Effective Date: April 16, 2020
Your privacy is very important to us at Bomisco, Inc., including our affiliates, subsidiaries and employees (collectively, “Bomisco”, the “Company,” “we” or “us”), and we are committed to protecting your privacy. Bomisco offers Intelligent Hyperautomation software solutions (the “Services”) to our customers. Please take a moment to read our Privacy Policy below. This Privacy Policy applies to the data collected through this website and the Services, and it describes our practices for collecting and using information and the options you have.
We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy in its entirety before submitting any personal data so you know how we collect and share your personal data. By using our website and Services you are consenting to our policies regarding your information, and the ways in which we may collect, use, process, transfer and otherwise deal with that information, as described in this Privacy Policy now and as amended by us. This Privacy Policy is intended to meet requirements globally, including those in The Americas (North America, Central America, South America), EMEA (Europe, Middle-East, Africa), APAC (including Japan, Australia, New Zealand) and other jurisdictions.
Information We Collect
Information collected directly
Bomisco collects personal data regarding individuals associated with its current, prospective, and former clients and customers, and, with respect to the Bomisco site and Services, users, visitors, and guests (collectively “Individuals”).
We may collect personal data directly from Individuals, such as your name, address and email address, and other information that can be used to contact you. We will only collect such information where it is helpful for us to communicate with you, for example, to fulfill an order you place, register for one or more Services from us, or provide you with additional information you have requested or inform you about a new offering or development related to Services.
Information collected through the Services
We may collect personal data indirectly from individuals associated with our customers using our Services such as your name, address and email address, and other information that can be used to contact you and provide you access to our website and/or Services. The types of information and the use of such information collected through our Services shall be limited to the purpose of providing the Services for which the customer has engaged Bomisco.
Please note, if Bomisco collected personal data about you through someone other than you, we would encourage you to first direct your query to Bomisco’s customer (the data controller). Bomisco will support the data controller as requested.
Information from Third-Party Sources
We may collect data, such as corporate addresses or product pricing, from third-party sources to supplement information provided by our customers. This supplemental information allows us to verify information and to enhance our ability to provide information about our business, products, and Services. Bomisco’s agreements with these third-party sources typically limit how we may use this supplemental information.
Research/Survey Solicitations
From time to time, we may contact you to participate in online surveys. If you decide to participate, you may be asked to provide certain information which may include personal data. All information collected from your participation in our surveys is provided by you voluntarily. We may use such information to improve our products, sites and/or Services and in any manner consistent with the policies provided herein.
Mobile Devices
From time to time, we may provide Services that are specifically designed to be compatible and used on mobile devices. We will collect certain information that your mobile device sends when you use such Services, like a device identifier, user settings and the operating system of your device. Mobile versions of Bomisco’s Services may require that users log in with an account. In such cases, information about use of mobile versions of the Services may be associated with user accounts. In addition, Bomisco may enable individuals to download an application, widget, or other tool that can be used on mobile or other computing devices. Some of these tools may store information on mobile or other devices. These tools may transmit personal data to us to enable Individuals to access user accounts and to enable us to track use of these tools. Some of these tools may enable users to email reports and other information from the tool. Bomisco may use personal or non-identifiable information transmitted to us to enhance these tools, to develop new tools, for quality improvement and as otherwise described in this Policy or in other notices we provide.
Use of Cookies
As is true of most websites, we and third parties that provide content, advertising, or other functionality on our Services, gather certain information through the use of cookies, pixel tags, local storage, and similar technologies (“Technologies”) to automatically collect information through the Services. We use Technologies that are essentially small data files placed on your computer, tablet, mobile phone, or other devices (referred to collectively as a “device”) that allow us to record certain pieces of information whenever you visit or interact with our sites, services, applications, messaging, and tools, and to recognize you across devices. This information may include Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, the files viewed on our site (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data. We use this information for a number of reasons, including to analyze trends, administer the website, and make improvements to the website and Services.
You can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level, but if you choose to disable cookies, it may limit your use of certain features or functions on our website or Service.
Interest-Based Advertising
We partner with third parties to manage our advertising on other sites. These third parties may use cookies or similar technologies in order to provide you targeted advertising based upon your browsing activities and interests. If you wish to opt out of interest-based advertising, click http://preferences-mgr.truste.com/, or if located in the European Union, click https://www.youronlinechoices.com/. Please note you will continue to receive generic ads.
Pixel Tags/Web Beacons
We may use “pixel tags,” also known as “web beacons,” which are small graphic files that allow us to monitor the use of our website. A pixel tag can collect information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the tag appears; the URL of the page on which the pixel tag appears; the time the page containing the pixel tag was viewed; the browser type and language; the device type; geographic location; and the identification number of any cookie on the computer previously placed by that server. When corresponding with you via HTML capable email, we or our third-party service providers may use “format sensing” technology, which allows pixel tags to let us know whether you received and opened our email.
Analytics Information
We may also use Google Analytics and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting or a similar service, to collect information regarding visitor behavior and visitor demographics on our website, and to develop website content. This analytics data is not tied to any personal data. For more information about Google Analytics, click https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. You can opt out of Google’s collection and processing of data generated by your use of the Service by clicking https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
“Do Not Track”
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. DNT is a way for users to inform websites and services that they do not want certain information about their webpage visits collected over time and across websites or online services. Bomisco does not recognize or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals. For information about “do-not-track”, click https://allaboutdnt.com/.

Disclosures to Protect Us or Others (e.g., as Required by Law and Similar Disclosures)
We may have to disclose your information when required by law or under the good-faith belief that such disclosure is necessary to conform to applicable law, comply with legal process or protect the property, safety or interests of Bomisco, its agents, its employees or the public. Under such circumstances, Bomisco may be prohibited by law, court order or other legal process from providing notice of the disclosure, and we reserve the right not to provide such notice in our sole discretion.
Merger, Sale, or Other Asset Transfers
Bomisco may sell, transfer or otherwise share some or all of its assets, including personal data, in connection with a merger, reorganization, or sale of assets, or in the event of bankruptcy. In such an event, your personal data may be transferred to and used by another company.
Choice/Opt-Out
You have the right to opt out of certain uses and disclosures of your personal data.
Where you have consented to Bomisco’s processing of your personal data, you may withdraw that consent at any time and opt-out of further processing by following the instructions in this Privacy Policy. Even if you opt-out, we may still collect and use non-personal data regarding your activities on our sites and Services and/or information from the advertisements on third-party websites for non-interest based advertising purposes, such as to determine the effectiveness of the advertisements.
If you receive an unwanted email from us, you can use the unsubscribe link found at the bottom of the email to opt-out of receiving future emails. We will process your request within a reasonable time after receipt. Note that you will continue to receive transaction-related emails regarding products or services you have requested. We may also send you certain communications regarding Bomisco and our Services and you will not be able to opt out of those communications (e.g., communications regarding updates to our Terms of Service or this Policy).
We maintain “do-not-call” and “do-not-mail” lists as mandated by law. We process requests to be placed on do-not-mail, do-not-phone and do-not-contact lists within 60 days after receipt, or such shorter time as may be required by law.
Rights of Access, Rectification, Erasure, and Restriction
You may inquire as to whether Bomisco is processing personal data about you, request access to personal data, and ask that we correct, amend, restrict, or delete your personal data where it is inaccurate. Where otherwise permitted by applicable law, you may send an e-mail to query@bomisco.com or use any of the methods set out in this Policy to request access to, receive (port), restrict processing, seek rectification, or request erasure of personal data held about you by Bomisco. Such requests will be processed in line with local laws. We will respond to your request within a reasonable time upon receipt.
Please note, if Bomisco collected personal data about you from individuals associated with our customers using our Services (as noted in section Information collected through the Services above) we would encourage you to first direct your query to Bomisco’s customer (the data controller). Bomisco will support the data controller as requested within a reasonable timeframe.
Although Bomisco makes good faith efforts to provide you with access to your personal data, there may be circumstances in which we are unable to provide access, including but not limited to: where the information is legally privileged, would compromise others’ privacy or other legitimate rights, where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to the Individual’s privacy in the case in question, or where it is commercially proprietary. If Bomisco determines that access should be restricted in any particular instance, we will provide you with an explanation of why that determination has been made and a contact point for any further inquiries. To protect your privacy, we will take commercially reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access to or making any changes to your personal data.

Security
We use physical, electronic and administrative safeguards, including firewall, encryption and password protection for our databases, designed to protect the security of the data collected and to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure to your personal data.
