How we share information

We may share information in the following circumstances:

Vendors and service providers

We share information with providers that help us operate our business (e.g., hosting, analytics, payment processing, email, support tools). They are contractually required to use the information only for the purposes we specify. See our Subprocessors page for a list.

Integrations at your direction

If you connect third-party services (e.g., accounting, CRM), we may share data with those providers as configured by you.

Legal and compliance reasons

We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Ergova, our users, or the public.

Business transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change.

Data retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services, and thereafter as required for legal, accounting, or security purposes. Account and usage data are typically retained for a period after account closure. You may request deletion of your personal data subject to applicable law and our retention obligations.

Data security

We implement administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular assessments. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

International transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. We take steps to ensure that such transfers are subject to appropriate safeguards (e.g., standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions) where required by law.
