3. WHAT LEGAL BASES DO WE RELY ON TO PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION?
 

In Short: We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason (i.e., legal basis) to do so under applicable law, like with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services to enter into or fulfill our contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfill our legitimate business interests.
 

If you are located in the EU or UK, this section applies to you.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on in order to process your personal information. As such, we may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information:
 

• Consent. We may process your information if you have given us permission (i.e., consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

• Performance of a Contract. We may process your personal information when we believe it is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations to you, including providing our Services or at your request prior to entering into a contract with you.

• Legitimate Interests. We may process your information when we believe it is reasonably necessary to achieve our legitimate business interests and those interests do not outweigh your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms.

• Legal Obligations. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations.

• Vital Interests. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party, such as situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person.
   

If you are located in Canada, this section applies to you.

We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (i.e., express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.

In some exceptional cases, we may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent, including, for example:
 

• If collection is clearly in the interests of an individual and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way

• For investigations and fraud detection and prevention

• For business transactions provided certain conditions are met

• If it is contained in a witness statement and the collection is necessary to assess, process, or settle an insurance claim

• For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next of kin

• If we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may be victim of financial abuse

• If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province

• If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records

• If it was produced by an individual in the course of their employment, business, or profession and the collection is consistent with the purposes for which the information was produced

• If the collection is solely for journalistic, artistic, or literary purposes

• If the information is publicly available and is specified by the regulations

• We may disclose de-identified information for approved research or statistics projects, subject to ethics oversight and confidentiality commitments
   

4. WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
 

In Short: We may share information in specific situations described in this section and/or with the following categories of third parties.

Vendors, Consultants, and Other Third-Party Service Providers. We may share your data with third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents ("third parties") who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work. We have contracts in place with our third parties, which are designed to help safeguard your personal information. This means that they cannot do anything with your personal information unless we have instructed them to do it. They will also not share your personal information with any organization apart from us. They also commit to protect the data they hold on our behalf and to retain it for the period we instruct.
 

The categories of third parties we may share personal information with are as follows:
 

• Website Hosting Service Providers

• Data Analytics Services

• Sales & Marketing Tools

• Cloud Computing Services

5. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

In Short: Yes. We use cookies and similar technologies to operate and improve our Services, and in some cases for analytics and advertising.
 

We use:

• Essential cookies – strictly necessary to provide the Services, such as for security, session management, and functionality. These cannot be disabled.

• Non-essential cookies – including analytics (e.g., Google Analytics), advertising/retargeting, and social media plugins (e.g., LinkedIn, Facebook). These are only placed with your consent.

• Other tracking technologies – such as web beacons, pixels, or local storage, which may operate together with cookies to support analytics, personalization, and security.

Your choices:

• You can manage non-essential cookies via our Cookie Consent Banner/Manager or through your browser settings.

We may share your information with Google Analytics to track and analyze the use of the Services. The Google Analytics Advertising Features that we may use include: Remarketing with Google Analytics. To opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics across the Services, visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

You can opt out of Google Analytics Advertising Features through Ads Settings and Ad Settings for mobile apps.

.

6. IS YOUR INFORMATION TRANSFERRED INTERNATIONALLY?
 

In Short: Yes, we may transfer, store, and process your information outside your country of residence, including to the United States and other jurisdictions that may not provide the same level of data protection.
 

Our servers are located in the United States, and we may engage service providers, contractors, or subprocessors who operate in multiple countries. This means your personal information may be transferred to — and processed in — countries other than your own.

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), or Switzerland, these countries may not have data protection laws as comprehensive as those in your jurisdiction. However, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are implemented to protect your personal information, including:
 

• The European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) for international transfers;

• The UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or Addendum to the SCCs, where applicable; and

• Additional security and contractual safeguards as required by law.
   

Copies of the relevant transfer mechanisms are available upon request (with redactions for commercial confidentiality where appropriate).
 

7. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
 

In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice unless otherwise required by law.

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).
 

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

For prospects and former clients, we may retain limited business contact details for a reasonable period for lawful B2B marketing purposes, unless you opt out.

8. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
 

In Short: We protect your personal information through organizational and technical safeguards, consistent with industry standards.
 

We have implemented appropriate and commercially reasonable security measures designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of personal information we process. These measures include, where appropriate, access controls, encryption in transit and at rest, network monitoring, and role-based access management.
 

Although we maintain these safeguards, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed 100% secure. Accordingly, we cannot ensure absolute protection against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. We therefore encourage you to take reasonable precautions when transmitting personal information to and from our Services, including use of secure networks and properly maintained devices.
 

9. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?
 

In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction.
 

We do not knowingly collect, solicit data from, or market to children under 18 years of age or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction, nor do we knowingly sell such personal information. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under age 18 or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction, please contact us at contact@privatebdagency.com.

For clarity, our Services are intended solely for business and professional users (see Section 1) and are not directed to or designed for minors.

10. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?
 

In Short: Depending on your state of residence in the US or in some regions, such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), Switzerland, and Canada, you have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information. You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time, depending on your country, province, or state of residence.
 

In some regions (like the EEA, UK, Switzerland, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure, (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information, (iv) if applicable, to data portability, and (v) not to be subject to automated decision-making. If a decision that produces legal or similarly significant effects is made solely by automated means, we will inform you, explain the main factors, and offer a simple way to request human review. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. You can make such a request by contacting us using the contact details provided in the section "HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?" below.
 

We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
 

Supervisory Authorities

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. A list of supervisory authorities and their contact details is available here.

If you are located in the United Kingdom, you may contact the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) through the following page.

If you are located in Switzerland, you may contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) through the following page.
 

Withdrawing your consent: If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us using the contact details provided in the section "HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?" below.
 

However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
 

Opting out of marketing and promotional communications: You can unsubscribe from our marketing and promotional communications at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send, replying "STOP" or "UNSUBSCRIBE" to the SMS messages that we send, or by contacting us using the details provided in the section "HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?" below. You will then be removed from the marketing lists. However, we may still communicate with you — for example, to send you service-related messages that are necessary for the administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.

Mobile Information: We do not sell or share mobile phone numbers with unaffiliated third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes. We may use mobile information internally, and share it with trusted subcontractors in support of customer service, business development, and marketing, in compliance with applicable law. Text messaging opt-in data and consent will never be sold or shared outside these purposes.
 

Cookies and similar technologies: Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our Services.

If you have questions or comments about your privacy rights, you may email us at contact@privatebdagency.com.

We will respond to valid requests within the timeframes required by applicable law (typically within 30 days under GDPR/UK GDPR).

We may keep a record of your request and our response to demonstrate compliance.
 

11. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
 

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Notice.

California law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not respond to them at this time.
 

12. DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?
 

In Short: If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, or Virginia, you may have the right to request access to and receive details about the personal information we maintain about you and how we have processed it, correct inaccuracies, get a copy of, or delete your personal information. You may also have the right to withdraw your consent to our processing of your personal information. These rights may be limited in some circumstances by applicable law. More information is provided below.
