  • discover businesses in the beauty and hospitality industries;
  • view information about participating businesses;
  • see queue or availability information where provided by a business;
  • join a queue remotely;

3. Personal data we collect

Depending on how you use SlickerQ, we may collect the following categories of personal data.

Account and identity information

This may include:

  • your name;
  • email address;
  • account details; and
  • information associated with your SlickerQ account.

If you enable location services, SlickerQ may collect location information from your device.

We may use location information to:

  • show businesses near you;
  • help you discover participating businesses;
  • provide location-based functionality;
  • improve the relevance of search results; and
  • support features of the SlickerQ Service that require your location.

You can control location permissions through your device settings. Some SlickerQ features may not work correctly if location access is disabled.

We will only use precise location information where it is necessary for the relevant feature and where permitted by applicable law.

5. Our legal bases for processing

Under the GDPR, we rely on one or more lawful bases depending on the processing activity.

Performance of a contract

We may process your personal data where this is necessary to provide SlickerQ to you or perform a contract with you.

For example, this may include:

  • creating your account;
  • managing your queue position;
  • processing your orders;
  • administering payments; and
  • providing services you have requested.

Legitimate interests

We may process personal data where this is necessary for our legitimate interests, provided that those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms. This may include:

  • maintaining and improving SlickerQ;
  • preventing fraud and misuse;
  • protecting our systems;
  • analysing service performance;
  • managing our business; and
  • communicating with users about the Service.

Legal obligations

We may process personal data where necessary to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

Consent

Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before processing personal data for particular purposes, such as certain marketing or analytics activities.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

6. Who we share personal data with

We may share personal data with service providers that help us operate SlickerQ.

These may include:

  • Firebase — for application infrastructure, authentication, notifications, analytics or related technical services;
  • Google Analytics — for analytics and understanding how the Service is used;
  • Stripe — for payment processing and related payment services;
  • Supabase — for database, authentication, storage or related infrastructure services;
  • Apple — where Apple Pay or Apple platform services are used;
  • Google — where Google Pay or Google platform services are used;
  • hosting, security, communications and technical service providers; and
  • professional advisers, regulators, law enforcement authorities or other parties where disclosure is required or permitted by law.

We may also share relevant information with participating businesses where this is necessary to provide the service you requested.

For example, where you join a queue at a participating business, that business may need information necessary to manage your place in the queue and provide the relevant service.

We do not permit third parties to use your personal data for purposes unrelated to the services they provide to SlickerQ unless otherwise permitted by law.

7. International transfers

Some of our service providers may process personal data outside the European Economic Area ("EEA").

Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we will take appropriate steps required by applicable data protection law to protect the information, which may include relying on an adequacy decision or appropriate contractual safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.

8. How long we keep your information

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Service, maintain business and financial records, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements and comply with legal obligations.

Different categories of information may be retained for different periods.

For example:

  • account information may be retained while your account remains active and for a reasonable period afterwards;
  • transaction and payment records may be retained for as long as required by applicable accounting, tax or legal requirements;
  • queue and order information may be retained for operational, customer-service and record-keeping purposes; and
  • analytics information may be retained according to the configuration and retention settings of the relevant analytics services.

9. Marketing communications

Where permitted by law, SlickerQ may send you information about our services, features, offers or other relevant updates.

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe mechanism included in the communication.

You may also manage push notification permissions through your device settings.

Service and transactional notifications, such as information about a queue you have joined or an order you have placed, may still be sent where they are necessary to provide the Service.

10. Location permissions

SlickerQ uses device location functionality where you permit it.

You can enable or disable location permissions through your device settings.

If you disable location access, certain location-based features may not be available or may have reduced functionality.

We will not use location information for a purpose that is incompatible with the purpose for which it was collected.

11. Analytics and tracking technologies

SlickerQ may use analytics and similar technologies to understand how the Service is used.

Where applicable law requires consent before analytics or other non-essential tracking technologies are used, SlickerQ will request that consent before using those technologies.

You should be provided with clear information about the technologies used and their purposes, and where consent is required, you should be able to withdraw or change that consent.

  • access your personal data;
  • request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
  • request deletion of your personal data;
  • request restriction of processing;

[YOU SHOULD CONFIRM YOUR MINIMUM AGE POLICY BEFORE PUBLISHING THIS SECTION.]

15. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. However, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.

16. Third-party services

SlickerQ relies on third-party service providers to provide certain functionality.

Those providers may process personal data on our behalf or, depending on the service and circumstances, act as independent controllers.

Their processing may be subject to their own privacy policies and terms.

Relevant providers include Firebase, Google Analytics, Stripe, Supabase, Apple and Google.
