iSpring in its role as processor
Personal information and content you provide through iSpring web-based services. When customers and iSpring partners use iSpring web-based services to process Personal Data in their content, iSpring acts as a data processor. The customer of iSpring that owns an account in iSpring web-based services will be responsible for determining the purposes and means of the processing of the content and any Personal Data provided by end-users of the account, and this iSpring customer (or its end users) will be the data controller in regards to such processing.
Personal information and content you provide using YouTube API and the Zoom Apps features and functionality. When customers and iSpring partners use YouTube API and the Zoom App integrated into iSpring Web-based services to process Personal Data in their content, iSpring acts as a data processor. The customer of iSpring that owns an account in iSpring web-based services will be responsible for determining the purposes and means of the processing of the content and any Personal Data provided by end-users using YouTube API and the Zoom Apps, and this iSpring customer (or its end users) will be the data controller in regards to such processing.
The owner of an account in iSpring web-based services has the right to update the email address associated with his account or deactivate an account by submitting a written request to [email protected].
If at any time iSpring has access to Personal Data stored in the account owned by an iSpring customer, then iSpring shall be a data sub-processor, and any actions performed by iSpring in relation to such data shall be solely governed by the agreement concluded between us and the iSpring customer.
Legal ground for processing
The legal ground depends on the Services you use and how you use them. To process your information as described above, we rely on the following legal bases:
-
Performance of a contract: the use of your information is necessary to provide you the Services, customer support, and personalized features. If you order and use our Services, we will use your information to carry out our obligation to complete and administer that Services under the contract that we have with you;
-
Legitimate interests: the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us, namely for information security. We also want to provide you with the best suitable content of the website, to improve and promote our products and services and the content on our website, and for administrative, fraud detection and legal purposes;
-
Consent: we may rely on your consent to use your Personal Data for specific purposes, for example, for sending newsletters and for certain direct marketing purposes.
How we store and secure information we collect
Information storage. We use data hosting service providers in the United States and Germany to host the information we collect, and we use technical measures to secure your data.
Technical and organizational security procedures and data transfers. We observe reasonable procedures to prevent unauthorized access to and the misuse of Personal Data. We use appropriate business systems and procedures to protect and safeguard Personal Data. We also use security procedures and technical and physical restrictions for accessing and using the Personal Data on our servers. Only authorized personnel are permitted to access Personal Data in the course of their work.
For more information on where we store your information and our security measures, please contact us as provided in the Contact Us section below.
How long we keep information (retention procedures)
iSpring will store your personal information for as long as necessary to perform the purposes of processing as stated in this Policy. After such time, we will either delete or anonymize your information or, if this is not possible (for example, because the information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your information and isolate it from any further use until deletion is possible.
iSpring stores the email addresses of the users who receive the results of test or dialogue simulations for one (1) month in order to restore the results and send them to You or Your users. iSpring no longer uses this data: after a month retention period, all the data will be deleted.
Site account information: We retain your site account information for as long as your site account is active and a reasonable period thereafter in case you decide to re-activate the Services. We also retain some of your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to enforce our agreements, to support business operations, and to continue to develop and improve our Services. Where we retain information for Service improvement and development, we take steps to eliminate information that directly identifies you, and we only use the information to uncover collective insights about the use of our Services, not to specifically analyze personal characteristics about you.
Information you share on the Services: If your site account is deactivated or disabled, some of your information and the content you have provided will remain in order to allow your team members or other users to make full use of the Services. For example, we continue to display messages you sent to the users that received them and continue to display the content you provided.
Managed accounts: If the Services are made available to you through an organization (e.g., your employer), we retain your information as long as required by the administrator of your account.
Marketing information: If you have elected to receive marketing emails from us, we retain information about your marketing preferences for a reasonable period of time from the date you last expressed interest in our Services, such as when you last opened an email from us or ceased using your iSpring site account. We retain information derived from cookies and other tracking technologies for a reasonable period of time from the date such information was created.
Information you provide using the Zoom Apps features and functionality. During integration with the Zoom App, iSpring retains the following information:
-
Zoom access keys
-
Zoom event IDs
-
at the end of an event, we request statistics on users who have attended the event.
When the integration with the Zoom Apps is disabled, iSpring does not delete the event attendance statistics (except access keys and event identifiers) that is associated with users in iSpring Web Services, and could have been modified by iSpring system administrator. iSpring retains these statistics to ensure the integrity of Your account within iSpring Web Services. You can delete these data using iSpring web services administrator panel.
iSpring Web Services do not require an email address for registration for a webinar when You use the Zoom Webinar App. For Your convenience, iSpring transmits a special pregenerated email address to the Zoom Webinar App when you register for an event, which acts as a substitute for your real email address. Thus, connecting the integration through iSpring Web Services does not require Your (or end users’) email addresses, and iSpring also does not transfer Your email addresses to third parties.
