If you are a customer of or otherwise have a direct relationship with one of our clients and wish to exercise your rights to control and access your information, your rights may be exercised under this policy, but also, the client’s policies may apply to your information, because the client is the data controller with respect to that information.

  • When we contact you and you provide information to us, and you consent to us for using the information we obtained from you.
  • When your employer or another organization with which you have a contractual relationship is a client of ours.

For more information, see Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information.

We may use the information we have collected from you to enable us to display advertisements to our advertisers’ target audiences. Even though we do not disclose your personal information for these purposes without your consent, if you click on or otherwise interact with an advertisement, the advertiser may assume that you meet its target criteria.

Retention Times. We will retain information for as long as needed to provide FM’s services to our clients, fulfill our legal and contractual obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Contract terms might limit this time period.

Disclosure of Your Information

We may disclose without restriction aggregated information about our users (that is, information aggregated from our users that no longer identifies any individual, and so, is no longer “personal” information).

We may disclose personal information that we collect or you provide as described in this privacy policy:

  • To our subsidiaries and affiliates.
  • To contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business and who are bound by contractual obligations to keep personal information confidential and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them. For example, we are a salesforce.com partner.
  • To a buyer or other successor of FM in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of FM’s assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by FM about our Website users is among the assets transferred.
  • To third parties to market their products or services to you if you have consented to these disclosures. We contractually require these third parties to keep personal information confidential and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them. For more information, see Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information.
  • To fulfill the purpose for which you provided the information.
  • For any other purpose disclosed by us when you provide the information.
  • With your consent.We may also disclose your personal information:
  • To comply with any court order, law, or legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request.
  • To enforce or apply our agreements with you, including for billing and collection purposes.
  • If we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Funnel Metrics, LLC, our customers, or third parties. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

Onward Transfers. We do not sell personal information to any other third-party organization. We do not transfer rights to personal information to any party or use the personal information other than for the original purpose for which the personal information was obtained. Any transfer to a third party is solely intended for the processing of the information, and FM has secured agreements with any downstream data processors that it might engage, in order to protect your personal information.

Data Security. In the event of a data breach where your personal information is compromised, the data controller of your personal information may be required to notify you within 72 hours under the rules of certain jurisdictions.

We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers behind firewalls.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Website. Any time you transmit personal information, it is done at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.

Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:

  • Tracking Technologies and Advertising. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this site may then be inaccessible or not function properly.
    Disclosure of Your Information for Third-Party Advertising. If you do not want us to share your personal information with unaffiliated or non-agent third parties for promotional purposes, you can opt out by checking the relevant box located on the form on which we collect your data. You can also always opt out by sending us an email stating your request to Support@Funnelmetrics.com.
  • Promotional Offers from FM. If you do not wish to have your contact information used by FM to promote our own or third parties’ products or services, you can opt out by checking the relevant box located on the form on which we collect your data or at any other time by sending us an email stating your request to Support@Funnelmetrics.com. If we have sent you a promotional email, you may send us a return email asking to be omitted from future email distributions.
  • Targeted Advertising. If you do not want us to use information that we collect or that you provide to us to deliver advertisements according to our advertisers’ target-audience preferences, you can opt out by checking the relevant box located on the form on which we collect your data or at any other time by sending us an email stating your request to Support@Funnelmetrics.com. We do not control third parties’ collection or use of your information to serve interest-based advertising. However these third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way.
    Accessing and Controlling Your Information

Difference Between Data Controllers and Data Processors. Your personal information may enter our processing scope in multiple ways. We are either a data controller or a data processor under applicable regulations; that determination is made according to the way in which your personal information is obtained, who has control over that information, and who has the responsibility for protecting and administering your rights.

As mentioned above, it is likely that information that we process in connection with providing FM services was obtained by or behalf of one of our clients under a contract for providing our services to the client. In that case, it is the client that likely is the data controller, and we are the data processor.

When you interact with us directly, such as via our marketing and sales development outreach as a Website visitor, we may be the primary data controller. In these cases, we are responsible for obtaining your consent and providing means for exercising your rights regarding your personal information.

Your Rights

You have rights to protect your personal information, including:

Instead of automatic consent to collection, you must opt in to have an organization (the “data controller”) gain the right to collect your personal information.

You can access your personal information that has been collected.

You can request correction, updates, deletion, or erasure of your personal information. We note that deleting your personal information will most likely result in deleting any user account you have with us.

You can request data on how your personal information was used, the purpose of the processing, a listing of categories of personal information processed, a listing of any third party recipients of your personal information both backwards and forwards, a listing of transfers of your personal information into and out of certain jurisdictions, and a listing of any third party sources of your personal information.

You can request information on when your personal information was obtained, how long your personal information would be stored, or if that is unknown, how the length of the storage period would be determined.

You can request that your personal information be rectified in certain circumstances, erased if certain grounds are met, restricted in processing, and objected to in processing for certain purposes like direct marketing.

You can request that your personal information be exported and provided to you in complete form.

You can object to processing of your personal information based on legitimate interests, ask us to restrict processing of your personal information, or request portability of your personal information.

You can withdraw your consent to the collection and use of your personal information.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at Support@funnelmetrics.com, or by mail to Funnel Metrics, LLC, 101 North Addison Avenue, Suite 207, Elmhurst, IL 60126, Attention: Data Privacy. We will respond to your request to change, correct, or delete your information within 30 days and notify you of the action we have taken. We reserve the right to confirm your identity before providing access to information.

Withdrawing Consent. If you had previously provided us with your consent to collect your personal information, you may choose to withdraw that consent. Please send an email request to Support@Funnelmetrics.com and we will attempt to implement the request, and provide a confirmation of your consent withdrawal via a reply email to your email address. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal. Withdrawal also won’t affect processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

If Your Consent and Personal Information Was Provided to a Third Party.With respect to personal information as to which we aren’t the “data controller,” we might not be able to directly act in response to your withdrawal of consent, or your requests for information listed above under “Your Rights.” For example, if the personal information in question was provided by you to your employer (or another party having a relationship with you), who had your consent to collect and use and send us the personal information, then the employer is the “data controller.” As we are not the “data controller,” then typically we won’t be able to change that consent, and won’t be able to directly provide personal information to you in response to your requests under the “Your Rights” categories above. In these cases, we recommend that you send your request directly to your employer. If you send the request to us at Support@Funnelmetrics.com, we will forward the request to your employer.

Filing a Complaint. In the event you are not satisfied with our resolution of your requests, you have the right to file a complaint with a supervisory data protection authority for the jurisdiction you are in, and to seek appropriate remediation.

If we make material changes to how we treat our users’ personal information, we will notify you through a notice on the Website home page.
