Privacy Policy

EFFECTIVE DAY FEBRUARY 1 2024

Introduction

This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) applies to Leadmate Services (the “Services”), which include all Leadmate websites, including leadmate.ai (the “Site”), desktop and mobile applications (the “Apps”), software, and related services accessed via any platform or device that links to this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy describes our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information” or “PII”) we receive when you visit, subscribe to, or otherwise interact with our Services. By using our Services, or by submitting information to us—whether through our Site, Apps, or other interactions with us—you accept the terms of this Privacy Policy.

As used in this Privacy Policy: 

  1. the terms “Company”, “we,” and “us” refer to Leadmate, LLC;
  2. the terms “visitor,” “visitors,” “users,” “you,” and “your” refer to individuals who access or use our Services in their capacity as a private individual or consumer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if your use of our Services arises out of your role as an employee, agent, or representative of the employer or other entity on whose behalf you create an account with or otherwise engage our Services (referred to herein as the “Company”), then you acknowledge and agree that Company’s collection of information from you relates solely to your use of our Services on behalf of the Company for business purposes only and not as a private individual or consumer.

By using the Services or by providing information to us while interacting with the Services, you consent to our use and disclosure of your Personal Information as outlined in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy supplements any other privacy notice that we provide to you on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing your Personal Information.

This Privacy Policy is current as of the date that appears at the top of this page. Each time you visit the Site or otherwise use our Services, you should check the date of this Privacy Policy and review any changes since the last time you visited. 

Our Services are controlled and operated within the United States. Your Personal Information may be stored and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers, and by using our Services you consent to the transfer of information to countries outside of your country of residence which may have different data protection rules than those of your country.

This Privacy Policy is written in the English language. We do not guarantee the accuracy of any translated versions of this Privacy Policy. To the extent any translated versions of this Privacy Policy conflicts with the English language version, the English language version shall control.

Information We Collect

We may collect information directly from you through your use of the Services and automatically through your use of the Site. We collect three basic types of information: Personal Information, Sensitive Personal Information, and Non-Personal Information. 

Registration may be required for you to access and interact with certain aspects of our Services. You may, however, browse the informational areas of the Site without giving your Personal Information to us. You are under no obligation to provide us with Personal Information; however, your refusal to do so may prevent you from being able to utilize certain features of the Services.

As used in this Privacy Policy:

  1. The term “Personal Information” (“personal data” under the GDPR) means information that directly or indirectly identifies, relates to, describes, references, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked to, a particular visitor (such as a visitor’s name, address, email address, and telephone number) and also includes any Non-Personal Information that, with the aid of additional information, can identify a particular visitor. Personal Information does not include publicly available information from government records, deidentified or aggregate information, or information excluded from the scope of “Personal Information” or “PII” as defined by applicable law. Because of the nature of our Services, the term “Personal Information” or “PII” also includes the information, including Personal Information and Sensitive Personal Information, you gather, process, receive and/or upload to the Services or otherwise provide to us. We rely on your compliance with our Terms of Service or any other agreement you have with us, in which you represent and warrant that you have express permission to process all information you upload to the Services.
  2. The term “Sensitive Personal Information” means information that reveals your social security, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport numbers, account log-in, financial account, debit card, or credit card numbers, racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, political opinions, mental or physical health diagnosis, sexual orientation or gender identity, citizenship or immigration status, biometric or genetic information, data collected from a known child, the contents of mail, email, and text messages, and precise geolocation data. Company does not request or require you to provide Sensitive Personal Information or other protected classification characteristics. However, we ask that you carefully consider the information contained within any text or materials uploaded or submitted to or through the Services to ensure that you are not providing such categories of Personal Information. As used in this Privacy Policy, we include Sensitive Personal Information as Personal Information. Any Sensitive Personal Information collected will only be used to the extent necessary to provide our Services to you, or as otherwise permitted by applicable data privacy laws and regulations.
  3. The term “Non-Personal Information” means information that, without the aid of additional information, cannot be directly associated with a particular visitor. We may collect Non-Personal Information from you that may not by itself reasonably identify you as the source when you use our Services, or otherwise interact with us. Non-Personal Information may include: (i) device type, (ii) device operating system, (iii) internet browser type, (iv) internet service provider, (v) referring/exit pages, (vi) date/time stamp, and (vii) clickstream information. We will take reasonable measures to ensure that Non-Personal Information we collect is not personally identifiable and may not later be easily used to identify you as required by applicable law.

However, there may be circumstances in which you choose to provide Personal Information to us directly through an online web form available on our Site or by subscribing to receive ongoing email updates from Company about our Services.

For example, certain Personal Information may be collected automatically through the use of browser cookies and other technologies. Our Services may utilize certain behavioral tracking technologies from third parties such as web analytics companies and third-party advertising platforms. These third party services collect information about you (including Personal Information) and your online activities over time and across different websites when you use our Services. 

We or our third-party service providers may also collect Personal Information from email providers, communication providers and social networks, such as your interactions with our email, text, chatbot, phone call, or other communications, including through the use of pixel tags (also known as clear GIFs), which may be embedded invisibly in our communications or related service offerings.

We use both Session and Persistent cookies in connection with our Services. Cookies are not used to determine the personal identity of anyone who is merely visiting our Site.  On certain pages of our Site, cookies are used to help us track your interests while you browse the internet, so we can tailor more relevant advertising to you, and understand what is important to you. 

How do I disable cookies?

Most browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can change your browser settings to block cookies in the future or to warn you when cookies are being sent. If you do not want to receive a cookie through your use of our Services via the Site, you have the option of setting your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, so that you may determine whether to accept it or not.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We may disclose any collected information, including Personal Information, for our business purposes as described below. We only make these business purpose disclosures under written contracts that describe the purposes, require the recipient to keep the Personal Information confidential, and prohibit using the disclosed information for any purpose except performing the contract. In the preceding twelve (12) months, we have disclosed Personal for a business purpose to the categories of third parties indicated below.

We may also “share” certain collected information, including Personal Information, with certain third parties so that our Services are able to function properly and to deliver relevant personalized ads to you on and off our Site. We do not “sell” your Personal Information to third parties for money. However, some of these disclosures—including for purposes of delivering personalized advertisements to you—may constitute the “sharing” or even the “sale” of Personal Information under certain U.S. state privacy laws even though they involve no exchange of money. We do not knowingly “share” or sell Personal Information from children under the age of 16 for advertising purposes.

We may disclose your Personal Information outside of Company to the third parties identified below for a legitimate business purpose:

This information does not identify you personally, but may be used by those marketing and advertising partners and other third parties to enable them to recognize you on other sites and services. Depending on where you reside, this disclosure may be considered a “sale” and you may have the right to opt out.

To Our Service Providers, Vendors, and Contractors

We may disclose your Personal Information where the disclosure is necessary to fulfill your request and involves a third-party organization with which Company has a relationship. For example, we may disclose your Personal Information to third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents who perform specialized functions on our behalf.

To Transaction-Related Parties

If the surviving entity in that transaction is not us, the surviving company may use your Personal Information pursuant to its own privacy policies, and those policies may be different from this Privacy Policy.

With Your Consent

We may disclose your Personal Information to other third parties for any purpose as directed by you or otherwise with your consent.

Company is committed to complying with all applicable data privacy laws and regulations, however, please note that your rights are limited to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Verifiable Consumer Requests

You can exercise your legal rights by submitting a Verifiable Consumer Request to us by:

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a Verifiable Consumer Request related to your PII. Making a Verifiable Consumer Request does not require you to create an account with us. California residents may only make a Verifiable Consumer Request for access to PII twice in a 12-month period.

The Verifiable Consumer Request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative; and
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with PII if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the PII relates to you. We will only use PII provided in a Verifiable Consumer Request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format

We will acknowledge receipt of a Verifiable Consumer Request within ten (10) days. We endeavor to respond to Verifiable Consumer Requests within thirty (30) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to ninety (90) days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the Verifiable Consumer Request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to Verifiable Consumer Requests, unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request. 

Withdraw Consent

Generally, we do not process Personal Information based on explicit consent. However, in the event we do, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing based on said consent before its withdrawal. If you would like to withdraw your consent, please contact us at the Contact Information provided below.

Data Retention 

We will retain your Personal Information while you maintain an account with us or to the extent necessary to provide our Services. Thereafter, we will keep Personal Information for as long as reasonably necessary: (i) to respond to any queries from users; (ii) to demonstrate we treated users fairly; (iii) for ordinary business continuity procedures; and/or (iv) to comply with any applicable laws. We delete Personal Information within a reasonable period after we no longer need the information for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

SPAM

Except as otherwise provided herein, we do not share Personal Information with any third party advertisers.
