We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason (i.e., legal basis) to do so under applicable law, like with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services to enter into or fulfill our contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfill our legitimate business interests.

If you are located in the EU or UK, this section applies to you. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on in order to process your personal information. As such, we may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information:

Consent. We may process your information if you have given us permission (i.e., consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

Performance of a Contract. We may process your personal information when we believe it is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations to you, including providing our Services or at your request prior to entering into a contract with you.

Legitimate Interests. We may process your information when we believe it is reasonably necessary to achieve our legitimate business interests and those interests do not outweigh your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms. For example, we may process your personal information for some of the purposes described in order to:

• Send users information about special offers and discounts on our products and services
• Analyze how our Services are used so we can improve them to engage and retain users
• Support our marketing activities
• Diagnose problems and/or prevent fraudulent activities
• Understand how our users use our products and services so we can improve user experience

Legal Obligations. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations, such as to cooperate with a law enforcement body or regulatory agency, exercise or defend our legal rights, or disclose your information as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.

Vital Interests. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party, such as situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person.

If you are located in Canada, this section applies to you. We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (i.e., express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.

In some exceptional cases, we may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent, including, for example:

• If collection is clearly in the interests of an individual and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way
• For investigations and fraud detection and prevention
• For business transactions provided certain conditions are met
• If it is contained in a witness statement and the collection is necessary to assess, process, or settle an insurance claim
• For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next of kin
• If we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may be victim of financial abuse
• If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
• If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records
• If it was produced by an individual in the course of their employment, business, or profession and the collection is consistent with the purposes for which the information was produced
• If the collection is solely for journalistic, artistic, or literary purposes
• If the information is publicly available and is specified by the regulations

Additional Legal Basis for SMS/MMS Communications: When you opt-in to receive SMS/MMS communications from us, your consent serves as the legal basis for processing your phone number and related information for marketing and transactional purposes. You can withdraw this consent at any time as described in the SMS/MMS Marketing and Sales section above.

• Business Transfers. We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.
• When we use third-party providers to facilitate the provision of our services. These third parties include, but are not limited to, payment processors, data storage services, SMS/MMS service providers, and other service providers that perform services for us.
• Calendar Integration Services. When you connect your calendar:
  • We do NOT sell your calendar data to anyone
  • We do NOT use calendar data for advertising
  • We do NOT share calendar data with third parties for marketing
  • Limited sharing: We may share calendar data only with trusted service providers (such as cloud hosting providers) who help us operate our Services, and only to the extent necessary to provide the calendar integration features. These providers are bound by confidentiality agreements.
  • Compliance: Our use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Our use of Microsoft Graph API complies with Microsoft APIs Terms of Use.
• With Consent. We may share your information with your consent or at your direction.

When you opt in to Boop's RCS/SMS messaging program, we collect and use your phone number only to enable the profile-sharing and connection service.

We act as a data processor for our clients and handle their customers' data according to their instructions.

When we process Personal Information on behalf of organizations ('Clients') that want to engage with their customers through our Service, we act as a data processor or service provider for these Clients. Our processing of their customers' Personal Information is governed by our agreements with those Clients and this Privacy Policy.

Customers of our Clients who wish to exercise any privacy rights in connection with their Personal Information should contact the relevant Client directly. Since we only process this data upon instruction from our Clients, customers who make requests directly to us should provide the name of the Client who submitted their Personal Information to us. If we can verify the Client, we will refer the request to them and support them as needed in responding to the request within a reasonable timeframe.

Our platform allows users to collect marketing data and send sales and marketing communications to their own customers.

We provide our users with tools and features to collect marketing data from their customers and send targeted sales and marketing communications through our platform. This includes processing contact information, communication preferences, and interaction data to facilitate these activities.

By using our platform for these purposes, users agree to:

• Obtain appropriate consent from their customers before collecting and using their personal information for marketing purposes.
• Comply with all applicable laws and regulations related to data protection and marketing communications, including but not limited to the CAN-SPAM Act, GDPR, and TCPA.
• Provide clear and easy opt-out mechanisms for their customers to unsubscribe from marketing communications.

We are not responsible for the actions of our users in collecting and using data for their own marketing and sales purposes. Users are solely responsible for ensuring that their data collection and communication practices comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

We may transfer, store, and process your information in countries other than your own.

Our servers are located in the United States. If you are accessing our Services from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed by us in our facilities and by those third parties with whom we may share your personal information (see WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION? above), in the United States, and other countries.

If you are a resident in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom (UK), then these countries may not necessarily have data protection laws or other similar laws as comprehensive as those in your country. We will however take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this privacy notice and applicable law.

We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law.

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.

Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.

We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent's use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at info@boop.me.

We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Please note however that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

If you are a resident in the EEA or UK and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection supervisory authority. You can find their contact details here: https://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/bodies/authorities/index_en.htm.

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
