What You Need to Know When Using the Lumi mobile apps (the 'mobile apps')

When you use mobile apps, we collect and use information about you in the same way and for the same purposes as we do when you use our website.

In addition to the same information we collect and use when using the Lumi website, we also use some other information that we collect automatically when you use our mobile apps. Specifically:

  • We collect information about mobile app functionality that you access and use. This allows us to identify those areas of the mobile app that are of interest to our customers so that we can refine and continuously improve the mobile app. The information we collect for this purpose does not enable us to directly identify you.
  • Each mobile app also sends us the device's unique device identifier (or "UDI"), a sequence of numbers or characters that are unique to your mobile device, as well as the unique Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) and Identifier For Vendor (IDFV). We use this only on the first opening of the mobile app so that we can confirm to our advertising networks the number of downloads resulting from clicks on their respective banner ads and other marketing tools.
  • When you use a mobile app, you can choose to allow access to your current location – provided by your mobile device using GPS or similar technologies – in order to identify nearby Lumi branches. If you choose to allow access, this location data may be collected anonymously as part of search requests logged by our servers. It may also be used for geo-targeting purposes to deliver relevant marketing messages to you and enhance your experience. You can switch off the mobile app’s access to your location at any time through your phone settings menu. This might however restrict usage of any location-dependent services or options available on our mobile app.
  • You always have the ability to control what information a mobile app sends to us. You can exercise this control either by changing the settings of the mobile app under its setting menu or changing the settings of your mobile device. Alternatively, you can remove the mobile app from your mobile device entirely and access our services through our website.
  • At times, we record your booking process to understand booking behaviour and improve our product. However, we do not record sensitive information such as card details.

Cookies Policy

There is a technology called "cookies", which may be used by us to provide you with customised information from the Lumi website or mobile applications. A cookie is an element of data that a website or mobile application can send to your browser, which may then store it on your system. Cookies allow us to understand who has seen which pages and advertisements, to determine how frequently particular pages are visited and to determine the most popular areas of our website. Cookies also allow us to make Lumi’s website or mobile applications more user-friendly by, for example, allowing us to take you to the language site of your last use so that we can give you a better experience when you return to our website. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies. You do not have to accept cookies, and you should read the information that came with your browser software to see how you can set it up to notify you when you receive a cookie, so you can decide whether to accept it.

Data Retention and Destruction

We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. We will ensure that all personal data is properly destroyed when it is no longer needed.

Data Subject Rights

You have the right to request deletion of your personal data. To exercise this right, please contact our Data Protection Officer at [email protected].

Data Protection Officer

You can contact our Data Protection Officer via [email protected] for any questions or concerns about our data protection practices.

International Data Transfers

Lumi may transfer your personal information to countries outside of Saudi Arabia. We will ensure an adequate level of protection for your data in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the revised policy on our website or by other means.
