This Privacy Policy describes the types of information we may collect from and about you when you visit this website (the “Website”); use the Cloudgraph services, including all associated features and functionalities, websites, user interfaces, and applications (collectively, the “Services”); engage with us through our newsletters, emails, and branded social media accounts; or otherwise interact with us.

By using this Services, you consent to the collection and use of your Personal Data as described herein. If you do not agree with the terms set out herein, please do not use the Services.

If Cloudgraph decides to make changes to this Privacy Statement, Cloudgraph will post the changes on this website and will attempt to notify you via email or through the Services.

To what data does this Privacy Policy apply?

In these situations, we only process customer information in accordance with our customer’s instructions and our agreement with that customer. By using any of Cloudgraph’s Services, you confirm you have agreed to the Site Terms and/or Cloudgraph Terms of Service (the “Terms”), to the extent permitted by law, and have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

The technologies we use for automatic data collection may include cookies. A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your device. You can disable cookies, limit the types of cookies you allow, or set your browser to alert you when cookies are being sent.

We may provide links to or otherwise integrate third-party websites, services, and applications that are not operated or controlled by Cloudgraph. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the privacy practices of those third parties. The fact that we link to a website, service, or application is not an endorsement, authorization, or representation of our affiliation with that third party. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party service before providing any personal data to or through them. If you click on a link to a third-party website, such third parties may also transmit cookies to you.

How do we use your information?

We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any personal data, for purposes described in this Privacy Policy and when the law allows us to do so. For example, we use your information for the following purposes:

Our legal bases for handling your information

The laws in some jurisdictions require companies to tell you about the legal ground they rely on to use or disclose your personal data. To the extent those laws apply, our legal grounds are as follows:

Where the use of your information is necessary for the performance of a contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you;
Where the use is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests (or those of a third party);
Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation;
Where you have given your consent, which can be withdrawn at any time;

Where do we store and process your data?

We may store and process any information that we collect (personal or otherwise) ourselves or in databases and servers owned and maintained by us, our affiliates, agents, or service providers, including without limitation in a Cloudgraph-owned AWS account. If you access or use the Services outside of the United States, information that we collect about you may be transferred to servers inside the United States, or in any country where we have operations or where we engage vendors or service providers. These countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you originally provided the data. By using the Services, or submitting your personal data to us, you consent to such transfer and processing of your information. We may also store some information locally on your computer or other devices. For example, we may store information as local cache so that you can open the Website and view content faster.

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area to a third party in a country that is not subject to an adequacy decision by the EU Commission, data is appropriately protected by Standard Contractual Clauses, an appropriate Privacy Shield certification, or a vendor’s Processor Binding Corporate Rules. If you would like a copy of the relevant mechanism, please contact us at [email protected].

How long do we retain data?

We will only retain your personal data, in a form which permits us to identify you, for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for. We will retain and use your personal data as necessary to satisfy any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements; to resolve disputes; or to enforce our agreements and rights. After this, we will either securely delete or anonymize your personal data so that it cannot be linked back to you.

How do we secure your data?

We understand that the security of your personal data is important. We provide reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security controls to protect your personal data. However, despite our efforts, no security controls are 100% effective. Any transmission of personal data is at your own risk. Cloudgraph cannot and does not guarantee absolute security. If you would like to learn more about our protocols and compliance levels, please reach out to us at [email protected].

With whom could your information be shared?

We may disclose personal data that we collect or you provide as described in this Privacy Policy:

To our current and future parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, and other companies under common control and ownership;
To other users in your organization in connection with the Services;
To service providers, contractors, and other third parties we use to support the Services and our business, including payment processors and marketing support, where they need access to data in order to perform functions on our behalf;
To a potential or actual buyer, assignee, or other successor (including its related advisors and agents) in connection with a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution or other sale or transfer of some or all of Cloudgraph’s assets, whether as a going concern or as part of a bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding;

If we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of Cloudgraph, our customers, or others;

We limit sharing whenever possible

We always attempt to share information that is anonymized or in an aggregated form that does not directly identify you and we may use and share any such information for any purpose without restriction so long as it does not violate the terms of this Privacy Policy or any applicable law. We respect your right to the privacy of your personal data and will use commercially reasonable efforts both to de-identify your personal data and to limit sharing whenever possible.

What rights and choices do you have with respect to our collection and use of your data?

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal data you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your personal data:

‍Tracking Technologies: You can set your browser to refuse some or all browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that all or some parts of the Services may then be inaccessible or not function properly.

‍Promotional Offers from Cloudgraph: If you do not wish to have your email address/contact information used by Cloudgraph to market or otherwise promote our own or third parties’ products or services, you can opt-out at any time through the unsubscribe mechanism at the bottom of the applicable email. It may take up to 10 days to process your request. Please note that if you are a registered user of the Services or if you have engaged in transactions with us, we may continue to send transactional or relationship messages (e.g., signing notifications, terms/privacy updates, or account notifications) after you opt out of marketing messages.

‍Correct or Delete Your Data: If you are a registered user of the Services, you may be able to access, update, or change personal data you have provided through your account settings. For some requests, such as changes to billing information or account data deletion, we may ask you to verify your identity before we can process your request. You may also contact us at any time at [email protected] to change, correct or delete any personal data that you have provided to us. Note that if you delete your personal data, you may not be able to use certain aspects of the Services.

‍Data Requests: Certain privacy laws, including the GDPR and the CCPA provide users with rights related to their personal data. Depending on your location, you may be eligible for a number of rights with respect to your information:
‍
Right to Access & Portability: You may be able to access certain personal data associated with your account by visiting your account settings. You can also request a copy of your personal data in an easily accessible format along with information explaining how that data is used.

Right to Correction: You have the right to request that we correct information about you. By visiting your account settings, you can correct and change certain personal data associated with your account.

Right to Restrict Processing: In certain cases where we process your information, you may also have the right to restrict or limit the ways in which we use your personal data.

Right to Deletion: In certain circumstances, you have the right to request the deletion of your personal data, except information we are required to retain by law, regulation, or to protect the safety, security, and integrity of the Services.

Right to Object: If we process your personal data based on our legitimate interests as explained above, or in the public interest, you can object to this processing in certain circumstances. In such cases, we will stop processing your personal data unless we have a compelling legitimate ground to continue processing or where it is legally necessary.

Right to Withdraw Consent: Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw your consent to our processing by using various means we offer such as an email unsubscribe link or your account settings. This is without prejudice to your right to permanently close your account and delete your personal data.

The CCPA provides California residents with the following additional rights:

Right to Know: California residents may request disclosure of the specific pieces and/or categories of personal data that we have collected about them, the categories of sources for that personal data, the business or commercial purposes for collecting the information, the categories of personal data that we have disclosed, and the categories of third parties with which the information was shared.

Right to Opt-Out: To the extent that Cloudgraph “sells” personal data (as that term is defined under the CCPA), California residents are entitled to opt-out of the “sale” of data at any time (see below for more information).

Limiting use of, or deleting, your personal data may affect features and uses that rely on that information. However, we will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights, including otherwise denying you goods or services, providing you with a different level or quality of services, or charging you different prices or rates for services.

We will consider all requests and provide our response within the time period stated by applicable law. Please note, however, that certain information may be exempt from such requests in some circumstances, which may include if we need to keep processing your information for our legitimate interests or to comply with a legal obligation. Before responding to your request, we may require that you provide us with additional information to confirm your identity. You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. In order to designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, you must provide a valid power of attorney, the requester’s valid government-issued identification, and the authorized agent’s valid government-issued identification. We may verify the authenticity of the request directly with you. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the authorities applicable to your situation. However, we invite you to contact us with any concern, as we would be happy to try to resolve it directly.

Additional Disclosures for California Residents

Notice of Collection: In addition to the rights and choices described above, the CCPA requires disclosure of the categories of personal data collected over the past 12 months. While this information is provided in greater detail in the “What information do we collect about you?” section above, the categories of personal data that we have collected – as described by the CCPA – are:

Identifiers, including name, email address, IP address, and mobile device ID;
Other individual records, such as phone number, billing address, or credit or debit card information. This category includes personal data protected under Cal. Civ. Code 1798.80e and overlaps with other categories listed here;
Commercial information, including subscriptions and engagement with the Services;
Employment information, including company name and job title;
Geolocation data, including general location data derived from IP addresses and location-enabled services such as WiFi;
Inferences, including information about your interests and preferences;
Internet activity, including your interactions with the Services and what led you to Cloudgraph.

The Purposes for Our Collection: We collect and use these categories of personal data for our business and commercial purposes described in the “How do we use your information” section above, including providing and improving the Services, maintaining the safety and security of the Services, and for advertising and marketing our business.

Third-Party Marketing and Your Rights (Opt-Out of “Sale”): Cloudgraph does not sell personal data to third parties for monetary value. However, the term “sale” is defined broadly in the CCPA. To the extent that “sale” under the CCPA is interpreted to include interest-based advertising or other data uses described in the “How do we use your information” section above, we will comply with applicable law with respect to those uses.

“Do Not Track” Signals: We do not recognize or respond to any web browser-initiated “Do Not Track” signals. At present, no universally accepted standard exists on how companies should respond to “Do Not Track” signals. In the event a universally accepted standard is established, we will assess and provide an appropriate response to these signals. If you wish, you can configure most browsers to reject cookies or to notify you when you are sent a cookie, giving you a chance to decide whether or not to accept it. Consult the help section of your browser to learn more about how to do this. Please note that if you choose to remove or reject cookies, this could affect the availability and functionality of the Services.

Shine The Light: California Civil Code §1798.83 permits users of the Website who are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal data to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. Cloudgraph does not share personal data with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
