YOUR CHOICES
Account Information
You may correct your account information at any time by logging into your Gikko Account. If you wish to cancel your account, please email us at sales@gikko.net. Please note that in some cases we may retain certain information about you as required by law, or for legitimate business purposes to the extent permitted by law.

Gikko will comply with individual’s requests regarding access, correction, and/or deletion of the personal data it stores in accordance with applicable law.
LOCATION INFORMATION
We request permission for our app’s collection of precise location from your device per the permission system used by your mobile operating system.
