Privacy Policy
This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) governs how we, Churny ApS. (“Churney.” “we”, “our” or “us”) use Personal Information (defined below) that we collect, receive, and store about you (“User,” “you”) in connection with the following use cases:
The type of information we collect
We collect information through various interactions with our platform. When you visit our website at https://churney.io/, engage with us through customer support or other inquiries, or use our Churney platform. Additionally, we gather data when you develop new predictive analytics models or use cases and when you simply browse or interact with our website. We process information when handling job applications when you sign up for our email newsletter, and when we use personal information from our service providers and suppliers. Our data collection extends to acquiring personal information from external sources, such as lead-generation companies, and when you engage with us on social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
We hold your privacy in the highest regard, and our platform is designed to meet the most stringent user privacy standards. We urge you to read this Privacy Policy thoroughly to understand our practices regarding Personal Data. “Personal Data” refers to any information that can uniquely identify a living human being, either on its own or in combination with other data. Please note that this is a comprehensive privacy policy, and some of its provisions are specific to individuals in certain jurisdictions. For instance, the legal basis in the table below is only applicable to GDPR-protected individuals.
This Privacy Policy can be updated from time to time, so we ask you to check back periodically for the latest version, as indicated below. If there are any significant changes to the use of your Personal Data in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection, we will notify you by posting a notice on our Website or by other means.
Finally, please note that some of the abovementioned Personal Data will be used for fraud detection, prevention, and security purposes.
Retention period:
Personal Data: Your data will be retained until it is no longer needed; at this point, it will be proactively deleted unless a valid deletion request is received. Retention periods may be extended or shortened by data retention laws. We adhere to an internal data retention policy to avoid keeping data indefinitely.
Cookies: The retention of cookies varies depending on their type. Essential cookies cannot be disabled, but you can control and delete other types of cookies through your browser settings.
How we protect and store your information
a. Security. We have implemented robust technical, organizational, and security measures designed to reduce the risk of accidental destruction or loss or the unauthorized disclosure or access to such information relevant to the nature of the information concerned. However, we cannot guarantee that the information will not be exposed due to unauthorized server penetration. Nevertheless, we make commercially reasonable efforts to make the collection and security of such information consistent with this Privacy Policy and all applicable laws and regulations. As information security depends in part on the security of the computer, device, or network you use to communicate with us and the security you use to protect your user IDs and passwords, please take appropriate measures to protect this information.
b. Retention of your Personal Information. In addition to the retention periods mentioned in Section 4 above, in some circumstances, we may store your Personal Information for longer periods, for example (i) where we are required to do so by legal, regulatory, tax, or accounting requirements, or (ii) for us to have an accurate record of your dealings with us in the event of any complaints or challenges, or (iii) if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation relating to your Personal Information or dealings.
How we share your personal information
In addition to the recipients described in Section 4, we may share your information as follows:
To the extent necessary, with regulators, to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, rules, and requests of law enforcement, regulatory, and other governmental agencies or if required to do so by court order;
If, in the future, we sell or transfer some or all of our business or assets to a third party, we will (to the minimum extent required) disclose information to a potential or actual third-party purchaser of our business or assets. Suppose we are acquired by or merged with a third party entity, or in the event of bankruptcy or a comparable event. In that case, we reserve the right to transfer or assign Personal Information concerning the preceding events.
Where you have provided your consent to us sharing the Personal Information (e.g., where you provide us with marketing consents or opt-in to optional additional Services or functionality); and
Where we receive requests for information from law enforcement or regulators, we carefully validate these requests before any Personal Information is disclosed.
refully validate these requests before any Personal Data is disclosed.
