Mudroom provides forms on our website that potential customers can fill out to request information about our service. When you fill out one of these forms, you will provide personal data.

This includes use for internal purposes such as auditing or research and analysis of our products, services and communications. We may occasionally use Personal Information to send you important notices such as software updates or notices related to your purchases and billing status, changes to our policies, or changes to our products or services. Because this information is critical in nature, you may not be able to opt out of receiving these notices for as long as you continue to use Mudroom. We may use Personal Information to administer any special program you may have voluntarily entered into, such as a sweepstake, contest or promotion. We may also combine your Personal Information with other information to improve Mudroom, our content, and advertising. We will display your Personal Information in your profile page and elsewhere in Mudroom according to your preferences.

To collect information, we use various technologies, such as “cookies”, pixel tags and web beacons on our website, in Mudroom, and in email messages and advertisements. These technologies help improve the user experience – for example by keeping a user logged in and remembering their username or other information between sessions.
The method by which information is collected is not used to determine whether it is Personal Information or Non-Personal Information. Instead, that determination is made in accordance with definitions in this Privacy Policy.
At times we may make certain Personal Information available to strategic partners and service providers solely for the purpose of assisting us in providing, enhancing or marketing Mudroom. For example, we may use third parties to process credit card and payment information in accordance with PCI compliance security guidelines.
We will verify any third parties with whom we share your Personal Information also publicly claim and represent their own adherence to GDPR Standards and employ privacy guidelines substantively consistent with those represented in this policy.
Some data included in Mudroom products is sourced from Third Party providers. This data is generally pulled from public sources and used to improve the product experience of Mudroom users. Any personal data that Mudroom receives from third parties will be treated with the same care that Mudroom treats data directly received from users and in accordance with Mudroom's GDPR commitments.
If we receive personal data subject to our certification under the Privacy Shield and then transfer it to a third-party service provider acting as an agent on our behalf, we have certain liability under the Privacy Shield if both (i) the agent processes the personal data in a manner inconsistent with the Privacy Shield and (ii) we are responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
We may be legally compelled – due to law, legal process, litigation, and/or requests from public and governmental authorities within or outside your country of residence − to disclose your Personal Information or Non-Personal Information. We will only disclose information about you if we determine it is necessary or appropriately required by law related to a clear purpose of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance. Unless legally restricted from doing so, we will attempt to notify you of any disclosure of your Personal Information we are legally-compelled to make.
We may also disclose information about you if we determine that disclosure is reasonably necessary to ensure compliance with our service terms, or to protect our operations or our other users.
In the event of a reorganization, merger, sale or change of ownership we may transfer any and all information, including Personal Information we collect, to the new owner.
Our websites may contain links to other sites that are not under our control. These websites have their own policies regarding privacy. You should review those policies when visiting third party websites. We are not responsible for linked websites, and we provide these links solely for the convenience and information of our users.
It is your responsibility to keep your passwords used with Mudroom private and secure. We strongly recommend against sharing your logins and passwords with others.
We take industry standard precautions through administrative, technical and physical measures to protect your Personal Information and Non-Personal Information against loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all web pages that collect any Personal Information. Using an SSL-enabled browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Internet Explorer is required when your Personal Information is transmitted over the Internet.
When you use some features of Mudroom, such as sharing your Mudroom achievements on social media, the Personal Information and Non Personal Information you share are visible to others and can be read, collected, or used by them. You are responsible for the information you disclose in this way.
We take reasonable steps to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems but cannot guarantee these security measures will prevent third parties from obtaining Personal Information or Non Personal Information by illegal actions or attacks. Should such an attack occur, we will notify you via email in accordance with local law and our commitment to GDPR and we will supply the appropriate authorities with available information on the third party in the event the attack comes under prosecution.

Subject to certain limitations, the CCPA provides California consumers the right to request to know more details about the categories or specific pieces of personal information we collect (including how we use and disclose this information), to delete their personal information, to opt out of any “sales” that may be occurring, and to not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

Our founder-led engineering team has over a decade of prior experience securely and durably managing petabytes of highly confidential data for some of the world's biggest companies. Here are some ways we keep your data secure at Mudroom:
Our technical team is governed by a comprehensive Security Trust Policy based on industry best practices. We only access a Mudroom account to troubleshoot technical issues. Mudroom staff will never ask you for any password.
Your credit card and billing information is only stored securely via PCI-compliant industry-leading payment services.
Mudroom's preference is to establish account authorization using OAuth. OAuth is an industry standard for authorizing secure delegated access to external apps and service providers. When connecting Mudroom via OAuth, we never receive or store your password and you can revoke our access at anytime.
For instances where OAuth authorization is not used, Mudroom allows you to connect using a traditional username and password system. In these cases, Mudroom uses encryption to securely store a representation of your password.
You are responsible to choose secure passwords and to keep them safe. Mudroom cannot be responsible for data that is compromised due to an insecure or stolen user password. If using OAuth to authenticate, those underlying passwords must also be kept secure by you.
If you are a security researcher or you believe you have encountered a problem in Mudroom's security, please review the following.
Please report any security concerns to policies@mudroom.co. If you want to send an encrypted message, please request our public key.
We ask you provide us with a reasonable amount of time to address reports before publishing security-related information.
You are legally restricted from conducting any security research that could result in the destruction of data, interruption or degradation of service. This includes the use of automated tools or scanners: they are likely to cause your IP address to be banned from our network.
All inquiries to Mudroom about this Agreement or the Privacy Policy, including requests to delete user data, should be made by emailing our policies department.
