This is the Privacy Policy for BINARY MANAGEMENT (“BM”) and its affiliates. It covers our handling of two categories of information:

Personal data we handle for our customers and users (“Service Data”). We collect this data through our work management and collaboration platform (including through user accounts) and through related support and professional services. We refer to all of these offerings as the “Services.” Under applicable law, BM is considered a “processor” of this data, and the company or legal entity that administers the BM account containing personal data or receiving professional services (or, for group accounts, the authorized representative of the company or legal entity) is a “controller” of the data.

Personal data we handle for our own business (“Business Data”). This includes certain data collected on our website, such as newsletter signup forms, as well as data collected through other marketing-related efforts and other business communications. Under applicable law, BM is a “controller” of this data.

This Privacy Policy has details specific to Service Data, details specific to Business Data, and information relevant to our handling of both kinds of data. If you have any questions about any of the information contained in this Policy, please feel free to contact us.

Privacy Practices Specific to Service Data

Types of Service Data

We receive information from or on behalf of our customers and their users. Because of the nature of our Services, this information may contain any type of personal data. We offer users an optional browser extension to let them create tasks from third-party webpages and view the tasks associated with a particular page. If you install it, the browser extension will check the websites you visit to see if any tasks are associated with them in BM accounts you are part of. If so, the browser extension then submits information about only those domains/pages that have tasks associated with them to BM’s servers so that the servers can search for indexed tasks belonging to (or shared with) your existing account. (If there are any such tasks associated with the domain and URL you have visited, the BM server will return names of those tasks back to your browser extension. The browser extension on your local device performs the initial screening of the domains you have visited to identify those for which tasks have been created and only sends information about those domains and URLs on to the BM servers.) Our platform also uses cookies and other automated data collection tools described in Section 3. We use the Service Data collected through such technology as described below.

Security and Data Retention

To provide security for Service Data, we maintain physical, organizational and technical safeguards, which are subject to periodic changes. We use different safeguards to help secure Business Data. Where we or our agents collect information from you, we or they will take reasonable steps to protect such information in transmission, but there may be circumstances when such information will not be protected that way. When you use BM Services - we secure it in accordance with our safeguards. If you use other methods (email, phone, etc.) the protection of the data is not secure. Third-party software and services integrated into our service (for example, Google Drive, Dropbox or other integrations) are handled by such third parties subject to their own privacy and security policies or procedures, which we do not control. We will hold your information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes set forth in this Privacy Notice or as long as we are legally required or permitted to do so. Information may persist in copies made for backup and business continuity purposes for additional time.

We and third parties may use automated means to read or write information on users’ devices, such as in various types of cookies and other browser-based or plugin-based local storage (such as HTML5 storage or Flash-based storage).

You may be able to set your web browser to refuse certain types of cookies, or to alert you when certain types of cookies are being sent. Some browsers offer similar settings for HTML5 local storage, and Flash storage can be managed here. However, if you block or otherwise reject our cookies, local storage, JavaScript or other technologies, certain websites (including our own websites) may not function properly. These technologies help us (a) keep track of whether you are signed in or have previously signed in so that we can display all the features that are available to you; (b) remember your settings on the pages you visit, so that we can display your preferred content the next time you visit; (c) display personalized content; (d) perform analytics, and measure traffic and usage trends, and better understand the demographics of our users; (e) diagnose and fix technology problems; and (f) otherwise plan for and enhance our business. Also, in some cases, we facilitate the collection of information by advertising services administered by third parties. The ad services may track users’ online activities over time by collecting information through automated means such as cookies, and they may use this information to show users ads that are tailored to their individual interests or characteristics and/or based on prior visits to certain sites or apps, or other information we or they know, infer or have collected from the users. For example, we and these providers may use different types of cookies, other automated technology, and data (i) to recognize users and their devices, (ii) to inform, optimize, and serve ads and (iii) to report on our ad impressions, other uses of ad services, and interactions with these ad impressions and ad services (including how they are related to visits to specific sites or apps).

You can opt out of Google Analytics and customize the Google Display Network ads by visiting the Google Ads Settings page. Google also allows you to install a Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for your browser.
