Privacy Policy

Last updated on 9 April 2024

Korz Work, provided by Cores Technology BV (hereinafter referred to as "Korz Work", "we", "us", or "our"), is a productivity platform designed to enhance organizational and individual efficiency. Our service enables users to manage tasks, projects, and collaborate with team members effectively. Registered in the Netherlands under registration number 83769404, our registered office is located at Grofsmid 9, 2461 LV, Ter Aar, the Netherlands.

This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, share, and protect information in relation to our website (www.korzwork.com) and services (the "Service"). Information is collected through interactions with our Service via your computer, tablet, phone, or smartwatch ("Device"). We are committed to processing personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”), GDPR-based legislation, and other applicable privacy laws.

Our Privacy Policy is applicable to all visitors, users, and others who access the Service ("Users"). By engaging with our Service, you acknowledge and consent to the collection, use, and sharing of your information as described in this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use.

Our platform is designed to enhance productivity through individual tasks and collaborative projects. It's important to note that any content you share on Korz Work, while described as 'public' within the platform, is only accessible to users you've explicitly invited to your projects or teams. This ensures that your private tasks remain just that - private, unless you decide to share them with your team.

1. What kinds of information do we collect?

1.1 Information you provide

When you register for a Korz Work account using your Google Account, we collect your username, password, and email address. Your profile may also include additional information you choose to provide, such as a profile picture obtained from Google. For the purpose of facilitating collaboration within teams, you may invite other users to join your projects and participate in tasks and chat discussions. All user-generated content, such as tasks, projects, comments, and chat messages, is collected to enhance your productivity and collaborative experience on our platform.

1.2 Log file information

We collect information that your browser sends whenever you visit our Service. This log file information may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics.

1.3 Metadata

Metadata is usually technical data that is associated with User Content. For instance, metadata can describe how, when and by whom a piece of User Content was collected and how that content is formatted. Users can add or may have metadata added to their User Content including a hashtag (e.g. to mark keywords when you post a photo), geotag (e.g. to mark your location to a photo), comments or other data. This makes your User Content more searchable by others and more interactive.

1.4 Analytics services (non-personally identifiable information only)

We utilize Vercel analytics tools to help measure traffic and usage trends for our Service. These tools collect information sent by your device or our Service, including pages you visit and other statistics, to assist us in improving the Service. This data is collected in a form that does not personally identify you. The analytics information is aggregated with data from other users so that it cannot reasonably be used to identify any specific individual.

2. Purposes of processing data

We process your data to provide and enhance our Service, enabling you to create, manage, and collaborate on projects and tasks efficiently. This includes facilitating communication within teams via our chat feature, personalizing your experience based on your interactions and preferences, and ensuring the security of your account and data.

3. Legal basis for processing data

We process your personal data based on several legal bases: to fulfill our contractual obligations to you through the Service's terms and conditions; to comply with our legal obligations; for our legitimate interests in operating and improving our Service; and based on your consent, where applicable, particularly in relation to marketing communications.

5.1 People you share and communicate with

Korz Work facilitates collaboration by allowing you to invite team members to view and participate in projects and tasks.

6. Change of control

In the event of a business transition, such as a merger or acquisition by another company, your information, including personal data and user content, may be among the transferred assets. We will ensure the confidentiality of any personal information involved in such transactions and provide notice before personal information is transferred or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

7. Legal requests and preventing harm

We may access, preserve and share your information in response to a legal request (like a search warrant, court order or subpoena) if we have a good faith belief that the law requires us to do so. We may also access, preserve and share information when we have a good faith belief it is necessary to: detect, prevent and address fraud and other illegal activity; to protect ourselves, you and others, including as part of investigations; and to prevent death or imminent bodily harm. Information we receive about you may be accessed, processed and retained for an extended period of time when it is the subject of a legal request or obligation, governmental investigation, or investigations concerning possible violations of our terms or policies, or otherwise to prevent harm.

We request you to do your part to help us.
