Privacy Policy
Last Updated: June 1, 2022
This Privacy Policy describes how Spekit Inc. (“Spekit”, “We”, “Us” or “Our”) collect, use, protect and share your data when you install, access or use any websites, applications, browser extensions, mobile apps, or other digital properties owned by Us or/and on which this Privacy Policy is posted or referenced or when you otherwise interact with Us, including when you contact Us for customer support (collectively, the “Services”). By using the Services, you consent to the data practices described in this Privacy Policy.
We process information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“Personal Data”) in accordance with this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy provides the necessary information regarding rights and obligations for the concerned parties, and explains how, why and when We process Personal Data.
1. Collection of Personal Data
We collect Personal Data necessary to operate, maintain and provide you the features and functionality of the Services, to analyze how the Services are used, diagnose service or technical problems, maintain security, personalize content, remember information to help you efficiently access your account, monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors, traffic, and demographic patterns, and track Content and users as necessary to comply with our legal obligations. “Content” refers to information, messages, text and other data which is collected, stored, surfaced, and shared through the use of the Services.
Your Personal Data is collected when you install, access, or use the Services, and when you otherwise interact with the Services.
Personal Data We collect falls into the following categories:
- Identifying information and civil status
- Information about your company and current position
- Login information
- Location information
- Internet or other similar network activity information
We also collect, use and share Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. “Aggregated Data” may be derived from your Personal Data but is not considered Personal Data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, We may aggregate your internet or other similar network activity information to calculate the percentage of users accessing Our software (including amount of usage) or a specific web app feature. However, if We combine or connect Aggregated Data with your Personal Data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, We treat the combined data as Personal Data which will be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We do not collect any special categories of Personal Data about you (such as details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data). Nor do We collect any information about criminal convictions and offenses.
Data You Provide to Spekit
We collect Personal Data you provide directly to Spekit, in particular when you complete a data collection form.
For example, We collect Personal Data when you create an account, use the Services, participate in a contest or promotion, request customer support or otherwise communicate with Spekit.
The Personal Data may include the following data as well as any other type of information that We specifically request you to provide to Spekit through collection forms, such as:
- Name
- Email address
- Postal address
- Phone number
- Information about your company and current position
You may also provide Content that you post to the Service, or is otherwise collected through your use of the Services. Your Content and metadata about your Content may be viewed by other users in accordance with your settings on the Service. Unless Content is made viewable in accordance with your settings on the Service, then neither Spekit, Spekit employees, Spekit contractors nor agents will view your Content except: (i) to maintain, provide or improve the Service; (ii) to help you and respond to your request related to your Content, including support requests; (iii) to review and monitor (if We elect to do so) compliance with our SaaS Agreement or a similar agreement (including Our Acceptable Use Policy); (iv) to comply with Our legal obligations or to cooperate with law enforcement; or (v) as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. We have the right to remove any information you post, if deemed to be in violation of Our Acceptable Use Policy.
Data We Collect Automatically

If you initially consent to Spekit’s collection of location information, you may be able to subsequently stop the collection through your device operating system settings. You may also stop the collection of location information by following the standard uninstall process to remove any of Our applications from your device.
- Connected Salesforce instance and user information: In order to use the Services you may be required to connect to a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system (e.g. Salesforce), in which event Spekit is given permission to access the CRM system in order to provide the Services.
Cookies
The Services use cookies and similar technologies such as pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs, and JavaScript (collectively, “Cookies”) to enable Our servers to recognize your web browser and tell us how and when you visit and use Our Services, to analyze trends, learn about Our user base and operate and improve Our Services. 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 Services. 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). Please note that because of Our use of Cookies, the Services do not support “Do Not Track” requests sent from a browser at this time.
- Essential Cookies. Essential Cookies are required for providing you with features or services that you have requested. For example, certain Cookies enable you to log into secure areas of Our Services. Disabling these Cookies may make certain features and services unavailable.

These Cookies help Us to personalize Our content for you, greet you by name, and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
- Performance/Analytical Cookies. Performance/Analytical Cookies allow Us to understand how visitors use Our Services such as by collecting information about the number of visitors to the Services, what pages visitors view on Our Services and how long visitors are viewing pages on the Services. For example, We use cookies in connection with analytics services both on Spekit’s website and application.
- Behavioral Advertising/Third Party Cookies. Behavioral Advertising/Third Party Cookies are used to provide tailored advertising to you when you subsequently visit other websites.
You can decide whether or not to accept Cookies through your internet browser’s settings. Most browsers have an option for turning off the Cookie feature, which will prevent your browser from accepting new Cookies, as well as (depending on the sophistication of your browser software) allow you to decide on acceptance of each new Cookie in a variety of ways. You can also delete all Cookies that are already on your computer. If you do this, however, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit the Services and some of the Services and functionalities may not work.
Data We Collect From Other Sources
In order to enhance Our ability to provide relevant marketing, offers, and Services to you, and update Our records, We may obtain information about you from other sources. We may combine such information with other information We have collected about you. This helps Us to update, expand and analyze Our records, identify new customers, and create more tailored advertising to provide offers and services that may be of interest to you. These sources may include public databases, joint marketing partners, social media platforms, as well as other third-party sources. As an example, if you participate in a Spekit Referral program, We may collect information related to you and/or your referral.
Additionally, Spekit may receive information about you from other third parties whom you have authorized to share your information or who collect information in connection with co-branded offerings.

Our Services include features that allow users to integrate with various third-party applications and content vendors.

For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection and processing in connection with third-party applications, please visit the privacy policies of the entities that provide these applications and/or content.
The Services may also contain links to other websites, applications or online services that are operated and maintained by other entities and that are not under Our control of or managed by Us. Such links do not constitute an endorsement by Us of such other websites, applications, or online services, the content displayed therein, or the persons or entities associated therewith. This Privacy Policy does not cover the practices of such other entities, instead their own privacy policies and terms of service will apply. We make no representation or warranty as to the privacy policies of any other entities, including the providers of third party applications. If you are submitting information to any such other entity through Our Services, We encourage you to review and understand such entity’s applicable policies.
5. Data Retention
We retain Personal Data collected from you where We have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements).
When We have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your Personal Data, We will either delete or anonymise it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Data has been stored in backup archives), then We will securely store your Personal Data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
6. Data Transfer
Personal Data that you provide while in the EU or an EAA member state will be transferred to the United States. Such a transfer is permissible when necessary for the performance of a contract between you and Spekit, if Spekit obtains your explicit consent to such transfer, or if it is in Spekit’s legitimate interest to transfer the Personal Data. The laws in the United States may not be as protective of your privacy as those in your location. If We transfer Personal Data from the EU, We will provide an appropriate safeguard such as binding corporate rules, standard data protection clauses, or your consent.
7. Security
We are committed to taking appropriate measures designed to keep your Personal Data secure. Our technical, administrative and physical procedures are designed to protect Personal Data from loss, theft, misuse and accidental, unlawful or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, use and destruction. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the data submitted to Us, both during transmission and once it is received.
