Additional Terms

Types of Information Collected

In order to better provide you with our numerous services, Control Plane collects two types of information about our users - Personally Identifiable Information and Non-Personally Identifiable Information. Our primary goal in collecting information from you is to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience while using our Platform. Personally Identifiable Information - This refers to information that lets Us know the specifics of who you are. When you engage in certain activities with the Platform, such as registering for an account, ordering a product or service, or sending the Company feedback, Control Plane may ask you to provide certain information about yourself or your company by filling out and submitting an online form. It is completely optional for you to elect to engage in these activities, however, We may ask that you provide Control Plane personal information, such as your first and last name, mailing address (including zip code), email address, and other personal identifying information. Depending upon the activity, some of the information We ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity. Non-Personally Identifiable Information - This refers to information that does not by itself identify a specific individual. Control Plane gathers certain information about you based upon how you interact with the Platform in several ways. This information is compiled and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis. This information may include the Uniform Resource Locator("URL") that you just came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address. A URL is the global address of documents and other resources on the World Wide Web. An IP address is an identifier for a computer or device on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol ("TCP/IP") network, such as the World Wide Web. Networks like the Web use the TCP/IP protocol to route information based on the IP address of the destination. In other words, an IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the web, allowing web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers require IP addresses in order for users to communicate on the internet.

Collection Methods and Use of Information

Control Plane does not collect any Personally Identifiable Information about you unless you voluntarily provide it to Us. You provide certain Personally Identifiable Information to Us when you (a) register an account for our services and register your email address with Control Plane; (b) sign up for special offers from selected third parties; (c) send email messages, submit forms or transmit other information by telephone or letter; or (d) submit your credit card or other payment information when ordering and purchasing products and services. We may also collect information from you at other times that state that such information is being collected. We will primarily use your Personally Identifiable Information to provide our services to you, as required by our agreements with you. We will also use Personally Identifiable Information to enhance the operation of our Platform, fill orders, improve our marketing and promotional efforts, statistically analyze Platform use, improve our product and service offerings, and customize our Platform’s interfaces, layout, and services. We may use Personally Identifiable Information to deliver information to you and to contact you regarding administrative notices. We may also use Personally Identifiable Information to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our agreements with you, including our Platform Terms of Use, and this Private Policy.

Release of Information

Control Plane does not sell, trade, or rent your Personally Identifiable Information to others. We provide some of our services through contractual arrangements with affiliates, service providers, partners and other third parties. Control Plane and our service partners use your Personally Identifiable Information to operate our products and to deliver their services. For example, Control Plane must release your credit card information to the card-issuing bank or servicer to confirm payment for products and services purchased from the Company; and provide order information to third parties that help Control Plane provide customer service. Control Plane will encourage our service partners to adopt and post privacy policies. However, the use of your Personally Identifiable Information by our service partners is governed by the privacy policies of those service partners and is not subject to our control. Occasionally We may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide Personally Identifiable Information to the appropriate governmental authorities. Control Plane will disclose Personally Identifiable Information upon receipt of a court order, subpoena, or to cooperate with a law enforcement investigation. Control Plane fully cooperates with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who use our services for illegal activities. Control Plane reserves the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that We in good faith believe to be unlawful.
