Privacy Policy

Last updated on 18 April, 2023

Introduction

We, at Logstail (“we” or the “Company”), will take all possible and reasonable steps to protect the privacy of visitors of the logstail.com (the Website), individuals who register to use the products and services (Customer(s)), individuals who register to attend the Company’s corporate or other events, business partners or any other individual who is authorized by our Customers to use the Services or have access to any of the data managed and analyzed by the Company (User(s)). The following Privacy Policy explains our privacy practices related to these activities and how Logstail may collect, use, and/or share personal information. Please note that the term you shall refer to website visitors, Customers and Users, as applicable. We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy carefully and use it to make informed decisions.

By using our Services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and your continued use of the Services constitutes your ongoing agreement to it. The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) , enforceable as of May 25, 2018, imposes additional requirements upon companies to strengthen the security around and enhance the protection of personal data of EU residents. Logstail has put a lot of effort into ensuring Logstail’s GDPR readiness.

On May 25, 2018, the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) took effect. GDPR regulates the governance of personal data for EU citizens with an emphasis on data security and privacy. The GDPR does not only apply to companies that operate in the EU. This regulation will also impact companies operating outside of the EU if they have any EU customers or personal data of anyone in the EU. Logstail has made information security and data privacy foundational principles of everything we do, and we recognize the importance of regulations that advance information security and data privacy for citizens of the EU. We are firmly committed to GDPR readiness.

What information do we collect?

We may collect the following types of information from or about you:

Personal Information

Personal Information is individually identifiable information, namely information that identifies an individual or may with reasonable effort identify an individual. We gather the following types of Personal Information:

Registration details: When ordering or registering to our Services, we may collect certain information that can be used to identify you (as the Customer’s point of contact or as a User) such as name, email address, postal address, phone number, user IDs and other relevant details which are relevant to the Customer.
Customer’s payment information: In order for you to enjoy all of the functions which we offer, we collect payment information from you, including your credit card number and bank account details. Please note that your billing information, to the extent provided by you, is forwarded directly to a third-party billing or clearing company engaged by us, and is not kept by us.
Voluntary information: We also collect information which you provide us voluntarily. For example, when you respond to communications from us, ask our support, communicate with us via email or share additional information about yourself through your use of the Services.
Device information: We also collect specific types of connection details and information with regard to your device, software or hardware that may identify you, such as online identifiers, device unique identifiers (e.g. UDID, MAC address), IP address and geolocation.
Forum Information: As part of the Services, Users may communicate with other Users through the Website and upload content to our forums (Forum Information). Such Forum Information may consist of, for example, Users’ comments and tips for utilizing the Services, feedback, etc. We and other Users will be exposed to your username and any additional information you upload to the forum, including Personal Information. We recommend that you secure your anonymity and information so that you do not allow others to identify you. By uploading Forum Information, you represent that you have all the necessary consents and permissions from each identifiable individual referenced in your content to use their Personal Information as part of our Services.

Non-personal Information

Non-personal Information is non-identifiable information that, when taken alone, cannot be used to identify or contact you. As such, we are not aware of the identity of the user from which the Non-personal Information was collected.

Analytics Data: We may record certain information regarding the use of our Website and the Services, such as information about a webpage that a user has visited before accessing our Services and other user statistics. We also perform statistical analysis on all the data and metadata collected through our Services. This information will be used for Services administration and analysis of this information will help to improve and enhance the Services by expanding their features and functionality. It can also be used for troubleshooting errors and bugs as well as for research and analytics purposes about your use of the Services. In case Personal Information is combined with Non-personal Information (e.g. analytics data), the final information will be treated as Personal Information as long as it remains combined.
Anonymous information: We may anonymize or de-identify the information collected by the Services or via other means so that the information cannot, on its own, personally identify you. Our use and disclosure of such aggregated or de-identified information is not subject to any restrictions under this Privacy Policy, and we may disclose it to others without limitation and for any purpose.

User Data

By using the Product, we manage and analyze Customer’s logs and other data that are transmitted through our Customers’ platforms (e.g. “User Data”). Such User Data is transferred by the Customer (or its Users) and processed by us on our cloud computing servers. The Company provides such services as a “data processor”, acting under the sole direction of its Customers and Users.

User Data may include records of operations of Customer’s applications and systems and other information relating to Customer employees’ or end-user activities. It may also include data, logs, text, audio, video or images that a Customer or any User uses in connection with Customer’s account and any computational results that a Customer or any User derives from the foregoing through their use of the Product.

Please note that User Data is exclusively controlled by the Customer, meaning that the Customer (or any Users authorized by the Customer to use the Product on its behalf) maintains ownership of related User Data and determines its own policies regarding access permissions and retention of User Data. Here are some examples of User Data that may be recorded and processed when you use our Product:

Digital files created or transmitted through User platforms, such as text files.
Contact directories, such as names and email addresses.
Device identifiers, such as the Internet Protocol (IP) address and other types of unique device identifiers relating to Customer and user devices.
Non-personal Information, including usernames, directory names, server names, share names, file names, configurations, logs related to the Company (e.g. event logs), browsing events and technical information transmitted by Customer and User devices.

Please note that such User Data may include Personal Information. If you (as a Customer or a User) submit to us or to third parties acting on our behalf any Personal Information relating to other individuals (e.g. employees, end-users, etc.) in connection with your use of the Product, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you have any reason to believe that our Services are misused in any way, please contact us at privacy@logstail.com.

We may rectify, replenish or remove incomplete or inaccurate information at any time and at our own discretion.

You should note that by using our Services, your information will be transferred through third-party infrastructures which are not under our control. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.

If you feel that your privacy was treated not in accordance with this Privacy Policy, please contact us directly at privacy@logstail.com.
