Last updated: 1.11.2025

This Cookie Policy explains how ITIEW (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website itiew.com (the “Site”) and related services. This Policy applies to all users of the Site, including but not limited to users in the European Union (EU/EEA), United Kingdom (UK), United States (USA), South‑East Asia, Latin America (including Brazil), Arab countries, and other international jurisdictions.

1. Definitions & Scope

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website or use an app. They are widely used to make websites work or to work more efficiently, and to provide information to the owners of the site.

Personal Data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and other privacy laws, some cookies and tracking technologies constitute Personal Data.

This Policy describes how we use cookies, how you can control them, your rights, and particularly how we handle user location and tracking data when you optionally enable geolocation/tracking features.

2. Why We Use Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

• Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies: These are required for the operation of the Site and cannot be disabled in our systems. They include session cookies, CSRF tokens, etc.
• Performance & Analytics Cookies: To measure and analyse how users use the Site, so we can improve our service and experiences.
• Functional Cookies: To remember your preferences, such as language, region, and other interface settings.
• Tracking & Geolocation Cookies: If you choose to enable geolocation live tracking features, we may collect your approximate or precise location data, movement, and device identifiers for the duration of your session and for the purposes disclosed — only with your explicit consent.
• Advertising / Marketing Cookies: To deliver relevant adverts and to measure their effectiveness, including third‑party networks and partners.

3. What Location & Live Tracking Features Involve

When you enable geolocation or live‑tracking features on the Site, you understand and agree that:

• Your device’s location (latitude/longitude), movement data and related identifiers may be collected and processed by us and/or our service providers for the purpose of delivering the map, tour and tracking services that you have expressly requested.
• Location data will only be processed once you give clear, affirmative consent (opt‑in). You can withdraw consent at any time by disabling the feature in your account settings or device settings.
• We will not sell your location or tracking data to any third parties. We only share data with service providers who perform services on our behalf, under contractual obligations, for the purposes you requested.
• We will retain location/tracking data only to the extent necessary, in accordance with applicable law and our retention policy, and then securely delete or anonymise it.

We require our providers to implement appropriate security measures and restrict their use of your data to the agreed purpose.

8. International Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your home jurisdiction. When this occurs, we ensure that such transfers comply with applicable laws, including the EU’s GDPR, by using standard contractual clauses or other safeguards as required.

We retain cookie and tracking data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described, or as required by law. For instance, location/tracking session data is retained for the duration of your session and for a short period thereafter (e.g., up to 90 days) unless you request deletion or disable the feature earlier.
