To send you service, technical and other administrative emails relating to our Services, messages and other types of communications, like authentication and resetting your password.

As required by Tendable to conduct our business and pursue our legitimate interests, in particular:

To ensure our Services are working as intended, such as tracking outages or troubleshooting issues that you report to us.
To enhance the safety and security of our Services - using device, location, profile, usage and other information to detect any unusual patterns and protect security.

on other occasions where we ask you for consent, we will use the data for the purpose which we explain at that time.

For purposes which are required by law:

In response to requests by government or law enforcement authorities conducting an investigation.

Disclosing your details to third parties

We share information with our service providers. This includes for example cloud storage providers, vendors providing technical support, marketing providers, accountants and other professional services providers.

We may disclose your personal information to any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries. Personal data may also be shared with our investors.

Where we are under a duty to disclose your personal information in order to comply with any legal obligation (for example to government bodies and law enforcement agencies).

Our Services, from time to time, contain links to and from websites of our partner networks and affiliates. Please note that these websites and any services that may be accessible through them have their own privacy policies and are not covered under this policy.

Certain Services may also include features which allow you to share content you have posted with other users. It is your responsibility to ensure when using these features that you do not submit any personal data or content that you do not want to be seen, collected or used by other users.

Tendable does not sell data to third parties.

Our use of internet cookies

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your device with your consent.

We use cookies to distinguish you from other users, for analytics and for advertising activities. This helps us provide you with a good experience and also allows us to improve the Services.

For more information on Tendable's cookie usage, please see our Cookie Policy.

How we keep your personal information secure and how long we maintain it

Information that we collect will be retained for as long as needed to fulfil the purposes outlined in the sections above, in line with our legitimate interest or for a period specifically required by applicable regulations or laws, such as retaining the information for regulatory reporting purposes.

For example:

We will keep the account information you provide to us (such as details about your organisation, your professional role) for as long as you use our Services.
We will keep a record of the fact that you have asked us not to send you direct marketing indefinitely, so that we can respect your request in future.
We will keep usage information and analytics data for a reasonable length of time that allows us to provide our services and to understand how people use our services.

We will limit the use of personal identifiable data to the intended purpose of the business as stipulated in the terms and conditions of contract. We will securely delete personal identifiable data and any sensitive data / information six months after the end of the contract (and return all data if stipulated in the contract).

Sometimes business and legal requirements oblige us to retain certain information, for specific purposes, for an extended period of time. Reasons we might retain some data for longer periods of time include security, fraud prevention, financial record-keeping, complying with legal or regulatory requirements, and ensuring the continuity of our services.

International Transfer

In connection with the purposes identified above, your personal data may be transferred outside the UK and the European Economic Area (“EEA”). Where information is transferred outside the UK or EEA that is not subject to an adequacy decision by the EU Commission, data is adequately protected by approved standard contractual clauses, an appropriate Privacy Shield certification or a vendor's Processor Binding Corporate Rules. A copy of the relevant mechanism can be provided for your review by contacting us at the details below.

Personal data collected outside of the UK and the EEA may also be transferred in accordance with applicable laws to the UK, the EEA, and other countries in connection with the purposes identified above, including to Tendable Ltd which is based in the UK.

Where your information is no longer required, we will ensure it is disposed of in a secure manner.

Your rights

Under data protection law, you have a number of rights concerning the data we hold about you:

The right of access: You have the right to obtain access to the information we hold on you. This will enable you, for example, to check that we are using your information in accordance with data protection law.
The right to rectification: You are entitled to have your information corrected if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
The right to be forgotten: This enables you to request the deletion of certain information that we hold about you.
The right to restrict processing: You have rights to 'block' or 'suppress' further use of your information. When processing is restricted, we can still store your information, but will not use it further.
The right to data portability: You have the right to obtain your personal information in an accessible and transferrable format so that you can re-use it for your own purposes across different service providers. There are exceptions to this right.
The right to withdraw consent: If you have given your consent to anything we do with your information (i.e. we rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your information), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
The right to object to processing: You have the right to object to certain types of processing, including processing for direct marketing and profiling and for processing which Tendable base on legitimate Interest.

These rights may be limited, for example if fulfilling your request would reveal personal data about another person, or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to keep or have compelling legitimate interests in keeping. We will inform you of relevant exemptions we rely upon when responding to any request you make.

To exercise any of these rights - or get a copy of our legitimate interest balancing tests - you can get in touch with us using the details set out below. If you have unresolved concerns, you have the right to complain to a data protection authority where you live, work or where you believe a breach may have occurred.
