Data Policy

This Policy describes the information we process to support Optima-CRM, and other products and features offered by OptimaSys Group Spain (Products). 

1. The kinds of information we collect

To provide the OptimaSys Products, we must process information about you. The type of information that we collect depends on how you use our Products. You can learn how to access and update information that we collect by visiting your Optima-CRM settings. 

Things that you and others do and provide.

  • Information and content you provide: We collect the content, communications and other information you provide when you use our Products, including when you sign up for an account, sign-in and sign-out, create or share content and message or communicate with others. This can include what you see through features that we provide, so we can give you tips on how to best use the functions. Our systems automatically process content and communications that you and others provide to analyze context and what's in them for the purposes described below. 
  • Networks and connections. We collect information about the external systems and tools that you are connected to and how you interact with them across our Products. We also collect connection information to detect irregularities or problems and be able to resolve them.
  • Your usage. We collect information about how you use our Products, such as the types of content that you view or engage with, the features you use, the actions you take, the people or accounts you interact with and the time, frequency and duration of your activities. For example, we log when you're using and have last used our Products. We also collect information about how you use features within Optima-CRM and other of our Products.
  • Information about transactions made on our Products. If you use our Products for  financial transactions (such as when you make a purchase to contract or use a service), we collect information about the purchase or transaction. This includes payment information, such as your credit or debit card number and other card information, other account and authentication information, and billing, delivery and contact details.
  • Things others do and information they provide about you. We also receive and analyze content, communications and information that other people provide when they use our Products. This can include information about you, such as when others share properties with you, sync or import your contact information.

 

Device information.

As described below, we collect information from and about the computers, phones, and other web-connected devices you use that integrate with our Products, and we combine this information across different devices that you use. For example, we use information collected about your use of our Products on your phone to better personalise the content or features that you see when you use our Products on another device, such as your laptop or tablet, or to measure whether you took an action in response to a notification that we showed you on your phone on a different device. 

 

Information that we obtain from these devices includes: 

  • Device attributes: information such as the operating system, hardware and software versions, battery level, signal strength, available storage space, browser type, app and file names and types, and plugins.
  • Device operations: information about operations and behaviors performed on the device, such as whether a window is foregrounded or backgrounded, or mouse movements (which can help distinguish humans from bots).
  • Identifiers: unique identifiers, device IDs and other identifiers, such as identifiers unique to Optima-CRM Company Products associated with the same device or account.
  • Data from device settings: information that you allow us to receive through device settings that you turn on, such as access to your GPS location, camera or photos.
  • Network and connections: information such as the name of your mobile operator or ISP, language, time zone, mobile phone number, IP address, connection speed.
  • Cookie data: data from cookies stored on your device, including cookie IDs and settings. Learn more about how we use cookies in the OptimaSys Cookies Policy.

 

2. How we use this information

We use the information that we have (subject to choices you make) as described below, and to provide and support the Optima-CRM Products and related services described in the Optima-CRM Terms. Here's how:

Provide, personalize and improve our Products

We use the information we have to deliver our Products, including to personalize features and content and make suggestions for you (such as groups or topics that you may be interested in) on and off our Products. To create personalized Products that are unique and relevant to you, we use your connections, preferences, interests and activities based on the data that we collect and learn from you and others (including any data with special protections that you choose to provide where you have given your explicit consent); how you use and interact with our Products; and the people, places or things that you're connected to and interested in on and off our Products. Learn more about how we use information about you to personalize your Optima-CRM experience, including features, content and recommendations in Optima-CRM Products.

  • InformationenInformation across Optima-CRM Products and devices: We connect information about your activities on different Optima-CRM Products and devices to provide a more tailored and consistent experience on all Optima-CRM Products that you use, wherever you use them. For example, we can make your experience more seamless, for example, by automatically filling in your registration information (such as your phone number) from one Optima-CRM Product when you sign up for an account on a different Product.
  • Location-related information: We use location-related information – such as your current location, and the businesses and properties you're near – to provide, personalize and improve our Products, for you and others. Location-related information can be based on things such as precise device location (if you've allowed us to collect it), IP addresses and information from your and others' use of Optima-CRM Products.
