Privacy Policy
Maïka ("Maïka") strongly believes in protecting the integrity and privacy of personal
information gathered from our members and visitors to our web site. Since the protection of your
privacy is of great importance to us, we have created this privacy policy to communicate our
practices regarding the collection and dissemination of personal information that can be linked to a
specific individual.
This policy describes the types of information that we may collect from you when you access or use
our websites, applications and other online services (collectively, our "Services").
These policies do not extend to external sites linked to maika.coffee, websites of cafés or
businesses listed within Maïka, or other non-maika.coffee web site content. Please check with
these companies and sites for their policies regarding data privacy, including the use of "cookies."
Maïka is the Data Controller of your personal data that you provide, and a Data Processor of the
data we receive from other companies about you. The principles set out in this Privacy Notice apply
to all instances in which Maïka
receives your personal data as a Data Controller for the purposes described in this notice. Those
purposes are processing of data in order to participate in the various activities available on
Services or as mentioned below.
By using our website and applications you accept the terms of this Privacy Policy.
What information does Maïka collect?
We collect several types of information from and about users of our web site and applications:
by which you may be personally identified; and/or
about your internet connection, the equipment you use to access our Services.
Service usage details.
We collect this information:
directly from you when you voluntarily provide it to us; and/or
automatically as you navigate through our Services (information collected automatically may include
usage details, IP addresses and information collected through cookies).
The information we collect may include:
Your account information, as a simple user: the language of your browser/smartphone, the id
that
links your smartphone to the application, the review you give to cafés and your favorites places.
As an establishment owner, you might be asked to give your email address, first name, last
name and
professionnal address.
You may optionally provide us with some of this
information through third-party sign-in services such as Facebook and Google Plus.
In such cases, we store whatever information is made available to us through these sign-in services.
You also may provide information (such as ratings, reviews) to be published or displayed
on publicly accessible areas of our site and applications, or transmitted to other users
(collectively, "User Contributions"). Your User Contributions are posted on and transmitted to
others at your own risk. Please be aware that no security
measures are perfect or impenetrable. Additionally, we cannot control the actions of other users of
our Services with whom you may choose to share your User Contributions. Therefore, we cannot and do
not guarantee that your User Contributions will not be viewed by unauthorized persons. We may
display this information on the Services, share it with businesses, and further distribute it to a
wider audience through third party sites and services (such as Instagram, Facebook, Twitter,
YouTube, and other places for the purpose of promoting Maïka and our content). You should be
careful about revealing any sensitive details about yourself in such postings.
Precise Location Information and How to Opt Out
When you use one of our location-enabled services (for example, when you access Services from our
mobile app), we may collect and process information about your mobile device's GPS location
(including the latitude, longitude or altitude of your mobile device) to customize the Services with
location-based information and features (for example, to inform you about restaurants in your area
or applicable promotions). Some of these services require your personal data for the feature to work
and we may associate location data with your device ID and other information we hold about you. We
keep this data for no longer than is reasonably necessary for providing services to you. If you wish
to use the particular feature, you will be asked to consent to your data being used for this
purpose. You can withdraw your consent at any time by disabling the GPS or other location-tracking
functions on your device, provided your device allows you to do this. See your device manufacturer's
instructions for further details.
How does Maïka use the information gathered from the above sources?
Maïka performs statistical analyses of aggregate user behavior and characteristics in order to
measure interest in and use of various areas on our Services and to use such information to improve
our ability to serve you better.
We use the information you provide to us to enhance the functionality and improve the quality of our
Services, and to personalize your experience while using our Services. We also use this information
to display relevant advertising, provide support to you, communicate with you, and comply with our
legal obligations.

which may be linked to our services. We do not endorse or make any representations about third-party
websites or services. Our Privacy Policy does not cover the information you choose to provide to or
that is collected by any third party. We strongly encourage you to read such third-party privacy
policies.
Does Maïka rent, sell, or trade my information?
No, Maïka never rents, sells, or trades any information to other
organizations and commercial companies. Only Maïka will have access to your personal information.
