Harmonyze Privacy Policy
Effective date: April 4, 2025
This Privacy Policy describes how Harmonyze Inc. (“Harmonyze”) collects, uses and discloses information, and what choices you have with respect to the information.
1. Scope of this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to Harmonyze’s products and services, including applicable desktop applications (collectively, the “Services”), Harmonyze.com and other Harmonyze websites (collectively, the “Websites”) and other interactions (e.g., customer service inquiries, user conferences, etc.) you may have with Harmonyze. If you do not agree with the terms, do not access or use the Services, Websites, or any other aspect of Harmonyze’s business.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party applications or software that integrate with the Services through the Harmonyze platform (“Third-Party Services”), or any other third-party products, services or businesses. In addition, a separate agreement governs delivery, access, and use of the Services (the order form(s), Standard Terms and, where applicable, DPA, collectively, the “Agreement”), including the processing of any data submitted through the Services (“Service Data”). The organization (e.g., your employer or another entity or person) that agreed to the Agreement (“Customer”) controls its instance of the Services and any associated Service Data (the “Customer Instance”).
2. Information Harmonyze Collects and Receives
Harmonyze may collect, generate, and receive Service Data and other information and data (“Other Information”; Service Data and Other Information collectively “Information”) in a variety of ways:
- Service data. Customers and individuals granted access to a Customer Instance by a Customer (“Authorized Users”) may submit Service Data to Harmonyze when using the Services.
- Usage information.
- Account information. To create or update a Harmonyze account, you or a Customer (e.g., your employer) supply Harmonyze with an email address, phone number, password, domain and/or similar account details. In addition, Customers that pay for the Services provide Harmonyze (or its payment processors) with billing details such as credit card information, banking information and/or a billing address.
- Services metadata. When an Authorized User interacts with the Services, metadata is generated that provides additional context about the way Authorized Users interact with the Services. For example, Harmonyze logs what Third Party Services are connected with the Services (if any).
- Log data. As with most technology services delivered over the Internet, our servers automatically collect information when you access or use our Websites or Services and record it in log files. This log data may include the Internet Protocol (IP) address, the address of the web page visited before using the Website or Services, browser type and settings, the date and time the Services were used, information about browser configuration and plugins, language preferences and cookie data.
- Device information. Harmonyze collects information about devices accessing the Services, including type of device, what operating system is used, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers and crash data. Whether Harmonyze collects some or all of this information often depends on the type of device used and its settings.
- Cookie information. Harmonyze uses cookies and similar technologies in our Websites and Services to help us collect Other Information. The Websites and Services may also include cookies and similar tracking technologies of third parties, which may collect Other Information about you via the Websites and Services and across other websites and online services. For more details about how Harmonyze uses these technologies, and your opt-out opportunities and other options, please see Harmonyze’s Cookie Policy.
- Third-Party Services. A Customer can connect Third-Party Services to its Customer Instance. Typically, Third-Party Services are software services that integrate with Harmonyze Services, and a Customer can permit its Authorized Users to enable and disable these integrations for its Customer Instance. Harmonyze may also develop and offer Harmonyze applications that connect the Services with a Third-Party Service. Once enabled, the provider of a Third-Party Service may share certain information with Harmonyze. For example, if a single sign-on service is connected with Harmonyze, Harmonyze may receive the username and email address of Authorized Users, along with additional information that the application has elected to make available to Harmonyze to facilitate the integration. Authorized Users should check the privacy settings and notices in these Third-Party Services to understand what data may be disclosed to Harmonyze. When a Third-Party Service is enabled, Harmonyze is authorized to connect and access Other Information made available to Harmonyze in accordance with any permission(s) granted by Customer (including, by its Authorized User(s)). Harmonyze does not, however, receive or store passwords for any of these Third-Party Services when connecting them to the Services.
- Contact information. An Authorized User is required to provide some contact information (e.g., an email address) when making an account on the Services.
- Third-party data. Harmonyze may receive data about organizations, industries, lists of companies that are customers, Website visitors, marketing campaigns and other matters related to our business from affiliates and subsidiaries, our partners, or others that Harmonyze engages with to make Harmonyze’s own information better or more useful. This data may be combined with Other Information Harmonyze collects and might include aggregate-level data, such as which IP addresses correspond to zip codes or countries. Or it might be more specific: for example, how well an online marketing or email campaign performed.
- Additional information provided to Harmonyze. Harmonyze receives Other Information when submitted to our Websites, our Services or in other ways, such as if you participate in a focus group, contest, activity or event, apply for a job, enroll in an educational program hosted by Harmonyze or a vendor, request support, interact with our social media accounts or otherwise communicate with Harmonyze.
3. How Harmonyze Uses Information
Service Data will be used by Harmonyze in accordance with the applicable Agreement, Customer’s use of Services functionality, and as required by applicable law. Harmonyze is a processor of Service Data and Customer is the controller.

If Information is aggregated or de-identified so that it is no longer reasonably associated with an identified or identifiable natural person, Harmonyze may use it for any business purpose. To the extent Information is associated with an identified or identifiable natural person and is protected as personal data under applicable data protection law, it is referred to in this Privacy Policy as “Personal Data.”
4. Data Retention
Harmonyze will retain Service Data in accordance with the applicable Agreement, Customer’s use of Services functionality, and as required by applicable law.

https://trust.harmonyze.com. All data processing occurs in the United States. - Third-Party Services. Customer may enable or permit Authorized Users to enable Third-Party Services. Harmonyze requires each Third-Party Service to disclose all permissions for information access in the Services, but Harmonyze does not guarantee that they do so. When enabled and as requested by Customer, Harmonyze may share Information with Third-Party Services. Third-Party Services are not owned or controlled by Harmonyze and third parties that have been granted access to Information may have their own policies and practices for its collection, use, and sharing.

As part of this effort, Harmonyze may provide the Customer’s basic contact information to the law enforcement or government agency. If compelled to disclose Information to a law enforcement or government agency, then Harmonyze will give the Customer reasonable notice of the demand and cooperation to allow the Customer to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy unless Harmonyze is legally prohibited from doing so.

Security is critical to Harmonyze’s mission, and Harmonyze takes security of data seriously. Harmonyze uses industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect Information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access or disclosure. These steps take into account the sensitivity of the Information Harmonyze collects, processes, and stores, and the current state of technology. Given the nature of communications and information processing technology, Harmonyze cannot guarantee that Information in our care will be absolutely safe from intrusion by others during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise.
