A. Information We Collect


The Personal Information that we may collect broadly falls into the following categories:

(i) Information you provide to us: In the course of engaging with our Services, you may provide Personal Information about yourself, other Users you invite to your account, or your social media accounts. Personal Information is often, but not exclusively, provided to us when you sign up for and use the Services, consult with our User support team, send us an email, integrate the Services with another website or service (for example, when you choose to connect your Instagram account(s) with Measure Studio), or communicate with us in any other way.

We will let you know prior to collection whether the provision of Personal Information we are collecting is compulsory or if it may be provided on a voluntary basis, as well as the consequences, if any, of not providing such information. By giving us this information, you agree to this information being collected, used, and disclosed as described in our Terms of Use and in this privacy policy.
 

This information may include:

Registration information: You need a Measure Studio account to use the Services as a User. When you register for an account, you will be asked to provide certain basic information, such as your name, email address, password, and phone number (for example, if you are using two-factor authentication).

Billing and communications information: If you purchase our Services, you may also need to provide us with payment and billing information, such as your bank information, credit card details, and billing address. We will also maintain a record of your billing transactions and purchases, and any communications and responses.

We use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect some of this information. Our use of cookies and other tracking technologies is discussed more below.


This information may include:

Device information: We collect information about the device and applications you use to access the Services, such as your IP address, your operating system, your browser ID, and other information about your system and connection.

Log data: Our web servers keep log files that record data each time a device accesses those servers and those log files contain data about the nature of each access, including originating IP addresses. We may also access metadata and other information associated with files that you upload into our Services.

Product usage data: We collect usage data about you whenever you interact with our Services, which may include the dates and times you access the Services and your browsing activities (such as what portions of the Services are used). We also collect information regarding the performance of the Services, including metrics related to the deliverability of emails alerts. This information allows us to improve the content and operation of the Services, and facilitate research and analysis of the Services.

We are only able to collect such data with your explicit authorization for each social media account. You are able to revoke our authorization to collect this data at any time in Measure Studio or in your social media account settings.

3. General Information

 

A. How We Share Information
We may share and disclose your Personal Information to the following types of third parties for the purposes described in this privacy policy (for purposes of this section, "you" and "your" refer to Users unless otherwise indicated):

(i) Our service providers: Sometimes, we share your information with our third-party service providers, who help us provide and support our Services and other business-related functions.
 

For example, to analyze data, to host data, engaging technical support for our Services, processing payments, and delivering content.
These third-party service providers enter into a contract that requires them to use your Personal Information only for the provision of services to us and in a manner that is consistent with this privacy policy.

(ii) Any competent law enforcement body, regulatory body, government agency, court or other third party where we believe disclosure is necessary (a) as a matter of applicable law or regulation, (b) to exercise, establish, or defend our legal rights, or (c) to protect your vital interests or those of any other person.

(iv) A company providing you with a free Measure Studio license. We provide a Bulk License subscription, through which a single user or company can buy multiple Measure Studio licenses and provide a dedicated Measure Studio account free of charge to others. This option is designed to help companies that work with multiple clients on social media (for example, talent managers, social media agencies, etc.) serve their clients. If you use a Measure Studio account provided to you by another user or company via a bulk license, that user or company will have access to and can download any social media data and personal information that you have provided to Measure Studio.
 

(v) Any other person with your consent.

B. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information (EEA Persons Only)
If you are from the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Information described above will depend on the Personal Information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we will normally collect and use Personal Information from you where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data-protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. Typically, our legitimate interests include improving, maintaining, providing, and enhancing our technology and products; ensuring the security of the Services and our Websites; and for our marketing activities.

If you are a User, we may need the Personal Information to perform a contract with you. In some limited cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect Personal Information from you.

If we ask you to provide Personal Information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contact with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your Personal Information is mandatory or not, as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your Personal Information.

Where required by law, we will collect Personal Information only where we have your consent to do so.

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your Personal Information, please contact us using the contact details provided in the "Questions and Concerns" section below.

C. Your Choices and Opt-Outs
Users who have opted in to our marketing emails can opt out of receiving marketing emails from us at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of our marketing messages.

Also, all opt-out requests can be made by emailing us using the contact details provided in the "Questions and Concerns" section below.
