Thank you for visiting Resonant, owned and operated by Resonant, Inc. (referred to as “Resonant,” “us,” “our,” “we”). We are committed to respecting privacy rights and concerns and have established and implemented this Privacy Policy to inform users of our website, our customers, our investors, and our vendors, of what personal information we collect, and how we use, share, and protect such information. If you have any questions regarding this information or our privacy practices, please see the section entitled Contact Us at the end of this Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Use, then you should immediately discontinue use of the Resonant website (the “Site”) and/or our services without providing us any personally identifiable information.

  1. Effective Date and Changes to this Policy

This Privacy Policy is effective as of the date above and will remain in effect until a new policy supersedes it. We may choose to update this Privacy Policy at our discretion, so you should check this page periodically as the terms may change from time-to-time. The most recent version of the Policy will be reflected by the “Effective” date noted at the top of the page. In the event of a material change to this Privacy Policy, we will provide a conspicuous message either through the Site or via an email address we have on file, informing you of the change. Your affirmative consent or continued use of the Site and/or our services will constitute your acknowledgment of this Policy in its current version and your understanding of the terms of this Policy.

The types of personal information we collect and process about you can include:

  • Personal identifiers, such as your first and last name, email address, online identifier, Internet Protocol address, unique device identifiers, date of birth, marketing preferences, signature, correspondence;
  • Investor-specific information, such as records of meetings and publicly available information, including but not limited to SEC filings where applicable

  • Job applicant information, such as phone number, account username and password, address, social security number, passport number/visa information, and resume (e.g., prior work and education history); and

We collect such personal information directly from you when you visit the Site; submit feedback forms, order forms or job applications; or when you otherwise contact us.

You are not required to provide all personal information identified in this Privacy Policy to use our Site or to interact with us, but certain functionality will not be available if you do not provide certain personal information.

We may also collect some personal information about you, as a job applicant, from third parties you have listed as references in your application; or you, as an investor from third party investor relationship marketing firms.

  1. Cookies

A cookie is a small string of information that a website that you visit transfers to your browser for identification purposes. Cookies can be used to follow your activity while using a website or across websites, and that information helps companies understand your preferences and tendencies, as well as improve and personalize your website experience. Some cookies are necessary to operate a website, while others can be functional, analytical, or used for targeted advertising (as discussed in more detail below). More information about cookies and how they work is available at www.allaboutcookies.org

Cookies on our Site are generally divided into the following categories:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are required for the operation of our Site. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas. These cookies are session cookies that are erased when you close your browser.
  • Analytical/Performance Cookies: These allow us to recognize and count the number of users on the Site and understand how such users navigate through the Site (e.g., when and which pages are visited, in what order the pages are visited, how long a user may stay on a particular page, and where a user is located). This helps to improve how the Site works, for example, by ensuring that users can find what they are looking for easily. These cookies are session cookies which are erased when you close your browser. For example, we use Google Analytics for this process. For more information about Google Analytics, please visit google.com/policies/privacy/partners/ and www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html. You can opt-out of Google Analytics' collection and use of data generated by your use of the Site by going to http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.           

You can prevent the use of certain cookies by modifying your Internet browser settings, typically under the sections “Help” or “Internet Options.” If you disable or delete certain cookies in your Internet browser settings, you may still access the Site, however, you might not be able to access or use important functions or features of the Site, and you may, for example, be required to re-enter your log-in details.

Device Information

Similar to cookies, we may automatically collect certain information about the device you use to access the Site. For example, we may collect and analyze information such as IP addresses, geolocation information, unique device identifiers, browser types, browser language, operating system, the state or country from which you accessed the Site, and other information about your mobile phone or other device(s). In addition to analytical purposes, this information helps us diagnose problems with our server, administer the Site, and display the content according to your preferences.

Do Not Track

Resonant respects your privacy, but we do not alter the information we collect or change the Site upon receiving “do-not-track” signals, as the term appears in Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code §§ 22575(b)(5). For more information about DNT signals, visit http://allaboutdnt.com.

  1. Children’s Privacy

The Site is not intended for users under the age of 13. We do not knowingly or intentionally gather personal information about individuals who are under the age of 13. If you are aware of, or suspect that, someone under the age of 13 is using the Site without permission, please notify us immediately by contacting us as detailed below. If you have questions or concerns about the Internet and privacy for your child, we encourage you to check out the FTC Guidelines for protecting your child’s privacy online.

  • Manage your relationship with us;

  1. How We Share Your Personal Information

We share your personal information with the following categories of third-parties, where applicable:

  • Advisers and financial institutions, including, legal, tax, marketing firms, auditors, risk and compliance, notaries, and business continuity support services;
  • Service providers and suppliers, including, IT outsourcing, marketing, shipment processing, customer management, and applicant processors. In some instances, service providers will be directly responsible to you for their use of your personal information. They may be obliged by law to provide you with additional information regarding the personal information that they hold about you and how and why they process that information. Further information may be provided to you in a separate notice or may be obtained from such service providers directly, for example, via their websites;
  • Where permitted by applicable laws, with third-parties in connection with a corporate restructuring, sale, transfer or assignment of assets or business, merger, divestiture, or other changes to the company’s control or financial status (or any of our affiliates); and

  1. Your Privacy Choices

If you no longer want to receive our newsletter, emails or other marketing communications, you may unsubscribe at any time by following the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of our emails. Please note that you cannot unsubscribe from certain correspondence from us, including messages relating directly to your orders or application.

  1. How We Store and Safeguard Your Information

We maintain reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information from loss, misuse, alteration, or unintentional destruction. Your personal information is only accessible, on a need to know basis, by a limited number of employees who have special permissions. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your information as it is transmitted to us. To the extent permitted under applicable law, we assume no liability or responsibility for disclosure of your information due to errors in transmission, unauthorized access by third-parties, or other causes beyond our control.

  1. For Our European Customers (including the United Kingdom)

International data transfer.

We take steps to ensure that we handle your personal information subject to appropriate safeguards. As a US company, most of our operations are conducted in the United States and in order to provide the Site, personal information may be processed in the United States, where laws regarding processing of personal information may be less stringent than the laws in your country. We provide appropriate protections for cross-border transfers as required by applicable law for international data transfers. With respect to transfers originating from the European Economic Area, where applicable, the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission are implemented. Where required by such laws, you may request a copy of the suitable mechanisms we have in place by contacting us as detailed below.

Retention of your personal information.

For personal information that we collect and process for the purposes described above, we typically retain such personal information for no longer than the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, and as otherwise needed to address tax, corporate, compliance, employment, litigation, and other legal rights and obligations.

Lawful bases for handling your data.

Where required, we have several different legal grounds on which we collect and process your personal information for the purposes set out in the section above, How We Use Your Personal Information, including: (i) as may be necessary to perform a contract (such as when you choose to purchase Resonant products or invest in Resonant); (ii) as necessary to comply with a legal obligation (such as when we use personal information for recordkeeping to substantiate tax liability); (iii) consent (where you have provided consent as appropriate under applicable law, such as for direct marketing or certain cookies); and (iv) as necessary for our legitimate interests (such as when we act to maintain our business generally, including maintaining the safety and security of the Site).

Automated decision-making.

We do not use automated decision-making without human intervention, including profiling, in a way that produces legal effects concerning you or that otherwise significantly affects you.

Your Rights

To the extent required under applicable law, you have the right of:

  • Access. You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we are processing about you, which we will provide to you in electronic form.
  • Rectification. You have the right to require that any incomplete or inaccurate personal information that we process about you is amended.
  • Deletion. You have the right to request that we delete personal information that we process about you, unless, for example, we are required to retain such data in order to comply with a legal obligation or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
  • Restriction. You have the right to request that we restrict our processing of your personal information where: (i) you believe such data to be inaccurate; (ii) our processing is unlawful; or (iii) we no longer need to process such data for a particular purpose, but where we are not able to delete the data due to a legal or other obligation or because you do not want us to delete it.
  • Portability. You have the right to request that we transmit the personal information we hold with respect to you to another data controller.
  • Objection. Where the legal justification for our processing of your personal information is our legitimate interest, you have the right to object to such processing on grounds relating to your situation (e.g., direct marketing). We will abide by your request unless we have compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests and rights, or if we need to continue to process the data for the establishment, exercise or defense of a legal claim.
  • Withdrawing Consent. If you have consented to our processing of your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, free of charge. Please note that if you withdraw your consent, this will not affect the lawfulness of our use and processing of your information on the basis of your consent before the point in time when you withdraw your consent.

Some rights may be limited, and we may need to retain certain personal information, as required or permitted by applicable law. To inquire about or exercise the rights listed above, at any time, contact us at privacy@resonant.com with the subject line “Privacy-EU” so that we can get your email to the right team. We will respond to your request consistent with applicable law.

If you feel that your request or concern was not satisfactorily resolved by us, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

In an attempt to provide increased value to our visitors, we may choose various third-party websites (e.g., social media networks, e-commerce platforms) to link to within our Site. We have no control over these linked sites, each of which has separate privacy and data collection practices independent from us. As such, we have no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions and are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of any such websites.
