Cybersyn Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) describes the practices of Cybersyn, Inc. (“Cybersyn,” “we,” or “us”) for collecting, using, maintaining, disclosing, and otherwise processing (collectively, “Processing”) the information that we collect from you, as well as how we protect and secure your data. Please read this Policy carefully to understand our Processing of your information and how we will treat it.

We are a cloud-based data technology platform that makes data accessible and delivers data via the Snowflake Marketplace. We respect your privacy and we are committed to protecting your information.

This Policy generally applies to the information we Process. However, this Policy is subordinate to any specific terms and conditions set forth in any terms of use, end user license agreements, or other agreements you may have with us relating to a particular product, service, or data. This Policy does not reflect any policy or representation about any product or data we sell or distribute, only about information we Process from data we collect about you. 

Further, this Policy applies only to information we collect and Process. It does not apply to information collected, Processed, and shared with us by our customers, who may have their own privacy policies that apply to you. In other words, this Policy does not apply to information we Process on behalf of others. Under such circumstances, we serve merely as the processor of the information and will Process the data only as specifically authorized by our customer, the data controller. If you believe we are Processing your Personal Information on behalf of another, please contact the data controller directly to ask questions or exercise your rights.

1. How does Cybersyn collect information, and what information does it collect?

Cybersyn collects information from visitors to our website, cybersyn.com. We also collect information from the users of our products and services, including the Snowflake Data Marketplace. We will refer to all of Cybersyn’s products and services in this Policy as our “Products.” The categories and types of information we collect depend upon the purpose for which we collect them. For the purposes of our Policy, we will distinguish between:

  • “Personal Information,” which is information that can be used to identify, locate, or contact you, a natural person, as well as any other information about you that we may connect with Personal Information; and
  • Non-Personal Information,” which is information that does not identify you as a natural person and is not identifiable to you as a natural person, including, without limitation, information that we anonymize or aggregate in such a way that no natural person can be identified.

We collect certain information when you provide it to us:

  • To access and use a Product, you may be required to register for an account. When you register for an account, you will provide certain Personal Information, including your first and last name, email address, company name, telephone number, physical address, and username.
  • To request further details of our Products, such as when you use the contact us feature of our website, you will provide us with certain Personal Information including your first and last name, role (your job title), industry, company name, email address, and you also provide us with the details of your request.

We also collect certain information automatically. As you navigate through and interact with our website or Products, we may use “cookies,” which are small files placed on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device, and “web beacons,” which are small files located on pages of the website, each of which collect certain information about your equipment and web browser (such as browser type, browser language, and IP address), as well as browsing actions and browsing patterns (such as traffic data, location data and logs, page views, length of visit and website navigation paths). Information collected by the cookies and web beacons we use may consist of both Personal Information and, in the case of statistical, aggregated and anonymized information, Non-Personal Information. For more information on the cookies and web beacons we use, please see the section below.

2. Why does Cybersyn collect my Personal Information?

We collect and otherwise Process Personal Information for a variety of purposes, depending on the information being Processed. In particular, we Process Personal Information as necessary to perform under our contractual obligations to you, providing you with the Products you have purchased or accessed and Processing information as may be necessary to support you in their use. We also Process Personal Information given our legitimate interest in improving our products and services, enhancing customer experience, and identifying and marketing certain Products to you. Finally, we may Process Personal Information as necessary to comply with a legal obligation, or for other purposes we disclose when obtaining your consent.

In other words:

  • We Process the Personal Information you provide to us when you request further details of our Products from us to respond to your requests and your feedback, and to otherwise contact you about that request. Our legal basis for processing this Personal Information is our legitimate interest in fulfilling your request, or, as applicable, to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you.
  • We Process the Personal Information you provide when you access and use a Product to set up and maintain your customer account, allow you to interact with us online, and allow us to operate, maintain, and otherwise provide that Product to you. We also use your Personal Information provided in this way for our non-marketing or administrative purposes, such as notifying you of major changes to the website or the Product, or otherwise to provide you with customer service by resolving disputes, addressing complaints, and troubleshooting any technical problems encountered. Our legal basis for processing this Personal Information is the performance of the contract to which you are a party.
  • We also Process the Personal Information you provide when you request further details of our products, request an academic license, or access and use a product for the purpose of ensuring the security and integrity of our website and Products, including through the use of back-ups of our databases. Our legal basis for Processing this Personal Information is our legitimate interest in the proper administration and security of our website and Products.
  • We also Process the Personal Information you provide when you request further details of our products or access and use a product for the purpose of measuring and understanding the effectiveness of our Products and improving our Products. Our legal basis for Processing this Personal Information is our legitimate interest in maintaining and improving our Products to provide you with the best possible user experience.
  • We may use Personal Information you provide when you request further details of our Products, access or use the Products, or subscribe to a newsletter to communicate offers for products and services, including offers based on your interests and usage of our Products, and engage in other marketing activities that may be of interest to you. Our legal basis for processing this information is your consent to this Processing, which you may withdraw at any time by opting out of marketing communications. However, please note that we may have to retain certain Personal Information for the purposes we have described above, namely, to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you or to perform under a contract to which you are a party, as the case may be, as well as for our legitimate interests in maintain and improving our Products and providing you with the best possible user experience.
  • With respect to Personal Information collected through cookies or web beacons, we use this information for the purpose of analyzing the use of our websites and Products to improve their quality and design. Again, our legal basis for this Processing is providing you with the best possible user experience. We also use certain cookies for marketing purposes, subject to your right to opt out. Our legal basis for this Processing is our legitimate interest in marketing our Products. For more information on our cookies and web beacons practices, please see below.
  • Finally, may Process your Personal Information as otherwise necessary to (a) enforce our agreements and policies, (b) protect or defend our legal rights, (c) protect your vital interests or the vital interests of another natural person, or (d) comply with a legal obligation.

With respect to Non-Personal Information, because this information does not identify you or any other natural person, we may Process it for any purpose. We expressly reserve the right to use Non-Personal Information to improve or develop our Products, create and publish reports, conduct statistical analyses, monitor industry trends, and otherwise engage in activities that do not result in the disclosure of identifiable information.

To be clear, we are committed to respecting your privacy and we will only Process your Personal Information for the purposes described here, and then only in the context of your relationship with us.

3. Will Cybersyn share my Personal Information with third parties?

Under certain circumstances we may share your Personal Information. These are as follows:

  • To provide you with certain Products, we may need to share your Personal Information with our third-party service providers who may Process certain Personal Information on our behalf. We ensure, through our due diligence and contractual restrictions, that any specific third party with whom we share your Personal Information will only have access to that Personal Information necessary to perform specific tasks on our behalf, will only use the Personal Information for this purpose, and will protect your Personal information at least to the same extent that we do.
  • We may be forced to share your Personal Information to comply with our legal obligations, such as to respond to a lawful subpoena request or other legal process. In the event we are asked to disclose your Personal Information, we will use reasonable efforts to both validate the request and provide you with prior notification of the disclosure, unless otherwise prohibited by law.
  • We may also have to disclose your Personal Information if necessary to (a) enforce our agreements and policies, including billing and collection matters, or (b) otherwise protect or defend our legal rights, including in the security and integrity of our website and Products.
  • We may disclose your Personal Information if needed to affect the sale or transfer of our assets, such as if we are involved in a merger or business transfer, or, in the unlikely event of bankruptcy.

Again, we are committed to respecting your privacy and will only share your Personal Information for the purposes described here. If we need to share your Personal Information for a purpose not identified here, we will obtain your consent to do so and disclose this purpose at the time of obtaining your consent. We do not and have not sold, rented, or leased your Personal Information to others, for direct marketing purposes or otherwise.

4. How long will Cybersyn keep my Personal information?

We keep different kinds of Personal Information for different lengths of time, depending on the purpose for which it was Processed and your specific situation. In any event, we will retain your Personal Information as long as necessary to accomplish the relevant purpose, but no longer.

5. How does Cybersyn keep my Personal Information secure?

Taking into account the nature of the information gathered, we use commercially reasonable, industry standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to secure your Personal Information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure. For example, all information you provide to us is encrypted and stored on our secured servers behind firewalls.

That said, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and other information used by you to access the website, Snowflake Marketplace, or use our Products.

6. What are my choices with respect to my information?
