We may share a Contact’s personal information with our service providers who develop certain features and functionality that integrate with our Solution, provided that such sharing is authorized by the relevant Customer. This allows us to make certain features of our services available to our Customer. We impose obligations on our service providers to ensure they use Contact Data in a manner consistent with our use and consistent with applicable privacy laws.

We may also disclose a Contact’s personal information as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or other legal process.

We are located in the United States, however Contact Data and communications may be transferred to and maintained on servers or databases located outside a Contact’s respective state, province, or country. Additionally, we may process and store such Contact’s personal information via our vendors in multiple locations, including without limitation, the United States, Canada, the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and other countries.

 

Although we will make all reasonable efforts to ensure a Contact’s personal information is protected in accordance with our obligations, the laws in these countries may not be as protective of privacy laws in an individual Contact’s location. Personal information processed and stored in another country may be subject to disclosure or access requests by the governments, courts or law enforcement or regulatory agencies in that country according to its laws.

 

Choice/Opt-Out

 

Contacts may opt out of text messaging sent to them from one of our Customers simply by replying “STOP” to the number that sent the applicable message.
 

Requests Related to Your Personal Information
 

We do not own the Contact Data held by each of our individual Customers. We are a “data processor” or “service provider”, which means that we have an obligation to keep your Contact Data safe and secure. We take instructions from our individual Customers who are the “data controllers” or “businesses” (to the extent such privacy laws apply to them) to send communications on their behalf and to assist them with fulfilling data subject rights requests made directly to them, such as correcting or deleting an individual’s Contact’s personal information. If a Contact’s personal information is held in our database, it is our Customer’s responsibility to deal with a Contact’s request in their role as a data controller and to the extent necessary, we will support them.

If a Contact has a query or would like to make a data subject rights request under applicable privacy laws, we recommend that a Contact reply to the email address or text message on the communication actually received for further information as we are unable to provide any additional information about our Customers.
