Privacy Policy

Qanopy Group respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how R&S Pearlstein, Inc., doing business as Qanopy Group ("Qanopy," "we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit qanopygroup.com or otherwise interact with us through the website (the "Site").

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following categories of personal information:

• Information you provide directly. This may include your first and last name, email address, telephone number, company, job title or role, subject, message, and any other information you submit through a contact form, newsletter sign-up, gated-download form, access-code request, event registration, survey, or similar feature.
• Business and relationship information. If you communicate or work with us, we may maintain records of our correspondence, your interests, requested materials, meetings, and our business relationship.
• Website and device information. When you use the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, links clicked, approximate location derived from your IP address, and the date and time of your visit.
• Cookie and analytics information. We may use cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to operate the Site, remember preferences, understand how visitors use the Site, measure the effectiveness of content, and improve the user experience.

Please do not submit confidential, proprietary, sensitive personal, or regulated information through a general website form unless we specifically request it.

2. How We Use Information

We may use personal information to:

• Respond to inquiries and requests;
• Provide requested articles, case studies, frameworks, tools, newsletters, or access codes;
• Communicate about Qanopy's services, events, insights, and other information that may be relevant to you;
• Manage contacts and business relationships;
• Operate, maintain, secure, analyze, and improve the Site;
• Detect and prevent fraud, misuse, security incidents, and technical problems;
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements; and
• Carry out another purpose disclosed when information is collected or with your consent.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in the message or by contacting us. We may still send non-promotional communications relating to an existing business relationship or a request you made.

3. How We Disclose Information

We may disclose personal information in the following circumstances:

• Service providers. We may provide information to vendors that support our website, customer relationship management, email communications, hosting, analytics, cybersecurity, document delivery, and other business operations. For example, information submitted through forms may be transmitted to and stored in HubSpot, which helps us manage contacts, requests, and communications. These providers may process personal information on our behalf or as otherwise described in their own privacy notices.
• Professional advisers. We may disclose information to attorneys, accountants, insurers, consultants, or other advisers when reasonably necessary.
• Legal and safety purposes. We may disclose information when we believe it is necessary to comply with law, legal process, or a government request; protect the rights, property, or safety of Qanopy or others; investigate fraud or misuse; or enforce our agreements.
• Business transactions. Information may be disclosed or transferred in connection with a merger, financing, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards.
• With your direction or consent. We may disclose information when you ask us to or consent to the disclosure.

Qanopy does not sell personal information for money. Qanopy also does not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. If our practices change, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide any notices or choices required by applicable law.

4. Cookies, Analytics, and Embedded Content

The Site may use essential, functional, and analytics cookies or similar technologies. You can generally manage cookies through your browser settings and, if available on the Site, through our cookie-preference tool. Blocking some cookies may affect Site functionality.

The Site may include content or features provided by third parties, such as videos, maps, social-media features, scheduling tools, or links to external websites. These third parties may collect information about your interaction with their content and may use cookies or similar technologies under their own privacy policies. Qanopy does not control the privacy practices of third parties.

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting. Because there is not a universally accepted standard for responding to Do Not Track signals, the Site may not respond to them. Where required by applicable law, we will honor legally recognized browser-based opt-out preference signals.

5. Your Privacy Choices and Requests

Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have the right to request that we:

• Confirm whether we process personal information about you;
• Provide access to or a copy of your personal information;
• Correct inaccurate personal information;
• Delete personal information;
• Restrict or object to certain processing; or
• Provide information in a portable format.

You may also withdraw consent where our processing is based on consent. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before the withdrawal.

To submit a request, email info@qanopygroup.com with the subject line Privacy Request or contact us using the information below. Please describe your request and provide enough information for us to reasonably verify your identity. We may need to retain certain information when permitted or required by law, including for legal, security, recordkeeping, or contractual purposes. We will not discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to respond to requests, maintain business and legal records, manage our relationships, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and satisfy legal, tax, accounting, or security obligations. Retention periods vary based on the nature of the information, the reason it was collected, and applicable legal requirements.

7. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no website, internet transmission, or storage system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please use care when deciding what information to send electronically.

8. International Visitors

Qanopy is based in the United States. If you visit the Site from another country, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States and other countries where Qanopy or its service providers operate. Those countries may have privacy laws that differ from the laws in your country. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers and process personal information in accordance with applicable law.

9. Children's Privacy

The Site is intended for business and professional audiences and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Site. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can take appropriate action.
