Part I – Information Palm360 collects and controls
What information Palm360 collects
We collect information about you only if we need the information for some legitimate purpose. Palm360 will have
information about you only if (a) you have provided the information yourself, (b) Palm360 has automatically
collected the information, or (c) Palm360 has obtained the information from a third party. Below we describe the
various scenarios that fall under each of those three categories and the information collected in each one.
Information that you provide us
i. Account signup: When you sign up for an account to access one or more of our
services, we ask for information like your name, contact number, email address, company name and country to
complete the account signup process. You'll also be required to choose a unique username and a password for
accessing the created account. You may also provide us with more information such as your photo, time zone
and language, but we don’t require that information to sign up for an account. After signing up, you will
have the option of choosing a security question and an answer to the security question — if you provide these,
they will be used only while resetting your password.
ii. Event registrations and other form submissions: We record information that you
submit when you (i) register for any event, including webinars or seminars, (ii) subscribe to our newsletter
or any other mailing list, (iii) submit a form in order to download any product, whitepaper, or other
materials, (iv) participate in contests or respond to surveys, or (v) submit a form to request customer
support, get a quote or to contact Palm360 for any other purpose.
iii. Payment processing: When you buy something from us, we ask you to provide your
name, contact information, and credit card information or other payment account information. When you submit
your card information, we store the name and address of the cardholder, the expiry date and the last four
digits of the credit card number. We do not store the actual credit card number. For quick processing of
future payments, if you have given us your approval, we may store your credit card information or other payment
information in an encrypted format in the secured servers of our Payment Gateway Service Providers.
iv. Testimonials: When you authorize us to post testimonials about our products and
services on websites, we may include your name and other personal information in the testimonial. You will be
given an opportunity to review and approve the testimonial before we post it. If you wish to update or delete
your testimonial, you can contact us at privacy@Palm360corp.com
v. Interactions with Palm360: We may record, analyze and use your interactions with us,
including email, telephone, and chat conversations with our sales and customer support professionals, for
improving our interactions with you and other customers.
Information that we collect automatically
i. Information from browsers, devices and servers: When you visit our websites, we collect information
that web browsers, mobile devices and servers make available, such as the internet protocol address, browser
type, language preference, time zone, referring URL, date and time of access, operating system, mobile device
manufacturer and mobile network information. We include these in our log files to understand more about
visitors to our websites.
ii. Information from cookies and tracking technologies: We use temporary and permanent cookies to
identify users of our services and to enhance user experience. We embed unique identifiers in our downloadable
products to track usage of the products. We also use cookies, beacons, tags, scripts, and other similar
technologies to identify visitors, track website navigation, gather demographic information about visitors and
users, understand email campaign effectiveness and for targeted visitor and user engagement by tracking your
activities on our websites. We mostly use first-party cookies and do not use third-party cookies or other
third-party tracking technologies on our websites for non-essential or intrusive tracking. You can learn more
about the cookies used on our websites here. You can also learn
more about Palm360's stance against non-essential and intrusive third-party cookies and tracking technology
here. We also use first-party Local Storage Objects
(LSOs) such as HTML5 to store content information and preferences to provide certain features.
iii. Information from application logs and mobile analytics: We collect information about your use of
our products, services and mobile applications from application logs and in-house usage analytics tools, and
use it to understand how your use and needs can improve our products. This information includes clicks,
scrolls, features accessed, access time and frequency, errors generated, performance data, storage utilized,
user settings and configurations, and devices used to access and their locations.
Information that we collect from third parties
i. Signups using federated authentication service providers: You can log in to Palm360 Services using
supported federated authentication service providers such as LinkedIn, Microsoft and Google. These services
will authenticate your identity and give you the option to share certain personal information with us, such
as your name and email address.
ii. Referrals: If someone has referred any of our products or services to you through any of our referral
programs, that person may have provided us your name, email address and other personal information. You may
contact us at privacy@Palm360corp.com to request that we remove your
information from our database. If you provide us information about another person, or if another person gives
us your information, we will only use that information for the specific reason for which it was provided to us.
iii. Information from our reselling partners and service providers: If you contact any of our reselling
partners, or otherwise express interest in any of our products or services to them, the reselling partner may
pass your name, email address, company name and other information to Palm360. If you register for or attend an
event that is sponsored by Palm360, the event organizer may share your information with us. Palm360 may also receive
information about you from review sites if you comment on any review of our products and services, and from
other third-party service providers that we engage for marketing our products and services.
iv. Information from social media sites and other publicly available sources: When you provide feedback
or reviews about our products, interact, or engage with us on marketplaces, review sites or social media sites
such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram through posts, comments, questions and other interactions,
we may collect such publicly available information, including profile information, to allow us to connect with
you, improve our products, better understand user reactions and issues, or to reproduce and publish your
feedback on our websites. We must tell you that once collected, this information may remain with us even if
you delete it from these sites. Palm360 may also add and update information about you, from other publicly
available sources.

Legal bases for collecting and using information
Legal processing bases applicable to Palm360: If you are an individual from the European Economic Area (EEA), our
legal basis for information collection and use depends on the personal information concerned and the specific
context in which we collect it. Most of our information collection and processing activities are typically
based on (i) contractual necessity, (ii) one or more legitimate interests of Palm360 or a third party that are not
overridden by your data protection interests, or (iii) your consent. Sometimes, we may be required to collect
your personal information based on a legal obligation, or we may need the personal information to protect your
vital interests or those of another person.
Withdrawal of consent: Where we rely on your consent as a legal basis, you have the right to withdraw your
consent at any time, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place. If you do not
provide the information that we request or withdraw the consent subsequently, we may not be able to provide you
with the service you had requested. If we are collecting or using your personal information based on a legal
obligation or to protect your vital interests, it is unlikely that you will be allowed to object to such
collection or use.
Legitimate interests notice: Where we rely on legitimate interests as a legal basis, we will carry out a
legitimate interest assessment to ensure that your interests and fundamental rights do not override those
legitimate interests. You can obtain details of this assessment upon request by contacting us at
privacy@Palm360corp.com.
Who we share your information with

information. We share your information only in the manner described in this Privacy Policy, and only with
parties who adopt appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
Employees and independent contractors
Your information may be disclosed to our employees and individuals who are independent contractors of the Palm360
group entities on a need-to-know basis. We require all employees and independent contractors of the Palm360

Third-party service providers
We may need to share your personal information and aggregated or de-identified information with third-party
service providers that we engage, such as marketing and advertising partners, event organizers, web and social
media analytics providers, hosting service providers, customer relationship management and customer support
providers, accountants, auditors, lawyers, fraud prevention agencies, and other similar entities that help us
run our business. These service providers are authorized to use your personal information only as necessary to
provide these services to us.
Reselling partners
We may share your personal information with our authorized reselling partners in your region, solely for the
purpose of contacting you about the products you have downloaded or services you have signed up for. We ensure
that our reselling partners comply with this Privacy Policy and process your personal information as directed
by Palm360 and not for any other purposes.
Marketplace application developers
When you install or purchase any application developed using Palm360's APIs that is posted on Palm360's online
marketplace, your name and email address will be shared with the developer of the application, so they can
contact you directly as the provider of that application or for any support purposes. Palm360 does not control
the use of your personal information by the developers, which will be based on their own privacy policies.

-
We may disclose your personal information to any person to whom disclosure is necessary
to protect the rights and interests of Palm360, Palm360’s users, third parties, or the public, as required or

Retention of information
We retain your personal information for as long as it is required to fulfill the purposes described in this
Privacy Policy. Sometimes, we may retain your information for longer periods as permitted or required by law,
such as to maintain suppression lists, prevent abuse, if required in connection with a legal claim or proceeding,
to enforce our agreements, for tax, accounting, or to comply with other legal obligations. When we no longer
have a legitimate need to process your information, we will delete or anonymize your information from our
active databases. We will also securely store the information and isolate it from further processing on backup
discs until deletion is possible.
