Additional Information for California

Residents of California: This supplemental section of Leaseology’s Privacy Statement is directed at and applies to a limited subset of individuals who interact with Leaseology, who are verifiable residents of the state of California, and who are not otherwise exempted from the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Leaseology is largely not subject to the requirements of the CCPA given the nature of our business (i.e., primarily business-to-business transactions as described below).

Your California Consumer Privacy Rights

If you are a resident of California, who is neither (a) an employee, owner, director, officer, or contractor of an organization (i.e., company, sole proprietorship, non-profit, or government agency) whose communications or transactions with us occur solely within the context of us conducting due diligence regarding, or providing or receiving a product or service to or from your organization), or (b) a job applicant, you have the following specific additional privacy rights under the law:

Right to request access to personal information. California residents have the right to request that we disclose to them the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about them. Upon submission and our receipt of a verifiable consumer request, and not more than twice in a 12-month period, we are required to provide such information directly to California consumers (if it is not already provided here or in another notice).

Right to request deletion of personal information. California residents have the right to request that we delete any personal information about them which we collected from them. Our obligation to delete personal information is limited by the law, and we are not required or able to comply with requests in all instances; for example, if it is necessary for us to maintain personal information in order to complete a transaction with the consumer, detect or protect against security incidents or other illegal or deceptive activity, exercise our free speech or other rights provided by law or protect the lawful rights of another consumer, comply with other legal obligations, or enable internal uses of the personal information in a lawful manner compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information or would expect it to be used based on their relationship with us. For the full list of exceptions, see Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.105.

Right to request disclosure of what personal information we process, the source of it, the business or commercial purpose for processing it, and with whom (e.g., service providers) we share it. California residents have a right to request that we disclose to them (if we have not already in this or another notice): the categories of personal information collected about them, the categories of sources from which it was collected, the business or commercial purpose for collecting it, the categories of third parties (e.g., service providers) with whom we share it, and the specific pieces of personal information collected about them. A large portion of that information is provided here in this Privacy Statement, and we may direct you back here to make note of that information. It should also be noted that the disclosure right related to specific pieces of personal information is not absolute, and it is our responsibility to protect that sort of information from unauthorized disclosures. Please refer to the sections below on How to Submit and What to Expect for more information about the process.

Right to know that we do not “sell” personal information. We have not sold (neither under the ordinary meaning of the term “sale,” nor under the CCPA’s definition of “sale”) consumers’ personal information in the preceding 12 months.

How to Submit a Request to Exercise your CCPA Rights

If you are a consumer and resident of California who is not a job applicant or individual involved in business-to-business communications and transactions with Leaseology (as described in the Your California Consumer Privacy Rights section above), and you wish to exercise one of your CCPA rights, please send an email to info@leaseologyinc.com and include your name, your specific request, and a preferred contact method (e.g., email or mail) for us to follow up with you.

You may call 1-888-457-3256 (toll-free) and ask to be connected with Derk Beal, Leaseology’s CEO. Ultimately though, we will instruct and require you to submit your request in writing, for us to keep appropriate records, and because the law requires us to respond to you in writing. Please start by contacting us at info@leaseologyinc.com to expedite the process.

What to Expect When you Submit a Request to Us

We are a professional services firm, dealing almost exclusively with other companies, as opposed to directly with consumers as that term is usually understood, in business-to-business transactions; and the protection of our clients’ information (past, present, and future) is paramount to our corporate values and our privacy program.

We take data security, in addition to privacy, very seriously, and California law is clear on the need for businesses to protect all consumers from fraudulent requests made by someone other than the actual individual. We mention this to prepare you for the fact that if you request from us specific pieces of personal information collected about you, we will do whatever is reasonably necessary (as the law allows and requires) to verify that you are who you say you are; and as such, you should expect a thorough and personalized vetting process from us to ensure that we do not provide one individual’s personal information to an imposter. The process may take 45 days (or longer when reasonably necessary) depending on the request, and consistent with our obligations under the law.

Personal Information We Collect About Consumers

We have collected the below categories of personal information about consumers in the past 12 months.

In the table below, we have used the CCPA categories of Personal Information and provided basic explanations in plain English for each of those categories. Our responses are divided below into the three broad categories of individuals (or “consumers”) with whom we work every day, and to whom this Privacy Statement applies: (1) leads (a/k/a potential clients/customers), (2) clients/customers, and (3) job applicants.

Not everything below will apply to you, because we have different relationships with different individuals. Our Privacy Statement should be read and understood in the reasonable context of your particular relationship with Leaseology.

Categories of personal information

A. Identifiers such as a real name, alias, postal address, unique personal identifier, online identifier, Internet Protocol address, email address, account name, social security number, driver’s license number, passport number, or other similar identifiers.	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? Yes. We collect identifying information about leads who interact with us online, for example, (a) online or IP identifiers or email addresses for potential clients and customers who interact with us online, and (b) names and addresses for organization contacts at potential client organizations. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Yes. We know the identities of our clients and customers and maintain interest and transactional records that would be expected of a professional services firm with business clients and customers. We also receive and process personal information from or on behalf of our clients and customers (about their own customers, clients, employees, market research participants, etc.) when we perform services for them and otherwise act as a service provider to them. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? Yes. We know the identities of those who apply for employment with Leaseology. This is the only group that we are likely to collect some of the more sensitive categories of identifiers from (in order to screen and properly identify them in accordance with employment law), such as social security number, driver’s license number, or similar identifiers.
B. Any categories of personal information described in subdivision (e) of Section 1798.80 (i.e., any information that identifies, relates to, describes, or is capable of being associated with, a particular individual, including, but not limited to, his or her name, signature, social security number, physical characteristics or description, address, telephone number, passport number, driver’s license or state identification card number, insurance policy number, education, employment, employment history, bank account number, credit card number, debit card number, or any other financial information, medical information, or health insurance information)	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? Yes. Same as above. We collect what you would expect us to collect in the context of your relationship with Leaseology, even though we do not collect all of the information listed in this category for everyone. . Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Yes. Same as above. We collect what you would expect us to collect in the context of your relationship with Leaseology, even though we do not collect all of the information listed in this category for everyone. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? Yes. Same as above. We collect what you would expect us to collect in the context of your relationship with Leaseology, even though we do not collect all of the information listed in this category for everyone.
C. Characteristics of protected classifications under California or federal law (subject to change under the law, but for example: race, color, sex, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, age, religion, national origin, disability, citizenship status, and genetic information).	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? No. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? No. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? Maybe. This information may be passively collected if for example a job applicant discloses it in an employment application (e.g., a Leaseology job applicant states or implies their race, sex, sexual orientation, religion, or other protected characteristic by listing an affiliation that implies inclusion in a protected classification on their resume or application). Leaseology does not actively collect this information, unless and until it is part of the equal employment opportunity data recordkeeping process.
D. Commercial information, including records of personal property, products or services purchased, obtained, or considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies.	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? Yes. We may collect this information about leads in order to develop new business with organizations and individuals who may be interested in or have expressed an interest in Leaseology. We are primarily a business-to-business organization, and as such we are concerned with organizational habits and needs, far more than individual consumer habits and needs. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Yes. We collect and retain this information about organizational clients and customers because it helps us provide tailored goods and services. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? No.
E. Biometric information.	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? No. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Probably not. However, it is possible within the reasonable context of our relationship with clients that as a professional services firm, Leaseology may be providing consulting or other services that relate to the client’s own biometric information systems, and may result in Leaseology having tertiary access to such information that belongs to the client. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? No.
F. Internet or other electronic network activity information, including, but not limited to, browsing history, search history, and information regarding a consumer’s interaction with an Internet website, application, or advertisement.	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? Yes. Leaseology may have information regarding a lead’s interaction with an Internet website (e.g., Leaseology’s or other websites), application (e.g., Leaseology’s SaaS offerings), or advertisement (e.g., Leaseology’s advertisements). We may collect information related to internet activity attributable to other organizations (i.e., activity attributable to another organization’s known IP addresses for example, rather than individual or household activity) to inform our marketing strategies. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Yes. Leaseology may have information regarding a client or customer’s interaction with an Internet website (e.g., Leaseology’s or other websites), application (e.g., Leaseology’s SaaS offerings), or advertisement (e.g., Leaseology’s advertisements). We may collect information related to internet activity attributable to other organizations (i.e., activity attributable to another organization’s known IP addresses for example, rather than individual or household activity) to inform our marketing strategies. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? Yes. Leaseology may have information regarding an individual job applicant’s interaction with an Internet website (e.g., Leaseology’s recruiting website), application (e.g., Leaseology’s recruitment portal), or advertisement (e.g., Leaseology’s job postings).
G. Geolocation data.	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? Maybe. Leaseology may know the location from where your computer or device is accessing our website in order to provide local content and offerings and to prevent fraud or misuse of our electronic properties. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Maybe. Leaseology may know the location from where your computer or device is accessing our website in order to provide local content and offerings and to prevent fraud or misuse of our electronic properties. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? Maybe. Leaseology may know the location from where your computer or device is accessing our website in order to provide local content and offerings and to prevent fraud or misuse of our electronic properties.
H. Audio, electronic, visual, thermal, olfactory, or similar information.	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? Not much, and only what you would expect. For example, physical security, including CCTV at physical Leaseology office locations may collect audio, electronic, and visual information for a time on security systems, but would be used for security purposes and then overwritten after a set period of time. We electronically monitor the use of our website, but both the technology and our policy prohibit the capturing of personal information in such monitoring and the attribution of website activity to individuals.

I. Professional or employment-related information.	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? Yes. Because we are a professional services firm serving other business organizations, and some individuals directly, we do collect professional and employment-related information as part of the lead generation or business development process, as you would expect. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Yes. Because we are a professional services firm serving other business organizations, and some individuals directly, we do collect professional and employment-related information as part of the client management process, client service process (e.g., market research and other services provided to or on behalf of other businesses), and additional business development, as you would expect. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? Yes. Most job applicants provide this information on their application or we otherwise receive it (e.g., from recruiters or public professional networking and job sites) during the recruiting process.
J. Education information, defined as information that is not publicly available personally identifiable information as defined in the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U.S.C. Sec. 1232g; 34 C.F.R. Part 99).	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? No. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Usually not. However, in the context of our TeacherReady Online Certification program we may process education information. And as with certain other categories, it is possible within the reasonable context of our relationship with clients that as a professional services firm, Leaseology may be providing consulting or other services that relate to the client’s own education information systems, and may result in Leaseology having tertiary access to such information that belongs to the client. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? Yes, as part of the ordinary job applicant background check process, we may collect education information, such as degree confirmations or degree transcripts.
K. Inferences drawn from any of the information identified in this subdivision to create a profile about a consumer reflecting the consumer’s preferences, characteristics, psychological trends, predispositions, behavior, attitudes, intelligence, abilities, and aptitudes.	Does Leaseology Collect that for Leads? Not really at the consumer level, as much as the organization-level. Leaseology’s marketing efforts are principally focused on figuring out what organizations need and then providing relevant professional services to those organizations (as opposed to targeting and profiling consumers individually to influence their consumer purchases). That means that we are profiling potential client organizations. However, a necessary part of marketing and business development usually includes reaching out to individuals who represent their organizations. In order to do that we have marketing and business development operations and Customer Resource Management systems with information contained therein that you would expect from a B2B professional services firm. Does Leaseology Collect that for Clients/Customers? Not really at the consumer level, as much as the organization-level. Leaseology’s marketing efforts are principally focused on figuring out what organizations need and then providing relevant professional services to those organizations (as opposed to targeting and profiling consumers individually to influence their consumer purchases). That means that we are profiling potential client organizations.

In order to do that we have marketing and business development operations and Customer Resource Management systems with information contained therein that you would expect from a B2B professional services firm. Does Leaseology Collect that for Job Applicants? Not really. We don’t collect inferences to create a profile, but, as is the case with every organization, we do have a recruitment file for job applicants, and we are trying to determine whether any particular applicant is a good fit for Leaseology.

Regarding any of the above categories of personal information that we process, Leaseology may disclose that information for a business purpose. Leaseology uses service providers, like all organizations. And those service providers may process Personal Information for operational purposes – such as detecting or protecting against security incidents, auditing, and performing services on behalf of Leaseology. For personal information that belongs to our clients, if the clients allow us to use “subcontractors,” then we may be disclosing personal information to those subcontractors which are acting as service providers, as part of our contractual performance on behalf of clients.

California Do Not Track Disclosures

When you visit a website (such as Leaseology’s website), your browser automatically shares certain information with that website, such as your IP address and other device information, which may also be considered Personal Data under applicable laws. Some of this data may also be sent to service providers (for example: advertisers, website analytic companies, etc.) that provide content on the website. Such sharing may allow the website and/or content providers to track you over time and across multiple websites. At this time, Leaseology’s website does not respond to Do Not Track beacons sent by browser plugins as there is not yet a common agreement about how to interpret Do Not Track signals from browsers. Please visit our Cookie Policy to learn even more about cookies and similar technologies.

Additional Information for Europe

Residents of the United Kingdom: This supplemental section of Leaseology’s Privacy Statement is directed at and applies to individuals located in the European Union (“EU”), United Kingdom (“UK”), Switzerland, or where applicable EU data protection laws (e.g., the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”)) applies.

International Transfers of Your Personal Data

By using the website or providing Personal Data to Leaseology, your Personal Data may be transferred to the United States, where Leaseology is headquartered, or to other Leaseology locations where we carry out our support activities. Your country’s laws governing data collection and use may differ from those in the United States or other Leaseology locations. For example, the data protection laws of the United States, India, and most other countries have not been found by the European Commission to provide the same level of protection as EU data protection law. Some of the entities with whom we share your Personal Data are also located in countries whose laws have not been deemed by the European Commission to provide the same level of protection to your Personal Data. Only a small number of countries have been officially recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection. Transfers to Leaseology entities and others located in countries outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”), UK, or Switzerland take place on the basis of an adequacy finding by the relevant authority (i.e., European Commission, Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (“FDPIC”), UK Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”) or other competent supervisory authority), EU Standard Contractual Clauses (or other standard contractual clauses approved by a competent supervisory authority), or other appropriate GDPR or applicable law derogations. Please contact info@leaseologyinc.com if you want to receive further information.

EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield

Special 2020 Privacy Shield Notice: Please note that with respect to Personal Data received from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland in reliance on Leaseology’s Privacy Shield certification prior to July 2020, and received from Switzerland prior to September 2020, Leaseology continues to process such Personal Data (previously transferred) in accordance with the Privacy Shield Principles, as the Privacy Shield framework requires. However, the European Commission’s EU-U.S. Privacy Shield adequacy decision was invalidated by the Court of Justice of the European Union in July 2020, and the Swiss-U.S. adequacy decision was revoked by the Swiss FDPIC in September 2020; and as such, Leaseology no longer relies on its Privacy Shield certification for current and future transfers of Personal Data from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland to the U.S. As noted above, we rely on other appropriate GDPR Art. 46 and 49, UK Data Protection Act Ch. 5, or Swiss Federal Data Protection Act Art. 6 provisions to validate transfers of Personal Data from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland to third countries.

Leaseology complies with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of Personal Data transferred from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland to the United States prior to July 2020 with regard to the EEA and UK, and September 2020 with regard to Switzerland to the United States. Leaseology is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.

When we receive written complaints submitted as instructed herein, we will follow up with the person who made the claim. If you have a complaint or concern, please contact us and we will attempt to resolve it.

Other cookies used on the Site remain on your device once you have left the Site (though how long will depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie). These are often called persistent cookies. Persistent cookies are typically used on the Site to help it recognize your device when you return to it, and to help us improve the structure of the Site by compiling anonymous, aggregated statistics that allow us to understand how users use the Site.

The cookies used by the Site can be grouped into three categories.

Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of the Site. They allow our web servers to respond to your actions on the Site and whilst browsing it. The Site will not work for you without these cookies.

Analytical cookies. These cookies allow us to see how visitors move around the Site when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way the Site works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily, and also to analyze the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

Functionality cookies. These are used to recognize you when you return to the Site in order to remember your preferences, and also allow us to provide certain aspects of the Site’s functionality.

Here’s a list of the [main] cookies we use on the Site, and what we use them for. We may, from time to time, update or modify our cookies. If we do, we will update this list.

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. Google Analytics uses cookies to analyse your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website
(including your IP address) is transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the United States of America. Google use this information to assess your use of the website, providing reports on website activity for website operators and other
website activity and internet related services. Google may transfer this information to third parties, if required by law
or if third parties process the information on behalf of Google. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. utma, utmb, utmc and umtz are the four main cookies set by the Google Analytics service which enable website owners to track visitor behaviour and measure site performance.

__utma : This cookie lasts for 2 years by default and distinguishes between users and sessions. It is used to calculate new and returning visitor statistics. The cookie is updated every time data is sent to Google Analytics. The lifespan of the cookie can be customised by website owners.

__utma is a persistent cookie and is deleted 2 years after you leave the Site.

__utmb : This cookie determines new sessions and visits and expires after 30 minutes. The cookie is updated every time data is sent to Google Analytics. Any activity by a user within the 30 minute life span will count as a single visit, even if the user leaves and then returns to the site. A return after 30 minutes will count as a new visit, but a returning visitor.

__utmb is a persistent cookie and is deleted 30 minutes after you leave the Site.

__utmc : This cookie is not used in most sites but is set to enable interoperability with the older version of Google Analytics code known as Urchin. In older versions this was used in combination with the __utmb cookie to identify new sessions/visits for returning visitors. When used by Google Analytics this is always a session cookie which is destroyed when the user closes their browser. Where it is seen as a persistent cookie it is therefore likely to be a different technology setting the cookie.

__utmc is a session cookie.

__utmz : This cookie tracks where visitors have come to the Leaseology site, ie directly browsing to the site, using a
search engine (tracks the search term used, etc.), as well as the geographical location of the visitor. It allows Google
Analytics to report on how to “credit” a visit or successful ecommerce transaction.

__utmz is a persistent cookie and it expires 6 months from the time of creation.

Additionally there is also a cookie called “F5” which comes from the load balancer, to ensure that the visitor’s session is tied to the web server they initially get directed to in the load balancer rotation.
