2.  THE DATA WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU

Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (such as anonymous or deidentified data).

We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data about you which we have grouped together as follows:

We also collect, use, and share aggregated data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated data may be derived from personal data but is not considered personal data or under applicable law as this data does not reveal your identity. However, if we combine or connect aggregated data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy policy.

We do not collect any special categories of personal data about you (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, and genetic and biometric data), nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.

• using your information to deliver, or contact you regarding, products or services; and

We do not use personal data for the purpose of using automated decision making or profiling.

Promotional offers from us  

We may use your personal data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you.

You will receive such marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us, have engaged in a professional or business relationship with us, or purchased goods or services from us, and you have not opted out of receiving that marketing. You may opt out of marketing at any time via contacting us.

Third-party marketing

We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.

Sales of personal data

We do not engage in the sale of personal data and will not do so unless we allow you a means of opting out, and except in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of shares, business, or assets.

Opting out  

You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by contacting us at any time.

Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to us as a result of account management, product/service experiences, and other transactions.

Change of purpose  

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us.

5.  DISCLOSURES OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We may share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in section 4.

• external third parties as set out in the Glossary.
• third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer or merge parts of our business or our assets or that we acquire or merge with. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this policy.
• our affiliated entities and our service providers, consultants, and other contractors in order to support or enhance our products, services and business operations, and to make available and consummate transactions and relationships. Such parties' use and processing of personal data will be subject to security or confidentiality obligations consistent with this policy and applicable law, and pursuant to written contractual obligations consistent with this policy.
• as required to comply with applicable law or lawful requests or process, or to enforce our terms and agreements, and to protect the rights, safety, and property of Noodl, our agents, employees, customers, and others.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

6.  INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

Some of our external third parties are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA) so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA. Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

• subject to the points below, we will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
• where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
• where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield or other mechanism which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between Europe and the US.

Pleasecontact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by uswhen transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

7.  DATA SECURITY

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized 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 data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach when we are legally required to do so.

8.  DATA RETENTION

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or other requirements.

9.  YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

You have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. You have the right to:

a) request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

b) request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.

c) request erasure or deletion of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. However, please note that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

d) object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

e) request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:

• to establish the data’s accuracy.
• where our use of the data is unlawful, but you do not want us to erase it.
• where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
• you have objected to our use of your data, but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

f) request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

g) withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you or otherwise continue our relationship. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us.

No fee usually required  

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

What we may need from you  

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

Time limit to respond  

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within 45 days. Occasionally it could take us longer 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.

C. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

This part (C) serves as a privacy notice for California residents and applies solely to all visitors, users, and others who reside in the State of California. We adopt this policy to comply with the CCPA as of the effective date of this policy, and any terms defined in the CCPA have the same meaning when used in this notice. Note that provision of this CCPA notice is not an admission on our part that Noodl is a “business” within the meaning of the CCPA, and nothing in this policy may be construed as such an admission.

We collect information that identifies, relates to, describes, references, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular person (“personal information”) that falls within the following categories of personal information, and have done so within the last 12 months:
‍

Personal information does not include: (a) publicly available information from government records; (b) deidentified information or aggregate consumer information; (c) information excluded from the CCPA’s scope; and (d) personal information covered by certain sector-specific privacy laws.

We will not collect additional categories of personal information or use the personal information we collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes without providing you notice.

Sharing personal information

We may disclose any or all of the categories above of your personal information to a third party for a business purpose, as set forth in section 11 above (External Third Parties), and we have done so in the last 12 months. When we disclose personal information for a business purpose, we enter a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to both keep that personal information confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract. The CCPA prohibits third parties who purchase the personal information we hold from reselling it unless you have received explicit notice and an opportunity to opt-out of further sales.

We disclose your personal information for a business purpose to the following categories of third parties:

• delivery and fulfillment service providers (e.g. UPS)
• third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this Policy.
• any other third parties you have permitted us to disclose your personal information to
• as set forth in this Policy

Your rights and choices

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:

• the categories of personal information we collected about you.
• the categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you.
• our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information.
• the categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
• the specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
• if we sold or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing: (a) sales, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient purchased; and (b) disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.

Deletion request rights

California residents have the right under the CCPA to request that we delete any of their personal information that we have collected and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm a verifiable consumer request (see below), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) relevant personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny California residents’ deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

• complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with the requesting individual, or otherwise perform our contract with a requesting individual.
• detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
• debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
• exercise free speech, ensure the right of another to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
• enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations.
• comply with a legal obligation.
• make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Verifiable consumer request

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights under the CCPA described above, please submit to us a verifiable consumer request as set forth in section 2 above.

Only a California resident, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that a California resident has authorized to act on their behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to their personal information. A California resident may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of their minor child.

A verifiable consumer request for access or data portability can only be made twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify the California resident, about whom we collected personal information, or an authorized representative, and contain sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We cannot respond to your request or provide personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account on our website. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.We will endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Non-discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Except as permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

• deny you goods or services.
• charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
• provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
• suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

(end of policy).
