This policy sets out how we handle your personal information if you’re an IntelliMagic user or visitor to our Sites. It applies across IntelliMagic Sites. When we say ‘we’, ‘us’ or ‘IntelliMagic’ it’s because that’s who we are and we own and run the Sites.

The type of personal information we collect

We collect certain personal information about visitors and users of our Sites.

The most common types of information we collect include things like: IP addresses, web analytics data, and any information you may provide such as email addresses, other contact details, and blog comments.

How we collect personal information

We collect personal information directly when you provide it to us, and automatically as you navigate through the Sites.

We collect your personal information when you provide it to us when you subscribe to a newsletter or email list, submit feedback, fill out a form to watch a video or download a white paper, or send us a communication.

We will use your personal information:

  • Where this is necessary for purposes which are in our, or third parties, legitimate interests. These interests include:
    • operating the Sites;
    • monitoring activity on the Sites, e.g., to identify potential fraudulent activity and to ensure compliance with the user terms that apply to the Sites;
    • purposes which are required by law;
    • the purpose of responding to requests by government, a court of law, or law enforcement authorities conducting an investigation.
  • Where you give us consent:

Information you make public or give to others

If you make your personal information available to other people, we can’t control or accept responsibility for the way they will use or manage that data. There are lots of ways that you can find yourself providing information to other people, like when you post a public response on blog, share information via social media. Before making your information publicly available or giving your information to anyone else, think carefully. If giving information to another user via our Sites, ask them how they will handle your information. If you’re sharing information via another website, check the privacy policy for that site to understand its information management practices as this privacy policy will not apply.

How long we keep your personal information

We will need to change this policy from time to time in order to make sure it stays up to date with the latest legal requirements and any changes to our privacy management practices.

When we do change the policy, we’ll make sure to notify you about such changes, where required. A copy of the latest version of this policy will always be available on this page.

How you can contact us

If you’re a user or visitor in the European Economic Area these rights also apply to you

For the purposes of applicable EU data protection law (including the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (the “GDPR”), we are a ‘data controller’ of your personal information.

How you can access your personal information

You are also entitled to ask us to port your personal information (i.e., to transfer in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, to you), to erase it, or restrict its processing. You also have rights to object to some processing that is based on our legitimate interests, such as profiling that we perform for the purposes of direct marketing, and, where we have asked for your consent to process your data, to withdraw this consent as more fully described below.

These rights are limited in some situations – for example, we can demonstrate that we have a legal requirement to process your personal information. In some instances, this means that we may retain some data even if you withdraw your consent.

Where we require your personal information to comply with legal or contractual obligations, then provision of such data is mandatory: if such data is not provided, then we will not be able to manage our contractual relationship with you, or to meet obligations placed on us. In all other cases, provision of requested personal information is optional.

If you have unresolved concerns you also have the right to complain to data protection authorities. The relevant data protection authority will be the data protection authority of the country: (i) of your habitual residence; (ii) of your place of work; or (iii) in which you consider the alleged infringement has occurred.

Both personal information and personal data have the same meaning in the context of this Privacy Policy.
