NOTICE: This Privacy Notice is effective as of September 20, 2024.
Compulink Management Center, Inc. operating as Laserfiche and its affiliates (“Laserfiche”, “we”, “us”, “our”) respect your privacy and understand that you care about how your personal information is collected and used. This Privacy Notice (“Notice”) describes the types of personal information that we process about you, how we use it, how we disclose it, your rights and choices, and how you can contact us about our privacy practices. This Notice applies to our processing of personal information in connection with the delivery of our website at https://www.laserfiche.com/ (the “Site”), and all products and services (including its content and functionality) offered by Laserfiche (collectively, our “Services”). We are committed to taking appropriate steps to help protect the privacy of visitors to our Site or users of our Services.
Some data protection laws make a distinction between organizations that process personal data for their own purposes (known as “controllers” or “businesses”) and organizations that process personal data on behalf of other organizations (known as “processors” or “service providers”). Laserfiche may act as either a controller/business or a processor/service provider in respect of your personal data, depending on the circumstances.
- Laserfiche is the controller with respect to information you provide through the Site and is located at the address in the section entitled “
- Contact Us
- ” below.
Sometimes Laserfiche operates as a processor or service provider on behalf of a customer (a separate legal entity), which is the data controller or business. For example, Laserfiche provides cloud services to its customers and may process personal data on each customer’s behalf to provide those services. This Notice does not describe the processing of such data. We invite you to visit the applicable customer’s privacy notice for information about their privacy practices. Any questions that you may have relating to such personal data and your rights under data protection law should be directed to the customer as the controller or business, not to Laserfiche.
- For personal data transferred from the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Switzerland, we will provide appropriate safeguards, such as through use of standard contractual clauses. For more information, please see our
- International Transfers
- heading below.
You may also have additional rights based upon your jurisdiction. For more information, please see the relevant jurisdiction headings at the end of this Notice or please click on the links for your jurisdiction listed below:

You can stop collection of precise location data through your browser or device settings or by uninstalling the app.

- Sensitive Personal Information. Some of the personal information we collect may be considered sensitive personal information (as described in the CCPA). For further details of the sensitive personal information we collect (if any) and how we obtain this information, please review the section entitled “Information We Collect” above. We collect, use, and disclose sensitive personal information only for the permissible business purposes for sensitive personal information under the CPRA or without the purpose of inferring characteristics about consumers. Further, we do not “sell” or “share” your sensitive personal information as those terms are defined by the CPRA.
- Data Retention. We retain each category of personal information, including sensitive personal information, for the length of time that is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, and as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and enforce our agreements.
Requests
- Right to Know, Correct, and Delete.
- Know. You have the right to know certain details about our data practices. In particular, you may request the following from us:
- The categories of personal information we have collected about you.
- The categories of sources from which the personal information was collected.
- The categories of personal information about you that we disclosed for a business purpose or sold or shared.
- The categories of third parties to whom the personal information was disclosed for a business purpose or sold or shared.

- The specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you.

These rights are subject to certain exceptions and also apply to sensitive personal information. To exercise any of these rights, California consumers should submit a request through our online form available here or call our toll free number at 800-985-8533. In the request, please specify which right you are seeking to exercise and the scope of the request. We will confirm receipt of your request within 10 business days. We may require specific information from you to help us verify your identity and process your request. If we are unable to verify your identity, we may deny your requests to know, correct, or delete.
- Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.
To the extent that using third party cookies and other tracking technologies to serve retargeted or interest-based advertising constitutes a “sale” or “share” of personal information under the CPRA, you may opt-out of such “sales” or “shares” by visiting our cookie consent platform below and opting out of any third party advertising cookies, by clicking on the “Your Privacy Choices” link at the bottom of the page, or by turning on a recognized opt-out preference signal in your browser or extension such as Global Privacy Control. When you submit an opt-out through any method, the opt-out will only apply to sales and shares from the specific browser from which you sent the signal because the connection between your browser identifier and other personal information we have about you is not known to us. If you want the opt-out to apply to information we have about you in our systems, such as your email address, please also submit a request through our form here (specifying the right you wish to exercise). - Shine The Light Customer Rights
Consumers in the State of California may request a list of categorized third parties and in some cases affiliates to whom we may have disclosed their personal information specifically for those third parties’ and/or affiliates’ own marketing purposes, as well as the type of personal information disclosed to those parties. If you are a California resident and would like to request this information, please submit a written request to the email or address provided in the section entitled “ Contact Us” above. Requests must include “California Privacy Rights Request” in the first line of the description and include your name, street address, city, state, and ZIP code. Please note that we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through the provided e-mail address or mail address.
Authorized Agent
You may also designate an authorized agent to submit such requests on your behalf. Requests must be submitted through the designated methods listed above. Except for opt-out requests, we will require written proof of the agent’s permission to do so and may verify your identity directly.
Right to Non-Discrimination
You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for the exercise of any of your rights.
Nevada law (NRS 603A.340) requires each business to establish a designated request address where Nevada consumers may submit requests directing the business not to sell certain kinds of personal information that the business has collected or will collect about the consumer. A sale under Nevada law is the exchange of personal information for monetary consideration by the business to a third party for the third party to license or sell the personal information to other third parties. If you are a Nevada consumer and wish to submit a request relating to our compliance with Nevada law, please submit a request through our online form available here.
