OUR LEGAL BASIS FOR USE OF YOUR INFORMATION

Under applicable law, we are considered the “data controller” of the personal data we collect through our website. We are a data processor of (1) personal data of end users provided directly to us by our clients and (2) personal data we process in the course of operating our clients’ websites or analyzing their email marketing campaigns. We are a data controller of all other personal data we obtain in the course of our relationship with our clients, including: (1) information you provide through your use of the WiFi, including automatically-collected information; and (2) any additional data provided by you directly to us or through our business partners. This means that we are responsible for deciding how to collect, use and disclose this data, subject to applicable law. Our contact information appears at the end of this Privacy Policy.

The laws of some jurisdictions such as the laws of the European Union require data controllers to tell you about the legal ground that they rely on for using, sharing, or disclosing of your information. To the extent those laws apply, our legal grounds are as follows:

• Contractual Commitments: We may use, share, or disclose information to honor our contractual commitments to you. For example, to comply with our Terms of Use, which you accept by accessing or otherwise using the WiFi or our website(s).
• With Your Consent: Where required by law, and in some other cases, we use, share, or disclose information on the basis of your consent. For example, when you registered and consented to our Enhanced Wi-Fi, you consented to our use of your information for marketing purposes.
• Legitimate Interests: In many cases, we use, share, or disclose information on the ground that it furthers our legitimate business interests in ways that are not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the affected individuals, such as customer service, certain promotional activities, analyzing and improving our business, providing security for our Wi-Fi and Enhanced Wi-Fi, preventing fraud, and managing legal issues.
• Legal Compliance: We need to use, share, and disclose information in certain ways to comply with our legal obligations.

Links to Other Websites
This Privacy Statement only addresses AD’s collection, use, and disclosure of your information through our website(s) and Services. Atomic Data WiFi may contain links to other websites with privacy practices that differ from those of Atomic Data WiFi. If you choose to click on a link and visit another website, please be aware that your information will be governed by that website’s privacy policy. For example, our website includes social media Features such as Facebook Share and other widgets. These Features are governed by the Privacy Policy of the company providing the feature or widget. We encourage you to carefully read and review the policies and practices of the websites you visit.

Definitions
We understand that Privacy Statements can often contain confusing terminology. To help you better understand our privacy practices, here is what we mean when we say:

• Cookies: Cookies are small text files created by a web server that are delivered through a web browser and stored on your computer or device. Cookies are used to identify your computer or device and record your preferences and other data so that the website can personalize your visit(s). There are several types of cookies. For example, many websites use their own cookies, called “first-party cookies,” to make their websites run more smoothly by doing things like keeping track of items in your shopping cart. Some websites also provide space for “third-party cookies,” which are placed on your browser by companies different from the company that runs the website you are visiting and may be used to remember parts of your online activities in order to deliver personalized ads or analyze web traffic.
• Personally Identifiable Information (PII): Information that directly identifies or reasonably can be used to figure out the identity of a user, such as your name, address, phone number, and email address. Personal information does not include information that has been made anonymous so that it does not identify a specific user.
• Web Beacons: A small, transparent graphic image (also known as a tracking pixel) located on a web page or HTML email that is often used with a cookie. Web beacons are generally invisible because they are very small and the same color as the background of the Web page or email message.
• WiFi Probe Requests: All WiFi-enabled devices send out requests that contain information about your device. A probe request is a special frame sent by your device requesting information from either a specific access point, specified by SSID, or all access points in the area, specified with the broadcast SSID. The information being requested in a probe includes the supported data rates, which are also included in the beacon frames typically broadcast from an access point. If you do not want information to be sent from your device, you must disable WiFi before entering an area with tracking capability.

Atomic Data WiFi may disclose your information in the following contexts:

Our Clients
Atomic Data WiFi shares your Personally Identifiable Information with its Clients (meaning, the provider of the Internet service at the location you’re at when connecting) or their affiliates to fulfill our contractual obligation to them. Our terms of use agreements restrict our client’s use of PII for the benefit of any third parties. If you believe this there is a violation of this, please contact us or the business where you used the WiFi service.

Any third-party systems are subject to their own privacy policies and are not in our control.

Consent or Legal Permission
Atomic Data WiFi will only disclose your personal information to third parties with your consent. We may obtain your consent in writing or online through “click-through” agreements.

Our Service Providers
Atomic Data WiFi may share or store your personally identifiable information with other companies that perform services on our behalf (for example, our platforms run on network infrastructure owned by our service providers). These service providers are permitted to use the information only for the purpose provided to them and in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy. We require our service providers to comply with industry standards around security, retention, and use of any personal information that we provide to them or that they collect on our behalf.

Legal Purposes
Atomic Data WiFi may access, monitor, use, or disclose your personally identifiable information or communications with us to comply with the law (for example, to comply with a search warrant, subpoena, or court order); to respond to emergencies; to enforce an agreement with you; to protect our rights or property, or the rights or property of our agents, vendors, service providers, members, and customers; or in the case of a corporate sale, merger, dissolution, or acquisition.
Some of the information that Atomic Data WiFi collects is non-personally identifiable that cannot be directly used to identify or reasonably used to identify an individual. Similarly, Atomic Data WiFi may take steps to anonymize or aggregate personal information in order to create non-personally identifiable information. This Privacy Statement does not restrict the disclosure to third parties of non-personally identifiable information.

Data Protection

Security
The security of your information is important to Atomic Data WiFi. Therefore, Atomic Data WiFi follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the security and confidentiality of your information while it is under our control. We maintain physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect against the loss, misuse, and unauthorized access of your information. To the extent that Atomic Data shares information with other companies performing services on our behalf, we may make sure that those companies have adequate security safeguards in place consistent with this Policy.

Access to the information held by any of our systems is limited to authorized personnel who have a legitimate need to know based on their job descriptions, for example, employees who provide technical support to clients, end users, or who service user accounts. In the case of third-party contractors who process information on our behalf, similar requirements are imposed. These third parties are contractually bound by confidentiality clauses, even when they leave. Where an individual employee no longer requires access, that individual’s credentials are revoked.
