Who we might share your information with

 

We may give your information to selected third parties who process your personal information on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions and Data Protection Law (“processors) and certain other third parties who provide services to us or who may provide goods or services to you in connection with our goods or services. This includes supporting the goods and services we offer through the website and otherwise – in particular those providing website and data hosting services, providing fulfilment services, distributing any communications we send and providing IT support services from time to time and supplying tools and services to enable the use of our goods and services. These organizations will only use your information to the extent necessary to perform their functions.

 

For example, we use Hotjar in order to better understand our users’ needs and to optimize this service and experience (e.g. how much time they spend on which pages, which links they choose to click, what users do and don’t like, etc.) and this enables us to build and maintain our service with user feedback. We also use Salesforce to support our customer engagement and the provision of our services, and we use Workable to support our hiring and recruitment processes.  

 

We will also disclose your personal information to third parties:

 

  • In the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, in which case we will disclose your personal information to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets subject to the terms of this privacy policy, where it is reasonable and proportionate to do so.

 

  • If Nuclera or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal information held by it about its customers will be one of the transferred assets and it will disclosed to the prospective or actual seller.

 

In all of these cases the basis for the disclosure is that it is in our legitimate interest in developing our business.

In some circumstances we may be under a duty to disclose your personal information in order to comply with our legal obligation in which case the basis for our doing so is that it is necessary for us to so comply, or in order to enforce or apply our terms of supply terms and other agreements with you; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and to prevent crime.  In these cases the basis for doing so is our legitimate interest in protecting our business.

 

Analytic Services and Targeted Ads 

We use third-party analytics services, like Google Analytics, to collect, monitor and analyze data we collect through our Services to better understand how our Services are used and to improve their functionality.  These services may track details about your online activities over time and across different websites.  These services may also allow us and others to provide you with targeted advertisements or other content that you may be interested in based on your online activities.  If you wish to opt out of interest-based advertising please email us at [email protected]. Please note you will continue to receive generic ads.

The Google Analytics service tracks and reports website traffic and provides us insight into behavior information relating to visitor age, gender and interests.  Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting give us insight into behavior to help us understand browsing behavior and give you a better experience when you visit our Services. You can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customize Google Display Network ads using the Ads Settings. 

These third-party services have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information. We recommend you review their privacy policies. If you want to prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics, you may wish to take advantage of Google Analytics’ currently available opt-outs for the web.  

If you would like to learn more about targeted ads that may be based on your online activities, and the choices that you may exercise for certain sites and advertisers, you may wish to visit the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance.

If you believe that we might have any personal information from or about a minor, please contact us at [email protected].

 

How long we keep your information

We typically retain personal information for as long as you have an account or do business with us in order to meet our contractual obligations to you and for six years after that to identify any issues and resolve any legal proceedings. 

 

We may also be required by law to keep certain financial records for longer than the above period. This will be notified to you at the relevant time of providing that information.

 

We may also retain aggregate information beyond this time for research purposes and to help us develop and improve our services. You cannot be identified from aggregate information retained or used for these purposes.

We will keep your personal data only for so long as is necessary for the purposes of our processing or for any legally required period.

 

Broadly, this is for as long as we have an active relationship with you or your employer and for as long as necessary afterwards:

  • to respond to any questions, complaints or claims made by you or on your behalf;
  • to keep records required by law; and
  • to enforce or defend our rights against any possible legal action for the applicable limitation period, which is typically six years after the cause of action arose.

Because the purposes and types of personal data that we process vary, different retention periods apply.
