If you have any questions about this Privacy Notice or how we handle your Personal Data please contact our Data Protection Officer by email at daniel.wardin@interactsoftware.com.
Privacy Notice Scope
Our Privacy Notice applies to the information we collect when you use one of our Services, when other sources provide it to us, or when you otherwise engage with Interact, including, but not limited to:
- when you visit our website or community website (“Websites“)
- when you contact us for assistance
- when we connect with you as a prospective customer or as a customer
- when you use one of our SaaS or On-Premise products (“Services“)
- when an account or profile is created on your behalf in one of our SaaS or On-Premise products (typically by your employer)
- when you attend customer or prospective customer events
- when you meet us at third party events, gatherings or meetups
Information Collection & Processing
We collect and process information which either you provide to us, we collect passively, or the information is provided by third party sources. We use this information to enable us to deliver better products and services.
Profile & Account Information
We collect information about you (“Personal data“) and your company in the provision and usage of the Services. This information generally includes:
- Profile information such as first name, surname, email, job title
- Preferences information such as notification and marketing preferences
- Company & Billing information such as billing address, headquarters address and place of work
Content
We may incidentally collect your personal information as part of the content we allow you or other users to create, upload or store in the process of using our services.
The Services include the Interact products you use, where we collect and store content that you post, send, receive and share. This content includes any information about you that you may choose to include.
Information from other sources
We may receive information about you from other Service users (including your employer), from third-party services, from our related companies, social media platforms, public databases, and from our business and channel partners. We may combine this information with information we collect through other means described above. This helps us to update and improve our records, identify new customers, create more personalized advertising and suggest services that may be of interest to you.
Other
We collect Personal Data that you submit to us via our website or third-party tools including, for example, when applying for a job via our website or requesting support in relation to one of our services.
Analytics & Logs
We collect analytics and log information when you use our websites or services to help us improve our product and services. Analytics information also consists of data we collect as a result of running queries against Content created by a user of our SaaS and On-Premise services for the purposes of generating Usage Data. For example, we query the Content to determine the average number of content areas per customer.
Though we may encounter sensitive or other Personal Data as we compile Usage Data from Content across user instances, this is simply a by-product of our efforts to understand broader patterns and trends. In particular, it is not a concerted effort by us to examine the Content of any particular customer.
Cookies
Cookies are small data files placed on your computer by the websites you visit and the emails you read which can be used to help recognize you when you return to a website, or when you visit other sites. We, or third party service providers, may use cookies to, among other things, measure activity, personalize your experience, remember your viewing preferences or track your status or progress when accessing our site. For some of these purposes, our cookies may be tied to Personal Information.

Google Analytics uses cookies to allow us to see how you use our site so we can improve your experience. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use available at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html and the Google Privacy Notice available at http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

Legal bases for processing (for UK and EEA users)
If you are an individual in the UK or the European Economic Area (EEA), we collect and process your Personal Data only where we have a legal basis for doing so under applicable EU laws.

- We need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation; or
- If you have consented to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place. Where we are using your information because we or a third party (e.g. your employer) have a legitimate interest to do so, you may have the right to object to that use though, in some cases, this may mean no longer using the Services.

Data Security
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your Personal Data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition we limit access to your Personal Data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal information on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have also put in place procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspended breach where we are legally required to do so. ISO27001 is the internationally recognised standard for information security and we are also ISO27001 certified for information security.
International Transfers
We hold your Personal Data in your own geolocation. We do use cloud storage. In doing so we ensure that there is an adequate level of protection for your personal information.
We have in place appropriate measures to ensure that your personal information is treated in a way that is consistent with and which respects UK law on data protection by way of binding corporate rules and we are subject to regular audits as a result of our ISO27001 certification, as explained above.
If you require further information about these measures you can request it from the Data Protection Officer.

Notice to End Users
Many of our products are intended for use by organizations. Where the Services are made available to you through an organization (e.g. your employer), that organization is the administrator of the Services and is the Data Controller under GDPR, and is responsible for the accounts and/or Service sites over which it has control. If this is the case, please direct your data privacy questions to your administrator, as your use of the Services is subject to that organization’s policies. We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of an administrator, which may be different to this policy.
