WHAT OUR PRIVACY POLICY COVERS
    This Privacy Policy sets out how we collect, store, process, transfer, share and use data that identifies or is associated with you (Personal Information) and information regarding our use of cookies and similar technologies.
    Cpanel/WHM Software provides software and services which allow customers to manage their web hosting activities via hosting automation software (Cpanel/WHM Software Product) made available via our website located at https://Cpanel/WHM Software.net (Website) or through those licensed to distribute the Cpanel/WHM Software Product, or those who are legally entitled to use the Cpanel/WHM Software Product (Authorized Distributors).
    This Privacy Policy applies to the Cpanel/WHM Software Product, our Website, and all Corporate Sites[1].
    Before accessing our Website or using the Cpanel/WHM Software Product, please ensure that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
    With the exception of individuals that use the Cpanel/WHM Software Product as customers of our Authorized Distributors (as described at 3.1 below), Cpanel/WHM Software is the controller responsible for the Personal Information we hold about you.
PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU AND HOW WE USE IT
    We process Personal Information about the following types of individuals:
        individuals who are our direct customers;
        where our customer is a business or similar entity, individuals who are our customer’s employees, agents and other representatives; and
        where the Cpanel/WHM Software Product is licensed through an Authorized Distributor, individuals who are customers of our Authorized Distributors.

    Please note that we process information about individuals who are customers of our Authorized Distributors in the same way as individuals who are our direct customers. However, we are not the controller of that information; the relevant Authorized Distributor will have its own privacy policy which will apply and any questions should be directed to that Authorized Distributor.
    We collect Personal Information about you when you voluntarily submit information directly to us when you access our Website or use the Cpanel/WHM Software Product. This can include information you provide to us when you register for an account, fill in a form, correspond with us via the Website, phone, email or otherwise, subscribe to our mailing lists, newsletters or other forms of marketing communications, respond to surveys or use some other feature of the Cpanel/WHM Software Product as available from time to time.
    If you choose not to provide Personal Information, we may not be able to provide the Cpanel/WHM Software Product to you or respond to your other requests. If you opt out of the sale of information, or click the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” button on our website, or here, we may be unable to provide services to you if your request not to sell information includes a prohibition on processing payments for the products you purchase.
    Schedule 1 describes categories of Personal Information we collect and how we use that Personal Information. When we process that Personal Information, the legal basis we rely on for this activity is also set out. If Personal Information is provided to third parties, that fact is stated. Finally, Schedule 1 also sets out information as to how we determine applicable retention periods. This schedule contains categories of Personal Information that we have collected since April 2018.
    Regardless of whether you license the Cpanel/WHM Software Product directly from us, or through Authorized Distributor, we automatically collect certain Personal Information about you indirectly about how you access and use the Cpanel/WHM Software Product and information about the device you use to access the Cpanel/WHM Software Product.
    Schedule 2 sets out the categories of Personal Information we collect about you automatically and how we use that information. The schedule also lists the legal basis which we rely on to process the Personal Information, the categories of recipients of the Personal Information and information as to how we determine applicable retention periods.
    We may link or combine the Personal Information we collect about you and the information we collect automatically. This allows us to provide you with a personalized experience regardless of how you interact with us.
    We may anonymize and aggregate any of the Personal Information we collect (so that it does not directly identify you). We may use anonymized information for purposes that include testing our IT systems, research, data analysis, improving the Cpanel/WHM Software Product and developing new products and features. We may also share such anonymized information with others.
    Sale of Personal Information. Cpanel/WHM Software may use Personal Information to process payment for services, and, if chosen by a customer, may provide Personal Information to entities whose products Cpanel/WHM Software resells. Cpanel/WHM Software may also provide Personal Information to third parties in conjunction with a sale, or possible sale, of all or some of its assets and to corporate affiliates. Should a non-customer request information from Cpanel/WHM Software pursuant to this Privacy Policy, that information will be transmitted to a credit bureau for authentication. We do not receive compensation for simply providing Personal Information to a third party (a traditional “sale.”)
MARKETING AND ADVERTISING
    From time to time we may contact you with relevant information about the Cpanel/WHM Software Product. Most messages we send will be by email. For some messages, we may use Personal Information we collect about you to help us determine the most relevant information to share with you.
    If you do not want to receive such messages from us, you will be able to tell us by selecting certain boxes on forms we use when we first collect your contact details. You can change your marketing preferences by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of our emails, or following the “update preferences” on these emails.
