Privacy Policy

Publication and effective date: July 1, 2024

Introduction

At Laila Technologies Inc. (referred to as “Laila”, "we", or "our"), your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and disclose your information.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understand, and agree to be legally bound by this Privacy Policy and other policies incorporated herein by reference.

What Information Do We Collect?

Personal Information

Laila may request or otherwise collect information that identifies you as a specific individual or business and can be used to contact or identify you (“Personal Information”).

Examples of Personal Information may include:

• Your name
• Email address
• Mailing address
• Phone number
• Resumes (including any information contained within resumes)
• Certain payment information (such as credit card or other financial account information and billing address)

Laila may also collect Personal Information such as your date of birth or taxpayer identification number, to validate your identity or as may be required by law, such as to complete tax filings. Laila may request documents to verify this information, such as a copy of your government-issued identification or photo or a billing statement.

Laila’s services are intended for users eighteen (18) and older. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from anyone younger than age eighteen (18). If we become aware that a child younger than eighteen (18) has provided us with Personal Information, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete such information from our files. If you are the parent or legal guardian of a child younger than age eighteen (18) and believe that Laila has collected Personal Information from your child, please contact us at: support@laila.co.

Non-Identifying Information

Laila may also collect other information, such as:

• Zip codes
• Demographic data
• General project-related data (“Non-Identifying Information”)

Laila may aggregate information collected from users. Certain Non-Identifying Information would be considered a part of your Personal Information if it were combined with other identifiers in a way that enables you to be identified (for example, combining information with your name). But the same pieces of information are considered Non-Identifying Information when they are taken alone or combined only with other non-identifying information. Laila may combine your Personal Information with Non-Identifying Information, but we will treat the combined information as Personal Information.

Information Received from Third Parties

Laila may also receive information about you from third parties. For example, we may supplement the information we collect with outside records or third parties may provide information in connection with a co-marketing agreement or at your request. If we combine the information received from others with information we collect directly, we will treat the combined information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Laila or its third-party providers may automatically collect certain information from you whenever you access or interact with our website.

This information may include, among other information:

• The browser and operating system you are using
• The URL or advertisement that referred you to our website
• The search terms you entered into a search engine that led you to our website
• Areas within our website that you visited
• The time of day you visited the website
• The amount of time you spent on those pages
• Other information commonly shared when browsers communicate with websites

We may combine this automatically collected information with other information we collect about you. We do this to improve marketing, analytics, and site functionality. The information we collect may also include the Internet Protocol (“IP”) address or other unique device identifier (“Device Identifier”) for any device (computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.) used to access our website. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned or connected to the device you use to access our website, and our servers identify your device by its Device Identifier. Some mobile users of our website providers may also provide us or our third-party website providers with information regarding the physical location of the device used to access our website.

Our website providers may use a variety of other technologies that collect similar information for security and fraud detection purposes and we may use third parties to perform services on our website on our behalf.

Laila may also collect certain information about your work history, including descriptions of work previously performed, skills, tests taken, test scores, hourly pay rates, feedback/rating information, and other information (“Profile”). If you believe that an unauthorized Profile has been created about you, you can contact us to discuss at: support@laila.co.

UNLESS YOU REQUEST THAT WE DELETE CERTAIN INFORMATION, WE MAY RETAIN THE INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE COLLECTED FOR AT LEAST FIVE (5) YEARS AND MAY RETAIN THE INFORMATION FOR AS LONG AS NEEDED FOR OUR BUSINESS AND LEGAL PURPOSES.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Laila may share aggregated Non-Identifying Information and may otherwise disclose Non-Identifying Information to third parties. We will not share your Personal Information with third parties for those third parties’ marketing purposes unless we first provide you with the opportunity to opt-in to or opt-out of such sharing. We may also share the information we have collected about you, including Personal Information, as disclosed at the time you provide your information, with your consent, as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, or in the following circumstances:

• Sharing Information with Users
• Third-Party Service Providers
• Business Transfers
• Legal Requirements

Sharing Information with Users

Laila may share information regarding Talent that we deem relevant to your potential assignment to a particular Customer, including, but not limited to, the information contained in your Profile.

If you have entered into a Service Contract with another User, we may provide the User with your name, address, or tax ID or VAT number in order to complete the transaction or to facilitate the resolution of a claim or dispute. The User receiving your information is not allowed to use it for purposes unrelated to the transaction, such as to contact you for marketing purposes, unless you have expressly consented to it.

Third-Party Service Providers

Laila may employ third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our website, to provide our website on our behalf, to perform website-related maintenance, database management, web analytics, online advertising, payment processing, fraud detection, and overall improvements of our features or to assist us in analyzing how our website is used. These third parties may have access to your Personal Information in order to perform these tasks on our behalf.

Business Transfers

We may sell, transfer, or otherwise share some or all of our assets, including your Personal Information, in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets (including, in each case, as part of the due diligence process with any potential acquiring entity) or in the event of bankruptcy. You will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our website of any change in ownership or uses of your personal information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your personal information.

Legal Requirements

At Laila, we prioritize your privacy and are committed to transparency regarding how we handle your information. We operate in the United States and will only share information with government agencies as required by law. We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. However, we will only disclose information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties when we believe, in our sole discretion, that it is necessary or appropriate to respond to valid legal processes, such as a subpoena, court order, or search warrant.

We are committed to protecting the property and rights of Laila or third parties, ensuring public safety, and preventing or stopping activity we consider to be illegal, fraudulent, unethical, or legally actionable.

Whenever possible, we will notify you before disclosing your information, unless legally prohibited. Your trust is paramount to us, and we strive to maintain the highest standards of privacy and security.

User Responsibilities and Data Management

You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of the information you submit to us, such as your contact information. You can update your information at any time by accessing the settings in your account. If you encounter any issues, you can also contact us directly for assistance. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to honor your request, provided however that Personal Information may remain in our archives and may persist internally or for our administrative purposes. It is not always possible to completely remove or delete information from our databases.

Laila cannot ensure, and does not warrant, the security of any information you provide to us.

Our website contains links to other websites. If you choose to click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s website. The fact that we link to a website is not an endorsement, authorization, or representation of our affiliation with that third party, nor is it an endorsement of their privacy or information security policies or practices. We do not exercise control over third-party websites. These other websites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data, or solicit Personal Information from you. We encourage you to read the privacy policies or statements of the other websites you visit.
