Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Quik Eco ("we", "our", "us") operates the Quik Eco platform — a satellite-based plastic waste detection and ESG reporting service. Our registered address and full company details are available on request via our contact page.

2. What data we collect

We collect information you provide directly to us and data generated through your use of our platform:

• Account information: name, email address, organisation name, and role.
• Usage data: pages visited, features used, session duration, and device type.
• Crowdsourced reports: location, photos, and descriptions submitted via the Quik Eco app.
• Payment information: processed securely by our payment provider; we do not store card details.
• Communications: messages you send to our team via email or the contact form.

3. How we use your data

We use your data to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Quik Eco platform and services.
• Generate satellite detection feeds, ESG reports, and campaign dashboards.
• Communicate with you about your account, product updates, and support queries.
• Process donations and transactions securely.
• Comply with legal obligations and prevent fraud or misuse.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

4. Cookies and tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, understand how our platform is used, and improve performance. You can control cookie preferences in your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect certain platform features.

We use privacy-focused analytics that do not share your data with advertising networks.

5. Data sharing

We share data only in limited circumstances:

• With service providers (hosting, analytics, payments) who process data on our behalf under strict agreements.
• With NGO and campaign partners — only aggregated, anonymised detection data, never personal data.
• When required by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Quik Eco or others.

6. Data retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. You may request deletion of your account and associated personal data at any time by contacting us. Aggregated, anonymised environmental data is retained indefinitely as part of our scientific dataset.

7. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Request deletion of your personal data ("right to be forgotten").
• Object to or restrict processing in certain circumstances.
• Data portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at our contact page

8. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including TLS encryption in transit, encrypted storage at rest, and regular security audits. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; we do our utmost to protect your data but cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by email or by posting a notice on our platform. The "last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the most recent version.
