Interpretation and Definitions
When you read this privacy policy, it helps to be on the same page—literally and figuratively. Words can be tricky, and legal phrases can get a bit overwhelming. So, in this section, we’re simply laying out what certain terms mean when we use them here at Kronometree.
We want this document to be easy to understand. No complicated jargon or unnecessary formality—just clear explanations so you don’t feel lost in a sea of legal talk. This section isn’t just for lawyers; it’s for everyday people who care about how their information is being used.
Understanding the meaning behind the words we use helps you grasp what we actually do with your data, how we store it, and your rights when browsing or using our website. When we say things like “Service” or “Personal Data,” we want you to know exactly what that refers to without having to Google it.
The idea here is simple: we don’t want to confuse or mislead anyone. This section is a kind of mini-dictionary for the rest of the policy. We believe trust starts with clarity, and we’re trying our best to offer just that.
Now, let’s break down a couple of those terms in more detail…
Interpretation
Here’s the deal: words matter. And when we say something like “Company” or “You,” we’re referring to specific things. In this policy, “Company” means Kronometree (that’s us), and “You” means you—the user, the visitor, the person looking for the next big mall to explore.
This part is all about setting the stage. We define terms so there’s no misunderstanding about who we are or what we’re talking about. So when we say “Website,” we’re referring to Kronometree. When we talk about “Service,” it means everything we offer through our site—from mall listings and maps to tools and affiliate suggestions.
Think of this section like the opening credits of a movie. You need to know who’s who before the real story unfolds.
Definitions
Alright, now for the actual list. These are a few of the key definitions that pop up throughout the rest of this Privacy Policy. Here’s what we mean when we say:
- Personal Data – Information that identifies you directly or indirectly. Could be your name, email, or even IP address if it links back to you.
- Usage Data – Stuff collected automatically when you use the site, like your browser type or how long you stayed on a page.
- Cookies – Tiny files that help the website remember things, like your location or what malls you looked at.
- Service – Everything you experience on Kronometree, from browsing to clicking on affiliate links.
It’s kind of boring, we know—but it’s necessary to keep things clear. These definitions help guide the rest of the policy so you never feel like you’re reading a different language.
Collecting and Using Your Personal Data
At Kronometree, we believe in being transparent—especially when it comes to your personal data. You’re not just a number visiting a website; you’re a person looking to explore malls, deals, and local shopping experiences. And if you share any kind of info with us—even something as simple as your location or email—we want you to know how and why it’s collected.
We don’t collect everything under the sun. In fact, we keep it minimal. Some data, like your location (used to help show nearby malls), is used to personalize your visit. Other types, like usage or browser data, help us understand how people interact with the site so we can improve it.
We might also use cookies or tracking technologies (more on that below), but we’re not here to stalk anyone. We just want to make your time on the site smoother and more relevant. Think of it like a shopkeeper remembering your favorite store—only it’s the website doing the remembering.
The big thing to know: we only collect what we need, we use it responsibly, and we never sell your data. Ever.
Now let’s break down the kinds of data we may collect from you.
Types of Data Collected
The data we collect at Kronometree falls into two main categories: Personal Data and Usage Data.
Personal Data might include your name, email address, or location—usually collected only when you fill out a form, subscribe to a newsletter, or send us a message. We’re not asking for your phone number, credit card, or anything invasive.
Usage Data, on the other hand, is automatically collected when you visit our site. This includes things like which malls you looked at, how long you stayed on a page, or what device you were using. It’s not tied to your name or identity—it just helps us improve your browsing experience.
We only collect what’s needed to serve you better. No fluff, no sneaky stuff. Just useful, relevant information that helps make your visit to Kronometree.com smooth and personalized.
Usage Data is Collected Automatically When Using the Service
Every time you browse Kronometree, our system collects a bit of behind-the-scenes data—nothing personal, just the kind of things that help the website function and adapt.
Let’s say you search for malls in Mumbai. Our system might log that search, note what kind of device you’re using (mobile, tablet, laptop), and how long you stayed on the results page. This helps us know which cities people are most interested in and which parts of the site are useful—or need fixing.
We also track things like your browser type, your IP address (to a certain extent—it’s anonymized), and referral sources (like if you came from Google or clicked from another site).
It’s all automatic. You don’t have to do anything for this to happen—it’s just a part of how websites work these days. But we make sure this data is not used to identify you personally. We’re not trying to paint a personal profile. We’re just using patterns to improve the user experience.
The goal is simple: to make sure that Kronometree loads fast, shows you relevant malls, and works across all devices. That’s it. No hidden agenda.
Tracking Technologies and Cookies
Ah yes—cookies. Not the chocolate chip kind, sadly. These cookies are small data files stored on your browser that help our website “remember” you. And before you get weirded out, don’t worry—they’re used for good reasons.
Cookies help us understand what malls you looked at, whether you’re a returning visitor, and what your general location might be (so we can show you nearby shopping hubs). They’re also handy for speeding things up, saving your preferences, or remembering your city.
We also use some third-party cookies from tools like Google Analytics or affiliate programs. These help track general behaviors—like what pages get the most views or what mall listings are clicked the most.
The good news? You’re in control. You can clear or block cookies from your browser settings anytime. That might make the site slightly less personalized, but it won’t stop it from working.
We don’t use cookies to stalk, profile, or trick you. They’re just tools to improve the experience of using Kronometree—that’s it.
Use of Your Personal Data
At Kronometree, we use your data to make your experience smoother—like helping you find nearby malls or replying to your questions. We don’t collect more than we need, and we don’t sell your info. Ever. Some data helps us improve the site, some lets us respond when you contact us, and some is used for affiliate tracking (without knowing who you are). Simple as that.
Retention of Your Personal Data
We keep your info only as long as we need it. If you send us a message, we hold onto your email just long enough to respond. After that? It’s either deleted or securely stored. Analytics data might stick around a bit longer, but it’s anonymous. You can always ask us to delete your info—we’re happy to do it.
Transfer of Your Personal Data
Sometimes, data may be processed on servers outside India—like when we use tools such as Google Analytics. But don’t worry, we only work with trusted services that protect your privacy. No weird transfers, and no risk to your personal info.
Delete Your Personal Data
Want your data gone? No problem. Just email us at abdulqudoosgraphics@gmail.com and we’ll delete it—no hassle. You can also clear cookies anytime from your browser to remove local browsing data. We’re not here to hold onto anything you don’t want us to keep.
Disclosure of Your Personal Data
We don’t randomly share your info. But in some rare cases, like legal matters or business transitions, we may need to disclose it. Even then, your privacy stays our top priority.
Business Transactions
If Kronometree ever merges with another company or is part of a sale, some data might be part of that process. But don’t worry—we’d only hand it over under strict privacy protections. You’ll be informed, and your data won’t be passed around carelessly.
Other Legal Requirements
If required by law—like a court order—we may have to share some info. But we won’t do it unless we absolutely have to. We respect your rights and won’t hand over data lightly. Ever.
Security of Your Personal Data
We do our best to keep your data safe. From using secure tools to limiting what we collect, we’ve built Kronometree with privacy in mind. No system is perfect, but we take real steps to protect your info and prevent misuse.
Children’s Privacy
Our site isn’t meant for kids under 13. We don’t knowingly collect data from children. If you’re a parent and think your child has shared something with us, reach out—we’ll take care of it.
Links to Other Websites
Sometimes we link to other sites—like stores, brands, or mall websites. Just know, once you click away from Kronometree, their privacy rules take over, not ours. Always check their policies before sharing anything.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
If we make changes to this policy, we’ll update this page and the “Last Updated” date. We’ll try to keep you in the loop, but checking here now and then is a good idea. Changes usually mean improvements—not tricks.
