3. Personal information we collect

The information we collect depends on how you interact with Moto Halo.

This may include:

First and last name.
Email address.
Telephone number.
Billing and delivery address.
Account username and login information.
Messages, enquiries and support correspondence.

Order, payment and subscription information

This may include:

Products and subscriptions purchased.
Order value, date and status.

Instructions and communications relating to monitoring or recovery support.

Vehicle-location information can reveal information about the movements of a vehicle user. Access should therefore be restricted to authorised account users.

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we consider whether the processing is necessary and balance our interests against your rights and reasonable expectations.

Where processing relies on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.

5. How the vehicle-tracking service works

A Moto Halo tracker collects information about the location and status of the vehicle in which it is installed.

Information temporarily held by the tracking device is encrypted and transmitted over mobile networks to the tracking platform using secure telecommunications protocols. The information is then stored on protected cloud infrastructure.

The tracking platform uses this information to provide functions such as:

Displaying a vehicle’s current location.
Providing authorised location history.
Generating movement or tamper alerts.
Monitoring tracker status and connectivity.
Supporting monitoring or recovery services where included in the customer’s plan.

Location and alert information may be made available to:

Authorised users of the relevant Moto Halo account.
Our tracking-platform and hosting providers.
Monitoring and recovery partners where included in the service.
Law-enforcement agencies or other authorities where legally required or appropriately authorised.
Other parties where the account holder requests the disclosure and it is lawful to provide it.

6. Professional installation

Where you ask us to arrange professional installation, we may provide an approved installer with the information reasonably required to complete the installation.

This may include:

Your name.
Telephone number and email address.
Installation address.
Vehicle make, model and registration.
Product and appointment information.

Installers must only use this information for authorised installation and related support purposes.

7. Payments and ecommerce

Our website uses WooCommerce to operate the online shop and Stripe to process payments.

When you attempt or complete a transaction, Stripe may receive information including:

Your name and contact details.
Billing address.
Payment information.
Transaction details.
Device and technical information used for fraud prevention.

Stripe may act as our processor for some activities and as an independent controller for others. More information is available in the Stripe Privacy Policy at:

https://stripe.com/gb/privacy

Where accelerated checkout services are available, information saved to a Stripe Link account is managed by Stripe under its own terms and privacy policy.

We may share delivery information with couriers or fulfilment providers where necessary to complete your order.

8. Contact forms and spam prevention

When you submit a contact form, we collect the name, telephone number, email address and message you provide.

We use this information to respond to your enquiry, provide requested support and retain an appropriate record of the communication.

Our forms use Google reCAPTCHA to help identify spam and automated submissions. Google may process technical information about your browser and interaction with the website for this purpose.

Google’s privacy policy is available at: https://policies.google.com/privacy

9. Analytics, advertising and cookies

Our website currently uses technologies that may include:

Google Analytics 4.
Meta Pixel.
Google reCAPTCHA.
Google Maps.
WooCommerce cookies.
Account, basket and checkout cookies.
Security and consent-management technologies.

Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use the website. It may process information such as pages viewed, approximate location, browser information, device identifiers and website interactions.

The Google Analytics property is currently configured to retain event data for up to two months and user data for up to 14 months. Aggregated reporting information that does not identify an individual visitor may remain available for longer.

Meta Pixel helps us measure the effectiveness of advertising and understand actions taken after people view or interact with advertisements.

Further information is available from:

Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Google partner sites information: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Meta: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/

Non-essential analytics and advertising technologies should only operate after you have made the relevant choice through our cookie controls.

You can change or withdraw your cookie preferences using the cookie settings available on our website.

Further information about individual cookies and their duration is provided in our Cookie Policy.

10. Marketing communications

We may send marketing communications where you have requested them or where we are otherwise permitted to do so by law.

We will not use customer contact details for email or SMS marketing unless we have an appropriate lawful basis and provide a clear way to opt out.

You can stop receiving marketing communications by:

Using the unsubscribe option in a marketing message.
Contacting watching@motohalo.co.uk.
Updating any available account preferences.

Stopping marketing messages will not prevent us from sending necessary service communications relating to an order, account, tracker, installation or subscription.

We may retain limited suppression information so that we can continue to respect an opt-out request.

11. Who we share personal information with

Where necessary, we may share personal information with:

Website, app and tracking-platform hosting providers.
Cloud-storage and backup providers.
Payment processors, banks and fraud-prevention providers.
Delivery and fulfilment providers.
Approved tracker installers.
Monitoring and recovery-service providers.
Customer-support and communications providers.
Analytics, advertising and cookie-management providers.
Website developers and IT-support providers.
Professional advisers, including accountants, solicitors and insurers.
Police, courts, regulators and public authorities.
A purchaser or adviser involved in a proposed sale or restructuring of the business.

We require service providers acting on our behalf to protect personal information and only use it for authorised purposes.

Some third parties, including payment providers and advertising platforms, may act as independent controllers. Their own privacy policies apply to the ways in which they independently use personal information.

We do not disclose vehicle-location information to an insurer merely because a tracker has been installed. Any such disclosure requires an appropriate lawful basis or authorisation.

Shared tracking technology

Moto Halo may use technology and infrastructure also used in connection with FleetSmart services.

Where Northern Technology Ltd or another group or technology company processes Moto Halo customer information solely on our instructions, it will act as a data processor.

If another company jointly decides why and how personal information is used, it may instead act as a joint controller. Where this applies, we will provide information about the relevant arrangement and how you can exercise your rights.

12. International transfers

Some technology, payment, analytics, advertising or infrastructure providers may process personal information outside the United Kingdom.

Where information is transferred to a country not covered by UK adequacy regulations, we will ensure an appropriate transfer mechanism is used where required.

This may include:

The UK International Data Transfer Agreement.
The UK Addendum to approved contractual clauses.
Another safeguard permitted by UK data protection law.

You can contact us for further information about safeguards applying to your personal information.

13. How long we keep personal information

We only keep personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including legal, accounting, security and dispute-resolution requirements.

Our anticipated retention periods are:

Information	Retention
Enquiries that do not result in a purchase	Normally up to 24 months after the last meaningful contact
Customer account information	While the account is active and for an appropriate period following closure
Orders, invoices and accounting records	Normally six years after the end of the relevant accounting period
Payment transaction information	For the period needed to manage the transaction and comply with financial, fraud and legal obligations
Tracker and subscription information	While the service is active and for an appropriate period after it ends
Vehicle-location and alert history	For the life of the service and an appropriate period afterwards
Installation records	For the life of the service and an appropriate period afterwards
Customer-support records	Normally up to 24 months after the issue is closed, unless required for an ongoing contract or dispute
Marketing information	Until consent is withdrawn or you object, followed by limited suppression information
Google Analytics event data	Up to two months
Google Analytics user data	Up to 14 months
Security and system logs	For a proportionate period based on security and fraud-prevention requirements

Information may remain in restricted backups for a limited period after deletion from active systems.

We may retain information for longer where required for a legal claim, investigation, regulatory obligation or unresolved dispute.

14. How we protect personal information

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal information against accidental loss, unauthorised access, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

These measures may include:

Encryption during transmission.
Encryption of tracker and cloud information.
Account authentication and access controls.
Restricted administrative access.
Security monitoring and system logs.
Protected backups.
Supplier confidentiality and data-processing requirements.
Procedures for investigating suspected personal-data breaches.

No internet-based service is completely secure. Customers are responsible for protecting their account credentials and should contact us if they suspect unauthorised access to an account or tracker.

15. Automated decision-making

Moto Halo does not currently make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects for customers.

Payment and fraud-prevention providers may conduct automated security checks under their own privacy policies.

16. Your data-protection rights

Depending on the circumstances and the lawful basis being used, you may have the right to:

Ask for a copy of your personal information.
Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
Ask us to delete personal information.
Ask us to restrict how information is used.
Object to processing based on legitimate interests.
Object to direct marketing at any time.
Receive certain information in a portable format.
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Ask for human intervention in qualifying automated decisions.
Complain about how we use personal information.

These rights are not absolute, and an exemption may apply in some circumstances.

To exercise a right, contact watching@motohalo.co.uk.

We may ask for information needed to confirm your identity and locate the relevant records. We will respond without undue delay and normally within one month.

17. Your right to object

You have the right to object at any time to our use of your personal information for direct marketing.

You may also object where we rely on legitimate interests. If you object, we will stop the relevant processing unless we have compelling legitimate reasons to continue or the information is required for legal claims.

18. Children

Our products and services are not directed at children. Customer accounts and purchases should be created by adults.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children through the website. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us.

19. Complaints

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office:
