Talespin may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, in its sole discretion. If we do so, we will post an updated Privacy Policy on the Site along with a change notice. Changes, modifications, additions, or deletions will be effective immediately upon their posting to the Site unless otherwise stated in the change notice. If we make material or significant changes, we may also send registered Customers a notice that this Privacy Policy has been changed. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy regularly for any changes. Your continued use of the Site and/or Services, and/or your continued provision of personal information to us after the posting of such notice, will be deemed an acceptance of any changes and subject to the terms of the then-current Privacy Policy.
We are located in the United States, and the personal information that we collect is stored on servers hosted by us or our authorized third-party service providers located in the United States. This means that your personal information will be collected, processed, and stored in the United States, which may have data protection laws that are different from (and sometimes less protective than) the laws of your country or region, such as the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).
By sending us personal information, you agree and consent to the processing of your personal information in the United States, which may not offer an equivalent level of protection to that required in other countries (particularly the European Union), and to the processing of that information by us on servers located in the United States, as described in this Privacy Policy.
We have implemented safeguards designed to ensure that the personal information we process remains protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy, including when processed internationally or by our third-party service providers and partners. The safeguards we may take in our discretion include, for instance, entering into specific agreements in connection with any onward transfers of personal information. We may implement other mechanisms and take similar appropriate safeguards with our third-party service providers and partners. Further details can be provided upon request.
We collect information directly from you when you provide it to us, such as when visit our Site and request a demo or sign up for our Services.

Talespin may preserve or disclose your personal information in limited circumstances (other than as set forth in this Privacy Policy), including: (i) with your consent; (ii) when we have a good faith belief it is required by law, such as pursuant to a valid subpoena, warrant, or other judicial or administrative order (as further explained below); (iii) to protect the safety of any person; (iv) to protect the safety or security of the Site, Customer Platforms and/or Services or to prevent spam, abuse, or other malicious activity of actors with respect to the Site, Customer Platforms and/or Services; or (v) to protect our rights or property or the rights or property of those who use the Site, Customer Platforms and/or Services.

Our policy is to respond to requests that are properly issued by law enforcement within the United States or via mutual legal assistance mechanism (such as a treaty), and to object to requests that we do not believe were issued properly. However, if we receive information that provides us with a good faith belief that there is an exigent emergency involving the danger of death or serious physical injury to a person, we may provide information to law enforcement trying to prevent or mitigate the danger (if we have it), which will be determined on a case-by-case basis.

Direct Marketing
We market our company and Services in a variety of ways. We may gather information from or about you in the following different roles:

In some cases, you provide personal information directly to Talespin as part of a marketing event that Talespin hosts or co-hosts, such as when you attend an event, through email or when you schedule a demo. Occasionally, and in some cases only with your consent, we may send you future communications. We may also acquire personal information about you when you visit our Site or Social Media Accounts (see below). Talespin also engages third parties who provide us with contact information for Leads. When acquiring information from third parties, Talespin endeavors to obtain contractual commitments from the third parties that the information was acquired lawfully and with the appropriate level of consent.
Our communications to you for marketing purposes will contain instructions on how you can opt-out from receiving future communications, and if you consent to our use of your personal information for marketing purposes, you may always withdraw your consent. You may also directly contact Talespin about its marketing activities at support@talespin.com.
Targeted Advertising
Talespin engages third-party advertising networks (“External Ad Partners”) to display advertising about our Services when you visit other websites within that advertising network. Like many other companies, we rely on retargeting, also known as remarketing, which is a type of marketing strategy that helps businesses “remind” visitors of their products and services after they leave their websites. For instance, through the use of cookies (and similar technologies) placed by External Ad Partners, Device Information, Usage Information and Location Information (as explained above) are collected and then used to identify visitors to the Site on other websites or social media platforms. With this information our External Ad Partners may serve relevant ads on consumers who previously visited the Site. To learn more about which third party advertising networks we use, what advertising cookies are and how they are used, click here.
Individuals in the EEA and the United Kingdom have additional rights, as explained here.
Talespin maintains an online presence on social media platforms (“Social Media Platforms”) such as Instagram, Twitter or Facebook, to provide information about our Services and communicate with users and/or visitors to those pages or accounts. When you interact or post to our account, we process your personal information. In some cases, the Social Media Platforms are service providers or processors. In other cases, such as with Facebook, we are jointly responsible for the processing, as explained in the section titled Talespin as a ‘Joint Controller’ with Facebook.
Talespin uses Oculus hardware and enterprise software (“Facebook Enterprise Products”) provided by Facebook Technologies, LLC (“Facebook”) in order to provide the Services. In connection with Customers’ and End Users’ use of Facebook Enterprise Products, Facebook will automatically collect the following data:
· Information related to device status and performance, such as battery life, OS version, controller pairing status, last time active, the rate at which a device displays images, or memory usage.

· Information about your interactions with the Facebook Enterprise Products, including information about your interactions with features, applications, or other experiences.
· Information about how you access the Facebook Enterprise Products, including the type of device used and IP address.
· Anonymized data collected when an app you are using crashes, such as which app was running, recent actions performed in the app, and information related to device health, settings and configurations. This anonymized data is used to identify and fix bugs and other technical issues and to improve the Enterprise Software, and may be provided to app developers to help them identify and fix bugs in their apps.
· Information collected in or through cookies, local storage, and similar technologies on our device management website (see https://www.workplace.com/work/legal/FB_Work_Cookies for more information).
Facebook uses and shares such data in accordance with the Oculus for Business Privacy Disclosure available here.
Talespin collects and has access to data about End Users for purposes of provisioning, managing and monitoring their use of Facebook Enterprise Products and providing support to Customers and End Users. Facebook is not responsible for Talespin’s collection, use, storage, and disclosure of data related to Customers’ and End Users’ use of Facebook Enterprise Products or software and experiences provided by Talespin, which are the sole responsibility of Talespin.
We use reasonably appropriate security measures designed to protect the security of personal information both online and offline. These measures vary based on the sensitivity of the information that we collect, process and store and the current state of technology. Please note, though, that no website or internet transmission is completely secure, so while we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss or a data breach will never occur.
Certain internet web browsers allow a “do not track” (DNT) setting that relies on a technology known as a DNT header, which sends a signal to websites visited by the individual about the individual’s browser DNT setting. At this time, we do not currently respond to DNT signals, whether that signal is received on a computer or on a mobile device. Learn more about DNT here.
How you make choices about cookies and other tracking technologies depends on the type of cookie or tracking technology being used. For details on how to manage your preferences for cookies and tracking technologies within your web browser, please see our Cookie Statement.
Some visitors in some locations may be required opt-in to non-essential cookies, as explained in the Cookie Statement.
If you are receiving promotional emails from us, you can choose to stop receiving those by following the unsubscribe/opt-out instructions in those emails. You can also opt-out by contacting us at support@talespin.com.
To request access to, or to make changes to, data that we have collected from you via the Customer Platforms, please email us at support@talespin.com.
We do not sell your personal information within the scope of, and according to the defined meaning of a “sale” under, NRS 603A.
Note: for purposes of this section, “personal information” has the same meaning as “personal data” as such term is defined in applicable data protection laws.
The categories of recipients of personal information with whom we may share your personal information are listed in Disclosure of Your Personal Information above.
Talespin as ‘Data Controller’
As a ‘data controller’, Talespin processes your personal information for a number of different purposes. Some are essential for us to provide the Services or to fulfill our legal obligations, some help us run the Services efficiently and effectively, and some enable us to provide you with more relevant and personalized offers and information. In all cases, with respect to individuals in the EEA, we must have a reason and a legal ground for processing your personal information. The most common legal grounds on which we rely are briefly explained below:
· Performance of a Contract: we may process your personal information in order to enter into, or perform a contract to which you are a party –for instance, when a Customer signs up for the Services.
· Legitimate Interests: we may process personal information where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests, but only to the extent that they are not outweighed by your own interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. When we rely on this legal basis, if required, we will carry out a legitimate interest assessment to ensure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative), and your rights under data protection laws.
· Consent: We rely on consent where it is required, such as when we are asking you to confirm your marketing preferences. When we rely on consent, you will be asked to confirm that you give your permission to Talespin to process your personal information. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time if you no longer want to be part of the Talespin processing activity where your consent was sought.
· Legal Obligation: Talespin may have legal obligations to retain and/or disclose your personal information, or may cooperate in a legal or governmental investigation. It is essential that Talespin complies with its legal, regulatory, and contractual requirements, so if you object to this processing, Talespin will not be able to provide its Services to you.
The following breakdown illustrates in more detail our processing activities and how the above legal bases for processing apply (in brackets):
· Provide the Site [Legal Basis: Performance of a Contract]
· Provide the Customer Platforms and our Services to Customers and End Users [Legal Basis: Performance of a Contract]

· Providing you information about Services that you may wish to purchase in the future including, in some cases, to send you direct marketing communications regarding other services that we may think are of interest to you [Legal Basis: Legitimate Interests]

Talespin as a ‘Joint Controller’ with Facebook
We have a presence on Facebook (including Instagram). With respect to our use of Facebook, we are jointly responsible with Facebook Ireland for the processing activities (“Joint Processing”) with respect to your personal information:
Facebook Ireland Ltd.,
4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbor
Dublin 2, Ireland
Information about the personal information that is collected from you by Facebook, as well as how and why it is processed by Facebook, can be found at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy.
Talespin and Facebook have entered into entered into an agreement in order to determine the respective responsibilities for compliance with our obligations in connection with the Joint Processing within the meaning of the GDPR. This joint controller agreement, which sets out the reciprocal obligations, is available here.
Talespin’s legal basis for processing your personal information via Facebook is our legitimate interest in promoting our Services.
PLEASE NOTE THAT FACEBOOK IRELAND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENABLING DATA SUBJECTS’ RIGHTS UNDER ARTICLES 15-20 OF THE GDPR WITH REGARD TO THE PERSONAL DATA STORED BY FACEBOOK IRELAND IN CONNECTION WITH THE JOINT PROCESSING, AS FURTHER DESCRIBED IN FACEBOOK’S PRIVACY POLICY. TO EXERCISE YOUR RIGHTS, PLEASE GO TO YOUR FACEBOOK SETTINGS OR CONTACT FACEBOOK AS SET FORTH IN ITS PRIVACY POLICY.
It cannot be excluded that some processing by Facebook Ireland Ltd. will also take place in the United States by Facebook Inc.
We use the following criteria to determine our retention periods: the amount, nature and sensitivity of your information, the reasons for which we collect and process your personal information, the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide you with access to our Services, and applicable legal requirements. We will retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to comply with applicable legal, tax, or accounting requirements), when we are unable to reasonably verify your identity, or as may otherwise be required under GDPR. Additionally, we cannot delete information when it is needed for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (also known as a “litigation hold”). In this case, the information must be retained as long as needed for exercising respective potential legal claims.
When we have no ongoing business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. If you have questions about, or need further information concerning, our data retention periods, please email support@talespin.com.
IF YOU ARE AN END USER, YOU MUST CONTACT THE CUSTOMER(S) (ACTING AS ‘DATA CONTROLLER’) ON BEHALF OF WHICH TALESPIN PROVIDES THE SERVICES AND COLLECTS PERSONAL INFORMATION, AS EXPLAINED HERE. IF WE RECEIVE REQUESTS FROM END USERS, WE WILL SEND THOSE REQUESTS TO THE RELEVANT CUSTOMER, WHO WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR RESPONDING TO AND ADDRESSING RIGHTS REQUESTS, WITH OUR COOPERATION.
If the GDPR (or its equivalent in the United Kingdom) applies to you because you are in the EEA or the United Kingdom, you have certain rights in relation to your personal information:
· The right to be informed – our obligation to inform you that we process your personal information (and that is what we are doing in this Privacy Notice)
· The right of access – your right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you (also known as a ‘data subject access request’)
· The right to rectification – your right to request that we correct personal information about you if it is incomplete or inaccurate (though we generally recommend first making any changes in your Account Settings)
· The right to erasure (also known as the ‘right to be forgotten’) – under certain circumstances, you may ask us to delete the personal information we have about you (unless there is an overriding legal reason we need to keep it)
· The right to restrict processing – your right, under certain circumstances, to ask us to suspend our processing of your personal information
· The right to data portability – your right to ask us for a copy of your personal information in a common format (for example, a .csv file)
· The right to object – your right to object to us processing your personal information (for example, if you object to us processing your data for direct marketing)
· Rights in relation to automated decision-making and profiling – our obligation to be transparent about any profiling we do, or any automated decision-making.
These rights are subject to certain rules around when you can exercise them. If are located in the EEA and wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us (see How to Contact Us about Privacy).
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights) unless your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request under those circumstances.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity. This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. Note that if we are unable to reasonably confirm your identity, we will not be able to honor certain requests.
We will respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally, it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated as required by law.
In addition, if you no longer wish to receive our marketing/promotional information, we remind you that you may withdraw your consent to direct marketing at any time directly from the unsubscribe link included in each electronic marketing message we send to you. If you do so, we will promptly update our databases, and will take all reasonable steps to meet your request at the earliest possible opportunity, but we may continue to contact you to the extent necessary for the purposes of providing our Services.
Finally, you have the right to make a complaint at any time to the supervisory authority for data protection issues in your country of residence. We would, however, appreciate the chance to address your concerns before you approach the supervisory authority, so please contact us directly first.
