Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how ConnectX Co., Ltd, including its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, ConnectX and also referred to as our, us and we) collects, uses and discloses personal data, as well as any choices you have with respect to this personal data.
When we refer to “ConnectX”, we mean the ConnectX entity that acts as the controller or processor of your personal data, explained in more detail in the “Identifying the Data Controller and Processor” section below.

Applicability of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to ConnectX’s platform, including the associated ConnectX mobile and desktop applications (collectively, the “Services”), Connect-x.tech and other ConnectX websites (collectively, the “Websites”) and other interactions (e.g. customer support, the ConnectX Community, etc.) you may have with ConnectX, including the processing of any messages, files, video or audio recordings, prompts or other content submitted through our Services (collectively, “Customer Content”). This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party applications or software that integrate with our Services (“Third-Party Services”), or any other third-party products, services or businesses.
The organization (e.g., your employer or another entity or person) (“Customer”) that entered into the Terms of Service and any product-specific Terms (together, the “Customer Agreement”) controls its instance of the Services (its “Organization”) and any associated Customer Content. Individuals that are granted access to an Organization by a Customer (“Authorized Users”) routinely submit Customer Content to ConnectX when using the Services.
If you have any questions about specific Organization settings and privacy practices, please contact the Customer whose Organization you use. If you have received an invitation to join an Organization but have not yet created an account, you should request assistance from the Customer that sent the invitation.

Identifying the Data Controller and Processor

Data protection law in certain jurisdictions differentiates between the “controller” and “processor” of personal data. In general, Customer is the controller and ConnectX is the processor of Customer Content.
As the controller for Customer Content, Customer may, for example, use the Services to grant and remove access to an Organization, assign roles and configure settings, access, modify, export, share and remove Customer Content and otherwise apply its policies to the Services.
As the processor for Customer Content, ConnectX processes Customer Content only on Customer’s request and in accordance with Customer’s written instructions, including the applicable terms in the Customer Agreement, Customer’s use of the Services, and as required by applicable law. For more information about how Customer Content is processed (such as how your personal data is processed, the purpose and legal basis for processing, and your data subject rights), we refer you to the relevant Customer’s privacy notice.
ConnectX is the controller for certain other categories of data (described in paragraph 3 below). If you have any questions or complaints, or would like to exercise your rights with regard to your personal data, please contact us at [email protected]

The types of personal data we collect

Your personal data is provided by you, obtained from third parties, and/or created by us when you use the Services.
ConnectX may collect and receive Customer Content and other personal data (“Other Data”) in a variety of ways:

• Customer Content. Customers or Authorized Users routinely submit Customer Content to ConnectX when using the Services.
• Other Data. ConnectX also collects, generates and/or receives Other Data:
• Organization and account information. To create or update an Organization account, you or the relevant Customer (e.g. your employer) will supply ConnectX with an email address, phone number, password, domain and/or similar account details. We may also receive your email address and name from Slack or other organisations with whom our platform has integrations through which you may sign up to use our Services. This may also happen if you are a Free, Team or Business User whose employer purchases an Enterprise version of the Services. In addition, Customers that purchase a paid version of the Services provide ConnectX (or its payment processors) with billing details such as credit card information, banking information and/or a billing address.
• Usage data.
  • Service metadata. When an Authorized User interacts with the Services, metadata is generated to provide additional context about their use of the Services. For example, ConnectX logs the Organizations, boards, people, features, content and links that you view or interact with, as well the types of files shared and any Third-Party Services that you use.
  • Log data. Like most websites and services delivered over the Internet, our servers automatically collect information when you access or use our Websites or Services, recording this information in log files. This log data may include the Internet Protocol (IP) address, the address of the web page visited before using the Website or Services, your browser type and settings, the date and time the Services were used, information about browser configuration and plugins, and language preferences.
  • Device data. ConnectX collects information about devices accessing the Services, including the type of device, operating system used, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this Other Data often depends on the type of device used and its settings.
  • Location data. We receive information from you, the relevant Customer and other third-parties that helps us approximate your location.

  • Third-party data. ConnectX may receive data about organizations, industries, lists of companies that are customers, Website visitors, marketing campaigns and other matters relevant to our business from parent corporations, affiliates and subsidiaries, our partners, or other third parties that we use to make our own information more useful. This data may be combined and may include aggregate-level data. For example, information about how well an online marketing or email campaign performed, or to create a business contacts directory.
  • Cookie data. ConnectX uses a variety of cookies and similar technologies in our Websites and Services to help us collect Other Data. For more details about how we use these technologies, as well as your opt-out opportunities and other options, please see our Cookie Notice.
  • Email performance data. ConnectX uses a ‘clear image’ (gif) in email communications in order to track engagement and performance metrics. Much of this data is aggregated and does not contain personal data. If you wish to turn off this tracking, you can do so by turning off images in the email itself.
  • Third-Party Services data. A Customer may choose to use Third-Party Services. If Customer enables Third-Party Services, ConnectX may access and exchange Customer Content and Other Data with the Third-Party on Customer’s behalf, in accordance with our agreement with the Third-Party Services and any permissions granted by the Customer (including its Authorized User(s)).
  • Contactdata. In accordance with the consent provided by your device or other third-party API, we process any contact information that an Authorized User chooses to import when using the Services.
  • Call data. Our Customer Success team may record video or telephone calls with Customers for the purposes of training and quality assurance. You will be notified of this when a recording is made, and can request that ConnectX does not record these calls.
  • Additional data provided to ConnectX. We also receive Other Data when submitted to our Websites or in other ways, such as when you request support, interact with our social media accounts or otherwise communicate with ConnectX.
• Business data. ConnectX may receive information about individuals from organisations, industries, Customers, (potential) partners, parent corporations, affiliates and subsidiaries, and our partners for cooperation and communication purposes.
