Specifically, this Privacy Policy describes our practices regarding –

Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to making our practices regarding your personal data fair and transparent.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully and make sure that you fully understand it. You are not legally required to provide us with any of your personal data and may do so (or avoid doing so) at your own free will. If you do not wish to provide us with your personal data, or to have it processed by us or any of our service providers, please simply do not visit or interact with our Sites, nor use our Service. You may also choose not to provide us with “optional” personal data, but please keep in mind that without it we may not be able to provide you with the full range of our services or with the best user experience when using our Service.

This Privacy Policy pertains to shellkey.company practices as a “data controller”, where we determine the means and purposes for processing personal data. Where we process data on our business customers’ (“Customers”) behalf, we act as their “data processor”, pursuant to our agreement with them (as further explained in Section ‎9 below). If you are a User of the Service on behalf of any of our customers, we suggest that you contact your account administrator(s) (“Account Admin”) with any questions or requests which pertain to the personal data processed by us on such Customer’s behalf.

1. Data Collection

We collect technical data, profile data, content, and other data received from you, your organization, and other third-party sources.

We collect and control various types of personal data regarding our Users and visitors to our Sites. Such data is collected and generated through your interaction with us or with our Service, through automatic means, or directly from you, from other Users, from our Customers, or from other third parties (including our Service Providers, as defined below).Specifically, we collect the following categories of data (which, to the extent it relates to an identified or identifiable individual, is deemed as “personal data”):

Data automatically collected or generated: When you visit, interact with, or use our Service, we collect, record, or generate certain technical data about you. We do so either independently or with the help of third-party Service Providers (as defined in Section ‎‎4 below), including the use of “cookies” and other tracking technologies (as detailed in Section ‎5 below).

Such data consists of connectivity, technical and aggregated usage data, such as IP addresses and general locations, device and application data (like type, operating system, mobile device or app id, browser version, locale and language settings used), date and time stamps of usage, the relevant cookies and pixels installed on or interacted with via such device, and the recorded activity (sessions, clicks, use of features, logged activities and other interactions) of visitors and Users in connection with our Service. In addition, phone calls (e.g., with our customer service or product consultants) may be automatically recorded, tracked, and analyzed, for purposes including analytics, service-, operations-, and business quality control and improvements, training, and record-keeping purposes.

User Data received from you: When you contact us, sign up to the Service and create your individual profile (“User Profile”), or sign up to an event that we host, organize or sponsor, you provide us with personal data. This would typically include your name, workplace, and position, contact details (such as e-mail, phone, and address), account login details (e-mail address and passwords which are automatically hashed), as well as any other data you choose to provide when you use our Service, contact us, or interact with others via our Service. For example, you may connect your Google or LinkedIn account when you sign up or login to the Service, and thereby provide us with your name, e-mail address, image, and other details available on your profile there. You may also provide us with your profile photo, location, time-zone, skills, device, general location, and activity logs and data; as well as your preferences, characteristics, and objectives for using the Service (collectively, “User Data”).

You may also send us a “Contact Us” or support requests, or provide us with feedback, reviews, or responses to our surveys or promotions, including by submitting an online form on our Service or social media channels, by posting on any of our online public forums or communities, by sending an e-mail to any of our designated addresses, or any other form of communication. Such data may include details on an issue you are experiencing, contact information and any other documentation, screen recording, screenshots, or other information.

Our customers may provide us with additional data such as their billing details, business needs and preferences. To the extent that such data concerns a non-human entity (e.g., the bank account of a company or business), it will not be regarded as “personal data” in most countries.

User Data received from our Customers and Users: Customers and Users may provide us with the contact details of potential Users, such as their employees, team members and colleagues, for us to contact, invite or subscribe them as Users to our Service (including by using Single sign-on tools). Such data typically includes these individuals’ names, phone numbers and work e-mails, however additional data may be provided at the discretion of those providing it. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, this data is also regarded as User Data.

Data received from other third parties: We may receive personal data which relates to you from other sources. For example, if you participate in an event, webinar or promotion that we sponsor or participate in, we may receive your personal data from its organizers. We may also receive your contact and professional details (e.g., your name, company, position, contact details and professional experience, preferences, and interests) from our Partners (defined below), from our service providers, and using tools and channels commonly used for connecting between companies and individual professionals to explore potential business and employment opportunities, such as LinkedIn.

Analytics tools collect data such as how often Users and visitors visit or use the Sites or Service, which pages they visit and when, which website, ad or e-mail message brought them there, and how they interact with and use our Service and its various features.

This includes instances where you contact us for help in resolving an issue specific to a team of which you are a member (and which is managed by the same Customer). Also, in cases where your personal data appears in Boards within that Account that are set as “private” or with limited view privileges, the Account Admin may still access it on behalf of the Customer.

Any content submitted by you to private Boards may still be accessed, copied, and processed by the Account Admin. Your User Profile and User Data will also be made available to all the authorized Users who can view the same Board(s) as you.

This could include your User Data. Note that we do not receive or store your passwords for any of these third-party services (but do typically require your API key to integrate with them). If you do not wish your data to be shared with such third-party service(s), please contact your Account Admin.

9. Data Controller/Processor

Contact support@shellkey.company for Controller of our visitors’ and Customers’ personal data, and of certain types of User Data; we are the Processor of any personal data submitted to our Service (i.e., into Boards and Items), and of User Data processed on behalf of our customer.

Certain data protection laws and regulations, such as the GDPR or the CCPA, typically distinguish between two main roles for parties processing personal data: the “Data Controller” (or under the CCPA, “business”), who determines the purposes and means of processing; and the “Data Processor” (or under the CCPA, “service provider”), who processes such data on behalf of the Data Controller (or business). Below we explain how these roles apply to our Service, to the extent that such laws and regulations apply.

Our role as a Data Controller: Contact support@shellkey.company for “Data Controller” of its visitors’ and Customers’ personal data, as well as User Data consisting of profile and contact details, usage, preferences, engagement and analytics data, and such data detailed in Section 1 above. With respect to this data, shellkey.company assumes the responsibilities of Data Controller (solely to the extent applicable under law), as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

Our role as a Data Processor: If any of our Users upload or submit content to our Service which includes personal data (e.g., by submitting their own clients’ or employees’ contact details to one of their Boards), such data will be processed by shellkey.company solely on behalf of our customer, which is the owner of the respective Account, along with all other User Data processed on such Customer’s behalf.

In such instances, our Customer shall be deemed the “Data Controller” of such data, and shellkey.company will process such data on the Customer’s behalf, as its “Data Processor”, in accordance with its reasonable instructions, subject to terms and other commercial agreements with such Customer. Where shellkey.company is the “Data Processor” of the Customer’s personal data, shellkey.company, Service Providers who process such data are deemed as its sub-processors. The Customer will be responsible for meeting any legal requirements applicable to Data Controllers (such as establishing a legal basis for processing, providing data subjects with sufficient information about their personal data, and responding to Data Subject Rights requests concerning the personal data they control).

If you would like to make any requests or queries regarding personal data we process as a Data Processor on our Customer’s behalf, including accessing, correcting, or deleting your data, please contact their Account Admin directly.
