Personal Data we collect directly from you

Business profiles 

The ZenBee platform processes and combines this information using complex Algorithms to create profiles of professionals and businesses. This information is made available to our customers and partners. This information includes, but is not limited to, name, company’s email address, job title, department, phone number, company name, company’s postal address, and employment history. Business profiles also include links to publications available in the public domain, and links to social media profiles.

ZenBee obtains data for its Business Profiles in the following ways:

  • Licensing of information from third-parties;

Customer information

ZenBee may collect the following information about our customers:

  • Personal contact information of users of our platform;
  • Information uploaded by a customer onto our platform;
  • Logs of a customer’s usage of the platform to provide a more personalized user experience, e.g., timestamps, IP address, and actions taken.

In a company that has multiple users using a company-level account, one user may have a higher level of access, which grants them access to the personal information of other users with a lower level of access. If there are any concerns about the privacy of a user’s account information at the company level, the relevant company should be contacted.

ZenBee may use customer information in the following ways:

  • Reaching out to users to respond to any inquires and address any concerns;

By submitting any information through the site, the user agrees to all terms and conditions of this policy. If you do not agree to these terms, you should not use the site and delete the cookies stored in your browser.

Purchasers of our online services are required to provide credit card information. ZenBee will only use this information to fulfill your purchase request. ZenBee will store only the first four digits of the 16-digit card number for identification purposes (We are not storing credit card information even in encrypted form. It is getting stored in Stripe, a third party payment gateway trusted worldwide. We only store the first four digits of the 16 digit card number for identification purposes.).

Information received from Third Parties

ZenBee may collect personal information from our current or future affiliates, subsidiaries, or parent companies. ZenBee may use this information to enrich existing customer information and improve the accuracy of our data.

We may also receive information from third parties, such as:

  • Our affiliates, when it is necessary to properly provide services and/or conduct business. We may also receive system performance information from our affiliates for processing purposes.
  • Our authorized intermediaries, distributors, and partners, if there is a lawful basis to do so. For example, if you purchase access to the services through one of these partners.
  • Other third parties, such as through email campaigns, marketing partners, and publicly available sources. We may use this information to improve the information that we already maintain about you and to enhance the accuracy of our records, in addition to other purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
  • Social media and authentication services. We may have access to certain information from a third-party social media or authentication service if you log into our services through the service or otherwise provide us with access to information from the service. Any access that we may have to such information from a third-party social or authentication service is conducted in accordance with the authorization procedures determined by that service. By allowing us to connect to a third-party service, you permit us to access and store your name, email address(es), current city, profile picture URL, and other information that the third-party service makes available to us, and to use and disclose it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You should check your privacy settings on these third-party services to understand and change the information sent to us through these services.

Information collected automatically

  • Web logs

As is true with most Websites and Services delivered over the Internet, we gather certain information and store it in log files when you interact with our Websites and SaaS Products. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses as well as browser type, internet service provider, URLs of landing/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, information you search for, language settings, identification numbers associated with your devices, your mobile carrier, and system configuration information. In the case of our SaaS Product, the URLs you accessed (and therefore included in our log files) may include usernames as well as elements of content as necessary for the SaaS Product to perform the requested operations. Occasionally, we link Personal Data to information gathered in our log files as necessary to improve our Services for individual customers. In such a case, we treat the combined information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

  • Analytics from the website and SaaS products

We collect analytical information when you use our Websites and SaaS Products to help us improve our Products and Services. In SaaS Products, this analytical information includes the features and functions of our Service being used, the associated license identifier (SEN), and the domain name, username, and IP address of the person using the feature (which will include Personal Data if the username includes Personal Data), the sizes and original filenames of attachments, as well as additional information necessary to detail how the feature works and what parts of our Services are affected.

  • Analytical information derived from content

Analytical information also consists of data we collect as a result of executing queries on Content within our user base to generate Usage Data.

Although we may encounter sensitive or Personal Data when collecting Usage Data from Content across various user instances, this is a byproduct of our efforts to understand broader patterns and trends.

  • Google analytics

Our Services use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland). The use includes the “Universal Analytics” operating mode. This mode facilitates the assignment of data, sessions, and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID, thus enabling the analysis of a user’s activities across devices. This analysis is governed by Google’s privacy statement, which you should read.

  • Cookie

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. The session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. Cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users, thereby enhancing the experience on our site. Enabling these cookies is not strictly necessary for the website to function but it will provide you with a better browsing experience. You can delete or block these cookies, but if you do so, some features of this site may not function as intended.

When you visit our Websites, we or an authorized third party may place a cookie on your device that collects information, including Personal Data, about your online activities over time and across different sites. Cookies enable us to track usage, infer your browsing preferences, and enhance and customize your browsing experience.

Our Services and Websites utilize the following types of cookies:

  • Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the general functioning of our Services, such as enabling page navigation.
  • Preference Cookies: These cookies collect information that changes the way our Services behave or look, such as managing cache mismatches for the quality assurance toolset, saving data about pagination in tables, and recording information about sidebar state. Declining these cookies may affect your user experience.
  • Statistic Cookies: These cookies help us understand how you interact with our Services by collecting and reporting anonymized information, thereby improving the performance of our Services.

We may use other third-party cookies installed on our Services.

In many cases, you can opt out of the collection of non-essential device and usage data in your web browser by managing cookies at the browser or device level. However, please note that blocking or deleting cookies and similar technologies used on our Websites may prevent you from taking full advantage of the Websites.

  • Other tracking technologies

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track website visitors. We may use other similar technologies from time to time, such as pixel tags (also known as web beacons or clear GIFs). These are tiny graphic files that contain a unique identifier, permitting us to recognize when someone has visited our Websites or to track the online movements of Website users. This information helps us better manage the Website by informing us what content is effective and improving the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, pixels are embedded invisibly on Website pages. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly; therefore, declining cookies will impair their functioning.

  • Functions of social networks

Our Websites may use social media features, such as the Facebook Like buttons, the Tweet button, and other sharing widgets (“Social Media Features”). Social Media Features may allow you to post information about your activities on our website to external platforms and social networks. They may also enable you to like or highlight information we have posted on our website or on our branded social media pages. Social Media Features are either hosted by the respective platforms or directly on our website. If Social Media Features are hosted on the platforms themselves and you access them from our Websites, the platform may receive information indicating that you have visited our Websites. If you are logged into your social media account, it is possible that the relevant social network may link your visit to our Websites with your social media profile.

We also allow you to log in to certain of our Websites using login services such as Facebook Connect. These services verify your identity and give you the option to share certain personal data with us, such as your name and email address, to pre-populate our registration forms.

Your interactions with Social Media Features and login services are governed by the privacy policies of the companies that provide them.

Certain ZenBee Services require access to the user’s email and calendar service providers.

The information collected from the calendar will include meeting participants, meeting description, topic, date, and time of the meeting. Information collected from Google Accounts will comply with the Google API User Data Policy, including its limited use requirements.

Exercising Your Rights.

To protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access or deletion, we may require you to verify your login credentials before you can submit a request to know or delete Personal Information.

You may also submit a request to know or a request to delete your Personal Information through an authorized agent. If you do so, the agent must present signed written permission to act on your behalf, and you may also be required to independently verify your identity with us.

Without limiting our ability to disclose information for purposes of the California Consumer Privacy Act, we do not and will not sell your Personal Data.

    • or in certain circumstances, if we are processing your Personal Data for direct marketing.
  • Right to Withdraw Consent (Art 7 (3) GDPR): If we rely on your consent to process your Personal Data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time, but this will not affect any processing of your data that has already taken place.
