1. General

1.1. This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) tells you Amos RF LLC dba AJA Software Solutions (“AJA”, “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) policies and procedures for the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data through the https://freelancercrm.app website and mobile application which operates under the name of FREELANCER CRM (“App”). It includes websites, features, applications, widgets, or online services owned or controlled by AJA and that post a link to this Privacy Policy. It also includes any personal data AJA collects offline in connection with the Service provided through the App.

1.2. When we refer to “AJA” or use the word “we”, “our” or “us”, we mean the Amos RF LLC dba AJA Software Solutions that acts as the “controller” of the data we hold about you or the “processor” of the data that a customer has entrusted to us, as explained in more detail under the “identifying the data controller” part of this Policy. The contact details of each of these entities are set out at the end of this Policy.

1.3. Privacy Policy details the personal data AJA receives about you, how we process it and your rights and obligations in relation to your personal data. AJA, a company registered at 5009 Branded Oaks Court, Tallahassee, Florida, 32311 USA with the a US Federal ID number of 92-3313222 and is the data controller for the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and any relevant local legislation (“Data Protection Laws”).

1.4. By using or accessing the Service, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. We may update our Privacy Policy to reflect changes to our information practices.

1.5. If you are a “data subject”, please read this Privacy Policy carefully and make sure that you fully understand it. You are not legally required to provide us with any of your personal data and may do so (or avoid doing so) at your own free will. If you do not wish to provide us with your personal data, or to have it processed by us or any of our services providers, please simply do not visit or interact with our Sites, nor use our App or Services.

1.6. You may also choose not to provide us with “optional” personal data (i.e. “not required” fields on forms), but please keep in mind that without it we may not be able to provide you with the full range of our Services or with the best user experience when using our Services.

1.7. By “you” we mean the individual reading this text, i.e., you as a natural person (and not any company or other organization that you may be associated with).

1.8. Some words and phrases in this Privacy Policy are in quotation marks (e.g., “controller”, “processor’” and “data subject”). These are legal terms, having the same meanings as given to them in the EU General Data Protection Regulation, i.e., Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”).

1.9. Any capitalized but undefined term in this Privacy Policy shall have the meaning given to it in our Terms and Conditions of Services (“Terms”).

2. Identifying the Data Controller

2.1. AJA is a software & technology company and a lot of what we do involves data processing in one way or another. Various data need to be processed in several ways for us to carry on our business, including provide, maintain, and develop the Service, App and Website, and to communicate with you. Data is processed both for us as well as our customers, and customers themselves process data through the Service. Not all this data constitutes Personal Data and much of the processing is controlled by parties other than AJA.

2.2. For instance, the user environment delivered via the Service has certain logically defined parts (each, a “Project”) where a Service user (“User”) can enter, record, store, use, disclose and otherwise manipulate various data. The data thus processed are referred to as “Project Data” which are integrated with a Client of the User and it is the User who created the Project that determines the purposes of, and otherwise controls, the processing of these data. User has legal control over, and is responsible for, Project Data. That User (the Project Owner) is also the “controller” of all Personal Data maintained in the Project. AJA processes these data on the Project Owner’s behalf and is thus considered to be the “processor” of the said Personal Data. This means that any enquiry, request, objection, or complaint that you as a “data subject” may have in connection with the processing of Personal Data that form part of Project Data (i.e., where the data concerned relates to you) should be addressed to, and resolved by, the relevant Project Owner.

2.3. AJA is the “controller” of the Personal Data that are collected by us or on our behalf through the activities within the Service, or which are otherwise processed for the purposes of our business. The following sections explain the collection and process of these data in more detail.

3. Information We Collect

3.1. AJA collects, generates, and receives information in a variety of ways. Some of this information constitutes “personal data” and the rest does not. We shall use the word “Information” to designate any and all of the data that are collected, generated, or otherwise processed by us or on our behalf. This part of the Privacy Policy explains how we collect, receive, or generate your personal data.

Profile Information:

3.2. We collect Information about you while negotiating, preparing, concluding, and amending agreements between you and AJA within the Service, Website and App of FREELANCER CRM. The Information collected may include the data provided in such agreements and any data that you furnish for the purposes of negotiating, concluding, or amending those agreements.

3.3. For instance, when you are signing up for a Service user account (“User Account”), we ask you to give us your full name, email address. During the sign-up procedure, we may automatically record your internet protocol address (IP address). For validating human access to the User Account, you will validate your e-mail address with a link goes to your inbox while signing up. You will also be assigned a user identifier (user ID), which is a certain numerical value that we generate, store and can identify you by.

Financial Information:

3.4. We collect your financial information related to the projects that you create through the App. It includes your total revenue of your last 30 days and budget that you determine for your Project which you can create, edit, and integrate with your Clients.

Usage Information:

3.5. As with most websites and mobile applications, certain data are automatically collected when you visit a Website or use a service application and this Information is recorded in log files. For example, when you log into the Service, the date and time of your login will be recorded along with your IP address (giving us your approximate location) and a limited user agent string (telling us what type of Service application, e.g., web, desktop or mobile, was used for the login). When you create a data entry via the Service, your Service application type and version may be recorded.

Cookie Information:

3.6. When you enter the Website, we collect your browser type and your IP address (a unique address that identifies your computer on the Internet). When you use our App, we collect your device type, your device ID, and your IP address.

3.7. Cookies vary by nature and purpose. For instance, a “session cookie” only exists in the temporary memory of your device, i.e., while your Service session or visit to a Website lasts, and is usually deleted when your web browser is closed. A “persistent cookie”, on the other hand, has a longer lifespan: it remains on your device until you delete it (i.e., instruct your browser to do so) or until it expires. A “secure cookie” can only be sent over a “secure” (encrypted) connection, making it harder for others to intercept information. A “first-party cookie” belongs to us, and a “third-party cookie” belongs to someone other than AJA, e.g., a company providing us with Service or Website analysis services or delivering our messages (such as advertisements) across the internet.

3.8. We only use Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica which are web analytics tools that helps us understand how users engage with the Website. Like many services, Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica use first-party cookies to track user interactions as in our case, where they are used to collect information about how users use our site. This information is used to compile reports and to help us improve our Website. The reports disclose website trends without identifying individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica without affecting how you visit our site.

3.9. Please note that we do not change our practices in response to a “Do Not Track” signal in the HTTP header from a browser or mobile application, however, most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether or not to accept them and how to remove them. You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or to block or remove cookies altogether.

3.10. Third-party cookies can usually be managed by the tools provided by those parties. Some of such tools are available here:

https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout (Google Analytics opt-out); https://yandex.com/support/metrica/general/opt-out.html (Yandex Metrica opt-out); https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies (Facebook cookie policy and opt-out); http://optout.networkadvertising.org (Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page); http://optout.aboutads.info (Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page). You can find more information about cookies and how to manage them at http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

Other Information:

3.11. We receive from you such Information as you provide us when filling in forms (e.g., applications or questionnaires) on a Website or via the Service or when you participate in our Service-related campaigns or programmes, sign up to receive notifications, newsletters or other communications from us, request support for the Service, interact with our social media accounts or correspond or otherwise communicate with AJA within the scope of FREELANCER CRM Website or App. If you email us or send us a letter or a message, we may retain a record of such communication, including your name, email address or telephone number (as applicable), the content of your communication and our response. We may complement these data with other Information.

4. Information Uses & Legal Bases

4.1. The purposes for which Information is processed and the legal grounds for such processing are varied and depend on the nature of the Information. If Information is anonymous or de-identified, we may collect, use, disclose and otherwise process it for any purpose. Our processing of Personal Data, however, is limited to the purposes set out in this Policy.
4.2. Most commonly, we will process your Personal Data in the following circumstances: (a) if we need to perform an agreement you have with us or it is necessary to take pre-contractual steps at your request before entering into such an agreement (we shall refer to these grounds as “Contractual”); (b) where we need to comply with a legal obligation, e.g., one arising from a law or regulation concerning taxation, accounting, financial reporting, prevention of terrorism or money laundering, or judicial or administrative process (this would be a “Legal” ground); (c) if it is warranted by our legitimate interests or those of a third party and such interests are not overridden by yours or your fundamental rights and freedoms (here, the processing would be based on “Interest”); (d) where we have your unambiguous consent before processing your Personal Data in that specific situation (thus allowing us to process these data on the grounds of “Consent”).
4.3. Each of the categories of Information described under this Privacy Policy include your Personal Data but not all those categories may apply to you (e.g., if you are not a User, it is unlikely for us to hold much Profile Information on you and most of the other categories of Information would also be irrelevant). The table below sets out the purposes for which your Personal Data in the specified category of Information will or may be stored, used, disclosed or otherwise processed, and which of the above grounds we rely on when doing so. Where the processing is based on Interest, we have also identified what the legitimate interest in that particular case is. Please note that we may be processing the same pieces of your Personal Data for several purposes simultaneously and, respectively, on more than one legal ground (e.g., on a Contractual basis as well as based on Interest, and perhaps also on a Legal ground). Contact us if you need details about the specific legal ground we are relying on to process your Personal Data where more than one ground has been listed. Note also that not each piece of Personal Data in a particular category of Information is processed for all the purposes specified in connection with that category (and on the grounds corresponding to those purposes). Contact us if you wish to know which of the said purposes precisely and in what circumstances applies to the processing of a specific piece of your Personal Data. Our contact details are provided at the end of this Policy. Profile Information

4.4. The communications that we initiate with you can broadly be classified as: (a) Service-related technical, administrative, business, legal and subscribed-to promotional messages that we address to Users and which you only receive if you are one (“Service Messages”); and (b) messages about products, services, events and other matters you have shown interest in or which we believe may be of interest to you (“Marketing Messages”). 4.5. You can unsubscribe from certain Service Messages by adjusting your User Account settings and from others by following the instructions provided in the message. There are, however, some Service Messages that form part of the Service and which you cannot opt out of receiving unless you unsubscribe from the Service. As for Marketing Messages, you can always opt out of receiving these, but the variety of procedures for doing so may depend on the nature of the message and whether you have a User Account. If you do, try adjusting your User Account settings, and whether you have an account or not, there should always be opt-out instructions in the message itself. If you have trouble unsubscribing, contact us and we shall opt you out.

5. Data Disclosure

5.1. This part of the Policy describes the circumstances in which we may disclose or transmit your Personal Data to third parties. Please note that the sections below only address the disclosures and transmissions of Personal Data and not, for example, anonymous or de-identified Information (which we may transmit and disclose at any time to anyone anywhere, in any manner and for any purpose).

5.2. AJA shares your personal data only when it is necessary to offer the Service, legally required, or permitted by you.

5.3. We will provide personal data to hosting providers such as Amazon Web Services and analytics providers such as Google.

5.4. These data processors help us bring you the Service. For example, we may share your information in order to detect where or how you encountered a bug when using our mobile application. In connection with these operations, our service providers will have access to personal data for a limited time. When we utilize service providers for processing any personal data, we implement contractual protections limiting the use of that personal data to the provision of services to AJA.

5.5. We will be required to access and disclose personal data in response to lawful requests, such as subpoenas or court orders, or in compliance with applicable laws. Additionally, we will access and share account or other personal data when we believe it is necessary to comply with law, to protect our interests or property, to prevent fraud or other illegal activity perpetrated through the Service or using the AJA name, or to prevent imminent harm. This will include accessing and sharing personal data with other companies, lawyers, agents, or government agencies.

5.6. We may share your Personal Data with our corporate subsidiaries and outside accountants, legal counsels, and auditors.

5.7. If we engage in or are subject to a merger, acquisition, division, transformation, public offering of our securities, obtaining financing, divestiture of all or substantially all of our assets or a significant part of such assets, transfer of the enterprise or a part of the enterprise to which your agreement with us pertains, or a similar transaction or proceeding, or if we take steps in contemplation of such activities (e.g., submit to due diligence), your Personal Data may, subject to standard confidentiality arrangements, be shared with, or transferred to, our counterparties or other relevant participants in the respective transaction or proceeding.

5.8. We shall disclose your Personal Data at your request (unless legally prohibited, impracticable or involving unreasonable effort or expense) or may do so upon your Consent.

6. Data Storage

6.1. We only store your Personal Data for as long as necessary in the light of, or compatible with, the purposes for which the data were collected (e.g., enjoying our rights and performing our obligations under the contract you have with us, if that was the sole purpose) and such additional period as may be required by law.

6.2. Legal retention periods vary depending on the type of Information concerned, and they can be quite long. For instance, Personal Data relevant to our contract with you (which is likely to be the case upon some of the Personal Data categories and may also apply to some other Personal Data) must be retained for at ten years after the primary purpose for their processing ceases to apply (e.g., ten years following our business relationship with you terminated.)

7. Data Security

7.1. The Service may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other websites. We encourage users to be aware when they leave the Service to read the privacy statements of other websites that collect personally identifiable information. This Privacy Policy applies only to Information collected by AJA via the Service.

7.2. AJA has implemented administrative and technical safeguards it believes are appropriate to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your personal data. However, please be aware that no security measure is perfect. Our efforts notwithstanding, we cannot guarantee that your Personal Data, during transmission over the internet or while stored in our systems or those of our service providers or while otherwise in our care, will be absolutely safe from unauthorized or unlawful processing or accidental loss, alteration, or destruction, or that they will indeed be intact and confidential at all times or shortly available after any Service incident. Note also that we cannot control, and are not responsible for, the actions of other parties with whom you share (or instruct us to share) your Personal Data.

8. Data Subject Rights

8.1. As data subject, you have legal rights which are regulated under the GDPR and other local legislations. This part of the Policy aims to give you a general understanding of these rights and we encourage you to deepen this understanding by studying the GDPR yourself.

 Right of access: 8.2. You have the right to enquire and get a confirmation from us as to whether or not we process any of your Personal Data. Where we do, you may request access to those data and have us give you a copy of them. A User can access most of the Personal Data we have about her by logging in to her User Account and going to User profile page. If you wish to be certain or have no User Account, please use the contact details at the end of this Policy to exercise your “right of access”.

 Right to rectification: 8.3. If the Personal Data we have about you is incorrect, you have the right to request that we correct those data, and, in some circumstances, you may have the right to require that your incomplete Personal Data be completed (but in each of these cases we may need to verify the accuracy of the information you provide to us). As with the “right of access”, Users can and are encouraged to update the Personal Data under their User Accounts themselves.

 Right to erasure (right to be forgotten): 8.4. You have the right to request that we delete or remove the Personal Data we have on you where there is no good reason for us continuing to process them. Please note that we may not always be able to comply with your request as there may be specific legal reasons which warrant the processing. Should this be the case, we shall inform you accordingly at the time of your request.

 Right to object: 8.5. You have the right to object to our processing of your Personal Data where the processing is based on Interest and there is something about your particular situation that makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. There may, however, be occasions where we demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your Personal Data (i.e., that our legitimate interests or those of a third party override yours and your fundamental rights and freedoms) and thus dismiss your objection. In case we are processing your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes, you may object to that processing at any time, and we shall no longer process your Personal Data for such purposes.

 Right to restriction of processing: 8.6. You have the right to request that we suspend the processing of your Personal Data where any of the following applies: (a) you have contested the accuracy of the data and the same needs to be verified; (b) the processing is unlawful but you do not want us to erase the data that we are processing; (c) you need us to maintain the data even though we no longer require them as they are necessary for your establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; or (d) you have objected to processing as described under GDPR Article 17 but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds for processing.

 Right to data portability: 8.7. If our processing of your Personal Data which you have provided us is based on a Contractual ground or on Consent and the processing is carried out by automated means, you are entitled to have us make those data available to you in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format so that you could transmit them to someone else (another “controller”). You may also ask us to transmit these data to that other “controller” directly, and we shall do so, if technically feasible.

 Right to withdraw consent: 8.8. If we are processing your Personal Data based on Consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time (but this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing activities carried out based on your consent before its withdrawal).

8.9. We aim to respond to any legitimate request within a month of its receipt, but it may take us longer if your request is particularly complex or you have made several requests. If that is the case, we shall let you know and keep you updated.

8.10. We shall not charge you any fee for exercising the above rights unless your requests are clearly unfounded or excessive (e.g., because of their repetitive character), in which case we may charge a reasonable fee. Alternatively, we may decline your request in such circumstances.

9. California Privacy Rights

9.1. Residents of California have the right to:

• Know what personal information we collect about you and from where we collect it.
• Access a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
• Understand how we process your personal information and how it may be shared.
• Opt out of having your personal information shared with certain third parties.
• Request we delete your account and personal information.

To make such a request, please send an email to privacy@ajasoftwaresolutions.com

10. Policy Changes

10.1. We may revise and change this Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the Service, Websites, applicable laws, regulations or standards or other changes that may occur in our business. We shall post the revised Policy (or, as the case may be, our new privacy policy) on the same webpage where we published this Policy or on such other webpage as we then may habitually use for publishing materials such as the Policy. We may also use the Service, email, or other means for notifying Users of such policy changes. The revised Policy (or, as applicable, the new one) will be effective when posted as described unless the document itself specifies a later time for its entry into force.

11. Contact
