// Privacy Policy

Rungutan is an online load testing platform operated by SC NETBEARS TEAM SRL, a company headquartered in Iasi, Romania ("we," "us," "our," and "Rungutan").

Our Service enables our Members to, among other things, monitor their website and perform load testing on domains owned by themselves. We also provide other related services, such as real-time data analytics and insights to help our Members track and personalize their website performance. Find out more about our Service here.

In this privacy policy, these terms have the following meanings:

“Mobile App(s)” means any one or all of the Rungutan applications available for Members to use on their mobile devices.

"Domain" is a hostname a Member may perform load testing on through our Service. In other words, a Domain is any hostname in a Member's Domain List that the Member has registered.

"Domain List" is a list of Domains a Member may perform load testing on through our Service.

"Member" means any person or entity that is registered with us to use the Service.

"Personal Information" means any information that identifies or can be used to identify an individual directly or indirectly. Examples of Personal Information include, but are not limited to, first and last name, date of birth, email address, gender, occupation, or other demographic information.

“Service” has the meaning given to it in our Standard Terms of Use.

"Rungutan Site(s)" has the meaning given to it in our Standard Terms of Use.

"Visitor" means, depending on the context, any person who visits any of our Rungutan Sites, offices, or otherwise engages with us at our events or in connection with our marketing or recruitment activities.

"you" and "your" means, depending on the context, either a Member, or a Visitor.

This section applies to the Personal Information we collect and process from a Member or potential Member through the provision of the Service. If you are not a Member, the Visitors section of this policy may be more applicable to you and your data. In this section, "you" and "your" refer to Members and potential Members.

The Personal Information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with Rungutan, your Rungutan account settings, the products and features you use, your location, and applicable law. However, the Personal Information we collect broadly falls into the following categories:

(i) Information you provide to us: You (or your organization) may provide certain Personal Information to us when you sign up for a Rungutan account and use the Service, consult with our customer service team, send us an email, integrate the Service with another website or service (for example, when you choose to connect your Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment platform with Rungutan), or communicate with us in any other way.

This information may include:

• Business contact information (such as your name, job title, organization, location, phone number, email address, and country);
• Marketing information (such as your contact preferences);
• Account log-in credentials (such as your email address or username and password when you sign up for an account with us);
• Troubleshooting and support data (which is data you provide or we otherwise collect in connection with support queries we receive from you. This may include contact or authentication data, the content of your chats and other communications with us, and the product or service you are using related to your help inquiry); and
• Payment information (including your credit card numbers and associated identifiers and billing address).

(ii) Information we collect automatically: When you use the Service, we may automatically collect or receive certain information about your device and usage of the Service (collectively “Service Usage Data”). In some (but not all) countries, including countries in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), this information is considered Personal Information under applicable data protection laws. We use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect some of this information. If you are using our Mobile App, we may collect this information using our software development kits (“SDKs”) or APIs the first time the SDK or API is initiated on your Mobile App. For further information, please review the section below and our Cookie Statement available here.

Service Usage Data may include:

• Device information: We collect information about the device and applications you use to access the Service, such as your IP address, your operating system, your browser ID, and other information about your system and connection. If you are using our Mobile App, we may also collect information about the cellular network associated with your mobile device, your mobile device’s operating system or platform, the type of mobile device you use, your mobile device’s name and unique device ID, and information about the features of our Mobile App that you accessed.

• Log data: Our web servers keep log files that record data each time a device accesses those servers and the nature of each access, including originating IP addresses and your activity in the Service (such as the date/time stamps associated with your usage, pages and files viewed, searches and other actions you take (for example, which features you used)), device event information (such as system activity, error reports (sometimes called ‘crash dumps’)), and hardware settings. We may also access metadata and other information associated with files that you upload into our Service.

• Usage data: We collect usage data about you whenever you interact with our Service, which may include the dates and times you access the Service and your browsing activities (such as what portions of the Service you used). We also collect information regarding the performance of the Service, including metrics related to the deliverability of emails and other communications you send through the Service. If you are using our Mobile App, we may collect information about how often you use the Mobile App and other performance data. This information allows us to improve the content and operation of the Service, and facilitate research and analysis of the Service.

(iii) Information we collect from other sources: From time to time, we may obtain information about you from third-party sources, such as public databases, social media platforms, third-party data providers, and our joint marketing partners.

Examples of the information we receive from other sources include demographic information (such as age and gender), device information (such as IP addresses), location (such as city and state), and online behavioral data (such as information about your use of social media websites, page view information and search results and links). We use this information, alone or in combination with other Personal Information we collect, to enhance our ability to provide relevant marketing and content to you and to develop and provide you with more relevant products, features, and service.

We may use the Personal Information we collect or receive through the Service (alone or in combination with other data we source) for the purposes and on the legal bases identified below:

• To bill and collect money owed to us by you to perform our contract with you for the use of the Service or where we have not entered into a contract with you, in accordance with our legitimate interests to operate and administer our Service. This includes sending you emails, invoices, receipts, notices of delinquency, and alerting you if we need a different credit card number. We use third parties for secure credit card transaction processing, and those third parties collect billing information to process your orders and credit card payments. To learn more about the steps we take to safeguard that data, see the "Our Security" section of this privacy policy.
• To send you system alert messages in reliance on our legitimate interests in administering the Service and providing certain features. For example, we may inform you about temporary or permanent changes to our Service, such as planned outages, or send you account, security or compliance notifications, such as new features, version updates, releases, abuse warnings, and changes to this privacy policy.
• To communicate with you about your account and provide customer support to perform our contract with you for the use of the Service or where we have not entered into a contract with you, in reliance on our legitimate interests in administering and supporting our Service. For example, if you use our Mobile Apps, we may ask you if you want to receive push notifications about activity in your account. If you have opted in to these push notifications and no longer want to receive them, you may turn them off through your operating system.
• To enforce compliance with our Standard Terms of Use and applicable law, and to protect the rights and safety of our Members in reliance on our legitimate interest to protect against misuse or abuse of our Service and to pursue remedies available. This may include developing tools and algorithms that help us prevent violations. For example, sometimes we review the content our Members send or display to ensure it complies with our Standard Terms of Use. To improve that process, we have software that helps us find content that may violate our Standard Terms of Use. We may or our third-party service provider may also review content that our Members send or display. This benefits all Members who comply with our Standard Terms of Use because it reduces abuse and helps us maintain a reliable platform. Please do not use Rungutan to send or display confidential information.
• To meet legal requirements, including complying with court orders, valid discovery requests, valid subpoenas, and other appropriate legal mechanisms.
• To provide information to representatives and advisors, including attorneys and accountants, to help us comply with legal, accounting, or security requirements in reliance on our legitimate interests.
• To prosecute and defend a court, arbitration, or similar legal proceeding.
• To respond to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
• To provide, support and improve the Service to perform our contract with you for the use of the Service or where we have not entered into a contract with you, in reliance on our legitimate interests in administering and improving the Service and providing certain features. For example, this may include sharing your information with third parties in order to provide and support our Service or to make certain features of the Service available to you. When we share your Personal Information with third parties, we take steps to protect your information in a manner that is consistent with our obligations under applicable privacy laws. For further information about how we share your information, refer to Section 5 below.
• To provide suggestions to you and to provide tailored features within our Service that optimize and personalize your experience in reliance on our legitimate interests in administering the Service and providing certain features. This includes adding features that compare Members’ load testing workflows, using data to suggest other breaking points that you may be interested to peform load testing on, or using data to recommend products or services that you may be interested in or that may be relevant to you. Some of these suggestions are generated through analysis of the data used in our data analytics projects, as described below.
• To perform data analytics projects in reliance on our legitimate business interests in improving and enhancing our products and services for our Members. Our data analytics projects use data from Rungutan accounts, including Personal Information of Domains, to provide and improve the Service. We use information like your testing habits and your Domains' testing history, so we can make more informed predictions, decisions, and products for our Members. For example, we use data from Rungutan accounts to enable product recommendation, and predicted load testing patterns for our Members. If you prefer not to have your data used for this purpose, you can send us a request through email here to opt out of data analytics projects. As always, we take the privacy of Personal Information seriously, and will continue to implement appropriate safeguards to protect this Personal Information from misuse or unauthorized disclosure.
• To personalize the Service, content and advertisements we serve to you in reliance on our legitimate interests in supporting our marketing activities and providing certain features within the Service. We may use your Personal Information to serve you specifically, such as to deliver a product or service according to your preferences or restrictions, to provide more personalized features or for advertising or targeting purposes in accordance with this privacy policy.

We may use the Personal Information we collect or receive through the Service, as a processor and as otherwise stated in this privacy policy, to enable your use of the integrations and plugins you choose to connect to your Rungutan account. For instance, if you choose to connect a Google integration to your Rungutan account, we’ll ask you to grant us permission to view and/or process your account identity. This allows us to configure your Google account integration(s) in accordance with your preferences. For example, if you wanted to use the Google Login integration to sign in to our Service, we would need to access your Google Account to validate your identity.

We and our third-party partners may use various technologies to collect and store Service Usage Data when you use our Service (as discussed above), and this may include using cookies and similar tracking technologies, such as pixels, web beacons, and if you use our Mobile Apps, through our SDKs deployed on your mobile device.

Our use of cookies and other tracking technologies is discussed in more detail in our Cookie Statement available here.

Depending on the country in which you reside, you may have the following data protection rights:

• To access; correct; update; port; delete; restrict; or object to our processing of your Personal Information.
• You can manage your individual account and profile settings by contacting us directly via email at here. You can also manage information about your Domains within the dashboard provided through the Rungutan platform to assist you with responding to requests to add, validate or remove Domains from your account. Rungutan takes reasonable steps to ensure that the data we collect is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete and up to date.
• The right to complain to a data protection authority about the collection and use of Personal Information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority. Contact details for data protection authorities in the EEA and UK are available here and Switzerland are available here.
• Similarly, if Personal Information is collected or processed on the basis of consent, the data subject can withdraw their consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your Personal Information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

We respond to all requests we receive from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in accordance with applicable data protection law. We may ask you to verify your identity in order to help us respond efficiently to your request.

This section applies to the information we process about our Members’ Domains as a data controller. Our Service is intended for use by our Members. As a result, for much of the Personal Information we collect and process about Domains through the Service, we act as a processor on behalf of our Members. Rungutan is not responsible for the privacy or security practices of our Members, which may differ from those set forth in this privacy policy. Please check with individual Members about the policies they have in place. For purposes of this section, "you" and "your" refer to Domains.

The Personal Information that we may collect or receive about you broadly falls into the following categories:

(i) Information we receive about Domains from our Members: A Member may provide Personal Information about the Domain to us through the Service. When a Member adds a new Domain or integrates the Service with another website or service (for example, when a Member chooses to connect their Continouos Integration / Continuous Deployment account with Rungutan), the Member may provide us with certain contact information or other Personal Information about the Domain such as hostname and links available on that Domain.

• Device information: We collect information about the Domain when creating load tests through our Service, such as the Domain's IP address and other information about your system and connection.
• Usage data: It is important for us to ensure the security and reliability of the Service we provide. Therefore, we also collect analytics data about your load testing performance created through the Service, which may include dates and times you access the Domains. This information also allows us to ensure compliance with our Standard Terms of Use and Acceptable Use Policy, to monitor and prevent service abuse, and to ensure we attain certain usage standards and metrics in relation to our Service. We also collect information regarding the performance of the Service, including metrics related to the impact of our load tests that our Members send through the Service. This information allows us to improve the content and operation of the Service and facilitate research and perform analysis into the use and performance of the Service.

We may use the Personal Information we collect or receive about you in reliance on our (and where applicable, our Members’) legitimate interests for the following purposes:

• To enforce compliance with our Standard Terms of Use and applicable law. This may include utilizing usage data and developing tools and algorithms that help us prevent violations.
• To protect the rights and safety of Members, third parties, or Rungutan. For example, sometimes we review the content of our Members’ load tests to make sure they comply with our Standard Terms of Use. To improve that process, we have software that helps us find load tests that may violate our Standard Terms of Use. We, or our third-party service provider, may review those particular load tests, which may include your contact information. This reduces the amount of malevolent attacks performed by 3rd party actors being sent through our servers and helps us maintain high availability.
• To meet legal requirements, including complying with court orders, valid discovery requests, valid subpoenas, and other appropriate legal mechanisms.
• To provide information to representatives and advisors, including attorneys and accountants, to help us comply with legal, accounting, or security requirements.
• To prosecute and defend a court, arbitration, or similar legal proceeding.
• To respond to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
• To provide, support and improve the Service. For example, this may include sharing your information with third parties in order to provide and support our Service or to make certain features of the Service available to our Members. When we share Personal Information with third parties, we take steps to protect your information in a manner that is consistent with applicable privacy laws. For further information about how we share information, refer to Section 5 below.
• To perform data analytics projects. Our data analytics projects use data from Rungutan accounts, including your Personal Information, to provide and improve the Service. We use information, like your purchase history, provided to us by Members, so we can make more informed predictions, decisions, and products for our Members. For example, we use data from Rungutan accounts to enable product recommendation. If you prefer your data not to be used in this manner, you can opt out of data analytics projects at any time by emailing us here.
• To carry out other business purposes. To carry out other legitimate business purposes, as well as other lawful purposes about which we will notify you.

We and our third-party partners may use various technologies to automatically collect and store certain device and usage information (as discussed above) when you interact with a Member’s load test, and this may include using cookies and similar tracking technologies, such as pixels and web beacons or if a Member is using our Mobile App, we may collect this information through our SDKs deployed on our Members mobile device. For example, we use web beacons in the emails we send on behalf of our Members.

Our use of cookies and other tracking technologies is discussed in more detail in our Cookie Statement available here.

Depending on the country in which you reside, you may have the following data protection rights:

• To access; correct; update; port; delete; restrict or object to our processing of your Personal Information.

If you are located in the EEA or UK, our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Information described above will depend on the Personal Information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we will normally collect and use Personal Information from you where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data-protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. Our legitimate interests are described in more detail in this privacy policy in the sections above titled “Use of Personal Information”, but they typically include improving, maintaining, providing, and enhancing our technology, products, and services; ensuring the security of the Service and our Rungutan Sites; and supporting our marketing activities.

If you are a Member, we may need the Personal Information to perform a contract with you. In some limited cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect Personal Information from you. If we ask you to provide Personal Information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your Personal Information is mandatory or not, as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your Personal Information.

Members and Visitors who have opted in to our marketing emails can opt out of receiving marketing emails from us at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of our marketing messages.

Also, all opt-out requests can be made by emailing us using the contact details provided in the "Questions and Concerns" section below. Please note that some communications (such as service messages, account notifications, billing information) are considered transactional and necessary for account management, and Members cannot opt out of these messages unless you cancel your Rungutan account.

If you have any questions about the security of your Personal Information, you may contact us here.

Rungutan accounts require a username and password to log in. Members must keep their username and password secure, and never disclose it to a third party. Because the information in a Member’s Rungutan account is private, account passwords are hashed, which means we cannot see a Member’s password. We cannot resend forgotten passwords either. We will only provide Members with instructions on how to reset them.

If you have requested not to receive further direct marketing messages, we may continue to provide you with messages that are not regarded as "direct marketing" under the Australian Privacy Act, including changes to our terms, system alerts, and other information related to your account as permitted under the Australian Privacy Act and the Spam Act 2003 (Cth).

• Our servers are located in North America, South America, Europe and Africa. In addition, we or our subcontractors may use cloud technology to store or process Personal Information, which may result in storage of data outside Australia. It is not practicable for us to specify in advance which country will have jurisdiction over this type of offshore activity. All of our subcontractors, however, are required to comply with the Australian Privacy Act in relation to the transfer or storage of Personal Information overseas.
• We may also share your Personal Information outside of Australia to our business operations in other countries. While it is not practicable for us to specify in advance each country where your Personal Information may be disclosed, typically we may disclose your Personal Information to the United States, Canada and the European Union.
• You may access the Personal Information we hold about you. If you wish to access your Personal Information, please contact us directly by emailing us at here. We will respond to all requests for access within a reasonable time.

If you think the information we hold about you is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant, or misleading, we will take reasonable steps, consistent with our obligations under the Australian Privacy Act, to correct that information upon your request. If you find that the information we have is not up to date or is inaccurate or incomplete, please contact us in writing here, so we can update our records. We will respond to all requests for correction within a reasonable time.

• If you are unsatisfied with our response to a privacy matter, you may consult either an independent advisor or contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner for additional help. We will provide our full cooperation if you pursue this course of action.

We retain Personal Information where we have an ongoing legitimate business or legal need to do so. Our retention periods will vary depending on the type of data involved, but, generally, we'll refer to these criteria in order to determine retention period:

• Whether we have a legal or contractual need to retain the data.
• Whether the data is necessary to provide our Service.
• Whether our Members have the ability to access and delete the data within their Rungutan accounts.
• Whether our Members would reasonably expect that we would retain the data until they remove it or until their Rungutan accounts are closed or terminated.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your Personal Information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your Personal Information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) provides consumers with specific rights regarding their Personal Information. You have the right to request that businesses subject to the CCPA (which may include our Members with whom you have a relationship) disclose certain information to you about their collection and use of your Personal Information over the past 12 months. In addition, you have the right to ask such businesses to delete Personal Information collected from you, subject to certain exceptions. If the business sells Personal Information, you have a right to opt-out of that sale. Finally, a business cannot discriminate against you for exercising a CCPA right.

When offering services to its Members, Rungutan acts as a “service provider” under the CCPA and our receipt and collection of any consumer Personal Information is completed on behalf of our Members in order for us to provide the Service. Please direct any requests for access or deletion of your Personal Information under the CCPA to the Member with whom you have a direct relationship.

Consistent with California law, if you choose to exercise your applicable CCPA rights, we won’t charge you different prices or provide you a different quality of services. If we ever offer a financial incentive or product enhancement that is contingent upon you providing your Personal Information, we will not do so unless the benefits to you are reasonably related to the value of the Personal Information that you provide to us.

Certain state laws require us to indicate whether we honor “Do Not Track” settings in your browser. Rungutan adheres to the standards set out in this Privacy Policy and does not monitor or follow any Do Not Track browser requests.

We may change this privacy policy at any time and from time to time. The most recent version of the privacy policy is reflected by the version date located at the top of this privacy policy. All updates and amendments are effective immediately upon notice, which we may give by any means, including, but not limited to, by posting a revised version of this privacy policy or other notice on the Rungutan Sites. We encourage you to review this privacy policy often to stay informed of changes that may affect you. Our electronically or otherwise properly stored copies of this privacy policy are each deemed to be the true, complete, valid, authentic, and enforceable copy of the version of this privacy policy that was in effect on each respective date you visited the Rungutan Site.

If you have any questions or comments, or if you have a concern about the way in which we have handled any privacy matter, please use our contact form to send us a message. You may also contact us by email here.
