Securing your Data

In order to secure your data we have put in place technical and organisational measures which meet the requirements of the GDPR, and require any third-party service providers we use to do the same.

Our responsibilities as a Data Processor

As a technical services provider who stores the personal information of EU citizens on behalf of Data Controllers, we have certain responsibilities under GDPR which we comply with, including:

Managing Data Processing - InfluencerSoft has clear documentation on where our data comes from, how it is stored, and where it goes after we get it. InfluencerSoft will only process personal data on instructions from the controller, and inform the controller if it believes said instruction infringes on the GDPR (28.3)

Accountability and Governance - InfluencerSoft takes extraordinary steps to secure your data, ensure stability and uptime, manage data backup and disaster recovery, and regularly test security (32.1)

Authorized Use of Sub-Processors - InfluencerSoft uses subprocessors as a routine part of offering our service. It is our responsibility to ensure our subcontractors comply with GDPR, and we will comply with those rules. As a Data Controller, your agreement to our use of sub-processors is part of our legal Terms of Service and required to be an InfluencerSoft user. We maintain a list of sub-processors here for your review in our Privacy Policy (28.2)

Applicability

This privacy policy only applies to you if and to the extent InfluencerSoft and the services process your controlled data on your behalf. This privacy policy does not apply to you if: 

(a) your covered data does not include any personal data; or 

(b) data protection laws do not apply to your covered data.

You agree that InfluencerSoft is not responsible for personal data that you have elected to process through third-party services or outside of the services, including the systems of any other third-party cloud services, offline or on-premises storage.

Details of Data Processing

The subject matter of the data processing under this privacy policy is your controlled data. As between you and us, the duration of the data processing under this privacy policy is determined by you. The purpose of the data processing under this privacy policy is the provision of the services initiated by you from time to time. In connection with providing the services, we may process your controlled data for business purposes such as: 

(a) maintaining and servicing your account(s); 

(b) serving and rendering your websites to end users; 

(c) enabling you to transact and communicate with your end users; 

(d) providing analytics, auditing or verifying events related to your end users’ visits to your websites; 

(e) ensuring the security and integrity of the services; and 

(f) debugging, and improving the services.

Your controlled data relating to you, your end users or other data subjects whose personal data is included in covered data which is processed as part of the services in accordance with instructions given through the services.

Processing Roles and Activities

You are the controller and InfluencerSoft is the processor of your controlled data.

InfluencerSoft may also be an independent controller for some personal data relating to you or your end users. We decide how to use and process that personal data independently and use it for our own purposes. When we process personal data as a controller, you acknowledge and confirm that the agreement does not create a joint-controller relationship between you and us. If we provide you with personal data controlled by us, such as in any access to data regarding your end users’ interactions with your site, you receive that as an independent data controller and are responsible for compliance with data protection laws in that regard.

We will process your controlled data for the purpose of providing you with the services, as may be used, configured or modified through the services (the “purpose”). For example, depending on how you use the services, we may process your controlled data in order to: 

(a) enable you to integrate content or features from a social media platform on your site; or 

(b) email your end users on your behalf.

You will ensure that your instructions comply with all laws, regulations and rules applicable in relation to your controlled data (including data protection laws) and that your controlled data is collected lawfully by you or on your behalf and provided to us by you in accordance with such laws, rules and regulations. You will also ensure that the processing of your controlled data in accordance with your instructions will not cause or result in us or you breaching any laws, rules or regulations (including data protection laws). You are responsible for reviewing the information available from us relating to data security pursuant to the agreement and making an independent determination as to whether the services meet your requirements and legal obligations as well as your obligations under this privacy policy. InfluencerSoft will not access or use your controlled data except as provided in the agreement, as necessary to maintain or provide the services or as necessary to comply with the law or binding order of a governmental, law enforcement or regulatory body.

Our Processing Responsibilities

We will process your controlled data for the purpose and in accordance with the agreement or instructions you give us through the services. We will not “sell” or “share” (as such terms are defined under US Data Protection Laws) your controlled data. You agree that the agreement and the instructions given through the services are your complete and final documented instructions to us in relation to your controlled data. Additional instructions outside the scope of this privacy policy require prior written agreement between you and us, including agreement on any additional fees payable by you to us for carrying out such instructions. We will promptly inform you if, in our opinion, your instructions infringe data protection laws, or if we are unable to comply with your instructions. We will notify you when applicable laws prevent us from complying with your instructions, except if such disclosure is prohibited by applicable law on important grounds of public interest, such as a prohibition under law to preserve the confidentiality of a law enforcement investigation or request.

To the extent you and your controlled data are subject to the CCPA (such personal data, “CCPA data”), with respect to such CCPA data: 

(a) InfluencerSoft acts as a “service provider” and you are a “business” (as such terms are defined under the CCPA); and 

(b) InfluencerSoft and you shall comply with our and your respective obligations under the CCPA. InfluencerSoft will not use your controlled data outside of its direct business relationship with you, or for purposes other than the business purpose, unless otherwise permitted by the CCPA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that in accordance with the CCPA, InfluencerSoft may: 

(i) use CCPA data internally to build and improve the quality of the services; or 

(ii) combine personal data of the end users of you or other businesses for which InfluencerSoft is a service provider for the purposes of detecting data security incidents or protecting against fraudulent or illegal activity. This combined personal data includes IP addresses, preferences, web pages visited prior to coming to your or another business’ website, information about browser, network or device (such as browser type and version, operating system, internet service provider, preference settings, unique device IDs and language and other regional settings), and information about how end users interact with your or another business’ website (such as timestamps, clicks, scrolling, browsing times and load times). 

We will provide you notice without undue delay after becoming aware of and confirming the occurrence of a breach for which notification to you is required under data protection laws. We will, to assist you in complying with your notification obligations under data protection laws (including Articles 33 and 34 of the GDPR), provide you with such information about the breach as we are reasonably able to disclose to you, taking into account the nature of the services, the information available to us and any restrictions on disclosing the information such as for confidentiality. Our obligation to report or respond to a Breach under this policy is not and will not be construed as an acknowledgement by InfluencerSoft of any fault or liability of InfluencerSoft with respect to the breach. Despite the foregoing, InfluencerSoft’s obligations under this policy do not apply to incidents that are caused by you, any activity on your Account(s) and/or third party services.

We will provide you notice, if permitted by applicable law, upon receiving: 

(a) an inquiry or complaint from an end user or other individual whose personal data is included in your controlled data; or 

(b) a binding demand (such as a court order or subpoena) from a government, law enforcement, regulatory or other body in respect of your controlled data.

We will, to the extent that you cannot reasonably do so through the services or otherwise, provide reasonable assistance to you in respect of your fulfillment of your obligation as controller to respond to requests by data subjects under data protection laws (including Chapter 3 of the GDPR), taking into account the nature of the services and information available to us. To the extent required by data protection laws, you may ask us to assist you by verifying that we no longer retain or use any of your controlled data related to a data subject who has made a valid request to you to delete their personal data. You will be responsible for our reasonable costs arising from our provision of any such assistance.

We will maintain the security measures and the safeguards set out here. We may change or update the security measures or safeguards but will not do so in a way that adversely affects the security of your controlled data. We will take steps to ensure that any natural person acting under our authority who has access to your controlled data does not process it except on our instructions, unless such person is required to do so under applicable law, and that personnel authorized by us to process your controlled data have committed themselves to relevant confidentiality obligations or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

You agree that we can share your controlled data with sub-processors in order to provide you the services. We will impose contractual obligations on our sub-processors, and contractually obligate our sub-processors to impose contractual obligations on any further sub-contractors which they engage to process your controlled data, which provide the same level of data protection for your controlled data in all material respects as the contractual obligations imposed in this privacy policy, to the extent applicable to the nature of the services provided by such sub-processor. A list of our current sub-processors is available upon request by sending an email to support@InfluencerSoft.com. Provided that your objection is reasonable and related to data protection concerns, you may object to any sub-processor by sending an email to support@influencersoft.com. If you object to any sub-processor and your objection is reasonable and related to data protection concerns, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to you a means of avoiding the processing of your controlled data by the objected-to sub-processor. If we are unable to make available such suggested change within a reasonable period of time, we will notify you and if you still object to our use of such sub-processor, you may cancel or terminate the services or, if possible, the portions of the services that involve use of such sub-processor. Except as set forth in this policy, if you object to any sub-processors, you may not use or access the services. You consent to our use of sub-processors as described in this policy. Except as set forth in this policy or as you may otherwise authorize, we will not permit any sub-processor to access your controlled data. InfluencerSoft will remain responsible for its compliance with the obligations of this privacy policy and for any acts or omissions of any sub-processor or their further sub-contractors that process your controlled data and cause InfluencerSoft to breach any of InfluencerSoft’s obligations under this privacy policy, solely to the extent that InfluencerSoft would be liable under the agreement if the act or omission was InfluencerSoft’s own. 

InfluencerSoft may (where required by data protection laws) use external or internal auditors to verify the adequacy of our Security Measures or as otherwise required by Data Protection Laws.

You agree to exercise any right you may have to conduct an audit or inspection by instructing InfluencerSoft to carry out the audit described herein. You agree that you may be required to agree to a non-disclosure agreement with InfluencerSoft before we share any such report or outcome from such audit with you and that we may redact any such reports as we consider appropriate. If InfluencerSoft does not follow such instruction or if it is legally mandatory for you to demonstrate compliance with data protection laws by means other than reviewing a report from such an audit, you may only request a change in the following way:

a. First, submit a request for additional information in writing to InfluencerSoft, specifying all details required to enable InfluencerSoft to review this request effectively, including without limitation the information being requested, what form you need to obtain it in and the underlying legal requirement for the request (the “request”). You agree that the request will be limited to information regarding our security measures or as otherwise required by data protection laws.

b. Within a reasonable time after we have received and reviewed the request, you and we will discuss and work in good faith towards agreeing on a plan to determine the details of how the request can be addressed. You and we agree to use the least intrusive means for InfluencerSoft to address the request, taking into account applicable legal requirements, information available to or that may be provided to you, the urgency of the matter and the need for InfluencerSoft to maintain uninterrupted business operations and the security of its facilities and protect itself and its customers from risk and to prevent disclosure of information that could jeopardize the confidentiality of InfluencerSoft or our users’ information.

You will pay our costs in considering and addressing any request. Any information and documentation provided by InfluencerSoft or its auditors pursuant to this policy will be provided at your cost. If we decline to follow any instruction requested by you regarding audits or inspections, you may cancel any affected paid services.

Upon your reasonable requests to us for information regarding our compliance with the obligations set forth in this privacy policy, we shall, where such information is not otherwise available to you, provide you with written responses, provided that you agree not to exercise this right more than one (1) time per calendar year (unless it is necessary for you to do so to comply with data protection laws). The information to be made available by InfluencerSoft under this policy is limited to solely that information necessary, taking into account the nature of the services and the information available to InfluencerSoft, to assist you in complying with your obligations under applicable data protection laws in respect of data protection impact assessments and prior consultation. You agree that you may be required to agree to a non-disclosure agreement with InfluencerSoft before we share any such information with you.  

You can delete or access a copy of some of your controlled data through the services. For any of your controlled data which may not be deleted or accessed through the services, upon your written request, we will, with respect to any of your controlled data in our or our sub-processor’s possession that we can associate with a data subject, subject to the limitations described in the agreement and unless prohibited by applicable law or the order of a governmental, law enforcement or regulatory body: 

(a) return such data and copies of such data to you provided that you make such request within no more than ninety (90) days after the cancellation of the applicable paid services; or 

(b) delete, and request that our sub-processors delete, such data (excluding in the case of (a) or (b) any of such data which we maintain in order to comply with applicable law or as otherwise set forth in the agreement). Otherwise, we will delete your controlled data in accordance with our data retention policy.

Review your website, your scheduler, and other InfluencerSoft products and look for areas where you collect personal data, bearing in mind the modified the GDPR definition of “personal data.”

Some questions to consider:

• Do you collect personal data via products using third-party services? (e.g., Google Analytics, a form block connected to Mailchimp and Google Drive). You should read the privacy policies of those services.
• Do you download or export data from your products into another system?
• Do you combine the personal data you collect with other sources of data?
• Are you gathering information you don’t need?

Create (or update) your privacy policy

After you’ve identified your data collection activities, the GDPR requires that you provide specific information to individuals whose personal data you're collecting and processing. Posting a privacy policy gives visitors more clarity about your use of their information. Consider making a privacy policy page on your site or scheduler that documents:

• What information you collect
• Why you collect that information
• Who you share that information with
• How long you'll store that information
• If you intended to transfer such information outside of the European Economic Area.
• Any other information required under the GDPR

Posting a privacy policy gives visitors more clarity about your use of their information.

The Owner reserves the right to aggregate the Data imported on the application by the different InfluencerSoft Users, for the purpose of creating anonymized aggregated metrics.

Securing your Data

In order to secure your data we have put in place technical and organisational measures which meet the requirements of the GDPR, and require any third-party service providers we use to do the same.

When we use third parties to provide the services, for example infrastructure service providers, these third parties are only engaged after a comprehensive review.

Your data is only ever saved on secure servers, which may only be accessed by a few authorised personnel.

Third-Party Service Providers in non-EEA Countries

In order to provide our services, we use third-party services located outside the European Economic Area. Where such transfer occurs, InfluencerSoft ensures that such transfer occurs under the necessary legal provisions as required by the applicable legislation in order to provide for an adequate level of protection of Your Personal Data (e.g. adequacy decision of the EU commission (e.g. EU-US Privacy Shield), binding corporate rules, or EU standard contractual clauses)

Our responsibilities as a Data Processor

As a technical services provider who stores the personal information of EU citizens on behalf of Data Controllers, we have certain responsibilities under GDPR which we comply with, including:

Managing Data Processing - InfluencerSoft has clear documentation on where our data comes from, how it is stored, and where it goes after we get it. InfluencerSoft will only process personal data on instructions from the controller, and inform the controller if it believes said instruction infringes on the GDPR (28.3)

Accountability and Governance - InfluencerSoft takes extraordinary steps to secure your data, ensure stability and uptime, manage data backup and disaster recovery, and regularly test security (32.1)

Authorized Use of Sub-Processors - InfluencerSoft uses subprocessors as a routine part of offering our service. It is our responsibility to ensure our subcontractors comply with GDPR, and we will comply with those rules. As a Data Controller, your agreement to our use of sub-processors is part of our legal Terms of Service and required to be an InfluencerSoft user. We maintain a list of sub-processors here for your review in our Privacy Policy (28.2)

Applicability

This privacy policy only applies to you if and to the extent InfluencerSoft and the services process your controlled data on your behalf. This privacy policy does not apply to you if: 

(a) your covered data does not include any personal data; or 

(b) data protection laws do not apply to your covered data.

You agree that InfluencerSoft is not responsible for personal data that you have elected to process through third-party services or outside of the services, including the systems of any other third-party cloud services, offline or on-premises storage.

Details of Data Processing

The subject matter of the data processing under this privacy policy is your controlled data. As between you and us, the duration of the data processing under this privacy policy is determined by you. The purpose of the data processing under this privacy policy is the provision of the services initiated by you from time to time. In connection with providing the services, we may process your controlled data for business purposes such as: 

(a) maintaining and servicing your account(s); 

(b) serving and rendering your websites to end users; 

(c) enabling you to transact and communicate with your end users; 

(d) providing analytics, auditing or verifying events related to your end users’ visits to your websites; 

(e) ensuring the security and integrity of the services; and 

(f) debugging, and improving the services.

Your controlled data relating to you, your end users or other data subjects whose personal data is included in covered data which is processed as part of the services in accordance with instructions given through the services.

Processing Roles and Activities

You are the controller and InfluencerSoft is the processor of your controlled data.

InfluencerSoft may also be an independent controller for some personal data relating to you or your end users. We decide how to use and process that personal data independently and use it for our own purposes. When we process personal data as a controller, you acknowledge and confirm that the agreement does not create a joint-controller relationship between you and us. If we provide you with personal data controlled by us, such as in any access to data regarding your end users’ interactions with your site, you receive that as an independent data controller and are responsible for compliance with data protection laws in that regard.

We will process your controlled data for the purpose of providing you with the services, as may be used, configured or modified through the services (the “purpose”). For example, depending on how you use the services, we may process your controlled data in order to: 

(a) enable you to integrate content or features from a social media platform on your site; or 

(b) email your end users on your behalf.

You will ensure that your instructions comply with all laws, regulations and rules applicable in relation to your controlled data (including data protection laws) and that your controlled data is collected lawfully by you or on your behalf and provided to us by you in accordance with such laws, rules and regulations. You will also ensure that the processing of your controlled data in accordance with your instructions will not cause or result in us or you breaching any laws, rules or regulations (including data protection laws). You are responsible for reviewing the information available from us relating to data security pursuant to the agreement and making an independent determination as to whether the services meet your requirements and legal obligations as well as your obligations under this privacy policy. InfluencerSoft will not access or use your controlled data except as provided in the agreement, as necessary to maintain or provide the services or as necessary to comply with the law or binding order of a governmental, law enforcement or regulatory body.

Our Processing Responsibilities

We will process your controlled data for the purpose and in accordance with the agreement or instructions you give us through the services. We will not “sell” or “share” (as such terms are defined under US Data Protection Laws) your controlled data. You agree that the agreement and the instructions given through the services are your complete and final documented instructions to us in relation to your controlled data. Additional instructions outside the scope of this privacy policy require prior written agreement between you and us, including agreement on any additional fees payable by you to us for carrying out such instructions. We will promptly inform you if, in our opinion, your instructions infringe data protection laws, or if we are unable to comply with your instructions. We will notify you when applicable laws prevent us from complying with your instructions, except if such disclosure is prohibited by applicable law on important grounds of public interest, such as a prohibition under law to preserve the confidentiality of a law enforcement investigation or request.

To the extent you and your controlled data are subject to the CCPA (such personal data, “CCPA data”), with respect to such CCPA data: 

(a) InfluencerSoft acts as a “service provider” and you are a “business” (as such terms are defined under the CCPA); and 

(b) InfluencerSoft and you shall comply with our and your respective obligations under the CCPA. InfluencerSoft will not use your controlled data outside of its direct business relationship with you, or for purposes other than the business purpose, unless otherwise permitted by the CCPA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that in accordance with the CCPA, InfluencerSoft may: 

(i) use CCPA data internally to build and improve the quality of the services; or 

(ii) combine personal data of the end users of you or other businesses for which InfluencerSoft is a service provider for the purposes of detecting data security incidents or protecting against fraudulent or illegal activity. This combined personal data includes IP addresses, preferences, web pages visited prior to coming to your or another business’ website, information about browser, network or device (such as browser type and version, operating system, internet service provider, preference settings, unique device IDs and language and other regional settings), and information about how end users interact with your or another business’ website (such as timestamps, clicks, scrolling, browsing times and load times). 

We will provide you notice without undue delay after becoming aware of and confirming the occurrence of a breach for which notification to you is required under data protection laws. We will, to assist you in complying with your notification obligations under data protection laws (including Articles 33 and 34 of the GDPR), provide you with such information about the breach as we are reasonably able to disclose to you, taking into account the nature of the services, the information available to us and any restrictions on disclosing the information such as for confidentiality. Our obligation to report or respond to a Breach under this policy is not and will not be construed as an acknowledgement by InfluencerSoft of any fault or liability of InfluencerSoft with respect to the breach. Despite the foregoing, InfluencerSoft’s obligations under this policy do not apply to incidents that are caused by you, any activity on your Account(s) and/or third party services.

We will provide you notice, if permitted by applicable law, upon receiving: 

(a) an inquiry or complaint from an end user or other individual whose personal data is included in your controlled data; or 

(b) a binding demand (such as a court order or subpoena) from a government, law enforcement, regulatory or other body in respect of your controlled data.

We will, to the extent that you cannot reasonably do so through the services or otherwise, provide reasonable assistance to you in respect of your fulfillment of your obligation as controller to respond to requests by data subjects under data protection laws (including Chapter 3 of the GDPR), taking into account the nature of the services and information available to us. To the extent required by data protection laws, you may ask us to assist you by verifying that we no longer retain or use any of your controlled data related to a data subject who has made a valid request to you to delete their personal data. You will be responsible for our reasonable costs arising from our provision of any such assistance.

We will maintain the security measures and the safeguards set out here. We may change or update the security measures or safeguards but will not do so in a way that adversely affects the security of your controlled data. We will take steps to ensure that any natural person acting under our authority who has access to your controlled data does not process it except on our instructions, unless such person is required to do so under applicable law, and that personnel authorized by us to process your controlled data have committed themselves to relevant confidentiality obligations or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

You agree that we can share your controlled data with sub-processors in order to provide you the services. We will impose contractual obligations on our sub-processors, and contractually obligate our sub-processors to impose contractual obligations on any further sub-contractors which they engage to process your controlled data, which provide the same level of data protection for your controlled data in all material respects as the contractual obligations imposed in this privacy policy, to the extent applicable to the nature of the services provided by such sub-processor. A list of our current sub-processors is available upon request by sending an email to support@InfluencerSoft.com. Provided that your objection is reasonable and related to data protection concerns, you may object to any sub-processor by sending an email to support@influencersoft.com. If you object to any sub-processor and your objection is reasonable and related to data protection concerns, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to you a means of avoiding the processing of your controlled data by the objected-to sub-processor. If we are unable to make available such suggested change within a reasonable period of time, we will notify you and if you still object to our use of such sub-processor, you may cancel or terminate the services or, if possible, the portions of the services that involve use of such sub-processor. Except as set forth in this policy, if you object to any sub-processors, you may not use or access the services. You consent to our use of sub-processors as described in this policy. Except as set forth in this policy or as you may otherwise authorize, we will not permit any sub-processor to access your controlled data. InfluencerSoft will remain responsible for its compliance with the obligations of this privacy policy and for any acts or omissions of any sub-processor or their further sub-contractors that process your controlled data and cause InfluencerSoft to breach any of InfluencerSoft’s obligations under this privacy policy, solely to the extent that InfluencerSoft would be liable under the agreement if the act or omission was InfluencerSoft’s own. 

InfluencerSoft may (where required by data protection laws) use external or internal auditors to verify the adequacy of our Security Measures or as otherwise required by Data Protection Laws.

You agree to exercise any right you may have to conduct an audit or inspection by instructing InfluencerSoft to carry out the audit described herein. You agree that you may be required to agree to a non-disclosure agreement with InfluencerSoft before we share any such report or outcome from such audit with you and that we may redact any such reports as we consider appropriate. If InfluencerSoft does not follow such instruction or if it is legally mandatory for you to demonstrate compliance with data protection laws by means other than reviewing a report from such an audit, you may only request a change in the following way:

a. First, submit a request for additional information in writing to InfluencerSoft, specifying all details required to enable InfluencerSoft to review this request effectively, including without limitation the information being requested, what form you need to obtain it in and the underlying legal requirement for the request (the “request”). You agree that the request will be limited to information regarding our security measures or as otherwise required by data protection laws.

b. Within a reasonable time after we have received and reviewed the request, you and we will discuss and work in good faith towards agreeing on a plan to determine the details of how the request can be addressed. You and we agree to use the least intrusive means for InfluencerSoft to address the request, taking into account applicable legal requirements, information available to or that may be provided to you, the urgency of the matter and the need for InfluencerSoft to maintain uninterrupted business operations and the security of its facilities and protect itself and its customers from risk and to prevent disclosure of information that could jeopardize the confidentiality of InfluencerSoft or our users’ information.

You will pay our costs in considering and addressing any request. Any information and documentation provided by InfluencerSoft or its auditors pursuant to this policy will be provided at your cost. If we decline to follow any instruction requested by you regarding audits or inspections, you may cancel any affected paid services.

Upon your reasonable requests to us for information regarding our compliance with the obligations set forth in this privacy policy, we shall, where such information is not otherwise available to you, provide you with written responses, provided that you agree not to exercise this right more than one (1) time per calendar year (unless it is necessary for you to do so to comply with data protection laws). The information to be made available by InfluencerSoft under this policy is limited to solely that information necessary, taking into account the nature of the services and the information available to InfluencerSoft, to assist you in complying with your obligations under applicable data protection laws in respect of data protection impact assessments and prior consultation. You agree that you may be required to agree to a non-disclosure agreement with InfluencerSoft before we share any such information with you.  

You can delete or access a copy of some of your controlled data through the services. For any of your controlled data which may not be deleted or accessed through the services, upon your written request, we will, with respect to any of your controlled data in our or our sub-processor’s possession that we can associate with a data subject, subject to the limitations described in the agreement and unless prohibited by applicable law or the order of a governmental, law enforcement or regulatory body: 

(a) return such data and copies of such data to you provided that you make such request within no more than ninety (90) days after the cancellation of the applicable paid services; or 

(b) delete, and request that our sub-processors delete, such data (excluding in the case of (a) or (b) any of such data which we maintain in order to comply with applicable law or as otherwise set forth in the agreement). Otherwise, we will delete your controlled data in accordance with our data retention policy.

Data Transfers

This section of the policy only applies to you to the extent your controlled data includes personal data of data subjects located within the EEA, United Kingdom or Switzerland.

GDPR best practices for InfluencerSoft

While we can’t offer legal advice, here are some best practices that will help you get started with your GDPR compliance.

Personal data audit

Review your website, your scheduler, and other InfluencerSoft products and look for areas where you collect personal data, bearing in mind the modified the GDPR definition of “personal data.”

Some questions to consider:

• Do you collect personal data via products using third-party services? (e.g., Google Analytics, a form block connected to Mailchimp and Google Drive). You should read the privacy policies of those services.
• Do you download or export data from your products into another system?
• Do you combine the personal data you collect with other sources of data?
• Are you gathering information you don’t need?

Create (or update) your privacy policy

After you’ve identified your data collection activities, the GDPR requires that you provide specific information to individuals whose personal data you're collecting and processing. Posting a privacy policy gives visitors more clarity about your use of their information. Consider making a privacy policy page on your site or scheduler that documents:

• What information you collect
• Why you collect that information
• Who you share that information with
• How long you'll store that information
• If you intended to transfer such information outside of the European Economic Area.
• Any other information required under the GDPR

Posting a privacy policy gives visitors more clarity about your use of their information.

Where can I get more information about the GDPR?

Securing your Data

In order to secure your data we have put in place technical and organisational measures which meet the requirements of the GDPR, and require any third-party service providers we use to do the same.

Our responsibilities as a Data Processor

As a technical services provider who stores the personal information of EU citizens on behalf of Data Controllers, we have certain responsibilities under GDPR which we comply with, including:

Managing Data Processing - InfluencerSoft has clear documentation on where our data comes from, how it is stored, and where it goes after we get it. InfluencerSoft will only process personal data on instructions from the controller, and inform the controller if it believes said instruction infringes on the GDPR (28.3)

Accountability and Governance - InfluencerSoft takes extraordinary steps to secure your data, ensure stability and uptime, manage data backup and disaster recovery, and regularly test security (32.1)

Authorized Use of Sub-Processors - InfluencerSoft uses subprocessors as a routine part of offering our service. It is our responsibility to ensure our subcontractors comply with GDPR, and we will comply with those rules. As a Data Controller, your agreement to our use of sub-processors is part of our legal Terms of Service and required to be an InfluencerSoft user. We maintain a list of sub-processors here for your review in our Privacy Policy (28.2)

Applicability

This privacy policy only applies to you if and to the extent InfluencerSoft and the services process your controlled data on your behalf. This privacy policy does not apply to you if: 

(a) your covered data does not include any personal data; or 

(b) data protection laws do not apply to your covered data.

You agree that InfluencerSoft is not responsible for personal data that you have elected to process through third-party services or outside of the services, including the systems of any other third-party cloud services, offline or on-premises storage.

Details of Data Processing

The subject matter of the data processing under this privacy policy is your controlled data. As between you and us, the duration of the data processing under this privacy policy is determined by you. The purpose of the data processing under this privacy policy is the provision of the services initiated by you from time to time. In connection with providing the services, we may process your controlled data for business purposes such as: 

(a) maintaining and servicing your account(s); 

(b) serving and rendering your websites to end users; 

(c) enabling you to transact and communicate with your end users; 

(d) providing analytics, auditing or verifying events related to your end users’ visits to your websites; 

(e) ensuring the security and integrity of the services; and 

(f) debugging, and improving the services.

Your controlled data relating to you, your end users or other data subjects whose personal data is included in covered data which is processed as part of the services in accordance with instructions given through the services.

Processing Roles and Activities

You are the controller and InfluencerSoft is the processor of your controlled data.

InfluencerSoft may also be an independent controller for some personal data relating to you or your end users. We decide how to use and process that personal data independently and use it for our own purposes. When we process personal data as a controller, you acknowledge and confirm that the agreement does not create a joint-controller relationship between you and us. If we provide you with personal data controlled by us, such as in any access to data regarding your end users’ interactions with your site, you receive that as an independent data controller and are responsible for compliance with data protection laws in that regard.

We will process your controlled data for the purpose of providing you with the services, as may be used, configured or modified through the services (the “purpose”). For example, depending on how you use the services, we may process your controlled data in order to: 

(a) enable you to integrate content or features from a social media platform on your site; or 

(b) email your end users on your behalf.

You will ensure that your instructions comply with all laws, regulations and rules applicable in relation to your controlled data (including data protection laws) and that your controlled data is collected lawfully by you or on your behalf and provided to us by you in accordance with such laws, rules and regulations. You will also ensure that the processing of your controlled data in accordance with your instructions will not cause or result in us or you breaching any laws, rules or regulations (including data protection laws). You are responsible for reviewing the information available from us relating to data security pursuant to the agreement and making an independent determination as to whether the services meet your requirements and legal obligations as well as your obligations under this privacy policy. InfluencerSoft will not access or use your controlled data except as provided in the agreement, as necessary to maintain or provide the services or as necessary to comply with the law or binding order of a governmental, law enforcement or regulatory body.

Our Processing Responsibilities

We will process your controlled data for the purpose and in accordance with the agreement or instructions you give us through the services. We will not “sell” or “share” (as such terms are defined under US Data Protection Laws) your controlled data. You agree that the agreement and the instructions given through the services are your complete and final documented instructions to us in relation to your controlled data. Additional instructions outside the scope of this privacy policy require prior written agreement between you and us, including agreement on any additional fees payable by you to us for carrying out such instructions. We will promptly inform you if, in our opinion, your instructions infringe data protection laws, or if we are unable to comply with your instructions. We will notify you when applicable laws prevent us from complying with your instructions, except if such disclosure is prohibited by applicable law on important grounds of public interest, such as a prohibition under law to preserve the confidentiality of a law enforcement investigation or request.

To the extent you and your controlled data are subject to the CCPA (such personal data, “CCPA data”), with respect to such CCPA data: 

(a) InfluencerSoft acts as a “service provider” and you are a “business” (as such terms are defined under the CCPA); and 

(b) InfluencerSoft and you shall comply with our and your respective obligations under the CCPA. InfluencerSoft will not use your controlled data outside of its direct business relationship with you, or for purposes other than the business purpose, unless otherwise permitted by the CCPA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that in accordance with the CCPA, InfluencerSoft may: 

(i) use CCPA data internally to build and improve the quality of the services; or 

(ii) combine personal data of the end users of you or other businesses for which InfluencerSoft is a service provider for the purposes of detecting data security incidents or protecting against fraudulent or illegal activity. This combined personal data includes IP addresses, preferences, web pages visited prior to coming to your or another business’ website, information about browser, network or device (such as browser type and version, operating system, internet service provider, preference settings, unique device IDs and language and other regional settings), and information about how end users interact with your or another business’ website (such as timestamps, clicks, scrolling, browsing times and load times). 

We will provide you notice without undue delay after becoming aware of and confirming the occurrence of a breach for which notification to you is required under data protection laws. We will, to assist you in complying with your notification obligations under data protection laws (including Articles 33 and 34 of the GDPR), provide you with such information about the breach as we are reasonably able to disclose to you, taking into account the nature of the services, the information available to us and any restrictions on disclosing the information such as for confidentiality. Our obligation to report or respond to a Breach under this policy is not and will not be construed as an acknowledgement by InfluencerSoft of any fault or liability of InfluencerSoft with respect to the breach. Despite the foregoing, InfluencerSoft’s obligations under this policy do not apply to incidents that are caused by you, any activity on your Account(s) and/or third party services.

We will provide you notice, if permitted by applicable law, upon receiving: 

(a) an inquiry or complaint from an end user or other individual whose personal data is included in your controlled data; or 

(b) a binding demand (such as a court order or subpoena) from a government, law enforcement, regulatory or other body in respect of your controlled data.

We will, to the extent that you cannot reasonably do so through the services or otherwise, provide reasonable assistance to you in respect of your fulfillment of your obligation as controller to respond to requests by data subjects under data protection laws (including Chapter 3 of the GDPR), taking into account the nature of the services and information available to us. To the extent required by data protection laws, you may ask us to assist you by verifying that we no longer retain or use any of your controlled data related to a data subject who has made a valid request to you to delete their personal data. You will be responsible for our reasonable costs arising from our provision of any such assistance.

We will maintain the security measures and the safeguards set out here. We may change or update the security measures or safeguards but will not do so in a way that adversely affects the security of your controlled data. We will take steps to ensure that any natural person acting under our authority who has access to your controlled data does not process it except on our instructions, unless such person is required to do so under applicable law, and that personnel authorized by us to process your controlled data have committed themselves to relevant confidentiality obligations or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

You agree that we can share your controlled data with sub-processors in order to provide you the services. We will impose contractual obligations on our sub-processors, and contractually obligate our sub-processors to impose contractual obligations on any further sub-contractors which they engage to process your controlled data, which provide the same level of data protection for your controlled data in all material respects as the contractual obligations imposed in this privacy policy, to the extent applicable to the nature of the services provided by such sub-processor. A list of our current sub-processors is available upon request by sending an email to support@InfluencerSoft.com. Provided that your objection is reasonable and related to data protection concerns, you may object to any sub-processor by sending an email to support@influencersoft.com. If you object to any sub-processor and your objection is reasonable and related to data protection concerns, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to you a means of avoiding the processing of your controlled data by the objected-to sub-processor. If we are unable to make available such suggested change within a reasonable period of time, we will notify you and if you still object to our use of such sub-processor, you may cancel or terminate the services or, if possible, the portions of the services that involve use of such sub-processor. Except as set forth in this policy, if you object to any sub-processors, you may not use or access the services. You consent to our use of sub-processors as described in this policy. Except as set forth in this policy or as you may otherwise authorize, we will not permit any sub-processor to access your controlled data. InfluencerSoft will remain responsible for its compliance with the obligations of this privacy policy and for any acts or omissions of any sub-processor or their further sub-contractors that process your controlled data and cause InfluencerSoft to breach any of InfluencerSoft’s obligations under this privacy policy, solely to the extent that InfluencerSoft would be liable under the agreement if the act or omission was InfluencerSoft’s own. 

InfluencerSoft may (where required by data protection laws) use external or internal auditors to verify the adequacy of our Security Measures or as otherwise required by Data Protection Laws.

You agree to exercise any right you may have to conduct an audit or inspection by instructing InfluencerSoft to carry out the audit described herein. You agree that you may be required to agree to a non-disclosure agreement with InfluencerSoft before we share any such report or outcome from such audit with you and that we may redact any such reports as we consider appropriate. If InfluencerSoft does not follow such instruction or if it is legally mandatory for you to demonstrate compliance with data protection laws by means other than reviewing a report from such an audit, you may only request a change in the following way:

a. First, submit a request for additional information in writing to InfluencerSoft, specifying all details required to enable InfluencerSoft to review this request effectively, including without limitation the information being requested, what form you need to obtain it in and the underlying legal requirement for the request (the “request”). You agree that the request will be limited to information regarding our security measures or as otherwise required by data protection laws.

b. Within a reasonable time after we have received and reviewed the request, you and we will discuss and work in good faith towards agreeing on a plan to determine the details of how the request can be addressed. You and we agree to use the least intrusive means for InfluencerSoft to address the request, taking into account applicable legal requirements, information available to or that may be provided to you, the urgency of the matter and the need for InfluencerSoft to maintain uninterrupted business operations and the security of its facilities and protect itself and its customers from risk and to prevent disclosure of information that could jeopardize the confidentiality of InfluencerSoft or our users’ information.

GDPR best practices for InfluencerSoft

While we can’t offer legal advice, here are some best practices that will help you get started with your GDPR compliance.

Personal data audit

Review your website, your scheduler, and other InfluencerSoft products and look for areas where you collect personal data, bearing in mind the modified the GDPR definition of “personal data.”

Some questions to consider:

• Do you collect personal data via products using third-party services? (e.g., Google Analytics, a form block connected to Mailchimp and Google Drive). You should read the privacy policies of those services.
• Do you download or export data from your products into another system?
• Do you combine the personal data you collect with other sources of data?
• Are you gathering information you don’t need?

Create (or update) your privacy policy

After you’ve identified your data collection activities, the GDPR requires that you provide specific information to individuals whose personal data you're collecting and processing. Posting a privacy policy gives visitors more clarity about your use of their information. Consider making a privacy policy page on your site or scheduler that documents:

• What information you collect
• Why you collect that information
• Who you share that information with
• How long you'll store that information
• If you intended to transfer such information outside of the European Economic Area.
• Any other information required under the GDPR

Posting a privacy policy gives visitors more clarity about your use of their information.
