Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Hill_Wery, including its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, Hill_Wery and also referred to as our, us and we) collects, uses and discloses personal data, as well as any choices you have with respect to this personal data.

Applicability of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to Hill_Wery online collaboration tools and platform. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party applications or software that integrate with our Services (“Third-Party Services”), or any other third-party products, services or businesses.

The organization (e.g., your employer or another entity or person) (“Customer”) that entered into the Terms of Service or the Master Cloud Agreement, and any product-specific Terms (together, the “Customer Agreement”) controls its instance of the Services (its “Organization”) and any associated Customer Content. Individuals that are granted access to an Organization by a Customer (“Authorized Users”) routinely submit Customer Content to Hill_Wery when using the Services.

If you have any questions about specific Organization settings and privacy practices, please contact the Customer whose Organization you use. If you have received an invitation to join an Organization but have not yet created an account, you should request assistance from the Customer that sent the invitation.

Identifying the Data Controller and Processor

Data protection law in certain jurisdictions differentiates between the “controller” and “processor” of personal data. In general, Customer is the controller and Hill_Wery is the processor of Customer Content.

As the controller for Customer Content, Customer may, for example, use the Services to grant and remove access to an Organization, assign roles and configure settings, access, modify, export, share and remove Customer Content and otherwise apply its policies to the Services.

As the processor for Customer Content, Hill_Wery processes Customer Content only on Customer’s request and in accordance with Customer’s written instructions, including the applicable terms in the Customer Agreement, Customer’s use of the Services, and as required by applicable law. For more information about how Customer Content is processed (such as how your personal data is processed, the purpose and legal basis for processing, and your data subject rights), we refer you to the relevant Customer’s privacy notice.

The types of personal data we collect

Your personal data is provided by you, obtained from third parties, and/or created by us when you use the Services.

Hill_Wery may collect and receive Customer Content and other personal data (“Other Data”) in a variety of ways:

Customer Content. Customers or Authorized Users routinely submit Customer Content to Hill_Wery when using the Services.

Usage data

Service metadata. When an Authorized User interacts with the Services, metadata is generated to provide additional context about their use of the Services. For example, Hill_Wery logs the Organizations, boards, people, features, content and links that you view or interact with, as well the types of files shared and any Third-Party Services that you use.

Log data. Like most websites and services delivered over the Internet, our servers automatically collect information when you access or use our Websites or Services, recording this information in log files. This log data may include the Internet Protocol (IP) address, the address of the web page visited before using the Website or Services, your browser type and settings, the date and time the Services were used, information about browser configuration and plugins, and language preferences.

Device data. Hill_Wery collects information about devices accessing the Services, including the type of device, operating system used, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this Other Data often depends on the type of device used and its settings.

Location data. We receive information from you, the relevant Customer and other third-parties that helps us approximate your location. We may, for example, use a business address submitted by your employer or an IP address received from your browser or device to determine approximate location. Hill_Wery may also collect location information from devices in accordance with the consent provided by your device.

Third-party data. Hill_Wery may receive data about organizations, industries, lists of companies that are customers, Website visitors, marketing campaigns and other matters relevant to our business from parent corporations, affiliates and subsidiaries, our partners, or other third parties that we use to make our own information more useful. This data may be combined and may include aggregate-level data. For example, information about how well an online marketing or email campaign performed, or to create a business contacts directory.

Cookie data. Hill_Wery uses a variety of cookies and similar technologies in our Websites and Services to help us collect Other Data. For more details about how we use these technologies, as well as your opt-out opportunities and other options, please see our Cookie Notice.

Email performance data. Miro uses a ‘clear image’ (gif) in email communications in order to track engagement and performance metrics. Much of this data is aggregated and does not contain personal data. If you wish to turn off this tracking, you can do so by turning off images in the email itself.

Contactdata. In accordance with the consent provided by your device or other third-party API, we process any contact information that an Authorized User chooses to import when using the Services. Additional data provided to Hill_Wery. We also receive Other Data when submitted to our Websites or in other ways, such as when you request support, interact with our social media accounts or otherwise communicate with Hill_Wery.

Business data. Hill_Wery may receive information about individuals from organisations, industries, Customers, (potential) partners, parent corporations, affiliates and subsidiaries, and our partners for cooperation and communication purposes.

Generally, no one is under a statutory or contractual obligation to provide any Customer Content or Other Data (collectively, “Personal Data”). However, certain Personal Data is collected automatically and, if some Personal Data, such as Organization setup details, is not provided, we may be unable to provide the Services.
