Scope
This policy applies to personal information processed by Warka in connection with our marketing website, sales and support communications, and the Warka cloud HR platform (people, attendance, leave, recruitment, performance, payroll, and related modules).
If you use Warka on behalf of an organization, your employer is typically the data controller for employee HR data entered into the product. Warka acts as a processor for that customer data under applicable data protection laws and our agreements with customers.
Information we collect
We collect information in three main contexts: website visitors, prospective customers, and platform users.
- Website and marketing: pages viewed, referral source, device/browser type, IP address, and cookie identifiers where applicable.
- Demo and contact forms: name, work email, company name, team size, and messages you submit.
- Account and product use: login credentials, profile details, billing contact information, and usage logs needed to operate and secure the service.
- Customer HR data: employee and workforce records that customers upload or generate in Warka (for example directory profiles, attendance, leave, recruitment, performance, and payroll data).
How we use information
We use personal information to provide, maintain, and improve Warka; respond to demo and support requests; send service-related communications; secure our systems; comply with law; and analyze aggregated usage to improve the product.
We do not sell personal information. We do not use customer HR data for unrelated advertising purposes.
- Provide and operate the website and Warka platform.
- Process demo requests, sales inquiries, and customer support.
- Authenticate users and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents.
- Send administrative notices, product updates, and billing communications.
- Analyze usage trends in aggregated or de-identified form where possible.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
Legal bases for processing
Where applicable under laws such as the GDPR, we rely on one or more of the following bases: performance of a contract, legitimate interests (for example securing and improving our services), consent (where required for marketing cookies or optional communications), and compliance with legal obligations.
You may withdraw consent where processing is consent-based, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
International transfers
Warka may process and store information in countries other than where you live. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers, such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms.
Data retention
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the service, fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
Marketing and demo inquiry data is generally retained for a limited period unless a longer period is needed for sales follow-up or legal compliance. Customer HR data is retained according to the customer subscription and applicable contract terms, and deleted or returned upon account closure where applicable.
Security
We implement administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information, including access controls, encryption in transit, tenant isolation in the application layer, and monitoring for abuse.
No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. Please use strong credentials and notify us promptly of any suspected unauthorized access.
For more detail, see our Security page.
Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing, data portability, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
If Warka processes your HR data on behalf of your employer, direct your request to your employer first; we will assist them as required by our agreement and applicable law.

Children
Warka is a business service not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe we have collected such information, contact us so we can delete it.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the revised version on this page and update the “Last updated” date. Material changes may be communicated by email or in-product notice where appropriate.
