GDPR

Who we are

We are the folks behind a variety of products and services. Our website address is: https://estamos.in/.

We take data privacy seriously. This privacy policy explains who we are, how we collect, share, and use Personal Information, and how you can exercise your privacy rights.

Estamos.In is committed to protecting the privacy of the data relating to our users, and their clients. We will collect, store, use and protect any personal information that you share with us. We will not share your information with anyone, except as described in this Privacy Policy.

Throughout this Privacy Policy, we will refer to our website, applications delivered via the web, and other related services collectively as the “Service.”

This Privacy Policy does not apply to information we collect by other means than your use of the Service (including offline) or from other sources. When you sign up for Estamos.In and use the Service you agree to accept this Privacy Policy.

We reserve the right to change this policy at any time, and if we do so, we will post changes and updates to this page. Please refer to this policy periodically to inform yourself if changes have been made.

We collect certain information through our website, located at www.Estamos.In.com (our “Website”). This page (this “Privacy Policy”) lays out our policies and procedures surrounding the collection and handling of any such information that identifies an individual user or that could be used to contact or locate him or her (“Personally Identifiable Information” or “PII”).

Information we may collect

We collect the following Personally Identifiable Information from users who buy our products and services: name, email address, telephone number, address, and credit card number.

In addition, upon using the Service, individual transaction data obtained from your third-party invoicing or accounting application, (“Quickbooks,” “Xero,” “Clio” etc.) information collected via the browser, user generated content and other information uploaded to the website by the user, in conjunction with your use of the Service may be collected. Information obtained through these means that relates to the user’s client or customer to be invoiced through Estamos.In may at times be referred to as “Third-Party Client Information” throughout this Privacy Policy.

Additional information from or about you may also be collected in other ways, including responses to customer surveys and any communications with our customer service team.

We use “cookies” so that our Website can remember you and provide you with the information you’re most likely to need. For instance, when you return to the Website, cookies identify you and prompt the site to provide your username (not your password), so you can sign in more quickly. Cookies also allow our Website to remind you of your past usage and to suggest similar products and services. Finally, we use information gained through cookies to compile statistical information about use of our Website, such as the time users spend at the site and the pages they visit most often. Those statistics do not include PII.

Our Use of Personally Identifiable Information

We use your Personally Identifiable Information to create your account, to communicate with you about products and services you’ve purchased, to offer additional products and services, and to bill you. We also use this information to the extent necessary to enforce our Website terms of service and to prevent imminent harm to persons or property.

When you use the Service, including accepting a payment, contacting customer service or requesting technical support, in addition to many other interactions with Estamos.In, we will apply the information that we have collected. Knowing this information allows us to verify your identity, communicate with you and enforce our agreements with you, as well as secure the best possible experience for all Estamos.In customers by ensuring compliance with applicable US state and federal laws and our own policies. We may also use this information to improve and enhance our offerings to you.

Estamos.In may use certain information about you without identifying you as an individual to third parties. We do this for purposes such as analyzing how the Service is used, diagnosing service or technical problems, maintaining security, and personalizing content.

Protecting Personal information

Information that can be used to identify a person is “Personally Identifiable Information”. This does not include information that has been aggregated or made anonymous. All information is securely stored on our servers in the United States. We employ the highest in industry standards to protect Personally Identifiable Information, as well as any information provided relating to your invoiced customers.

Third-party client and customer information, provided to Estamos.In by users, shall be considered confidential and shall not be disclosed to any third party, unless required to do so by law or subpoena or if we believe that such action is necessary to conform to the law, or comply with legal process served on us. Such information shall be utilized only for the purpose for which Estamos.In was created, which is to facilitate the billing and collection process for electronic billing of customers and clients.

Although Estamos.In utilizes the highest reasonable levels of data security in the industry, we cannot guarantee the security of PII or other information provided to us. By using our Website, you acknowledge and agree that we make no such guarantee, and that you use our Website at your own risk.

Sharing Personal information

Estamos.In will not rent or sell your Personal Information to others. We may store personal information in locations outside the direct control of Estamos.In (for instance, on servers or databases co-located with hosting providers). Estamos.In will share your Personal Information with a limited number of Estamos.In partners for the explicit purpose of providing services to you. If we do this, such third parties’ use of your Personal Information will be bound by terms at least as restrictive as this Privacy Policy.

As we develop our business, we may buy or sell assets or business offerings. Customer, transaction, email, and visitor information is generally one of the transferred business assets in these types of transactions. We may also transfer such information in the course of corporate divestitures, bankruptcy, mergers, or dissolution.

Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, Estamos.In will not disclose Personal Information to any third party unless required to do so by law or subpoena or if we believe that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the law, comply with legal process served on us or our affiliates, or investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities; (b) to enforce our User Agreement, take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, or to protect the security or integrity of our site; and (c) to exercise or protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Estamos.In, our customers or others.

Compromise of Personal Information

In the event that personal information is compromised as a result of a breach of security, Estamos.In will promptly notify those persons whose personal information has been compromised, in accordance with the notification procedures set forth in this Privacy Policy, by email, or as otherwise required by applicable law.

Estamos.In shall not be liable for the transfer of any personal identification information resulting from loss or distribution of data, the delineation or corruption of storage media, power failures, natural phenomena, riots, acts of vandalism, sabotage, terrorism or any other event beyond Estamos.In’s control.

Data Protection and GDPR

Introduction

Estamos.In is committed to protecting the privacy of our users and their customers. We stay appraised of developments in data protection laws to ensure that you can be confident in your safety while using our platform.

This page is intended to explain what the rules are, how they apply to your use of the Estamos.In platform and the steps we have taken to comply.

You should review this document in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and contact a specialist legal professional if you require more information or advice.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
Regulation (EU) 2016/679, more commonly known at the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is an EU regulation aimed at harmonizing data protection and privacy laws across the EU. The provisions of the GDPR apply wherever personal data of an EU data subject is involved.

The GDPR is focused on giving individuals more control over how their data is used by companies and making the collection and processing of data more transparent.
The GDPR was incorporated directly into UK law following the end of the Brexit transition period, meaning that UK businesses still have to comply with its provisions through the ‘UK GDPR’.

Basic GDPR concepts

Controller and processor
The GDPR imposes various obligations on a person depending on whether they are a controller or a processor of personal data.

A controller is an entity which decides to process personal data and makes decisions regarding the basis of processing and the methods which will be used. Controllers have certain obligations regarding personal data, which you should familiarize yourself with before collecting personal data from your customers.

A processor is an entity which processes data for and on behalf of a controller. They make no independent decisions regarding the data or its processing, as they only process it on behalf of the controller and must comply with all instructions given by the controller.

When you use the Estamos.In service, you are a controller. You are in control of the data you upload to the Estamos.In system, what you do with that data, and why. As a result, you are responsible for ensuring that you have a legal basis on which to process the data, and that you do not retain the data for any longer than is necessary.
You should ensure that you understand your obligations as a controller and update your own systems and policies to allow the lawful transfer of personal data to Estamos.In. Estamos.In is a data processor. We, through the Estamos platform, store and manage the data you have collected under your instructions. We will never use any personal data which you have uploaded to the Estamos.In system for our own purposes or without your instruction.

Legal basis for processing

Personal data may only be collected and processed if there is a legal basis for doing so. The allowable legal bases are set out in the GDPR.As a processor, Estamos.In relies on our customers to select the correct basis under which they will be collecting and processing personal data, and to put the appropriate notices and consents in place. Before you use the Estamos.In service, you should take time to identify which legal bases may be available to you, and only collect and retain personal data to the extent necessary to carry out that basis. You should not change the basis under which you have collected personal data without very good reason, so it is important to understand the requirements of the different bases and make sure you select the right one at the start.

Data subject access rights

The GDPR grants data subjects (i.e. your customers) certain rights relating to their personal data, including the right to access, correct and/or delete any data relating to them.
Estamos.In has put in place easy systems for you to inform us if you receive such a request from a data subject, and for us to inform you if we receive such a request. We will ensure that, following your instructions, these requests are promptly complied with. You should familiarize yourself with the obligations which will be imposed on you, including relating to any personal data you hold on your own systems, or services other than Estamos.InTransfers of data to the USA
Personal data may not be transferred outside the EEA other than under specific circumstances. We utilize the Standard Contractual Clauses as part of our Data Processing Agreement which we sign with all of our customers.

Data Security
We have put in place strong security safeguards and measures to ensure that any personal data we hold is stored securely. We regularly test our products for bugs and vulnerabilities.
We ensure that we have regular back-up systems in place and ensure that we have data recovery and data integrity systems and processes to minimize risk of corruption to or loss of personal data.

Steps we have taken to ensure GDPR compliance

We take our duties as a processor very seriously. We have put in place a number of procedures and taken a number of steps in order to ensure that we remain compliant with the GDPR and that you are able to lawfully send personal data collected by you to us, for example:
Our data processing agreement utilizes the Standard Contractual Clauses to ensure that you are able to lawfully send personal data to us in the USA.

  • We are able to detect personal breaches and to inform our customers as soon as possible.
  • We are able to deal with subject access requests and rights of erasure requests, and ensure that we inform you when a data subject has made such a request to us.
  • We have assessed and documented the personal data processed by us on your behalf.
  • We have assessed our security and upgraded this where necessary to ensure that it is appropriate for the level of risk we face in relation to a data breach.
