BuildPlane Corporation (“BuildPlane,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how BuildPlane collects, uses, and shares the personal information we collect from visitors and users of our online services, including the websites and mobile applications that post or link to this Privacy Policy (the “Website”). By accessing or using our Website, you signify that you have read, understood and agree to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service (https://buildplane.com/terms-of-service).
Please note that this Privacy Policy does not cover or apply to our processing of information about our job applicants, employees or our contractors (collectively, our “personnel”). We may also provide you with additional privacy policies or disclosures where the scope of the inquiry, request, or personal information we require falls outside the scope of this Privacy Policy. In that case, the additional privacy policy or disclosures will govern how we may process the information you provide at that time.
1. HOW WE COLLECT AND USE PERSONAL INFORMATION
When we use the term “personal information”, we mean any information that can be used to identify you, directly or indirectly, as an individual person.
We collect personal information from our Website visitors in order to provide you with a personalized, useful and efficient experience. The categories of information we collect may include the following:
2. HOW WE SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATION
We may share your personal information in the instances described below.
3. YOUR CHOICES
Email Communications. From time to time, we may send you emails regarding updates to our Website, products or services, notices about our organization, or information about products/services we offer (or promotional offers from third parties) that we think may be of interest to you. If you wish to unsubscribe from such emails, simply click the “unsubscribe link” provided at the bottom of the email communication. Note that you cannot unsubscribe from certain Services-related email communications (e.g., account verification, confirmations of transactions, technical or legal notices).

If you have any questions about modifying or updating any information in your account, please contact us at the email or postal address provided below.
4. HOW WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGY TO COLLECT INFORMATION
We, and our third-party partners, automatically collect certain types of usage information when you visit our Website, read our emails, or otherwise engage with us online. We typically collect this information through a variety of tracking technologies, including cookies, web beacons, embedded scripts, location-identifying technologies, file information, and similar technology (collectively, “tracking technologies”).
We, and our third-party partners, use tracking technologies to automatically collect usage and device information, such as:
We use the data collected through tracking technologies to: (a) remember information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you visit the Website; (b) provide custom, personalized content and information, including targeted content and advertising; (c) identify you across multiple devices; (d) provide and monitor the effectiveness of our Services; (e) monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors, traffic, usage, and demographic patterns on our Website; (f) diagnose or fix technology problems; and (g) otherwise to plan for and enhance our Services.
5. THIRD-PARTY TRACKING AND ONLINE ADVERTISING
We may share, or we may permit third-party online advertising networks, social media companies and other third-party services, to collect, information about your use of our Website over time so that they may play or display ads that may be relevant to your interests on our site as well as on other websites or apps, or on other devices you may use. Typically, though not always, the information we share is provided through cookies or similar tracking technologies, which recognize the device you are using and collect information, including hashed data, click stream information, browser type, time and date you visited the site, and other information. We or the online advertising networks use this information to make the advertisements you see online more relevant to your interests. We may also display targeted advertising to you through social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google, Ghost and others. These companies have interest-based advertising programs that allow us to direct advertisements to users who have shown interest in our Services or our clients’ services while those users are on the social media platform, or to groups of other users who share similar traits, such as likely commercial interests and demographics. These advertisements are governed by the privacy policies of those social media companies that provide them.
Google Analytics and Advertising. We may also utilize certain forms of display advertising and other advanced features through Google Analytics, such as Remarketing with Google Analytics, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting. These features enable us to use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick advertising cookie) or other third-party cookies together to inform, optimize, and display ads based on your past visits to our services. You may control your advertising preferences or opt-out of certain Google advertising products by visiting the Google Ads Preferences Manager, currently available at https://google.com/ads/preferences, or by vising NAI’s online resources at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies Opt-Out. If you would prefer not to accept cookies, most browsers will allow you to: (i) change your browser settings to notify you when you receive a cookie, which lets you choose whether or not to accept it; (ii) disable existing cookies; or (iii) set your browser to automatically reject cookies. Please note that doing so may negatively impact your experience using the Website, as some features and services on our Website may not work properly. Depending on your mobile device and operating system, you may not be able to delete or block all cookies. You may also set your e-mail options to prevent the automatic downloading of images that may contain technologies that would allow us to know whether you have accessed our e-mail and performed certain functions with it. You may also be able to limit interest-based advertising through the settings on your mobile device by selecting “limit ad tracking” (iOS) or “opt-out of interest based ads” (Android).
To learn more about interest-based advertising and how you may be able to opt-out of some of this advertising, you may wish to visit the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (DAA) resources and/or the Network Advertising Initiative’s (NAI) online resources, at www.aboutads.info/choices or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/; and you can opt out of receiving some interest-based advertisements on mobile apps by visiting http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices.
Opting-out through the NAI’s and DAA’s online resources will only opt-out a user from receiving interest-based ads on that specific browser or device, but the user may still receive interest-based ads on other devices he may use. You must perform the opt-out on each browser or device you use. For desktop, some of these opt-outs may not be effective unless your browser is set to accept cookies. If you delete cookies, change your browser settings, switch browsers or computers, or use another operating system, you will need to opt-out again.
6. DATA PROTECTION
BuildPlane cares about the security of your information and uses commercially reasonable physical, technical and organizational measures designed to preserve the integrity and security of all information we collect. However, no security system is impenetrable and we cannot guarantee the security of our systems 100%. In the event that any information under our control is compromised as a result of a breach of security, we will take reasonable steps to investigate the situation and where appropriate, notify those individuals whose information may have been compromised and take other steps, in accordance with any applicable laws and regulations.
We store data on servers in the United States or any other country in which BuildPlane or its affiliates, subsidiaries, agents or contractors maintain facilities. If you are located in the European Union or other regions with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from United States law, please note that your personal information may be transferred to a country and jurisdiction that does not have the same data protection laws as your jurisdiction.
7. LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES AND SERVICES
For your convenience, our Website may provide links to third-party websites or services that we do not own or operate. We are not responsible for the practices employed by any websites or services linked to or from the Website or Services, including the information or content contained within them. Your browsing and interaction on any other website or service are subject to the applicable third party’s rules and policies, not ours. If you are using a third-party website or service, you do so at your own risk. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any site or service before providing any personal information.
