Welcome to the ThermoGRID Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy explains:
- What information we collect and why we collect it.
- How we use that information.

We collect information in the following ways:
- Information you give us.For example, many of our services require you to sign up for a ThermoGRID Account. When you do, we’ll ask forpersonal information, like your name, email address, telephone number or credit card to store with your account. If you want to take full advantage of the features we offer, we might also ask you to create a publicly visible ThermoGRID Profile, which may include your name and photo.
- Information we get from your use of our services. We collect information about the services that you use and how you use them, like when you usecertain features, update prices, and job cost. This information includes:

- Unique application numbers
Certain services include a unique application number. This number and information about your installation (for example, the operating system type and application version number) may be sent to ThermoGRID when you install or uninstall that service or when that service periodically contacts our servers, such as for automatic updates.
- Local storage
We may collect and store information (including personal information) locally on your device usingmechanisms such as browser web storage (including HTML 5) and application data caches.

For more information about how you can access, manage or delete information that is associated with your ThermoGRID Account.
How we use information we collect
We use the information we collect from all of our services to provide, maintain, protect and improve them, to develop new ones, and to protect ThermoGRID and our users. We also use this information to offer you tailored features – like giving you more flexibility and options.
We may use the name you provide for your ThermoGRID Profile across all of the services we offer that require a ThermoGRID Account. In addition, we may replace past names associated with your ThermoGRID Account so that you are represented consistently across all our services. If other users already have your email, or other information that identifies you, we may show them your publicly visible ThermoGRID Profile information, such as your name and photo.
If you have a ThermoGRID Account, we may display your Profile name, Profile photo, and actions you take on ThermoGRID or on third-party applications connected to your ThermoGRID Account (such as pricing, reviews you write and performance and comments you post) in our services, including displaying in ads and other commercial contexts.
When you contact ThermoGRID, we keep a record of your communication to help solve any issues you might be facing. We may use your email address to inform you about our services, such as letting you know about upcoming changes or improvements.
We useinformation collected from cookies and other technologies, like tags, to improve your user experience and the overall quality of our services. One of the products we use to do this on ourown services is ThermoGRID Analytics. For example, by saving your preferences, we’ll be able to have our services appear in the settings you prefer.
Our automated systems analyze your content (including emails) to provide you personally relevant product features, such as customized products and services.
We maycombine personal information from one service with information, including personal information, from other ThermoGRID services– for example to make it easier setup up companies. Depending on your account settings, your activity on other sites and apps may be associated with your personal information in orderto improve ThermoGRID’s services and the ads delivered by ThermoGRID.
We will ask for your consent before using information for a purpose other than those that are set out in this Privacy Policy.
ThermoGRID processes personal information on our servers in many countries around the world. We may process your personal information on a server located outside the country where you live.
Information you share
Many of our services let you share information with others. Remember that when you share information publicly, it may be index able by search engines, including ThermoGRID.
Accessing and updating your personal information
Whenever you use our services, we aim to provide you with access to your personal information. If that information is wrong, we strive to give you ways to update it quickly or to delete it – unless we have to keep that information for legitimate business or legal purposes. When updating your personal information, we may ask you to verify your identity before we can act on your request.
We may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup systems that does not belong to you).
Where we can provide information access and correction, we will do for free, except where it would require a disproportionate effort. We aim to maintain our services in a manner that protects information from accidental or malicious destruction. Because of this, after you delete information from our services, we may not immediately delete residual copies from our active servers and may not remove information from our backup systems.

- With domain administrators
If your ThermoGRID Account is managed for you by a domain administrator (for example, for your accountant users) then your accountant administrator and resellers who provide user support to your organization will have access to your ThermoGRID Account information (including your email and other data). Your accountant administrator may be able to:
- view statistics regarding your account, like statistics regarding applications you install.
- change your account password.
- access or retain information stored as part of your account.
- receive your account information in order to satisfy applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.

- meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.
- enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations.
- detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
- protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of ThermoGRID, our users or the public as required or permitted by law.

If ThermoGRID is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, we will continue to ensure the confidentiality of any personal information and give affected users notice before personal information is transferred or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
Information security
We work hard to protect ThermoGRID and our users from unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of information we hold. In particular:
- We encrypt many of our servicesusing SSL.
- We review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems.
