1. We process your personal data in the following ways
1.1 Information you provide directly to us
Certain parts of our service may require you to voluntarily provide personal data: for example, we may ask you to provide your name, email address, marketing preferences, subscription type and brand in order to register an account with us, subscribe to our marketing communications and/or submit inquiries to us or complete surveys. The data you are asked to provide and the reasons why you are asked to provide data will be explained to you when we ask you to provide data.

This information may include your name and email address, as well as any other information you allow the third party to share with us. You should always review and, if necessary, adjust the privacy settings of third-party services before linking or connecting third-party services to our service. You can also unlink your third-party account from our service by adjusting the settings of the third-party service.

We also collect information about how you interact with our service, such as the pages you view, links you click, features you use, session duration, whether you log into your account and purchasing behavior, and we may infer your industry from the categories of images or videos used. Collecting this information enables us to better understand how people use our service, and we use this information for internal analysis purposes to improve the quality and relevance of our service. We may also use this information to create aggregated anonymous statistics for providing certain features in the service as well as promoting and improving our service.
2. Legal basis for processing personal data
We need a legal basis to collect, use and disclose your personal data. The legal basis for our collection, use and disclosure of your data will depend on the relevant data and the context of processing. However, we generally only process your data when we need the data to fulfill a contract with you, it is in our legitimate interests, or we have obtained your consent. In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to process your data.

If you contact us (for example by email or phone), your data will be processed to perform pre-contractual measures, fulfill our contract with you, or because it is in our legitimate interests.
2.2 General data processing in business relationships
If your data is processed to handle business transactions and process sales of our services, your data will be processed to perform pre-contractual measures, fulfill our contract with you, or because it is in our legitimate interests.
2.3 Data processing for direct marketing purposes
If we contact you to inform you about our company news, offers and events and promote our own range of services, your data will be processed based on your consent or because it is in our legitimate interests.
2.4 Data processing for managing security, performing data analysis and improving our services
We process your data to ensure system security, technically manage the website, optimize service quality and analyze usage and improve our services, which is in our legitimate interests. We do not rely on this legal basis when our legitimate interests are overridden by your interests in protecting data.
2.5 Data processing to comply with our legal obligations
We may process your data because it is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations, such as for tax, accounting and audit purposes.
3. Sharing your personal data
We may disclose your personal data to the following categories of recipients:
To our group companies, service providers and partners who provide us with data processing services (for example, supporting delivery, providing functionality on our website or helping to enhance security or providing us with analytics services) or otherwise process data for the purposes described in this privacy policy or the purposes we notify you of when we collect your data.
To any competent law enforcement body, regulatory authority, government agency, court or other third party where we believe disclosure is necessary as a matter of applicable law or regulation, to exercise, establish or defend our legal rights, or to protect your vital interests or those of any other person.
To an actual or potential buyer (and its agents and advisers) in connection with any actual or proposed purchase, merger or acquisition of our business, provided that we inform the buyer that it must use your personal information only for the purposes disclosed in this privacy policy.
To any other person with your consent to the disclosure.
4. Your rights regarding your personal data
You have the right to access data we process about you, obtain correction of inaccurate data, request deletion of your data, restrict our processing of your data, request portability of your data, and/or object to unreasonable processing. If we process your data based on your consent, you may choose to withdraw your consent at any time. Doing so will not affect the lawfulness of processing we conducted based on your consent before its withdrawal.
You can exercise any of these rights by contacting us using the contact details provided under the "Contact" heading at the bottom of this page. We respond to all requests we receive in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
You also have the right to opt out of marketing communications we send you at any time.

5. How long we retain your personal data
We retain personal data we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements).
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal data, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. We may retain certain account information to comply with our legal obligations (for example for accounting and audit purposes).
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect our current practice and ensure compliance with applicable laws. When we post changes to this policy, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy.
