Privacy Policy

At Koyyo, we are committed to protecting your personal information and handling it with complete transparency.

This data privacy policy explains how we collect, use, store, and safeguard your data when you visit our website or use our services.

Our approach to GDPR compliance underpins every aspect of how we collect, store and manage personal data responsibly.

About Us and This Website

Our website address is https://koyyo.co/new.

We operate as a data controller responsible for all personal information collected through this website. Our dedication to GDPR compliance means we only process personal data on a lawful basis and remain transparent about how your information is used. If you have any questions, connect with us by email at [email address].

User Comments and Spam Prevention

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information entered in the comments form, together with the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string, solely to assist with spam detection. An anonymised hash of your email address may also be shared with the Gravatar service to check whether you are a registered user. Their privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once a comment is approved, your profile picture may be displayed publicly alongside it.

Uploaded Images and Metadata

If you upload images to our website, please ensure they do not contain embedded metadata such as EXIF GPS coordinates. Other visitors can download uploaded images and extract any geographical information held within them. We recommend removing such metadata from your files before uploading, as digital images can carry precise data privacy details that are easily accessible to anyone who downloads them.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to improve your experience and ensure our platform operates correctly. If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website URL in cookies for your convenience. These cookies last for one year. A temporary cookie is also set on the login page to confirm your browser accepts cookies; it holds no personal data and is removed when your session ends. Upon logging in, cookies are set to retain your credentials and display preferences. Login cookies last two days; screen option cookies last one year. Selecting "Remember Me" extends your session to two weeks. Logging out removes all login cookies. If you edit or publish an article, a short-lived cookie records the relevant post ID and expires after one day.</

External and Embedded Content

Pages on our site may contain embedded content from external sources such as videos, images, and articles. This content behaves exactly as if you had visited those third-party websites directly. Those sites may collect data about you, use their own cookies, and track your interaction with their content, including where you are logged into an account on their platform. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any relevant third parties.

How We Share Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal data. In limited circumstances, we may share data with trusted service providers who support our website operations, all of whom are bound by data processing agreements consistent with our GDPR compliance obligations. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email as a security measure.

Our Commitment to Employee Data Protection

As a workforce management technology provider, we recognise that strong employee data protection is fundamental to client trust. Our platform processes workforce attendance and scheduling data, and we take this responsibility seriously at every level. Data collected through our tools is processed lawfully, stored securely, and retained only for as long as necessary. We also support our business clients in fulfilling their own data protection obligations.

Data Retention Periods

Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely so that we can recognise and automatically approve follow-up comments. For registered users, we store the personal information provided in their profiles. All users may view, amend, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username. Website administrators may also access and update this information where required.

Your Data Protection Rights

If you have an account on this site or have previously left a comment, you have the right to request an exported copy of all personal data we hold about you, as well as the right to request its deletion. Please note that deletion requests do not cover data we are legally obliged to retain. To exercise your rights, connect with us by email at [email address].

Data Destination and Spam Filtering

Visitor comments may be screened through an automated spam detection service to help maintain a safe and trustworthy environment on our website. We ensure that any service used for this purpose handles your data responsibly and in line with our GDPR compliance commitments. Koyyo will always be transparent about where your data is sent and why.

Policy Updates

This Privacy Policy is reviewed periodically and updated as needed to reflect changes in our practices or legal obligations. Any revisions will be published on this page. We encourage you to check back regularly to stay informed about how we uphold this data privacy policy and safeguard your information.
