Finally, please note that some of the abovementioned Personal Data will be used for fraud detection and
prevention, and for security purposes. The abovementioned Personal Data may also be used to comply with
applicable laws, with investigations performed by the relevant authorities, law enforcement purposes, and/or to
exercise or defend legal claims. In certain cases, we may or will anonymize your Personal Data. “Anonymous

- HOW WE PROTECT AND RETAIN YOUR PERSONAL DATA
- Security. We have implemented appropriate technical, organizational and security measures designed to
protect your Personal Data. However, please note that we cannot guarantee that the information will not be
compromised as a result of unauthorized penetration to our servers. As the security of information depends
in part on the security of the computer, device or network you use to communicate with us and the security
you use to protect your user IDs and passwords, please make sure to take appropriate measures to protect
this information. - Retention of your Personal Data. In addition to the retention periods mentioned above, in some
circumstances we may store your Personal Data for longer periods of time, for example (i) where we are
required to do so in accordance with legal, regulatory, tax or accounting requirements, or (ii) for us
to have an accurate record of your dealings with us in the event of any complaints or challenges, or (iii)
if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation relating to your Personal Data or dealings. We
have an internal data retention policy to ensure that we do not retain your Personal Data perpetually.
Regarding retention of cookies, you can read more in our cookie policy.
- HOW WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
In addition to the recipients described above, we may share your Personal Data as follows:
- To the extent necessary, with regulators, courts or competent authorities, to comply with applicable laws,
regulations and rules (including, without limitation, federal, state or local laws), and requests of law
enforcement, regulatory and other governmental agencies or if required to do so by court order; - If, in the future, we sell or transfer, or we consider selling or transferring, some or all of our business,
shares or assets to a third party, we will disclose your Personal Data to such third party (whether actual
or potential) in connection with the foregoing events; - In the event that we are acquired by, or merged with, a third party entity, or in the event of bankruptcy or
a comparable event, we reserve the right to transfer, disclose or assign your Personal Data in connection
with the foregoing events; and/or - Where you have provided your consent to us sharing or transferring your Personal Data (e.g., where you
provide us with marketing consents or opt-in to optional additional services or functionality).
- ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA
- Storage: AWS – Europe (Ireland).
- Access from Israel: Access from Israel is covered by the European Commission’s Adequacy Decision
regarding Israel. You can read more here: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/data-transfers-outside-eu/adequacy-protection-personal-data-non-eu-countries_en.
- Internal transfers: Transfers within the CISOteria affiliated companies will be covered by an
internal processing agreement entered into by members of the CISOteria affiliated companies (an intra-group
agreement) which contractually obliges each member to ensure that Personal Data receives an adequate and
consistent level of protection wherever it is transferred to.
- External transfers: Where we transfer your Personal Data outside of EU/EEA (for example to third
parties who provide us with services), we will obtain contractual commitments from them to protect your
Personal Data. Some of these assurances are well recognized certification schemes like the EU – US Privacy
Shield for the protection of Personal Data transferred from within the EU to the United States.
- YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS.
- Rights: The following rights (which may be subject to certain exemptions or derogations) shall apply
to certain individuals (some of which only apply to individuals protected by the GDPR): - You have a right to access Personal Data held about you. Your right of access may normally be exercised free
of charge, however we reserve the right to charge an appropriate administrative fee where permitted by
applicable law; - You have the right to request that we rectify any Personal Data we hold that is inaccurate or misleading;
- You have the right to request the erasure/deletion of your Personal Data (e.g. from our records). Please
note that there may be circumstances in which we are required to retain your Personal Data, for example for
the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; - You have the right to object, to or to request restriction, of the processing;
- You have the right to data portability. This means that you may have the right to receive your Personal Data
in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and that you have the right to transmit that
data to another controller; - You have the right to object to profiling;
- You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Please note that there may be circumstances in
which we are entitled to continue processing your data, in particular if the processing is required to meet
our legal and regulatory obligations. Also, please note that the withdrawal of consent shall not affect the
lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal; - You also have a right to request certain details of the basis on which your Personal Data is transferred
outside the European Economic Area, but data transfer agreements and/or other details may need to be
partially redacted for reasons of commercial confidentiality; - You have a right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority (i.e., your
place of habitual residence, place or work or place of alleged infringement) at any time or before the
relevant institutions in your place of residence . We ask that you please attempt to resolve any issues with
us before you contact your local supervisory authority and/or relevant institution.
You can exercise your rights by contacting us at privacy@cisoteria.com.Subject
to legal and other permissible considerations, we will make every reasonable effort to honor your request
promptly in accordance with applicable law or inform you if we require further information in order to fulfil
your request. When processing your request, we may ask you for additional information to confirm or verify your
identity and for security purposes, before processing and/or honoring your request. We reserve the right to
charge a fee where permitted by law, for instance if your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive. In the
event that your request would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others (for example, would impact the
duty of confidentiality we owe to others) or if we are legally entitled to deal with your request in a different
way than initial requested, we will address your request to the maximum extent possible, all in accordance with
applicable law.

privacy@cisoteria.com. If you terminate your account, any association between your account and Personal Data

services, any public activity on your account prior to deletion will remain stored on our servers and will
remain accessible to the public.

optimize this service and experience. Hotjar is a technology service that helps us better understand our
users experience (e.g. how much time they spend on which pages, which links they choose to click, what users
do and don’t like, etc.) and this enables us to build and maintain our service with user feedback. Hotjar
uses cookies and other technologies to collect data on our users’ behavior and their devices (in particular
device’s IP address (captured and stored only in anonymized form), device screen size, device type (unique
device identifiers), browser information, geographic location (country only), preferred language used to

features are updated to also include aggregated data from Google users who have turned on “Ads
Personalization” (Ads Personalization available at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662856/).

turned on Ads Personalization. Google Analytics collects additional information about users who have turned
on Ads Personalization, base across device types and on aggregated data from users who have turned on Ads
Personalization. The data is user based rather than session based. The Cross Device reports include only
