Privacy Policy

Willuwalk service is provided by Wanlig OÜ. This privacy policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use and store it. For questions or comments about the privacy policy, please contact us at hello@willuwalk.app.

Willuwalk collects your data, including data that directly or indirectly identifies you. Here is what personal data we collect and why:

  • We collect general account information such as your name, email address, and profile picture, which provide access to our service.
  • We also ask you to provide your child/children’s age(s), interests, language skills, and Facebook profile URL to make it easier to find the most suitable walking companion from the active users.
  • We use your contact information to respond to your inquiries and comments and to send you updates about the application. If you do not wish to receive updates to your email address, you can always opt out from the application settings.

Additionally, we collect and process your location data when using our service. We track your device’s location from the moment you start walking by pressing the “Start” button until you finish the walk by swiping the “Finish” button. To measure the distance walked, we need to store the tracked location data. If you wish to stop device location tracking, you will not be able to use the service. To prioritize the display of closest users in the profile swipe function Willuwalk mobile app registers user’s location upon opening the application.

In order to provide the option to chat with other users, we also need to collect the content of conversations. We do not use the content of conversations for any purpose other than facilitating communication between registered users. The content of conversations is not disclosed to third parties unless required by applicable law.

We use your mobile phone ID number to send you notifications regarding activities related to the mobile app (e.g., sending invitations, chat messages, marking meeting points, etc.). To expedite error detection and correction, we also collect information about your phone model and operating system.

Willuwalk asks you to register your account and log into the application using your accounts created with third-party services such as Facebook, Apple, and Google (hereinafter referred to as “third-party accounts”).

These data are collected by the third-party service provider, and the data is shared with Willuwalk according to their privacy policy. You can control the data shared by these sources by using the privacy settings in your third-party account.
