Welcome to the Gypsy Guide Privacy Policy (the “Policy”). This Policy is incorporated in and forms a part of the Gypsy Guide Terms of Service (the “Agreement”) between GPS Tour Guide Inc. (“Gypsy Guide”, “us”, “we” or “our”), the owner and operator of www.gypsyguide.com (the “Site”) and the Gypsy Guide mobile applications (“Apps”), and you (“you” or “your” or “user(s)”), a user of the Site and/or Apps (together, the “Services”). The Agreement can be found here for reference www.gypsyguide.com/Terms-of-Service/. The Agreement, which incorporates this Policy, governs your use of the Services. For certainty, this Policy is subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, and the terms and conditions therein apply hereto.

 

Your privacy is important to us. This Policy is provided to explain how we collect, use, share and store your Personal Information.

IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT USE, ACCESS OR DOWNLOAD ANY OF THE SERVICES.

 

For the purposes of this Policy, “Personal Information” is information that, either alone or in combination with other information collected, identifies an individual. When we combine other information (i.e. information that does not, on its own, identify an individual) with Personal Information, we treat the combined information as Personal Information, as long as such combination persists.
