Processing Activities Covered

This Privacy Policy applies to the processing of personal information collected by us when you:

Third Party Links and Websites. Our Sites may contain links to and from the websites of third parties. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any data to these websites.

Information We Collect

Information You Give Us. You may give us information by signing up for an online account, entering information through our online forms or surveys, inputting information while using our services, or contacting us by phone or email for information or customer service.

The categories of information include:

Information We Automatically Collect.

Information We Collect From Third Parties. If you access our Sites through third parties (e.g., Facebook or Google), or if you share content from our Sites to a third-party social media service, the third-party service will send us certain information about you if the third-party service and your account settings allow such sharing. The information we receive will depend on the policies and your account settings with the third-party service.

How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information for the following purposes:

How We Share Your Information

To Users or the Public with Your Consent. We may share your information, including your username and user content, with other users or the public with your consent. The settings you choose will determine how much information is shared with other users and/or the public.

Affiliates and Service Providers. We share your information with our third-party service providers and any subcontractors as required to offer you our products and services. The service providers we use help us to:

Some external service providers may also collect information directly from you (for example, a payment processor may request your billing and financial information) in accordance with their own privacy policy. These external service providers do not share your financial information, like credit card number, with us, but may share limited information with us related to your purchase, like your zip code.

Aggregated Data. We may also aggregate or otherwise strip information of all personally identifying characteristics and may share that aggregated, anonymized data with third parties or publish it. This data does not personally identify you and helps us to measure the success of our Sites and services and their features and to improve your experience. We reserve the right to make use of any such aggregated data as we see fit.

Third Party Marketing and Advertising Organizations. With respect to website cookies, we share your information with third-party marketing and advertising partners to market our services on our Sites and other websites that you may visit.

Disclosures Required by Law. We may be required to disclose your data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet law enforcement requirements. We may be under a duty to disclose or share your personal information to comply with any legal obligation, to enforce or apply our terms and conditions and other agreements, to protect our rights, property, or safety, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection.

How We Respond to ‘Do Not Track’ Signals

Some browsers provide you with a way to signal that you do not want your browsing activity to be tracked. The Sites may not currently respond to all Do Not Track (“DNT”) or similar signals, as we are awaiting consensus from the Internet policy and legal community on the meaning of DNT and the best way to respond to these signals. We do not currently recognize or respond to Opt-Out Preference Signals, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC).

Cookies

To make our Sites and services work properly, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, shopping cart, or other preferences) over a period of time, so you do not have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

Google Analytics. We may use Google Analytics. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve the Sites. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy for more information. You may also choose to download the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

You may wish to restrict the use of cookies. Please be aware that some of the features of our Sites may not function correctly if you disable cookies. Most modern browsers allow you to change your cookie settings. You can usually find these settings in the options or preferences menu of your browser. To understand these settings, the following links for commonly used browsers may be helpful:

Personalized Advertising. We may also use targeted advertising cookies, such as Google Ads, to deliver tailored advertising on our Sites and other websites that you may visit. You can learn more about how to control advertising cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link, the DAA’s Consumer Opt-Out link for browsers, or the DAA’s opt-out link for mobile devices. Please note that electing to opt-out will not stop advertising from appearing in your browser or applications and may make the ads you see less relevant to your interests.

Privacy Choices

Marketing Opt-Out: We may use your personal information to contact you with newsletters, marketing or promotional materials and other information that may be of interest to you. You may opt out of receiving any, or all, of these communications from us by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in any email we send, or you can contact us using the contact details provided in the “Contact Information” section below. You will still continue to receive service-related messages concerning products and services you have purchased (unless we have indicated otherwise).

Third Party Marketing. If you are one of our customers, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits you to request information regarding the disclosure of your personal information to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. We do not disclose your personal information to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes.

Exercising Your Privacy Rights. We understand you may have additional rights in your jurisdiction. You may contact us directly at any time about exercising your data protection rights. We will consider your request in accordance with applicable laws.

Children’s Privacy

The Sites and services are not directed at individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us using the contact details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information.

Change of Control

Personal information may be transferred to a third party because of a sale, acquisition, merger, reorganization, or other change in control. If we sell, merge, or transfer any part of the business, part of the sale may include your personal information.

Data Security

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you enter, submit, or access your personal information. However, no website, application, or transmission can guarantee security. Thus, while we have established and maintain what we believe to be appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of personal information obtained through the Sites and services, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.

Data Transfer

When a user is removed from a Visla collaboration workspace they have joined, their private data may be transferred to other collaborators, depending on the workspace settings. Users who are concerned about their privacy should consider the following options:

  1. Review Workspace Settings: Before joining a workspace, review the relevant settings to understand how your private data will be managed.

  2. Request Setting Changes: If privacy concerns arise, ask the workspace owner to change the relevant settings to better protect your data.

  3. Opt-Out: If the privacy settings do not meet your requirements, you may choose not to join the workspace.

Data Retention

We retain information from or about you for so long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. When the information is no longer necessary for these purposes, we delete it or keep it in a form that does not identify you, unless we are required by law to keep this information for a longer period. When determining the retention period, we take into account various criteria, such as the type of products and services requested by or provided to you, the nature and length of our relationship with you, possible re-enrollment with our products or services, the impact on the services we provide to you if we delete some information from or about you, mandatory retention periods provided by law and the statute of limitations.

Data Deletion and Access Requests

At Visla, we understand the importance of your privacy and give you the control to manage your personal data. If you wish to request the deletion, please follow the steps below:

Policy Updates

This policy may be periodically updated. We encourage you to periodically review this Privacy Policy to ensure you are familiar with the most current version. Please review carefully before submitting personal information to our Sites. The date the Privacy Policy was last updated is indicated at the top of this page.
