5. Public Information and Third Parties

  1. Harvest Blog: We have public blogs on our Website. Any information you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by anyone. If your personal information appears on our blogs and if you would like to remove it, you can send your request to privacy@getharvest.com. In some cases, we may not be able to remove your personal information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.
  2. Third Parties: We are not responsible and this Privacy Policy does not cover your use of any third-party widgets, features, or websites or links to third-party websites or services. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit or service you use carefully.
  3. We publish customer testimonials on our website, which may contain personal information. We obtain consent to post the customer’s name along with their testimonial. To request the removal of your personal information from a testimonial, please email us at privacy@getharvest.com.
  4. Social Media Widgets: Our Websites include social media features. These features may collect your IP address, which page(s) you are visiting, and may set cookies to make sure they function properly. Social media features and widgets are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our site. Your interactions with those features are governed by the privacy policy of the companies providing them.
  5. Third-Party Integrations: We may offer integrations with third-party products, applications, or other functionality not operated or controlled by us (“Third-Party Integrations”). If a Third-Party Integration is with Google (for example, where we offer Google Calendar, Google SSO, and Google Workspaces integrations), then generally, the data we access from Google is listed in the integration flow, and our use of such data is explained on our integration page. Where applicable, our collection and use of data received from Google’s APIs is informed by Google’s Limited Use Requirements.

6. Security

We take precautions — including administrative, technical, and physical measures — to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect your information, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, however, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card number) on our order form, we encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).

7. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, please refer to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) Notice for more information about our practices and requests you may make under the CCPA.

8. Privacy Shield

Following the Court of Justice of the European Union's decision to invalidate the EU-US Privacy Shield, we have chosen to withdraw from the Privacy Shield frameworks.  However, we remain committed to the Privacy Shield principles for personal data transfers from Switzerland or the European Economic Area to the United States.

9. Correcting and Updating Information

If you are our customer and would like to access or delete information that you provided, you may do this by signing in to Harvest and making the change or by emailing us at privacy@getharvest.com. We will respond to your request within 30 days. We may decline to process unreasonable requests or requests that are not otherwise required by local law.

We retain your information and data that we process on your behalf as long as your account is active, as needed to provide our Services, and as necessary to comply with our legal obligations and resolve disputes.

We have no direct relationship with third parties with whom our users may interact using the Services. Any such party who would like to amend or delete data which may be stored in the Services should direct his or her request to the applicable Harvest user acting as the “data controller” for such information.

Any such party who no longer wishes to be contacted by a Harvest user, should contact that Harvest user directly.
