1. Introduction
This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) is created in order to be transparent about how Eccho Rights AB, situated at Kungsgatan 48, 111 35 Stockholm, Sweden (“Eccho Rights”, “we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses and protects personal information about their clients and others who in some way have been in contact with Eccho Rights.
We will in this Privacy Policy outline the different ways that Eccho Rights process the personal information that is supplied or gathered by Eccho Rights, how we use and protect said information and what your rights are when it comes to controlling or limiting such use.
After you have read through this Privacy Policy, we are confident that you should be more aware of what your rights are in relation to Eccho Rights when it comes to your personal information.
In general, Eccho Rights is required to process personal information in order to fulfil requirements in agreements and other obligations towards our clients. For instance, this may include, but is not limited to, the contact details of a person working for the client. The personal information gathered about this person may be required for example; in order to send inquiries to the company; issuing invoices; or sending them program materials. Eccho Rights also collects so called “cookies” from our websites, which will be explained in greater detail below, allowing us to reach more relevant recipients of the advertisement that we have to offer. There are many examples of where it is necessary for Eccho Rights to process personal information, but for every piece of personal information that Eccho Rights collect, store and use, we want to ensure you that we do so thoughtfully and with your best interest in mind.
There is, however, a distinction to be made here. Information in one category is information you must provide in order for Eccho Rights to perform its obligations towards you and/or your company. When you agree to our Privacy Policy, you give us the right to collect this information and use it for the purposes described. Then there is information in another category which we may only collect if you explicitly give us permission to do so in the future. For this second category of information, we will ask for your permission before first accessing it, we will describe how we will use it if you give us permission, we will only use the information for the purpose we described, and you will always have the ability to change your mind and revoke that permission.
Acceptance of our Privacy Policy does not automatically mean you have granted us permission to access or use information in the secondary category. This is, as just described, something that we will have to ask for.
We will be clear with you about how and when we might share information.
In some contexts, we will share certain information. For example, like most services, if you interact with Eccho Rights through a third party like Facebook or a mobile provider, we share some information with them and they share some information with us in order to enable your interaction. And we also share and receive de-identified information with third-party analytics companies to help us understand how the content we license is performing, with marketing partners who help us with promotional efforts, and with advertisement aggregators who allow us to advertise our programs. There also may be times when we want to share information with you. For example, newsletters are a great way to keep our clients updated on the latest news regarding the programs that we offer. Similarly, you can ask us to share information to you, like the contact information to our sales agents, who may want to directly send you news or promotional offers, but you can also revoke that permission at any time.
With this Privacy Policy we hope that you will get a better understanding of our privacy commitments to you.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at privacy@ecchorights.com.
