11. Data Controller/Processor

We are the Controller of our Account Data, Usage Data pertaining to our Users and Prospects, and certain types of Personal Data concerning our Customers, and certain types of User Data; we are the Processor of User Data which we process on behalf of our Customer.

Certain data protection laws and regulations, such as the GDPR or the CCPA typically distinguish between two main roles for parties processing personal data: the “data controller” (or under the CCPA, “business”), who determines the purposes and means of processing; and the “data processor” (or under the CCPA, “service provider”), who processes the data on behalf of the data controller (or business). Below we explain how these roles apply to our Services, to the extent that such laws and regulations apply.

Eloops is the “Data Controller” of Account Data, Usage Data relating to Users and Prospects, as well as User Data consisting of profile and contact details, as well as usage, preferences, engagement and analytics data. With respect to such data, we assume the responsibilities of Data Controller (solely to the extent applicable under law), as set forth in this Privacy Policy. In such instances, our Service Providers processing such data will assume the role of “Data Processor”.

If any of our Users upload or submit User Data or other content to our Services which includes Personal Data (e.g., by submitting additional personal data pertaining to the Customer’s employees), such data will only be processed by Eloops on behalf of our Customer, which is the owner of the respective account, along with all other User Data processed on such Customer’s behalf.

In such instances, our Customer shall be deemed the “Data Controller” of such data, and Eloops will process such data on the Customer’s behalf, as its “Data Processor”, in accordance with its reasonable instructions, subject to our Terms, our Data Processing Addendum with such Customer (to the extent applicable) and other commercial agreements. Eloops’ Service Providers shall act as designated Sub-Processors in these instances. The Customer will be responsible for meeting any legal requirements applicable to Data Controllers (such as establishing a legal basis for processing and responding to Data Subject Rights requests concerning the data they control).

If you would like to make any requests or queries regarding Personal Data we process as Data Processors, e.g., on your organization’s (our Customer’s) behalf, please contact your organizational admin directly. For example, if you are a User who wishes to access, correct, or delete data processed by Eloops on behalf of a Customer, please direct your request to the relevant Customer (who is the “Data Controller” of such data).

12. Additional Notices

Updates and Amendments: We may update and amend this Privacy Policy from time to time by posting an amended version on our Services. The amended version will be effective as of the date it is so published. We will provide a 10-day prior notice if we believe any substantial changes are involved via any of the communication means available to us or via the Services. After such notice period, all amendments shall be deemed accepted by you.

Requirements under US State Privacy Laws: This policy describes the categories of personal ‎information we may collect and the sources of such information (in Section 1 above), and our ‎retention (Section 3) and deletion practices (Section 9). We also included information about how we ‎may process your information (in Sections 2 through 7), which includes for “business purposes” ‎under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended/Virginia Consumer Data Protection ‎Act (VCDPA)/Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) and similar states’ laws, as applicable. We do not sell or ‎‎“share” your personal information for the intents and purposes of the CCPA or CPRA, nor disclose ‎personal information that we “control” to any third party for their direct marketing purposes. We may ‎disclose personal data to third parties or allow them to collect personal data from our Services as ‎described in Section ‎5 above, if those third parties are our Customers (with respect to Customer Data ‎processed on their behalf), or our authorized Service Providers or business partners who have agreed ‎to our contractual limitations as to their retention, use, and disclosure of such personal data, or if you ‎integrate the services of third parties with our Services, or direct us to disclose your personal data to ‎third parties, or as otherwise described in Section 5 above. You may also designate, in writing or ‎through a power of attorney, to request to exercise your privacy rights on your behalf. The authorized ‎agent may submit a request to exercise these rights be emailing us.
