Last Updated: November 14, 2024

This Privacy Policy is designed to help you understand how Oomnitza, Inc. (“Oomnitza,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, processes, and shares your personal information, and to help you understand and exercise your privacy rights.

1. SCOPE AND UPDATES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information processed by us, including on our websites and other online or offline offerings. To make this Privacy Policy easier to read, our websites and other offerings are collectively called the “Services.
An Important Note: This Privacy Policy does not apply to any of the personal information that we process on behalf of our customers through their use of our Services (“Customer Data”). Our customers’ respective privacy policies govern their collection and use of Customer Data. Our processing of Customer Data is governed by the contracts that we have in place with our customers, not this Privacy Policy. Any questions or requests relating to Customer Data should be directed to our customer.

Changes to our Privacy Policy. We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time in our sole discretion. If there are any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you as required by applicable law. You understand and agree that you will be deemed to have accepted the updated Privacy Policy if you continue to use our Services after the new Privacy Policy takes effect.

    • Cookies. Cookies are small text files placed in device browsers that store preferences and facilitate and enhance your experience.
    • Pixel Tags/Web Beacons. A pixel tag (also known as a web beacon) is a piece of code embedded in our Services that collects information about engagement on our Services. The use of a pixel tag allows us to record, for example, that a user has visited a particular web page or clicked on a particular advertisement. We may also include web beacons in e-mails to understand whether messages have been opened, acted on, or forwarded.

Our uses of these Technologies fall into the following general categories:

  • Operationally Necessary. This includes Technologies that allow you access to our Services, applications, and tools that are required to identify irregular website behavior, prevent fraudulent activity, improve security, or allow you to make use of our functionality;

For more information about the safeguards we use for international transfers of your personal information, please contact us as set forth below.

8. EU – U.S. Data Privacy Framework, UK Extension to the EU – U.S. Data Privacy Framework, and Swiss – U.S. Data Privacy Framework

Oomnitza complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (“EU-U.S. DPF”),  the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (“Swiss-U.S. DPF”) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

Oomnitza has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that, for transfers of personal information to the U.S., we adhere to: (i) the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles with regards to the processing of personal information received from the European Union in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and from the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and (ii) the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles with regards to the processing of personal information received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF (collectively, the “DPF Principles” or the “EU, UK, and Swiss Data Privacy Framework Principles”). If there is any conflict between the terms in this privacy policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the DPF Principles shall govern.  To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework Program and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.

The Federal Trade Commission has jurisdiction over Oomnitza’s compliance with the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF. If we receive personal information in the United States that is subject to the DPF Principles and subsequently transfer that personal information to a third party acting as an agent, we will remain liable under the DPF Principles if our agent processes such personal information in a manner inconsistent with the DPF Principles, unless we prove that we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.

In accordance with the requirements of the DPF Principles, Oomnitza allows individuals whose personal information is subject to the DPF Principles the opportunity to choose (opt out) whether their personal information is (i) to be disclosed to a third party or (ii) to be used for a purpose that is materially different from the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individuals. Individuals whose personal information is subject to the DPF Principles that wish to exercise these choices may contact us as set forth in “Contact Us” below.

Please note that we may be required to disclose your personal information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

In compliance with the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF, Oomnitza commits to resolve DPF Principles-related complaints about our collection or use of your personal information. EU, UK, and Swiss individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding our handling of personal information received in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF should first contact Oomnitza’s Security & Privacy Team at privacy@oomnitza.com or (866) 985-0557.

In compliance with the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF, Oomnitza commits to cooperate and comply respectively with the advice of the panel established by the EU data protection authorities (DPAs), the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority (GRA), and the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) with regard to unresolved complaints concerning our handling of personal information received in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF.

Under certain conditions, as more fully described in Pre-Arbitration Requirements of Annex I of the DPF Principles, you may invoke binding arbitration for complaints regarding DPF compliance not resolved by any of the other DPF mechanisms.
