Other Services You Link To Your Account

We receive information about you when you or your administrator integrate or link another service with our Services. For example, if you login to an account using single sign on, we receive your name and email address as permitted by your single sign on settings to authenticate you. You or your administrator may also integrate our Services with other services you use, such as to allow you to access, store, share and edit certain content from a third-party source through our Services. For example, you may authorize our Services to access, display and store files from a third-party document-sharing service (e.g., SharePoint) within the Services interface. Or you may authorize our Services to connect with a third-party calendaring service so that your tasks are available to you through the Services.

How We Use Information We Collect

How we use the information we collect depends in part on which Services you use, how you use them, and any preferences you have communicated to us. Below are the specific purposes for which we use the information we collect about you.

To Provide The Services And Personalize Your Experience

We use information about you to provide the Services to you, including to authenticate you when you log in, provide customer support, and operate and maintain the Services. For example, we use the name you provide in your account to identify you to other Service users. Our Services also include tailored features that personalize your experience, enhance your productivity, and improve your ability to collaborate effectively with others. We also use information about you to connect you with other team members seeking your subject matter expertise.

For Research And Development

We are always looking for ways to make our Services smarter, faster, secure, integrated, and useful to you. We use collective learnings about how people use our Services and feedback provided directly to us to troubleshoot and to identify trends, usage, activity patterns and areas for integration and improvement of the Services. For example, to improve the search feature, we automatically analyze recent searches among users and how often they use the first result found. We automatically analyze and aggregate frequently used search terms to improve the accuracy of search results. In some cases, we apply these learnings across our Services to improve and develop similar features or to better integrate the services you use. We also test and analyze certain new features with some users before rolling the feature out to all users.

To Communicate With You About The Services

We use your contact information to send transactional communications via secure email and within the Services, including confirming your purchases, reminding you of subscription expirations, responding to your comments, questions and requests, providing customer support, and sending you technical notices, updates, security alerts, and administrative messages. We send you secure email notifications when you or others interact with you on the Services, for example, when you are mentioned on support ticket. We al so provide tailored communications based on your activity and interactions with us. For example, certain actions you take in the Services may automatically trigger a feature suggestion within the Services that would make that task easier. We also send you communications as you onboard to a Service to help you become more proficient in using that Service. These communications are part of the Services and in most cases, you cannot opt out of them. If an opt out is available, you will find that option within t he communication itself or in your account settings.

To Market, Promote And Drive Engagement With The Services

We use your contact information and information about how you use the Services to send promotional communications that may be of specific interest to you, including by email and by displaying PSI ads on other companies’ websites and applications, as well as on platforms like Google. These communications are aimed at driving engagement and maximizing what you get out of the Services, including information about new features, survey requests, newsletters, and events we think may be of interest to you. We also communicate with you about new product offers, promotions and contests. You can control whether you receive these communications as described below under Opt-Out of Communications.

Customer Support

We use your information to resolve technical support issues you encounter, to respond to your requests for assistance, to analyze crash information, and to repair and improve the Services.

For Safety And Security

We use information about you and your Service use to verify accounts and activity, to monitor suspicious or fraudulent activity and to identify violations of Services policies. To Protect Our Legitimate Business Interests And Legal Rights Where required by law or where we believe it is necessary to protect our legal rights, interests and the interests of others, we use information about you in connection with legal claims, compliance, regulatory, and audit functions, and disclosures in connection with the acquisition, merger or sale of a business. With Your Consent We use information about you where you have given us consent to do so for a specific purpose not listed above.

W e collect and process information about you only where we have legal bases for doing so under applicable EU laws. The legal bases depend on the Services you use and how you use them. This means we collect and use your information only where:

• You give us consent to do so for a specific purpose; or
• We need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.

If you have consented to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place.

How We Store and Secure Information We Collect

Information Storage and Security

Our production servers are in the SSAE -16 compliant NaviSite Data Center in Andover, MA. Since 2009, PSI has collaborated with NaviSite, a global provider of enterprise -class, cloud -computing, and managed dedicated hosting solutions, for hosting our On-Demand products. NaviSite (wholly owned by Spectrum) has a proven record of accomplishment providing hosting and managed service, with more than 1,500 customers across 12 data centers. Our physical disaster recovery site is provided by Acronis/Equinix in Ashburn, VA. This allows for a warm site recover y in a disaster scenario.

We create a secure virtual environment for every hosted customer. This environment comes with its own instance of PMAPS and its own single tenant SQL database. This is unique in the proposal software market and reflects our focus on providing the highest level of IT security and privacy. No customer may enter another’s environment, and data is not shared between customers. All transmitted data is encrypted using SHA256 -bit encryption.

How Long We Keep Information

Data Ownership

You always own the data stored in PMAPS. Upon termination, we will provide your data to according to the terms of the subscription agreement. On premises installations are excluded because all data resides on your servers.

Account Information

We retain your general account information for as long as your subscription agreement is active and a reasonable period thereafter in case you decide to re -activate the Services. We also retain some of your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to enforce our agreements, to support business operations, and to continue to develop and improve our Services. Where we retain information for Service improvement and development, we take steps to eliminate information that directly identifies you, and we only use the information to uncover collective insights about the use of our Services, not to specifically analyze personal characteristics about you.

Information You Share On The Services

If your account is deactivated or disabled, some of your information and the content you have provided will remain to allow your team members or other users to make full use of the Services.

Managed Accounts

If the Services are made available to you through an organization (e.g., your employer), we retain your information if required by the administrator of your account. For more information, see Managed accounts and administrators above.

How to Access and Control Your Information

You have certain choices available to you when it comes to your information. Below is a summary of those choices, how to exercise them and any limitations.

Your Choices:

You have the right to request a copy of your information, to object to our use of your information (including for marketing purposes), to request the deletion or restriction of your information, or to request your information in a structured, electronic format. Below, we describe the tools and processes for making these requests. You can exercise some of the choices by logging into the Services and using settings available within the Services or your account. Where the Services are administered for you by an administrator (see “Notice to End Users” below), you may need to contact your administrator to assist with your requests first. For all other requests, you may contact us as provided in the Contact Us section below to request assistance.

Your Request And Choices May Be Limited In Certain Cases

For example, you can access your contact profile linked to your user account and search for content containing any information about you using key word searches in the Service. You can update your user account and/or contact profile information within your profile settings and modify content that contains information about you using the editing tools associated with the Services.

If you no longer wish to use our Services, your administrator may deactivate your Services account. Please contact your administrator to request deactivation.

Delete Your Information

Our Services and related documentation give you the ability to delete certain information about you from within the Service.

Please note, however, that we may need to retain certain information for record keeping purposes or to comply with our legal obligations and your administrators may need to keep certain information as it pertains to your past participation within the Services (e.g., as a subject matter expert).

Request That We Stop Using Your Information

In some cases, you may ask us to stop accessing, storing, using and otherwise processing your information where you believe we don’t have the appropriate rights to do so.

Where you gave us consent to use your information for a limited purpose, you can contact us to withdraw that consent, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place at the time. You can also opt -out of our use of your information for marketing purposes by contacting us, as provided below. When you make such requests, we may need time to investigate and facilitate your request. If there is delay or dispute as to whether we have the right to continue using your information, we will restrict any further use of your information until the request is honored or the dispute is resolved, provided your administrator does not object (where applicable).

Opt Out Of Communications

You may opt out of receiving promotional communications from us by using the unsubscribe option within the email, or by contacting us as provided below to have your contact information removed from our promotional email list or registration database. Even after you opt out from receiving promotional messages from us, you will continue to receive transactional messages from us regarding our Services.

Cookies and Tracking

Your privacy is important to us, and we believe in giving you full transparency over the use of cookies and other tracking technologies when you visit our websites or use our Services. This section explains how we use cookies and your choices regarding their use.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit certain websites. They are used to remember your preferences, help you navigate between pages more efficiently, understand how you interact with our Services, and generally improve your browsing experience. Additionally, cookies may be used for advertising purposes.

Types of Cookies We Use

Necessary Cookies: These are essential for you to browse our websites and use their features. Without these cookies, services like shopping carts and billing cannot be provided. These cookies do not collect information about you that could be used for marketing or remembering where you’ve been on the internet.

Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use our websites, for instance, which pages you go to most often and if you get error messages from web pages. This data may be used to help optimize our websites and make them easier for you to navigate. These cookies are also used to let affiliates know if you came to one of our websites from an affiliate and if your visit resulted in the purchase of a product or service from us, including details of the product or service purchased. Performance cookies are not used to collect personal information that identifies a visitor.

Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow our websites to remember choices you make while browsing, such as your language preferences or your login details. The information these cookies collect will not personally identify you, and they cannot track your browsing activity on non-PSI websites.

Send “Do Not Track” Signals

Some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” (DNT) features that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal, our Services do not currently respond to browser DNT signals. You can use the range of other tools we provide to control data collection and use, including the ability to opt out of receiving marketing from us as described above.

Data Portability

Data portability is the ability to obtain some of your information in a format you can move from one service provider to another (for instance, when you transfer your mobile phone number to another carrier).
