WHAT DATA WE COLLECT AND WHY

We do not collect any personal information unless we need it for a specific reason. Here we have listed the data we collect for your reference.

DATA YOU GIVE US:

Untapped Grounds is an invite-only community and to make sure we get the right people in, when you sign up for the Service, we ask for your first and last names, a proof that you belong to the IT industry (e.g. a link to your LinkedIn or GitHub profile, personal website, etc) and an e-mail address. We need this data to identify you and to operate and provide the Service for you, and also to send you important messages about your account and the Service. We also use your e-mail address to send you also other kinds of messages, like reports, surveys and offers that you are free to opt in or out. If you choose to, you can also give us additional information, e.g. a profile picture, to make your social experience better, but this is totally optional. We collect the content you provide to us when you use our Service.

DATA WE RECEIVE FROM OUR PARTNERS:

If you decide to log in to our Service with Facebook, we receive from Facebook your Facebook username, real name, e-mail address and profile picture. We use those for the same purposes as when you give them to us directly. We also get your list of friends from Facebook, which we use to connect you with your friends who already use our Service.We may also receive personal information from our advertising and analytics partners, so that we are able to provide you a better Service.

SOME DATA IS COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY WHEN YOU USE THE SERVICE:

Cookies and other similar technologies we use can collect some data automatically. You can find more details about our cookie usage at the end of this document in the “Cookies” -section.

UNTAPPED’S PARTNERS

Instead of doing absolutely everything on our own, we have partners that provide services and data processing for us. We have listed the type of partners we use: We use providers like Slack, Gatsby.js, GitHub and Netlify to store and deliver our content. These people don’t have access to the data itself but provide the infrastructure we need to provide our services. Services like MailChimp help us make sure we send the right messages to the right people and only the types of messages you want to receive. Google Analytics we use to determine how you learned about us and our Service, and how we can improve our user acquisition. We use partners and their technologies for our online advertising outside the Services. We run certain analytics ourselves, but we also use partners and their tools for running analytics. The Service includes social media interaction tools provided by our partners. These partners may provide us some data e.g. if you decide to link a third party tool to the Service (such as Facebook login) or decide to share content from our Service in social media. These partners may access and collect some of your data and some of them operate under their own privacy policies, which we urge you to check to learn how they use your data. If we need to combat fraud or illegal activity, we may exchange data with other companies and organizations. We may also provide data to authorities to respond to their lawful requests.

SOCIAL FEATURES

We have social features in our Service, which means that other users may see your profile data and your activities in the Service, or comments or questions you post in our forums.

WHAT WE DO WITH YOUR DATA

To sum it up, this is why we process your data:

  • to perform the contract, we process your data to
    • set up your account, operate the Service and allow you to use it as well as to manage our customer relationship with you

TRANSFERS OF DATA

Since we also operate outside of Europe, we take additional measures to make sure that there are adequate safeguards in place to protect your data when personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA). This includes having standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission in place to protect your data.

We retain your data as long as your user account is active or as needed to provide the Service. You may end this relationship by deleting your account. We will then delete all your personal data from our own and our partners’ systems, including backups within 30 days, unless there is a legitimate business interest to retain the data, such as to comply with our legal obligations, to enforce our agreements or to resolve disputes. We also periodically review and delete user accounts that have been inactive for five years.

If you choose to delete your profile, we will delete all associated information and it will be like you never signed up in the first place (with the exceptions mentioned above, meaning that if we, for a legitimate reason, have the right to retain the data). The right to rectification simply means that you have the right to correct or update your information. You may do this by editing your personal details on your profile if your information changes or happens to be incorrect. Or you can contact us at andrew@roborob.io.
