Liquibase Inc. and our affiliates (“Liquibase,” “we“, “us“, or “our“) are committed to protecting and respecting your personal information and privacy.

This Privacy Policy (together with our website Terms of Use and any other documents referred to in this Privacy Policy) gives details of what personal information we may collect from you or that you may provide to us, and how we may store,  use, protect and share your personal information. Such information may be collected or provided when you communicate with us or use our mobile apps, websites or any of our products. It does not apply to other websites, products or services that we do not control, including websites or services of third parties.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into, and forms an integral part of, the Liquibase Terms of Use. Capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meanings ascribed them in our Terms of Use.

Please read the following carefully to understand how we collect and use your personal information. If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or our use of your personal information, you can contact us.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time in response to changing legal, technical or business developments. When we update our Privacy Policy, we will take appropriate measures to inform you, consistent with the significance of the changes we make. We will obtain your consent to any material Privacy Policy changes if and where this is required by applicable data protection laws. You can see when this Privacy Policy was last updated by checking the “Date of Last Revision” date displayed at the top of this Privacy Policy.

1.         Where We Store Your Personal Information

We are a global organization and so the personal information that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination other than the country in which the personal information was collected (personal information is frequently transferred to the United States because that is where we are headquartered).

Your personal information may also be processed by our staff at any of our locations around the world or by the staff of our suppliers at any of their locations around the world. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things, the fulfillment of your order, the processing of your payment details and the provision of support services.

Personal information you provide to us may be stored on our servers or those of our third party service providers. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. You should not share your password with anyone.

We will keep your personal information for no longer than necessary for our required use as described below. Once this time period has expired, we will delete your personal information.

2.         Liquibase Products

Some of our products may be used by our customers to collect information that is or could be personal information. We may have no direct relationship with the individuals whose personal information we process on behalf of our customers. An individual who seeks access, or who seeks to correct, amend or delete inaccurate data controlled by one of our customers should direct its query to our customer (the data controller). We use and disclose such personal information as specified in the agreement(s) between our customer and us and/or as required by law.

3.         Personal Information We May Collect From You

(a) Information you give to us: You may provide us with certain categories of personal information, which is information that could reasonably be used to identify you personally, including but not limited to, your name, email address and company information. We may collect this information through forms that you complete on our mobile apps and websites, by subscribing to our services (such as newsletters or white papers), using community forums on our website, attending training sessions, following us on social media, by attending our events or by corresponding with us by phone, email, social media or otherwise. This includes information you provide when you purchase products from us, contact our support helpdesk, participate in forums or other social media functions on our website, enter a competition, promotion or survey and when you report a problem with our website.

(b) Information when you use our mobile apps: When you use our mobile apps we may automatically collect the following information:

(i) Device information: We may collect information about the device including, where available, the device’s unique device identifiers, operating system, browser type and, if a mobile device, mobile network information as well as the device’s telephone number;

(ii) Location information: If you use any location-enabled services that we may offer, we may collect and process information about your actual location. Some of these services may require your personal information for the feature to work. If you wish to use the particular feature, you will be asked to consent to your personal information being used for this purpose; and

(iii) Unique application numbers: when you install or uninstall an app containing a unique application number or when such a service searches for automatic updates, that number and information about your installation, for example, the type of operating system, may be sent to us.

(c) Information from visits to our websites: Each time you visit our website we may automatically collect the following information:

(i) Technical information, including the Internet protocol (“IP”) address used to connect your computer to the Internet (which may allow us to identify your geographic location), your login information, browser type and version, time zone setting, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform; and

(ii) Information about your visit, including the full Uniform Resource Locators (“URL”) clickstream to, through and from our website (including date and time); page response times, download errors, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information (such as scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs), and methods used to browse away from the page and any phone number used to call our customer service number.

(d) Information from your use of our products: If you use our software products, we may automatically collect metrics on your activities, such as details of when you are using the software product, web pages visited, length of visit, interactions with the user interface, which features of our products you use and how often, how many agents have been installed and the application types being monitored and other information about your technology environment and devices used (including unique device identifiers, operating system, browser type and mobile network information). If you configure or use our products in a manner that collects information about your customers, then we will also receive that information.

Our products also collect metrics that relate to the performance, health and resource of servers, databases applications and other technology, as well as their components (transactions, code libraries) and the related infrastructure (nodes, tiers) that service those components.

(e) Information we receive from other sources: We work closely with third parties (for example, business partners, resellers, sub-contractors in technical, payment and delivery services, advertising networks, analytics providers, search information providers and credit reference agencies) and may receive information about you from them to enable us to customize your experience on our websites with personalized content. In addition, if you use our social login features (allowing you to log-in to your account using a third party platform such as LinkedIn or GitHub), such third party platform will provide us with access to certain personal information that you have provided to it, and we will use, store and disclose such personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. However, please remember that the manner in which such third party platforms use, store and disclose your personal information is governed by the policies of such third parties, and we will have no liability or responsibility for the privacy practices or other actions of any such platforms.

We may use personal information held about you to provide you, or permit selected third parties to provide you, with information about products or services we feel may interest you. This may be by contacting you by phone or by email. If you do not want us to use your information in this way, or to pass your details on to third parties for marketing purposes, you can unsubscribe from such emails using the link provided in emails, tell your Liquibase contact, or contact us at liquibasecomst.wpengine.com/contact. Note that you may still receive administrative emails (for example, regarding updates to our terms) or transactional emails (for example, related to a purchase you make) from us.

7.         Aggregated Information

In an ongoing effort to better understand and serve the users of our websites and products, we often conduct research on customer demographics, interests and behavior based on the personal information and other data provided to us. This research may be compiled and analyzed on an aggregate basis, and we may share this aggregated data with our affiliates, agents and business partners. This aggregated information does not identify you personally. We may also disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe our products to current and prospective business partners, and to other third parties for other lawful purposes.

8.         Disclosure of Your Personal information

We will never sell your personal information for marketing purposes. However, there may be times when we need to share your personal information, as detailed below. We may share your personal information with any of our affiliates if necessary for the legitimate business purposes of the disclosing company or company receiving the personal information. We may also share your personal information with selected third parties including: (a) our affiliates, business partners, resellers, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with them or you. When we employ another company to perform a function of this nature, we strive to provide them with the minimum personal information that they need to perform their specific function; (b) partners and service providers with whom we have a strategic relationship or that perform work for us to provide the products to you. These third parties may help us host and/or analyze data, process information, fulfill orders, deliver products or information, manage and enhance user data, provide customer service, assess your interest in products or conduct user research and surveys. These companies are obligated to protect your personal information and may have their own privacy policies if you link to or access their websites or systems; and (c) analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimization of our website. We may disclose your personal information to third parties: (i) in the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, in which case we may disclose your information to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets; (ii) if substantially all of our assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal information held by us about our customers will be one of the transferred assets; or (iii) if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal information in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to enforce any agreements with you or to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our customers, or others. This includes exchanging personal information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

9.         Security

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to provide reasonable protection for personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, and misuse. However, no Internet or email transmission is ever fully secure or error-free. In particular, email sent to or from us may not be secure. Therefore, you should take special care in deciding what personal information you send to us via email. Please keep this in mind when disclosing any personal information to us. We ask that you not send us, and you not disclose, any sensitive personal information to us directly or through our products (such as protected health information, passwords and authentication/authorization credentials for other services, credit card numbers or other financial information other than for the purpose of making payment to us, driver’s license numbers, passport numbers, social security numbers or information related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion or other beliefs, health, criminal background or trade union membership).

Subject to applicable law, you can request to review, change, or delete your personal information by contacting us at www.liquibase.com/contact. You can exercise rights over your personal information. We provide reasonable steps to allow you to access, rectify, erase, port, or restrict the use of your personal information. You have the right to object to the use of your personal information at any time, subject to applicable law. When collection is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal by applicable law. If applicable by national law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data relating infringes your rights
