Information we collect about you
We may collect and process your name, your email address and other business contact details, and we may ask you a few questions about the company you work for. We retain details of your visits to our website including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data and the resources that you access. We may collect information about your computer, including your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration.
We do not collect Sensitive Information about you.
We may get these details from:
- Information that you provide by filling in forms on www.mediaocean.com (our website), or by emailing us directly, or through social media (LinkedIN, Twitter etc)
- Information that we collect from you in person, at industry events, conferences etc.
We will use this information in order to provide you with information about our systems and services. Where you have initiated the contact with us, you are consenting to our collecting and storing your information for this purpose; but all our emails to you will give the option to opt out of further correspondence.
We will obtain your consent before using your Personal Information for a purpose that is incompatible with the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected.
How we store, share and protect your information
Personal Information collected from prospective clients will be stored in the USA, and may be transferred to or accessed from any other countries where Mediaocean group companies have offices. Data transfer agreements (including the EU model clauses) have been put in place with other Mediaocean entities within the group to ensure protection of Personal Information in line with European data protection requirements.
Mediaocean uses cloud-based software solutions for customer relationship management and marketing communications. Further details can be provided on request. Please see the main Privacy Policy for more information on how Mediaocean stores and shares information and keeps it secure.
If you contact us to enquire about our solution for closed ecosystems (previously known as Scope), and we determine that you may benefit from assistance from our managed services partner Jellyfish, then we will share your details with this partner.
As a matter of routine business we will only use your information for the purposes we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason compatible with the original purpose. We will normally obtain your consent before disclosing Personal Information to a Third Party (other than disclosure to an agent or contractor processing the data solely on our behalf, or disclosure permitted or required by law).
We retain your Personal Information in accordance with Mediaocean’s Data and Document Retention Policies. These policies define retention rules based on the nature of the information and the purpose for which it is required. We destroy or dispose of all Personal Information securely when it is no longer needed.
