Chain Reaction – Website Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 11 January 2023
Chain Reaction Ltd. and its affiliates (“Chain Reaction”, “we”, “our” or “us”) respects the privacy of the users of its website at the address www.chain-reaction.io (the “Site”) and is committed to the protection of the Personal Information (as defined below) that its Users share with it. We believe that you have a right to know our practices regarding the information we may collect and use when you visit or use our Site.
This Website Privacy Policy (this “Privacy Policy”) constitutes a binding and enforceable legal instrument between Chain Reaction and you – so please read it carefully. Capitalized terms that are used but not defined herein, as well as the terms “you” and “User,” shall have the meaning ascribed to them in our Website Terms of Use (“Terms of Use”), which incorporate the terms of this Privacy Policy by reference.
1. YOUR CONSENT
BY ENTERING, CONNECTING TO, ACCESSING AND/OR USING THE SITE, YOU AGREE TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY, INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE COLLECTION AND PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION (AS DEFINED BELOW). IF YOU DISAGREE WITH ANY TERM PROVIDED HEREIN, YOU MAY NOT USE THE SITE.
2. INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We may collect two types of information from our Users:
a. The first type of information is non-identifiable and anonymous information (“Non-Personal Information”). We are not aware of the identity of the User from which we have collected Non-Personal Information. Non-Personal Information is any unconcealed information which is available to us while Users are using the Site. Non-Personal Information which is being gathered consists of technical and behavioral information, and may contain, among other things, the activity of the User on the Site, a User’s “click-stream” on the Site, etc.
b. The second type of information is information which identifies an individual, or may with reasonable effort identify an individual, either alone or in combination with other information (“Personal Information”). This information may identify you or be otherwise associated with you. The Personal Information that we gather consists of any personal details provided voluntarily by the User or on their behalf. The Personal Information required from the User while filling in the contact forms (including the “Login” feature, the “Support” options or use of the Site’s chat widget) may include the User’s full name, e-mail address, phone number, country, company, job title and ICCID (Integrated Circuit Card Identification Number) and the User may also voluntarily provide other information in free text fields as part of a dedicated message to us.
For the avoidance of doubt, any Non-Personal Information connected or linked to any Personal Information shall be deemed Personal Information for as long as such connection or linkage exists. Under this Privacy Policy, the term “information” shall mean both Personal and Non-Personal Information.
We do not collect any Personal Information from you without your approval, which is obtained, inter alia, through your acceptance of the Terms of Use and this Privacy Policy.
