Information We Collect through Our Services
We also receive information from you that you input and provide when you use our Services (“Customer Data”). For example, any conversations you speak or type into the Services may be temporarily stored or recorded to facilitate the call and relay. We do not retain the audio or transcriptions of connected calls in the ordinary course of providing our Services to you. Once captions are delivered to your device, they are deleted from our servers. When you elect to store transcripts, they will be stored on your own device. However, your calls will be collected, and may be stored on a temporary or longer basis, in order for us to transcribe the communication or otherwise provide the Services to you. Additionally, Customer Data is collected and may be stored in the following instances:
- As a part of the Nagish Live service, we may record and store live conversations that you make available to the Services.
- As a part of the Nagish Voicemail service, voicemail transcripts will be stored until delivery and voicemail messages will be stored until they are pro-actively deleted by you.
Cookies and Other Information Collected by Automated Means
We, our service providers, and our business partners may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and activity occurring on or through the Services, including but not limited to, your computer or mobile device operating system type and version number, manufacturer and model, device identifier (such as the Google Advertising ID or Apple ID for Advertising), browser type, screen resolution, IP address, the website you visited before browsing to our website, general location information such as city, state or geographic area; information about your use of and actions on the Services, such as pages or screens you viewed, how long you spent on a page or screen, navigation paths between pages or screens, information about your activity on a page or screen, access times, and length of access; and other personal information. In addition, we may request access or permission to certain permissions from your mobile device, including your mobile device’s contacts, microphone, or other features. Our service providers and business partners may collect this type of information over time and across third-party websites and mobile applications.
We collect the following information about calls to facilitate reimbursement pursuant to the federal TRS program: call times, incoming telephone number and IP address at the time of call, outbound telephone number and IP address, total call minutes, the URL address through which the call is initiated.
On our webpages, this information is collected using cookies, browser web storage (also known as locally stored objects, or “LSOs”), web beacons, and similar technologies, and our emails may also contain web beacons.
A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. Browser web storage, or LSOs, are used for similar purposes as cookies. Browser web storage enables the storage of a larger amount of data than cookies. A “web beacon,” also known as a pixel tag or clear GIF, is typically used to demonstrate that a webpage was accessed or that certain content was viewed, typically to measure the success of our marketing campaigns or engagement with our emails and to compile statistics about usage of our websites.
Web browsers may offer users of our Services the ability to disable receiving certain types of cookies; however, if cookies are disabled, some features or functionality of our Services may not function correctly. Please see the section below entitled “Your Choices” for information about how to exercise choice regarding the use of browsing behavior for purposes of targeted advertising.
Information You Provide During the Job Application Process
We may also receive information about you if you submit a job application, inquire about opportunities with us, provide us your information at a recruiting event, or if we receive information about you from third parties in connection with our recruiting activities. Throughout this Privacy Policy, we will refer to this information as "Recruiting Data". Recruiting Data may include:
- name and contact information such as phone number, email address, and postal address;
- employment history such as prior employers and dates of employment;
- education history such as degrees earned and institutions attended;
- resume, CV, educational transcripts, and any information contained in or with such documentation;

- sensitive personal information that you provide voluntarily or which we request on a non-mandatory basis in order to comply with applicable law.
You are responsible for the Recruiting Data you provide or make available to us and all Recruiting Data you provide must be truthful, accurate, and not misleading in any way. You may not provide Recruiting Data that is obscene, defamatory, infringing, malicious, or that violates any law. To the extent you voluntarily provide any sensitive or special categories of information, as may be defined in applicable laws, you explicitly consent to our processing of such information as described in this Privacy Policy. Depending on your region or the region where an opportunity is located, we may be required to process certain sensitive personal information to comply with applicable local law. You are responsible for providing any notices and obtaining any consents necessary for us to collect and use personal information of your references as described in this Privacy Policy.
Customer Proprietary Network Information (“CPNI”)
We collect CPNI in connection with our provision of the Services. CPNI includes information that relates to the quantity, technical configuration, type, destination, location, and amount of use of a telecommunications service used by any customer of a TRS provider; and information regarding a customer's use of TRS contained in the documentation submitted by a TRS provider to the TRS Fund administrator in connection with a request for compensation for the provision of TRS.
We take all reasonable measures to discover and protect against attempts to gain unauthorized access to CPNI.
We may use, disclose, or permit access to CPNI for the purpose of providing or lawfully marketing service offerings among the categories of service (i.e., type of TRS) for which we are the default provider for the customer without customer approval. We also may use, disclose or permit access to CPNI derived from its provision of TRS without customer approval, for the provision of CPE or iTRS access technology, and call answering, voice or video mail or messaging, voice or video storage and retrieval services; for the provision of inside wiring installation, maintenance, and repair services; and to the extent necessary to accept and handle 911/E911 calls.
We may use, disclose, or permit access to CPNI upon request by the administrator of the TRS Fund or by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for the purpose of administration and oversight of the TRS Fund, including the investigation and prevention of fraud, abuse, and misuse of TRS and seeking repayment to the TRS Fund for non-compensable minutes.
We may use, disclose, or permit access to CPNI to protect our rights or property, or to protect users of the Services, other TRS providers, and the TRS Fund from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful use of such services. We may disclose CPNI in response to a legitimate law enforcement request.

How We Share Your Personal Information
We do not share your personal information with third parties without your consent, except in the following circumstances or as described in this Privacy Policy:
Other Users of the Services and the Public. We may provide information about you to other users of the Services and other participants in communications enabled by the Services, and we may provide functionality that enables you to disclose personal information to such persons.

Affiliates. We may share your personal information with our corporate parent, subsidiaries, and affiliates, for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy. In some cases, we may specifically ask for your consent to share your personal information with our affiliates, such as when required by law.
Service providers. We may share your personal information with third party companies and individuals that provide services on our behalf or help us operate the Services (such as customer support, hosting, analytics, email delivery, marketing, and database management services), consistent with this Privacy Policy and, if applicable, the FCC’s Customer Proprietary Network Information (“CPNI”) rules.

To Protect Rights, Property, and Others: We may disclose information about you when we believe in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of the Nagish, third parties, or the public at large. For example, if we have a good faith belief that there is an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury, we may disclose information related to the emergency without delay, or we may need to disclose your information in connection with enforcing our Terms of Service and/or other agreements.
With Your Consent: We may share and disclose information with your consent or at your direction. For example, we may share your information with third parties with which you authorize us to do so.
Published Support Requests: If you send us a request (for example, via a support email or one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish that request in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users of the Services and may remove your personal information from the request.
How Long We Keep Personal Information
We generally discard information about you when we no longer need the information for the purposes for which we collect and use it–which are described in the section above entitled “How We Use your Personal Information”–and we are not legally required to continue to keep it. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your information, the purposes for which we process your information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
Your Choices
In this section, we describe the rights and choices available to you.

If you are under 18, do not use or provide any information on this Website or through the Services. If we learn that we have collected or received personal information from a child under 18 without verification of parental consent, we will take appropriate steps to delete that individual’s personal information and restrict that individual from future access to the Services. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 18, please contact us at hello@nagish.com.

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. Under some Relevant Laws, you may only make a verifiable consumer request for access twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must (i) provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, and (ii) describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We will respond to a verifiable consumer request within the time periods permitted under Relevant Laws. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing, in accordance with Relevant Laws.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Relevant Laws may require us to verify your identity. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
