1. Use of the Subscription Service 

The Influenctity Subscription Service
Our online Subscription Service allows users (typically small to medium size businesses) to search influencers, get audience insights and influencer performance, create and manage influencer marketing campaigns, and track influencer posts. The Subscription Service can also be used to help organize influencer data about a company’s marketing strategy (e.g., influencers, posts, campaigns, etc.). The information added to the Subscription Service, either by influencers providing their contact information or when a Subscription Service user adds the information, is stored and managed on our service providers' servers. Influencity provides the Subscription Service to our customers for their own marketing and customer service needs.

Use by Influencity
We use our own Subscription Service to build influencer campaigns that people can learn more about Influencity. Information that we collect and manage using the Subscription Service for our own marketing belongs to us and is used, disclosed and protected according to the Influencity Privacy Policy.

Use by Our Customers
Our customers use the Subscription Service to build influencer campaigns that people can learn more about their business. When customers use the Subscription service, they may collect Personal Information such as first and last name, email address, physical address, or phone number. Influencity does not control the content or the types of information that our customers may choose to collect or manage using the Subscription Service. That information belongs to them and is used, disclosed and protected by them according to their privacy policies. Influencity processes our customers' information as they direct and in accordance with our agreements with our customers, and we store it on our service providers' servers.
Our agreements with our customers prohibit us from using that information, except as necessary to provide and improve the Subscription Service, as permitted by this Product Privacy Policy, and as required by law.
We use the information collected through our Subscription Service by our customers for the following purposes: to provide the Subscription Service (which may include the detection, prevention and resolution of security and technical issues); to respond to customer support requests; and otherwise to fulfill the obligations under the Influencity Customer Terms of Service.
We have no direct relationship with individuals, “Influencers”, who provide Personal Information to our customers. Our customers control and are responsible for correcting, deleting or updating information they have collected from using the Subscription Service. We may work with our customers to help them provide notice to their influencers about their data collection, processing and usage.

6. How We Transfer Data We Collect Internationally

International transfers to third parties

Some of the third parties described in this privacy policy, which provide services to us under contract, are based in other countries that may not have equivalent privacy and data protection laws to the country in which you reside.

In this regard, service providers outside the EEA have signed the corresponding standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission ("STC"), an agreement signed between the two entities by which the non-EU company guarantees that it applies European data protection standards.

Therefore, the use of these providers does not result in a lesser degree of protection of your personal data than the use of providers located in the European Union. You can consult the content of the TCHs in the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/publications/standard-contractual-clauses-controllers-and-processors_en
