Privacy Policy
Introduction
We take your data privacy serious. It is our highest priority to offer a privacy-first solution, both self-hosted and in our managed cloud. We take on considerable additional effort to collect as little data as neccessary and handle it safely and securely.
This Privacy Policy explains how and why our organization collects personal data and how it is used. If you have any questions after reading this Privacy Policy, feel free to contact us at privacy@lemotify.com
Definitions
To avoid confusion, let’s define who we collect data from:
- Researcher: the person who uses the Cloud to create and distribute Lemotify forms and surveys or manage submissions from other forms
- Website visitors: People who visit our marketing landing page
We are data processor, you are data controller
With our Cloud we are a provider of this Service. We are not the owner of the collected personal data from survey respondents. The Researcher (the person who sends out a form i.e. you) is responsible for the data they collect and thus data controller of respondent data.
Data do we collect
This is the information we collect from Website visitors and Researchers as long as you are using our Service:
- Electronical identification data: including anonymized IP address, device & browser data;
- Anonymized information about your use of our website: including how you end up on our website, what actions you perform and the pages you visited.
- Registration information: When you register for an account, we collect your name, username, hashed password and email address.
- Billing information: If you pay for Lemotify, we will ask for your billing details including name, address and financial information depending on your payment method (stored by our payment service provider Stripe)
- Error logs: We collect error logs to help us diagnose and fix issues with our service.
How we use your data
Lemotify does not sell personal data to third parties. Generally, we only collect your data with your consent in order to:
- Provide and improve our Service.

We will retain and use your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.
We will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is generally retained for a shorter period, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.
Data Subprocessors
We only share your information with our Service providers who help us operate our business, in which case those third parties are also required to comply with the GDPR framework.

Data retention

If you are a Respondent, you will need to ask the Researcher how long your responses will be stored in Lemotify.
All form data which has been deleted by the form Researcher is permanently deleted from our back-ups within 90 days.
