SandLogic Labs Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 20, 2021

SandLogic Labs (“SandLogic Labs” or “we”) values your privacy. At our website, https://www.SandLogic.com / https://www.SandLogic.AI  (the “Site”), we provide a social information sharing network for business professionals. In this Privacy Policy (“Policy”), we describe how we collect, use, and disclose information that we obtain from you when you visit our Site or use our services and products for Site visitors or for vendors (“Services”).

By visiting the Site, or using any of our Services, you acknowledge that your personal information (information about an identified or identifiable individual, like your name or email address) will be handled as described in this Policy. Your use of our Site or Services,
and any dispute over privacy, is subject to this Policy and either our Terms and Conditions or, with respect to use by vendor personnel under the vendor’s with SandLogic Labs, that agreement, including the sections on limitations on damages and the resolution of disputes in the Terms or applicable vendor agreement.

The Information We Collect About You

We may collect information about you directly from you and from third parties.

The type of information that we collect about you varies based on your interaction with our Site and our Services.

  • Information We Collect Directly From You. We will collect information directly from you when you interact with certain portions of our Site, contact us, and use our Services.
    • Registration/Account Creation. Specifically, we require registration and/or account creation to access certain features of our Site (e.g., to post a review or make a comment). You may register with our Site by providing your email address. If, however, you seek to post a review or make a comment, then you must create an account by using your log in credentials
      for certain social networking sites (currently LinkedIn®). SandLogic Labs will store your LinkedIn® profile information as part of your SandLogic Labs profile, and we may share your profile information with third parties as described below under “How We Share Your Information”. We may later offer additional means of registration or collect additional information as part of the account registration process.

      As part of your user profile, you may (but are not required) to submit additional information, including, for example, your picture, a “headline” describing you, name, country, city, state, industry, job type, department,
      expertise, or other demographic data.
    • Other Features. We will request additional information from you to access certain features. You may submit reviews of third parties’ products/services on our Site, as described in more detail below. If you want to download a document, access a free trial or if you request to be contacted by a vendor, we will ask you for additional information, including but not limited to your phone number, your company, your title and other information pertinent to the action that you are taking on the Site.
  • Information We Collect Automatically. We may automatically collect the following information about your use of our Site or Services through cookies, web beacons, and other technologies: your browser type and operating system; web pages you view; links you click; your IP address; the length of time you visit our Site and or use our Services; the referring webpage that led you to our Site; and a unique code assigned to your browser or device. Please see the discussion below entitled “Cookies and Other Tracking Mechanisms” for additional Information.
  • Information that We Collect About You from Social Networking Sites. When you log into our Site using your social networking credentials, we will request access to your profile and your email address. If you seek to use other features of our Services, such as to invite your colleagues to join our Site, we will request additional permissions from you. We will request your permission before accessing the information in your social networking site. If you decline to grant us permission, we may be unable to perform the service that you request.
    We store some information that we receive from social networking sites with other information that we collect from you with your approval. The social networking site controls the information that it collects from you. For information about how the social networking site may use and disclose your information, including any information you make public, please consult its privacy policy. We have no control over how any third-party site uses or discloses the personal information it collects about you.
  • Information We Collect From Other Third Parties. We also may collect personal information about you from other third parties, including internet service providers; operating systems and platforms; data brokers; data analytics providers, social media networks such as LinkedIn, and public records.

Your Reviews

When you post a review, you have the option to mark it “Anonymous.” If you do so, we will not display your name, company name, or job title in connection with your review, but other users viewing the review will see your role, department, industry, and the size of your company. You may update your choice at any time, but please note that third parties and other users of the Site already may have had access to your review in association with your name and that there might be cached copies and static content of the Site in those third parties’ possession, including in publicly available third-party services, such as search engines. As such, complete copies of your review, linked to your name, may be viewable elsewhere on the Internet even if we make your review Anonymous when displaying it on our Site. (The same thing is true for other changes you may make to a review, as described in the “Access to Your Personal Information” section below.) Please note that you will need to exercise your choice for each review that you post.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information, including your personal information (collectively “information”) for the following purposes:

  • To provide our Services.
  • To communicate with you about your use of our Services, to respond to your inquiries, to fulfill your orders, and for other customer service purposes, which may include communicating with you via email.
  • To tailor the content and information that we may send or display to you,
    personalized help and instructions, and to otherwise personalize your experiences
    while using the Site or our Services.
  • For customer loyalty programs.
  • For marketing and promotional purposes to send you news, newsletters, or marketing materials about SandLogic Labs products or services that may interest you, or special offers (such as incentives for reviewing products or services you’ve used) from us or from companies listed on our Site. We also may use the information that we learn about you to assist us in advertising our Services in various forums, including on third party websites, on social media sites, among other means. You may opt-out of SandLogic Labs marketing emails at any time in your communication preferences.
  • To better understand how users access and use our Site and Services, both on an aggregated and individualized basis, to improve our Site and Services and respond to user desires and preferences, and for other research and analytical purposes.
  • To address legal requirements.
  • To investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected fraud, situations
    involving potential threats to the safety of any person, violations of our Terms of
    Service, or other illegal activities, or to otherwise establish, exercise, or defend our legal rights.

How We Share Your Information

We may share your information as follows:

  • SandLogic Labs Users. Registered users may control certain privacy settings on our Site. As a default, your full profile (your “Profile Information”) will be available to all visitors to our Site, including non-registered users. You may change this setting to provide more or less visibility by logging into your account and choosing your preferred privacy setting. If you change your privacy settings to hide your name and company name, all visitors to our Site will still be able to see the size and industry of your company and your job type and department (should you choose to provide this information) (your “Demographic Profile”).
  • Your Social Networking Contacts. If you grant the requested permissions, we will have access to your contacts at the various social networking sites, and, with your express consent, we may invite your contacts to join our Site and our Services.
  • Service Providers. We may disclose the information we collect from you to third party vendors, service providers, contractors or agents who perform functions on our behalf, such as data storage and hosting providers, email service providers, analytics providers, network and system management providers, communications tools, IT support providers, CRM providers, incentive providers, and accounting services.
  • Companies Listed on the SandLogic Labs Site. We may share your review(s) with the companies or providers of the products/services that you reviewed or with the companies listed on our site. Some of the listed companies are customers of our Services. The scope of information that we will share depends on the privacy settings on your review(s) at the time the sharing happens.

    If you chose to post your review anonymously, we will share the content of your review and your Demographic Profile.

    If you do not post your review on an Anonymous basis, then we will share the content of your review and your Profile Information in accordance with the privacy settings on each of your reviews, which you can control by contacting hello@SandLogic.com.

    Updates to your privacy settings may take up to 24 hours to be fully implemented, but they will not have retroactive effect. For example, if we share a review with the company whose product you reviewed, we will include your name if you have not marked the review as “Anonymous”. If you later change the review to “Anonymous”, this will not cause deletion of your name from that company’s record of your review, as they received it prior to that change. The same is true for other updates that you make to a review after we first share it with the company: although we may provide them with the updated content, this does not cause deletion of the original version from their records.

    These entities may use your Profile Information to market their products and services to you, as well as to post your review on their website or otherwise use the content in your review, subject to the privacy settings on each of your reviews.

    The providers of the products/services listed on our Site, and their partners, may use the technology described in the “Cookies and Other Tracking Mechanisms” section of our Privacy Policy on their pages of our Site to collect information for analytics and advertising purposes. Controls for this data collection are described in that section of our Privacy Policy and are different from the email preference settings and the review privacy settings described above.
  • Other Third-Parties. We may disclose non-personally identifiable information, derived from Information We Collect Automatically (see above), to our customers or partners to provide them audience analytics and other capabilities.


We also may share your information with the following persons and for the following purposes:

  • Business Transfers. If we are acquired by or merged with another company, if substantially all of our assets are transferred to another company, or as part of a bankruptcy proceeding, or in anticipation of any such activities, we may transfer the information we have collected from you to the other company.
  • In Response to Legal Process. We also may disclose the information we collect from you in order to comply with the law, a judicial proceeding, court order, or other legal process, such as in response to a court order or a subpoena.
  • To Protect Us and Others. We also may disclose the information we collect from you where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Service or this Policy, or as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.
  • Aggregate and De-Identified Information. We may share aggregate or de- identified information about you with third parties for marketing, advertising, research or similar purposes.

Cookies and Other Tracking Mechanisms

We and our third party service providers, as well as some of the companies whose products/services are listed on our Site, use cookies and other tracking mechanisms to track information about your use of our Site or Services. We combine this information with other personal information we collect about you to develop a more complete profile about you, to improve your experience on our Site, to assist us with advertising and marketing, and as described in this Policy.

  • Cookies. Cookies files that are transferred to your device through your web browser for record-keeping purposes.
  • Disabling Cookies. Our Site will not function properly without cookies enabled. At a minimum, certain cookies must be allowed in order to preserve your identity as you navigate the Site while logged in. If you wish, you can logoff from the Site once you are done and then delete any cookies that remain. However, the most effective way to control cookies on our Site is by using the Cookie Settings link in the footer to set your preferences. If you clear your cookies after doing that, you’ll need to set your preferences again.
  • Web Beacons, Pixel Tags and Other Technologies. We use web beacons, such as clear GIFs (also known as web bugs or pixel tags), which are tiny graphics that can gather information from your device, including by reading or writing cookies. Clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web pages or in e-mails. We and our third party service providers also use clear GIFs in HTML e-mails, to help us track e-mail response rates, measure the success of our marketing campaigns, identify when our e-mails are viewed and track whether our e-mails are forwarded. Clear GIFs are also used on our Site for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.


To learn more about interest-based advertising generally, or to exercise certain choices regarding targeted, interest-based ads by some of our current ad service partners, you can visit  Cookie Settings link in our footer is the most effective way to manage cookies on our Site.

Third Party Analytics

We use automated devices and applications to evaluate usage of our Site. We also may use other analytic means to evaluate our Services. We use these tools to help us improve our Services, performance and user experiences. We may combine this information with other information we collect from our users. To opt out of Google Analytics, Google also allows you to install a Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on on many types of browsers. However, the Cookie Settings link in our footer is the most effective way to manage cookies on our Site.

Third-Party Ad Networks

We use third parties such as ad networks to serve advertisements on our Site and on third-party websites or other media (e.g., social networking platforms). This enables us and these third parties to target advertisements to you for products and services in which you might be interested. Third-party ad network providers, advertisers, sponsors and/or traffic measurement services may use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (including clear GIFs and other tracking technologies) to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. These third-party cookies and other technologies are governed by each third party’s specific privacy policy, not this one. We may provide these third-party advertisers with information, including Personal Information, about you.

The best way to manage the technology that powers data collection for this purpose on our Site is to use the Cookie Settings link in our footer.

Note that if you replace, change, upgrade or reset your browser or device, or delete your cookies, you may need to use these opt-out tools again.

Third-Party Links

Our Site and Services may contain links to third-party websites. For example, occasionally, at our discretion, we may include or offer third party products or services on our Site. These third parties have separate and independent privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of those linked sites, including their information practices.

User Generated Content

Our Site is a forum for users to share their experience with various products and services. To this end, we invite registered users to post reviews on our Site. Please note, however, that if you post reviews to our Site, then all of the information that you post in the review will be attributed to, depending on your privacy settings, either your Profile Information or your Demographic Profile. If you share your Profile Information, your full identity will be publicly visible from our Site unless you change this in your privacy settings. Please also note your Demographic Profile will be available to all visitors to our Site. If you post your own content on our Site or Services, your posting may become public, and we cannot prevent such information from being used in a manner that may violate this Policy, the law, or your personal privacy. You are responsible for the accuracy of any information contained in your postings.

Security of Your Personal Information

We have implemented some precautions to protect the information we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please be aware that despite our efforts, no data security measures can guarantee 100% security.

You should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your password, phone, and computer by, among other things, signing off after using a shared computer, choosing a robust password that nobody else knows or can easily guess, and keeping your log-in and password private. We are not responsible for any lost, stolen, or compromised passwords or for any activity on your account via unauthorized password activity.

Children

The SandLogic Labs web site is not directed to children under 16 years old, and we do not market to or knowingly collect any personal information from a child under the age of 16.

Updates to Profile Information

You may log into your account at any time to update your profile information. Please note that copies of information that you have updated, modified or deleted may remain viewable in their original form in cached and archived pages of the Site for a period of time and may have been shared with users or other third parties prior to your update, modification, or deletion of the information. Certain third parties (such as search engines that visit our web site) might continue to publish the original versions of the information. We are unable to update, modify, or delete information that was previously shared with a third party or that has otherwise been cached or archived by a third party. The same thing is true for changes you make to the privacy settings for a review, as described in the “Your Reviews” section above.

Your Personal Information Rights

We may send periodic promotional emails to you. You may opt-out of such communications by following the opt-out instructions contained in the e-mail. Please note that it may take up to 10 business days for us to process opt-out requests. If you opt-out of receiving emails about recommendations or other information we think may interest you, we may still send you e-mails about your account or any Services you have requested or received from us.

In addition, residents of the European Economic Area, the UK and other jurisdictions have certain legal rights regarding their personal information, including:

  • Obtain confirmation of whether we hold personal information about them, and to receive information about its processing;
  • Obtain a copy of the personal information, and in some cases, receive it in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, or have it transmitted to a third party in such form;
  • Update, correct or delete the information;
  • Object to the processing of the information (for example, the right to opt out from our processing of personal information for direct marketing purposes); and
  • Withdraw consent previously provided for the processing of the information (which will not impact the lawfulness of any processing that took place prior to the effective date of the withdrawal).

Every individual also has a right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority. Other than that, right, all of the rights described in this section are subject to important limitations under applicable law. To exercise any of those rights, individuals should contact us as described at the end of this Privacy Policy.

For Nevada Residents Only: Under a Nevada privacy law, certain Nevada residents may opt out of the “sale” (as defined in that law) of certain categories of information about them for monetary consideration to a person for that person to license or sell such information to additional persons. As of the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we do not engage in such “sales” of information covered by that law. However, if you are a qualifying Nevada resident, you may submit a request to opt out of any future “sales” by us under that Nevada law by writing to us as described at the end of this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right take reasonable steps to verify your identity and the authenticity of the request. Once verified, we will maintain your request in the event our practices change.

For California Residents Only: Rights under California law are described in the following section.

Special Notice to California Residents

This section applies only to “personal information” about California residents, as that term is defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), and it supplements the information in the rest of our Privacy Policy. Data about individuals who are not residents of California may be handled differently and is not subject to the same California rights described below. This section also does not apply to the personal information we hold in our capacity as a “service provider” (as defined in the CCPA) to certain companies whose products and services are listed on our website. Our handling of that information is subject to our contractual arrangement with those companies. Collection, use, and disclosure of California personal information During the 12 months leading up to the effective date of this Privacy Policy, SandLogic Labs collected all of the information described in the Information We Collect About You section of our Privacy Policy from and about California residents. During that period, we made the following disclosures of personal information about Californians for the purposes described in the How We Use Your Information section above:

Category of personal informationCategories of third parties to which it was disclosed
Registration and account information, such as name, email address, phone number and other identifiers;Affiliates, customers, and service providers, contractors or agents who perform functions on our behalf, such as data storage and hosting providers, email service providers, analytics providers, network and system management providers, communications tools, IT support providers, CRM providers, incentive providers, accounting services.
Demographic information, such as country, city, state, industry, job type, department, expertise, or other demographic data;Same as first row of this chart.
Social networking information, such as profile information and email address;Same as first row.
Employer and/or other company affiliations, such as employer names, titles, work addresses, and other contact information;Same as first row.
Audio and visual information (such as your profile photo and recordings of calls or meetings)Same as first row.
Commercial information (such as your ratings and reviews of products and services)Same as first row.
Other information described in the Information We Collect Automatically section above (some of which is personal information)Same as first row.
Inferences based on the information we collectSame as first row.

During the 12 months leading up to the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we “sold” (as that term is defined under the CCPA) internet or other network or device activity (like a record of a browser’s visit to our website) to marketing and advertising services to assist with such activities and to customers. We continue this practice today. We do not “sell” personal information if we have actual knowledge that the consumer is less than 16 years of age. California privacy rights If you are a California resident, California law may permit you to request that we:

  • Provide you the categories of personal information we have collected or disclosed about you in the last twelve months; the categories of sources of such information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting or (if applicable) selling your personal information; and the categories of third parties with whom we shared personal information.
  • Provide access to and/a copy of certain information we hold about you.
  • Delete certain information we have about you.

Certain information is exempt from such requests under applicable law. You also may have the right to receive information about the financial incentives that we offer to you (if any). You also have certain rights under the CCPA not to be subject to certain negative consequences for exercising CCPA rights. To request to exercise those CCPA rights, please email us at privacy@SandLogic.com. In order to verify your identity, we will follow up with you via email before processing your request, and if you are an accountholder, we may require you to login to your account as part of the verification process. For security and legal reasons, SandLogic Labs may not accept requests that require us to access third-party websites or services. We do not respond to browser-based do-not-track signals or similar mechanisms. You are also permitted to designate an authorized agent to submit certain requests on your behalf. In order for an authorized agent to be verified, you must provide the authorized agent with signed, written permission to make such requests or a power of attorney. We have no obligation to honor requests from purported agents if we lack sufficient confidence that this has occurred and that they are actually submitting the request on your behalf. We may require you to verify your identity directly with us before processing an agent’s request. You also have the right not to receive “discriminatory treatment” (within the meaning of the CCPA) for the exercise of the privacy rights conferred by the CCPA. CCPA “sale” of California personal information The CCPA requires businesses that “sell” personal information, as the term “sell” is defined under the CCPA, to provide an opt-out from such sales. You can exercise that right by performing both of the following steps:

  1. email us at privacy@SandLogic.com; AND
  2. If you would like your request to include CCPA “sales” that happen through cookies and related technology on our Site, you can adjust your Cookie preferences at any time via the Cookie Settings link in the footer of our website and disable the deployment of cookies.

International Data Transfers and Privacy Shield

SandLogic Labs is headquartered in the United States. SandLogic Labs complies with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework with respect to “Customer Lists” that SandLogic Labs receives in the United States from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland. A “Customer List” is a list of individuals’ names, email addresses, and company names, which SandLogic Labs receives from its customer and uses to email those individuals, on behalf of the customer, to invite them to review that customer’s products/services on our Site. We recognize that the Court of Justice of the European Union ruled in July 2020 that a certification under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework no longer can serve as the basis by which entities subject to the GDPR export Personal Data to outside the UK and the European Economic Area. As affected customers who relied only on our Privacy Shield certification transition to the European Commission-approved Standard Contractual Clauses, SandLogic Labs will continue to honor its obligation to comply with the Privacy Shield Principles with respect to such data. SandLogic Labs makes its own transfers of personal data, in many cases through the use of European Commission- approved Standard Contractual Clauses and other data protection contract language. To exercise any legal right to see copies of the data transfer mechanism documents that SandLogic Labs uses to transfer data, please contact us as described below.

This Policy is current as of the Effective Date set forth above. We may change this Policy from time to time, so please be sure to check back periodically.
