Privacy policy

Applicability of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to Vibrantfounder’s online workplace productivity tools and platform, including the associated Vibrantfounder mobile and desktop applications (collectively, the “Service”), Vibrantfounder.com (the “Website”) and other interactions (e.g., customer service inquiries, etc.) you may have with Vibrantfounder. If you do not agree with the terms, do not access or use the Service, Website or any other aspect of Vibrantfounder’s business.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third party applications or software that integrate with the service through the Vibrantfounder platform (“Third Party Services”), or any other third party products, services or businesses. In addition, a separate agreement governs delivery, access and use of the Service (the “Customer Agreement”), including the processing of any messages, files or other content submitted through service accounts (collectively, “Customer Data”). The organization (e.g., your employer or another entity or person) that entered into the Customer Agreement (“Customer”) controls their instance of the service (their “Workspace”) and any associated Customer Data. If you have any questions about specific Workspace settings and privacy practices, please contact the Customer whose Workspace you use. If you have an account, you can check www.Vibrantfounder.app for contact information of your Workspace owner(s) and administrator(s). If you have received an invitation to join a Workspace but have not yet created an account, you should request assistance from the Customer that sent the invitation.

Information We Collect And Receive

Vibrantfounder may collect and receive Customer Data and other information and data ( “Other Information”) in a variety of ways:

• Customer Data. Customers or individuals granted access to a Workspace by a Customer (“Authorized Users”) routinely submit Customer Data to Vibrantfounder when using the service.
• Other Information. Vibrantfounder also collects, generates and/or receives Other Information:
  1. Workspace and Account Information. To create or update a Workspace account, you or your Customer (e.g., your employer) supply Vibrantfounder with an email address, phone number, password, domain and/or similar account details. In addition, Customers that purchase a paid version of the service provide Vibrantfounder (or its payment processors) with billing details such as credit card information, banking information and/or a billing address.
  2. Usage Information.
     • Service Metadata. When an Authorized User interacts with the service, metadata is generated that provides additional context about the way Authorized Users work. For example, Vibrantfounder logs the Workspaces, channels, people, features, content and links you interact with, the types of files shared and what Third Party Services are used (if any).
     • Log data. As with most websites and technology services delivered over the Internet, our servers automatically collect information when you access or use our Websites or service and record it 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 service, browser type and settings, the date and time the service was used, information about browser configuration and plugins, language preferences and cookie data.
     • Device information. Vibrantfounder collects information about devices accessing the service, including type of device, what operating system is used, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this Other Information often depends on the type of device used and its settings.
     • Location information. We receive information from you, your 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. Vibrantfounder may also collect location information from devices in accordance with the consent process provided by your device
  3. Cookie Information. Vibrantfounder uses cookies and similar technologies in our Websites and Service that help us collect Other Information. The Websites and Service may also include cookies and similar tracking technologies of third parties, which may collect Other Information about you via the Websites and Service and across other websites and online services.
  4. Third Party Services. Customer can choose to permit or restrict Third Party Services for their Workspace. Typically, Third Party Services are software that integrate with our service, and Customer can permit its Authorized Users to enable and disable these integrations for their Workspace. Once enabled, the provider of a Third Party Service may share certain information with Vibrantfounder. For example, if a cloud storage application is enabled to permit files to be imported to a Workspace, we may receive user name and email address of Authorized Users, along with additional information that the application has elected to make available to Vibrantfounder to facilitate the integration. Authorized Users should check the privacy settings and notices in these Third Party Services to understand what data may be disclosed to Vibrantfounder. When a Third Party Service is enabled, Vibrantfounder is authorized to connect and access Other Information made available to Vibrantfounder in accordance with our agreement with the Third Party Provider. We do not, however, receive or store passwords for any of these Third Party Services when connecting them to the service.
  5. Contact Information. In accordance with the consent process provided by your device, any contact information that an Authorized User chooses to import (such as an address book from a device) is collected when using the service.
  6. Third Party Data. Vibrantfounder may receive data about organizations, industries, Website visitors, marketing campaigns and other matters related to our business from parent corporation(s), affiliates and subsidiaries, our partners or others that we use to make our own information better or more useful. This data may be combined with Other Information we collect and might include aggregate level data, such as which IP addresses correspond to zip codes or countries. Or it might be more specific: for example, how well an online marketing or email campaign performed.
  7. Additional Information Provided to Vibrantfounder. We receive Other Information when submitted to our Websites or if you participate in a focus group, contest, activity or event, apply for a job, request support, interact with our social media accounts or otherwise communicate with Vibrantfounder.

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