Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 1, 2020

1. ABOUT US

For website visitors located in Canada or the United States of America (“USA”), we are RL Publishing Inc., 2300 Yonge Street, Suite 1400, Toronto, Ontario Canada M4P 1E4.  For  website visitors located in any other jurisdiction, we are Pernimus Limited, 9 Karpenisiou, Strovolos, 2021, Nicosia, Cyprus (as applicable, “we,” “us,” “our” or “Pillowtalk“). 

We operate pillowtalk-newsletter.com. Pillowtalk is firmly committed to your privacy, as further detailed in this policy (“Privacy Policy”). We are committed to the protection of your personal data and the transparency of our privacy practices. This Privacy Policy sets out our practices related to the collection, storage, access, use, and disclosure (i.e., sharing) of your personal data (collectively “Processing”) when you visit our website or otherwise make use of our services (the “Services” [as defined in our Terms & Conditions]), or otherwise communicate or interact with us. To help us meet our commitment to you, we have appointed a Data Protection Officer for Europe (known as our Chief Privacy Officer for the remainder of our global operations) to oversee our privacy practices and our compliance with this notice. If you have any questions or concerns regarding our policies and practices related to your information, please contact our Data Protection Officer/Chief Privacy Officer at [email protected], or by writing to the applicable address set forth in Section 15, below.

By accessing the Pillowtalk website or otherwise using any of our Services, you accept this Privacy Policy and agree to the terms, conditions and notices contained or referenced herein. Your use of our Services and any disputes over privacy are subject to this Privacy Policy and our Terms and Conditions (https://www.pillowtalk-newsletter.com/terms).

Please note that this Privacy Policy only addresses the use and sharing of information that we collect from you, or that is collected from you on our behalf. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any Personal Data (as defined below) that you may disclose to other parties through your use of our Services or on other sites throughout the internet, including to or through third-party sites that are hyperlinked from our sites. Except as we may otherwise indicate, any Personal Data that you disclose on a third-party site will be subject to the privacy policy of that site.

This Privacy Policy is current as of the Effective Date set forth above. In the event we intend to materially change any of our practices set out in this Privacy Policy, including if we intend to use your Personal Data for any purpose not expressly contemplated herein, we will provide you a minimum of thirty (30) days’ prior email notice of such change and obtain your consent to the extent required under applicable law. For users for whom we do not have a functioning email address (typically, this will happen when a user has merely visited the website and has not signed up for any marketing emails or otherwise engaged with us directly), we will post such changes to https://www.pillowtalk-newsletter.com/privacy; accordingly, such users should check for such changes periodically (and should also know that merely visiting the website will result in our having little to no Personal Data about you).

2. OVERVIEW

The following is a high-level summary of this Privacy Policy. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully in its entirety before using the Services.

Where you are a resident of any other jurisdiction, Pernimus Limited will be the “controller” (or the equivalent thereof in your jurisdiction of residence) of your data.
  • Information Processed: We process different types of data from you in connection with your access to and use of the Services. In particular, we collect data when you register for a Service which can be attributed to you individually (for example, your email address if you sign up for marketing emails from us). We also collect data automatically from your use of the Services (for example, cookies and your IP address(es)). For more information about the types of personal data we collect or process, see Section 3, below.
  • Usage: We use the data we collect from you for a number of different purposes which are described in Section 4, below. The main purpose is to facilitate your use of the Services.

Some of the recipients to whom we disclose your data may be located in jurisdictions outside your own. For more information about who we disclose information to, see Section 5, below.
  • Security: We take the protection of your personal data seriously. For more information about how we protect your data, see Section 7, below.
  • Your Rights: Depending on where you are located, you will have various rights in relation to your data. For more information about your rights, see Section 10, below.

3. WHAT TYPES OF INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

When you use the Services, we collect and receive two types of data:

  • Data that, alone or in combination with other reasonably available data, can be used to identify you (“Personal Data”). For clarity, “Personal Data” includes any personal information, personal data or personally identifiable information as defined by the privacy or data protection laws in your jurisdiction; and
  • Non-personal data that cannot be used to identify you (for example, aggregated statistical data about the use of our website, or data about a particular user that does not include any identifying data) (“Non-Personal Data”).  For clarity, Non-Personal Data does not constitute Personal Data and any collection or processing of Non-Personal Data is not subject to collection, storage, access, use or disclosure practices contemplated by this Privacy Policy. Any discussion regarding Non-Personal Data made in this Privacy Policy is provided for informational purposes only.

We collect and receive the following Personal Data and Non-Personal Data directly from you and automatically through your use of our Services:

Data you may choose to provide to us

  • If you choose to sign up for marketing emails from us, you will be required to provide us with your email address, age, gender and first name.

Data that will be collected automatically from your device

  • When you visit the website, we collect your IP address (which may reveal your general geographic location) from your browser access to help us respond to inquiries and requests quickly and efficiently.
  • We also collect Personal Data through use of cookies and other tracking devices. For more information about how we use cookies and other tracking devices, see Section 11, below.

Data collected from third parties.

  • We may receive Personal Data about you from a third-party analytics vendor (see Section 11, below); however, we do not seek or purchase Personal Data about you from other third parties.

4. HOW DO WE USE YOUR INFORMATION?

  5. with your consent or as permitted by law, to communicate with you in connection with the Services including, for the purposes of informing you of changes or additions to the Services, or of any products and services of our affiliates or third parties that we believe may be of interest to you; 
  6. with your consent or as permitted by law, to deliver targeted advertising and promotional offers to you from external companies; 
  7. to provide you with customer support;
  8. to protect our own rights and interests, such as to resolve any disputes, enforce our Terms and Conditions, or to respond to legal process;

  12. in connection with a potential sale of our business or assets and/or to manage legal claims against us each of which are described in more detail below.

We also use Non-Personal Data. For example, we may collect and analyze aggregated and/or de-identified information to produce statistical data to help us improve our provision of the Services.

The following only applies to users residing in the EU.

We collect your data as a Data Controller when we have a legal basis to do so. The following legal bases pertain to our collection of data:

  • Our use of your Personal Data is necessary to perform a contract or take steps to enter into a contract with you. This applies to our processing activities described at 4A above. Where the information processed is a “special category of personal data” (known as sensitive data – in particular health information or information about your sexual preferences or ethnicity), we require an additional lawful basis which will be your consent.
  • Our use of your Personal Data is in our legitimate interest as a commercial organization to make improvements to our services and to expand our business. This applies to our processing activities described at 4B, 4C, 4D,  and for certain purposes in 4H.
  • Our use of your Personal Data is necessary to comply with a relevant legal or regulatory obligation that we have, in particular, where we are required to disclose Personal Data to a court, tax authority or regulatory body in the event of an investigation. This applies to some purposes involved our processing activities described at 4E, 4G, and 4I.
  • Our use of your Personal Data is in accordance with your consent. This applies to our processing activities described at 4E, 4H and 4J (in each case where required by local law).

5. HOW WILL WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION?

We may provide Personal Data to third parties in the following limited circumstances:

  • To trusted third parties to assist us in the provision of the Services and the operation of our business.
    • We will share your Personal Data with third party service providers that we have engaged to perform services on our behalf, based on our instructions, such as to our parent, subsidiary or sister companies, or to advertising agencies, marketing agents, data processing and storage companies or organizations which provide administrative and support services to us.
    • We limit our disclosure of your Personal Data to such third parties to that which is reasonably necessary for the purpose or service for which the third-party service provider is engaged.
    • We also use contractual and other means to provide a comparable level of protection while the data is being processed by such third parties, including limiting such providers to using your Personal Data solely to provide us with the specific service for which those providers were engaged, and for no other purpose. You can obtain more information about our policies and practices with respect to the use of Personal Data by third party service providers by contacting [email protected].
  • To courts, regulators and law enforcement as required or permitted by law, including:
    • to government bodies and law enforcement agencies, pursuant to warrant, order, subpoena or statutory requirement;
    • in connection with any legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings involving RL Publishing Inc. or Pernimus Limited; and
    • to otherwise establish, exercise or defend our legal rights and protect against misuse of our Services, or to protect the personal safety and property or our users or the public as permitted by law.
    • In the event of a sale or merger, including:
    • as required, in connection with the sale, assignment, bankruptcy proceeding or other transfer of the business or a portion of the business of our Services, including a corporate merger, consolidation, restructuring, sale of assets or other corporate change of our direct or indirect parent companies that affects us, as well as the insurance or securitization of our assets. In any such case, the recipient parties will be required contractually to keep the information confidential and use it only for the purposes of the transaction, or proposed transaction, in question.
    • In the event a business transaction is completed, assignees or successors of our business or assets may use and disclose your Personal data, as obtained from RL Publishing Inc. or Pernimus Limited only for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless your further consent is obtained.

We do not otherwise share, give, rent or sell your Personal Data to any third parties, unless you give us additional consent to do so.

We may disclose Non-Personal Data in a number of circumstances, including to third-party advertisers.

6. DATA TRANSFERS

As we have a global business operation, your Personal Data may be transferred between RL Publishing Inc. and Pernimus Inc., or between either of those entities and our parent, subsidiary or sister entities, or with service providers.

As a result, your Personal Data may be collected, stored, accessed, used and/or disclosed in countries outside your jurisdiction of residence, including without limitation Canada and Cyprus. Some of these jurisdictions do not have an equivalent level of data protection laws as those in your country; however, we will take steps to ensure that the information receives the same level of protection as if it remained within your home country. In particular, if you are a resident of the European Union, whenever we transfer your data outside of Europe we will either: (a) ensure that the country is deemed adequate by the European Commission; (b) put in place Standard Contractual Clauses; or, (c) implement appropriate safeguards approved by the European Commission to ensure an adequate level of protection in compliance with applicable data protection laws. You have a right to request details about the appropriate safeguards where this is documented (but it may be redacted to ensure security and confidentiality).

7. SECURITY

We take the protection of your Personal Data seriously. We implement appropriate measures and take steps to protect Personal Data against loss and theft as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, and modification using security safeguards, including physical, organizational and technological measures, commensurate with the sensitivity of your Personal Data. Our employees who have access to your Personal Data are made aware of the importance of keeping it confidential.

Where we use service providers who might have access to your Personal Data, we require them to have privacy and security standards that are comparable to ours. We use contracts and other measures with our service providers to maintain the confidentiality and security of your Personal Data and to prevent it from being used for any other purpose.

Please be aware that no data security measures can guarantee complete security. You also should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your phone, other mobile device and computer by, among other things, signing off after using a shared computer, and choosing a robust password – for access to your hardware – that nobody else knows or can guess easily.

8. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP THE PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT?

We keep your Personal Data for only as long as it is required for the purposes for which it was collected, or as otherwise permitted by applicable law, after which we delete or de-identify your Personal Data, rendering it Non-Personal Data.

In general, we retain your Personal Data for a period of time corresponding to a statute of limitations setting out the period during which legal claims may be filed in court. For example, we may retain your Personal Data during the statute of limitation period, to maintain an accurate record of your dealings with us and, as applicable, assert or defend against a legal claim. However, in some circumstances we may retain Personal Data for other periods of time, for instance where we are required to do so in accordance with legal, tax and accounting requirements, or if required to do so by a legal process, legal authority, or other governmental entity having authority to make the request, for so long as required.

9. CHILDREN

The Services are not for use by children under the age of 18 years. Accordingly, we do not knowingly collect, store, share or use the Personal Data of children under 18 years. If you are under the age of 18 years, please do not use this Service or provide any Personal Data, even if prompted by the website to do so. If you choose to sign up for marketing emails, you will be required to provide us with your age. Failure to answer accurately will be deemed to be fraudulent on your part, and you, not us, will bear responsibility for such fraudulent behaviour and any resultant consequences.   

10. YOUR RIGHTS

You have the ability to exercise the following rights:

  • Right to withdraw consent.
    • You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal and contractual restrictions. For example, if you wish to opt-out of receiving electronic marketing communications, you can use the ‘unsubscribe’ link provided in our emails, or otherwise contact us at [email protected], and we will stop sending you communications. Note that your withdrawal of such consent may limit your ability to fully use the Services.
  • Right of access, rectification and erasure.
    • You have the right to request access to and obtain a copy of any of your Personal Data that we may hold, to request correction of any inaccurate data relating to you, and to request the deletion of your Personal Data under certain circumstances.
  • Data portability.
    • Where the Personal Data is processed by automatic means, you have the right to receive all such Personal Data which you have provided us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and also to require us to transmit it to another controller where this is technically feasible.
  • Right to restriction of processing.
    • You have the right to restrict our processing of your Personal Data (meaning we could only store it unless we have your consent or as otherwise required by law) where:
      • you contest the accuracy of the Personal Data, until we have taken sufficient steps to correct or verify its accuracy; or
      • we no longer need your Personal Data for the purposes of the processing, but you require such Personal Data for the purposes of a dispute, complaint or proceeding. 
  • Right to object to direct marketing (including profiling).
    • You have the right to object to our use of your Personal Data (including profiling) for direct marketing purposes, such as when we use your Personal Data to inform you of our promotions.
    • You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the privacy commissioner with jurisdiction over your place of residence, if you consider that the processing of your Personal Data infringes applicable law (although we ask you to try resolve any complaints with us first).

If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the contact information provided in Section 15, below.

11. COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING

Where we have necessary permissions and consents in accordance with local laws, we use cookies, clear GIFs, third-party analytics and other tracking mechanisms to track your use of the Services. As you use our website, these tracking mechanisms may collect information automatically, such as: your IP address, browser type and operating system; web pages you view; links you click; how you move through the Services and the length of time you use the Services, or particular features or pages of the Services; and the referring URL, or the webpage that led you to our website. We may combine this information with other Personal Data we collect about you for statistical purposes, for measuring effectiveness of advertising, and in order to assist our customer service representatives in responding to your inquiries.

Provided we have obtained necessary permissions and consents in accordance with local laws, we use these tools only to provide you with an improved user experience, to better understand your needs and preferences, to provide you with content (including marketing emails) that is most relevant to you, and to monitor trends respecting the usage of our website.

Do-Not-Track. Currently, our systems do not recognize browser “do-not-track” requests. You may, however, disable certain tracking as discussed in this section (e.g., by disabling cookies or opting out of ad networks as described further in this section).

Cookies. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer’s hard drive, through your web browser, for record-keeping purposes. We might use cookies to uniquely identify your browser/device/IP address, in order to help us track aggregate and statistical information about user activity, and to display advertising both on our website and on third-party sites. Please note that your web browser might collect information about you, including in the form of cookies, separately from what we collect. We have no control over and are not responsible for such activity by your web browser. The Help portion of the toolbar on most web browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, how to browse the web anonymously (or in “incognito mode”), and/or how to disable cookies altogether.  If you disable cookies, some features of our website may not function. Further information may be found at www.allaboutcookies.org.

Clear GIFs. Clear GIFs (a.k.a. web beacons, web bugs or pixel tags) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies though, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web pages, not stored on your hard drive. These “images” are automatically loaded to your browser/device when you visit our website or open an html format email message from us, thereby letting us know if a certain page was visited or an email message was opened. Clear GIFs allow us to record simple user actions related to our websites and to email communications received from us, to help us determine the usage and effectiveness of our site and communications. We might use clear GIFs to track the activities of our website visitors, help us manage content, and compile statistics about usage. We and our third-party service providers also might use clear GIFs in html e-mails to our customers, to help us track e-mail response rates, identify when our e-mails are viewed, and track whether our e-mails are forwarded. These may be blocked either by using a third-party application (look for a browser extension for content filtering, including ad blocking) or, in the case of emails, by changing your settings to prevent images from being downloaded (where your email provider supports this functionality).

Third-Party Analytics. We also may use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245) (to opt out, go here [https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout]), AppsFlyer (https://www.appsflyer.com/services-privacy-policy/) (to opt out, go here [https://www.appsflyer.com/optout]) and Dynatrace (https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/how-to-use-dynatrace/data-privacy-and-security/data-privacy/) to evaluate usage of our website and the Services we provide.  We use these tools to obtain aggregated statistical information about the use of our Services to help us improve our services, performance and user experiences.  These analytics providers may use cookies and other technologies to perform their services, and may combine the information that they collect about you on our website with other information that they have collected about you from your use of other sites.  This Privacy Policy does not cover the collection, storage, access, use and disclosure of the tracking data collected by third-party analytics providers: for further information please see the relevant party’s privacy policy.

Third-Party Ad Networks. We might use third parties such as network advertisers to serve advertisements on our website and on third-party websites or other media, and to evaluate the success of our advertising campaigns. This would enable us and these third parties to target your browser with advertisements for products and services in which you might be interested, based on inferences made from browser activity. Third-party ad network providers, advertisers, sponsors and/or traffic measurement services might use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (including clear GIFs), and other tracking technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. These third-party cookies and other technologies are governed by each third party’s specific privacy policy, not this one. In some situations, we might provide these third-party advertisers with limited information about users (e.g., IP address, gender and age [where we have such information] solely for the purpose of reconciling payments for third-party advertising), but we would not disclose details such as your name or email address. You might be able to avoid targeted ads by certain ad networks by blocking cookies (see your browser’s “Help” menu for information on how to do this); however, our website may not work if you block or disable cookies.

reCAPTCHA. We sometimes might use the reCAPTCHA service provided by Google Inc. (Google) to protect your submissions via internet submission forms on this site. This plugin checks if you are a person in order to prevent certain website functions from being abused by spam bots. This plugin query includes the sending of the IP address and possibly other data required by Google for the Google reCAPTCHA service. For this purpose, your input will be communicated to and used by Google. However, your IP address is previously truncated by Google within member states of the EU or in other states which are party to the agreement on the European Economic Area and is, as such, anonymized. Only in exceptional cases is a full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address provided by reCAPTCHA from your browser shall not be merged with any other data from Google. This data collection is subject to the data protection regulations of Google. For more information about Google’s privacy policy, please visit https:www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/. By using the reCAPTCHA service, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set forth above.

Third-Party Links. Our Services may contain links to third-party websites. When you leave our websites and use a third-party website, that third-party website may collect your IP address and other Personal Data in accordance with its own privacy policy. Any access to and use of such linked websites, and any Personal Data collected in connection therewith, is not governed by this Privacy Policy, but rather by the privacy policies of those third-party websites. We are not responsible for the information practices of such third-party websites.

12. DIRECT MARKETING

Where we have necessary permissions and consents in accordance with local laws: (a) we will send you marketing information about our website and our Services, and about other products and services our affiliates and/or third parties offer where we legitimately believe this may be of interest to you; and, (b) this content will be personalized. Where you have specifically requested marketing information from us about our affiliates and/or third parties that we work with, or have expressly indicated that you would like to receive details from other entities, we also may send promotional offers.

Depending on your marketing preferences, marketing may be carried out by email, push notifications or other electronic channels (see our Cookie Notice at Annex A for further details). If you change your mind, you can always choose to unsubscribe from receiving these marketing communications. You can do this by clicking the ‘unsubscribe’ link on any of our emails, or by contacting us at [email protected].

13. PROFILING

We use Personal Data that you provide combined with certain algorithms and machine-based learning to improve our website. This does not amount to “automated decision making” which would have any significant impact on you.

14. ACCESS AND UPDATES

You have the opportunity to (i) opt-out of certain communications, (ii) modify/update Personal Data you have provided to us.

Please be aware that opting-out of email notifications from us, will only change or delete the data in our database for the purpose of future activities and communications.
