Information we receive from our customers

We collect and store Personal Data provided to us by individuals, law firms, business organizations, and government entities (each, a “Customer”, and collectively, our “Customers”) who sign agreements with us to use our software.

It is not shared with third parties except in compliance with the provisions of the software agreement between a Customer and DISCO, and in such a case, such Personal Data is shared only with third parties who are authorized to receive it under the provisions of the software agreement, which may include without limitation, parties or counsel involved in litigation or other forms of dispute resolution, DISCO affiliates or service providers, and DISCO subprocessors as defined in DISCO’s Data Processing Addendum. Such sharing occurs solely to permit DISCO to exercise its rights and satisfy its obligations pursuant to the software agreement between a Customer and DISCO. We also collect and store names, addresses, email addresses, and email content received from Customer representatives using our software and accessing our support services site at login.csdisco.com and support.csdisco.com.

Information about visitors to our website

Visitors to our website www.csdisco.com will occasionally provide us with Personal Data on a completely voluntary basis.  DISCO will only process and store this data in ways that are compatible with the purpose for which the visitor gave it to DISCO, or for which DISCO stored it, or for purposes the visitor later authorizes. Before we use this data for a purpose that is materially different than the purpose for which we received it or for which it was later authorized, we will provide the visitor with the opportunity to opt out. DISCO maintains reasonable procedures under the circumstances to help ensure that data collected from visitors is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete, and current.

We also collect and store anonymous general information about the use of our websites and software, such as which software features our Customers use most frequently, and which services our Customers access the most. We use only aggregated data for this purpose, which de-identifies any individual Customer or visitor to our site. This information helps us determine what is most beneficial for our users and how we can continually create a better overall software and services experience. We may use this general and aggregated anonymous information and share it with our business partners so that they too may understand how our site is used.

Our Customers may, without our knowledge, provide us data that includes Personal Data relating to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade-union membership, genetic information, or health or sex-life information (collectively “Sensitive Personal Data”), solely for the purpose of using DISCO’s software and services. DISCO does not otherwise collect or store Sensitive Personal Data as a matter of course in its operations and does not ask our Customers or any visitors to supply it.

Under the DPF, we are responsible for the processing of information about you we receive from the EU, UK, and Switzerland and onward transfers to a third party acting as an agent on our behalf. We comply with the DPF Principles for such onward transfers and remain liable in accordance with the DPF Principles if third-party agents that we engage to process such information about you on our behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the DPF Principles unless we prove that we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
