Effective July 22, 2018
iNewsletter takes data privacy seriously. This privacy policy explains who we are, how we collect, share and use Personal Information, and how you can exercise your privacy rights.
We recommend that you read this privacy policy in full to ensure you are fully informed.
iNewsletter is an online newsletter platform (the “Services”) operated by Naavi Pty Ltd, a company headquartered in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia (“we,” “us,” “our,” and “iNewsletter”).
The Services enable our Users to, among other things, create and send interactive online newsletters.
In this privacy policy, these terms have the following meanings:
“Subscriber” is a person a User may contact through our Services. In other words, a Subscriber is anyone on a User’s Distribution List or about whom a User has given us information. For example, if you are a User, a subscriber to your online newsletter would be considered a Subscriber.
“Distribution List” is a list of Subscribers a User may upload or manage on our platform and all associated information related to those Subscribers (for example, email addresses).
“User” means any person or entity that is registered with us to use the Services.
“Personal Information” means any information that identifies or can be used to identify a User, a Subscriber, or a Visitor, directly or indirectly. Examples of Personal Information include, but are not limited to, first and last name, date of birth, email address, gender, occupation, or other demographic information.
“Website(s)” means any website(s) we own and operate (such as newsletters.naavi.com) or any web pages, interactive features, applications, widgets, blogs, social networks, social network “tabs,” or other online, mobile, or wireless offerings that post a link to this privacy policy.
“Visitor” means any person who visits any of our Websites.
“you” and “your” means, depending on the context, either a User, a Subscriber, or a Visitor.
This section applies to the Personal Information we collect and process from a User or potential User through the provision of the Services. If you are not a User, the Visitors or Subscribers section of this policy may be more applicable to you and your data. In this section, “you” and “your” refer to Users and potential Users.
The Personal Information that we may collect broadly falls into the following categories:
Information you provide to us: In the course of engaging with our Services, you may provide Personal Information about you and your Subscribers. Personal Information is often, but not exclusively, provided to us when you sign up for and use the Services, consult with our customer service team, send us an email, integrate the Services with another website or service (for example, when you choose to connect your school management system with iNewsletter), or communicate with us in any other way.
We will let you know prior to collection whether the provision of Personal Information we are collecting is compulsory or if it may be provided on a voluntary basis and the consequences, if any, of not providing the information. By giving us this information, you agree to this information being collected, used and disclosed as described in our Terms of Use and in this privacy policy.
We may use the Personal Information we collect through the Services or other sources for a range of reasons, including:
You can connect your Google account with the Services in order to access some optional features. When you connect your Google account to the Services we store a token provided by Google that allows us access to any Google information you have provided explicit access to. This access can be revoked at any time from your Google account settings. In addition to the above list (Use of Personal Information), your Google account data might be used to:
We and our partners may use various technologies to collect and store information when you use our Services, and this may include using cookies and similar tracking technologies, such as pixels and web beacons. For example, we use web beacons in the emails we send on your behalf. These web beacons track certain behavior such as whether the email sent through the Services was delivered and opened and whether links within the email were clicked. They also allow us to collect information such as the recipient’s IP address, browser, email client type and other similar details. We use this information to measure the performance of your newsletters, and to provide analytics information and enhance the effectiveness of our Services. Reports are also available to us when we send email to you, so we may collect and review that information.
A Distribution List can be created in a number of ways, including by importing Subscribers, such as through a CSV file. Your Distribution Lists are stored on a secure iNewsletter server. We do not, under any circumstances, sell your Distribution Lists. If someone on your Distribution List complains or contacts us, we might then contact that person. You may export (download) your Distribution Lists from iNewsletter at any time.
If we detect abusive or illegal behavior related to your Distribution List, we may share your Distribution List or portions of it with affected ISPs or anti-spam organizations to the extent permitted or required by applicable law.
You and your Subscribers may have the following data protection rights:
To access, correct, update or request deletion of Personal Information. iNewsletter takes reasonable steps to ensure that the data we collect is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete and up to date. As a User, you can manage many of your individual account and profile settings within the dashboard provided through the iNewsletter platform, or you may contact us directly by emailing us at support@naavi.com. You can also manage information about your Subscribers within the dashboard provided through the iNewsletter platform to assist you with responding to requests to access, correct, update or delete information that you receive from your Subscribers.
In addition, individuals who are residents of the EEA can object to processing of their Personal Information, ask to restrict processing of their Personal Information or request portability of their Personal Information. You can exercise these rights by contacting us using the contact details provided in the “Questions and Concerns” section below. If any of your Subscribers wishes to exercise any of these rights, they should contact you directly, or contact us as described in the “Privacy for Subscribers” section below.
Similarly, if Personal Information is collected or processed on the basis of consent, the data subject can withdraw their consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect processing of your Personal Information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent. If you receive these requests from Subscribers, you can segment your lists within the iNewsletter platform to ensure that you only send newsletters to Subscribers who have not opted out of receiving such marketing.
The right to complain to a data protection authority about the collection and use of Personal Information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority. Contact details for data protection authorities in the EEA are available here.
We respond to all requests we receive from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in accordance with applicable data protection law. We may ask you to verify your identity in order to help us respond efficiently to your request. If we receive a request from one of your Subscribers, we will either direct the Subscriber to reach out to you, or, if appropriate, we may respond directly to their request.
This section applies to the information we process about our Users’ Subscribers as a data controller pursuant to our legitimate business interests, as explained in the “Legal Basis for Processing” section below. Our Services are intended for use by our Users. As a result, for much of the Personal Information we collect and process about Subscribers through the Services, we act as a processor on behalf of our Users. iNewsletter is not responsible for the privacy or security practices of our Users, which may differ from those set forth in this privacy policy. Please check with individual Users about the policies they have in place. For purposes of this section, “you” and “your” refer to Subscribers.

We may share and disclose your Personal Information to the following types of third parties for the purposes described in this privacy policy (for purposes of this section, “you” and “your” refer to Users, Subscribers, and Visitors unless otherwise indicated):
If you are from the European Economic Area, our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Information described above will depend on the Personal Information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.
However, we will normally collect and use Personal Information from you where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data-protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. Typically, our legitimate interests include improving, maintaining, providing, and enhancing our technology, products, and services; ensuring the security of the Services and our Websites; and for our marketing activities.
If you are a User, we may need the Personal Information to perform a contract with you. In some limited cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect Personal Information from you.
If we ask you to provide Personal Information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contact with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your Personal Information is mandatory or not, as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your Personal Information.
Where required by law, we will collect Personal Information only where we have your consent to do so.
If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your Personal Information, please contact us using the contact details provided in the “Questions and Concerns” section below.
Users and Visitors who have opted in to our marketing emails can opt out of receiving marketing emails from us at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of our marketing messages.
Also, all opt-out requests can be made by emailing us using the contact details provided in the “Questions and Concerns” section below. Please note that some communications (such as service messages, account notifications, billing information) are considered transactional and necessary for account management, and Users cannot opt out of these messages unless you cancel your iNewsletter account.
We take appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect Personal Information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction, taking into account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of the Personal Information. If you have any questions about the security of your Personal Information, you may contact us at support@naavi.com.
iNewsletter accounts require an email address and password to log in. Users must keep their email address and password secure, and never disclose it to a third party. Because the information in a User’s iNewsletter account is so sensitive, account passwords are hashed, which means we cannot see a User’s password. We cannot resend forgotten passwords either. We will only provide Users with instructions on how to reset them.

Our servers are located in the Australia and our offices are located in Australia. While the data protection, privacy, and other laws of Australia might not be as comprehensive as those in your country, we take many steps to protect your privacy.

Retention of Data We retain Personal Information where we have an ongoing legitimate business or legal need to do so. Our retention periods will vary depending on the type of data involved, but, generally, we’ll refer to these criteria in order to determine retention period:
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your Personal Information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your Personal Information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
