In this Privacy Policy, we, ThinkDeeply, Inc., describe the types of personal data (also known as personally identifiable information or personal information) we collect; how we use, process, or share that information; and what rights you have while we hold that information.

What does it cover?

This Privacy Policy covers your use of ThinkDeeply-branded publicly available websites, including sites located on Thinkdeeply.com, Thinkdeeply.ai as well as Thinkdeep.ly, and any other pages that link to this Privacy Policy (the “Sites”), as well as Account Information and Usage Data (each defined below). This Privacy Policy does not cover any other data submitted through or otherwise made available to the ThinkDeeply Platform and Solutions (also known as ThinkDeeply Hub and ThinkDeeply Industry packs located at marketplace which are subject to the ThinkDeeply terms of service or other written agreement in place between ThinkDeeply and our customers (“Customers”), or any other data collection and processing, including, without limitation, data that we collect offline.

Customers are solely responsible for establishing policies for and ensuring compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, as well as any and all privacy policies, agreements or other obligations relating to such Customers’ use or collection of personal data in connection with the use of our Platform Services by individuals with whom our Customers interact. If you are an individual who interacts with a Customer using our Platform Services or you otherwise believe that a Customer uses our Platform Services to process your personal data, and you contact us regarding this data, you will be directed to contact the applicable Customer for assistance with any requests or questions relating to your personal data, including without limitation any requests to access, amend or erase your personal data.

What information do we collect and how?

We collect information and data from you in two ways. First, we collect information you manually provide to us, including registration information like your name and email address. Second, we collect information automatically from your use of our Sites and Platform Services, including how and when our Sites and Platform Services are used.

Information you submit or make available.

If you create an account for our Platform Services or otherwise create an account through our Sites to utilize the forums or register for one of our events or training, we may ask, and in some cases require, you to enter certain personal data such as your name, email address, phone number, physical address, gender, job title, job role, company name, company size and other information relating to your proposed use of our products and services or our events and training. You will know which data categories you provide to us, because you will affirmatively enter and submit the data. Any such information you provide us in connection with the registration for our Platform Services is deemed “Account Information.” ThinkDeeply may receive information from third parties regarding the companies and users who use our Sites and Platform Services and may combine such information with the information we receive or collect from you.

Information we collect about your use of our Sites.

When you use our Sites, your device automatically generates and provides data to us. We collect and use such data to help us to understand how you are using our Sites, and how to better provide those Sites to you.

When you use the Sites, we use standard automated data collection tools such as cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels and the like (“Web Data”).

Some Usage Data may include certain information which may be considered personal data depending on where you live, like a User’s IP address. To the extent Usage Data contains personal data, it will be treated as personal data and is covered under this Privacy Policy.

What rights do you have over your information?

We offer you choices regarding the collection, use and sharing of your personal data and we will respect the choices you make. Where you have consented to ThinkDeeply’ processing of your personal data, you may withdraw that consent at any time by contacting privacy@ThinkDeeply.com with the subject “Withdraw Consent”. Please note that if you decide not to provide us with your personal data, you may not be able to access the Platform Services or certain features of the Sites.

We may periodically send you free communications that directly promote our products and services. When you receive such promotional or marketing communications from us, you will have the opportunity to opt out (either by following the unsubscribe instructions in the communication you receive or by clicking here).

Rights of Access, Modification, Deletion and Restriction of Your Information.

If you are located in certain parts of the world, including the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and certain other legal jurisdictions (for example California), you may have certain rights in relation to certain of your personal data. Those rights may include asking us to provide information (including categories of sources), access, export, modification, deletion, or to restrict processing of certain of your personal data. If you wish to exercise these rights:

  • and you are an individual user of a Customer account, please route your request through the appropriate Customer and ask that the administrator of the account send us an email at dsr@ThinkDeeply.com with the subject “Data Subject Request”. Please note that we cannot process your request directly, as your information is controlled by that Subscriber, and we do not directly have a relationship with you;
  • and you are a California consumer, please send us an email at california-dsr@ThinkDeeply.com with the subject “CCPA Rights Request”;
  • and you believe we have your personal data for some other reason, including if you registered for one of our events, please contact us at privacy@ThinkDeeply.com with your request with the subject “Other Personal Data Request” and please provide as much information as you can regarding you request so we can properly resolve it.

ThinkDeeply may take certain steps to verify requests submitted using information available to us, including your email address and any information associated with your account. Where allowed, we may ask you to provide your government identification to verify your account. Personal data you provide to us for verification will only be used to verify and maintain records regarding your request.

We will endeavor to promptly respond to your request. Although ThinkDeeply makes good faith efforts to provide users of our Sites and Platform Services with access to their personal data, there may be circumstances in which ThinkDeeply is unable to provide access including but not limited to: where the information is legally privileged, would compromise the privacy or other legitimate rights of others, where the burden or expense of providing the information would be disproportionate to the risks to the User’s privacy in the case in question, where the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive or where the information is proprietary. If you request deletion of your personal data, please note that we may continue to retain certain of your personal data in archived/backup copies for our records or as otherwise required or allowed by law.

How long do we store your information?

ThinkDeeply may retain the personal data we collect from you as described in this Privacy Policy for as long as you use our services or as necessary to fulfill the purpose(s) for which it was collected, provide our services, resolve disputes, establish legal defenses, conduct audits, pursue our legitimate interests, for our business or commercial purposes, enforce our agreements, and comply with applicable laws.

What steps do we take to secure your Information?

ThinkDeeply considers protecting the security of your data to be its number one responsibility. ThinkDeeply has received certification to the internationally recognized industry standard information security management system, ISO27001, and aligns its security practices to the internationally recognized industry standard code of practice for protecting personal data in the cloud, ISO27018.
