About our Privacy Policy

Calldrip Inc. (“Calldrip”, “Colynk” “we”, or “us”) and it’s subsidiaries Colynk Inc. and Calldrip Enterprises Inc., recognizes the importance of privacy. We take seriously our responsibilities in relation to the processing of personal data. We do not collect or process personal data unnecessarily. This privacy policy (the “Policy”) together with our terms of service (the “Terms of Service”) sets out important information about your rights in relation to the processing of your personal data, and the basis on which any personal data we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed in connection with your use of this website (“our Site” or “the Site”) and/or the Calldrip platform, app or service (the “Services”). We do not knowingly attempt to solicit or receive information from children.

Controller

Under this Policy, and unless the circumstances otherwise require, we will be what’s known under the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the “GDPR”) as the “controller” of the personal data you provide to us. An example of such other circumstances would be where you enter into a contract with us to subscribe to the Services, in which case we would normally be the processor and you would be the controller within the meaning of the GDPR and this would be set out in more detail in the Terms of Service or other relevant contracts between us.

We will collect and process the following data about you for the following purposes:

Cookies

What are cookies and why we use them

The Site may use cookies from time to time. “Cookies” are small text files which are stored by your browser on your computer and are normally used to gather statistical information and to analyze trends of use or access to a website. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies may be used to save your personal preferences so you do not have to re-enter them each time you access the Site.

What we do with your information

We will only use your personal information when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

• Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.
• Where it is necessary for our legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
• Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

We have set out below a description of the ways we plan to use your personal data and the legal basis we rely only on to do so. We have also identified our legitimate interests where appropriate:

Change of purpose

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us at support@calldrip.com If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so. Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with this Policy, where this is required or permitted by law.

How long we keep your information

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. This means that the period of time for which we store your personal data may depend on the type of data we hold. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. For example, we may hold personal data as needed for our accounting or tax compliance purposes for a period of 6 years or for 5 years where needed for our compliance with anti-money laundering regulations. For more information about our data retention policies please contact us at support@calldrip.com

Disclosure of your information

International Transfers

Personal Data may be transferred to our trusted partners and service providers who maintain their servers outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), where the privacy and data protection laws may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction. This is only for the purposes of providing, and to the extent necessary to provide, the Services to you. There are special requirements set out under Chapter V of the GDPR (with which we would comply) to regulate such data transfers and ensure that adequate security measures are in place to safeguard and maintain the integrity of your personal data on transfer. For more information about this and the safeguards in place relating to the transfer, please contact us by email at support@calldrip.com

Security Measures

Acknowledgement and Disclaimer

We take our security responsibilities seriously, using the most appropriate physical and technical measures and require our hosting partner to use the same standard of care. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will always do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our Site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access. These are described in more detail below.

Location of Servers and Accessibility

The Services are a SaaS based lead management system  and, as such, your personal data is not stored locally but on a secure server. No installs are required on your PC or laptop. Our web application is only accessible via HTTPS, which helps ensure your interactions with our app are secure and private.

Data Storage

Your personal data is stored on secure servers hosted on the Google Cloud Platform, a service provided by Google. These servers are located in the USA, UK, and Netherlands. The Google Cloud Platform participates in and has certified its compliance with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework. You can read more about Google’s security policy on Google Cloud Security.

Data Backup

Your personal data is backed up on a nightly basis. The Google server data centres are protected by physical barriers and guarded 24/7.

Data Encryption

Data is encrypted using SSL Certification when transmitted from our servers to your browser. The connection from us to the server is secured using a 256 BIT ENCRYPTION key.

Restricted Access

Our servers in Google’s data centre are run in an isolated private network (Google Virtual Private Cloud Service). Access to the production environment where your personal data is stored is limited and is held by us. Only our authorized staff have access to our servers and this is on a ‘need to access’ basis. Access to personal data is limited to specific IP address.

Development and Operations

New features and updates are developed and released on development servers prior to being pushed live to the main production environment. Extensive testing is undertaken by our Quality Team to ensure all new features are working correctly and the performance of the Site and Services is maintained.

Performance Monitoring Applications

The overall performance of the Site and Services is very important. Stackdriver is a performance management solution used for tracking and monitoring the Site and Services. To help avoid or minimize service interruptions, our servers are constantly monitored and a dedicated team are alerted immediately in case of any service disruptions.

Passwords and Authentication

Connection to the Services environment is via TLS cryptographic protocols, using global step-up certificates, ensuring that our users have a secure connection from their browsers to our service. Individual user sessions are identified verified using a unique token created at login. Email address is the unique identifier in the Services.

Your Personal Data and Your Rights

Accessing your Personal Data

You may request access at any time to a copy of the personal data we hold about you. Any such request should be submitted to us in writing and sent to support@calldrip.com. We will need to verify your identity in such circumstances and may request more information or clarifications from you if needed to help us locate and provide you with the personal data requested. There is usually no charge applied to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive, we may charge a reasonable fee. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

Right of Restriction

You may restrict us from processing your personal data in any of the following circumstances:

• You have contested the accuracy of the personal data we hold on record in relation to you or for a period of time to enable us to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
• The processing of your personal data is unlawful and you request the restriction of the use of personal data instead of its erasure;
• We no longer require your personal data for the purpose of processing but you require this data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or
• Where you have contested the processing (under Article 21(1) of the GDPR) pending the verification of our legitimate grounds.

Corrections or Erasure (Right to Rectification and Right to Be Forgotten)

If we hold personal data concerning you which are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or if you withdraw consent for us to process your personal data, you can request the deletion of this personal data. This right, however, will not apply where we are required to process personal data in order to comply with a legal obligation or where the processing of this information is carried out for reasons of public interest in the area of public health. If the personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, you may request to have your personal information updated and corrected. To do so at any time, please contact us by email at support@calldrip.com.

Your Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time:

• For direct marketing purposes
• For profiling to the extent it relates to direct marketing
• Where we process your personal data for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by us, except where we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for this processing which would override your interests, rights, and freedoms or in connection with the enforcement or defence of a legal claim

To exercise your right to object at any time, please email support@calldrip.com. Should this occur, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes unless doing so is justified by a compelling legitimate ground as described above. For more information about our marketing practices, please see the Marketing Communications section below.

Data Portability

Where we process your personal data by automated means (i.e., not on paper) and this processing is based on your consent or required for the performance of a contract between us, you have the right to request from us a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used machine-readable format and, where technically feasible, to request that we transmit your personal data in this format to another controller.

Profiling

Profiling is an automated form of processing of personal data often used to analyze or predict personal aspects about an individual person. This could relate to a person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, reliability, behavior, location or movements. An example of this would be where a bank uses an automated credit scoring system to assess and reject a loan application.

You have the right to be informed if your personal data will be subject to automated decision making, including profiling. You also have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated process, including profiling, where that decision impacts on your legal rights. There are some exceptions to this rule, where, for example, the decision is necessary in connection with the performance of a contract between us, is authorized by law or where you have given your explicit consent to this automated processing. In this case, however, we do not engage in profiling or automated processing for profiling purposes.

Personal Rights

The rights described in this section are personal rights and are exercisable only by the individual person (or data subject) concerned. If we receive any such request or communication directly from your customers and/or in relation to Your End Customer Data, we will refer the matter to you and cooperate in providing such reasonable assistance as may be required to enable you, as a controller, to respond to the matter. This will be described in more detailed in the Terms of Service or the other relevant contract between us.

Marketing Communications

We will not use your data to send marketing communications to you about promotions, competitions, updates and new products or services that may be of interest to you, unless we have your permission to do so.

Your Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for our marketing purposes. To object or if you change your mind at any later time, you can withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal data for such marketing purposes by contacting us at support@calldrip.com You may also opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time by selecting the unsubscribe option when you receive an electronic marketing communication from us. The withdrawal of your consent will not impact upon the lawfulness of processing based on your consent prior to the withdrawal.

Supervisory Authority

We are committed to complying with the terms of the GDPR and to the processing of personal data in a fair, lawful and transparent manner. If, however, you believe that we have not complied with our obligations under the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner.

We use HubSpot and other email marketing service providers

Some of our communications may be sent by email using HubSpot. HubSpot's servers and offices are located in the USA so if you choose to receive marketing communications from us by email, this means that your personal data may be transferred to, stored, or processed in the USA and you consent to the transfer, storing and processing of your personal data in this way. 

Third Party Material

We always endeavor to deal with vendors and other third parties who are GDPR compliant or, in the case of the third parties located outside of the EEA, who are certified as compliant with the EU-US Privacy Shield, as applicable, or who have adequate security measures in place to safeguard the security of personal data. That said, we, our employees, agents, holding company and subsidiaries, accepts no liability howsoever arising for the content or reliability of any third party materials or websites referenced by hyperlink or other means on the Site or for the data collection and use practices or security measures used by such third parties. If you submit personal data to any of those sites, your personal data is governed by their privacy policy. We encourage you to carefully read their privacy policies.
