Triko Privacy Policy

Last updated May 28, 2024

This privacy notice for Trikorp Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our“), describes how and why we might collect, store, use, and/or share (“process“) your information when you use our services (“Services“), such as when you:

  • Visit our website at https://triko.co/, or any website of ours that links to this privacy notice
  • Download and use our mobile application (Triko ), or any other application of ours that links to this privacy notice
  • Engage with us in other related ways, including any sales, marketing, or events

Triko’s groundbreaking marketplace allows users to post live auctions for their service needs while maintaining a stringent commitment to user privacy. The distinctive feature of our platform is that users can keep their contact information private and undisclosed to all service providers. This means that, during the live auction process, users can interact with service providers without revealing personal contact details. Controlled Client Communication A key element of our privacy commitment is that only the service provider selected as the winner by the user, and subsequently declared the winner of the service auction, will have the privilege to contact the client. This ensures that the user has full control over who can reach out to them, eliminating any unwarranted or unsolicited communications from service providers. Once an auction is closed, and a winner is selected, the exclusive communication channel is established between the client and the chosen service provider. Limited Access for Service Providers It’s important to reiterate that no other service provider, apart from the declared winner, will have access to the client’s contact information. This restriction persists even after the auction concludes.

 

Questions or concerns? Reading this privacy notice will help you understand your privacy rights and choices. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our Services. If you still have any questions or concerns, please contact us at info@triko.co.

Accordingly, we do not make any guarantee regarding any such third parties, and we will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by the use of such third-party websites, services, or applications.

In Short: We may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.

 

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to gather information when you interact with our Services. Some online tracking technologies help us maintain the security of our Services and your account, prevent crashes, fix bugs, save your preferences, and assist with basic site functions.

 

 

We also permit third parties and service providers to use online tracking technologies on our Services for analytics and advertising, including to help manage and display advertisements, to tailor advertisements to your interests, or to send abandoned shopping cart reminders (depending on your communication preferences). The third parties and service providers use their technology to provide advertising about products and services tailored to your interests which may appear either on our Services or on other websites.

 

To the extent these online tracking technologies are deemed to be a “sale”/”sharing” (which includes targeted advertising, as defined under the applicable laws) under applicable US state laws, you can opt out of these online tracking technologies by submitting a request as described below under section “DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?

6. HOW DO WE HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL LOGINS?

 

In Short: If you choose to register or log in to our Services using a social media account, we may have access to certain information about you.

 

Our Services offer you the ability to register and log in using your third-party social media account details (like your Facebook or X logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider. The profile information we receive may vary depending on the social media provider concerned, but will often include your name, email address, friends list, and profile picture, as well as other information you choose to make public on such a social media platform.

 

We will use the information we receive only for the purposes that are described in this privacy notice or that are otherwise made clear to you on the relevant Services. Please note that we do not control, and are not responsible for, other uses of your personal information by your third-party social media provider.

7. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

 

In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law.

 

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us keeping your personal information for longer than twelve (12) months past the termination of the user’s account .

 

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

8. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

 

In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.

 

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

 

9. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

 

In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to minors.

 

Users must be 18 years or older to use the service.

10. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

 

In Short:  You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time, depending on your country, province, or state of residence.

 

Withdrawing your consent: If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?” below.

 

However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

 

Opting out of marketing and promotional communications: You can unsubscribe from our marketing and promotional communications at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send, or by contacting us using the details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?” below. You will then be removed from the marketing lists. However, we may still communicate with you — for example, to send you service-related messages that are necessary for the administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.

 

Account Information

 

If you would at any time like to review or change the information in your account or terminate your account, you can:

  • Log in to your account settings and update your user account.
  • Contact us using the contact information provided.

 

Upon your request to terminate your account, we will deactivate or delete your account and information from our active databases.

Cookies and similar technologies: Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our Services. You may also opt out of interest-based advertising by advertisers on our Services. 

 

If you have questions or comments about your privacy rights, you may email us at info@triko.co.

11. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

 

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.

 

California law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not respond to them at this time.

12. DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?

 

In Short: If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, or Virginia, you may have the right to request access to and receive details about the personal information we maintain about you and how we have processed it, correct inaccuracies, get a copy of, or delete your personal information.

13. LIVE AUCTIONS AND CONFIDENTIALITY

 

Triko’s groundbreaking marketplace allows users to post live auctions for their service needs while maintaining a stringent commitment to user privacy. The distinctive feature of our platform is that users can keep their contact information private and undisclosed to all service providers. This means that, during the live auction process, users can interact with service providers without revealing personal contact details. Controlled Client Communication A key element of our privacy commitment is that only the service provider selected as the winner by the user, and subsequently declared the winner of the service auction, will have the privilege to contact the client. This ensures that the user has full control over who can reach out to them, eliminating any unwarranted or unsolicited communications from service providers. Once an auction is closed, and a winner is selected, the exclusive communication channel is established between the client and the chosen service provider. Limited Access for Service Providers It’s important to reiterate that no other service provider, apart from the declared winner, will have access to the client’s contact information. This restriction persists even after the auction concludes. Triko’s commitment to user privacy extends beyond the auction phase, creating a secure and controlled environment for users to manage their service provider interactions. Non-Disclosure of User Information Triko takes a definitive stance on the non-disclosure of user information. Under no circumstances does Triko sell, share, or exchange user information with any external entities. User data is treated with the utmost confidentiality and is used exclusively for internal purposes. This ensures that user information remains protected and is not exploited for external gains. Internal Use for Enhancement The internal use of user information is solely for the purpose of enhancing the Triko experience. By analyzing user behavior and preferences internally, we aim to continually improve our platform, making it more user-friendly and efficient. This process is conducted with a strict adherence to privacy principles, ensuring that user identities and sensitive information are never compromised. Continuous Improvement and User Experience Triko is committed to an ongoing process of refining and enhancing our services. User feedback, combined with data analytics derived from internal usage, plays a crucial role in this continuous improvement. The Privacy Policy is designed to reassure users that their information is a valuable asset used exclusively for the betterment of the Triko platform. In essence, this clause of the Privacy Policy underscores our commitment to pioneering a secure and confidential marketplace. Users can engage in live auctions with the assurance that their privacy is preserved, and their information is handled responsibly, contributing to a positive and secure user experience on the Triko platform.
