About us

MRP is a technology driven sales and marketing solutions company that provides clients with the means to organize target account intelligence and coordinate relevant multichannel account-based marketing programs. MRP operates its websites www.mrpfd.com and also ad hoc microsites (e.g. www.techhubly.com) and landing pages on behalf of clients (collectively, the MRP Sites).

MRP also uses an internal account-based marketing platform called MRP Prelytix ® (Prelytix ®) aimed at helping to predict in real-time, what products and services businesses are likely interested in. MRP also provides advertising services (MRP Ad Services) to clients, helping them to display relevant online advertising to end users (End Users) who interact with third party websites (Third Party Sites). In addition, MRP also offers clients a suite of marketing related solutions including content syndication, direct mail, and inside sales.

What Information Does MRP collect and How is It Collected?

The types of information that we may collect (directly from you or from third-party sources) and our privacy practices depend on the nature of the relationship you have with MRP and the requirements of applicable law. This section describes how we collect and use that information. This includes an overview of the type of information that we collect directly and automatically, the types of information that we receive from other sources and why we collect that information.

Information That You Provide to Us.

Services

We will collect certain information from when you engage with us in connection with a business relationship and when you purchase a service  from us or provide a service to us. The information may include company specific information and business contact details such as name, job title, business mailing address, email address and or telephone number etc. This information is collected by MRP for business relationship purposes and also to perform the service contract we have in place.

MRP Sites

Certain parts of the MRP Sites may ask you to provide Personal Information voluntarily. For example, we collect Personal Information when you express an interest in obtaining additional information about MRP or our services, subscribe to marketing emails, or otherwise contact us. This Personal Information is collected by MRP to provide you with the best and most useful content and services, and to offer you opportunities to obtain other products and services from us and our Partners.

The Personal Information we collect may include business contact information (e.g. your name, mailing address, telephone number or email address) and contact preferences. It may also include professional information (e.g. your job title, department or job role) as well as the nature of your request or communication. We also collect information that you choose to provide to us when you complete ‘free text’ boxes on our forms.

During marketing services

You may provide us with information (which may include Personal Information) during a marketing call or in response to an email or direct mail campaign e.g. you may provide us information regarding alternative contacts methods or updating details. The Personal Information we collect during the marketing services may include business contact information (e.g. your name, mailing address, telephone number or email address) and contact preferences. We may also collect professional information (e.g. your job title, department or job role).

Information That We or Third Parties collect automatically

MRP Sites

When using the MRP Sites, we or our Partners may automatically collect certain information from your device. In some countries including countries in the EU, this information may be considered Personal Information under data protection laws. The information we collect automatically may include your IP address, your operating system, your browser ID, your browsing activity, your URL and other information about your system, connection and how you interact with MRP Sites. We may collect this information using cookies, pixels and/or web beacons (Technologies), as explained further in our Cookie Policy.

MRP Ad Services

When End Users visit Third Party Sites, we may (and our Partners or vendors may) use and deploy Technologies to automatically collect certain information about the End Users and their devices.  Some of this information (including, for example, an IP address and unique identifiers stored in a cookie) may identify a computer or device and may in certain circumstances be considered “Personal Information”.  However, the MRP Ad Services are designed to process information in such a manner that the information cannot be directly attributed to a specific, identifiable individual without the use of additional information (such as your name, address, or email address). We may collect this information by assigning a random unique identifier to your device the first time you interact with an advertisement on a Third-Party Site. This unique identifier may then associate you with information that we may collect about you. This information we may collect includes information about your browser and device information, information about your online behaviour and information about ads served, viewed or clicked on.

Sales Calls

We may utilise notetaker tools on sales calls with potential clients. Such tools will record both audio and video footage from the conversation and generate call summaries.

Chatbots

We may utilise chatbots on MRP Sites to help establish how MRP may be able to assist visitors. Such tools will analyze text from the conversation in order to give direction to visitors.

Information we receive from other Sources

We may also combine, merge, and/or enhance the information we collect about you with information collected from third parties such as other web-based and mobile networks, exchanges and websites (“Partners “) or our clients.

This information may include hashed identifiers derived from other information such as email addresses, mobile device IDs, demographic or interest data (like your industry, employer, company size, job title or department) and content viewed or actions taken on a Third-Party Site to help make the ads served to an End User more relevant while limiting exposure to less relevant ads.

As part of our marketing services, we may receive business contact lists from our clients to use as part of a marketing campaign. This data is only used for the client providing the information and in accordance with the client’s instructions. From time to time, we may also obtain information from the reception of a business which may include business contact information (e.g. your name, mailing address, telephone number or email address) and professional information (e.g. your job title, department or job role).

Data contained in the MRP database including B2B contact data, originates from a variety of sources including data suppliers, campaigns and MRP’s own research.

What is the Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Information?

MRP relies on several different legal grounds for processing Personal information including performance of a contract, consent and legitimate interest depending on the circumstances surrounding the processing.

MRP may process Personal Information pursuant to specific purposes which are in our interests and that enable us to enhance the services we provide. For example, we may process Personal Information pursuant to legitimate business purposes to respond to your inquiries and to fulfil your requests, to send you relevant marketing information and offers or to complete transactions/engage with you in connection with a potential business transaction.

If you are an individual from the EEA, our legal basis for collecting and using Personal Information will depend on the Personal Information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. However, we normally rely on our legitimate interests to collect Personal Information from you, except where such interests are overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your Personal Information, please contact us using the contact details provided under the ‘contact us’ section below.

What is the purpose for using your Information?

We may use and process your information based on the legal grounds and for the legitimate business purposes outlined in this Policy:

For providing and improving our services. MRP may use information it acquires to operate, improve, and personalize its business and services. This use includes deriving insights, trends, use, and analytics, whether actual or predicted, from the data collected. MRP may also work with third parties to receive data or insights and combine that information with the data and insights provided by MRP. When providing our services, MRP often uses the data it collects with other data in our possession or customer-provided data as part of our services. For example, MRP may use information to provide clients with support or improve accuracy and develop new features based on historical use and trends.

Advertising (including ‘interest based’ advertising) and marketing for itself and customers. MRP may use the information it collects for advertising and marketing, such as creating data segments/audiences, analyzing and predicting business buying behavior or business interests and delivering interest-based advertising and content to you, such as ads, widgets, or website content tailored to you on behalf of advertisers, across websites, devices, and over time.  MRP may also use the information for performing email, mail and/or telemarketing services for its clients.

As required by applicable law, legal process, or regulation. MRP may use all data it collects or receives as required under law, legal or financial processes like audits or regulations.

For running its business. MRP may use the information it collects for billing, account management, invoicing, generating summaries from sales calls, investigating security and privacy incidents as well as other legitimate business interests.

For ID synching. We or our third-party providers may also use information to undertake ‘ID synching’ or ‘user matching’ which means that we may share the information provided by you with third parties, who use this information to recognise you across different channels and platforms over time for advertising, analytics, attribution and reporting purposes.
