1. Introduction

Accessi LLC (“Accessi”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States. We provide digital accessibility services, including accessibility auditing, usability testing with assistive technology users, accessibility training, and accessibility consulting support.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, transfer, retain, and protect personal information, and describes the rights and choices available to individuals whose personal information we process. It applies to our website located at https://accessi.biz/ (the “Website”), to our services (the “Services”), and to our business communications with prospective clients, clients, vendors, testers, and other individuals who interact with us.

We are committed to handling personal information lawfully, fairly, and transparently. Because our clients and Website visitors are located in the United States and in other countries, this Privacy Policy is written to address both United States privacy laws and the data protection laws of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Canada. Where a specific law grants you rights that exceed what is described in this Privacy Policy, that law governs to the extent of the difference.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree with it, please do not use the Website or the Services.

2. Who We Are and How to Contact Us

For the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) (“GDPR”) and the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation (“UK GDPR”), Accessi LLC is the controller of the personal information described in this Privacy Policy, except where this Privacy Policy expressly states that we act as a processor on behalf of a client.

You may contact us regarding this Privacy Policy or any privacy matter using the following details:

Company Name: Accessi LLC

Company Address: 30 N Gould St, Sheridan, WY 82801, United States

Email: lazar@accessi.biz

Website: https://accessi.biz/

We do not currently maintain an establishment within the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom. Where we are required to appoint a representative under Article 27 of the GDPR or Article 27 of the UK GDPR, we will publish the representative’s contact details in this Privacy Policy. Until such details are published, individuals in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom may contact us directly using the email address above, and we will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law.

3. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information we process in the following contexts:

This Privacy Policy does not apply to:

4. Definitions

The following terms are used throughout this Privacy Policy:

5. Our Role: Controller and Processor

Our role with respect to personal information depends on the context in which we process it.

5.1 Where We Act as a Controller

We act as a controller when we determine the purposes and means of processing. This includes personal information collected through the Website, personal information exchanged during sales and marketing activities, contact details of client personnel used for engagement administration and communication, billing and payment records, training registration and attendance records, and personal information relating to our own contractors and vendors.

5.2 Where We Act as a Processor

We act as a processor when we process personal information contained within Client Materials or accessible within a client environment, on behalf of and under the instructions of the client. This most commonly occurs when we are granted access to a client website, application, staging environment, content management system, or administrative interface in order to perform an accessibility audit, remediation review, or quality assurance testing, and that environment contains personal information relating to the client’s own users, customers, or employees.

In these circumstances, the client is the controller and remains responsible for the lawfulness of the processing, for providing any required notices to affected individuals, and for obtaining any required consents. We process such personal information only to the extent necessary to deliver the Services and in accordance with the applicable engagement agreement and, where applicable, a Data Processing Addendum.

We instruct clients to provide access to non-production, anonymized, or test data wherever technically feasible, and to avoid exposing live personal information to us unless it is strictly necessary for the accessibility assessment. We do not require access to live personal information in order to perform accessibility testing, and we will not knowingly extract, copy, export, or retain personal information from a client environment except where such information is captured incidentally within screenshots, recordings, or issue documentation for the sole purpose of illustrating an accessibility defect.

5.3 Joint Responsibility

Where we and a client jointly determine the purposes and means of a specific processing activity, the allocation of responsibilities will be set out in the applicable engagement agreement or Data Processing Addendum. Absent such an agreement, each party is independently responsible for its own compliance obligations.

6. Personal Information We Collect

6.1 Information You Provide Directly

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us, including:

6.2 Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Website, certain information is collected automatically by our hosting infrastructure and by cookies and similar technologies:

6.3 Information from Third Parties

We may receive personal information about you from sources other than you, including:

6.4 Client Environments and Client End-User Data

In the course of performing an accessibility audit, remediation review, or quality assurance testing, we may be granted access to a client environment that contains personal information relating to the client’s users, customers, employees, or other individuals. This may include names, contact details, account information, order or transaction records, support tickets, uploaded content, or any other data present in the environment to which we are given access.

We do not seek out such information, and we access it only to the extent that it is incidentally visible while assessing the accessibility of the relevant interface. We process such information solely as a processor on behalf of the client, as described in Section 5.2.

6.5 Usability Testing Recordings and Tester Information

Our usability testing service involves an accessibility tester who is a native user of assistive technology navigating a client digital property while their interaction is recorded. These recordings typically consist of a screen capture accompanied by an audio narration in which the tester describes what they encounter, and in some engagements may include webcam video of the tester.

A tester’s voice and, where webcam video is used, image constitute personal information relating to the tester. Testers are informed in advance that sessions are recorded, are informed of the purposes for which recordings will be used, and provide their agreement prior to recording. Testers may withdraw their agreement to future recordings at any time, although withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal, and does not require us to withdraw a recording already delivered to a client under a licence.

Recordings are delivered to the client through a secure link. We do not publish, broadcast, or use a recording for marketing, case study, or promotional purposes without the prior written consent of both the client and the tester appearing in the recording.

Where a client requests that its own users, employees, or customers participate as test participants rather than our testers, the client is responsible for identifying and recruiting those participants, for providing them with any required privacy notice, and for obtaining any required consent to recording. We will act as a processor with respect to those participants’ personal information.

6.6 Special Category and Sensitive Personal Information

Because of the nature of our Services, we may come into contact with information relating to disability, which constitutes data concerning health under the GDPR and the UK GDPR and sensitive personal information under certain United States state privacy laws. This may occur in the following ways:

We do not solicit disability information beyond what is necessary for the purpose for which it is provided, and we do not use disability information to infer characteristics about an individual, to build profiles, or for advertising or marketing purposes.

Where we process special category data as a controller under the GDPR or the UK GDPR, we rely on Article 9(2)(a) (explicit consent) or Article 9(2)(f) (establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims), as applicable to the circumstances.

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”), we use and disclose sensitive personal information only for the purposes permitted by Section 7027(m) of the CCPA regulations, which do not require us to offer a right to limit its use. We do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about a consumer.

6.7 Information We Do Not Collect

We do not intentionally collect the following categories of information:

If you provide information of a type we do not require, we will delete it within a reasonable period unless we are required to retain it by law.

7. Categories of Personal Information Collected and Disclosed

The following table summarizes the categories of personal information we have collected in the preceding twelve months, using the category descriptions set out in the CCPA. It is provided to satisfy the notice at collection requirement under California law and is equally informative for individuals in other jurisdictions.

Category Examples Disclosed To
Identifiers Name, business email address, business telephone number, business postal address, IP address, cookie and session identifiers Hosting, email, scheduling, CRM, and analytics providers; professional advisors
Customer records information Billing name, billing address, invoice and payment records, tax or registration identifiers Payment processor, banking provider, accounting and tax advisors
Commercial information Services enquired about or purchased, proposals, statements of work, engagement history, training registrations CRM, document storage, and accounting providers

Professional or employment-related information Job title, employer, role or function, professional history and certifications where submitted CRM and document storage providers
Sensitive personal information Disability or health-related information voluntarily disclosed in the contexts described in Section 6.6 Not disclosed except to the commissioning client where inherent in a deliverable, and to secure storage providers

We have not sold or shared personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising in the preceding twelve months, and we do not do so.

8. How We Use Personal Information

We use personal information for the following purposes:

We do not use personal information for purposes that are incompatible with the purposes for which it was collected. If we intend to use personal information for a new and incompatible purpose, we will provide notice and, where required, obtain your consent.

9. Legal Bases for Processing Under the GDPR and UK GDPR

Where the GDPR or the UK GDPR applies, we process personal information on one or more of the following legal bases:

Where we act as a processor on behalf of a client, the client is responsible for identifying and documenting the legal basis for the processing.

10. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Website uses cookies and similar technologies, which may include local storage, pixels, and software development kits. These technologies fall into the following categories:

Where required by the GDPR, the UK GDPR, the ePrivacy Directive as implemented in your jurisdiction, or comparable law, we obtain your consent before placing any cookie that is not strictly necessary, and we provide a means to withdraw that consent at any time. Where United States state privacy law applies, we honour opt-out preference signals as described in Section 26.

Full details of the categories of cookies used, their purposes, and how to manage your preferences are set out in our Cookie Policy, which forms part of this Privacy Policy.

11. How We Disclose Personal Information

We disclose personal information only as described below. We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their own independent marketing purposes.

12. Sub-processors and Service Providers

We maintain a record of the third parties that process personal information on our behalf, including the nature of the processing and the locations in which processing occurs.

Where we act as a processor for a client, we will not engage a sub-processor without the client’s general or specific written authorization. Where general authorization is given, we will provide notice of any intended addition or replacement of a sub-processor, giving the client a reasonable opportunity to object. Sub-processors are bound by written terms imposing data protection obligations no less protective than those to which we are subject.

A current list of sub-processors is available to clients on written request to lazar@accessi.biz.

13. No Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell personal information, and we have not sold personal information in the preceding twelve months, as “sell” is defined under the CCPA and comparable United States state privacy laws.

We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising, and we have not done so in the preceding twelve months.

We do not sell or share the personal information of individuals we know to be under sixteen years of age.

14. International Data Transfers

We are established in the United States, and personal information we process is stored on and accessed from servers located in the United States. In addition, members of our team, including testers, trainers, consultants, and contractors, may be located outside the United States and outside the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, including in countries that have not been the subject of an adequacy decision by the European Commission or the United Kingdom government.

Where we transfer personal information from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland to a country that does not benefit from an adequacy decision, we implement an appropriate transfer mechanism, which is ordinarily the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, supplemented by the United Kingdom International Data Transfer Addendum where the transfer is from the United Kingdom. Where appropriate, we carry out a transfer impact assessment and apply supplementary technical, organizational, and contractual measures.

You may request a copy of the relevant transfer safeguards by contacting us at lazar@accessi.biz. We may redact commercially confidential terms from any copy we provide.

Personal information transferred internationally may become subject to the laws of the destination country, including laws permitting access by public authorities. We assess the risk of such access and apply mitigating measures where we consider it necessary and proportionate.

15. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy legal, accounting, tax, or reporting requirements, and to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. The criteria we use to determine retention periods include the nature and sensitivity of the information, the purpose of the processing, the duration of the relationship, and any applicable limitation period.

Our general retention practices are as follows:

Category of Information Retention Period
Website enquiry and contact form submissions that do not result in an engagement Up to twenty-four months from the last communication, unless you request earlier deletion
Client engagement records, correspondence, and deliverables For the duration of the engagement and for six years following its conclusion, in line with applicable limitation periods
Usability testing recordings and associated raw testing materials Twelve months from delivery, after which they are deleted from our systems unless the client has requested extended retention in writing
Training registration and attendance records, and certificate records Three years from the date of the training session
Invoices, payment records, and accounting documentation Seven years, or such longer period as required by applicable tax and accounting law
Marketing contact records and consent records Until you withdraw consent or object, and thereafter a suppression record retained indefinitely to honour your opt-out
Website server logs and security logs Up to twelve months
Privacy rights request records Twenty-four months from the date of the request, as required to demonstrate compliance
Personal information within client environments processed as a processor Deleted or returned on conclusion of the engagement in accordance with the client’s instructions, subject to any legal retention obligation

Where personal information is retained beyond the periods above because it is subject to a legal hold, a pending dispute, or a regulatory requirement, we restrict processing to what is necessary for that purpose. Where continued retention is no longer necessary, we securely delete the information or irreversibly de-identify it.

16. Data Security

We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, alteration, or damage. These measures include:

Where a client grants us access to its systems, the client is responsible for issuing credentials scoped to the minimum access necessary, for monitoring the use of those credentials, and for revoking them promptly on conclusion of the engagement. We will request that credentials be revoked at the end of an engagement, but we cannot revoke access issued by a client.

No method of transmission over the internet and no method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we take reasonable steps to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security, and any transmission of information to us is at your own risk. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any credentials you use to communicate with us or to access materials we provide.

17. Data Breach Notification

We maintain procedures for identifying, escalating, investigating, containing, and remediating suspected personal data breaches.

Where we act as a controller and a personal data breach is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals, we will notify the competent supervisory authority without undue delay and, where feasible, within seventy-two hours of becoming aware of the breach. Where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to those rights and freedoms, we will also notify the affected individuals without undue delay.

Where we act as a processor, we will notify the relevant client without undue delay after becoming aware of a personal data breach affecting personal information processed on that client’s behalf, and will provide the information reasonably required for the client to meet its own notification obligations.

We will also comply with applicable breach notification requirements under United States federal and state law, and under Canadian law, where they apply.

18. Your Rights Under the GDPR and UK GDPR

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have the following rights in relation to personal information for which we are the controller:

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at lazar@accessi.biz. We will respond without undue delay and in any event within one month of receipt of your request. That period may be extended by up to two further months where necessary, taking into account the complexity and number of requests, in which case we will inform you of the extension and the reasons for it.

We may request information reasonably necessary to verify your identity before acting on a request. We will not charge a fee for responding to a request unless the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in which case we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act, and will explain our reasons.

Where a request relates to personal information we process as a processor on behalf of a client, we will refer the request to the relevant client without undue delay and will assist that client in responding, as required under Article 28 of the GDPR.

19. Your Rights Under California Law

If you are a California resident, the CCPA provides you with the following rights in relation to personal information for which we are the business.

To submit a request, contact us at lazar@accessi.biz with the subject line “California Privacy Request”. We will acknowledge receipt within ten business days and respond within forty-five days, which may be extended by a further forty-five days where reasonably necessary, in which case we will notify you of the extension.

We will verify your identity before responding to a request to know or delete, using information reasonably available to us, which may include matching the information you provide against information already held in our records. For requests concerning specific pieces of personal information, we apply a higher standard of verification.

An authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf. We will require the agent to provide written proof of authorization, and we may require you to verify your own identity directly with us or to confirm that you have granted the agent permission to submit the request.

California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits California residents to request information about disclosures of personal information to third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes. We do not make such disclosures.

20. Your Rights Under Other United States State Privacy Laws

A number of United States states have enacted comprehensive consumer privacy laws, including Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana, Delaware, Iowa, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Tennessee, Minnesota, Maryland, Indiana, Kentucky, and Rhode Island. Where such a law applies to you, you generally have the right to:

To exercise these rights, contact us at lazar@accessi.biz. We will respond within forty-five days, which may be extended by a further forty-five days where reasonably necessary.

If we decline to act on your request, you may appeal that decision by replying to our response with the subject line “Privacy Appeal” and stating the basis for your appeal. We will respond to an appeal within sixty days, and if the appeal is denied we will provide you with a method to contact your state attorney general to submit a complaint.

Nevada residents may submit a request that we not sell certain personal information. We do not sell personal information as defined under Nevada law.

21. Your Rights Under Canadian Law

If you are located in Canada, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (“PIPEDA”) and applicable provincial privacy legislation may apply to our processing of your personal information.

Under PIPEDA, you have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information, and to withdraw consent to processing, subject to legal and contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. We collect, use, and disclose personal information only for purposes that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances.

We may transfer personal information to service providers located outside Canada, including in the United States. While personal information is in the custody of a service provider in another country, it may be subject to the laws of that country, including lawful access by public authorities. We use contractual and other means to provide a comparable level of protection while the information is being processed by a service provider.

To exercise your rights under PIPEDA, contact us at lazar@accessi.biz. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

Under Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation, we send commercial electronic messages only where we have express or implied consent, and every such message identifies us and provides an unsubscribe mechanism that takes effect within ten business days.

22. Marketing Communications and Opt-Out

Where we send marketing communications, we do so only where you have consented or where we are otherwise permitted to do so under applicable law. Every marketing email we send includes an unsubscribe link, and we act on unsubscribe requests promptly.

You may also opt out at any time by emailing lazar@accessi.biz with the subject line “Unsubscribe”.

Opting out of marketing communications does not affect service and transactional communications relating to an active engagement, including scheduling confirmations, project correspondence, invoices, security notices, and notices of changes to our terms or policies. These communications are necessary for the performance of our contract with you and cannot be opted out of while the engagement remains active.

Where you opt out, we retain a minimal suppression record consisting of your email address and the fact of your opt-out, so that we can honour your preference. This record is retained indefinitely for that purpose and is not used for any other purpose.

23. Automated Decision-Making and Profiling

We do not carry out automated decision-making that produces legal effects concerning you or that similarly significantly affects you, and we do not carry out profiling for the purpose of such decision-making.

Automated tooling is used in the delivery of accessibility audits to scan digital properties for technical accessibility defects. Such tooling assesses code and interface behaviour, not individuals, and does not evaluate personal characteristics or make decisions about individuals.

24. Children’s Privacy

The Website and the Services are directed to businesses and to professionals acting in a business capacity. They are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of sixteen, or under such higher age as may apply in your jurisdiction.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us at lazar@accessi.biz. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child without appropriate consent, we will delete that information promptly.

Where a client engages us to assess a digital property directed to children, the client remains the controller of any personal information relating to children within that environment and is responsible for compliance with applicable children’s privacy law, including the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act where relevant.

25. Third-Party Websites and Services

The Website may contain links to third-party websites, resources, and services that we do not own or control, including scheduling providers, professional networks, industry resources, and client digital properties. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third parties.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of any third-party website or service. We encourage you to review the privacy notice of any third party before providing personal information to it.

Where a third-party service is embedded in the Website, including a scheduling tool or video player, that service may set cookies or collect technical information when the embedded content loads. Where such collection is not strictly necessary, it is subject to your consent as described in Section 10 and in our Cookie Policy.

26. Do Not Track Signals and Opt-Out Preference Signals

Some browsers transmit a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no common industry standard for interpreting or responding to such signals, and we do not currently respond to them.

Where required by United States state privacy law, we recognize and honour opt-out preference signals transmitted by a browser or extension, including the Global Privacy Control, as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and of targeted advertising. As stated in Section 13, we do not engage in these activities, but we will process such a signal as a valid opt-out request in any event.

Because an opt-out preference signal is transmitted at the browser and device level, it applies only to the browser and device from which it is sent.

27. Client Responsibilities

Where we deliver Services to a client, the client is responsible for the following:

Where required, we will enter into a Data Processing Addendum with a client governing the processing of personal information carried out on that client’s behalf. In the event of a conflict between this Privacy Policy and an executed Data Processing Addendum in respect of processing carried out as a processor, the Data Processing Addendum prevails.

28. Accessible Formats of This Policy

We are committed to making this Privacy Policy available in a format you can use. If you require this Privacy Policy in an alternative accessible format, including plain text, large print, or a structured document optimized for a specific assistive technology, contact us at lazar@accessi.biz and we will provide it at no cost.

If you encounter an accessibility barrier that prevents you from reading this Privacy Policy or from exercising a privacy right, contact us and we will provide an alternative means of exercising that right.

29. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, our Services, the technologies we use, or applicable law.

When we make changes, we will revise the Effective Date at the top of this Privacy Policy and publish the updated version at https://accessi.biz/. Where a change is material, we will provide additional notice by email to clients with an active engagement and to individuals who have provided us with an email address for that purpose, or by a prominent notice on the Website, before the change takes effect.

Where a change requires your consent under applicable law, we will obtain that consent before applying the change to personal information already collected. Your continued use of the Website or the Services after an updated Privacy Policy takes effect constitutes your acknowledgement of the updated Privacy Policy, except where consent is required.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Prior versions are available on request to lazar@accessi.biz.

30. Contact and Complaints
