Zumiplan Privacy Policy

Template — review with counsel before publishing Last updated: [date]

Zumiplan is a project portfolio management service operated by Measured Innovation LLC ("we", "us"), [address], United States.

This policy explains what personal information we handle, why, and what rights you have. It covers our website at zumiplan.com and the Zumiplan application.

The two roles we play

When you visit our website or contact us, we decide how your information is used. We are the controller, and this policy governs that use. When your employer or client uses Zumiplan, they decide what goes into the system. They are the controller and we are the processor, acting on their instructions under a data processing agreement. If your details appear in Zumiplan because your organization put them there, contact that organization about your data. We will refer any request you send us to them and help them respond.

What we collect

Account information. Name, email address and password when an account is created. Job title, department and working capacity if entered. Information your organization enters. Project records, plans, tasks, financial forecasts, team membership, work assignments and any files uploaded. Usage information. Sign-in times, changes made within the application (recorded in an activity log visible to your organization's administrators), and technical information such as browser type and IP address. Website information. Pages visited and how you reached us, where you consent to analytics cookies.

We do not ask for and the Service is not designed to hold special category data such as health, racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, biometric or genetic data, government identifiers, or payment card numbers.

Why we use it, and our legal basis

PurposeLegal basis (UK/EU GDPR)

Authentication and security, including the activity logLegitimate interests in protecting the service and our customers
Support and responding to your enquiriesPerformance of a contract, or legitimate interests
Service announcements and essential noticesPerformance of a contract

Meeting legal and accounting obligationsLegal obligation

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have considered your rights and concluded they are not overridden. You may object at any time using the contact details below.

Cookies

We use cookies strictly necessary to keep you signed in and to keep the service secure. These cannot be switched off.

Any analytics or marketing cookies are set only with your consent, and you can change or withdraw that choice at any time through the cookie settings on our website. We honour Global Privacy Control signals as an opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal information.

Sharing

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

We share information with service providers who help us operate Zumiplan, each bound by contract to protect it and to use it only on our instructions. Our current providers are listed at [link to your sub-processor page] and include our database and hosting providers.

We may also disclose information where required by law, to protect our rights or someone's safety, or as part of a merger or acquisition, in which case we will notify affected customers.

International transfers

We are based in the United States, and information is processed there.

Where information is transferred from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we use the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, together with the UK Addendum where relevant, and we assess whether additional safeguards are needed. You may request a copy of these safeguards using the contact details below.

How long we keep it

Account and project data is kept while your organization's subscription is active.

After termination, data may be exported for 30 days, then deleted within 60 days. Backup copies are removed within 90 days on the ordinary backup cycle.

Activity log entries are kept for [12 months]. Records we must keep for tax or accounting purposes are kept for [7 years]. Marketing contact details are kept until you unsubscribe.

Security

Access to each customer's data is restricted at the database level, so signed-in users can reach only their own organization's records. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is governed by user roles, and changes to records are logged.

We do not have standing access to your organization's account. Where we need to look at it to investigate a fault or answer a support request, a member of our team is given a read-only support role for that account, which allows viewing but no changes, and it is removed when the work is done. Anything we do while in an account appears in that account's activity log. A small number of our personnel also hold administrative credentials to the underlying database platform, which are needed to operate, back up and repair the service.

No system is perfectly secure. If a breach affects your personal information, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours where required, and notify you and our affected customers without undue delay.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

To exercise any right, contact us at [privacy@zumiplan.com]. We will verify your identity before responding.

We respond within one month for GDPR and UK GDPR requests, extendable by two further months for complex requests, and within 45 days for CCPA/CPRA requests, extendable once by a further 45 days. You may use an authorized agent where your law permits.

If your information is in Zumiplan because an organization put it there, we will pass your request to that organization, who is responsible for answering it.

Complaints

If you are in the EEA or UK you may complain to your local supervisory authority. In Ireland this is the Data Protection Commission; in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office. California residents may contact the California Privacy Protection Agency or the Attorney General. We would appreciate the chance to resolve your concern first.

Children

Zumiplan is a workplace tool and is not directed at anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us and we will delete it.

Automated decision-making

We do not use your personal information to make automated decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects, and we do not use it to train machine learning models.

Changes

We will post any changes here and update the date above. For material changes affecting your rights, we will give notice by email or in the application before they take effect.
