Privacy Policy

Oordhy
Last Updated: August 30, 2026

Kullooo Innovative Solutions ("Kullooo", "we", "us", or "our") operates the Oordhy mobile application ("Oordhy" or "App").

Oordhy is a school transportation and school bus tracking application designed to help schools, parents, guardians, students, drivers, and authorized transportation personnel manage and monitor school transportation.

This Privacy Policy explains how Oordhy accesses, collects, uses, transmits, stores, and shares information when you use the application.

Important Location Disclosure

Oordhy collects the driver's location during an active school bus trip. The driver's location may continue to be collected and transmitted while the application is running in the background, including when the phone screen is locked or another application is being used.

Background location tracking continues until the driver stops the active trip in Oordhy.

1. Information We Collect

Depending on your role and the features you use, Oordhy may access or process the following information:

  • Account and profile information.
  • Name and contact information.
  • School and transportation information.
  • Student and parent/guardian information.
  • Driver information.
  • Bus and route information.
  • Precise and approximate location information.
  • Background location information while an active trip is running.
  • Camera images when a camera feature is used.
  • Phone numbers when the calling feature is used.
  • Device and technical information.
  • Notification-related information.
  • Trip and transportation information.

2. Location Information

Precise and Approximate Location

Oordhy may access both precise and approximate location information depending on the Android permissions granted by the user and the functionality being used.

Location information is primarily used to provide school bus tracking and transportation-related services.

2.1 Driver Location Tracking

When a driver starts an active school bus trip in Oordhy, the application starts a location-tracking service.

During the active trip, the driver's device periodically obtains GPS location information and sends the location information to the Oordhy server so that authorized users can receive current bus location information.

The driver's location may continue to be collected and transmitted while the Oordhy application is running in the background.

2.2 Background Location

Oordhy uses Android background location functionality because the driver's location needs to continue being updated while the driver is travelling and the Oordhy application is not visible on the screen.

Background location tracking may continue when:

  • The Oordhy application is minimized.
  • The driver is using another application.
  • The device screen is locked.
  • The Oordhy tracking service is running in the background.

2.3 When Background Tracking Stops

Background location tracking is associated with the active school bus trip.

When the driver selects the option to stop the active trip in the Oordhy application, Oordhy stops the active tracking service and stops sending the driver's current location for that trip.

2.4 Background Location Notification

While an active trip is being tracked in the background, Oordhy displays a persistent Android notification informing the driver that the application is tracking the driver's location in the background.

The notification is intentionally persistent while the active trip is running and cannot be manually dismissed by the driver during active tracking.

When the driver stops the active trip in Oordhy, the background tracking service is stopped and the tracking notification is automatically removed.

2.5 Why We Collect Location

Oordhy uses location information for the following purposes:

  • Displaying the current location of an active school bus.
  • Allowing authorized parents or guardians to monitor the bus assigned to their child.
  • Allowing authorized school personnel to monitor active school transportation.
  • Monitoring the progress of an active bus journey.
  • Providing transportation-related updates.
  • Maintaining relevant trip and transportation records.
  • Improving the reliability and safety of school transportation.
  • Troubleshooting GPS and transportation-related problems.

2.6 Who Can Access Location Information

Driver location information is not intended to be publicly available.

Depending on the user's role and authorization, location information may be accessible to:

  • The parent or guardian associated with the relevant student.
  • Authorized school administrators.
  • Authorized transportation personnel.
  • Authorized users of the Oordhy transportation system.

Access to location information is controlled through the Oordhy account and authorization system.

3. Camera Information

Oordhy may request access to the device camera when a feature requires capturing or scanning an image, document, QR code, identification information, or other transportation-related information.

Camera access is used only when a camera-dependent feature is initiated or required.

Oordhy does not intentionally use the camera for unrelated background surveillance.

4. Phone and Calling Information

Oordhy may request permission to make phone calls when the application provides a calling feature.

This functionality may allow an authorized user to contact a driver, school, transportation administrator, or other relevant contact using the device's normal telephone functionality.

Oordhy does not record telephone conversations made through the device's normal phone functionality.

5. Internet and Network Access

Oordhy requires Internet access to communicate with its servers and provide application functionality.

Internet connectivity may be used for:

  • Sending driver GPS location to the Oordhy server.
  • Receiving bus location information.
  • Synchronizing transportation information.
  • Authentication and account management.
  • Receiving notifications.
  • Communication between the App and Oordhy services.

Data transmitted between the App and our servers is protected using appropriate security measures, including HTTPS/TLS encryption where supported.

6. Notifications

Oordhy may request permission to send notifications.

Notifications may be used for:

  • School bus journey updates.
  • Transportation status updates.
  • Bus arrival or route-related notifications.
  • Important school transportation announcements.
  • Background location tracking disclosure to the driver.
  • Other important information related to the Oordhy service.

Users can manage notification permissions through Android device settings, subject to Android system restrictions.

7. Foreground and Background Services

Oordhy may use Android foreground services to maintain continuous location tracking during an active school bus trip.

This is necessary because the driver's device may need to continue sending GPS location information while the Oordhy application is not visible on the screen.

Oordhy may also use Android wake-lock functionality when necessary to help maintain an active tracking service and prevent the device from entering a state that could interrupt location updates.

8. Device Startup

Oordhy may receive a notification from Android when the device starts up where required to initialize or restore applicable application services.

This functionality is intended to support reliable operation of transportation-related features.

9. Account and Transportation Information

Depending on the user's role, Oordhy may process information related to:

  • Parents and guardians.
  • Students.
  • Drivers.
  • Schools.
  • School buses.
  • Routes.
  • Trips and journeys.
  • Transportation schedules.

This information is used to operate the school transportation system and provide relevant information to authorized users.

10. Children's Information

Oordhy is designed to support school transportation and may therefore process information relating to students, including children.

Student-related information may be used to associate a student with an authorized parent or guardian, school, bus, route, or transportation service.

Student information is processed for school transportation purposes and is not intended to be publicly available.

We do not intentionally use children's information for targeted advertising.

11. Information Stored on Our Servers

Depending on the features enabled for the school or user, information may be stored securely on Oordhy's servers.

This information may include:

  • User account information.
  • Parent and guardian information.
  • Student transportation information.
  • Driver information.
  • School information.
  • Bus information.
  • Route information.
  • GPS location information.

Information may be shared or made available only when reasonably necessary to provide the Oordhy service.

Depending on the user's role, information may be accessible to:

  • Authorized schools and educational institutions.
  • Authorized parents or guardians.
  • Authorized drivers.
  • Authorized transportation personnel.
  • Service providers required to operate our infrastructure.
  • Government authorities when legally required.

  • Security and infrastructure services.

Third-party providers may process information according to their own privacy policies and applicable terms.

15. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Information transmitted between Oordhy and our servers is protected using appropriate encryption technologies such as HTTPS/TLS where supported.

Despite these safeguards, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

16. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide Oordhy services, maintain transportation records, provide security, troubleshoot technical problems, resolve disputes, and comply with applicable legal requirements.

Location information associated with completed trips may be retained as part of transportation records for a period determined by the applicable school or transportation service requirements and our operational requirements.

17. Data Deletion

Users may request deletion of personal information associated with their Oordhy account, subject to applicable law and legitimate requirements to retain certain records.

To request deletion of your personal information or Oordhy account, please contact us using the contact information provided below.

Upon receiving a valid deletion request, we will review the request and delete or anonymize information where required and technically feasible, except information that we are legally required or legitimately permitted to retain.

18. User Control of Permissions

Users can manage Android permissions through their device settings.

Depending on the Android version and device, users may be able to grant, deny, or revoke permissions including:

  • Precise location.
  • Approximate location.
  • Background location.
  • Camera.
  • Phone.
  • Notifications.

Revoking a permission required by a particular feature may prevent that feature from functioning correctly.

19. Children's Privacy and School Use

Because Oordhy is designed for school transportation, schools and educational institutions may use the App to manage transportation information relating to students.

Schools and authorized organizations using Oordhy are responsible for ensuring that they have the appropriate authority and permissions to provide student information to the service and to use the service for their transportation operations.

20. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the Oordhy application, our services, data practices, or applicable legal requirements.

When changes are made, the "Last Updated" date at the top of this Privacy Policy will be updated.
