Privacy Policy

Thank you for using eDiscovery Collect by GoldFynch for your data collection needs. This Policy explains what information we collect, how we collect it, and why we collect information when you use the System. We take your privacy extremely seriously, and we never sell lists or email addresses.

This Policy is effective from June 16th, 2021 (the “Effective Date”).

1. Introduction

Allow us to introduce ourselves and get a few definitions out of the way, so that this policy is clear and easy to understand. Mazira, LLC, dba GoldFynch, dba GoldFynch.com, dba ediscoverycollect.com, the provider (“Provider”) of the “eDiscovery Collect by GoldFynch” service (“Service”), takes the privacy of users seriously. We developed this privacy policy (“Policy”) to describe how Personal Information is collected, used, disclosed, and protected by Provider when you visit or interact with the Website(s) of the Service, and any part of the System. This Policy does not apply to any other website, product, or service operated by Provider, or to any of our offline activities. When we say “you” or “User,” we are referring to the person or entity that chooses to interact with or make use of the Services. Please refer to the Terms of Service for the meaning of any capitalized terms that are not defined in this Policy.

2. Changes and Updates to this Policy

We may change this Policy from time to time. If there are material changes to this Policy, we will notify you by email (sent to the e-mail address used while signing up to use the Service) or by means of a notice on this Website. If we make any material changes to this Policy, the changes will apply from the updated Effective Date mentioned above. We encourage you to check this Policy whenever you use our Website and services to understand how your Personal Information is used.

We do not treat the information of any User differently from that of any other User. Therefore, if you object to changes we make to this Policy, please inform us; we will in such a case have to terminate your access to System and your Customer Data along with your Personal Information with immediate effect.

3. Scope

This Policy applies to any information that we’ve collected, or will collect, about and/or from you in the course of your usage of the System.

4. Your Information

We gather information from you in various ways when you use the Website and services. The information collected consists of (i) Personal Information, (ii) imported information from your email and cloud storage accounts, and aggregate data. As used in this Policy, the term “Personal Information” means information that specifically identifies an individual (such as name, e-mail address, telephone number, address, credit card number, and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged-in users), and demographic and other information when directly linked to information that can identify an individual.

5. Information You Provide to Us

When you use the System, consult with our customer service team, send us an email, or communicate with us in any way, you’re giving us information that we collect. That information may include (but is not limited to) your and your Users’ IP address, name, physical address, email address, phone number, credit card information, operating system, as well as details like gender, occupation, location, birth date, purchase history, and other demographic information. Once you grant us permission, our Service will access your email or cloud storage accounts and import the information that you instruct it to in order to facilitate its download; it only reads information and will not change any data. By giving us this information, you consent to your information being collected, used, disclosed, transferred to the United States and stored by us, as described in our Terms of Use and this Policy.

The following are examples of the sort of information we may collect from you.

  • Registration information — When you create a Collection with us, we collect your email address, and other information used to authenticate your identity and access your Collection(s) and data.
  • Import/Attachment information — When you use the System to import and manage documents, emails, images and other electronic files, we collect and keep some of the information about a file (e.g. file type, size, filename, date).
  • Payment information — If you make a payment to avail of our services, we, or our payment-processing vendor, collect your credit card information and billing address insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the User’s interaction with Provider.
  • Access information —We gather data of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the System, to track users’ movements around the site, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. Ordinarily, this is non-personally-identifying information. To the extent such information contains or is linked to personally identifiable information, such information will be protected in accordance with this Policy.

6. Cookies, Web Beacons and Tracking

When you use the System, we may store “cookies,” “tags,” or “scripts,” which is a small amount of data sent from a website to your computer and stored on your computer. We and our analytics service providers (like Google) use those cookies to collect information about your visit and your use of our Website or System. You can modify your browser setting to reject our cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie by editing your browser options. However, if a browser is set not to accept cookies or if a user rejects a cookie, some portions of the Website and Service may not function properly. For example, you may not be able to sign in and access your Collections. We may also use cookies and web beacons to collect information regarding your web browsing activities such as the address of the page you are visiting, the address of the referrer page you previously visited, the time and duration for which you view the page, your browsing environment and your display settings.

Among other things, the use of cookies and web beacons enables us to: improve our Website and communications with you by seeing which areas and features are most popular; count the number of computers accessing our Website; personalize and improve your experience; record your preferences: and allow you to visit our Website without re-entering your email and login credentials. Most browsers automatically accept cookies as the default setting.

Third-Party Cookies — Provider uses third parties to track and analyze usage and volume statistical information from individuals who visit the Website. Provider uses this information to serve users better. The use of cookies by our service providers is not covered by this Policy. We do not have access or control over these cookies.

Information from the use of our Mobile Apps: When you access our System through the web browser of your mobile device or through any future mobile app, we may collect information about the type of device and operating system you use. We may ask you if you want to receive push notifications about activity in your Collection(s). If you opt into these notifications and no longer want to receive them, you may turn them off through your operating system. We do not access or track any location-based information from your mobile device unless you have given us permission. We may use mobile analytics software to help us better understand how customers use our application. We may collect information about how often you use the application and other performance data. We don’t collect or link that data with any personally identifiable information.

11. Information Security

We have employed reasonable physical, organizational, and technical safeguards to protect information we collect from you to prevent its loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. In addition, highly confidential personal information such as credit card number and password that we request from you on our Website is protected with encryption, such as Secured Socket Layer (SSL) protocol, during transmission over the internet.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. While we take reasonable efforts to guard Personal Information we knowingly collect directly from you, no security system is impenetrable. It is your responsibility to ensure that you keep all login and user information issued to you by us (“Credentials”) safe and that it is not accessible to unauthorized individuals. Please inform us immediately if your Credentials have been compromised in any manner whatsoever. You will also need to close your browser at the end of a session to protect against unauthorized access. If you have specific needs or obligations regarding any passively-collected Personal Information you choose to include in documents you store on our System, please satisfy yourself that such information is maintained at adequate levels of protection to meet those needs or obligations before you upload it to the System.
