Once you become a User, we require you to provide various contact and identity information, billing information, and other personal information as indicated on the relevant forms on the Site (which vary, depending on what kind of User you are), and you are no longer anonymous to us. Where possible, on these forms we indicate which fields are required and which fields are optional.
In addition, as you use the Site, you can from time to time enter or send to us personal information. For example, if you are a Subscriber, you can enter your own time and other billing information, and if you are a Client you may enter information about payment of any invoice submitted by a Subscriber. As you use the Site you can also from time to time enter personal information about third parties. For example, if you are a Subscriber, you can enter personal information about your Clients or your staff.

This may involve the hosting of data, including personal information, on servers operated by those hosting companies. We take care to use only service providers that are reputable and able to live up to our and your expectations, including about the handling of confidential information, and specifically try to only partner with companies who can verify their GDPR compliance.

Adminja does not own, control, or direct the use of any of the Client Data stored or processed by a Client or Subscriber via the service. Only the Client or Subscriber are entitled to access, retrieve and direct the use of such Client Data. Adminja is largely unaware of what Client Data is actually being stored or made available by a Client or Subscriber to the Service and does not directly access such Client Data except as authorized by the Client, or as necessary to provide Services to the Subscriber or their Clients.
Because Adminja does not collect or determine the use of any Personal Data contained in the Client Data and because it does not determine the purposes for which such Personal Data is collected, the means of collecting such Personal Data, or the uses of such Personal Data, Adminja is not acting in the capacity of a data controller in terms of the European Union's Directive 95/46/EC on data privacy or other European Data Protection Regulation ("EU Law") and does not have the associated responsibilities under EU Law. Adminja should be considered only as a processor on behalf of it's Subscribers and their Clients as to any Client Data containing Personal Data that is subject to the requirements of the EU Law. Except as provided in this Privacy Policy, Adminja does not independently cause Client Data containing Personal Data stored in connection with the Service to be transferred or otherwise made available to third parties, except to third party subcontractors who may process such data on behalf of Adminja in connection with Adminja's provision of Services to it's Subscribers and Clients. Such actions are performed or authorized only by the applicable Subscriber or Client.
Adminja is not responsible for the content of the Personal Data contained in Client Data or other information stored on its servers (or its subcontractor's servers) at the discretion of the Subscriber or Client nor is Adminja responsible for the manner in which the Subscriber or Client collects, handles disclosure, distributes or otherwise processes such information.
Security
Adminja strives to protect your personal information. For security of transactions, we use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, which encrypts any information, such as credit card number and billing information, you send to us electronically. The encryption process protects your information, by scrambling it before it is sent to us from your computer. Once Adminja receives your transmission, we make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure its security on our system.
Adminja has been built on the Google Cloud Platform. All of your data, authentication information, data storage and secure communication with Adminja is being seamlessly managed via Google's Cloud Platform.
All information is encrypted at multiple levels, even at rest, to ensure that subscribers and their client's data are secure from unauthorized access.
For more information about the security of your data, please see this article on Google Cloud Platform Security: https://cloud.google.com/security/
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. If you have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can contact us at help@getadminja.com.
Other Information Collectors
Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document only addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. To the extent that you disclose your information to other parties through the Site, whether they are Subscribers or Clients or otherwise, different rules may apply to their use, collection and disclosure of the personal information you disclose to them. Since we do not control the information use, collection or disclosure policies of third parties, you are subject to their privacy policies. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
Correcting and Updating Your Personal Information
Upon request Adminja will provide you with information about whether we hold any of your personal information as well as a copy of ALL information on you that we hold. In general, to review, delete and update your personal information to ensure it is accurate, you may login into your account to make the changes, or you may contact us at help@getadminja.com. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.
Account Deletion
Adminja manages a business eco system that brings together Virtual Assistants, and Clients. This network relies on the exchange and sharing of information that is important to others in your network. Tracked hours, sent invoices, paid invoices may be vital to other people that work with you on the same Client. These are the official history of work done and moneys paid.
The complexity and connected nature of the system requires that this history exists for the life of the Client to accommodate proper function and accounting for the other systems via tasks, hours, invoices, and payments. If you are collaborating with other Subscribers, Adminja cannot guarantee the deletion of this particular slice of your information should you choose to delete your personal account.
When a customer chooses to close an account we will remove your information from our marketing and billing systems. This will ensure that there are not further mailings or billings directed towards the canceled user. After 30 days, the account will be deleted along with any Client information that was owned by it and is not tied to another User account.
Data Retention
We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Additional Policy Information
Invitations: You have the opportunity to invite others to work with you through your Adminja account. To do that, Adminja asks you to manually enter your contacts’ email addresses. As you direct, we then send them an invitation on your behalf or other notices reflecting changes you make to their status in your account.
If you click on a link to a third-party site, you will leave the Adminja site and go to the site you selected. If you elect to use a third-party product or service in conjunction with Adminja, you yourself enter into a license agreement with the third party for use of their product or service and their use of your data. Because we cannot control the activities of third parties, we cannot accept responsibility for any use of your personal information by such third parties, and we cannot guarantee that they will adhere to the same privacy practices as Adminja. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any other service provider from whom you request services. If you visit a third party website that is linked to an Adminja site, you should read that site’s privacy policy before providing any personal information.
