1.1 About the Privacy Policy. This Conversion Wise privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) governs the processing of personal data collected from individual users (“you” and “your”) through the website https://conversionwise.com, the related software and services (collectively, “ConversionWise”).

If you become aware that such a person has provided us with his or her personal data and you are a parent or a legal guardian of that person, please contact us immediately and we will remove child’s personal data from our systems.

The amended version of the Privacy Policy will be posted on this page and, if we have your email address, we will send you a notice about all the changes implemented by us. We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy to stay informed. For significant material changes in the Privacy Policy or, where required by the applicable law, we may seek your consent.

2. WHAT DATA DO WE COLLECT?

Here we explain in detail what personal data we collect from you, for what purposes we use it,  what technical data is collected automatically when you use ConversionWise, and how we communicate with you. 

2.1 Sources of personal data. We obtain your personal data from the following categories of sources:

  • Directly from you. For example, if you sign up or contact us;
  • Directly or indirectly through your activity on ConversionWise. When you use ConversionWise, we automatically collect technical information about your use of ConversionWise; and
  • From third parties. We may receive information about you from third parties to whom you have previously provided your personal data, if those third parties have a legal basis for disclosing your personal data to us (for example, for payment processing purposes).

2.2 Collection of personal data. We comply with data minimisation principles. This means that we collect only a minimal amount of personal data that is necessary for your use of ConversionWise. We use your personal data for limited, specified and legitimate purposes explicitly mentioned in this Privacy Policy. For example, we use it only for the purposes of providing you with access to ConversionWise, processing your orders, maintaining and improving ConversionWise, replying to your enquiries, and pursuing our legitimate interests. We do not repurpose your personal data (i.e., we do not use it for any purposes that are different from the purposes for which your personal data was provided). Below, you can find an overview of the types of personal data that we collect, the purposes for which we use it, and the legal bases on which we rely when processing it. 

  • Your Account. When you register your user account, we collect your name, email address, company, and URL. We use the said information to register and maintain your user account, enable your access to ConversionWise, provide you with the requested services, contact you, if necessary, and maintain our business records. The legal bases on which we rely are ‘performing a contract with you’ and ’pursuing our legitimate interests’ (i.e., operate, analyse, grow, and administer ConversionWise). We will store this data until you delete your account.  
  • Payments. When you make a payment for our products and services, our third-party payment processor Stripe collects your personal data, such as name, address, and payment details (e.g., credit card details). We do not have access to your full payment data; only a part of your personal data is made available to us by Stripe (e.g., your location, 4 digits of your payment card, browse, email address, and name). Your payment data is used to process payments and maintain our accountancy records. The legal bases on which we rely are ‘performing our contractual obligations’ and ‘pursuing our legitimate interests’ (i.e., administer our business). We store such data for the time period prescribed by law.
  • Enquiries. When you contact us by email, we collect your first name, last name, email address, and any information that you decide to include in your message. We use such data to respond to your enquiries and provide you with the requested information. The legal bases on which we rely are ‘pursuing our legitimate interests’ (i.e., grow and promote ConversionWise) and ‘your consent’ (for optional personal data). We will store this data until you stop communicating with us.
  • Reviews. When you submit a review, we collect your name, URL, company name, conversion rate increase, and any other information that you decide to provide us with in your review. We use such data to feature your reviews, improve and promote ConversionWise. The legal bases on which we rely are ‘pursuing our legitimate interests’ (i.e., grow and promote ConversionWise) and ‘your consent’ (for optional personal data). We will store this data until you ask us to remove your review. 
  • Location and cookies. When you browse ConversionWise, we or our third-party analytics service provider (as explained in below) collect your approximate location and cookie-related data. We use such information to analyse the technical aspects of your use of ConversionWise, prevent fraud and abuse, and ensure the security of ConversionWise. For more information on our use of cookies, please refer to our Cookie Policy. The legal basis on which we rely are ‘pursuing our legitimate interests’ (i.e., analyse our content and protect ConversionWise) and ‘your consent’. We will store this data as long as analytics records are necessary for our activities or you withdraw your consent. 

2.3 Sensitive data. We do not collect or use any special categories of personal data (“sensitive data”) from you, unless you decide, at your own discretion, to provide such data to us. Sensitive data refers to your health, religious and political beliefs, racial origins, membership of a professional or trade association, or sexual orientation.    

2.4 Refusal to provide personal data. If you refuse to provide us with your personal data when we ask for it, we may not be able to perform the requested operation and you may not be able to use the full functionality of ConversionWise, receive the requested information, or get our response. Please contact us immediately if you think that any personal data that we collect is excessive or not necessary for the intended purpose.  

2.5 Collection of analytics data. When you browse ConversionWise, we may have access to certain technical analytics data collected from you by our analytics service providers Google and Hotjar. Such data includes the following information: 

  • Your activity on ConversionWise (time of visit, pages visited, time spent on each page, clicks, scroll depth, interaction with widgets); 
  • URL addresses from which you access ConversionWise;
  • Your browser type and version;
  • Your operating system;
  • Your device details;
  • Information about your orders; and
  • Your other online behaviour.

2.6 Purposes of analytics data. We use your analytics data to analyse what kind of users use ConversionWise, measure your engagement with ConversionWise, improve our content and services, develop new products and services, and investigate and prevent security issues and abuse. In most cases, such analytics data is non-personal and it does not allow us to identify you as a natural person. When we process your analytics data that is personal data (for example, your IP address), we rely on the ‘legitimate interest’ basis (i.e., to analyse and improve ConversionWise). 

2.7 Your feedback. If you contact us, we may keep records of any questions, complaints, recommendations, or compliments made by you and the response. Where possible, we will de-identify your personal data (i.e., we will remove all personal data that is not necessary for keeping such records). 

2.8 Aggregated and de-identified data. In case your non-personal data is combined with certain elements of your personal data in a way that allows us to identify you, we will handle such aggregated data as personal data. If your personal data is aggregated or de-identified in a way that it can no longer be associated with an identified or identifiable natural person, it will not be considered personal data and we may use it for any legitimate purpose.

2.9 Newsletters. If you opt-in for our newsletter or conclude a paid service contract with us, we will inform you about our new services, features of ConversionWise, and special offers. The legal basis on which we rely is ‘your consent’. You can opt-out from receiving our commercial communication at any time free of charge by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link included in our newsletters or by contacting us directly.

2.10 Transactional notices. If we have your email address and it is necessary to do so, we may send you important informational messages, such as technical or administrative emails. Please note that such messages are sent on an “if-needed” basis and they do not fall within the scope of commercial communication that may require your prior consent. You cannot opt-out from service-related notices. 

3. HOW LONG DO WE STORE YOUR DATA?

Here we explain for how long we keep your data in our systems and how we delete it.

3.1 Storage of personal data. We and our data processors store your personal data only for as long as such personal data is required for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or until you request us to update or delete your personal data, whichever comes first. For more details about the period for which each type of personal data is stored, please refer to section 2.2. After your personal data is no longer necessary for its purposes and there is no other legal basis for storing it, we will immediately securely delete your personal data from our systems. We do not store any personal data longer than strictly necessary.

3.2 Storage of non-personal data. We retain non-personal data pertaining to you for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. This may include storing non-personal data for the period of time needed for us to examine our activities, fulfil our contractual obligations, pursue our legitimate interests, conduct audits, comply with (and demonstrate compliance with) legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.

3.3 Storage as required by law. In seldom instances when we are obliged by law to store your personal data for certain period of time (e.g., for keeping accounting records), we will store your personal data for the time period stipulated by the applicable law and delete the personal data as soon as the required retention period expires.

In case it is necessary to make such a transfer, we will make sure that the country in which our data processor is located guarantees an adequate level of protection for your personal data or we conclude an agreement with it that ensures such protection (e.g., a data processing agreement based pre-approved standard contractual clauses).

4.4 Disclosure of non-personal data. Your non-personal data may be disclosed to third parties for any purpose as it does not identify you as a natural person.
