Services Privacy Policy

Policy Version Date: January 27, 2022

Pushwoosh, Inc. and its group of companies (Pushwoosh, “Us”, “Our”, or “We”) are committed to protecting Your privacy. This Services Privacy Policy sets out how We collect and process personal information through Our push notifications delivery platform and related services including the development, transmission, analysis, and management of push notifications and email messages and other digital communications and tools (the “Services”) and generally in the course of doing business – such as when an individual who has registered to use the Services (“Customer”), potential Customer, or other third party engages with Us in relation to the provision of the Services (collectively “You”).
This Services Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) does not cover how Pushwoosh collects and uses personal information collected from individuals who visit Our website (“Visitors”), as described in Our separate Website Privacy Policy.

  1. Information Collected Through the Services

    Through Our Services, Pushwoosh collects certain personal information, as follows:

    1. Information Customers Provide to Us:

      You may provide personal information to Us through the Services – for example, when You create a Pushwoosh account, use the Services to send emails or other communications, contact customer support, send Us an email, or communicate with Us in any other way. When setting up a Pushwoosh account, You will be asked to provide certain basic information such as a name, email address, username, password, company name, occupation, location and phone number (e.g. if You are using two-factor authentication). If You purchase one of Our paid plans, You may also need to provide Us with payment and billing information such as the Customer’s credit card details and billing address. As a Customer, Pushwoosh will also maintain a record of Your purchases, transactional information, Services history and usage, and any communications and responses. We may also collect personal information, such as Your contact information, job details and feedback, when You attend Our events, take part in surveys, or through other business or marketing interactions We may have with You.

    2. Information We Collect Automatically Through the Services:

      When You use the Services, We may collect certain information automatically about Your device and Your use of the Services. This will include IP addresses, browser types, log files, and other information regarding Your system and connection. We collect information about how You access and use the Services, such as what pages are viewed and what portions of the Services are used. We also collection information regarding the performance of the Services, including metrics related to the deliverability of push notifications, emails and other electronic communications You send through the Pushwoosh platform. This information allows Us to improve the content and operation of the Services, and facilitate research and analysis of the Services. Please be aware that We use web beacons in Our emails to recipients delivered using the Pushwoosh platform. These web beacons track certain behavior such as whether the email sent through the Pushwoosh platform was delivered, opened, clicked on, whether it bounced or was treated as spam. This allows Us to measure the performance of Our Customer’s email campaigns, and to provide analytics information and enhance the effectiveness of Our Services. We collect this information automatically through the use of various commonly used information-gathering technologies including cookies and web beacons, to collect information as users and Visitors navigate the Website and use the Services (“Web Site Navigational Information”). We use these technologies to analyze trends, administer Web sites and Services, track users’ and Visitors’ movements around Our Website and Services, serve targeted advertisements and gather demographic information about Our user and Visitor base as a whole. Additional information about Our use of Web Site Navigational Information is available at https://www.pushwoosh.com/privacy-policy-navigational-information/.

    3. Information We Process on Behalf of Our Customers:

      Pushwoosh Customers may also input or upload certain personal information to the Pushwoosh platform which We will process as a data processor on Our Customers’ behalf. For example, when Our Customers use Our push notifications or email delivery platform to upload contact information relating to their recipients, push tokens, device identifiers, other personal information about recipients, or upload contents of email communications, or create marketing campaigns, We will act as a data processor and only process such information on Our Customer’s behalf and in accordance with their instructions (as defined in Our Customer agreements). We will use such personal information to: provide and deliver the Services to the Customer, prevent or address any service or technical issues, respond to a Customer’s request, instructions or support request, or for any other purpose provided for in the Customer agreement, or in accordance with or as may be required by law. In such cases, it is the Customer (or, as the case may be, other third parties) who remain responsible for the handling of the personal information and with compliance with any applicable data privacy laws. If You have questions or concerns about how such personal information is handled, You should contact the relevant entity that is using the Services, and refer to their separate privacy policies.
