Binary House LLC Privacy Policy

1. What is the purpose of this policy?

In this privacy policy ("Policy"), we describe how we collect, use, and disclose personal information ("Data") in relation to our services ("Services"), our website, www.coresignal.com, and other Binary House websites where we post this policy ("Website").

Privacy regulations around the world are continuously evolving and can differ from one jurisdiction to another. While many regulations generally agree on the definition of personal data as any information that directly or indirectly identifies an individual, there are some specific requirements and exceptions. For instance, some U.S. state privacy laws, such as those in California, Colorado, Utah, Connecticut, Virginia and others, do not consider publicly available information as personal data and therefore do not classify it as such.
