Third parties may use cookies or similar technologies on visitors of our Services to serve interest-based advertisements to such visitors when they visit other websites and mobile applications.

We and our service providers may also use “pixel tags,” “web beacons”, “clear GIFs” or similar means (individually or collectively “Pixel Tags”) to analyze usage patterns of consumers.

Some Pixel Tags are used to drop cookies on users’ devices. Pixel Tags allow us to count users who have visited certain websites and applications of our business customers, and pages within such websites and applications, and to help determine the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.
We do not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals at this time.
We will retain your personal information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law, or an individual or business customer requests deletion in accordance with applicable law.

Please be aware that the information we collect may be transferred to and maintained on servers or databases located outside your country, where the privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your country. Please be advised that we process and store information in any country where we have facilities and/or employees, including the United States, or in which we engage service providers. Your consent to this Privacy Policy or your use of any of the Services or your submission of your information to us or any of our business customers, represents your consent to such transfer, storage and processing outside of your country of residence, including the United States, which may have different data protection rules than those of your country of residence.
Model Clauses: If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we will protect your personal information when it is transferred outside of your jurisdiction by (a) processing it in a territory that provides an adequate level of protection based on its data protection laws; or (b) implementing appropriate safeguards to protect your personal information, such as relying on the European standard contractual clauses. Sibros currently relies on these European standard contractual clauses for data transfers.
This Privacy Policy does not cover, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, data or other practices of any third parties (except as required by applicable law), including any third parties operating any site or service to which our Services link. The inclusion of a link on the Services does not imply endorsement of the linked site or service by us or by our affiliates. These third parties are bound by their own privacy policies.
Except as required by applicable law, we are also not responsible for the collection, usage and disclosure policies and practices (including the data security practices) of our service providers, app developers, app providers, ad servers, social media platform providers, operating system providers, wireless service providers or device manufacturers, including any personal information you disclose to other organizations through or in connection with the Services.

Sibros is a data processor with respect to personal data collected or received by us when we receive such information from: our business customers (the data controllers) that make their data available for use via our Services, or you after you have signed up for our Service via our business customers. Where we operate as a data processor, we are processing the data on behalf of our business customers (the data controller(s) of the data) based on their instructions, and it is the responsibility of the data controller to establish an appropriate legal basis for the processing of the data.
For example, we may process data when the individual has consented to such processing. On certain occasions we may rely on another lawful basis as a basis for processing, such as when it is in our business customers’ and our legitimate interests to do so and when these interests are not overridden by the individual’s data protection rights. Those legitimate interests include performing our obligations with respect to providing the Services and improving our Services.
Sibros is a data controller with respect to any personal data collected or received by us when we receive personal information (such as name, phone number, and email address) through our Services without being connected to any business customer. In this case, the data controller is Sibros. Where Sibros operates as a data controller, we rely on legitimate interests to process personal data to provide our Services. On certain occasions, we may also rely on the consent of the individual to process personal information (for example, in some jurisdictions, when the user inputs personal information into the Services and consents to receive marketing communications). On other occasions, we may process personal information when we need to do this to fulfill a contract or where we are required to do so by law.
Sibros has appointed a data protection officer (DPO) who is responsible for overseeing questions in relation to this Privacy Policy. If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, please contact our DPO at privacy@sibros.tech.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you may have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal information, such as:
To exercise any of these rights, email our DPO at privacy@sibros.tech with your request. We will handle your request under applicable law. When you make a request, we may verify your identity to protect your privacy and security.
In compliance with GDPR regulations, Sibros commits to resolve complaints about our collection or use of your personal information. You have a right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority situated in a member state of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of alleged infringement. You can find the relevant supervisory authority name and contact details here for individuals located in the EEA, here for individuals located in the United Kingdom and here for individuals located in Switzerland.
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides certain California residents with the additional rights listed below. The rights below apply in the event that we process your information as a business, on our own behalf. In the event that we process your information on behalf of a business customer, we will either process your request or direct you to the business customer directly to make your access, portability or deletion request.
The CCPA temporarily excludes from these rights certain personal information in business-to-business communications or transactions as well as information about our employees, job applicants, contractors, controlling owners, directors, officers and medical staff (if any) in their capacities as such individuals at Sibros.
Right to Access. You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:
Data Portability Right. You have the right request that we provide you with access to the information above (Right to Access) in a readily usable format that allows you to transmit (i.e., port) the information to another entity without hindrance. If you make a request under your right to request access, you will receive access to your information in a readily usable format.
Right to Delete. You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies. You must contact the applicable business customers directly to delete your information that they have in their systems.
We may deny your deletion request or not delete some of your personal information, if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:
We may also limit our deletion to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Exercising Your Rights. To exercise your rights, please contact us as follows:
We will attempt to respond to a consumer request for access or deletion within 45 days of receiving that request. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.
