We use location information to present you reservable workspaces near you rather than anywhere in the world.

We may use the information we have collected from you to display advertisements to our advertisers’ target audiences.

Otherwise, we do not disclose your data to external or third parties unless required by applicable law.

To the extent we transfer data, the recipients are contractually obligated to keep the data confidential, to use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them, and to process the data with the standards set out in this Privacy Notice.
