We collect the following categories of information, which may be considered Personal Information when maintained in an identifiable format:

  • Technical product usage data, logs, metrics, metadata, and device information: We automatically generate and retain records of how users interact with our Sites and Services. This may include information such as your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, device identifiers, device information (such as OS type or browser type), cookie IDs, referring / exit pages and URLs, interaction information (such as clickstream data), domain names, pages viewed, crash data, and other similar technical data. We may use technologies such as cookies and/or scripts to collect this information. Please see COOKIES NOTICE for further information.

You are not required to consent to these calls as a condition to purchasing any Products, but withholding your consent may prevent us from providing certain services to you.

  • Direct marketing. In the future we may send out marketing communications (such as a newsletter) to our customers, who do not opt-out of receiving such communications, to explain developments with our business or to offer special promotions on our Products. We will only use your personal data for such direct marketing if you expressly give us consent to do so. You can always choose to stop receiving newsletters or other communications from us by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of a marketing message. Please understand that if you choose not to receive promotional correspondence from us, we may still contact you in connection with your relationship, activities, transactions and/or communications with us. 

We may also collect non-personally identifiable information that we combine with Personal Information to create aggregate information.

If you submit any Personal Information to us relating to other people, you represent that you have the authority to do so and permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

3. HOW AND WHY WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We only collect the information reasonably necessary to respond to inquiries about our Services, to provide you the Services, to carry out our operations, as required by law, and for the other legitimate business purposes, under applicable laws, as provided below:

  • To inform you about the Services in which you have indicated an interest or to which you’ve subscribed, including to fulfill transactions with you, provide customer support, and operate, maintain and improve the Services; To provide you with notices about your account and/or subscription, including expiration and renewal notices;
  • To assist in business development and general marketing and building relationships; to create a list of actual and prospective users and companies; to compile statistics regarding how the Sites are used in order to improve our Services;
  • To record your name and contact information, and other Personal Information for legitimate business purposes, so that we can provide our Services;

  • To improve the Sites and Services to provide you with better services, for example, we may use your personal data to improve the layout of our Sites based on the click path you utilized to access certain information within the Sites; 
  • To comply with legal obligations and professional responsibilities; 
  • To verify accounts and activity; and
  • To detect, prevent, and respond to potential or actual security incidents and to monitor and protect against other malicious, deceptive, fraudulent or illegal activity, including violations of Service policies; debug; verify or maintain quality or safety or improve or upgrade a service or device owned or controlled by us.

We do not profile visitors to our Sites or collect, in any automated manner, any special categories of sensitive Personal Information about you. No automated decision-making, including profiling, is used when processing your Personal Information.

Additional Uses of Personal Information:

In addition to the uses described above, we may use your Personal Information for the following purposes related to a Customer, Administrator or Authorized User.  Some of these uses, under certain circumstances may be based on your consent, may be necessary to fulfill our contractual commitments to you, or are necessary to serve our legitimate interests in the following business operations: 

  • Providing you with blogs, newsletters, articles, alerts and announcements, and other information that we believe may be of interest to you;
  • Providing you with marketing information about our Services;
  • Conducting surveys and similar inquiries to help us understand the needs of Companies, Administrators and Authorized Users;

  • Preventing, investigating, or providing notice of fraud, unlawful or criminal activity, or unauthorized access to or use of Personal Information, our Sites, Services or data systems; or to meet legal obligations; and
  • Enforcing our Terms of Service and other agreements.

Legal bases for processing (for EEA users): 

If you are an individual in the European Economic Area (EEA), we collect and process information about you only where we have legal bases for doing so under applicable EU laws.  The legal bases depend on the Services you use and how you use them. This means we collect and use your information only where:

  • We need it to provide you the Services, including to operate the Services, provide customer support and personalized features and to protect the safety and security of the Services;
  • It satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data protection interests), such as for research and development, to market and promote the Services and to protect our legal rights and interests;
  • You give us consent to do so for a specific purpose; or
  • We need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.

If you have consented to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place.  Where we are using your information because we or a third party (e.g. your employer) have a legitimate interest to do so, you have the right to object to that use though, in some cases, this may mean no longer using the Services. 

4. HOW WE SHARE AND DISCLOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION

We may disclose aggregated information that does not identify any individual (and therefore, is not deemed to be Personal Information) without restriction. We share Personal Information with the following categories of recipients:

  • Third-party Vendors: Your Personal Information will only be shared with and processed by our Affiliates and non-affiliated third-party service providers as permitted by law and for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We may disclose Personal Information to certain non-affiliated specialized service providers, including professional advisors, consultants, technical service providers, and other third parties, who are bound by contractual obligations to keep Personal Information confidential and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them. We may disclose your Personal Information to third-party service providers to provide us with services such as hosting of the Sites, including information technology and telephony services, and related infrastructure, customer service, email delivery, auditing and other similar services.
  • We use Hotjar in order to better understand our users’ needs and to optimize this service and experience. Hotjar is a technology service that helps us better understand our users’ experience (e.g. how much time they spend on which pages, which links they choose to click, what users do and don’t like, etc.) and this enables us to build and maintain our service with user feedback. Hotjar uses cookies and other technologies to collect data on our users’ behavior and their devices. This includes a device’s IP address (processed during your session and stored in a de-identified form), device screen size, device type (unique device identifiers), browser information, geographic location (country only), and the preferred language used to display our website. Hotjar stores this information on our behalf in a pseudonymized user profile. Hotjar is contractually forbidden to sell any of the data collected on our behalf. For further details, please see the ‘about Hotjar’ section of Hotjar’s support site.
  • Corporate Affiliates: We may share your information with our corporate Affiliates that are subject to this policy.
  • Google Analytics: We share anonymized, aggregated information with Google Analytics.
  • Business Transfers: When applicable, we may share your information in connection with a substantial corporate transaction, such as the sale of a Site, a merger, consolidation, asset sale, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy.
  • Third-Party Advertising: We do not disclose your Personal Information to third parties for purposes of their own advertising. We share information with third parties that manage only our advertising on other sites and applications.
  • With Your Consent or at Your Direction: We may share information for any other purposes disclosed to you at the time we collect the information or pursuant to your consent or direction.
  • Other Legal Reasons: In addition, we may use or disclose your Personal Information as we deem necessary or appropriate: (1) under applicable law; (2) to respond to requests from public and government authorities (3) to pursue available remedies or limit damages we may sustain; (5) to protect our operations or those of any of our Affiliates; (6) to protect the rights, privacy, safety or property of Appfire, our Affiliates, you and others; and (7) to enforce our terms and conditions.

Appfire keeps Personal Information on file, but does not share, sell, license or transmit this information to third parties or external vendors unless required to do so by legal, judicial or governmental proceedings, or to provide the services requested.

5. DATA SECURITY

We have implemented privacy and security measures reasonably adequate to preserve Your Data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction including, without limitation, compliance with Atlassian Marketplace privacy and security requirements (presently available here). We use a self-assessment approach to ensure compliance with our privacy statements and verify periodically that our statements regarding our handling and use of personally identifiable information are accurate and reasonably complete in regard to the information covered. Although we work hard to protect your Personal Information, Appfire cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us through online forms and applications, or chat rooms, and you do so at your own risk. Please note that email is considered a non-encrypted (and therefore nonsecure) form of communication, and it can be accessed and viewed by others without your knowledge and permission. For that reason, to protect your privacy, please do not use email to communicate information that you consider confidential. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be secure at all times. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us in accordance with the HOW TO CONTACT US section below. We will let you know promptly if a breach occurs that may have compromised the privacy or security of your information.

We are not responsible for any outcome if you circumvent any privacy settings or security measures. When applicable, you are responsible for choosing a password of appropriate strength, not reusing passwords used on other websites, and keeping your password confidential. Appfire employees will never ask for your password.

6. RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will retain your Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy and in order to provide you the Services, and for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you Services and Products. We will also retain your information to comply with our legal obligations, to conduct audits, resolve disputes, and enforce of our agreements.

7. CAPACITY / CHILDREN

Our Sites are only intended for individuals who are at least 16 years of age. We do not knowingly encourage or solicit visitors to our Sites who are under the age of 16 or knowingly collect Personal Information from anyone under the age of 16 without parental fiduciary consent.

If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 16, please contact us in accordance with the “How to Contact Us” section below.

We are committed to complying with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Our Service is not directed to children under the age of 13 and children under the age of 13 are not to use the Sites or provide any information to our Service without express parental consent. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13. If we receive Personal Information that we discover was provided by a child under the age of 13 without parental consent, we will promptly destroy such information.

Exercising Access, Data Portability and Deletion Rights: To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us as provided in HOW TO CONTACT US.

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative.
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us.

11. WITHDRAWAL OF YOUR CONSENT

Where you have provided consent to process Personal Information, you have the right to withdraw such consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. You may do this by contacting us as set forth in the HOW TO CONTACT US section below.

If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the Personal Information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

13. COOKIES NOTICE

What are cookies and why are cookies used: Cookies are small text files containing a unique string of characters that are stored in your web browser’s memory when you visit a website. When you return to a website that has placed a cookie in your browser, the cookie allows a website provider to recognize that you have visited the site before.

While cookies are often only used to measure website usage (such as number of visitors and duration of visit) and effectiveness (such as topics visitors are most interested in) and to allow for ease of navigation or use and, as such, are not associated with any Personal Information, they are also used at times to personalize a known visitor’s experience of a website by being associated with profile information or user preferences. Over time this information provides valuable insight to help improve the user experience.

How we use Cookies:  We use cookies and related technologies (“Cookies”) to provide Services, gather information when users navigate through the Sites to enhance and personalize the experience, to understand usage patterns, and to improve our Sites, products, and Services. 

Cookies in each of the categories below may be session or persistent cookies. Session cookies exist only during one session. They disappear when you close your browser, restart, or turn off your device. Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser, restart, or turn off your device.

Cookies on our Sites are generally divided into the following categories:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies:These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
  • Functional and Performance Cookies. These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation or allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.  These cookies may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. an example being Google Analytics, which is further explained below.  If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly. Additionally, if you do not allow these cookies we may not be able to monitor the performance of our website.
  • Google Analytics and Opt-out: Google Analytics uses first-party cookies to collect information about how users use our Sites. This information is used to compile reports and to help us improve our Site. The reports disclose website trends without identifying individual visitors. For more information on Google Analytics, please visit: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. You can opt out of Google Analytics without affecting how you visit our Sites.
  • Marketing and Advertising (Targeting) Cookies. These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
  • Pixel Tags: Pages of our Sites and our emails may contain small electronic files known as pixel tags (also referred to as clear gifs, web beacons, and single-pixel gifs) that permit Appfire, for example, to count users who have visited those pages (or opened an email) and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity). Pixel Tags have a similar function as Cookies. However, Pixel Tags differ from Cookies in that they are embedded directly on Web Pages or in HTML-based emails, instead of being stored on a user’s local storage drive. Appfire may utilize Pixel Tags in our email marketing activities to allow us to track which emails have been opened by recipients, and through that, understand the efficacy of our email marketing activities.  

How to Control Cookies: You can review your Internet browser settings, typically under the sections “Help” or “Internet Options,” to exercise choices you have for certain Cookies. If you choose to block all cookies, you may not have access to our Sites, our Services will not function as intended, and you will not be able to log in. If you have blocked all cookies and wish to make full use of the features and Services we offer, we recommend enabling at least first-party cookies. Rather than blocking all cookies, you can choose to block only third-party cookies. This will allow Appfire Services to function as intended. To learn more about the use of Cookies by Google for analytics see https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies. To exercise choice regarding those Cookies, please see the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. The opt-outs described above are device- and browser-specific and may not work on all devices.
