The Personal Information we gather may be shared with third parties for the purposes outlined in the “Our Purposes for Collecting Personal Information” section under “Ensuring compliance with legal obligations and upholding legal agreements”.

In case of a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or any other transaction where a third party takes over our business, any personal information we have collected from you might be transferred to that third party. However, we will try our best to inform you before your data becomes subject to different privacy and security policies and practices.

We can take the personal information we gather and create data that is grouped, made anonymous, or deidentified by removing information that links it to a specific user. This kind of data can be used and shared with third parties for legitimate business reasons such as analyzing and enhancing our Services and promoting our business. However, we will not disclose this data in a way that could identify you.

Our Services use cookies and comparable technologies to gather information about how you use them, to offer you a customized experience, enhance our products and services, and sometimes, show you ads that are likely to interest you. To modify your information collection settings, simply click on the “Cookie preferences” option.

When you visit websites, your web browser stores small text files called cookies (referred to as “Cookies”). You can manage how websites use cookies by adjusting the privacy settings on your browser. It’s important to note that if you disable cookies completely, our Services may not work correctly. To learn more about controlling cookies, you can refer to your browser’s help function.

Postpace.io and its business partners utilize Cookies for various purposes, including:

• Verifying and recognizing your identity on our web pages to be able to deliver the Services you have asked for;
• Maintaining a record of all the details that you have given us;
• Offering you the Site that you utilize;
• Recalling your preferences or the point at which you stopped using the Site;
• Collecting data on how you use Postpace.io websites to enhance their quality, customize them according to your probable preferences, and carry out market analysis;

We use web beacons and embedded scripts in our websites, as well as in some emails and ads. 

“Web beacons” refer to small pieces of programming code that are present in web pages, emails, and ads, and they notify us or our business partners when those web pages, emails, or ads are viewed or clicked on.

“Embedded scripts” refer to small pieces of programming code that are present on some of our web pages. These scripts track your behavior while you use our websites, such as which links you click on. We use this data to enhance our websites, customize them according to your interests, conduct market research, and prevent fraudulent activities. You can disable scripting functionality, such as JavaScript, in your browser by referring to its help section. However, disabling this feature may result in the Site not working correctly.

Our Services may display ads, and we may also permit third-party ad networks such as ad agencies, ad servers, ad technology vendors, and research firms to display ads. These ads may be tailored to users who belong to specific profile categories or exhibit certain preferences or behaviors (known as “Interest-Based Ads”). Personal Information for Interest-Based Ads, including user data, may be obtained either directly from you or through the usage patterns of particular users on our Services and/or third-party services.

We adhere to the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising set forth by the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA). The DAA and Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) have collaborated with various media and marketing associations to establish a self-regulatory initiative that enables consumers to have a more comprehensive grasp of advertisements that are personalized based on their online activities across various websites and domains. This program also grants consumers more authority over such advertisements.

If you want to decide on Interest-Based Ads provided by third parties who are part of certain groups and choose to opt out of them, please refer to:

• Digital Advertising Alliance
• Network Advertising Initiative
• European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (“EDAA”)

If you wish to avoid receiving ads in mobile applications that are customized according to your potential interests, you can choose to opt out by either:

• Set the preference on your mobile device to limit ad tracking, or
• Download the DAA’s AppChoices app

It is recommended that you check the privacy policies of the websites and mobile applications that you utilize as they may provide extra options for safeguarding your privacy.

In certain locations, some laws give you specific entitlements regarding your personal data. These rights include the ability to request a copy of your Personal Information, to rectify, erase, or restrict the handling of your Personal Information, and to receive the Personal Information you have given us for a contract or with your consent in a structured, machine-readable format. You can also request that we transfer this data to another controller. Additional rights may be available to you based on the data privacy laws applicable to your area.

Your rights to access, correct, or delete Personal Information may have limitations. These limitations can occur if fulfilling your request would disclose another person’s Personal Information or if the information is required by law or necessary to defend claims against us. To verify your identity and request, we may ask for additional Personal Information. To exercise these rights, you can contact us using the information provided. Alternatively, you may be able to access, correct, or delete some Personal Information through your account login.

Furthermore, you can refer to the sections labeled “Additional US State Privacy Rights” and “Information for European Union Data Subjects” below to gain more knowledge regarding the entitlements of rights you might possess.

The Personal Information you provide may be used by Postpace.io and third-party marketing companies we engage to offer you promotions and updates about Postpace.io.

If we require your consent for processing your Personal Information, you have the right to revoke it. However, we may have other lawful reasons to process your information for various purposes, as mentioned above. We may also send you direct marketing without your consent if it is justified by our legitimate interests. Nevertheless, you have the unrestricted right to opt out of direct marketing or profiling we conduct for direct marketing at any time by:

• updating your preferences in your specific website or app account(s);
• clicking on the unsubscribe link in the email footer;
• connecting with us through our online support chat; or
• contacting us using the details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.

We aim to safeguard your Personal Information against any unauthorized access, use, or disclosure by utilizing suitable physical, technical, organizational, and administrative security measures that are determined by the type of data and its processing. You can also contribute to the protection of your Personal Information by ensuring the proper selection and security of your password and sign-on methods, restricting access to your device, and logging out after accessing your Account. Even though we take measures to secure your account and other information, it’s important to note that transmitting and storing data on the internet is not entirely foolproof.

The Personal Information we collect from you will be kept for as long as you have an active account with us, or as long as it is necessary for us to provide you with our Services. Once you close your account, we will delete certain Personal Information that we no longer need to keep for business purposes. However, we may have to keep some Personal Information for a longer period if it is required by law or regulations, needed to settle disputes or collect fees, or if we have a legitimate reason to do so.

Under the Terms of Service, we don’t intentionally gather or ask for Personal Information from minors under 13 years old, and our Services are not meant for minors under the age of 13. You are not allowed to use our Services if you are under 13 years old and shall therefore refrain from sharing any Personal Information with us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Information from a minor under 13 years old, we will erase that information as soon as possible. If you believe that a minor under 13 years old may have given us Personal Information, please contact us at Help@postpace.io.

Several states in the United States have enacted privacy laws tailored to their particular jurisdiction. This section of our Privacy Policy serves as an addition to clarify your privacy entitlements as a resident of one of these states, furnish required disclosures regarding how we manage your personal information, and incorporate the following:

• Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and Virginia specific disclosures and rights;
• California specific disclosures and rights;
• Opt-outs for sale or sharing of personal information;
• Metrics on consumers exercising their rights.

If you live in Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, or Virginia, there are specific responsibilities we have and certain entitlements you have concerning your Personal Information. These obligations and rights apply to you:

• Right to correct inaccuracies in Personal Information;
• Right to delete Personal Information;
• Right of data portability;
• Right to opt out from targeted advertising; and
• Right to opt-out from the sale of Personal Information.

Some states, like Virginia, Colorado, and Connecticut, allow individuals to refuse to be profiled for making important decisions that affect them legally or similarly, and they also have the right to challenge a decision related to their request to exercise these rights.

If you want to use any of these entitlements, kindly refer to the section named “My rights regarding my Personal Information?” mentioned above. In case you don’t want to receive personalized advertisements or permit the transfer or sharing of your Personal Information, please refer to the instructions below.

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2021) (“CCPA”) requires us to provide California consumers with some additional information related to how Postpace.io collects, uses, retains, and discloses Personal Information as well as describe additional rights, which are summarized below.

We collect, use, disclose, sell, share, and retain Personal Information as further described in this Privacy Policy and summarized below.

We collect the categories of Personal Information described above in the section “Categories of Personal Information.”

The “Categories of Sources of Personal Information” section above details the sources of Personal Information that we collect from you.

The “Our Purposes for Collecting Personal Information” section above details the business or commercial purposes for collecting Personal Information from you.

The “Data Security and Retention” section above details how long Postpace.io retains Personal Information.

California consumers have certain rights with respect to their Personal Information. These rights include the following:

1. Right to opt out of “selling” or “sharing” certain Personal Information

Under CCPA regulations, you have the right to choose not to have your personal information sold or shared in the future. We are obligated to specify which categories of Personal Information we sell or share with third parties, as well as provide instructions on how to opt-out of such sales or sharing. According to CCPA guidelines, such personal information includes internet or electronic network activity data, such as IP addresses, cookie IDs, and mobile IDs. The law has a broad definition of “sale” or “share,” which can include merely making data available to third parties in certain circumstances.

To opt out of selling or sharing for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising you can:

• To review your preferences and opt out of advertising cookies and other technologies used for cross-context behavioral advertising in your browser, click on “Cookie preferences“. It’s important to note that if you access Postpace.io using multiple browsers, you will need to opt out from each one individually.
• If you want to prevent your customer record information from being sold or shared for cross-context behavioral advertising and partner marketing, you can get in touch with us using the contact details mentioned at the end of this Privacy Policy.

Additionally, opting for these options will not entirely prevent interest-targeted advertisements, such as those based on contextual factors.

2. Right to Know or Request Categories of Personal Information

You are entitled to ask us to disclose the Personal Information we have gathered about you, as well as to ask for further details about how we have collected, used, disclosed, or sold your Personal Information. This includes requesting a list of the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you, along with related information such as where we obtained it from, which categories of information we shared or sold to third parties, and the reason for such sharing. All of this information is available in the section “Categories of Personal Information” above.

3. Right to Correct.

You have a right to request the correction of inaccurate Personal Information.

4. Right to Request Deletion

You have the right to request that we delete the Personal Information that we have collected about you, subject to certain exceptions.

5. Right to Designate an Authorized Agent

If you want someone else to act on your behalf to exercise your rights, you can appoint an authorized agent. However, for the security of your Personal Information, the authorized agent needs to submit a request that meets two criteria. First, it should provide enough information for us to verify that you are the person whose Personal Information we have collected. Second, it should describe the request in enough detail for us to understand, evaluate and respond to it. If a request meets both criteria, it will be considered a “Valid Request.” We will only use the Personal Information provided in a Valid Request to confirm your identity and fulfill your request. You don’t need an account to make a Valid Request.

6. Right against Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the CCPA.

7. Right to Notice

You have a right to receive notice of our practices at or before collection of personal information

You are entitled to utilize the privileges outlined in our Privacy Policy without any payment or punishment, but we may restrict the number of requests you make or impose fair fees as allowed by law. You can carry out many of these rights by modifying your settings as explained in the Privacy Policy, or by contacting us using the contact details provided at the conclusion of the Privacy Policy.

If you reside in the European Union (“EU”), United Kingdom, Lichtenstein, Norway, or Iceland, you may have further entitlements concerning your personal information under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”), as specified below.

In this part, the definitions of “Personal Information” and “processing” are based on the GDPR, although “Personal Information” typically refers to data that can identify an individual, while “processing” encompasses various actions related to data, such as gathering, utilizing, keeping, and revealing it. Postpace.io will act as the controller for the Personal Information we obtain.

In case of any inconsistencies between this section and other parts of the Privacy Policy, the section that offers greater protection for Personal Information will be given priority. If you have any doubts regarding this section or if any of its content applies to you, you can reach out to us at Help@postpace.io. Please note that we may handle the Personal Information of customers’ employees or end-users as part of the services we offer to customers, and in such cases, we are the processor of Personal Information. If we are processing your Personal Information as a processor (and not as the controller), please contact the controller party initially to address your rights related to such data.

The “Our Purposes for Collecting Personal Information” section above explains how we use your Personal Information.

The Services are provided via Postpace.io and its service providers in the United States, but we also transfer Personal Information to other countries worldwide where our Services are accessible. We comply with relevant laws when making such transfers, such as by setting up data transfer agreements to safeguard your Personal Information. If Postpace.io transfers your Personal Information to a country that is not part of the EEA and does not have a European Commission adequacy decision, we rely on legal mechanisms such as European Commission-approved Standard Contractual Clauses or your consent in specific situations.

When an update occurs, the date at the top of the policy will change, and the revised policy will be posted on this page. It is recommended that you periodically review the Privacy Policy to stay informed about the information we collect, how we use it, and when we may share it. We may also provide notice to you of significant changes, and in some cases, we may obtain your consent. Notice can be provided through email, by posting a notice on our Services, or by other means allowed by law.
