This privacy notice describes how I might use your information if you do the following:

Visit the EditRight website at http://www.edit-right.com
Engage with EditRight in other related ways — including any sales, marketing, or events

In this privacy notice, if I refer to:

“Website,” I am referring to any website of mine that references or links to this policy
“Services,” I am referring to my Website, and other related services, including any sales, marketing, or events

The purpose of this privacy notice is to explain to you in the clearest way possible what information I collect, how I use it, and what rights you have in relation to it. If there are any terms in this privacy notice that you do not agree with, please discontinue use of my Services immediately.

Please read this privacy notice carefully, as it will help you understand what I do with the information that I collect.

1. WHAT INFORMATION DO I COLLECT?

Personal information you disclose to me

In short: I collect personal information that you provide to me.

I collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to me when you use the contact form on the Website to request a quote or make any other kind of inquiry, or when you contact me directly through email or other means.

If you contact me through the contact form on the Website, you are required to include your full name and email address, and you may choose to include your company name and other information. Otherwise, the personal information that I collect depends on the context of your interactions with me and the Website, the choices you make, and the products and features you use. The personal information I collect may include personal information provided by you: names, phone numbers, email addresses, mailing addresses, job titles, contact preferences, contact or authentication data, and other similar information.

All personal information that you provide to me must be true, complete, and accurate, and you must notify me of any changes to such personal information.

Information automatically collected

In short: Some information — such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address and/or browser and device characteristics — is collected automatically when you visit the Website.

I automatically collect certain information when you visit, use, or navigate the Website. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser, and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, location, information about how and when you use the Website, and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of the Website, and for internal analytics and reporting purposes.

Like many businesses, EditRight also collects information through cookies and similar technologies. You can find out more about this in the Cookie Policy:
http://www.edit-right.com/cookie-policy/.

The information I collect includes:

Device data. I collect device data, such as information about your computer, phone, tablet, or other device you use to access the Website. Depending on the device used, this device data may include information such as your IP address (or proxy server), device and application identification numbers, location, browser type, hardware model, Internet service provider and/or mobile carrier, operating system, and system configuration information.
Location data. I collect location data, such as information about your device’s location, which can be either precise or imprecise. How much information I collect depends on the type and settings of the device you use to access the Website. For example, I may use GPS and other technologies to collect geolocation data that tells me your current location (based on your IP address). You can opt out of allowing me to collect this information by either refusing access to the information or disabling your Location setting on your device. Note, however, that if you choose to opt out, you may not be able to use certain aspects of the Services.

2. HOW DO I USE YOUR INFORMATION?

In short: I process your information for purposes based on legitimate business interests, the fulfillment of my contract with you, compliance with my legal obligations, and/or your consent.

I use personal information collected via the Website for a variety of business purposes described below. I process your personal information for these purposes in reliance on my legitimate business interests in order to enter into or perform a contract with you, with your consent, and/or for compliance with my legal obligations. I indicate the specific processing grounds I rely on next to each purpose listed below.

I use the information I collect or receive to do the following:

Send administrative information to you. I may use your personal information to send you product, service, and new feature information and/or information about changes to my terms, conditions, and policies.
Protect my Services. I may use your information as part of my efforts to keep the Website safe and secure (for example, for fraud monitoring and prevention).
Enforce my terms, conditions, and policies for business purposes to comply with legal and regulatory requirements or in connection with our contract.
Respond to legal requests and prevent harm. If I receive a subpoena or other legal request, I may need to inspect the data I hold to determine how to respond.

For example, when expressing an interest in obtaining information about me or the Website, subscribing to marketing, or otherwise contacting me, I will collect personal information from you. You can opt out of our marketing emails at any time (see “WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?” below).
Deliver targeted advertising to you. I may use your information to develop and display personalized content and advertising (and work with third parties who do so) tailored to your interests and/or location and to measure its effectiveness. For more information, see the Cookie Policy: http://www.edit-right.com/cookie-policy/.
Fulfill other business purposes. I may use your information for other business purposes, such as performing data analysis, identifying usage trends, determining the effectiveness of promotional campaigns, and evaluating and improving the Website, my products, my marketing, and your experience. I may use and store this information in aggregated and anonymized form so that it is not associated with individual end users and does not include personal information.

Improve your experience with the Website.

3. WILL YOUR INFORMATION BE SHARED WITH ANYONE?

In short: I only share information with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services, to protect your rights, or to fulfill business obligations.

I may process or share your data that I hold based on the following legal basis.

Consent: I may process your data if you have given me specific consent to use your personal information for a specific purpose.
Legitimate interests: I may process your data when it is reasonably necessary to achieve my legitimate business interests.
Performance of a contract: Where I have entered into a contract with you, I may process your personal information to fulfill the terms of our contract.
Legal obligations: I may disclose your information where I am legally required to do so in order to comply with applicable law, governmental requests, a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process, such as in response to a court order or a subpoena (including in response to public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements).
Vital interests: I may disclose your information where I believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding potential violations of my policies, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person, and illegal activities, or as evidence in litigation in which I am involved.

4. DO I USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

In short: I may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.

I may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. Specific information about how I use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out in the Cookie Policy:
http://www.edit-right.com/cookie-policy/.

5. HOW LONG DO I KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

In short: I keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law.

I will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

When I have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, I will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then I will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

6. HOW DO I KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

In short: I aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.

I have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information I process. However, despite my safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so I cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat my security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although I will do my best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from the Website is at your own risk. You should only access the Website within a secure environment.

7. DO I COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

In short: I do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.

I do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the Website, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Website. If I learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, I will take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from my records. If you become aware of any data I may have collected from children under the age of 18, please contact me at shane.lewans@edit-right.com.

8. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

In short: In some regions, such as the European Economic Area (EEA) and the United Kingdom (UK), you have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information.

In some regions (like the EEA and the UK), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure; (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information; and (iv) if applicable, to data portability. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. To make such a request, please use the contact details provided below. I will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

If I am relying on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Please note, however, that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

If you are a resident in the EEA or the UK and you believe I am unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection supervisory authority. You can find their contact details here: https://ec.europa.eu/newsroom/article29/items/612080.

If you are a resident in Switzerland, the contact details for the protection authorities are available here: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch/edoeb/en/home.html.

Cookies and similar technologies: Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of the Website. For further information, please see the Cookie Policy: http://www.edit-right.com/cookie-policy/.

9. CONTROL FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, the Website does not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that I must follow in the future, I will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.

10. DO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?

In short: Yes, if you are a resident of California, you are granted specific rights regarding access to your personal information.

California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine The Light” law, permits users who are California residents to request and obtain from me, once a year free of charge, information about categories of personal information (if any) I disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of all third parties with which I shared personal information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to me using the contact information provided below.

11. DO I MAKE UPDATES TO THIS NOTICE?

In short: Yes, I will update this notice as necessary to stay compliant with relevant laws.

I may update this privacy notice from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated “Revised” date, and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible. If I make material changes to this privacy notice, I may notify you either by prominently posting a notice of such changes or by directly sending you a notification. I encourage you to review this privacy notice frequently to stay informed of how I am protecting your information.
