Eventbee PRIVACY POLICY


Eventbee respects the privacy of anyone who uses a Eventbee Web site and Eventbee online software.

Eventbee gathers important information from our visitors and customers. We publish this Privacy Policy to communicate how we gather and use information about you, how we protect it, and how you can participate in its protection.

Eventbee provides its service to you subject to the Eventbee Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy, which shall be deemed part of the Terms of Service. We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy. If we change it, we will provide notification of the change at least thirty (30) business days before the change takes effect and include directions for how you can respond to the change.

Collected Information

We require people who register to use a Eventbee online software (the "Services") to give us contact information. Depending on the services chosen, we ask for contact and account information, such as name, company name, address, phone number, e-mail address, password , in addition to financial and billing information, such as billing name, address and credit card number. When you express interest in additional information, when you register for the Services, or after you become a user, we may ask for additional personal information, such as title, mobile number, fax number or additional company information, such as annual revenues, number of employees or industry. You can opt out of providing additional information by not entering it when asked.

Eventbee does not distribute or share customer e-mail addresses, except as noted in its Terms of Service, or as may be required by law.

Eventbee uses the information we collect to set up the Services for individuals and their organizations. We may also use the information to contact customers and prospects to further discuss their interest in our company, the Services we provide and ways we can improve them, and to send information such as announcements of promotions and events regarding our company or partners. We may also e-mail a customer newsletter and updates about the Services or the company. You can opt out of receiving these communications by replying to them at the time they are distributed or at any time by e-mailing us.

All financial and billing information that we collect through a Eventbee Web site and the Services is used solely to bill for the Services. Eventbee does not use this billing information for marketing or promotional purposes. Except as we explicitly state at the time we request information, or as provided for in the Eventbee Terms of Service, we do not disclose to any third party the information provided.

Eventbee has referral relationships with third-party companies and individuals ("Referral Partners") who refer their customers to Eventbee. Customers who become paying users of a Eventbee online software through a Referral Partner are considered customers of both Eventbee and the Referral Partner. Eventbee and a Referral Partner may share customer contact as well as account, financial and billing information with respect to their joint business relationship with the customer. The sharing of this information allows Eventbee and the Referral Partner to establish the identity of the shared customer and determine referral fees owed. This sharing also allows Referral Partners to provide consolidated billing services to the shared customer. Shared contact and account, financial and billing information is governed by the Eventbee Terms of Service. Eventbee does not share your business data with Referral Partners.

Eventbee has integration relationships with third-party companies and individuals ("Partners"). These relationships extend the functionality of the Services and the Integration Partner application or service ("Integrated Service") by allowing the Services and the Integrated Service to exchange customer data and to establish linked business processes between the two. Customers who pay Eventbee for use of the Services and use this Integrated Service are considered customers of both Eventbee and the Partner. Eventbee and Partner may share customer contact, account, financial and billing information, and business data with respect to their integrated business relationship with the customer. The sharing of this information allows Eventbee and the Partner to establish the identity of the shared customer and determine referral fees owed. This sharing also allows the Partner to provide consolidated billing services to the shared customer and allows for the enhanced functionality of the integrated service. Shared contact, account, financial and billing information, and business data is governed by the Eventbee Terms of Service.

Eventbee uses a third-party intermediary to manage credit card processing. This intermediary is solely a link in the distribution chain and is not permitted to store, retain, or use the information provided, except for the sole purpose of credit card processing. Eventbee does not store customer credit card information on its servers.

Other third parties, such as content providers, may provide information on a Eventbee Web site, but they are not permitted to collect any information, nor does Eventbee share any personally identifiable user information with these parties.

Eventbee customers use Eventbee online software to host data and information. Eventbee will not review, share, distribute, print, or reference any such data except as provided in the Eventbee Terms of Service, or as may be required by law. We will view or access individual records only with your permission (for example, to resolve a problem or support issue). Of course, users of the Services are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of their user registration and passwords.

Eventbee may also collect certain information from visitors to a Eventbee Web site and customers of the Services, such as Internet addresses. This information is logged to help diagnose technical problems and to administer the Eventbee Web site and Services in order to constantly improve quality. We may also track and analyze non-identifying and aggregate usage and volume statistical information from visitors and customers and provide such information to third parties.

Eventbee uses a persistent encrypted cookie, if the client requests, to save and retrieve individual authentication information as well as other per-client device preferences.

Eventbee issues a mandatory session cookie to each user of the Services only to record encrypted authentication information for the duration of a specific session. If you reject this cookie, access to and usage of the Services will be denied.

For sales customers and prospects, we retain your data as long as we maintain a relationship with you and for a limited period of thereafter as necessary to meet business and legal requirements.

Security

Eventbee has security measures in place for the Services to help protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the data under Eventbee's control. When the Services are accessed using Netscape Navigator, or Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 4.0 or higher, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology protects information using both server authentication and data encryption to help ensure data is safe, secure and available only to you. Eventbee also implements an advanced security method based on dynamic data and encoded session identifications and hosts the Services in a secure server environment using a firewall and other advanced technology to prevent interference or access from outside intruders. Finally, Eventbee requires unique user names and passwords that must be entered each time a customer logs on. These safeguards help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the appropriate use of data.

Opt-Out Policy

Eventbee offers you a means to choose how we may use information you provided.
