Information You Provide to Us: We receive and store any information you knowingly provide to us. For example, through the registration process and/or through your account settings, we may collect Personal Data such as your name, email address, phone number, and third-party account credentials (for example, your log-in credentials for LinkedIn, Salesforce, Twitter, Facebook, Google, HubSpot or Outreach). If you provide your Third-Party account credentials to us or otherwise sign into the Service through a Third Party site or service (such as LinkedIn, Salesforce, Twitter, Facebook, Google, HubSpot or Outreach), you understand some content and/or information in those accounts (“Third Party Account Information”) may be transmitted into your account with us, and that Third Party Account Information transmitted to our Service is covered by this Privacy Policy. Certain information may be required to register with us or to take advantage of some of our features.

Information Collected Automatically

          Information Collected Automatically: Like many other commercial websites, we may also gather information in connection with your use of the website or Service through the use of cookies and other similar technologies such as server logs, pixel tags, web beacons, and JavaScript (collectively, “Cookies”) to enable us to recognize your web browser or device and tell us how and when you visit and use our Service, to analyze trends, to learn about our user base, and to operate and improve our Service. Cookies are small pieces of data—usually text files—placed on your computer, tablet, phone, or similar device when you use that device to visit our Service. We may also supplement the information we collect from you with information received from third parties, including third parties that have placed their own Cookies on your device(s). Your browser settings may allow you to transmit a “do not track” signal, “opt-out preference” signal, or other mechanism for exercising your choice regarding the collection of your information when you visit various websites. We will honor valid requests that we receive through such channels where required by law.

The Service may use both cookies that we implement, and cookies implemented by our suppliers and other Third Parties. “First-party” cookies allow your browser to engage with the actual website that you are visiting, whereas “third-party” cookies allow your browser to engage with third-party websites, such as the source of an ad that appears on the website you are visiting or a third-party analytics provider.

We use the following types of Cookies:

If you are located in the EEA or the UK, you may allow or reject the use of Cookies that are not strictly necessary when using our Service by changing your cookie preferences here.

Information about Interest-Based Advertisements: We may serve advertisements, and also allow third-party ad networks, including third-party ad servers, ad agencies, ad technology vendors and research firms, to serve advertisements through the Service. These advertisements may be targeted to users who fit certain general profile categories or display certain preferences or behaviors (“Interest-Based Ads”). Information for Internet-Based Ads (including Personal Data) may be provided to us by you, or derived from the usage patterns of particular users on the Service and/or services of third-parties. Such information may be gathered through tracking users’ activities across time and unaffiliated properties, including when you leave the Service. To accomplish this, we or our service providers may deliver Cookies, including a file (known as a “web beacon”) from an ad network to you through the Service. Web beacons allow ad networks to provide aggregated auditing, research and reporting for us and for advertisers. Web beacons also enable ad networks to serve targeted advertisements to you when you visit other websites. Web beacons allow ad networks to view, edit or set their own Cookies on your browser, just as if you had requested a web page from their site.

Without limiting the foregoing, we use Google Ads advertising features in the Service, which we use for the purposes set forth in this Privacy Policy. Through Google Ads, Google uses your Internet searches, Cookies, and similar identifiers (e.g., pixel tags) to collect information about your visits to the Service and your interaction with our products and services to generate targeted advertisements to you on other websites that you visit across the Internet. To opt out of remarketing advertising provided through Google, to customize your ad preferences, or to limit Google’s collection or use this information, visit Google’s Safety Center and Google’s Ad Settings and follow Google’s personalized ad opt-out instructions.

     Several media and marketing associations have developed an industry self-regulatory program to give consumers a better understanding of, and greater control over, ads that are customized based on a consumer’s online behavior across different websites and properties. To make choices about Interest-Based Ads from participating third parties, including to opt-out of receiving behaviorally targeted advertisements from participating organizations.

The criteria we use to determine how long to retain your Personal Data is described in the section below, titled “Data Security and Retention.”

As noted in the list above, we may communicate with you if you’ve provided us the means to do so. For example, if you’ve given us your e-mail address, we may send you promotional email offers on behalf of other businesses or email you about your use of the Service.  Also, we may receive a confirmation when you open an email from us, which helps us improve our Service. If you do not want to receive communications from us, you may opt out of e-mail alerts for saved lists/searches in your account settings and may unsubscribe from marketing e-mails by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of the e-mail in question.

Sales of Personal Data and Sharing of Personal Data with Certain Advertisers

At Pakistan Bliss, we collect information from a variety of sources (including information contributed directly by you and/or our user community) in order to compile Profiles about entities and individuals. Please refer to the chart in the section above titled “Categories of Personal Data We Collect” for a better understanding of the Personal Data we collect that constitutes Profile data.

In this section, we use the terms ‘sell’ and ‘share’ as those terms are defined in the CCPA. We do not have actual knowledge that we sell or share Personal Data of consumers under 16 years of age.  However, we do sell, and, in the preceding 12 months, we have sold your Profile data to our customers and data partners (such as resellers and syndication partners) in conjunction with our all-in-one prospecting solutions and private-company data offerings, which help customers and data partners grow their business and teams, subject to your right to opt-out of these sales (see the “Your Rights” section below for information about how to opt-out). A full list of the information we sell and have sold in the preceding 12 months is provided below.

We may also share, and, in the preceding 12 months, have shared your information (see the information we share and have shared in the preceding 12 months below) with certain advertisers in order to help provide our ads to you. This type of sharing is also subject to your right to opt out (see the “Your Rights” section below for information about how to opt-out).

Over the past twelve months, we have sold and/or shared the following categories of your Personal Data to the following categories of third parties:

Data Security and Retention

We seek to protect your Personal Data from unauthorized access, use and disclosure using appropriate physical, technical, organizational and administrative security measures based on the type of Personal Data and how we are processing that data.                                                            

You should also help protect your data by appropriately selecting and protecting your password and/or other sign-on mechanism; limiting access to your computer or device and browser; and signing off after you have finished accessing your account. Although we work to protect the privacy of your account and other Personal Data that we hold in our records, no security system is impenetrable, and unanticipated system failures or the efforts of malicious actors are an unfortunate reality on the Internet. Therefore, Pakistan Bliss cannot guarantee that Personal Data during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care will be absolutely safe from intrusion by others. 

We retain Personal Data about you for as long as you have an open account with us or as otherwise necessary to provide the Service. In some cases we retain Personal Data for longer, if doing so is necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes or collect fees owed, or is otherwise permitted or required by applicable law, rule or regulation.

Personal Data of Children

As noted in the Terms of Service, we do not knowingly collect or solicit Personal Data from children under 16. If you are a child under 16, please do not attempt to register for or otherwise use the Service or send us any Personal Data. If we learn we have collected Personal Data from a child under 16, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a child under 16 may have provided us Personal Data, please contact us.

California Resident Rights

If you are a California resident, you have the rights outlined in this section. Please see the “Exercising Your Rights” section below for instructions regarding how to exercise these rights. If there are any conflicts between this section and any other provision of this Privacy Policy and you are a California resident, the portion that is more protective of Personal Data shall control to the extent of such conflict. If you have any questions about this section or whether any of the following applies to you, please contact us.

Access

     You have a right to request the following information about our collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Data by emailing us.

Deletion

You have the right to request that we delete the Personal Data that we have collected from you. Under the CCPA, this right is subject to certain exceptions: for example, we may need to retain your Personal Data to provide you with the Service or complete a transaction or other action you have requested. If your deletion request is subject to one of these exceptions, we may deny your deletion request.

Correction

You have a right to request that we correct inaccurate Personal Data we maintain about you.

     Personal Data Sales/Sharing Opt-Out and Opt-In

You have the right to opt-out of the sale or sharing (as both terms are defined under the CCPA) of your Personal Data.

For information on how we process opt-out preference signals, see the section above, Information Collected Automatically.

Once you have submitted an opt-out request, we will not ask you to reauthorize the sale of your Personal Data for at least 12 months. However, you may change your mind and opt back in to Personal Data sales at any time by creating a new public profile for yourself, or opt back in to Personal Data sharing by adjusting your Cookies preferences.

Exercising Your Rights

You may exercise any of these rights by sending us a request that (1) provides sufficient information to allow us to verify that you are the person about whom we have collected Personal Data (such as your email address, first and last name, and/or government issued ID), and (2) describes your request in sufficient detail to allow us to understand, evaluate, and respond to it. Each request that meets both of these criteria will be considered a “Valid Request.” We may not respond to requests that do not meet these criteria. We will only use Personal Data provided in a Valid Request to verify you and complete your request. You do not need an account to submit a Valid Request.

You may designate, in writing or through a power of attorney document, an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf to exercise your rights. Before accepting such a request from an agent, we may require that the agent provide proof you have authorized them to act on your behalf, and we may need you to verify your identity directly with us.

We will work to respond to your Valid Request within 45 days of receipt. We will not charge you a fee for making a Valid Request unless your Valid Request(s) is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that your Valid Request warrants a fee, we will notify you of the fee and explain that decision before completing your request.

You may submit a Valid Request using the following methods:

We Will Not Discriminate Against You for Exercising Your Rights Under the CCPA

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the CCPA. We will not deny you our goods or services, charge you different prices or rates, or provide you a lower quality of goods and services if you exercise your rights under the CCPA. However, we may have different tiers of services as allowed by applicable data protection laws (including the CCPA) with varying prices, rates, or levels of quality of the goods or services you receive related to the value of Personal Data that we receive from you.
