How COHY Travel Solution Private Limited collects, uses, and protects your data

COHY TRAVEL SOLUTION PRIVATE LIMITED  •  CIN: U79110GJ2026PTC175111

1. Introduction

At COHY TRAVEL SOLUTION PRIVATE LIMITED (the "Company," "we," "our," or "us"), we are committed to protecting your personal information and being transparent about how we handle it. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices regarding the collection, use, processing, storage, and disclosure of your data when you engage with our website, mobile applications, and various service offerings (collectively, the "Platform"). Our Platform serves as a comprehensive travel hub, providing both traditional travel booking services—including flights, hotels, and holiday packages—and a unique, exclusive social networking feature known as the "Travel Community," designed to help you discover and connect with like-minded travel companions. By accessing or using any part of our Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1.1 Information We Collect and Why

To provide you with a seamless travel and social experience, we collect information that helps us personalize your journey. This includes:

1.2 How Your Data is Shared and Stored

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. However, to fulfill our services, we must share relevant information with service providers such as airlines, hotels, and payment processors. Within the Travel Community, certain profile elements will be visible to other registered members to facilitate networking, though you retain control over your privacy settings. We employ industry-standard encryption and security protocols to store your data, ensuring it remains protected from unauthorized access or accidental loss.

1.3 Your Rights and Choices

We believe you should stay in control of your digital footprint. You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time through your account settings. If you wish to opt out of marketing communications or restrict how your data is used within our social networking features, you can adjust your preferences or contact our support team directly. We periodically update this policy to reflect changes in legal requirements or our service offerings, and we encourage you to review it regularly to stay informed about how we are safeguarding your travel experiences.

4. Travel Community & User Interaction Disclaimer

The Travel Community feature is designed to foster connections and shared experiences. However, the nature of social networking involves inherent risks. By opting into and using these features, you acknowledge and agree to the following terms and safety guidelines.

4.1 Assumption of Risk

While our Platform provides the tools to facilitate connections, any interaction, communication, or subsequent travel arrangement made between users is strictly at your own risk. The Company provides the medium for discovery but does not oversee the private interactions or physical meetings of its members.

We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to monitor content shared within the Travel Community. We may remove content or suspend accounts that violate our Community Standards. If you encounter any suspicious or inappropriate behavior, please use the "Report User" feature or contact our support team immediately.

4.5

The Company acts solely as a service provider and is not a party to any agreements made between users. Your safety is our priority, but ultimately, it remains your personal responsibility.

5. Sharing of Information

Since travel is global, your information may be processed in countries outside of your residence. We ensure that all international transfers comply with applicable data protection laws and maintain a high level of security regardless of where your data is processed.

While we employ rigorous security protocols, it is important to note that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information but cannot guarantee its absolute security. In the event of a confirmed data breach, we will notify affected individuals and regulatory bodies in accordance with applicable law.

13. International Users

For international users, please be advised that by accessing or utilizing our Platform from jurisdictions outside of India, your personal information will be transferred to, stored, and processed within our centralized servers and data centers located in India. You acknowledge that the data protection and privacy laws in India may differ from those in your home country and may not offer an identical level of protection as mandated by the GDPR (European Union), UK GDPR, or other regional frameworks; however, we implement robust cross-border transfer mechanisms—including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and advanced encryption—to ensure your data is handled with a high degree of security and in strict accordance with this Privacy Policy. By continuing to use our services, you provide your explicit and informed consent to this international transfer and to the processing of your data in a jurisdiction that may be subject to different legal and regulatory oversight.

15.2 Comprehensive Waiver of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company (including its officers, directors, and employees) shall not be held liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from community interactions, including but not limited to:

15.3 Dispute Resolution Between Users

Any disputes, disagreements, or legal claims arising from a community interaction are strictly and exclusively between the users involved. The Company is under no obligation to mediate, intervene, or provide compensation for such disputes. We will, however, comply with valid legal requests for information from law enforcement agencies as outlined in Section 5.2.

15.4 Assumption of Risk & Indemnification

17. In-App Purchases & Subscription Data

COHY offers optional paid memberships. This section explains what data is involved when you buy one.

17.1 We do not collect your payment card details

All payments are processed by the payment provider for your platform — Apple for purchases made through the App Store on iPhone or iPad, and our payment gateway for purchases made on Android or on our website. Card numbers, UPI IDs, net-banking credentials and similar payment credentials are entered directly with that provider and are never received or stored by COHY.

17.2 What we receive for App Store purchases

When you purchase or renew a membership through the Apple App Store, our servers receive and store a purchase record from Apple containing:

This record does not identify you to us by name, card or Apple ID. We use it only to activate and maintain your membership, to prevent the same subscription from being linked to multiple COHY accounts, and to keep your payment history accurate inside the app.

17.3 Renewal and cancellation notifications

Apple sends automated server notifications to COHY when a subscription renews, fails to renew, is cancelled, refunded, or expires, so that your membership status inside the app stays correct. We act on these notifications automatically.

17.4 Apple's own processing

Apple's handling of your purchase, your Apple ID and your payment method is governed by Apple's own privacy policy, available at apple.com/legal/privacy. COHY has no access to, and no control over, that data.

17.5 Retention

Subscription and payment records are retained for as long as your account is active and thereafter for the period required by applicable tax, accounting and statutory record-keeping laws, as described in Clause 8 (Data Retention & Archival Policy).

17.6 Managing your subscription

You can view, manage or cancel an App Store subscription at any time in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions on your device. Cancellation is handled by Apple; COHY cannot cancel or refund an App Store subscription on your behalf. See Clause 20 of our Terms & Conditions for the full subscription terms.
