The Types of Information We Collect

We may collect and receive information about you from various sources, including

1. directly from you when you provide it to us,

2. indirectly from you when you use the Portal Services, and

3. from third-party websites, services, and partners.

“Personal information” is any information that can be used to identify you or that we can link to you as an individual. We collect your personal information when you provide it to us.

Information you provide to us directly.

You can use some of our Portal Services without providing us with any personal information. However, when you register for an Account, you provide us with personal information, including items such as your name and email address. Using your account and accessing other portions of our Portal Services may require entering a password or other credentials. Your password or credentials are stored locally on your device or computer, and they are never transmitted to us.

If you contact us directly, we may also receive personal information and other information about you, such as your name, title, email address, phone number, the contents of the message and/or attachments you may send us, and any other information you may choose to provide. We may also receive a confirmation when you open an email from us

Information we may collect indirectly.

We use browser cookies and similar tracking technologies (collectively, “Cookies”) to collect and store certain information when using, accessing, or interacting with our Portal Services.

Cookies are small files of information, usually stored on your application, computer, or device, allowing our web servers or third-party services to recognize you. We store information that we collect through Cookies to record your preferences, settings, and status for the Portal Services and to analyze how you use the Portal Services. In some countries, including countries in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the information referenced above in this paragraph may be considered personal information under applicable data protection laws. (More details below under the section entitled “Your Choices and Rights.”)

With Cookies, we may, for example, collect information about the type of device you use to access the Portal Services, the operating system and version, your IP address, your general geographic location as indicated by your IP address, your browser type, and data on your interaction with the Portal Services (such as search terms you enter or your frequency of usage, including your use across different websites and applications). We may also collect data regarding the functionality of our Portal Services, including system-level metrics, to help us operate, maintain and improve the performance and utilization of the Portal Services, to develop new features, protect the security and safety of our Portal Services, and our customers, and to provide customer support. We also use this data to develop aggregate analysis and business intelligence that enable us to operate, protect, make informed decisions, and report on the performance of our business.

Information we may collect from third-party sources.

We may receive information about you from third parties that help us update, expand, and analyze our records and prevent or detect fraud. If you choose to link our Portal Services to a third-party account, we will receive information about that account, such as your authentication token from the third-party account, to authorize linking. Please note that the information we may receive is governed by the third party’s privacy settings, policies, and/or procedures.

We may also collect information from social media platforms that share information about how you interact with our social media content. Further, we may also receive publicly-available information about you from our third-party partners and combine it with data about you.

How We Use the Information We Collect

We use the information we collect in various ways, including:

provide, operate, and maintain our Portal Services;

improve, personalize, and expand our Portal Services;

understand and analyze how you use our Portal Services;

develop new products, services, features, and functionality;

communicate with you (either directly or through one of our partners) to provide customer service, to provide updates, and other information relating to the Portal Services;

The above uses may involve information that has been aggregated so that the data is no longer capable of identifying an individual. We may also use this aggregated data to generate and commercialize insights.

Legal Basis for Using Personal Information

Our legal basis for collecting and using personal information will depend on the information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we usually collect and use your personal information only when doing so:

1. It is needed to perform our contractual or legal obligations to you.

2. It is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your rights.

3. It is done with your consent.

We have a legitimate interest in operating our Portal Services and communicating with you as necessary to provide these Portal Services, for example, when responding to your queries, improving our platform, undertaking marketing, or detecting or preventing illegal activities.

If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform our contractual obligations with you, we will make this clear at the appropriate time. We will advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory, which includes the possible consequences of not providing your personal information.

You may withdraw any consent you have granted to use your personal information by contacting us through the information we provide under the section entitled “Contact Us” below. When required by applicable law, we will rely on your consent for direct marketing and to collect information from your device or computer.

How We Protect and Store The Information We Collect

We deploy administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to comply with applicable legal requirements and safeguard the information that we collect.

However, no information system can be 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information. Moreover, the information you transmit over networks that we do not control, including the Internet and wireless networks, may be compromised.

The Portal Services are controlled and operated by Usertoken.io. We may store the information we collect in the EEA or other countries where our service providers or we have facilities. We may transfer information to countries outside of your country of residence, with data protection laws and regulations that differ from those in your country.

We retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or comply with applicable legal, tax, or accounting requirements).

We retain the information we collect for no longer than is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collect the data and to comply with our legal obligations.

Third-party Services And Content

Our Portal Services may include integrated content (such as video materials) or links to content or services provided by third parties (such as on outside websites). This Privacy Policy does not address the third parties’ privacy, security, or other practices that provide such content or services. We are not responsible for these third parties privacy policies and/or practices, and we encourage you to carefully review their privacy policies and terms of service.

We engage third parties that support the operation of our Portal Services, such as analytics providers. These third parties may use technologies to track your online activities over time and across different websites and online platforms.

Your Choices And Rights

You have choices and certain rights that can affect the collection and sharing of your information.
