We may collect information from or about the computers, phones or other devices where you install or access the Clever Eli Service, including but not limited to device locations (including specific geographic locations), such as through GPS, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi signals. We may associate or link the information we collect from your different devices, which helps us to provide the Clever Eli Service consistently across your devices.

How do we use the information we collect?

Clever Eli will use the information that we collect to provide, develop, improve and monetise the Clever Eli Service. Examples of such use include:

  • communicating with users regarding their use of the Clever Eli Service;
  • enhancing and promoting the security, integrity and safety of the Clever Eli Service for you and other users;
  • (where able) operating, maintaining and improving the systems and infrastructure that provide the Clever Eli Service. For example, we may use crash logs from your use of the Clever Eli Service to identify and fix bugs;

How is this information shared?

We may share the information we collect in the following circumstances:

  • to the community when you choose to share and communicate through the Clever Eli Service;
  • to third-party service providers who may assist in providing the Clever Eli Service or part of the Clever Eli Service;
  • to third-party apps, websites or other services that you can connect to through the Clever Eli Service;
  • in connection with a substantial corporate transaction, such as the sale of our Clever Eli Service, a merger, consolidation, asset sale or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy or insolvency, or if the ownership or control of all or part of the Clever Eli Service or their assets changes, we may transfer your information to the new owner;
  • to help verify accounts and activity, and to promote safety and security on and off the Clever Eli Service, such as by investigating suspicious activity or breaches of our terms or policies; and
  • as otherwise directed or authorised by you.

We may also share the information that we collect with third-party partners and customers who help us to provide and improve the Clever Eli Service. We will not share information that personally identifies you (personally identifiable information is information such as a name or email address that can by itself be used to contact you or identify who you are) unless you give us permission.

We may access, preserve and share your information in response to a legal request (e.g. a court order or subpoena) if we have a good-faith belief that the law requires us to do so. This may include responding to legal requests when we have a good-faith belief that the response is required by law in that jurisdiction, affects users in that jurisdiction and is consistent with internationally recognised standards. We may also access, preserve and share information when we have a good-faith belief that it is necessary to detect, prevent and address fraud and other illegal activity; to protect ourselves, you and others, including as part of investigations; or to prevent death or imminent bodily harm. For example, we may provide information to third-party partners about the reliability of your account to prevent fraud and abuse on and off the Clever Eli Service. Information we receive about you may be accessed, processed and retained for an extended period of time when it is the subject of a legal request or obligation, governmental investigation or investigations concerning possible breaches of our terms or policies, or otherwise to prevent harm. We also may retain information from accounts disabled for breaches of our terms for at least a year to prevent repeat abuse or other breaches of our terms.

We may also disclose information that has been aggregated or that otherwise does not personally identify you to third parties and affiliates who may, amongst other purposes, use it for analytics, trends and analysis to improve and provide the Clever Eli Service.

What is our legal basis for processing data?

We collect, use and share the data that we have in the ways described above:

  • as necessary to fulfil our terms and conditions;
  • as necessary to comply with our legal obligations; and
  • as necessary for our (or others’) legitimate interests, including our interests in providing an innovative, personalised, safe and profitable service to our users and partners, unless those interests are overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms that require protection of personal data.

How can you exercise your rights provided under the GDPR?

Under the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to access, rectify, port and delete your data, as well as the right to restrict and object to certain processing of your data. This includes:

  • where you have agreed to direct marketing, the right to object to our processing of your data for that purpose, which you can exercise by using the “unsubscribe” link in such marketing communications; and
  • the right to object to our processing of your data where we are pursuing our legitimate interests or those of a third party, which you can exercise by requesting us to delete your account at any time.

Data retention, account deactivation and deletion

We store data until it is no longer necessary to provide the Clever Eli Service or until your account is deleted – whichever comes first. This is a case-by-case determination that depends on things such as the nature of the data, why it is collected and processed, and relevant legal or operational retention needs.

You can delete your account at any time. When you delete your account, we delete things you have posted. If you do not want to delete your account, but want to temporarily stop using Clever Eli, we may offer you the choice to deactivate your account instead. It may take some time to delete data stored in backup systems. Your information isn’t accessible on Clever Eli during this time.

How do you access and modify the information we hold about you?

You can find tools for managing, accessing and porting your data in your Clever Eli general account settings.

You access, correct or delete information that you have uploaded to the Clever Eli Service using the tools within the Clever Eli Service provided by us. Changes that you make to your information on the Clever Eli Service take immediate effect on your community, but data will be retained by Clever Eli in backup copies for a commercially reasonable amount of time.

Safety and security

We use the information that we have to help verify accounts and activity and to promote safety and security on and off the Clever Eli Service, such as by investigating suspicious activity or breaches of our terms or policies. Some aspects of the Clever Eli Service may contain links to content maintained by third parties that we do not control. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties, and we recommend that you view the privacy policies of each website that you visit.

How our global services operate

For example, information collected within the European Economic Area (“EEA”) may be transferred to countries outside of the EEA for the purposes described in this policy.

How will we notify you of changes to this policy?

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we update the Privacy Policy, we will provide appropriate notice to you and post the new Privacy Policy.
