Please take the time to read this Privacy Policy carefully in order to understand how we collect, share, and otherwise process information relating to individuals (“Personal Data”), and to learn about your rights and choices regarding our processing of your Personal Data.

II. Kanu Solutions’s Roles & Responsibilities

Kanu Solutions Inc. is the controller of your Personal Data, as described in this Privacy Policy, unless otherwise stated. Please note that this Privacy Policy does not apply to the extent that we process Personal Data in the role of a processor on behalf of our customers, including where we offer to our customers various cloud products and services, through which our customers (and/or their affiliates) connect their own websites and applications to our hosted partner platform, sell or offer their own products and services, send electronic communications to other individuals, or otherwise collect, use, share or process Personal Data via our partner’s cloud products and services.

III. Personal Data We Collect and Data Sources

Covered Data Processing Activities

This Privacy Policy applies to the processing of Personal Data that we collect in the following ways, as detailed in this section.

We collect information about you when you provide it to us, when you interact with our websites and electronic systems, and when other sources provide it to us, as further described below. 

Information you provide to us

Based on our current practices we collect the following categories of information about you:

  • Contact and Professional Data: We collect contact and/or professional data about you in person, through communications, including communications from you or your colleagues, and through our websites. For example, you provide your contact and professional information to us when you sign up to learn more about Kanu Solutions Inc’s products and services and download content. Typically, contact data includes your name and contact methods, such as telephone number, email address, and mailing address, and professional data includes details such as the organization you are affiliated with, your job title, and industry.
  • Job Applicant Data: You provide your contact and professional information, including your resume with educational and work background, when you apply for a job with Kanu Solutions. You may also provide us with sensitive information, like your Social Security Number or other government identifier, racial or ethnic origin, or other such Personal Data in connection with your job application. 
  • Contract and Payment Data: We may receive contract details (like signatures) from you or your organization and use third party payment processing services to collect payment and billing information, which may contain Personal Data such as billing name, billing address and payment card details, in connection with some of our partner products and services. 
  • Personal Data We Collect From Other Sources
    In the course of doing business (and over the 12 months preceding the effective date of this Privacy Policy), we receive Personal Data and other information from other third parties for our business or commercial purposes. This information varies and typically falls into a few categories:
    • Business contact information (such as name, job title, business email, phone number, and address), social profile (such as LinkedIn) including other details about your company for sales and marketing purposes, including to better inform you about Kanu Solutions and Partner products and services;
    • Third-party platform usernames and identifying information;
    • Details about you as a job candidate (which may include your name, resume, educational and work history, criminal history information, and feedback) as permitted under law; and
    • Data used for security purposes to protect our products and services.

We receive business contact information that contains Personal Data for commercial purposes, including details about your company from third parties for marketing and business intelligence, such as analyzing business opportunities, identifying potential new customers, and providing our audience with more relevant content and advertising. Typically, we receive this information about you from a few sources, such as: (i) when you consent to having your attendee badge scanned at an event hosted by another third party; and (ii) referrals. In some situations, we may combine such business contact information with other non-personal and Personal Data we possess or that you have provided to us. For example, we may combine business contact details with details about your organization, such as its address or revenue range, and analyze this information for business opportunities or use this to send you tailored content.

If you are a candidate applying for a job at Kanu Solutions, we may receive Personal Data about you from third parties for business purposes, such as through background checks (educational, employment, criminal, and financial information), publicly-available sources (like social media accounts, including LinkedIn for identifying candidates), feedback about your application and from interviews, and other third parties that may provide feedback about your application.

For our professional services work, as a processor or service provider, Kanu Solutions may also receive Personal Data about you to perform its obligations under its contract with a third party. Kanu Solutions partners may also share your business contact information with Kanu Solutions as part of their recommendation to your company to become an Kanu Solutions customer.

Device Data, Usage Data, and Metadata We Collect

Explanation of Device Data, Usage Data, and Other Metadata and Technology Used

Like most websites, applications, and software across the Internet, Kanu Solutions collects certain Personal Data. This type of data collection allows us to better understand how individuals use our websites, products and services and how they perform. For example, we may collect metadata about you, including technical data about your performance or use of our website, products and services.

One common technology we use to collect metadata that may be considered Personal Data is our use of cookies. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your web browser and that help us recognize your browser or device as a unique visitor in different ways based on the type of cookie. The three main types of cookies are: 

  • Essential cookies. Essential cookies are required for website functionality and security. For example, authentication, security, and session cookies may be required for our website or products to work.
  • Functional cookies. We use functional cookies to help enhance our websites’ performance, for market research, or other analytics or advertising that is not tied to a specific individual. For example, we may use Google analytics to help us track how many individuals visited our website. We may also utilize HTML5 local storage cookies for the reasons described in this section. These types of cookies are different from browser cookies in the amount and type of data they store and how they store it.

Kanu Solutions as a Business

As with most websites, whenever you visit an Kanu Solutions website or when you interact with Kanu Solutions promotional content, we may receive both Personal Data about you from information-gathering tools and passive information collection on our websites, including Personal Data from our websites you visit or emails we send. This information collection typically includes information such as cookies, demographic information, company and role details, market research as well as other non-Personal Data.

We use the information we collect as a business to analyze and predict results arising from our sales and marketing efforts, improve the performance of our partner products and services and customer support, identify potential customers, opportunities, and potential new product areas.

IV. How We Use Personal Data
