What this policy covers

Your privacy matters to us. That’s why we strive to be transparent about how we collect, use, and share information about you. This policy is intended to help you understand:

Core principles

We process your personal data lawfully in a transparent, fair, and accurate manner:

1. We explain what data we collect and how we process it (transparent);
2. The processing matches the description given in this Privacy Policy (fair);
3. The processing is for one of the purposes described below (lawful);
4. The data is accurate and kept up to date (accurate).

We collect your personal data for the purposes that we described in the dedicated section. Collection scope and time are limited by these purposes. Also:

• We do not collect sensitive data or child data.
• We never sell your personal information.
• We never give out your personal information unless you gave us specific permission to do that, and then only for the very limited purposes outlined below.
• We assure the security and confidentiality of your personal data.

Sources we use to collect personal information

We collect personal information from:

1. Our Website;
2. Email, text, and other electronic messages between you and us;
3. Public sources, including but not limited to social media;
4. Our clients while providing services for them.

We process personal information that our clients give to us to provide our services. In this case, we process the information according to the Data Processing Agreement within the scope and for the purposes defined in the Service Agreement.

Types of information we collect

We collect the following information and use it only as described here:

Personal Information. This may include your name, email address, organization, phone number, photo, CV, social media profile, and other information that you provide by filling in forms on our Website. Personal information does not include anonymized information that we collect using such services as Google Analytics. Normally, anonymized information allows us to understand your browser type, referring website, time of your visit, approximate location, and some other details. It does not permit us to isolate your individual identity. However, we may match anonymized information with your identifying personal information that you provided to us or we received via public sources and other sources.

Sensitive and Child Information. We do not collect sensitive personal data and child data. “Sensitive personal data” for our purposes means information needing special treatment, in some circumstances requiring you to give us your explicit consent. Among those categories may be your identifying numbers, financial account data, race or ethnicity, political views, philosophical, religious, or various comparable beliefs, belonging to a trade union or professional or trade association, physical or mental health, biometric or genetic data, sex life, or criminal record (including material regarding the suspicion of criminal acts) according to the assorted personal data categories recognized by data privacy laws of Europe and elsewhere. The term “child data” means information about a data subject less than 16 years old.

Third Party Account Data. We do not warehouse passwords you employ when accessing Third Party Services. When you permit us to connect with any Third Party Service, for example, a social media account or another comparable one, you allow us to access and store your email address(es), current location, profile photo, URL, and other information the Third Party Service gives us access to. You also authorize us to use and disclose it in accordance with their Privacy Policy. So, we recommend you check your privacy settings on these Third Party Services to understand the information sent to us through these services and change those privacy setting if needed. We transmit and sometimes store, such account data, only if we must, to get in touch with you, and only as the policies and terms of the Third Party Services allow.
