10. RADAR Launch Intelligence

WHERE FORKOFF PUBLISHES A RADAR READING OF A PUBLIC LAUNCH, IT READS ONLY INFORMATION THAT IS ALREADY PUBLIC: THE PUBLIC METRICS OF A PUBLIC POST (VIEWS, LIKES, REPLIES, QUOTES, REPOSTS, BOOKMARKS, AND POSTING TIME) AND PUBLICLY STATED PROFILE AND COMPANY INFORMATION. THE LAWFUL BASIS FOR THIS IS OUR LEGITIMATE INTEREST IN RESEARCH, ANALYSIS, AND REPORTING ON HOW PUBLIC REACH IS BUILT, BALANCED AGAINST THE LIMITED, ALREADY-PUBLIC NATURE OF THE INPUTS.

RADAR ALSO COLLECTS INFORMATION YOU VOLUNTARILY SUBMIT THROUGH ITS ENDPOINTS. THIS MAY INCLUDE:

• LAUNCH SUBMISSIONS: THE LAUNCH LINK OR HANDLE YOU SUBMIT FOR REVIEW, AND, IF YOU CHOOSE TO GIVE THEM, YOUR NAME AND EMAIL SO WE CAN FOLLOW UP.
• DISPUTES AND RIGHT OF REPLY: YOUR NAME, CONTACT DETAILS, THE LAUNCH OR READING IN QUESTION, AND THE MESSAGE AND ANY EVIDENCE YOU SEND US.
• ERASURE AND OBJECTION REQUESTS: ENOUGH INFORMATION TO LOCATE THE RELEVANT READING AND CONFIRM THAT YOU ARE THE SUBJECT, TOGETHER WITH YOUR CONTACT DETAILS.

WE PROCESS WHAT YOU SUBMIT ONLY TO HANDLE YOUR REQUEST, ON THE BASIS OF YOUR REQUEST AND, WHERE REQUIRED, YOUR CONSENT; WHERE THE LAW GIVES YOU A RIGHT (ACCESS, CORRECTION, ERASURE, OBJECTION), WE ACT ON IT AS A LEGAL OBLIGATION. WE DO NOT USE THIS INFORMATION FOR MARKETING AND WE DO NOT SELL IT. WE KEEP SUBMISSION, DISPUTE, AND RIGHTS-REQUEST RECORDS ONLY AS LONG AS WE NEED THEM TO HANDLE THE REQUEST AND KEEP A REASONABLE RECORD THAT WE DID, THEN WE DELETE OR DE-IDENTIFY THEM. PUBLISHED READINGS ARE POINT-IN-TIME AND RE-CHECKED OVER TIME.

IF YOU ARE THE SUBJECT OF A READING AND WISH TO REQUEST A CORRECTION OF A FACTUAL ERROR, ADD A RESPONSE, OR REQUEST ERASURE OR OBJECT TO PROCESSING, CONTACT US AT CREW@FORKOFF.XYZ. WE ACKNOWLEDGE REQUESTS, REVIEW THEM IN GOOD FAITH, CORRECT ANY FACTUAL ERROR, CONSIDER A RESPONSE FOR PUBLICATION ALONGSIDE THE READING, AND REMOVE OR DE-IDENTIFY INFORMATION WHERE WE ARE NOT REQUIRED TO RETAIN IT. THIS PATH IS THE SAME FOR EVERYONE, WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE A FORKOFF CLIENT.
