1. What We Collect and How We Collect It

We only ask for personal information when we truly need it to provide a service to you. We collect it by fair and lawful means, with your knowledge and consent. For example, when you first sign up to use the Platform you are asked to review and accept our Standard Terms and Conditions and this Privacy Policy. Similarly, we want you to understand what information we collect about you, how we collect that information, how we use it, and what your rights are with respect to what we do. This Privacy Policy explains those things.

We collect several types of information from and about individual users of the Platform, including information by which you might be personally identified. A few examples of how and when this may happen include:

• you create an account on the Platform;
• you access, use, view content on, and/or otherwise interact with our Platform or your account;

Please note that except as set out in this Privacy Policy, we do not collect or scrape additional information from the computers, contacts, email accounts, or other personal sources of account holders and individuals accessing or using our Platform.

We may collect and use generalized, anonymous information about all visitors and users of our Platform. This information cannot be used to identify or isolate your personal information.

If you have questions or requests about the personal information we collect and how we collect it, or your rights in connection with our Platform, please contact us by any of the methods set out above in the introduction to these policies or below in the section titled “Contact Us”.

2. How We Use and Disclose Personal Information

We use and/or disclose personal information solely for the purpose of providing and improving our Platform to and for our users. We do not attempt to monetize personal information by selling or sharing it with third parties.

Specifically, we use and/or disclose personal information (i) to operate and improve our Platform; (ii) with third party vendors as necessary to provide, promote, or operate our Platform (for example: to facilitate call answering services); (iii) to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and other legal purposes; (iv) to detect and manage fraud, security, and technical issues; (v) to protect the safety and rights of individuals, the public, and Daupler; (vi) to contact you about your account or your use of the Platform; (vii) to contact you about the Platform and related resources; (viii) for account servicing and maintenance; (ix) to measure and improve client engagement; (x) for corporate business purposes (for example: to our current or future parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, and other companies under common control and ownership, or to a buyer or other successor in connection with, or during negotiations for, a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or other sale or transfer of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding); and (xi) otherwise as you direct or consent.

When we use personal information with third party vendors, those vendors are not allowed to access or use information from us, except only as needed to do their particular work with us, and we will condition use of that information on strict confidentiality restrictions as much as possible.

When we use personal information for legal purposes or in connection with our corporate business purposes, we will try to limit the information we provide as much as possible, and we will condition our sharing of that information on strict confidentiality restrictions as much as possible.

We may also use anonymized or generalized aggregate information about users of the Platform for various reasons, including to promote and improve our Platform. In these circumstances, we will take appropriate measures to de-identify (and prevent any party from re-identifying) any information used in this way.

If you have questions or requests about how we use personal information, or your rights in connection with our Platform, please contact us by any of the methods set out above in the introduction to these policies or below in the section titled “Contact Us”.

3. Third Party Links and Services

We use third party providers for various aspects of our Platform (for example: to facilitate call answering services). By using our Platform, you will also be subject to the third party policies and practices for those third party products and services, as is further set out in our Standard Terms and Conditions. Those third party policies may be materially different than our policies, especially with regard to information privacy and security. If you choose to use our Platform in ways that rely on third party products and services, you do so at your own risk with respect to those third party policies and practices.

In addition, our Platform may link to external sites, products, and services that are not operated by us. Please be aware that we have no control over the content and practices of these sites, and we are not responsible or liable for their respective privacy policies and practices. If you choose to access or use any such third party site, product, or service, you do so at your own risk.

4. How we Retain and Protect Personal Information

The security of personal information is very important to us, and we continuously work to protect that information well and to improve our practices. We have taken steps that we believe are reasonable to safeguard against the unauthorized access and use of personal information. However, we cannot and do not guarantee the total security of your information in all circumstances.

Securing the information we store and transfer is very important to us, and we continuously work to do that well and to improve our data storage and transfer practices.
