Ensono Privacy Policy
1: Policy Statement
Ensono, Inc. and its affiliates (“Ensono,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) are committed to respecting your privacy and safeguarding your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect “Personal Information” we obtain from individuals, associates, customers, and contractors (“you”) through our website (collectively, our “Site”), products, and services (collectively, the “Services”), and from third party and publicly available sources, as further described below. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before you start to use our Services, whether online or offline. When referenced in this Privacy Policy, the term “Personal Information” (i.e., Personal Data or other similar terms as defined by applicable law) includes any information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household, including any information that is subject to applicable data protection laws.
For purposes of this Privacy Policy, Ensono is the controller (i.e., responsible party) of the Personal Information described in this Privacy Policy. However, we also provide and administer the Services on behalf of customers and act as a processor or service provider relative to such customers. This Privacy Policy does not apply in that regard, and we recommend that you review the privacy policy of such third-party customers with whom you are dealing directly as they will be responsible for the handling of your Personal Information.

International Data Transfers
Ensono is headquartered in the United States and we have operations, entities, and service providers both in the United States and throughout the world. As such, we and our service providers may transfer your Personal Information to, or access it in, jurisdictions that may not provide equivalent levels of data protection as your home jurisdiction. We will take steps to ensure that your Personal Information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it. If you are located in the European Economic Area or the UK, we provide adequate protection for the transfer of Personal Information to countries outside of these areas, such as through the use of authorized EU Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK Standard Contractual Clauses, or the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Depending on your location, you may have the right to request a copy of such appropriate safeguards by contacting us as set out at the end of this Privacy Policy.

Your Rights
You may have certain rights regarding your Personal Information. The rights available to you depend on our reason for processing your Personal Information and the requirements of applicable law (i.e., your rights will vary depending on whether you are located in, for example, California, the European Union, or United Kingdom). Specifically, you may have the following rights:
- Right to access: You may have the right to obtain from us confirmation as to whether Personal Information concerning you is being processed, and, where that is the case, to request access to the Personal Information. This access to information includes the purposes of the processing, the categories of Personal Information concerned, and the recipients or categories of recipient to whom the Personal Information have been or will be disclosed, among other categories of information.
- Right to rectification (right to correct inaccurate information): You may have the right to request that we correct any Personal Information about you that is inaccurate. Depending on the purpose of the processing, you also have the right to request that we complete the Personal Information we hold about you where you believe it is incomplete, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.
- Right to erasure (right to be forgotten): You may have the right to request that we erase your Personal Information, under certain conditions.
- Right to restrict processing: You may have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your Personal Information, under certain conditions. In such case, the respective data will be marked and may only be processed by us for certain purposes.
- Right to object to processing: You may have the right to object to our processing of your Personal Information. Such right to object may especially apply if we collect and process your Personal Information through automated decision making, such as profiling, to better understand your interests in our products and services or for direct marketing. If you have a right to object and you exercise this right, your Personal Information will no longer be processed by us for such purposes. Such a right to object may, in particular, not exist if the processing of your Personal Information is necessary to take steps prior to entering into a contract or to perform a contract already concluded.
- Right to data portability: You may have the right to request that we transfer the Personal Information we have collected about you to another organization, or directly to you, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, under certain conditions.
- Right to withdraw consent: Where we rely on your consent to process your Personal Information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time with future effect. Such a withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of the processing prior to the consent withdrawal.
- Right to know what Personal Information is sold or shared and to whom, and right to prohibit the sale or sharing of Personal Information: We do not and have not in the preceding 12 months, sold your Personal Information. However, we have shared (in this context, share means use of your Personal Information for cross-contextual behavioral advertising) your Personal Information. You may opt-out of the sharing of your Personal Information by updating your preferences under the “Your Privacy Choices” button.
- Right to limit the use and disclosure of sensitive Personal Information: We will only use sensitive or special Personal Information as needed for the purposes for which it was collected. If this changes, we will notify you, and you may have the right to restrict such additional uses.
- Right of non-discrimination/retaliation: We do not discriminate against individuals who exercise any of their rights described in this Privacy Policy, nor do we retaliate against individuals who exercise these rights.
Please note that many of the above rights are subject to exceptions and limitations. Your rights and our responses will vary based on the circumstances of the request. If you choose to assert any of these rights under applicable law, we will respond within the time period prescribed by such law.
If you are located in the State of California in the United States, a person authorized to act on your behalf may make a verifiable request related to your personal information. If you designate an authorized person to submit requests to exercise certain privacy rights on your behalf, we will require verification that you provided the authorized agent permission to make a request on your behalf.
In any circumstances, your request must: (i) provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative of that person; and (ii) describe the request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
To exercise your rights, please contact us as stated in the “Contact Us” section of this Privacy Policy.
Opt-out Preference Signal (Do Not Track)
Ensono does not currently recognize Do Not Track signals. However, we recognize commercially reasonable universal preference signals (e.g., Global Privacy Control).
