CompanyCam Privacy Policy
Updated May 6, 2024
Your privacy is important to us.
We at CompanyCam, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “CompanyCam”) respect your privacy, and we don’t ask for information unless we truly need it. We do not collect Personal Information from children under the age of 16 without parental consent. As a data processor, we have limited control over the information provided to us by our users. When you provide data in that sense, you are subject to the Terms of Use. In some limited cases, we may collect information ourselves, but such collection is limited to the information we need to provide you the services.
The Right to Know
We believe in your right to know what companies are collecting about you and why. This Privacy Policy lays out the details about what we have and what we use it for. Please review it carefully, and if you don’t agree with what we lay out here, please stop using the app and contact us with any questions we can answer.
Collection of Personal Information
“Personal Information” is information that can be used to identify you as an individual, either alone or taken with other information we collect. Over the course of providing you the services, we may ask for:
Contact information such as your name, and email address;
Employment information such as your company name, your title, and other company details including address and phone number;
Financial information such as your billing information; and
Location information including your address, IP address, and location data
We collect this information in order to provide our services to you, generally directly from you. We may request the information specifically, or we may collect it through your engagement with certain aspects of our services such as message boards or forums. We do not collect the content of such messages, but we may collect information about the message senders and recipients in order to improve our services. We do not sell or otherwise dispose of your data, though we may transfer it to certain third parties as outlined below.
The lawful basis for our collection of your information is listed below. Where we collect information with your consent (evidenced by your direct provision of the information to us), you can revoke that consent at any time.
Contact Information Necessary in order to perform our contract with you
Employment Information It is in our legitimate business interest to collect information about the types of company using our services. We also use this information to connect individual accounts to their organization and We only collect this information with your consent
Financial Information Necessary in order to perform our contract with you (for billing activities)
Location Information This is automatically collected and used for analytical purposes. Your address is collected in order to perform our contract with you (for billing purposes), and your IP address and location data is anonymized/not used to personally identify you.
If you interact with a third party service when using our services, such as if you use Facebook or Google to log-in, or if you share content from our services through a third party service through an integration, we may receive additional Personal Information about you. We only request information as set out above, and we use this information for our legitimate business interest of personalizing the services to improve your experience. We do not purchase or otherwise acquire any Personal Information about you without your knowledge.
Data Subjects
When our customers use the Services, they often input information about their clients (the person whose property they are working on, their “Clients”). We do not use this information for any purpose except to store it and process it on behalf of our customers (we do not use it for our own internal purposes, nor do we sell it in any form). We treat this information as highly confidential and it is entitled to our highest available levels of protection including encryption while on our systems. This information often includes information that would identify the Client individually, such as:
The Client’s address
The Client’s phone number, email address, or other ways to contact them.
The Client’s name
Photographs of the Client’s property
If you are a Client of one of our customers, you have certain rights related to this data that we have about you. We require that our customers notify you that they will be using CompanyCam, and that they get your consent before sharing your personal information with us. If you feel that your information or photographs of your personal space were uploaded to our app without your consent, please contact us and we will remove them as quickly as possible. Our customers promise that they have your permission to input this information/upload these photos and that the photos won’t include any personal information about you, but we do not actively monitor uploaded photos to check for personal information included in them. We also require that our customers do not input any personal information belonging to you where it does not belong (outside of a field specifically meant for that piece of information), but we cannot guarantee their compliance with this requirement. If there is a problem, please see the “Your Rights to Your Personal Information” section below for more details about your rights in information that is about you.
Collection from Third Party Sources
We receive information about you from other users, from third party services, and from our business and channel partners.
Other users of the services
Other users of our services may provide information about you when they submit content through the services. For example, you may be mentioned by someone else on a task, or a team member may upload content about you to CompanyCam. We also receive your email address from other users when they provide it in order to invite you to the services. Similarly, an administrator may provide your contact information when they designate you as another administrator for a task, team or an organizational account.
Other services you link to your account:
We receive information about you when you or your administrator enable third-party apps or integrate or link a third-party service with our services. For example, you or your administrator may also integrate our services with other services you use, such as to allow you to access, store, share and edit certain content from a third-party through our services. For example, you may authorize our services to access and display files from a third-party document-sharing service within the services interface. The information we receive when you link or integrate our services with a third-party service depends on the settings, permissions and privacy policy controlled by that third-party service. CompanyCam’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. You should always check the privacy settings and notices in these third-party services to understand what data may be disclosed to us or shared with our services.
Other partners
We receive information about you and your activities on and off the services from third-party partners, such as advertising and market research partners who provide us with information about your interest in, and engagement with, our services and online advertisements.
Analytics
Like nearly every website owner out there, we use a variety of analytical tools to make sure that your experience on our website and in our products is as excellent as it can be. Our analytics tools (listed below) generally use cookies to perform their services. You are able to opt-out of cookies at any time, but please be aware that disabling some cookies may cause the services to stop working as intended. To opt-out, you can use the native tools in your browser, or you can use the Network Advertising Initiative Opt-Out Tool.
You are encouraged to use the links below to check out the privacy policies of our third party vendors. We do not transfer any information to these vendors, it is collected by their tools when you visit our website and use our services.
Collection of Nonpersonal Information
Nonpersonal information is information that cannot be used to identify you as an individual, either because it is insufficient to identify you without being combined with other collected data, or because it has been aggregated and anonymized so that it cannot be used to identify you. We collect certain nonpersonal information automatically through the use of cookies and other web beacons to gather information that we can use to improve the services. This may include your browser type, your click information, and other information that we can use for analytics. You can disable cookies and other web services in order to block this automatic collection, but please be advised that such disabling may make the services not work or not work as intended.
