COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

Voyo products use different methods to connect your car to the cloud including a Bluetooth connection provided by a user’s cell phone or a cellular modem embedded in the Voyo unit. The Voyo App allows a user to lock/unlock car doors, detect malfunctions, send alerts to other users, and increases your car’s security and fuel efficiency. We collect and store Personal Information that you provide voluntarily or we collect automatically when using our Services.  Personal Information is information that can identify you as a specific individual (“Personal Information”).  In order to provide these valuable services, Voyo collects the following types of information about you, your car and your driving habits in the following ways:

Information You Provide Directly:  You may choose to provide us with information, including Personal Information, through registration and/or use of our Services, such as:

  • Contact information, such as your name, address, telephone number and email address.
  • Payment information, such as your credit card details, which you provide to our third-party processor rather than Voyo, except in the case of refunds.
  • Personal Information in communications and other content you submit or share, such as photographs and video clips.
  • Information about activities and purchases related to your vehicle such as service performed, battery replacement, or other data points relevant to the maintenance of the vehicle.

Information We Collect Automatically:  We also may receive, record, share and store certain information, which may be Personal Information, about you as well as your computer, mobile device, and your vehicle’s OBD II port automatically. Automatically collected information may include:

  • Vehicle information, such as your VIN number, that may be associated with you.
  • Geolocation information.
  • The type of device(s) you use and the related operating system(s).
  • Identification details of your device (e.g., unique device identifier).

  • Information about the content you view and the features you access on our Services that we collect using cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies.
  • Information collected by sensors included in the Voyo controller provided to you when you purchased the Services and related Company or third-party hardware.
  • PIDs (i.e. parameter ID data, such as brake pressure, steering wheel angle or accelerator pressure).
  • Information collected in conjunction with the OBD-II port, such as odometer, speed, braking and acceleration metrics, engine start/stop and idle times, battery voltage levels, diagnostic codes, engine pre-check results, weather conditions (e.g. temperature, barometer), other codes related to the operation and performance, and other operating parameter data specific to the make/model of the vehicle.

Personal Information does not include anonymized, aggregate or statistical information from which such identification cannot be reconstituted.  We may de-identify Personal Information, including information about your driving habits that we have collected from you through the Site, the App, the OBD-II port, or our other Services and combine it with de-identified information about other users, information from third parties, and/or publicly available information.

USE OF INFORMATION

We use the information we collect and receive, including Personal Information, for the following general purposes:

  • To provide you with access to our Services;

  • For any other purpose disclosed to you at the time we collect the information, or otherwise with your consent.

SHARING OF INFORMATION

We consider your Personal Information and your other information to be a vital part of our relationship with you.  Voyo will not rent, sell, or share your personal information with other people or nonaffiliated companies except to provide products or services that you have requested, unless we have your permission or as provided in this Policy. There are, however, certain circumstances in which we may share your information with certain third parties without further notice to you, as set forth below:

Service Providers: Voyo may share your information, including some Personal Information, with entities that provide services to us, including companies that provide web and other analytics, data processing, advertising, e-mail distribution, payment processing, order fulfillment, and other services. When we employ another entity to perform a function of this nature, we only provide them with the information they need to perform their specific function.

Groups You Create or Join: At your request, we may share profile information and information about your geolocation and driving habits with members of groups you create or join. You decide whether this information is shared and with whom.  If you have joined a group, the group creator may add new members and may change whether you share location information with other members after you have joined the group.  It is your responsibility to monitor these activities.  The group administrator controls the sharing.  If you do not want such sharing to occur, you should communicate with the group administrator.

Community Forum: If you submit feedback or ideas through our community forum on the site and/or app, any information that you submit, including Personal Information, will be included in your post and will be public.  Your name will be included in any posts that you make to the Community Forum.

Other Parties When Required by Law or as Necessary to Protect Our Services: There may be instances when we disclose your information to other parties in order to:  (i) protect and defend legal rights of Voyo, its affiliates, and users of our Services; (ii) protect the safety and security of users of our Services; (iii) prevent fraud (or other risk management purposes); or (iv) comply with or respond to law or legal process or a request for cooperation by a government entity.

Other Parties in Connection with Certain Business Transfers:  If we make a sale, donation, or transfer of assets, or are otherwise involved in a corporate merger, transfer, reorganization, dissolution or similar event, we may transfer your information to one or more third parties as part of that transaction.

Other Parties:  In addition to the sharing described in this Privacy Policy, we may share information about you with other third parties, including for the purpose of allowing those third parties to advertise or provide you with information about their products and services, evaluate the data, or develop services or products.  Types of information collected and shared may include information relevant to vehicle service and repair in order to provide improved diagnostic data and offering of related promotional services. Other circumstances in which your information, including Personal Information, may be shared include for use by third-party apps and programs that use information provided by Voyo, including for advertising.

Payment Processors:  Our payment processing partners collect your voluntarily provided payment card information necessary to process your payment. 

Security and Fraud Prevention Consultants:  We may share your information with these consultants for the purpose of detecting security incidents, protecting against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, and prosecuting those responsible for that activity.

Hosting, Technology and Communications Providers; Fulfillment Providers; Manufacturing Partners; Data Storage Providers; User Testing Service Providers; Analytics Providers; Staff Augmentation Personnel:  We may provide personal information to these parties in order to perform:

  • operational services (such as hosting, billing, fulfillment, data storage, security, web service analytics) and/or to make certain services, features or functionality available to our users;
  • debugging to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;
  • services on our behalf, including maintaining or servicing accounts, providing customer service, processing or fulfilling orders and transactions, verifying customer information, processing payments, providing advertising or marketing services, providing analytics services (including the recording, reproduction and sharing of your communications with us in order to enhance these services or our analytics that support such enhancements), or providing similar services on behalf of the business or service provider;
  • internal research and user testing for technological development and demonstration of our Services; or
  • activities to verify or maintain the quality or safety of our services.

YOUR CHOICES

After your initial registration and activation of the Device, you may change settings within the App to limit the types of Personal Information shared.  If you choose to restrict the Personal Information you provide, you may not be able to use certain Services. You may choose to restrict the Personal Information you send to the Voyomotive Cloud within Settings; however, the Voyomotive Cloud will still send information to the Company needed to verify account information, information about your vehicle needed for Voyo to operate on your model of vehicle and to provide necessary updates to system software used by Voyo hardware and the Voyo app.  You may also disable our ability to use cookies by using the cookie controls in your web browser. However, if you do disable cookies, we will not be able to provide you with some features of our Services.

Phone-Based Location Data:  If you are a consumer, you may choose to turn off phone location data collection either within the App or within your phone’s Location Services settings.  This may disable any features that use this data, such as location sharing. If you are a business customer, GPS data may not be disabled on a cellular Device.

Car Location Data:  You can disable the collection of car location data by unplugging the Voyo device from the car.  Expectedly, this disables all car-related capabilities within the service but can be resumed when you choose to reconnect the device.

Your Voyo Account Information:  Where applicable, you may amend your preferences by updating your account information or settings within your Voyo authenticated account. You may unsubscribe from marketing-oriented emails by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link in emails you receive from Voyo.

Interest-Based Advertising:  Data about your use of Services may be collected by the Company for use in providing advertising, including by third parties, tailored to your individual interests.

A Note About Email Marketing:  By creating an account or purchasing our products, you may be agreeing to receive email messages. These messages could include changes to features of our service and additional email messages about our products, services and promotions that we feel may be of interest to you. If you no longer wish to receive these types of promotional communications from us, you may (i) select the unsubscribe link which is present in each email, (ii) contact customer service at any time, or (iii) email support@voyomotice.com. Opting out may prevent you from receiving email messages regarding special offers, improvements, or other updates from Voyo.

CHILDREN’S INFORMATION

Voyo does not knowingly collect or store Personal Information about children under the age of 13.  We encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s Internet usage and to instruct their children not to provide Personal Information on the Internet without their permission.  If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 has provided Personal Information through our Services, please contact us and we will endeavor to delete that information from our databases.

Contractual Necessity: We process the following categories of Personal Data as a matter of “contractual necessity”, meaning that we need to process the data to provide you with the Service, for example to create your account, complete your order, ship your product, and provide customer support.

Other Processing Grounds: From time to time we may also need to process Personal Data to comply with a legal obligation, if it is necessary to protect the vital interests of you or other data subjects, or if it is necessary for a task carried out in the public interest.  You have certain rights with respect to your Personal Data, including those set forth below. For more information about these rights, or to submit a request, please email support@voyomotive.com or write to us at 1058 N. Tamiami Trail, suite 108-137, Sarasota, FL 34236; Attention: Privacy. Please note that in some circumstances, we may not be able to fully comply with your request, such as if it is frivolous or extremely impractical, if it jeopardizes the rights of others, or if it is not required by law, but in those circumstances, we will still respond to notify you of such a decision. In some cases, we may also need to you to provide us with additional information, which may include Personal Data, if necessary to verify your identity and the nature of your request.

Access: You can request more information about the Personal Data we hold about you and request a copy of such Personal Data. You can also access certain of your Personal Data by reviewing the “my account” section of our website.

Rectification: If you believe that any Personal Data we are holding about you is incorrect or incomplete, you can request that we correct or supplement such data. You can also correct some of this information directly through our “my account” feature.

Erasure: You can request that we erase some or all of your Personal Data from our systems.

Withdrawal of Consent: If we are processing your Personal Data based on your consent (as indicated at the time of collection of such data), you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
