GDPR Privacy Notice

Overview

• Bopple (collectively, Bopple, we, us, our) is committed to protecting your privacy. We have prepared this GDPR Privacy Notice to describe to you our practices regarding personal information we collect from users of our services, including our website at www.bopple.com, our web application at www.bopple.app, and our App available on the Apple Store and Google Play, and all other services provided by Bopple (Services).
• Our primary privacy obligations are derived from Australian law. Our Privacy Policy, available on our website, sets out how we comply with these obligations. Sometimes, we also handle the information of EU citizens or share data with other organisations which do so or provide services to individuals located in the EU. To the extent that we do so, this GDPR Privacy Notice for EU General Data Protection Regulation applies.
• The processing of Personal Information will always be in line with the Australian Privacy Principles contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with country-specific data protection regulations and other applicable requirements for Bopple. We have implemented a number of technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection of Personal Information processed through the Services.

Your rights

• The GDPR provides you with eight key rights, being the right to:
  • Be informed: anyone processing your data must make clear what they are processing, why and who else the data may be passed to.
  • Access: the right to access what data is held about you.
  • Rectification: the right to have your data corrected or amended if what is held is incorrect.
  • Erasure: the right to ask for your personal data to be deleted, also known as the right to be forgotten, if permitted under applicable laws.
  • Restrict processing: the right to require a temporary halt to the processing of personal data.
  • Data portability: the right to request that any data supplied by you to us be provided in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
  • Object: the right to object to further processing of your data which is inconsistent with the primary purpose for which it was collected.
  • Consider automated decision making and profiling: the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing.
• This Privacy Notice sets out, among other things, how you can exercise these rights when dealing with Bopple.

User Consent

• Where we rely on your consent as the lawful basis to process your data under the GDPR we will always ask for you to positively affirm your acceptance. By clicking to accept this Privacy Notice, you acknowledge and agree to be bound by this Privacy Notice.
• We note that all contact or other data forms where consent is required to be given by you include no pre-checked checkboxes so that you are able to freely, affirmatively opt-in. We will also provide you with notice on the Services specifically detailing what it is that you are consenting to in clear and plain language as well as ensuring that each matter that requires consent is clearly distinguishable.
• For all areas of the Services where consent is given it is just as easily able to be withdrawn through the appropriate account settings on the Services or by contacting us.
• If you believe that consent has not been given freely or in breach of the terms of this Privacy Notice, please contact us.

Personal Information we collect

• We will only collect Personal Information from you if it is reasonably necessary for one or more of our functions or activities. Personal Information means any information that allows someone to identify you, including, for example, your name, telephone number, e-mail address, date of birth, as well as any other non-public information about you that is associated with or linked to any of the foregoing data.

If you contact or message another user through our website or App, we will also collect this data. We will store and process your communications and information as needed. We may also collect contact information if you choose to upload, sync, or import it from a device.
  • The legal basis for this processing is based on either your consent through your voluntary submission of the form and agreeing to these terms or by your voluntary submission of data to us by other means; the Personal Information being necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party; for carrying out pre-contractual measures; and/or any other legitimate interests as detailed below.

  • By submitting the form and voluntarily providing us with your data, you are providing consent to the use of such data by us. For the purpose of revocation of consent there is a corresponding unsubscribe link found in each subscription email. You may also contact us at legal@bopple.com to revoke your consent.

  • We retain information on your behalf, such as domain names, URLs, time zone preferences, Service invoices, transactional history, messages and any other information that you store using your Account.
  • We may also collect Personal Information at other points on our Services that state that Personal Information is being collected. In some circumstances, Personal Information is provided to us by third parties such as our related entities, service providers or other organisations conducting activities on your behalf. With your express consent, your Personal Information may be used and disclosed to us this way. The purposes as outlined above may include the processing of such Personal Information to the extent necessary for us to comply with a law, regulation or legal request or to protect the safety of any person or to prevent fraud.
• Information we collect as you use our services
  • Meta Data including Location Data
    • Some of our Services (including the App) may allow you to add or have metadata added to your content including hashtags (to mark keywords), geotags (to mark your location), comments or other data. This helps our Services and your content to be more searchable.
    • We use location data to help target and tailor the Services to your particular location and jurisdiction. With your consent, we may also collect information about your precise location using methods including GPS, wireless networks, cell towers, Wi-Fi access points and other sensors.
  • Log Data
    • To make our Services more useful to you, our servers (which may be hosted by a third-party service provider) gather some information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type and language, Internet service provider (ISP), referring and exit websites and applications, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.
    • We use this information to understand and analyse trends, to administer the Services, to learn about user behaviour regarding the Services, to improve our product and services, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. Bopple may use this information in our marketing and advertising services.
    • In some of our email messages, we use a “click-through URL” linked to content on our Services. When customers click one of these URLs, they pass through a separate web server before arriving at the destination page on our website. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in particular topics and measure the effectiveness of our customer communications. If you prefer not to be tracked in this way, you should not click text or graphic links in the email messages.
  • Analytics
    • We use third party analytics tools to collect information anonymously and report website trends without identifying individual visitors. These tools collect information sent by your device or our Services, including the web pages you visit, add-ons, and other information that assists us in improving the Services.
• Information we collect from others
  • Data and content other people upload
    • We may also collect information and communications that other people provide when they use our Services. This can include information about you such as when others send messages, documents and information to you. If you are a worker, this might include information that your employer provides to us. We may also collect your information if you are invited to participate in our Services. This may include information such as your name, mailing address, phone number and email address relevant to the Services and is used for the purpose of enabling us to provide our Services to you.
    • We will only collect information about you directly from you, except where it is unreasonable or impracticable to do so.

Cookies Policy

• What are cookies?
  A cookie is a small piece of text sent to your browser by a website that you visit. It helps the website to remember information about your visit, like your preferred language and other settings. That can make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you. Cookies play an important role. Without them, using the web would be a much more frustrating experience.
• Use of cookies
  Bopple’s Services including websites, online services, interactive applications, email messages, and advertisements may use “cookies” and other technologies such as pixel tags and web beacons. These technologies help us better understand user behaviour, tell us which parts of our websites people have visited, and facilitate and measure the effectiveness of advertisements and web searches.
  • We treat information collected by cookies and other technologies as non-personal information. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by local law, we also treat these identifiers as personal information. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal information is combined with personal information, we treat the combined information as personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Notice.
  • Bopple and our partners also use cookies and other technologies to remember personal information when you use our Services. Our goal in these cases is to make your experience with Bopple more convenient and personal. For example, knowing your first name lets us welcome you the next time you visit the Bopple platform. Knowing that someone using your computer or device has shopped for a certain product or used a particular service helps us make our advertising and email communications more relevant to your interests. And knowing your contact information, hardware identifiers, and information about your computer or device helps us personalise your experience and provide you with better customer service.
  • Pixel tags enable us to send email messages in a format customers can read, and they tell us whether mail has been opened. We may use this information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to customers.
• How to manage cookies
  Some people prefer not to allow cookies, which is why most browsers give you the ability to manage cookies to suit your preferences. If you want to disable cookies and you’re using the Safari web browser, go to Safari preferences and then to the privacy pane to manage your preferences. For other browsers, check with your provider to find out how to disable cookies. Please note that certain features of the Bopple Services may not be available once cookies are disabled.

Third party websites

• When you click on a link to any other website or location, you will leave our website and go to another site and another entity may collect Personal Information or Anonymous Data from you. We have no control over, do not review, and cannot be responsible for, these outside websites or their content. Please be aware that the terms of this Privacy Notice do not apply to these outside websites or content, or to any collection of data after you click on links to such outside websites.

Managing your Personal Information

  We may, if required, provide you with tools and account settings to access, correct, delete, or modify the Personal Information you provided to us. You can find out more about how to do this by contacting us. In the event that you are unable to access your Account to access or rectify your Personal Information, you may submit a request to us to correct, delete or modify your Personal Information and download the data for you.

• Portability
  We may, if required and possible, provide you with the means to download the information you have shared through our Services. Please contact us for further information on how this can be arranged.
  • In certain instances, we may not be required or able to provide you with access to your personal information. If this occurs, we will give you reasons for our decision not to provide you with such access to your personal information in accordance with the GDPR.
  • There is no application fee for making a request to access your personal information. However, we may charge an administrative fee for the provision of information in certain circumstances such as if you make repeated requests for information or where the information is held by a third-party provider.
  • Where we act as a data processor, we do so on behalf of our client and in accordance with their instructions. This means that should you wish to access, review, correct, transfer, modify or delete any Personal Information we process on behalf of a client you should contact the client with your request.

Storage and Security of Your Personal Information

• Bopple stores Personal Information in Amazon Web Services. Bopple takes the security of your personal information very seriously. We will take all steps reasonable under the circumstances to protect your personal information from misuse, interference, loss; and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. We will process Personal Information securely and apply and maintain appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect Personal Information.
• The transmission and exchange of information is carried out at your own risk. We cannot guarantee the security of any information that you transmit to us or receive from us. Although we take measures to safeguard against unauthorised disclosures of information, we cannot assure you that personal information that we collect will not be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Notice.

International Transfer and Disclosure of Personal Information

  • our related bodies corporate;
  • our data hosting and other IT service providers, located in various countries; and
  • other third parties located in various foreign countries.

Notifiable Data Breaches

We will endeavour to meet the 72-hour deadline as imposed by the GDPR, to report any data breach to the supervisory authority where a data breach occurs that will likely be a risk to you. Further, where there is likely to be a high risk to your rights, we will endeavour to contact you without undue delay. We will review every incident and take action to prevent future breaches.

Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

• You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you, or similarly significantly affects you, as long as the decision is not necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between us, or is not authorised by Union or Member State law to which we are subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or is not based on your explicit consent. If you wish to exercise your rights, please contact us.

Integrity and Retention of Data

• We take all reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we collect about you is accurate, up to date and complete. Where we collect that information from you directly, we rely on you to supply accurate information. Bopple makes it easy for you to keep your personal information accurate, complete, and up to date. Where we use or disclose your personal information, we will also ensure that your personal information is relevant.
