We ask that you  read this privacy policy carefully and familiarize yourself with its content.

However, if you wish to use some of our features (e.g. to receive our newsletter or provide other details by filling a form) then you may provide personal data to us.

2.2 Whistleblowing Channel

If you are aware of any suspected or actual illegal, unethical or inappropriate events relating to Trafi, you may report them on the trafi.com website via our whistleblowing channel. You are welcome to submit a report in any form of your choice; including by email to legal@trafi.com or by post to the ‘Trafi Legal Department’ at any of our offices. We ask you to provide us with all the relevant details to help us to investigate the reported inappropriate behaviour. We ask that you provide the following information, but solely at your discretion:

  • Details about you: (first name, last name, personal identification number/date of birth, workplace, position, relation with Trafi, telephone number or other contact information). You are not obligated to share these details with us. However, if you do, then we guarantee your confidentiality. 

  • Details about the person or persons who committed the breach: (first name, last name, workplace, position). Are there other persons who were, or could have been, involved in the breach? If so, please indicate who they are.

  • Details of the witness or witnesses to the breach: Are there other witnesses to the violation? If so, provide their contact details.

  • Information on the breach. What breach are you reporting? What kind of breach is this? Place and time of the breach. When did you learn about it or notice it? Have you already reported this breach to anyone? If so, who did you notify, and did you receive a reply? If you have received an answer, please outline its content.

  • Any additional remarks and comments you have in relation to the  breach: If there are documents to support the investigation of the breach, please also include these with your report.

We will keep your provided personal data no longer as we consider necessary for the purposes why your data were collected and to comply with our legal obligations and contractual obligations, resolve disputes and investigate reported breach or inappropriate behaviour.

2.3 Filling in LinkedIn Forms

We use LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms as part of our marketing activity. If you choose to, you can provide your information to Trafi by submitting one of these forms on LinkedIn with your pre-filled personal data: first name, last name, email address, job title, job function and company name. 

You might choose to provide this information in order to register for one of our events, to access specific content of your interest, or to sign up to receive direct marketing communications from us.

Please note that ‘direct marketing’ includes sending you content deemed relevant to you based on your professional profile or your interactions with Trafi content (e.g. downloading white papers, attending webinars, interest in our newsletter, etc.) Examples of the type of content we might send via direct marketing include arranging a demo, registering for a webinar, sharing industry reports, or an invite to participate in surveys. You may choose to stop receiving our marketing emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instruction.

This data will only be transferred from your LinkedIn profile to us with your specific consent to do so. You can revoke your consent at any time by unsubscribing from our marketing and/or send an email to privacy@trafi.com

Please note that LinkedIn is an external third party that may process your personal data for many other purposes. Please consult LinkedIn’s privacy policy to get that information. If you have any questions or concerns don’t hesitate to contact us at privacy@trafi.com.

2.4 Other Channels

We might have communications through other channels or you might also enter into contact with us directly; for instance, by sending an email to any of our employees, to our generic emails (e.g. privacy@trafi.com) and/or by other platforms. In these situations we will use the data only if based on your consent, if we have a contract with you or if we have a legitimate business interest to do so. We may also use the data as required or permitted by law to comply with our legal obligations. 

3. Trafi Ads

3.1 Trafi Ads on LinkedIn 

Trafi also uses another LinkedIn service: the Linkedin Ad Campaigns. As such, Trafi requests LinkedIn to match our campaigns with target audience profiles (e.g. based on a relevant country, industry and/or based on similar profiles of our interested users in the Lead Gen Forms). Note that when requesting LinkedIn to send ads to similar profiles of our interested users in the Lead Gen Forms, Trafi does it solely with a legitimate and business interest to improve our visibility and optimize our campaigns on the social media LinkedIn. 

To ensure data minimization, Trafi only sees the data reports from the ad campaign on an aggregate level so we can assess the performance and effectiveness of our advertisements and campaigns without having access to any data that identifies each individual. We will see the data of our target’s audience aggregated like their locations or impressions. 

Note that to receive these aggregated reports, LinkedIn may track you and send you target advertisements. Please check out LinkedIn’s privacy policy to get further information and LinkedIn Ad preferences to manage your ad preferences. If you don’t wish to receive ads, please manage your preferences on LinkedIn accordingly. Again, if you have any questions or concerns don’t hesitate to contact us at privacy@trafi.com to help you. 

4. Trafi Analytics in our Marketing Strategies 

Additionally, for analytics on our marketing strategies and communication activities we might use some of your aggregated data. Reports could include stats such as “20% of the attendees in a Trafi conference are from Germany”, “Client interest is coming from the Tech industry”, or “In 2021/Q3 we’ve increased our newsletter subscriptions by 35%”. 

We will not report, in any way, either internally or externally, data that could identify any person. Our analytics aim to measure and accomplish our company’s legitimate interests in increasing our market presence and supporting our commercial objectives. 

5. Cookies on our Website
