This Privacy Notice discloses the privacy practices for Agorai, [Ltd. or Inc.] and all its subsidiaries (collectively referred to hereafter as “Agorai”, “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our” in this Privacy Notice).

At Agorai, we respect and value your need for privacy. This Privacy Notice tells you what personal information we collect and how we collect it. It explains what we use your personal information for and how we keep it safe. This Privacy Notice explains our general practices. However, where local laws or regulations require that we process information differently, or refrain from such processing, we will comply with the applicable local law.

The privacy policy described in this “Privacy Notice” is entirely independent from other Agorai privacy policies in relation to the Company’s data holdings (datasets) and is also independent from any other Agorai privacy policies that apply to other websites, applications, tools, programs or services.

This Privacy Notice is subject to change from time-to-time with the latest version posted on this page. Readers are urged to return to this page to review the latest updates.

  • Visitors to those Agorai and Agorai-owned websites that contain a link to this page.
  • Users of those Agorai applications, datasets, tools, programs, and services that contain a link to this page.

Our Services may contain links to other websites or applications that we do not own or control. Our Privacy Notice does not apply to them. Please read the privacy notices on those websites and applications if you would like to find out how they collect, use, and share your personal information. The inclusion of a link to a third-party on our Services or the ability to utilize a third-party website or application through our Services does not imply that we endorse, or otherwise monitor the privacy or security practices of that third-party website or application or the accuracy of its content, and your use of the third-party website or application is governed by the third-party’s privacy policy.

This Privacy Notice does not and is not intended to create any contractual or legal rights in or on behalf of any party.

2. Your agreement and consent

As a condition to use the Services, you consent to the terms of this Privacy Notice. If you do not agree or do not consent to the use of your information in any manner described in this Privacy Notice, you should not use the Services. You are expected to always review the most current version of this Privacy Notice. Your continued access and use of our Services constitutes your consent to the then current version of this Privacy Notice.

3. What types of information do we collect about you?

Generally, we collect two types of information about you:

  • Personally identifiable information (“PII”)
    [“Personally identifiable Information” or “PII” is information that can identify you directly (e.g., your name) or indirectly (e.g., your telephone number).]

    In certain areas of our Services, such as those in which you or your organization complete a profile, submit your resume, or create a new account, we may request that you or your organization provide us with certain PII, including but not limited to, your e-mail address, name, date of birth, phone number, profession, or work experience. In most of these situations, we request only the minimum necessary items that are required and specify those that are optional.

  • Non-personally identifiable information
    [“Non-personally identifiable Information” is information that cannot identify you directly or indirectly.
    1. Through our Websites and Web applications: When visitors access Agorai websites, we collect and aggregate information indicating, among other things, which pages were visited, the order in which they were visited, and which links were “clicked”. Collecting such information involves the collection and logging of IP addresses, operating system, and browser software used by each user. The non-personally identifiable information we collect helps us identify the preferences of users of our websites.
    2. Cookies: “Cookies” are small pieces of information that an application sends to your device while you are viewing our websites and applications. Like many websites, we use “cookie” technology to collect additional usage data and to improve our Services. The information we collect using cookies allow us to know when and for how long you have used our websites and applications. Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can change this by editing options in your browser to either stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie. If you stop accepting cookies, it may limit your ability to access or use our Services. We group browser cookies on our site into three categories, which you can manage through our “Cookie Consent Manager” – and you can return to this Cookie Consent Manager at any time to change your preferences.
    • Required cookies:These cookies are necessary to enable the basic features of this site to function, such as allowing images to load or allowing you to select your cookie preferences.
    • Functional cookies:These cookies allow us to analyze your use of the site to evaluate and improve our performance. They may also be used to provide a better customer experience on this site. For example, remembering your log-in details or providing us information about how our site is used.
    • Advertising cookies:These cookies may be used to disclose data with advertisers so that the ads you see are more relevant to you, allow you to disclose certain pages with social networks, or allow you to post comments on our site.

     

    1. Log data: Our computer servers that host our websites and applications may automatically log aggregate information, such as your IP address, domain name, browser type, date and time of access, and other log file data. We do this based on our legitimate interest in making sure our website operates as intended or to identify what may need to be changed.

7. How do we protect your personal information?

We use a variety of industry-standard and reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, modification, or disclosure.

Even though we have taken significant steps to protect your personal information, no company, including us, can fully eliminate security and privacy risks associated with protecting your personal information. There are no guarantees that a data transmission or storage system is 100% secure. Therefore, you acknowledge that there are limitations beyond our control and that the security, integrity, and privacy of your personal information cannot be guaranteed, despite our reasonable commercial efforts.

If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure or your personal information has been compromised by us, please immediately notify us using the details at the ‘Contact Us’ section of this notice. 

8. How long do we keep your personal information?

We will retain your personal information for as long as we need it to provide our Services and to comply with our legal and/or contractual obligations, resolve disputes, support investigations, and enforce our agreements.

Except when required by law, we will not be obligated to retain your personal information for any period of time and are free to delete it without providing any notice.

9. International data transfers

Our technology infrastructure is globally distributed, and we leverage one or more cloud service providers like (but not necessarily including) Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, and Google GCP. We may host, store, process, maintain or transfer your personal information to various locations worldwide. The laws in some of these jurisdictions may not protect your privacy in the same way as your local jurisdiction. By using our Services, you hereby provide your consent to the use, hosting, storage, processing, maintenance, and transfer of your personal information to countries outside your jurisdiction.

Wherever applicable, we will comply with legal requirements in relation to international data transfers.

Regardless of where your information is stored or processed, we apply the same protections described in this Privacy Notice.

10. What is our policy towards Minors?

We do not knowingly collect information from Minors. To use our Services, you must be the age of legal majority in your place of residence. By using our Services, you hereby represent that you are at least the age of legal majority in your place of residence and as per applicable laws. All information provided to us will be treated as if it was provided by an adult. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete information associated with a minor as soon as practicable if we learn that a minor has submitted information about himself/herself to us.

These rights are free in most cases, and we will aim to respond to your request within 30 days or the specific timeframe required by the applicable laws.
