Cirrus Insight Privacy Policy

Updated: 03/05/2020

Introduction

Welcome to Cirrus Insight, a service provided by Cirrus Insight, collectively referred to as “Cirrus Insight”, “we”, “our” and “us”.

Your privacy is important to us, so the goal of this policy is to be transparent about what information Cirrus Insight collects, uses, and shares.

This policy explains your rights with regards to that information. It also explains how to access and update your information, and how you can object to its use.

By using the Website, Apps or any of the Services, and in particular by registering a Cirrus Insight account, you are consenting to the use of your information in the manner set out in this Privacy Policy.

Please note that this Privacy Policy only applies to the Website, the Apps and the Services (together, the “Platform”). For convenience, Cirrus Insight integrates with 3rd party applications (for example, Stripe for payment processing) and you may find links to other 3rd Party applications (websites, apps and services, or tools) which enable you to share information. Cirrus Insight is not responsible for the privacy practices of 3rd Parties and we recommend that you review the privacy policies for each before connecting your Cirrus Insight account or sharing any personal data.
