Last Updated: January 1, 2022

This Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) describes the practices of ROC-P, LLC (“ROC-P”) for collecting, using, maintaining, disclosing, and otherwise processing (collectively, “processing”) the information that we collect from you, as well as how we protect and secure your data. If you have additional questions regarding your rights under this Policy or any agreement you may have with ROC-P regarding your data, please contact us. Please read this Policy carefully to understand our processing of your information and how we will treat it.

This Policy generally applies to the information that ROC-P processes. However, this Policy is subordinate to any specific terms and conditions set forth in any contract for services or other agreement you may have with ROC-P relating to a service or data.

Further, this Policy applies only to information ROC-P processes. This Policy does not apply to information collected by ROC-P’s clients, who may have their own privacy policies that apply to you. It is ROC-P’s policy, however, to treat all Personal Information received from our clients with the same or greater care that they use, and to only process the Personal Information they provide for identified, specific purposes. If you receive ROC-P’s services through one of our clients, which may include your employer, trade association, or other entity of which you are a member (all of which we will refer to in this Policy as our “Clients”), please contact them for more information on how they treat your Personal Information.

1. What information does ROC-P collect?

ROC-P generally collects what can be described as Personal Information and Non-Personal Information. We collect this information when you provide it to us, when you purchase or inquire of our goods or services, and when you have provided it to our Clients who then share it with us.

“Personal Information” is information that can be used to identify, locate, or contact you, a natural person, as well as any other information about you that we may connect with Personal Information. For example, Personal Information that we collect includes:

  • Contact information such as your name, email address, phone number, physical address, username, and password;
  • Relationship information such as your preferences or potential interest in ROC-P goods and services;
  • Transactional information such as purchases, services requested, customer service inquiries, session data or log data (for example, your computer’s Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our services that you visit, the time and date of your visit, and the time spent on those pages, to the extent any of the foregoing are kept in a form that may be used to identify you), customer account activity, and other customer account information; and
  • Financial information such as credit card or banking information.

“Non-Personal Information,” on the other hand, is information that does not identify you as a natural person and is not identifiable to you as a natural person. For example, Non-Personal Information that we collect includes:

  • Cookies and other similar tracking technologies processed in a non-identifiable way;
  • Information we anonymize by rendering it unidentifiable to a natural person;
  • Information we aggregate by combining it with other data in such a way that no natural person can be identified or linked to any specific information (for example, ROC-P collects aggregated statistics on the performance of its services and the occurrences of errors within the services); and
  • The name, form, contact details, relationship information, transaction history, or financial information of legal persons. By “legal persons,” we refer to legal, business entities other than natural persons, such as corporations, limited liability companies, non-profit organizations, and other business entities.

2. Why does ROC-P collect this information?

ROC-P collects and processes Personal Information for a variety of purposes depending on the information being processed. ROC-P processes Personal Information to perform under its contractual obligations to you, providing its goods and services and processing information as may be necessary to support you in their use. ROC-P also processes Personal Information given its legitimate interest in improving its goods and services, enhancing customer experience, and identifying and marketing goods or services that may be of interest to you. Finally, ROC-P may process Personal Information as may be necessary to comply with a legal obligation.

To summarize, ROC-P processes Personal Information for the following purposes:

  • To oversee and complete transactions with ROC-P customers;
  • To prepare, deliver, maintain, or otherwise provide ROC-P’s services;
  • To support ROC-P’s services;
  • To set up and maintain your user account and allow you to interact with ROC-P and customers of ROC-P’s services;
  • To provide you with customer service by resolving disputes, addressing complaints, and troubleshooting any technical problems encountered;
  • To measure and understand the effectiveness of ROC-P’s services;
  • To comply with applicable laws and regulations; and
  • To communicate offers for goods and services, including offers based on your interests and purchase of ROC-P’s goods and services, to administer promotional events, and to engage in other marketing activities that may be of interest to you. Please note that we will provide you the opportunity to opt out of direct marketing communications or market research inquiries, but we will still need to gather certain Personal Information as necessary to provide our goods and services to you.

If we would like to process your Personal Information for any other purpose, we will disclose this to you at the time it is collected and may request your express consent.

With respect to Non-Personal Information, because this information does not identify a natural person, ROC-P may use and process it for any purpose. ROC-P expressly reserves the right to use anonymized or aggregated information to improve or develop its goods and services, create and publish reports, conduct statistical analyses about customer interest, monitor industry trends, and otherwise engage in activities that do not result in the disclosure of identifiable information.

To be clear, ROC-P is committed to respecting your privacy and will only process your Personal Information for the reasons disclosed herein or as requested at the time of collection, and then only in the context of your customer relationship with ROC-P. ROC-P will not sell, rent, or lease your Personal Information to others.

3. Will ROC-P share this information with third parties?

To provide certain services, ROC-P may have to share information with third parties who use our services or provide services to us, such as our Clients, service providers, vendors, or operators of software used in our services. For example, as noted above we may share information with your employer, trade association, or other entity of which you are a member, which has engaged us to provide our services to you and with which we will share information as necessary to provide our services. In addition, we may use third party services such as Google Analytics for the collection, monitoring, and analysis of information to improve our services, and we may use other technology providers such as Amazon Web Services, or certain products provided by Google, such as Workspace, which may have access to the information we process as necessary to deliver our services to you.

We will maintain controls and oversight appropriate to ensure that any third party who we engage to assist us in processing your Personal Information will only have access to the Personal Information necessary for it to perform specific, designated tasks on our behalf, will only use the information for this purpose, and will protect your Personal Information to at least the same extent that we do. Please note, however, that this Policy applies only to information that we process and share with others—it does not apply to Personal Information that you share with third parties.

ROC-P may also share information to comply with our legal obligations, such as responding to lawful requests from government or judicial entities. In the event we are asked to disclose your Personal Information, we will attempt to validate the request and inform you of it prior to disclosure.

Finally, ROC-P may disclose Personal Information where needed as part of a sale or transfer of our assets, enforce our rights, protect our property, or protect the rights, property, or safety of others, or as is needed to support external auditing, compliance, and governance functions.

If ROC-P needs to share your Personal Information for a purpose not identified here, we will obtain your consent before doing so and will disclose this purpose at the time of obtaining your consent. For example, ROC-P may wish to use your information in demonstrations or other marketing materials and, if so, will contact you before doing so.

4. How long will ROC-P keep my information?

ROC-P keeps different kinds of information for different lengths of time depending on the purpose for which it is processing the information and depending upon your specific situation. In any event, ROC-P will retain your Personal Information as long as is necessary to accomplish the relevant purpose, but no longer.

5. How does ROC-P keep my information secure?

Taking into account the nature of the information gathered, ROC-P maintains a comprehensive security program that is reasonably designed to protect the security, confidentiality, and integrity of your Personal Information through administrative, technical, and physical controls appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. When developing or improving our goods and services, we incorporate privacy and security into our design.
