Data Collection and Use Statement
Pairtree’s goal is to assist farmers in the running of their farms by allowing them to manage, store and utilise data gathered at their property via our software solutions. As such, it is necessary for us to collect and have access to data which belongs to you for us to provide service via Pairtree Platforms. This applies whether you are a farmer using Pairtree CORE, or a licensed White Label user with access to Pairtree software. To assist you in understanding how we collect and use your data, we have included in these terms this Data Collection and Use Statement, which should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy.
(a) The types of data we collect
We collect and store, on our servers, all data which you access and manage using Pairtree software. If you a farmer, this may include data and information which relates to operations, conditions or other characteristics of a particular farmer or farm.
(b) Why we collect and store data
The primary purpose for which we collect data is to enhance the products and services we provide.
(c) What we don’t do with your data
We will not:
(a) i. share your data with third parties without your permission. We may, however, ask you if you wish to opt-in to certain data-sharing programs, under which we may share your data with third parties for analysis or data handling. When we share data with a third party with your permission, the third party does not receive title to your data;
(b) ii. use your data for our own commercial purposes or sell it to third parties, even if the data has been anonymised.
(d) What we may do with your data
We may use data internally:
(a). for internal purposes including management reporting, data analysis, meeting any regulatory requirements, and servicing of Pairtree Platform users generally; and
(b). to assist us with research and product development to improve your experience.
(e) Data retention period
After your relationship with us has ended (when you cease your use of all Pairtree Platforms, e.g. by cancelling your Pairtree CORE subscription), we will retain data which you have provided to us during your use of the Pairtree Platforms for a period of up to six months while you find a new home for your data. We may charge ongoing fees for retaining your data beyond this period, if you request that we do so.
What happens to information provided to Pairtree when I contact you?
All remarks, suggestions, ideas, graphics, or other information communicated to Pairtree through our website or by email to us (referred to as Submissions) will be the property of Pairtree. For clarity, this does not include data you or a third party inputs into the Pairtree CORE dashboard which is compiled from readings or collected at your farm. Pairtree will not be required to treat any Submission as confidential, and will not be liable for any ideas for its business (including without limitation, product, or advertising ideas) and will not incur any liability as a result of any similarities that may appear in future Pairtree operations. Without limitation, Pairtree will have exclusive ownership of all present and future existing rights to the Submission of every kind and nature everywhere. Except as noted below in this paragraph, Pairtree will be entitled to use the Submission for any commercial or other purpose whatsoever without compensation to you or any other person sending the Submission. Personally identifiable information that may be received at this website is provided voluntarily by a visitor to this website. You acknowledge that you are responsible for whatever material you submit to us, and you, not Pairtree have full responsibility for the message, including its legality, reliability, appropriateness, originality, and copyright.
