KLIPFOLIO PRIVACY STATEMENT Last Revised: October 1, 2021 At Klipfolio Inc. (“Klipfolio”), your privacy is important to us. The purpose of this privacy statement is to let you know how we collect, use and disclose Personal Information, and to inform you of your rights with respect to such Personal Information. This Privacy Statement is effective as of the effective date of your subscription to the Services. ABOUT KLIPFOLIO Klipfolio offers two online services, Klips® and PowerMetrics, that enable its Customers to aggregate diverse data from multiple sources and quickly create new, actionable perspectives on their business (the “Services”). The Services integrate with hundreds of data sources ranging from social media platforms to enterprise management services. APPLICABILITY OF PRIVACY STATEMENT This Privacy Statement relates to “Personal Information”, meaning information about an identifiable individual, whether, for example, that individual is our Customer, or our Customer’s provisioned user or an individual whose information is part of Processed Data, as these terms are defined below. Whether a person is “identifiable” means that they can be identified by the information itself or by that information combined with other information reasonably available.
This Privacy Statement applies to Personal Information collected or managed by Klipfolio through the use of the Services, data source integrations, and our websites. This Privacy Statement is also intended to explain how we use information which is not identifiable (and thus not Personal Information) that is collected via our websites and the Services. “Customer” refers to the customers of Klipfolio and their provisioned users. “Customer Information” refers to information about our Customers and their provisioned users. "Processed Data” refers to information that is processed by Klipfolio on behalf of our Customers through their use of the Services. Klipfolio does not have a direct relationship with many of the individuals whose Personal Information is included in Processed Data. This privacy statement is intended to provide information about how all Personal Information is collected, used, disclosed, processed and protected by Klipfolio. DATA SOURCE INTEGRATIONS The Service provides Customers and their provisioned users the ability to easily connect to a wide variety of data sources using data source integrations. Some of these third party data source integration providers have terms and conditions particular to their data sources and, by making use of the data source integrations offered by Klipfolio, you acknowledge and agree that your use of the Services may be subject to terms and conditions of those third party providers. For example, by making use of Google data source integrations, such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, Google Drive, Google Sheets, Gmail, Google Search, Google My Business, Google BigQuery, Google Calendar, or YouTube, your acknowledge and agree that your use of those Google services is governed by the terms outlined in the Google Privacy Policy. Also, in addition to the normal Klipfolio procedure for deleting Processed Data stored within the Service, Customers can revoke access to their Google data via the Google security settings page at https://security.google.com/settings/security/permissions. CLASSIFICATION OF INFORMATION When the Service is used by our Customers, we classify the Personal Information we collect, use and disclose into two main categories: The first is Personal Information included in Customer Information, and the second is Personal Information that is included in Processed Data. It is important to note that not all Customer Information or Processed Data is Personal Information, either because it relates to a company or a business, or it is not identifiable. PROCESSED DATA Klipfolio does not control what information a Customer chooses to include in Processed Data. Because we are unable to determine whether it is Personal Information or other information, we treat it as though it may be Personal Information but our Customers are entirely responsible for any Personal Information they choose to include in Processed Data. All Customers and their provisioned users should understand that data in Klipfolio can be exported, shared or displayed by a Customer or provisioned user. Customers and provisioned users are solely responsible for the use of such exported, shared or displayed data and for protecting it appropriately. WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT From our Customers, we only collect Customer Information that is necessary to establish and maintain the provision of the Services to them, as well as to understand and improve the usage and performance of the Services. When our Customers are corporations, as opposed to individuals, this information is not “Personal Information”. This Customer Information includes:

  • Billing address
  • Billing details (as necessary for our internal accounting purposes and for processing payments through our contracted processing service)

  • Login information for third party integrations to Klipfolio, such as usernames and encrypted passwords
  • In connection with our marketing, sales and Customer support functions, we may collect publicly-available information about our Customers and provisioned users, which is used for the purposes set out in this Privacy Statement. PURPOSES FOR COLLECTION We process Customer Information:

  • Login information for third party integrations to Klipfolio, such as usernames and encrypted passwords: To connect to 3rd party services on behalf of the Customer in order to provide the Services
  • As stated in more detail in our Terms of Service, Processed Data is only processed by Klipfolio on behalf of our Customers to provide them with the Services. Individual provisioned users whose Personal Information is contained in Processed Data should refer to the Customer’s privacy policy for an understanding of how Personal Information is collected, used, disclosed and otherwise processed by the Customer by use of the Services. In accordance with our Terms of Service, Klipfolio may use de-identified and/or aggregate information derived from Personal Information, for any purposes, including:
  • Analytics to understand how our Customers and, their provisioned users make use of the Services and our website and to make targeted offerings of certain Services to our Customers and provisioned users;
  • Information used to determine how to make improvements to the Services and to develop new features, capabilities and ways of presenting data; and
  • For commercial purposes, either for Klipfolio or for others.
  • We will take industry standard steps so that this de-identified and/or aggregate information cannot be connected to any particular individual. DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION Klipfolio may share Personal Information with people within the company who have a “need to know” the information for business or legal reasons, for example, in order to carry out an administrative function, such as processing an invoice or supporting questions that you have submitted to Klipfolio. We may share Personal Information with third parties, including:
  • government and regulatory authorities, for example to respond to a legal request or comply with a legal obligation, in which case we will make reasonable efforts to give the relevant individual notice of the disclosure, provided we are able to identify the individual and are lawfully able to do so;
  • for the purposes of seeking legal or other professional advice;
  • suppliers of IT services and third party service providers engaged by Klipfolio as further detailed in this Privacy Statement and our Terms of Service; and
  • in the event that we sell, buy or merge any business or assets, including to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets and their respective professional advisers.
  • We may also share anonymous or de-identified information with other third parties in connection with the purposes outlined in this Privacy Statement. RIGHT OF ACCESS Pursuant to applicable law, you may have certain rights in relation to your Personal Information, including a right of access. If your Personal Information is a part of our Customer’s Processed Data, you should seek this access from the relevant Customer. If we control the Personal Information, we may require additional information to confirm your identity, which will only be used for that purpose. DELETION OF DATA Pursuant to applicable law, you may have certain rights in relation to your Personal Information, including a right of deletion. If your Personal Information is a part of our Customer’s Processed Data, you should seek data deletion from the relevant Customer. If we control the Personal Information, we may require additional information to confirm your identity, which will only be used for that purpose. Klipfolio will retain Processed Data for six (6) months after the termination or expiration of our Customer’s subscription to the Services or, if earlier, upon receipt of a written request for deletion of Processed Data made to Klipfolio support. Klipfolio will retain Customer Information as required to maintain its books and records.

As indicated in the following section, Klipfolio uses service providers outside of Canada to store and manage the certain data and analytics associated with use of the Services.
