Hi! Welcome to our Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”).
Chances are high that you’re looking for some specific information and to help you get to what you’re looking for quickly we want to provide you with these content links:
This Privacy Policy describes the privacy practices for Rubikloud’s websites (“the Sites”) and our marketing and advertising practices.
Our Recruitment Information Policy (“Recruitment Information Policy”) describes the privacy practices for our job applicant process. You can learn more about career opportunities here.
Our product contracts and terms and conditions documentation describe additional privacy practices for our products and services.
Protecting the privacy and confidentiality of personal information within our possession and control is an important aspect of the way that we conduct our business. We strive to protect and respect the personal information of our customers, business partners, employees, consultants, job applicants, and event registrants in accordance with all applicable laws and have appointed a Privacy Officer to maintain stewardship over our Privacy Policy and practices.
Our Privacy Officer is:
We require certain information to provide our services to you. We collect certain personal information when you access our website, download our content, register for our events, request information, or when you use our products or services. We may also combine information you provide with data we collect automatically (as further described below) and with data we receive from third parties.
The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us, the choices you make and the products and features you use. The personal information we collect can include the following:
Information collected directly from you: In registering with us, downloading content, requesting information, participating in activities on our Sites (such as posting messages in our online forums or entering competitions, contests or giveaways) or otherwise contacting us you may provide us with:
Information collected via automated means:
We may collect Automated Information through the use of cookies (refer to our Cookie Policy), and other technologies. In addition to cookies, such other technologies may include:
The above tracking technologies may be deployed by us or our service providers on our behalf. You can find more information on our third-party service providers in the Data Sharing section of this Policy.
Automated Information includes information such as:
An Internet protocol (“IP”) address is the unique number assigned to your server or Internet Service Provider. We may track such IP addresses for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
In addition, we or our third-party service providers may assign you a unique identifier through automated means in order to match information collected from you through different means or at different times, (including both personal information and Automated Information) and to use such information as described in this Privacy Policy.
Information collected directly by Third Parties:
Our website contains third party sites linked from our websites to other websites, including those of our partners and sponsors, whose information practices may be different from ours. Sometimes these third-party websites might conduct contests or sweepstakes and other activities that are promoted on our websites and visitors are directed away from our websites in order to participate in such activities.
You may also connect to third party services to share your information on and through their social
media platforms, websites, applications, and services through “plug-ins,” widgets, buttons, and other
third-party features on and connected with our websites.
We may also offer ways to share through independent third-party sites, plug-ins and online services. We are not responsible for the activities of these third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies to understand how they use your information. Because your posts and information shared through websites are public and can be seen by others, we caution all users to consider what they post and share online and not to disclose any personal information as part of their posts, even if requested to do so by other posters. We will not be responsible in the event that you disclose personal information in your posts, through our public services or during any other communication with other site users.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the direct data collection or processing activities of any third parties when they are collecting or using data for their own purpose or on behalf of others. Please consult the respective privacy policies and statements of such third parties for more information. A link to these third-party privacy policies has been provided in the Data Sharing section of this Privacy Policy.
We use personal information collected through our Sites for a variety of purposes described in this Privacy Policy and as disclosed to you in connection with our Sites, including:
To administer prize draws and competitions when you elect to participate in competitions
To perform the above functions, we may match information collected from you through different means or at different times and use such information along with information obtained from other sources. We may also aggregate and/or de-identify any information that we collect, such that the information no longer identifies any specific individual.
We do not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with other people or non-affiliated companies, except under the following circumstances:

ZoomInfo [Site Visitor Identification]: https://www.zoominfo.com/business/aboutzoominfo/privacy-policy

Additionally, if we obtain your information in connection with a contest, event, offering or other promotional activity that is jointly offered by us and any third parties we may share your information with our co-sponsor. We may also share your information with a third party service provider who administers the event and/or contest. The third parties we work with for event management may vary depending on the event and/or contest, and we may use introduce new ones at any time. We encourage you to review their Privacy Policies as presented to you directly by these third parties at the time of event entry. The Privacy Policies of our key event partners can be found here:

Protection of personal data
We understand that the security of your personal information is important. We provide reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security controls to protect your personal information throughout our websites.
However, despite our best efforts, no security controls are 100% effective and no company, including us, can fully eliminate or warrant the security risks associated with personal information. To help protect yourself, please use a strong password, do not use the same passwords to access your Rubikloud accounts that you use with other accounts or services, and protect your usernames and passwords to help prevent others from accessing your accounts and services.
Storage and transfers of personal data
Rubikloud is a global company with affiliates, varied business processes, management structures and technical systems that cross borders. Information collected by us or on our behalf may be stored on your computers, on your mobile devices and/or on our servers or the servers of companies we hire to provide services to us. Your personal information may be transferred across national borders because we have servers located worldwide and the companies we hire to help us run our business are located in different countries around the world.
We and our service providers may transfer, access or process your personal information to countries other than the country in which the data was originally collected for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice. These countries include but are not limited to Canada, United States, England, France, Australia, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, and China, and any other country where we, or our service providers, maintain facilities or support centers.
Some countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the information. When we transfer personal information across borders, we consider a variety of requirements that may apply to such transfers.
In compliance with GDPR requirements, we use the following mechanisms to protect the privacy of your data when transferring personal information from the European Economic Area:
Retention of personal data
Personal information we collect may be retained for as long as needed to fulfill legitimate business purposes, including the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, or for a period of time specifically required or allowed by applicable regulations or laws.
Depending on where you live, you may be entitled to certain rights regarding your personal data as detailed below.
Residents of the European Economic Area (EEA)
As a resident of the EEA, you may have some or all of the following rights in relation to how we use your personal information:
If you are a resident of the EEA and you wish to access, change or delete personal information we hold about you, you may send us an e-mail using the privacy e-mail provided in this Policy or writing to us at the mailing address provided here.
If we change or delete your personal information or if you decline to actively share certain personal information with us, we may not be able to provide you with our Services or some of the features and functionality of our Services. Keep in mind, we may reject requests for certain reasons, including if the request is unlawful or if it may infringe on the rights and freedoms of another person. For example, we may not be able to accommodate certain requests to object to the processing of personal information, notably where such requests would not allow us to provide our service to you anymore.
For your protection, we may require proof of identity and verification before we can answer the above requests
Residents of California
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) may provide you with
rights that are in addition to those set forth elsewhere in this Privacy Policy regarding our use of your
personal information. The CCPA Notice applies to “Consumers” as defined by the law.
This section describes your CCPA rights as a California Consumer and explains how to exercise
those rights:
To make a request for access, portability or deletion according to your rights under CCPA, you may send us an e-mail using the privacy e-mail provided in this Policy or writing to us at the mailing address provided here. California Consumers may exercise these rights via an authorized agent who meets the agency requirements of the CCPA. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the personal information relates to you.
Any request you submit to us is subject to an identification and residency verification process (“Verifiable Consumer Request”), which must:
Some personal information we maintain about Consumers is not sufficiently associated with enough personal information about the Consumer for us to be able to verify that it is a particular Consumer’s personal information (e.g., data tied only to a pseudonymous identifier). As required by the CCPA, we do not include that personal information in response to Verifiable Consumer Requests. If we cannot comply with a request, we will explain the reasons in our response.
We will make commercially reasonable efforts to identify Consumer personal information that we collect, process, store, disclose, and otherwise use and to respond to your California Consumer privacy rights requests. We will typically not charge a fee to fully respond to your requests, but we may charge a reasonable fee, or refuse to act upon a request, if your request is excessive, repetitive, unfounded, or overly burdensome.
All other individuals
If you are not a resident of the EEA or California, you may still be able make requests to access, correct and/or delete certain personal information that you provide to us. For your protection, we may require proof and verification of identity before we can answer the above requests.
If you wish to make such a request, you may send us an e-mail using the privacy e-mail provided in this Policy or writing to us at the mailing address provided here. If we change or delete your personal information or if you decline to actively share certain personal information with us, we may not be able to provide to you our services or some of the features and functionality of our services. Once we have verified your identity, we will honor requests as required by law and subject to our business and legal needs to retain your data.
Marketing Opt-Outs
Our marketing emails tell you how to “opt-out” of receiving further marketing emails. If you opt out, we may still send you non-marketing emails. Non-marketing emails include emails about your accounts and our business dealings with you, and, as allowed by applicable law, requests for your participation in surveys. You may also contact us privacy@rubikloud.com at any time to unsubscribe and let us know that you no longer wish to receive further marketing emails.
You may also be able to opt-out of tracking and other marketing related activities performed directly by our third-party service providers. For more information, visit the following:

In addition, when you use our websites, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies from our servers. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our websites. Cookie management tools provided by your browser may not remove Flash cookies. If you delete your cookies, use a different browser, or buy a new computer, you will need to renew your opt-out choices.
While we and others give you certain choices, as further outlined in this Privacy Policy, there are many ways that web browser signals and similar mechanisms can indicate your choice to disable tracking, and we may not be aware of nor honor every mechanism.

By using the Sites, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of our Sites.
