ClientSuccess may use the personal information provided to operate the Service and tailor its customers needs, for billing, identification and authentication, to contact and communicate with you and your Agents about the Service and your and their use of the Service, send marketing materials (subject to your opt-out option), for research purposes, and to generally improve the content and functionality of the Service. We may share your personal information with third parties (including our service providers and government entities) to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud or security or technical issues.
B. Your customers’ Personal Data: You may submit various types of information and data into the Services for hosting and processing purposes (“Customer Data”). Customer Data may include, without limitation, (a) personal information such as names, email addresses and phone numbers of your end-user customers, potential customers and other users of and visitors to your websites, apps and other properties, which information may be input into the Services by you or collected by the Services using ClientSuccess tags, scripts and other code implemented on such properties, and (b) information contained in communications between you and your customers using features of the Services.

Usage Data
We collect information on how you interact with the Services, such as the IP address from which you access the Service, date and time, information about your browser, operating system and computer or device, pages viewed and items clicked. We may also collect location information, including location information automatically provided by your computer or device. We use cookies and similar technologies to collect some of this information.
Log Files
As is true with most websites, ClientSuccess gathers certain information automatically and stores it in log files. This information includes internet protocol addresses as well as browser, internet service provider, referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. Occasionally, we may collect personal information to information gathered in our log files, as necessary to improve the Service for individual customers. Otherwise, we generally use this information as we would any Usage Data, to analyze trends, administer and maintain the Service, or track usage of various features within the Service.
Cookies
A cookie is a small software file stored temporarily or placed on your computers hard drive. The main purpose of a cookie is to allow a web server to identify a users computer and web browser, and tailor web pages and/or login information to their preferences. Cookies help us promptly display the information needed to use the capabilities of the Service and other information which we consider to be of interest to visitors to the ClientSuccess Websites and users of the Service. By gathering and remembering information about website preferences through cookies, we can provide a better web and marketing experience. Cookies don’t give us access to user’s computers, and the information we collect through cookies doesn’t include personal information.
When your agents or end-users use the Service we utilize session cookies, which allow us to uniquely identify your browser while you are logged in and to process your online transactions. Session cookies disappear from your computer when the web browser is closed or the computer is turned off. We also utilize persistent cookies to identify ClientSuccess Agents and End Users and make it easier for them to log into and use the Service. Persistent cookies remain on computers after the web browser is closed or the computer is turned off.
We utilize various categories of cookies, which are summarized below along with the options available to you to manage them.
Essential: Essential cookies are those that are critical to the functionality of the Service. We use these cookies to keep an agent or end-user logged into the Service and remember relevant information when the agent or end-user returns to the Service.
Functional: We use functional cookies to track agents and end-users activities in the Service, understand their preferences and improve their user experience. These cookies can also be used to remember configurations of the Service that our customers can customize.
Marketing: We engage third party providers to serve a variety of marketing cookies that enable us to track and analyze usage, navigational and other statistical information from visitors to the ClientSuccess Websites. This information does not include personal information though we may re-associate this information with personal information we have collected when it is received. Marketing cookies are also used to track the performance of our advertisements and are employed by third-party advertising networks that we utilize. These advertising networks follow online activities of visitors to the ClientSuccess Websites and use this information to inform, optimize and serve tailored advertisements on the ClientSuccess Websites or on other websites they visit that we believe would most effectively promote the Service to you. We also use third parties to collect information that assists us in other methods of remarketing our Service to visitors to the ClientSuccess Websites, including customized email communications.
You can generally accept or decline the use of cookies through a functionality built into your web browser.
Many jurisdictions require or recommend that website operators inform users as to the nature of cookies they utilize and, in certain circumstances, obtain the consent of their users to the placement of certain cookies. If you are a customer of ClientSuccess, it is your responsibility to inform the individuals with whom you interact using the Service, including your agents and end-users as to the types of cookies utilized in the Service and, as necessary, to obtain their consent. If you require more specific information as to the nature of the cookies utilized in the Service for purposes of fulfilling these obligations, please contact us by email at privacy@clientsuccess.com.
Web Beacons
We also may employ web beacons to help us better manage content in the Service by informing us what content is effective. Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of internet users. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on websites. We tie the information gathered by web beacons to personal information we otherwise collect, and use them in our HTML-based emails to learn which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns as well as to operate and improve the Service. You can opt-out of these emails by following the unsubscribe instructions within such marketing emails.
Do Not Track Signals
We do not currently respond to web browsers Do Not Track signals that provide a method to opt-out of the collection information about visitor’s activities on the ClientSuccess Website and Service, and across other websites. If we do so in the future, we will provide all relevant information in this Policy.
Use of Your Information
We will never sell your data to third parties. However, in the course of business, we may hire third-party individuals and organizations to help us make the ClientSuccess Services better. These third parties include our web host provider, other SaaS providers, such as an email hosting service, payment processors, or outside contractors we hire to perform marketing, maintenance, or assist us in securing our website. We may also hire third parties to operate, maintain, repair, or otherwise improve or preserve our website or its underlying files or systems.
ClientSuccess may disclose Personal Information and Potential PII only to those of its employees and third-party organizations that (1) need to know such information in order to process it on ClientSuccess’s behalf or to provide services as described above and (2) have agreed not to disclose it to any other parties without ClientSuccess’s consent. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using the Site and/or the Service, you consent to the transfer of information to such individuals and organizations in order to accomplish these purposes.
Before using or sharing your information with non-agent third parties in ways not discussed here or previously authorized by you, we will provide you Notice and an opportunity to control the further use or disclosure of your personal information.
ClientSuccess has potential liability in cases of onward transfer to third parties of data of EU and Swiss individuals received pursuant to the Privacy Shield Principles.
If you are a registered user of the Service and have supplied your email address, ClientSuccess may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with ClientSuccess and our products. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. ClientSuccess takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of Personal Information and Potential PII.

Protection of Information
ClientSuccess is committed to ensuring the security of your personal information. We utilize appropriate precautions to protect the confidentiality and security of the personal information within the Service by employing technical, physical, and organizational safeguards and carefully-developed security procedures.

These technologies, procedures, and other measures are used in an effort to ensure that your data is safe, secure, and only available to you and to those you authorized to access your data. However, no internet, e-mail, or other electronic transmission is ever fully secure or error-free, so you should take care in deciding what information you send to us in this way.
