2. Information We Process on Behalf of our Customers
Our Services are intended for use by our business customers. As a result, for much of the Personal Data we process through the Services, we act as a processor or service provider on behalf of our business customers. This means that it is our business customers that control what Personal Data we collect through the Services and how we use it. Where our activities as a processor or service provider are clear and consistent across our customer base, we have described those activities herein in the interests of transparency. However, if you are a Service User, and have privacy related questions or concerns about the privacy practices of or the choices the relevant business customer has made regarding your information via the Services, you should contact the relevant customer (e.g. your employer) directly or review their privacy notices.

5. Our Disclosure of Your Personal Data
Secureframe is not in the business of selling your information for monetary consideration. We consider this information to be a vital part of our relationship with you and we only share it where reasonably necessary to provide our services to you or enhance our relationship with you. There are, however, certain circumstances in which we may share your Personal Data with certain third parties without further notice to you. The types of entities to whom we disclose and have disclosed information within the last 12 months, include:
Affiliates: We may share all categories of your Personal Data with our affiliates for internal business purposes. For example, for customer support, marketing, or technical operations.
Third-party service providers: Our service providers may process all categories of your information in connection with their work on our behalf and are contractually prohibited from retaining, using, or disclosing your information for any purpose other than to provide this assistance, although we may permit them to use aggregate information which does not identify you or de-identified data for other commercial purposes. We may also share your Personal Data with our marketing service providers to help us better market our products and services to you. These marketing service providers may use your Personal Data only for the purpose of helping us to provide relevant products and services information to you and are expressly obligated not to disclose your Personal Data to others. If you do not want us to use your Personal Data for these marketing purposes, you can opt out by contacting us at privacy@secureframe.com.
Vendors, Agents, Consultants and Related Third Parties: Secureframe, like many businesses, sometimes hires other companies to perform certain business-related functions. Examples of such functions include mailing information, maintaining databases, analytics and marketing or advertising services, and processing payments. When we employ another entity to perform a function of this nature, we only provide them with the information that they need to perform their specific function. These third parties may act as our service providers, or in certain contexts, independently decide how to process your Personal Data.
Partners: Secureframe may share business contact information, marketing information, troubleshooting and support data with business partners of ours (including referral partners, resellers, and managed service providers), for the purpose of assisting with sales, marketing and support activities.
Merger or acquisition: We may share all categories of your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any proposed or actual merger, purchase, sale or any other type of acquisition or business combination of all or any portion of our assets, or transfer of all or a portion of our business to another business.
Legal Requirements: Secureframe may disclose any categories your Personal Data if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) comply with a legal obligation or other legal process, and where required, in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, (ii) protect and defend the rights or property of Secureframe, (iii) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of the Services or the public, or (iv) protect against legal liability.
Consent: To any other person you have consented to us sharing Personal Data.
Without limiting the foregoing, we may share aggregated information which does not identify you or de-identified information with other parties or affiliates except as prohibited by applicable law. For information on your rights and choices regarding how we share your information, please see Your Privacy Rights and Choices.
You can block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. However, if you use your browser settings to block all cookies (including essential cookies) you may not be able to access all or parts of the Site.

8. Security
Secureframe takes reasonable administrative, physical and electronic measures designed to protect your Personal Data from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no Internet or email transmission is ever fully secure or error free. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Data. Please keep this in mind when disclosing any Personal Data to Secureframe via the Internet.
9. Retention
We may retain your Personal Data for as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected, or for other essential purposes such as complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements. Because these needs can vary for different data types in the context of different services, actual retention periods can vary. We determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Data based on the amount, nature and sensitivity of your Personal Data processed, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your Personal Data and whether we can achieve the purposes of the processing through other means, as well as applicable legal requirements (such as applicable statutes of limitation). After expiry of the applicable retention periods, your Personal Data will be deleted. If there is any data that we are unable, for technical reasons, to delete entirely from our systems, we will put in place appropriate measures to prevent any further use of that data. For further information on applicable data retention periods, please see the section entitled Contact Secureframe.
10. Transfers of Your Personal Data
Personal Data we collect may be stored and processed in your region, in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom or any other country where we or our affiliates, subsidiaries or service providers maintain facilities. We maintain primary data hosting centers in the United States. We take steps designed to ensure that the data we collect under this Privacy Policy is processed as described in this Privacy Policy and according to applicable law wherever the data is located.
Therefore, we may transfer Personal Data from the European Economic Area (EEA), UK and Switzerland (collectively, “Europe”) to other countries that may not have the same level of data protection that applies in your jurisdiction. In these cases, we use a variety of legal mechanisms to ensure that the recipient of your Personal Data offers an adequate level of protection, including entering into the standard contractual clauses for the transfer of European data approved by the European Commission, or where required, we will ask you for your prior consent.
11. Additional Disclosures for U.S. Residents
This section describes how Secureframe collects, uses and discloses your Personal Data pursuant to the following U.S. state privacy laws:

Since the rules and regulations implementing some of these laws have not yet been finalized, we will continue to update our processes and disclosures as well as this section once these implementing rules and regulations are finalized. Certain terms used herein have the meanings given to them in the respective state privacy laws.
Categories, Sources, and Use of Personal Data we collect:
The categories of Personal Data we collect and the sources from which we collect it are described in detail in the section entitled The Personal Data We Collect. The business and commercial purposes for which we collect this information are described in the section entitled Our Use of Your Personal Data.
In addition, and specifically with respect to job applicants, Secureframe may collect Personal Data:

Sale or Disclosure of Personal Data
This section only applies where Secureframe is acting as a business, and not a service provider, under applicable US data protection laws. The categories of third parties to whom we "disclose" your Personal Data, and the categories of information disclosed for a business purpose are described in the section entitled Our Disclosure of Your Personal Data.
When we disclose Personal Data for a Business Purpose, we enter into a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to keep that Personal Data confidential and use it only for the purposes specified in the contract, and not for any other purpose.

While Secureframe does not sell Personal Data in exchange for any monetary consideration, we may share Personal Data for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes and for other benefits as defined by certain state privacy laws, such as the CCPA under Cal. Civ. Code 1798.140(ad)(2). Some of our processing activities may also constitute “targeted advertising” as that term is defined under certain state laws.
We have shared in the preceding 12 months Personal Data as necessary for business purposes, as defined by Cal. Civ. Code 1798.140. This includes sharing personal identifiers, commercial information, and internet or other electronic network activity with customer relationship management, consulting, email, product feedback, helpdesk services, advertising networks and website analytics companies.
We make Personal Data available to the following categories of third parties:
- partners (including analytics providers);
- marketing service providers;
- affiliated persons, third-party service providers and partners assisting us in the operation, management, improvement, research and analysis of the Site, Marketing Activities and Services. Affiliated persons or our third-party service providers may augment, extend, and combine non-personally identifiable information with data from additional third-party sources in order to assist us with the above. Use of information by affiliated persons and third-party service providers will be subject to this Policy or an agreement that is at least as restrictive as this Policy.
You have a right to direct Secureframe not to sell or share your Personal Data. We do not have actual knowledge that we have sold or shared Personal Data of individuals under the age of 16 for targeted advertising or cross-context behavioral advertising purposes.

Secureframe does not knowingly collect, use or disclose any sensitive personal information, as defined by the CCPA, for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you. Accordingly, submitting a request to limit the use of your sensitive Personal Information is not required.
Right to Not Receive Discriminatory Treatment
You have the right to not receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your CCPA privacy rights. We do not use the fact that you have exercised or requested to exercise any CCPA rights for any purpose other than facilitating a response to your request.
You can contact us with your request through one of the contact methods described under the Contact Secureframe section below.
We may ask you to provide information that will enable us to verify your identity in order to comply with your request to exercise your privacy rights. Consumers in some states may also authorize an agent to make requests on their behalf. In particular, if you are a California resident, or if you are an authorized agent wishing to exercise CCPA rights on behalf of someone else, please contact us via email at privacy@secureframe.com. Please include your full name and email address along with why you are writing so that we can process your request in a timely manner. In some instances, we may decline to honor your request if an exception applies under applicable law. We will respond to your request in accordance with the requirements of applicable law.
Please note that if your information has been processed by Secureframe on behalf of a customer and you wish to exercise any rights you have with such Personal Data, please inquire with our customer directly. If you wish to make your request directly to Secureframe, please provide the name of the Secureframe customer on whose behalf Secureframe processed your information. We will refer your request to that customer and will support them to the extent required by applicable law in responding to your request.
Please note that to protect your Personal Data, we will verify your identity by a method appropriate to the type of request you are making. We may also request that your authorized agent (as applicable) have written permission from you to make requests on your behalf, and we may also need to verify your authorized agent's identity to protect your Personal Data.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Data if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Data relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use Personal Data provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
You may have the right to appeal our decisions made with respect to your request. To appeal our decision on your request, you may contact us through one of the contact methods described under the section titled Contact Secureframe. Please enclose a copy of, or otherwise specifically reference, our decision on your request, so that we may adequately address your appeal. We will respond to your appeal in accordance with applicable law.
