LAST REVISED OCTOBER 24, 2023
MAILSHAKE IS OWNED AND OPERATED BY MAILSHAKE, LLC
Mailshake, LLC (“Mailshake”, “we” or “us”) recognizes the importance of privacy for our customers and users. We want to be transparent about how we collect and use information in connection with the website Mailshake.com (the “Site”) and any service offered by the company, provided in connection with the Site or otherwise (the “Services”). Thus, we developed a privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) that applies to the Site and Services, and this is incorporated by reference into the Site Terms of Use accessible here.
In this Privacy Policy, we’ll often refer to “Personal Information”. This is information that identifies (directly or indirectly) a particular individual. Personal Information may include (without limitation) your first name, last name and email address, and you may provide Personal Information to us in many ways including on our forms, surveys, applications or during account creation or usage.
In this Privacy Policy, when we refer to “you” or “your,” we mean any person accessing the Site. If the person accessing this Site acts on behalf of another person or entity, “you” or “your” also means that other person or entity. By submitting Personal Information through the Site or Services, you are providing your permission and consent for the collection, use, retention and disclosure of Personal Information as set forth in this Privacy Policy. You should not submit the Personal Information of another person through the Site or Services if you do not have permission for the use, retention and disclosure of the Personal Information as set forth in this Privacy Policy.
The Privacy Policy describes the following:
Before we discuss the types of information we collect, please note that use of our Site and Services is strictly limited to persons who have attained the age of majority in the jurisdiction in which they reside; you must be at least eighteen (18) years old to use our Site and Services in any jurisdiction. Mailshake does not knowingly collect or store any Personal Information or any information from any persons under the age of 13. If Mailshake discovers that Personal Information of persons under 13 years of age, or the age of consent in certain jurisdictions, has been collected or stored, Mailshake will take the appropriate steps to delete this information from our systems.
INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE VOLUNTARILY TO US
We collect Personal Information from you directly. For example, we may obtain Personal Information when you request information, products or services from or otherwise interact with the Site or Services, or fill out a Registration Form.
We may also collect Personal Information through your access to your accounts online, as well as your asking questions through our “Contact Us” link, such as your name, address, e-mail address and other contact information. We may also collect data resulting from your activity on the Site, such as transaction information.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT AUTOMATICALLY
We collect navigational information about where visitors go on our Site and information about the technical efficiencies of our Site and Services. In the process of gathering navigational information, anonymous information may be collected which will provide information to us regarding use of our Site. Anonymous information is information that does not directly or indirectly identify, or cannot reasonably be used to identify, a particular individual. Examples of anonymous information may include information about your Internet browser, domain type, usage statistics, and service provider, collected through tracking technologies and aggregated or de-identified data.
We may also collect anonymized location information or your IP address for analytics purposes, and we may authorize third parties to do so. This information may be collected from your mobile device’s location-aware features when you request certain services that are dependent on your physical location.
COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING MECHANISMS
Depending on how you access and use our Site and Services, you may use a browser feature known as a “cookie.” A cookie is a piece of data stored on the computer that runs an Internet browser and is commonly used to store information about a user’s online activities, including information such as the content or advertisements that a user views or the pages a user visits within a particular website. A cookie can contain information about you, your computer, your browser, your session, the websites you visit and other information about you or others who use, or have used, the computer or browser you use to access the Internet. Cookies are used for record-keeping purposes: the stored information can be retrieved by our website server when you return to the website. This allows us to personalize or regulate the use of this Site, and it also permits us to automate the access and data entry functions of this Site (e.g., login information), and to tailor the appearance or presentation of this Site to your preferences or interests.
We use cookies as a convenience feature to save you time, to understand how our Site is used, and to improve the content and offerings on our Site. For example, we may use cookies to personalize your experience at our web pages or recall your specific information on subsequent visits (e.g., to recognize you by name when you return to our Site). We may also use cookies to offer you or inform you of products, programs or services and targeted advertising. You can opt to have your browser reject cookies.
Most or all browsers permit you to disable or reject cookies. You can do this by adjusting your preferences in the browser.
Below is a non-exhaustive list of the cookies, explanations and cookie policies, if applicable, on the Site. While we will maintain the accuracy of this list in good faith, it may not be complete or fully up-to-date.

DO NOT TRACK
Except as may be otherwise required by applicable law, Mailshake does not track its customers over time and across third party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to “Do Not Track” signals or other mechanisms that provide consumers the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of Personal Information about an individual consumer’s online activities over time and across third-party Web sites or online services. Accordingly, your selection of the “Do Not Track” option provided by your browser may not have any effect on our analytics or tracking tools. Use the “Help” feature of your browser to obtain more information about refusing cookies. If you set the browser you use to reject cookies, you may not be able to access the Site or use the full functionality of the Site, or it may take additional time to utilize such functionality. If you opt to reject cookies, you may need to re-register with us every time you visit our Site. Your continued use of our Site reflects your consent to allow additional cookies to be placed on your computer to help you navigate the Site.
PIXEL TAGS, WEB BEACONS AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
These are typically small pieces of data that are embedded in images on the Site, our applications or certain e-mail communications that we send to you. They may involve the transmission of information directly to us, to another party on our behalf or to another party in accordance with its privacy policy. We may use these technologies to track your engagement with our application or our marketing messages.
CLICKSTREAM DATA
As you use the Internet, a trail of electronic information is left at each website you visit. This information, which is sometimes referred to as “clickstream data,” can be collected and stored by a website’s server. Clickstream data can identify the type of computer and browsing software you use and the address of the website from which you linked to the Site. We may use clickstream data as a form of non-Personal Information to anonymously determine how much time visitors spend on each page of the Site, how visitors navigate throughout the Site and how we may tailor our web pages to better meet the needs of visitors.
LOG FILES
Mailshake or our hosting provider may collect traffic information from visitors for statistical analysis and Site improvement. When you access the Site, we (or our hosting provider) may collect information about your visit in a log file on a server. Log file information may include, but is not limited to, internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks. We (or our hosting provider) use this information to analyze trends, administer sites, track users’ movements in the aggregate, and gather demographic information for aggregate use. We (or our hosting provider) may review this information to better understand overall trends and to determine what kinds of content are popular with and useful to users.
INFORMATION PROVIDED BY CUSTOMERS
We collect Personal Information submitted by our customers while using the Services. For example, we may obtain Personal Information about a sales prospect of a customer from the customer’s CRM or other software/tool.
INFORMATION OTHER WEBSITES COLLECT FROM YOU
Our Site may contain links to other websites operated by other parties whose practices may be different than ours. When you click on such links and visit such other websites, you need to be aware that we may not control such other websites or such other websites’ business practices, and that this Privacy Policy does not apply to such other websites. Consequently, the operators of such other websites may collect different kinds of information about you and may use and disclose that information in different ways than we would if it were collected on the Site.
We may use your Personal Information to provide the Services, help us improve our product and service offerings, improve the Site’s functionality, process queries on the Site, to contact you when necessary in connection with products or services you accessed or inquired about via the Site (i.e. troubleshooting your account), to provide you with account login credentials, and to send you information, offers and other promotional materials from us and third parties, for any other purpose where authorized by you, and for any other lawful purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

We require a small set of permissions on your third-party email account to be able to do this and will only use it for the purpose of providing you with our Services or for diagnosing issues related to your third-party email account.

PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS
We may contact you for promotional purposes via email or other lawful means, including but not limited to, contacts made on behalf of our customers as part of the Services, and third-party or partner messages in connection with products, goods or services that may be of interest to you. We recommend that users who no longer wish to receive promotional materials or have their information provided to third parties modify their account settings, as you may have chosen to receive promotional materials in the account registration process. If you are still receiving promotional materials 30 days after modifying your account settings to no longer receive such emails, you may contact us directly using the information below and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with changes you request. Note that our compliance with such requests in certain cases may involve batch processing and other processes that take 30 days or longer.

Please note that ordinarily changing or deleting your information through the Site, or otherwise opting out of receipt of email communications from us and third parties, will only change or delete the data in our database for purposes of transacting future business on or relating to the Site and for managing future communications from us and third parties. Except as may be otherwise required by applicable law, these changes and deletions will not change or delete information collected or submitted pursuant to any customer agreement, or information already collected as part of a product or service purchase in our transactions database which may be shared with our third-party service providers regardless of your email preferences.

Mailshake takes reasonable precautions to protect Personal Information provided to us through the Site from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. Mailshake has put in place reasonable and appropriate physical, electronic and managerial procedures designed to safeguard and secure such Personal Information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. Our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary. While Mailshake strives to undertake such reasonable and necessary efforts to secure Personal Information provided to us through the Site, even such security measures do not guarantee the security of all Personal Information, and Mailshake cannot guarantee that the Personal Information it collects, uses and retains will be protected in all circumstances, including those beyond Mailshake’s reasonable control.
Particularly sensitive information is encrypted. You can usually tell whether encryption is being used by noting the “locked” or other status indicator on the browser you are using. If the browser you are using does not indicate that the session is secure (e.g., by displaying a lock, a key or a similar icon), you should assume that the connection is not secure and that third parties will receive the information shared by you and us during that part of the session. Your information may be transferred to and maintained on computer networks that may be located outside of the state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction in which you reside, and the country or jurisdiction in which these computer networks are located may not have privacy laws as protective as the laws in your country or jurisdiction.
