Privacy Policy

Effective: January 1, 2024

Welcome to the website (the “Site”) of Raptor Maps, Inc. (“Raptor Maps”, “we”, “us” and/or “our”). This Site is operated by Raptor Maps and has been created to provide information about our company and our all related applications (including app.raptormaps.com, Raptor Solar™, and Enterprise AI), widgets, software, tools, and other Service provided by us and on which a link to this Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) is displayed, and hardware we provide to enable the use of our software platform (together with the Site, the “Services”) to our Service visitors (“you”, “your”). This Policy sets forth Raptor Maps’ policy with respect to information including personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) and other information that is collected from visitors to the Site and Services. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use our Services or provide any Personal Information.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and subject to the Terms and Conditions. By using the Services and the Site, you, on behalf of yourself and your company (as may be applicable), consent to our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy, including our use and disclosure of your personal information as stated in this Privacy Policy.

Raptor Maps complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.  Raptor Maps has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (EU-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from the European Union in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and from the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF.  Raptor Maps has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF.  If there is any conflict between the terms in this privacy policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the Principles shall govern.  To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.

You may, subject to the terms of the Data Privacy Framework, invoke binding arbitration to resolve disputes under certain limited situations. Raptor Maps may have potential liability for onward transfers of Personal Data to third parties.

Personal Information

“Personal Information,” as used in this Policy, is information that specifically identifies an individual, such as an individual’s name, address, telephone number, or e-mail address. Personal Information also includes information about an individual’s activities, such as information about his or her activity on our Services, and demographic information, such as date of birth, gender, geographic area, and preferences, when any of this information is linked to Personal Information that identifies that individual.

Personal Information does not include “aggregate” or other non-personally identifiable information. Aggregate information is information that we collect about a group or category of products, Services, or users that is not personally identifiable, or from which individual identities are removed.

Collection of Information

Collection of Voluntarily-Provided Information
We collect information, which may include Personal Information, that our users provide to us in a variety of ways on our Services. These include the following:

  • Account and Profile Information: We collect information about you when you register for an account, create or modify your profile, set preferences, and sign-up for or make purchases through the Services. For example, you provide your contact information and, in some cases, billing information when you register for the Services. You also have the option of adding a display name, organization name, and other details to your profile information to be displayed in our Services. We keep track of your preferences when you select settings within the Services.

  • Content You Provide Through Our Websites: The Services also include our websites owned or operated by us. We collect other content that you submit to these websites, which include social media or social networking websites operated by us. For example, you provide content to us when you provide feedback or participate in any interactive features, surveys, contests, promotions, sweepstakes, activities or events.

  • Email Newsletters: If you sign up to receive a newsletter from Raptor Maps, we collect your e-mail address.

  • Payment Information: We collect certain payment and billing information when you register for certain paid Services. For example, we ask you to designate a billing representative, including name and contact information, upon registration. You might also provide payment information, such as payment card details, which we collect via secure payment processing services.

  • Data from Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS): Our Service collects data from unmanned aerial systems (“UAS” or “drones”), including telemetry data, map data, location data, and data regarding the systems of the vehicles. This data is not considered Personal Information, provided that it does not contain personally identifying information (such as faces, license plate numbers, etc.) and is necessary in order to perform the Services. We may also collect additional data that is explicitly provided to perform the Services, such as construction drawings.

  • Correspondence: If you contact us by e-mail, using a contact form on the Service, or by mail, fax, or other means, we collect the Personal Information contained within, and associated with, your correspondence to provide you with customer support.

Passive Information Collection

When you use our Service, some information is collected automatically. For example, we automatically collect your browser’s Internet Protocol (IP), your browser type, the nature of the device from which you are visiting the Services (e.g., a personal computer or a mobile device), the identifier for any handheld or mobile device that you may be using, the Website that you visited immediately prior to accessing any Web-based Services, the actions you take on our Services, and the content, features, and activities that you access and participate in on our Services. We may also collect information regarding your interaction with e-mail messages, such as whether you have opened, clicked on, or forwarded a message.

We may collect this information passively using technologies such as standard server logs, cookies, clear GIFs (also known as “Web beacons”) and geo-location tools. We use passively-collected information to administer, operate, and improve the Websites and our other Services and systems, and to provide other content that is tailored to you.

If we link or associate any information gathered through passive means with Personal Information, or if applicable laws require us to treat any information gathered through passive means as Personal Information, we treat the combined information as Personal Information under this Policy. Otherwise, we use and disclose information collected by passive means in aggregate form or otherwise in a non-personally identifiable form. Please be aware that in the course of your use of the Services, websites or other services provided by third parties (“Third-Party Services”), including marketing or website optimization vendors, may set cookies on your hard drive or use other means of passively collecting information about your use of their Third-Party Services or other services or content. To do this, they may use first-party cookies (which are set by the same domain your browser is receiving data from) or third-party cookies (which are set by a different domain). We may also make non-personally identifiable information available to Third-Party Services, and these Third-Party Services may collect such information, to assist such parties in understanding our users’ activities and usage patterns on the Services. If desired, you may use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout) to opt-out of having information collected by Google Analytics. For information about the Mixpanel Third-Party Service and opt-out information, please refer to the “Mixpanel” section below.

We do not have access to, or control over, the actions of Third-Party Services. Each provider of Third-Party Services uses information that it collects in accordance with its own privacy and security policies.

Additionally, please be aware that Google and other third-party vendors may place or recognize one or more unique cookies on your computer when you use the Services, and may record information to these cookies based upon your activities on our Services and on third-party websites and other Third-Party Services. Google and these other third-party vendors may use information about those activities to inform, optimize, and serve advertisements. In particular, we may use Google and other third-party vendors to engage in “remarketing,” in which advertisements you see on third-party websites and services may be based on your prior visits to our Services.

To learn more about these practices, and to opt-out from Google’s and other vendors’ use of information collected on the Services through cookies for advertising purposes, you may visit Google’s Ads Preferences Manager, TRUSTe’s Preference Manager, or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page. Please note that opting-out will not prevent advertisements from being served to you on the Internet; it will only result in advertisements that utilize cookies to serve advertisements on the specified advertising networks from which you opt-out no longer being targeted. We are not responsible for the activities of other parties that may not comply with your opt-out requests.

Information from Other Sources

We may receive information about you, including Personal Information, from third parties, and may combine this information with other Personal Information we maintain about you. If we do so, this Policy governs any combined information that we maintain in personally identifiable format.

Use of Personal Information

How we use the information we collect depends in part on which Services you use, how you use them, and any preferences you have communicated to us. Below are the specific purposes for which we use the information we collect about you.

To provide the Services and personalize your experience: We use information about you to provide the Services to you, including to process transactions with you, authenticate you when you log in, provide customer support, and operate and maintain the Services. For example, we use the name you provide in your account to identify you to other Service users.

For research and development: We are always looking for ways to make our Services smarter, faster, secure, integrated, and useful to you. We use collective learnings about how people use our Services and feedback provided directly to us to troubleshoot and to identify; trends, usage, activity patterns, and areas for integration and improvement of the Services. For example, to improve our Services, we may monitor page load speeds to different users in different regions to determine how to better distribute our Services. In some cases, we apply these learnings across our Services to improve and develop similar features or to better integrate the services you use. We also test and analyze certain new features with some users before rolling the feature out to all users.

To communicate with you about the Services: We use your contact information to send transactional communications via email and within the Services, including confirming your purchases, reminding you of subscription expirations, responding to your comments, questions and requests, providing customer support, and sending you technical notices, updates, security alerts, and administrative messages. We send you email notifications when you or others interact with you on the Services, for example, when you email customer support. We also provide tailored communications based on your activity and interactions with us. For example, certain actions you take in the Services may automatically trigger a feature or third-party app suggestion within the Services that would make that task easier. We also send you communications as you onboard to a particular Service to help you become more proficient in using that Service. These communications are part of the Services and in most cases you cannot opt out of them. If an opt out is available, you will find that option within the communication itself or in your account settings.

To market, promote and drive engagement with the Services: We use your contact information and information about how you use the Services to send promotional communications that may be of specific interest to you, including by email. You can control whether you receive these communications as described below under “Control.”

Customer support: We use your information to resolve technical issues you encounter, to respond to your requests for assistance, to analyze crash information, and to repair and improve the Services.

For safety and security: We use information about you and your Service use to verify accounts and activity, to monitor suspicious or fraudulent activity, and to identify violations of Service policies.

To protect our legitimate business interests and legal rights: Where required by law or where we believe it is necessary to protect our legal rights, interests and the interests of others, we use information about you in connection with legal claims, compliance, regulatory, and audit functions, and disclosures in connection with the acquisition, merger, or sale of a business.

With your consent: We use information about you where you have given us consent to do so for a specific purpose not listed above. For example, we may publish testimonials or featured customer stories to promote the Services, with your permission.

Legal bases for processing (for EEA users)

If you are an individual in the European Economic Area (EEA), we collect and process information about you only where we have legal bases for doing so under applicable EU laws, such as the General Data Protection Regulation. The legal bases depend on the Services you use and how you use them. This means we collect and use your information only where:

  • We need it to provide you the Services;

  • It satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data protection interests), such as for research and development, to market and promote the Services and to protect our legal rights and interests;

  • You give us consent to do so for a specific purpose; or

  • We need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.

If you have consented to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time (though this will not affect any processing that has already taken place). Where we are using your information because we or a third party have a legitimate interest to do so, you have the right to object to that use, though in some cases this may mean no longer using the Services.

When We Share Information

Except as described in this Policy, we will not disclose your Personal Information to third parties without your consent. These exceptions include:

Agents, Consultants, and Related Third Parties

Raptor Maps, like many businesses, sometimes uses third-party service providers (e.g., payment processing and data storage and processing facilities, storage providers) that assist in our work. We may disclose Personal Information to third-party services. When we employ another entity to perform a function of this nature, we only provide them with the information which is reasonably necessary for them to perform their functions.

Mixpanel

We use technologies from Mixpanel, Inc. (“Mixpanel”) to perform statistical evaluations and improve our Service. Mixpanel may collect, on our behalf, Personal Information such as an individual’s email address. You may opt-out of the transmission of your Personal Information at mixpanel.com/optout, however please note that you will delete the opt-out cookie when you delete your Cookies in your browser settings. For more information on Mixpanel’s privacy practices, please refer to their privacy policy located at mixpanel.com/privacy.

Public Areas and Syndicated Service

Some features on our Service may allow you to upload, post, or otherwise transmit User Content to public areas of the Service, such as content that you post in a public profile on the Service. We may make these User Content available for display upon Raptor Maps’ properties that are not governed by this Policy, as well as to Services operated by third parties that display content from the Site (collectively, “Syndicated Service”). Please be aware that any Personal Information that you include within any User Content will be made available to other users of the Service, and to users of Syndicated Service, who view it. You include Personal Information in User Content at your sole risk. We may allow you to select privacy options that limit access to some types of Personal Information in User Content, but no security measures are impenetrable or perfect. Additionally, even after information posted on the Site is removed, caching and archiving Service may have saved that information, and other users or third parties may have copied or stored the information available on the Service. We cannot warrant or guarantee that any Personal Information that you provide on and in connection with the Service will not be accessed, viewed, or used by unauthorized persons.

Business Transfers and Related Companies

As we develop our business, we might sell or buy businesses or assets. In the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution or similar event, Personal Information may be part of the transferred assets. We may also share your Personal Information with our Related Companies for purposes consistent with this Policy.

Compliance with Enforcement Requests and Applicable Laws; Enforcement of Our Rights

In exceptional circumstances, we may share information about you with a third party if we believe that sharing is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, including to meet national security requirements, (b) enforce our agreements, policies and terms of service, (c) protect the security or integrity of our products and services, (d) protect Raptor Maps, our customers or the public from harm or illegal activities, or (e) respond to an emergency which we believe in good faith requires us to disclose information to assist in preventing the death or serious bodily injury of any person.

Choice

If you receive commercial e-mail from us, you may unsubscribe at any time by following the instructions contained within the e-mail. You may also opt-out from receiving commercial e-mail from us, and any other promotional communications that we may send to you from time to time (e.g., by postal mail) by sending your request to us by e-mail at support@raptormaps.com or by writing to us at the address given at the end of this policy. Additionally, if we offer user account functionality on the Service, we may allow you to view and modify settings relating to the nature and frequency of promotional communications that you receive from us.

Please be aware that if you opt-out of receiving commercial e-mail from us, it may take up to ten business days to process your opt-out request, and you may receive commercial e-mail from us during that period. Additionally, even after you opt-out from receiving commercial messages, you will continue to receive administrative messages from us regarding our Service.

Access

If we offer the ability to create user accounts or profiles on our Service, you may have the ability to access and update many categories of personal information that you provide to us by logging in to your account and accessing your account settings. If you wish to access or amend any other personal information we hold about you, you may contact us at support@raptormaps.com.

If you request that we delete your account on any of our Services (via a user settings page, by e-mail, or otherwise), we will do so within a reasonable period of time, but we may need to retain some of your Personal Information in order to satisfy our legal obligations, or where we reasonably believe that we have a legitimate reason to do so.

Links

The Service may contain links to other Web sites, products, or Services that we do not own or operate. For example, the Service may contain links to upload data to another Web site or service for processing on our behalf. The Service also may contain links to Third-Party Services such as social networking, storage, and email services. If you choose to visit or use any Third-Party Sites or products or Services available on or through such Third-Party Sites, please be aware that this Policy will not apply to your activities or any information you disclose while using those Third-Party Sites or any products or Services available on or through such Third-Party Sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these Third-Party Sites or any products or Service on or through them. Additionally, please be aware that the Service may contain links to Web sites and Service that we operate but that are governed by different privacy policies. We encourage you to carefully review the privacy policies applicable to any Web site or service you visit other than the Service before providing any Personal Information on them.

Exclusions

This Policy does not apply to any Personal Information collected by Raptor Maps other than Personal Information collected through the Services. This Policy shall not apply to any unsolicited information you provide to Raptor Maps through the Services or through any other means. This includes, but is not limited to, information posted to any public areas of the Services, such as forums, any ideas for new products or modifications to existing products, and other unsolicited submissions (collectively, “Unsolicited Information”). All Unsolicited Information shall be deemed to be non-confidential and Raptor Maps shall be free to reproduce, use, disclose, and distribute such Unsolicited Information to others without limitation or attribution.

If Raptor Maps intends on using any Personal Information in any manner that is not consistent with this Policy, you will be informed of such anticipated use prior to or at the time at which the Personal Information is collected.

We encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s Internet usage and to help enforce our Policy by instructing their children never to provide Personal Information on the Services without their permission. If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 has provided Personal Information to Raptor Maps through the Services, please contact us at support@raptormaps.com, and we will endeavor to delete that information from our databases.
