ exercise of their rights of access, rectification, erasure, or restriction under the European General Data Protection Regulation ( “GDPR”) must be provided to WholeLot by a Client. Clients can notify WholeLot of these requests here.

Moreover, WholeLot supports functionality to allow Clients to respect granular controls regarding User data privacy rights. Clients can flag in the WholeLot SDK that a particular User has requested that their data not be processed by WholeLot, in which case WholeLot will no longer process engagement data on behalf of the Client for that User.

Website: Website Users who are residents of the European Economic Area may seek confirmation regarding whether WholeLot is processing Personal Data about you, request access to such data, and ask that we correct, amend, or delete it where it is inaccurate or has been processed in violation of the Privacy Shield Principles. You can submit such requests starting on May 25, 2018 at /gdpr, which will be processed in line with applicable law. Although we make good faith efforts to provide you with access to your Personal Data, there may be circumstances in which we are unable to provide access, including but not limited to: where the information contains legal privilege, would compromise others’ privacy or other legitimate rights, where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to your privacy in the case in question, or where it is commercially proprietary. To protect your privacy, we will take commercially reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access to or making any changes to your Personal Data.

Services: The WholeLot Services are not directed to children. We require that Clients agree to either not send to us data relating to any children under 13 (or, in certain jurisdictions, under 16), unless they obtain all parental consents necessary under applicable law for collection of data from any such children prior to sending any data relating to such children to WholeLot.
