Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information collected through:

• the BrinqAI website and related websites operated by us;
• contact, demo and other website forms;
• newsletter, webinar and event registrations;
• sales and business development activities;
• communications with customers, prospective customers and partners; and
• other interactions where this Privacy Policy is referenced.

Certain BrinqAI products and services, including AcuSight, may process information on behalf of our customers. Where BrinqAI processes information on behalf of a customer, that processing is governed by the applicable customer agreement and related data-processing terms. The customer is generally responsible for determining how personal information within its environment is collected and used.

The personal information we collect depends on how you interact with BrinqAI.

We may collect information such as:

• name;
• business email address;
• telephone number;
• company and organization;
• job title or role;
• information provided through contact, demo or partner inquiry forms;
• newsletter, webinar or event registrations;
• correspondence and other communications with us; and
• information you choose to provide when communicating with BrinqAI.

Information Collected Automatically

When you use our website, we may automatically collect certain technical and usage information, including:

• IP address;
• browser and device information;
• operating system;
• referring website or source;
• pages viewed;
• dates and times of visits; and
• website interaction and performance information.

We may collect this information through cookies and similar technologies.

We may use personal information to:

• respond to inquiries and requests;
• provide requested information, demonstrations or evaluations;
• communicate with customers, prospective customers and partners;
• manage sales and business relationships;
• provide and support our products and services;
• register and communicate with participants in webinars, events and other programs;
• send product updates, news and marketing communications where permitted;
• operate, maintain and improve our website;
• understand website usage and performance;
• maintain the security and integrity of our systems;
• detect and prevent fraud, misuse or security incidents;
• maintain appropriate business and transaction records; and
• comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

We limit the collection and use of personal information to purposes that are appropriate in the circumstances and will obtain additional consent where required for materially different purposes.

Where consent is required, BrinqAI seeks consent appropriate to the nature and sensitivity of the personal information and the purposes for which it will be used.

Consent may be express or implied depending on the circumstances and applicable law.

For example, when you submit a request for a demonstration or contact us about our services, we may use the information you provide to respond to that request and communicate with you about the matter.

Where required, we will obtain separate consent for uses that are not reasonably connected with the purpose for which you originally provided the information.

You may withdraw your consent where applicable, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice.

BrinqAI may send you product news, company updates, event invitations, industry information and other commercial electronic communications where you have consented or where otherwise permitted by applicable law.

You may unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe mechanism provided in the communication or by contacting us.

Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not prevent BrinqAI from sending communications that are necessary to respond to your requests, administer an existing business relationship or provide products or services.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, remember preferences, understand website usage and improve performance.

These technologies may include:

• Essential technologies required for website functionality, security and operation.
• Analytics technologies that help us understand how visitors interact with our website and measure website performance.
• Marketing technologies, where used and permitted, that help us understand the effectiveness of our marketing activities.

Where required by applicable law, we will obtain consent before using non-essential cookies or similar technologies.

You may also be able to manage cookies through your browser settings or through cookie preference controls provided on our website.

BrinqAI does not sell personal information.

We may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary to:

• service providers that support our website, hosting, information technology, analytics, communications, customer relationship management or other business operations;
• professional advisers such as lawyers, accountants and auditors;
• business partners where necessary to respond to a request or provide an agreed service;
• law enforcement, regulators, courts or other authorities where required or permitted by law; or
• a purchaser, investor or other party in connection with a proposed or completed corporate transaction, subject to appropriate confidentiality and legal protections.

Service providers are authorized to process personal information only for the purposes for which it has been provided to them and are subject to appropriate contractual or other safeguards.

BrinqAI is a Canadian company, but we may use service providers located in Canada, the United States and other jurisdictions.

As a result, personal information may be processed or stored outside your province or country of residence and may be subject to the laws of those jurisdictions. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies or governmental authorities in those jurisdictions may have lawful access to the information.

BrinqAI remains responsible for personal information under its control and uses contractual, organizational and other appropriate measures to protect information processed by service providers.

AcuSight is designed to operate within customer-controlled environments, including on-premises deployments.

Production imagery, operational data, model outputs and other customer data generally remain within the customer's environment unless the customer expressly configures or contracts for services that require information to be transmitted to BrinqAI or a third-party service.

Where BrinqAI processes personal information on behalf of a customer in connection with AcuSight or another service, the applicable customer agreement and data-processing terms govern that processing.

Customers are responsible for ensuring they have appropriate authority to collect and process personal information within their environments and for configuring their use of BrinqAI products in accordance with applicable privacy and other laws.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to satisfy applicable legal, accounting, contractual or regulatory requirements.

Retention periods vary depending on the nature of the information, the purposes for which it is used and applicable requirements.

When personal information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely delete, destroy or anonymize it.

BrinqAI uses reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, alteration, loss or destruction. The safeguards we use are appropriate to the nature and sensitivity of the information under our control. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Subject to applicable law, you may request:

• information about personal information BrinqAI holds about you;
• access to your personal information;
• correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information;
• withdrawal of consent where processing depends on consent; or
• information about how your personal information has been used or disclosed.

You may also challenge BrinqAI's compliance with applicable privacy requirements by contacting our Privacy Officer. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a privacy request. Certain information may be exempt from access or deletion requirements where permitted or required by law. Individuals located in jurisdictions that provide additional privacy rights may exercise those rights where applicable.

If you are located in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, applicable privacy laws may provide additional rights regarding your personal information, including rights relating to access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection and data portability. Where applicable, BrinqAI will process requests to exercise these rights in accordance with applicable law.

Where personal information is transferred internationally and applicable law requires specific transfer safeguards, BrinqAI will use appropriate mechanisms for those transfers.

BrinqAI's website, products and services are intended for business and professional users and are not directed to children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through our website.

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, platforms or services.

BrinqAI is not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing them with personal information.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, services or legal requirements.

When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Policy. Where appropriate or required by law, we may provide additional notice of material changes.

BrinqAI has designated a Privacy Officer who is responsible for overseeing our privacy practices and responding to privacy questions, requests and complaints.
