We may also disclose aggregated user statistics to third parties, including without limitation, to current and prospective business partners and other third-parties for other lawful purposes.
Information collected via the Software is used to help us understand how you use Elementor, and in what areas we could improve it. It shows us the areas that need more integrations and compatibility, and we analyze this to add new features to Elementor, as well as improve our documentation and tutorials.
We use third parties to send you targeted/interest-based ads, based on the personal data provided to us.
Who Do We Share Personal Data With?
In plain English: We share your personal data only under confidentiality obligations and only to provide you with software and services. We may disclose information to legal authorities.
International Transfer
Our servers may be hosted in various countries and jurisdictions that may be outside the country from which you access the Services and may be outside your country of residence.
We may transfer personal data across several countries.
Some of the uses and disclosures mentioned in this Privacy Policy may involve the transfer of your personal data to various countries around the world that may have different levels of privacy protection than your country and may be transferred outside of the European Economic Area.
If there is a transfer of your personal data outside the EEA we will, in the absence of an EC Adequacy decision relevant to the destination country or the transfer, seek to rely on appropriate safeguards such as a valid Privacy Shield certification (in the case of a data transfer to a Privacy Shield certified US recipient): https://www.privacyshield.gov/welcome), or enter into appropriate EC approved standard contractual clauses (see http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/international-transfers/transfer/index_en.htm).
Third-Parties
In plain English: We use third-parties.
As part of providing the Services our affiliates, agents, contractors, representatives, trusted business partners, and third-party service providers (including without limitation, the following entities) may have access to your personal data:
We use Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Twitter Ads, Microsoft Ads, AdRoll, and LinkedIn Ads to reach our target audience with relevant ads. We use the data to track sales and other business goals, all the data is being masked, and the company can’t identify any action from a specific customer or user.
