4. Website navigational information

Links. Zumzum may keep track of how you interact with links in our websites and email messages, and with links to our websites in other companies’ websites and email messages. We do this to help improve our websites and Services, target our marketing efforts, and provide more relevant information to prospective customers.

Cookies and Web Beacons. As you navigate our websites, we may collect information, such as browser type and browser language, your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, and the actions you take on websites, such as the web pages viewed and the links clicked. We do this using common information-gathering tools, such as cookies and web beacons..

Our Cookies. Zumzum uses cookies to make your interactions on our websites easy and meaningful. When you access our websites, our servers send a cookie to your computer. Standing alone, cookies do not personally identify you. They merely recognize your web browser. Unless you choose to identify yourself to us – by, for example, responding to a promotional offer, registering for an account or event, or filling out a web form (such as a “Free demo” or a “Contact Us” web form) – you remain anonymous. If you disable your web browser’s ability to accept cookies, some features of the Services may become unavailable to you. We may use information from session and persistent cookies in combination with web registration information, telephone prospect information, billing information (other than credit card information) and email and messaging information to provide you with information about us and our Services.

There are two types of cookies: session-based and persistent..

Session Cookies. Session cookies disappear from your computer when you close your browser software or turn off your computer. If you have chosen to identify yourself to Zumzum, we use session cookies containing encrypted information to uniquely identify you. Each time you log into the Services, a session cookie containing an encrypted, unique identifier tied to your account is placed in your browser. These session cookies allow us to uniquely identify you when you are logged into the Services and to process your online transactions and requests.

Persistent Cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your computer after you close your browser or turn off your computer. Zumzum uses persistent cookies that only we can read and use to identify browsers that have previously accessed our websites and Services. When you visit our websites, purchase Services or provide us with personal information, a unique identifier is assigned you. This unique identifier is associated with a persistent cookie that we place on your web browser. We are especially careful about the security and confidentiality of the information stored in persistent cookies. For example, we do not store account numbers or passwords in persistent cookies.

Salesforce cookies. Our Services run on Salesforce’s Force.com platform. Therefore, Salesforce collects website navigational information from you when you use our Services. The website navigational information collected by Salesforce, and how they use it, are described here.

Other Third-Party Cookies. From time-to-time, Zumzum engages third parties to track and analyze non-personally identifiable usage and volume statistical information from individuals who visit our websites, like Google Analytics for website analytics. You may opt-out of third party cookies from Google Analytics through their website. We may also use other third-party cookies to track the performance of our advertisements. The information provided to third parties does not include personal information, but this information may be re-associated with personal information after we receive it.

Web Beacons. Zumzum uses web beacons alone or in conjunction with cookies to compile information about your use of our websites and interaction with our emails. Web beacons are clear electronic images that can recognize certain types of information on your computer, such as cookies, when you viewed a particular website tied to the web beacon, and a description of a website tied to the web beacon. For example, we may place web beacons in marketing emails that notify us when you click on a link in the email that directs you to one of our websites. Zumzum uses web beacons to operate and improve our websites and email communications.

Log Data. When you use our websites, Zumzum may receive information (“Log Data”) such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, the referring web page, pages visited, location, your mobile carrier, device information (including device and application IDs), search terms, and cookie information. We receive Log Data when you interact with our websites or our email notifications. We use Log Data to provide, understand, and improve our Services, and to improve our other websites and our marketing.

IP Addresses. When you visit Zumzum’s websites, we collect your Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses to track and aggregate non-personally identifiable information. For example, we use your IP addresses to monitor the geographical regions from which you navigate our websites.

Social Media Features. Zumzum’s websites may use social media features, such as the Facebook ‘like’ button (“Social Media Features”). These features may collect your IP address and which page you are visiting on our website, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. You may be given the option by such Social Media Features to post information about your activities on our website to a profile page of yours that is provided by a third party social media network in order to share with others within your network. Social Media Features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our website. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing the relevant Social Media Features.

 Do Not Track. Currently, various browsers – including Chrome, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari – offer a “do not track” or “DNT” option that relies on a technology known as a DNT header, which sends a signal to Web sites’ visited by the user about the user’s browser DNT preference setting. You can view your brower’s Do Not Track setting on our Cookies and Do Not Track web page. If our website detects your brower’s Do Not Track setting as “On,” you will be opted out of third-party cookies on our websites wherever possible.

5. Public forums and customer testimonials

Zumzum may provide bulletin boards, blogs, or chat rooms on our websites. Any personal information you choose to submit in such a forum may be read, collected, or used by others who visit these forums, and may be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these forums.

We post a list of customers and testimonials on our websites that contain information such as our customers’ names and titles. We obtain the consent of each customer prior to posting any information on such a list or posting testimonials.

6. Information sharing and disclosure

Zumzum does not share, sell, rent, or trade personally identifiable information with third parties for their promotional purposes. However, we may share or disclose your information under the following circumstances:

Your Consent. We may share or disclose your information at your direction.

Zumzum Affiliates. Zumzum may share Web registration information, telephone prospect information, billing information (except credit card information), email and messaging information, job applicant information and website navigational information with other our affiliated companies in order to work with them. For example, the Company may need to share such information as part of a sales cycle with an international customer, or to provide account management for an international customer, or to evaluate a job candidate for a role with an international scope.

Salesforce. Data entered into our Services by our customers is stored by Salesforce. Salesforce’s use and disclosure of that data is described here. We also provide to Salesforce our customers’ billing data (but not credit card information) and information about our Services purchased by our customers, to enable Salesforce to provide the Services and, if needed, customer support.

Other Service Providers. We engage service providers in addition to Salesforce to perform functions and provide services to us in the United States and abroad. We may share your private personal information with such service providers subject to confidentiality obligations consistent with this Privacy Statement, and on the condition that the third parties use your private personal data only on our behalf and pursuant to our instructions. We share your billing name and address, and credit card number with payment services providers to process payments; prevent, detect and investigate fraud or other prohibited activities; facilitate dispute resolution such as chargebacks or refunds; and for other purposes associated with the acceptance of credit or debit cards.

Business Partners. From time to time, Zumzum may partner with other companies to offer products or services. If you purchase or specifically express interest in a jointly-offered product or service from us, we may share data about you collected in connection with your purchase or expression of interest with our joint promotion partners. We do not control our business partners’ use of your personal information, and their use of the information will be in accordance with their own privacy policies. If you do not wish for your information to be shared in this manner, you may opt not to purchase or specifically express interest in a jointly offered product or service.

Events. Zumzum does not share with our business partners information we receive about you through your registration for or attendance of events unless: (1) you specifically opt in to such sharing via an event registration form; or (2) you attend an event and allow Zumzum or any of its designees to scan your attendee badge. If you do not wish for your information to be shared in this manner, you may choose not to opt in via event registration forms and elect not to have your badge scanned at our events. If you choose to share your information with business partners in the manners described above, your information will be subject to the business partners’ respective privacy statements.

Law and Harm. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Privacy Statement, we may preserve or disclose your information if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation or a legal request; to protect the safety of any person; to address fraud, security or technical issues; or to protect our rights or property. However, nothing in this Privacy Statement is intended to limit any legal defenses or objections that you may have to a third party’s request to disclose your information, including a government’s request for the same.

Change of Control and Affiliates. In the event that Zumzum is involved in a bankruptcy, merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets, your information may be sold or transferred as part of that transaction. This Privacy Statement will apply to your information as transferred to the new entity. We may also disclose information about you to our corporate affiliates in order to help provide, understand, and improve our Services and improve our websites and marketing.

Third Parties. Zumzum does not authorize the collection of personal information by third parties through advertising technologies deployed on our websites, nor do we share personal information collected from our websites with any third parties, except as provided in this Privacy Statement.

Public and Non-personal Information. We may share or disclose your non-private, aggregated or otherwise non-personal information, such as your comments or posts to our public forums, including our blogs and bulletin boards or your chat messages in our chat rooms.

7. International transfer of information collected

Zumzum primarily stores personal information described in this Privacy Statement in the United Kingdom. To facilitate our global operations, we may transfer and access such information from around the world, including from other countries in which we have operations. Irrespective of which country you reside in or supply information from, you authorize us to use your information in the United Kingdom and any other country where we operate. This Privacy Statement shall apply even if we transfer your personal data to other countries.

8. Customer data

You may use the Services to host your own data, which may include personal information of your customers (“Customer Data”). Zumzum acts only as the processor of Customer Data and will not review, share, distribute, or reference Customer Data except as provided in an applicable Zumzum Master Subscription Agreement, or as may be required by law. We only view or access individual records of Customer Data for the purpose of providing you with support for the Services or as may be required by law.

9. Correcting and updating your information

You may correct or update your user information in our Services by logging into http://www.salesforce.com with your Zumzum  username and password and clicking “My Settings,” then “Personal,” then “Personal Information.” You may delete your user information in our Services by having the person in your organization who acts as the Zumzum or Salesforce administrator login to http://www.salesforce.com with their Zumzum username and password and click “Manage Users,” then “Users,” then select and delete your user profile. To update your billing information in our Services, please email support@zumzum.co.uk.

To correct or update any other personal information Zumzum holds about you, please email privacy@zumzum.co.uk.

10. Data security and integrity

Zumzum uses robust security measures to protect your personal information and Customer Data from unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and help ensure the appropriate use of your personal information. When the Services are accessed using Chrome, Internet Explorer version 6.0 or later, Firefox version 2.0 or later, or Safari version 3.0 or later, Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) technology protects your data using both server authentication and data encryption. These technologies help ensure that your personal information is safe, secure, and only available to you and those to whom you have granted access. We host our websites in a secure server environment that uses firewalls and other advanced technology to prevent interference or access from outside intruders. Zumzum also offers enhanced security features within our Force.com platform-based Services that permit you to configure security settings to the level you deem necessary.

We store Customer Data exclusively in Salesforce’s Force.com platform. Click here for information about the security of the Force.com platform. The Force.com platform is our primary system of record for Web registration information, telephone prospect information, billing information (except credit card information), email and messaging information and job applicant information; however, these types of information are also stored in other systems.

Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Please contact us immediately privacy@zumzum.co.uk if you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure.

11. Mobile applications

In addition to information gathered through the other media described in this Privacy Statement, Zumzum may obtain information through mobile applications that our customers or their authorized individual users download to, and run on, their mobile devices. Mobile applications we provide may obtain information from, or access data stored on, users’ devices to provide services related to the relevant mobile application. For example, a mobile application may: access a camera on a user’s device to enable the user to upload photographs to our Services; access the call history on a user’s device to enable the user to upload that information to our Services; access calendar information on a user’s device to enable the user to match meeting attendees with contacts submitted by the user to the Services; access the geographic location of a user’s device to enable the user to identify contacts submitted by the user to the Services who are nearby; or access contact information on a user’s device to enable the user to sync contact information between the information that is stored on the user’s device and the information that is submitted to the Services. Information obtained to provide mobile application services may include information obtained in preparation for anticipated updates to those services. Mobile applications may transmit information to and from devices to provide the mobile application services.

Mobile applications may provide us and salesforce.com with information related to users’ use of the mobile application services, information regarding users’ computer systems, and information regarding users’ interaction with mobile applications, which we and salesforce.com may use to provide and improve the mobile application services. For example, all actions taken in a mobile application may be logged, along with associated information (such as the time of day when each action was taken). We and salesforce.com may also share anonymous data about these actions with third party providers of analytics services. In addition, if a user downloads a Zumzum mobile application after clicking on a third-party mobile advertisement for the mobile application or for us, the third-party advertiser may provide us with certain information, such as the user’s device identification information, which we may use to track the performance of our advertising campaigns.

Customers may configure our mobile application services, and the information accessed or obtained by the mobile application on a user’s device may be affected by the customer’s configuration. In addition, if a customer purchases more than one Service from us, a mobile application may be designed to interoperate with those Services; for instance, to provide a user with access to information from any or all of those Services or to provide information from a user’s device to any or all of those Services. Information accessed or obtained by the mobile application on a user’s device may be accessible to the customer and its organization, depending on the intended functionality of the mobile application.

Notices and contractual terms related to a particular mobile application may be found in the end user license agreement or relevant terms of service for that application. We encourage you to review the end user license agreement or relevant terms of service related to any mobile applications you download, install, use, or otherwise interact with. The mobile application’s access to information through a user’s device does not cause that information to be “Customer Data” under Zumzum’s Master Subscription Agreement with the customer or under this Privacy Statement, except as follows: To the extent that a user uses a mobile application to submit electronic data and information to a customer account on our Services pursuant to the customer’s Master Subscription Agreement with us (or a similar agreement that governs the customer’s subscriptions to our Services), that information constitutes “Customer Data” as defined in that agreement, and the provisions of that agreement with respect to privacy and security of that data will apply.

12. Retention period

We will retain your personal information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Statement unless a longer retention period is required or allowed by law.

13. Policy towards children

Our Services are not directed to persons under age 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we become aware that a child under age 13 has provided us with personal information, we take steps to remove such information and terminate the child’s account. If you become aware that your child has provided Zumzum with personal information without your consent, please contact us at privacy@zumzum.co.uk.

14. Changes to Privacy Statement

We may revise this Privacy Statement from time to time. The most current version of the Privacy Statement will govern our use of your information and will always be at https://www.zumzum.co.uk/privacy. If we make a change to this Privacy Statement that, in our sole discretion, is material, we will notify you via email to the email address associated with your account and by posting a prominent notice on our website for the 30 days prior to the effective date of such change. By continuing to access or use our websites after those changes become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised Privacy Statement.

15. Conflicts

This Privacy Statement may not apply to the extent it conflicts with other controlling terms and conditions (such as, for example, a Master Subscription Agreement for our Services between Zumzum and you or your organization) or applicable law or regulation.
