Our Policy:

Welcome to the mobile application (the “Mobile App”) for The Innovation and Design Building of Jamestown, L.P., and its affiliates, subsidiaries, and related companies (“Company”, “we”, “us” and/or “our”), powered by HqO, Inc. (“HqO”). The Innovation and Design Building App and related services are provided by Company to augment a tenant’s experience at our commercial or residential property through providing information, services, and functionality related to the property (collectively, the “Services”), and are subject to the Terms of Service. This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) sets out how Company collects, uses, discloses, and protects any personal information that you provide in connection with your use of the Mobile App and/or Services (“Personal Data”). This Privacy Policy does not apply to any personal data collected by Company other than Personal Data collected through the Mobile App or the Services.

Please read this Privacy Policy to understand how Company may process your Personal Data via your use of the Mobile App and/or Services. If you do not agree to the practices described below please do not use the Mobile App. If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or the practices described herein, please contact us.

 

1. Information We Collect

When you download and use the Mobile App to interact with us through the Services, we collect Personal Data and other information from you, as further described below:

• Personal Data That You Provide: We, or service providers acting on our behalf, collect Personal Data from you when you voluntarily provide such information through the Mobile App, such as when you use one of the available features to, for example, submit a maintenance request or work order, chat with the concierge, use mobile access to enter an area, view transit information, book certain amenities with a third party provider, or register a visitor.
• Depending on the feature used, the Personal Data collected may include your name and contact information, or that of your visitors, as well as any other Personal Data you voluntarily provide, for example, by enabling the following features when requested: (i) location services so that we may collect your location information, (ii) access to the photos and videos stored on your device, and/or (iii) biometric authentication; enabling these features will result in you providing the relevant information, but you can manage your permissions for these features in your device settings. Note that certain Personal Data you provide through the Mobile App (e.g., payment information) is collected directly by service providers acting on our behalf (e.g., the payment processor) and we do not have access to such information. Additionally, certain features of the Mobile App may direct you to other web sites, applications, or services not operated or controlled by us or our service providers (the “Third Party Sites”); any Personal Data you provide while using such Third Party Sites is not subject to this Privacy Policy (please see below for more information about Third Party Sites).
• Information Automatically Collected via the Mobile App: When you interact with Company through the Mobile App, we, and HqO acting on our behalf, automatically receive and store certain information regarding your actions taken within the Mobile App. Such information, which is collected using first-party tracking technologies known as JSON Web Tokens (JWT), cannot presently be used to specifically identify you and includes, but is not limited to, pages of the Mobile App used, content with which you interact, and building events which you attended or in which you have expressed interest. This information may be pooled with other information to track, for example, the total number of users of our Mobile App and the number of users who visit and interact with each page of our Mobile App for the purposes of product development and improvement and to notify you about events and features that may be of interest to you. It is important to note that no Personal Data is available or used in this process.
• Aggregated Data: In an ongoing effort to better understand and serve the tenants of our building and users of the Services, Company and HqO often conduct research on tenant and user demographics, interests and behavior based on the Personal Data and other information provided via the Mobile App. This research may be compiled and analyzed on an aggregate basis by HqO, and Company may share this aggregate data with its affiliates, agents and business partners, including HqO, to use and disclose for their own purposes, as permitted by applicable law. This aggregate information does not identify you personally, nor can it reasonably be associated with you.
