1. Introduction

(1) We are Pluria International Inc, a company headquartered in the United States, at 838 Walker Rd Suite 21-2, Dover, DE 19904, registered under Fiscal code (EIN) 88-2642544.

Therefore, we strongly recommend and insist that you carefully read this Privacy Policy before engaging with Pluria User App.

(2) We have set up and are operating Pluria Platform where Clients (employers/contractors of Users) can access Pluria Services, also to the benefit of the Users (Clients’ employees/contractors). You will be prompted about this Policy when you download Pluria User App in order to use it for reserving/cancelling Spaces signalled as available in Pluria Platform and accessing them during the booked time frame.

(3) Effective access to/engagement with Pluria Services is ensured through Pluria User App, while for providing Pluria Services/functionalities of Pluria User App and Pluria Platform, it is necessary for Pluria to collect and process your personal data. When Pluria decides the categories of personal data it processes, as well as the purposes and means of personal data processing, Pluria acts as data controller. With respect to certain processing operations, Pluria acts also as a data processor, or joint controller.

(4) This Policy applies to the processing of personal data of data subjects in EU/EES (the EES countries being the UE countries, plus Switzerland, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway – considered to have equivalent laws with respect to privacy law), ensured by/through the Pluria User App and/or Pluria Platform, with respect to which Pluria acts as data controller, in accordance with GDPR.

2. General overview on personal data processing by Pluria user app

(1) Personal data is any data/information that helps us identify data subjects (Users). There is data that enables us to directly identify you (e.g. name and surname), while processing of other information leads to your indirect identification (e.g. IP of your Device) – both are categories of personal data.

(2) By this Policy, we inform you on:

Categories of personal data we process;

  • Why and how we process your personal data;

  • What is the legal basis/ground for our personal data processing;

  • How we retain your personal data and for what duration;

  • Whom we share your personal data with;

  • Your rights regarding personal data processing.

(3) Data processing by Pluria within the scope of your use of our Pluria User App / (indirect use of Pluria Platform)/Pluria Services can be divided into the following categories:

  • When you download our app, the necessary data is transmitted to the respective application store (i.e.Google Play for Android, respectively Apple App Store for iOS);

  • When your Account on Pluria Platform / Pluria User App is set-up;

  • To allow you to use the features/functionalities of Pluria User App /access Pluria Services, e.g. to find Spaces in your vicinity, our Pluria User App requires access to location function on your Device in order to deliver the functionalities your request through the Pluria User App;

  • When you use our Pluria User App /access Pluria Services, data will be exchanged between your Device and our server. This may also be personal data. Data collected in this way can for instance be used in order to enable Space reservation/cancelling, to correctly assign your Space reservation so you can access the Space in the reserved time frame, to correctly allocate your usage of the Space in accordance with the contractual arrangement between Pluria and the Client (e.g. your employer).

(4) Nevertheless, although mobile devices on which Pluria User App is downloaded tend to have personal data related to other individuals (than the User) stored on them, such as contact details, private communications and pictures of third parties, Pluria undertakes not to collect such data from Users and/or share such third-party personal data with Users, for further processing.

(5) Pluria, as Pluria User App’s both provider and developer, undertakes to use User’s data for the specific purposes that the data subjects have been made aware of, and for no other(s), without further consent from Users. Also, we process the minimum amount of data for specific processing, while at the same time we ensure that the security requirements of the personal data and the processing systems are met (e.g. integrity and confidentiality, as well as availability and resilience).

(6) The provisions of this Policy apply with priority against the contrary provisions in other terms issued by Pluria.

(7) User’s benefitting from the functionalities of Pluria User App is dependent on the existence of the contractual arrangement between Pluria and Client (the legal entity ensuring the provision of our specific services to your direct benefit, acting as your employer/contractor).

(8) User is hereby informed and understands that the information/data/contents in User Account generated by User’s accessing Pluria User App (e.g. reservations, check-in/check-out details) are the direct result of the direct contractual relationship between User’s employer (e.g. Pluria Client) and that such contents shall be accessible to the Client to the fullest extent permitted by law (e.g. for the Client to be aware on User’s effective presence in the reserved Space, during timeframe reserved using Pluria User App, in accordance with labour legislation). Nevertheless, this Policy does not replace the privacy policy/information on personal data processing that the Client should ensure towards their employees in accordance with the relevant law, or Pluria’s undertaking (partially or totally) the responsibility of Clients with respect to the processing of their employees (Users’) personal data.

(9) User hereby understands that their employer (Client) does not transfer to Pluria the Client’s own responsibilities and obligations with regard to Client’s relationship with Users (e.g. responsibilities under employment relationship relating to tracking start times and end times of the work schedule, obligations relating to tracking User’s working time based on the work relationship with the Client).

(10) User may engage with Pluria User App and its functionalities by observing their obligations in accordance with T&C Pluria App.

3. Categories of Data Subjects

(1) Data subjects for which personal data processing provisions herein apply are the Users of Pluria User App, as defined in accordance with the terms of this Policy and with T&C Pluria App.

(2) Pluria User App is not addressed to, nor designed for, people under 18 years old. Pluria does not intend to process personal data of persons under 18 years old; our Pluria User App and related Pluria Services are not intended to be used by persons of age under 18 years, therefore if you are under 18 years old, do not download and/or use Pluria User App.

Notes:

Downloading Pluria User App from app store

(1) When you download our Pluria User App from the relevant mobile application store, the following data in particular will be automatically processed by the operator of the respective application store (Apple App Store or Google Play):

  • user name in the App Store

  • the e-mail address stored in the App Store,

  • customer number of your App Store account,

  • time of the download,

  • the code number of the Device.

(2) Therefore, the controller of this data is the operator of the app store. We have no control/influence on the collection of this data by mobile app store and are not responsible for it. You can find further information on this data processing in the privacy policy of the operator of the relevant application store. Nevertheless, should you have any discomfort produced by the processing of such app stores, please do not use Pluria User App.

(3) Given that Pluria User App is available for free download, no payment information of the User shall be processed.

Pluria User Account

Once data is filled in by User in User Account, such User data in „My Account” remain unchanged until further amendment by User (name and mobile telephone number) and/or the Client (for clarification, only the Client may ask Pluria to change/amend User’s email address, as data whose accuracy can be controlled only by the Client – as holder of e-mail domain address) / termination of User Account in accordance with T&C Pluria App.

Your reviews/recommendations you send via Pluria User App

(1) Your reviews and ratings of Spaces are important for the Partners; if we want to send them your rating/review that also identifies you, we will do it only after you give us your consent in this respect. Otherwise, the ratings/reviews that do not lead to your identification (e.g. aggregately) will be transmitted to them without your prior consent.

(2) It may be necessary for us to forward (extracts of) your requests to our partners (e.g. our Partners for the Spaces) in order to process your request. In these cases, however, the request will be anonymised beforehand, so that the third party cannot make any connection to you. If, in individual cases, the disclosure of your personal information should be required, we will inform you about this in advance and obtain your consent.

Location-based functionalities of Pluria User App

(1) These functionalities require User to activate function of GPS location of User Device and they further work based on GPS (also provided that the Device is connected to a mobile electronic communication network).

(2) Pluria User App has been designed and implemented so as to limit its access to location sensor of Device to the bare minimum and only when clearly relevant for the proper functioning of Pluria User App, i.e. delivering the location-based functionalities of Pluria User App requested by the User (e.g. checking-in into the Space). Most importantly, location function/sensor of Device is accessed by Pluria User App only after User has provided express permission (consent) for the processing of location data on the Device via the “Allow permission” dialogue/prompt for location access, asking permission for your Device to share that information with Pluria User App. Pluria has no intention/purpose of continuously requesting / using / processing the GPS-location information of the Device, or of monitoring the GPS-location information of the Device. Nevertheless, please turn off geo-localisation, from your Device, when it is not necessary for accessing/using Pluria Services as listed herein. In addition, you prevent the risk of secret monitoring (there may be websites designed to read the location details of the users of smart mobile devices).

(3) GPS-based location information from the Device is created and collected by Pluria independently of an electronic communications network or of an electronic communications service provider, i.e. it is not location data governed by article 9 of ePrivacy Directive[1]/corresponding implementation legislation in EU country where User accesses Pluria Services via Pluria User App (information society services are explicitly excluded from the e-Privacy directive, from the strict definition of electronic communications service).

(4) Nevertheless, we are committed to fully compliance with GDPR when processing such data. The processing of GPS-based location information from the Device (one or more calculated locations), in combination with the unique numbers of any Device, constitutes personal data processing, as it may lead to indirect identifiability of the data subject. We have considered all these aspects and assessed implications thereof, from data privacy perspective. As provider of Pluria User App (i.e. a software application capable of processing geolocation data), Pluria is the controller for the processing of such personal data resulting from the installation and use of Pluria User App.

(5) In dully application of privacy by default and privacy by design principles, Pluria User App does not use a default „ON” setting for GPS-location information from the Device. On the contrary, Pluria User App starts processing GPS-location information from the Device only after User specifically consents to such processing.

(6) Pursuant to User’s consent, GPS-location information is collected by Pluria via Google & Apple Maps services.

(7) Pluria is not responsible for the processing of the GPS-based location information from the Device performed by controllers of geolocation infrastructure (e.g. Google & Apple Maps services) or other by other parties handling such data under their own responsibility (e.g. the developer of the operating system of the Device).

Marketing (commercial communication)

(1) Only if you have consented to receive marketing materials from Pluria, by opting-in for receiving such marketing by indicating your consent via Pluria User App, Pluria may send you such marketing materials via email, phone, SMS (depending on your choice).

(2) You can withdraw/revoke your consent at any time, from your My Account settings or by contacting Pluria at our contact details. When you revoke your consent, we will stop sending you marketing materials (certain details will need to be retained in order for us to know that you’ve revoked your consent and we are no longer allowed to send you marketing materials on the channels you have revoked consent for).

5. Technical Measures and Confidentiality

(1) Pluria implements all technical and organizational measures necessary so as the collection, processing and retention of your personal data to be accomplished securely, including against unauthorised access to/use of your personal data. Among our measures:

  • We have implemented reasonable Security measures to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information that we obtain from you and we will take all reasonable steps to secure and safeguard this information.

  • We encrypt most of our data communication using SSL.

  • We review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems.

  • We restrict access to personal information to employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.

  • Rigorous evaluation and selection of our service providers.

(2) In the cases where Pluria acts as data processor for your personal data, information on such processing shall be ensured by the entity acting as controller of your personal data.

6. Recipients of Data

(1) In addition to the provisions above, please note that when we are dealing with your requests from you, the recipient of your data is you (the data subject).

(2) We may share your data with third party contractors (providers) effectively involved in processing your data for performance of tasks/services related to Pluria User App/Pluria Platform, as indicated in the table under Section 4 above. We use specific and strict rules when selecting our partners/third party contractors, to ensure protection of personal data and compliance with data privacy rules, including GDPR rules, including by concluding data processing agreements in accordance with art. 28 of GDPR.

(3) If we undergo a reorganization or a purchase/sale procedure, we may share your data with third parties involved in such procedures (including auditors, consultants), during audits performed on our activities / business / company. We will ensure such third parties are obliged to keep data secure and implement necessary measures to ensure security of data and that their access is limited only to the data necessary to be processed.

(4) Currently, we seek to keep your personal data within locations in EU countries. If the transfer of Users data to providers/subcontractors/partners in non-EES countries is necessary, or in situations where the place for storing our data or the location of our providers/subcontractors/partners is outside EES boundaries, we will always ensure that a proper legal contract covering such transfer is in place, in accordance with the standards adopted by the European Commission to this end. Nevertheless, should such a third party not have laws equivalent to the UE data protection standards, we shall ask such third-party recipient to enter into a binding agreement reflecting these standards.

7. Retention of Your Personal Data

(1) Unless otherwise provided in the Policy, User personal data is kept only for the completion of the purpose of their collection/processing.

(2) Given the direct contractual relationship between Pluria and the Client (User’s employer) from which your Account stems, only the Client can pursue deletion of your Account, in accordance with the terms of the contract between Client and Pluria. Nevertheless, User can initiate deletion of their personal data in accordance with section 8 below. Pluria shall involve also the Client in the procedure for deletion, without affecting User’s rights. Your data in the Account is anonymised in case the Client’s account is deactivated as per the contract between Client and Pluria. User is hereby informed that the deletion of the Account (in any case) shall automatically trigger the final and irreversible deletion of all information and data related thereto and Pluria shall not be held liable for non-retention of such information and data. The Account cannot be restored after its deletion date.

(3) Accounts that are not used for a 12-month period are de-activated and the corresponding personal data is deleted / anonymized (so that the data subject can no longer be identified), unless we are obliged by law or our legitimate interests to do otherwise. We shall notify the User in advance of the deactivation of their Account.

(4) As regards the data used with the prior consent of the data subject, we will process this data for that purpose only until the User withdraws their consent, unless we are obliged to keep such data for a longer period, according to law, for investigations made by relevant authorities or in order to defend our rights.

(5) Pluria may retain certain data (check-in/ckeck-out, bookings, Puria User ID) in anonymised / aggregate form, for business purposes, with no purpose of identifying individuals (data subjects).
