Your use of others’ personal information
In using our Services, you may provide us with the personal information of others (for example, the names and addresses of your accounting clients or employees). We are only a “service provider” of such information.
As your service provider, we only process (collect, use, disclose, etc.) such information as directed by you to provide you our Services. For example, we will never use your customers’ or employees’ data to market independently or to advertise them unless they are also using our Services directly. We also do not and will not “sell” your customers’ information.
You are responsible for the personal information of others you disclose to us via our Services and for ensuring that your instructions regarding the processing of such information comply with applicable data protection laws.
Your rights over your information
Depending on your use of our Services and where you reside, you may have the right to request access to, correct, amend, delete, or object to specific uses of your personal information (for example, by unsubscribing from direct marketing emails).
We strive to provide you with the ability to exercise these changes yourself via our Services. For example, you can access, update and correct most of your information from your account settings pages. If you cannot exercise a certain change via our Services, you can always email our privacy team at privacy@profityo.com. Please note that if you send us a request relating to your personal information, we have to make sure that it is you before we can respond. To do so, we may ask to see documentation verifying your identity.
Please also note that there is a difference between the information we decide to collect for our purposes (for example, your account sign-up information) and the information our Customers and Accountant Clients direct us to store or process via our Services (for example, names of employees or clients). Suppose you are an individual who wishes to exercise your rights over the information that one of our Customers or Accountant Clients may be storing or processing via our Services for their purposes. In that case, you will need to contact the Customer or Accountant Client directly. In this scenario, we are only a service provider acting in their direction, and we cannot decide how to process their information.
