PURPOSE

Kaktus provides services and develops software to help merchants sell better or more efficiently online through various platforms, such as Shopify. Kaktus has adopted this Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) to guide you through the collection, use, retention, and disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information (“Personal Data”, as further described below) that you may provide while using Kaktus websites, apps, and services in connection with these platforms (collectively referred to as “Services”). A list of our apps is available on our website. Kaktus encourages you to read this Privacy Policy, as well as our Terms and Conditions of Use, in order to understand how we collect and process Personal Data in the course of providing the Services and your interaction with the Services.

By using the Services, you consent to the collection, use, retention, and disclosure of your Personal Data for processing as described in, and subject to the limitations set out in this Privacy Policy.

Note to Residents of the European Union and California: In order to comply with the requirements of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for our European users, and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), this Privacy Policy outlines the legal basis on which we process your Personal Data and provides other information required by the GDPR & CCPA.

PERSONAL DATA

Personal Data is any information that would identify a person directly, or indirectly in combination with data from other sources. For example, a full name, home or work address, phone number, national identification number (SSN, SIN, etc.), email address, banking details, IP address, biometric data, usage data, or any information that may individually identify a person.

Kaktus may collect Personal Data including without limitation your name, shipping and billing addresses, phone number, email address, payment information, IP address, and device identifiers and/or geolocation information, in the course of its Services, and may use or disclose that Personal Data as described in this Privacy Policy.

Kaktus may also create de-identified or anonymized data from Personal Data by excluding data components (such as your name, email address, etc.) that makes the data able to personally identify you, through obfuscation, or through other means. In addition, Kaktus may collect and use aggregated, anonymous information to provide data about the Services to advertisers, potential business partners and other unaffiliated entities. As this information does not identify a person, and is therefore not Personal Data, Kaktus’s use of such aggregated, anonymized and/or de-identified data is not subject to this Privacy Policy.

CONSENT AND COLLECTION OF PERSONAL DATA

If you use a Kaktus website, or conduct a transaction through a Kaktus Service where Personal Data is essential, your consent is implied to collect and use your Personal Data to facilitate that use or complete that transaction requested or initiated by you only. Examples of instances in which Personal Data may be collected by Kaktus are, without limitation:

  • When you install a Kaktus App,

  • When you access and navigate a Kaktus website, or engage in communication and/or business transactions with Kaktus Professional Services, Managed Services, Client Success, or any other Kaktus entity,
  • If you knowingly submit Personal Data through a Kaktus website for the purpose of registering for a service, a contest, or authentication.

The consent request will include a clear purpose and goal for the collection of Personal Data, along with a means of withdrawing consent. In these scenarios, we may ask for data such as, but not limited to: your contact information (name, telephone numbers, email address, mailing address), date of birth, product and/or cosmetic concerns, which brands and products you use, user authentication and security information (e.g. username and password).If at any point you wish to withdraw consent to Personal Data collection, please contact Kaktus via the Contact & Questions area at the bottom of this Privacy Policy. Please note that certain Services may only be able to be offered or provided to you if you disclose the Personal Data necessary to facilitate those Services, and therefore Kaktus may not be able to provide you with certain Services in the event that you choose not to disclose that Personal Data to Kaktus.

  • For the performance of a contract. To perform our contractual obligations to you, including account registration, fulfilling orders or purchases you have made (including processing of payment), contacting you in relation to any issues with your order, in relation to the provision of the Services, where Kaktus needs to provide your Personal Data to our service providers to provide the Services, or to aggregate and centralize data for the performance of the Services.

Kaktus may send strictly necessary communications, including emails, even if you have opted out of receiving other Kaktus emails or communications. These types of communications do not require consent. Kaktus also processes your Personal Data for our legitimate interests when you communicate with us, including when you sign up for promotional materials and Kaktus has not asked you for your consent in that regard.
  • Respond to Your Requests. To respond to your requests for technical support, online services, product information or to any other communication you initiate. This includes accessing your account to address technical support requests.

Consent as a Basis for Processing

In some cases, Kaktus will ask for your consent to process your Personal Data. You may indicate your consent in a number of ways, including, as may be presented by Kaktus and permitted by law, ticking a box (or equivalent action) to indicate your consent when providing us with your Personal Data through our Services or a form, or registering or creating an account with us. Note that certain country/region-specific rules regarding consent may also apply, depending upon the jurisdiction in which you reside.

SECURITY

Kaktus maintains reasonable physical, technical, and administrative security measures to minimize the risk of unauthorized loss, theft, copying, misuse, access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of your Personal Data.

If transactions are offered as part of a Kaktus Service, transaction information is transmitted to and from Kaktus in encrypted form using industry-standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) connections to help protect such information, including Personal Data transmitted in the course of these transactions, from interception.

Kaktus also restricts access to your Personal Information to only those persons who have a legitimate business need or legal requirement to view it in connection with the Services. You, as a Personal Data owner, may also authorize any persons you may choose to have access to your Personal Data.

Although Kaktus does utilize security measures appropriate to the level of risk, no method of data transfer or storage on the internet is 100% secure and security risks cannot be eliminated entirely. As such, Kaktus cannot guarantee perfect security, integrity, or confidentiality of Personal Data.

Kaktus maintains a security incident response protocol to be put in place in the event that the security of your Personal Data in the possession or control of Kaktus is compromised. In the event of a data breach or security incident involving the Services, Kaktus will apply this protocol to enable Kaktus to effectively and efficiently respond to, and contain, the breach or incident. Kaktus may also seek to notify you in such an event. If notification is appropriate or required, Kaktus may notify you by email, messaging to your device, or other reasonable means.

DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA

Kaktus does not provide Personal Data to unaffiliated third parties for their use in marketing directly to you. We may use unaffiliated companies, or trusted third party service providers, to help maintain and operate our Services for reasons related to our business operations and to better serve you, and those companies may receive your Personal Data for that purpose. For example, Kaktus may use third party payment processor services in connection with the Services and its websites, and the payment information that you provide to Kaktus may be disclosed to and used by these payment processors for the purposes of completing and executing transactions requested or initiated by you. When Kaktus shares Personal Data with third-party services that support our delivery of the Services, we require that they use your Personal Data only for the purposes we’ve authorized, and that they protect your Personal Data to at least the same standards used by Kaktus.

As part of agreements with merchants who have installed Kaktus Apps and the execution of transactions on behalf of merchants that make use of Kaktus Apps in connection with their online stores, we may disclose Personal Data which has been collected by us that is specific to that merchant’s store and your transactions in connection therewith.

Kaktus may also disclose Personal Data about you in connection with legal requirements, such as in response to an authorized subpoena, governmental request or investigation, or as otherwise permitted by applicable law (including, without limitation, to prevent fraud or abuse, or to protect Kaktus’s legal rights, property, or the safety of Kaktus, its employees, users or others). Finally, as Kaktus’s business develops, it may sell or buy corporate assets, and in such transactions Personal Data may be one of the transferred business assets. If Kaktus, its internet businesses, or substantially all of its shares or assets, is acquired or an acquisition is contemplated, Personal Data may be one of the assets assessed or transferred in connection with that transaction.

If you believe your Personal Data has been disclosed other than as described in this Privacy Policy, please contact Kaktus via the Contact & Questions area at the bottom of this Privacy Policy.

TRANSFERS OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA TO OTHER COUNTRIES

The Personal Data Kaktus processes, and associated Services and systems, may be housed on servers in various locations where Kaktus maintains servers or facilities, including Canada, the United States, and the EU. Please be aware that Personal Data we collect may be processed and stored in one or more of these locations. The data protection and privacy laws in these locations may offer a different level of protection than in your country/region, however, as noted earlier in this Privacy Policy, Kaktus takes steps, including through contracts, intended to ensure that the Personal Data it collects continues to be protected wherever it is located in a manner consistent with the standards of protection required under applicable law.

Where Personal Data is transferred from the European Economic Area to a country that has not received an adequacy decision by the European Commission, Kaktus relies on appropriate safeguards, such as for example the European Commission-approved Standard Contractual Clauses and EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks, to transfer the Personal Data.

By using our Services and submitting your Personal Data, you agree to the transfer, storage, and/or processing of your Personal Data in the locations contemplated above. Where and as required, we will seek your explicit consent as outlined in this Privacy Policy.
