We use this information to provide you Services and for other business purposes.  The types of information about you that you provide and that we collect automatically are listed below along with our uses of that information.

• We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you.

We obtain information from other sources. For example, we may collect information from identity verification services, data brokers, advertising networks, data analytics providers, conference events, and mailing list providers. This information includes business contact information, such as your name, title, and email address.

In addition, we may disclose any of the categories of personal information listed above for the following purposes:

Analytics

We engage others to provide analytics services, and perform related services across the web and in mobile applications. To do this, Mainspring and these partners may use cookies, pixels, SDKs, and similar technologies to collect information about your use of our Services and other websites and mobile apps, including your device identifiers, IP address, web browser and mobile network information, pages viewed, time spent on pages or in mobile apps, links clicked, order information, items added to cart, and conversion information.

Cookies and Similar Tracking Technologies

Mainspring uses cookies and similar tracking technologies, as described above. You can usually adjust your browser settings to remove or reject browser cookies. Please note that removing or rejecting cookies could affect some of the functionality of our Services.

Additional Information for California Residents 

The CCPA provides those residing in California certain rights with respect to their personal information.  Accordingly, if you reside in California, this section applies to you.

California Sales and Sharing of Personal Information

California law requires that we provide transparency about personal information we “sell” or “share.” “Sale,” for the purposes of the CCPA, broadly means scenarios in which we have disclosed personal information with partners in exchange for valuable consideration, while “sharing” means we have disclosed information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising.  Mainspring discloses personal information, which includes identifiers, to our advertising and marketing partners to deliver ads targeted to your interest on other companies’ websites.  Accordingly, Mainspring “shares” your personal information.  In addition, the CCPA has been interpreted to deem this “sharing” to also be a form of “sale.” Accordingly, in the preceding twelve (12) months, Mainspring has “sold” or “shared” your personal information to or with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising, such as targeting of advertising to you based on your personal information obtained from your activity across businesses, websites, apps, and services other than our Services. See Privacy Rights below to learn how to opt out of these activities.

We do not knowingly sell or share personal information about consumers under the age of 16.

Your Rights under the CCPA

Access, Correction, and Deletion

Subject to certain limitations, you have the right to (1) request to know more about and access your personal information, including in a portable format, (2) request deletion of your personal information, and (3) request correction of inaccurate personal information, and (4) opt out of any “sales” or “sharing” of your personal information that may be occurring or uses of your personal information for targeted advertising.

To request access, correction, or deletion of your personal information, contact us at privacy@mainspringenergy.com and include your name, contact information, and if you are requesting access, correction, deletion, and/or opt out of communications from us. If we need to further verify your request, we may do so by asking you to provide information related to your interactions with us.  You can also opt out of sales, sharing, or targeted advertising by contacting us at privacy@mainspringenergy.com.

Nondiscrimination

You have the right not to be discriminated against for exercising any of your privacy rights.

Appeals

If we deny your request, you may appeal our decision by contacting us at privacy@mainspringenergy.com. If you have concerns about the result of an appeal, you may contact the attorney general in the state where you reside.

Authorized Agents

If you reside in California, you may also designate an authorized agent to submit an access, deletion, or correction request on your behalf. We may ask authorized agents to submit proof of their authority to make a request, such as a valid power of attorney or proof that they have signed permission from the consumer who is the subject of the request. In some cases, we may contact the individual who is the subject of the request to verify their own identity or confirm the authorized agent has permission to submit the request. If you are an authorized agent seeking to make an access, correction, or deletion request on behalf of a California resident, please contact us at privacy@mainspringenergy.com.

Do Not Track

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. Please note that we do not respond to or honor DNT signals or similar mechanisms transmitted by web browsers.

International Transfers

Mainspring is based in the United States, and we and our service providers process and store personal information on servers located in the United States and other countries. Whenever we make restricted international transfers of personal information, we take steps to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection (by putting in place appropriate safeguards, such as contractual clauses) or ensure that we can rely on an appropriate derogation under data protection laws.

For Individuals in Europe

If you are located in the European Economic Area (the “EEA”), the United Kingdom (“UK”), or Switzerland, the following specific provisions apply to our processing of your personal information.

Legal Basis for Processing

When we process your personal data as described above, we do so in reliance on the following lawful bases:

• To perform our responsibilities under our contract with you (e.g., communicating with you to provide the products and services you requested). 
• When we have a legitimate interest in processing your personal data to operate our business or protect our interests (e.g., to provide, maintain, and improve our products and services, conduct data analytics, and communicate with you).
• To comply with our legal obligations (e.g., to maintain a record of your consents and track those who have opted out of marketing communications).
• When we have your consent to do so (e.g., when you opt in to receive marketing communications from us). When consent is the legal basis for our processing of your personal data, you may withdraw such consent at any time.

Data Subject Requests 

You may have the right to access your personal information, to have your information rectified or deleted, and to restrict or object to the processing of your personal information. You also may have the right to receive, in a structured, commonly-used and machine-readable format, the personal information that you have provided to us about you, with your consent or based on a contract to which you are a party. You have the right to have this information transmitted to another company, where it is technically feasible. To exercise your rights, please contact us at privacy@mainspringenergy.com.

You also may lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Authority where you reside, if you have a concern about our processing of personal data that we are not able to resolve. Contact details for your Data Protection Authority can be found using the links below:
