It also describes how we use and disclose such information, as well as your rights with respect to Traction Rec's collection, use, and disclosure of such information. This Privacy Policy is to be read together with Traction Rec's Terms and Conditions found at https://tractionrec.com/terms-and-conditions/.
We understand the importance of your privacy and we treat all information we receive in a responsible manner. By accessing or using the Website, you agree that we may collect, use, and disclose Personal Data, Aggregate Information, and Cookies pursuant to this Privacy Policy.
We may change or update this Privacy Policy from time to time by posting the revised version on the Website. Therefore, you should periodically verify the date of this Privacy Policy to ensure that you are familiar with the most up-to-date version, as the most up-to-date version will govern with respect to your use of the Website.
Information We Collect
When you use the Services, Traction Rec may collect three types of information:
(1) Personal Data
Personal Data is any information directly or indirectly relating to an identified or identifiable individual, such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that individual (“Personal Data”).
(2) Aggregate Information
Aggregate Information is information about your activities on or in connection with the Website that typically cannot be used to identify, locate, or contact you (“Aggregate Information”). For example, Aggregate Information includes information regarding the frequency of use of the Website and browser types used to access the Website.
(3) Cookies, etc.
Cookies, beacons, device identifiers, or similar technologies (referred to for convenience as “Cookies”) are small pieces of data placed on your device that your web browser or device uses to access the Website and that permit Traction Rec to track your activity on the Website. We obtain information from Cookies when you visit the Website. You may turn off cookies in your browser or device settings, but this may limit functionality of the Website. Cookies help analyze usage and provide certain functionality. Cookies don’t contain Personal Data and for that reason, we treat Cookies in the same manner as we treat Aggregate Information. If Cookies do contain Personal Data, such Personal Data will only be used or disclosed in the same manner as other Personal Data pursuant to this Privacy Policy. Cookies cannot be used as a malicious tool.

(4) to provide relevant marketing and other information to you, but only if, and to the extent that, you have consented to us providing such marketing and other information to you in accordance with applicable laws. In such a case, we will provide an easy link to permit you to “opt-out” of receiving future marketing communications.
In rare cases, Traction Rec may be required, or may, acting in good faith, believe it is required, to share certain information with legal authorities. In such a case, Traction Rec will provide only the minimum amount of information required and, unless prohibited by law, Traction Rec will notify you of the Personal Data it has provided. Such cases include:
(1) if required by law;
(2) to protect or defend itself, you, or others against legal liability or immediate danger; and
(3) to investigate a possible crime, such as fraud or identity theft.
Traction Rec may share Personal Data with third party service providers as Traction Rec deems necessary for such third party service providers to perform their duties required for the Website to function. For example, the Website may utilize hosting providers. Such third party service providers are not authorized to retain, share, store or use Personal Data for any purposes other than to provide the services for which they have been retained to provide.
Traction Rec does not sell or otherwise share Personal Data with unrelated third parties.
Personal Data may be transferred to Traction Rec's affiliates or as part of a sale of substantially all of the assets of Traction Rec. In such a case, each such party will be required to hold Personal Data and not disclose Personal Data except in accordance with terms at least as restrictive as those contained in this Privacy Policy.

(5) for other legitimate business purposes.
Traction Rec may share Aggregate Information with its affiliates and certain third parties, such as investors, potential investors, and third party service providers we use to provide and facilitate the Website.
Aggregate Information is anonymized and does not have the capacity to be used to identify an individual. In other words, Traction Rec may share this information but no Personal Data will be disclosed to third parties.

Security and Data Protection

Such measures include internal reviews of Traction Rec’s data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where Personal Data is stored.
Traction Rec restricts access to Personal Data to its employees, service providers, and agents who need to know such information in order to operate, develop or improve the Website. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and are required to treat such Personal Data confidentially and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Data Processing and GDPR
Traction Rec is both the data processor and the data controller for your Personal Data. This means that Traction Rec performs operations on Personal Data and controls your Personal Data.
