Privacy Statement
At Ecotrak, our core mission is to help teams protect data on the internet. As a result, our goal is to set a high standard for protecting the privacy of your information. We want to be clear about how we collect, use, protect, and share your information, including your personal information, and the rights and choices you have about the ways in which you can help us protect your privacy.
This Privacy Statement explains:
What information we collect and why we collect it.
How we use that information and when we disclose it.
Your rights regarding that information, including how to access and update your information.
The steps we take to protect your information.
Scope: This Privacy Statement applies to the information that we obtain through your use of Ecotrak products and services, including our website (https://www.Ecotrak.com), our platforms, social media, communications, and web-based tools (collectively, our “Services”).
This Privacy Statement does not apply to personal information arising from Ecotrak’s employment-related activities. Except to the extent that a third party provides services on our behalf (such as a SaaS vendor), this Privacy Statement also does not apply to the practices of third parties to which we may link or otherwise refer you, such as consultants, penetration testing firms, audit firms, and other vendors.
Geography: Ecotrak is a U.S. based company that offers our Services to domestic and international business customers. As a result, information that we collect, including personal information, may be transferred to our U.S. offices to permit us to comply with our legal and contractual obligations, to provide information and services to prospective and current clients, and to perform related business activities. In addition, we may provide information to third-party service providers in the U.S. and in other countries to the extent necessary to support Ecotrak’s business activities, and we may access personal information collected by our customers to support the Services that we provide to our customers. Thus, personal information may be transferred to and stored on servers located in the United States and in countries different from the country in which that information was initially collected. Similarly, information we collect may be accessed by Ecotrak and our third-party service providers and business partners from countries other than the ones in which the information is stored.
If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Statement or about our privacy or data security practices, please contact us at legal@Ecotrakfm.com.

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies: We use various technologies to collect information, including cookies that we save to your computer or mobile device. Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive or in device memory. We use cookies to improve and customize our Services and your experience; to allow you to access and use the Services without re-entering your username or password; and to count visits and understand which areas and features of the Services are most popular. We may also associate the information we store in cookies with personal information you submit while on our Services. You can instruct your browser, by changing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from websites you visit. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all aspects of our Services.

Information that We Collect from Other Sources
Information from third parties: We may obtain information, including personal information, from our business partners and service providers. This information includes, but is not limited to, information that we receive from our direct marketing providers, product referrals, and other interactions. We also may combine information we receive from third parties with other information we collect from you through our Services as described in this Privacy Statement. If we use this information to provide you with opportunities that we think may be of interest to you, you will have the ability to inform us that you do not wish to receive such offers, and you may unsubscribe from our marketing and other email communications by clicking on the link in the email, sending an e-mail to legal@Ecotrakfm.com, or accessing your user account and changing your distribution preferences.
Information provided by other individuals: While using our Services, individuals may provide information about another individual, or an authorized user (such as an account administrator) creating an account on your behalf may provide information about You. When one individual provides us with information (including personal information) about another individual, we assume that the individual has permission and authority to do so and to consent on behalf of that individual to the collection and use of personal information as described in this Privacy Statement. Please contact us immediately at legal@Ecotrakfm.com if you become aware of an individual providing us with personal information about another individual without being authorized to do so, and we will act consistently with this Privacy Statement.
Information that We Receive About You From Our Customers
While using our Services, our customers may create, input, submit, post, upload, transmit, or store personal information that they have collected from individuals. During the course of our business relationship, we may need to access a customer’s account and the information it contains to provide support for our Services.
Our customers and prospective customers are responsible for complying with all applicable federal, state, local, and international laws and regulations regarding notice, disclosure, consent, and transfer of personal information, prior to providing that personal information to Ecotrak.
In addition, our customers and prospective customers are also responsible for identifying, in the Services agreement or in a related document (such as a HIPAA business associate agreement or GDPR data protection agreement), any additional requirements for protecting, accessing, and handling personal information in a particular matter that exceeds the reasonable, risk-based administrative, technical, and physical safeguards that Ecotrak would otherwise routinely implement, or that are inconsistent with the collection and use practices identified in this Privacy Statement.
Unlike the other collections of information described in this section, our agreements with customers include specific protections and limitations regarding our access to and use of personal information collected by customers, and we do not access, use, copy, retain, or aggregate that customer data except as stated in those agreements.

We will notify you of such a change in ownership or transfer of assets by posting a notice on our website.
Sharing aggregate, anonymized, deidentified, or otherwise non-personal data: We may share aggregate, anonymized deidentified, or otherwise non-personal information that does not directly or indirectly identify you and that cannot, with reasonable effort, be used to reidentify you in order to improve the overall experience of our Services. Such aggregated, anonymized, deidentified, or otherwise not re-identifiable information is not personal information within the scope of this Privacy Statement.

You may decline to share certain personal information with us, in which case we may not be able to provide to you some of the features and functionality of our Services or fulfill your requests.

Security
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or data storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. That said, we certainly try very hard, employing a variety of organizational, technical and administrative measures to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk associated with the personal information you trust us with.
Please see our Security Policy for more details.
Ecotrak protects personal information under its control, and requires its service providers to also protect against, accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of or access to, personal data transmitted, stored, or otherwise processed.

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to accomplish the business purpose for which it was collected or to comply with our legal and contractual obligations.
