Airmine AS (“Airmine”, “We”, “Us”, “Our”) take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains our practices in connection with information that we collect through the Apps, Websites and Services. By downloading, accessing or using the App, Websites or Services, or providing information to us in connection with the Apps, Websites or Services, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

Information we collect from you

When you activate location services in the app

The Services include features that require the collection of specific location data. We use this to give you pollen risk information for areas near you.

We only collect this type of data when you activate a location feature. We stop collecting this type of data when you deactivate the feature. We do not store this data.

When you add favourites in the app

We use these locations to give you information about the pollen risk in a specific area. We store the locations in our databases. If you remove a favourite location in the app, we stop storing it.

When you search for locations in the app

We store the location for your five recent searches. We use this to show you your recent search history in the app.

When you fill out surveys

We store the information you provide in surveys. Unless consent is explicitly given, this information is not linked to individual users.

Other settings in the app

We collect your timezone and use this for sending push notifications tailored to local time zones. We store the language used in the app and use this to show you the correct version of the app. We store the region you have selected in the app, to show you the corresponding pollen information.

Analytical data

We use different tools to track the use of our apps and websites, such as the number of users per day from a specific region. This information gives us valuable information such as the most popular pages and on what times Airmine’s services are being used the most.

How we keep your data secure

We strive to keep your personal information safe and have implemented reasonable security measures consistent with accepted practices to protect the confidentiality of your personal information and to limit access to it.
