When we research our market and find potential buyers: To make sure we are reaching the appropriate business audiences, we may from time to time purchase marketing lists and other databases providing contact details. These may contain your name, business email address and business phone number. However, we do not buy marketing lists which contain your private, outside-of-work contact details.

To improve your user experience and the overall quality of our Services: Knowing your basic personal details lets us personalise any communications we send to you. For example, we collect your role information to ensure we provide marketing which is relevant to your role in your business.

We go into more detail on how we use the information we collect in these circumstances, below.

2.1. RESPONDING TO CUSTOMER QUERIES


Your personal details will be processed to respond to queries and assist with the identification of users. For example, your contact information will be collected when you submit a call back form or use our customer chat features and may then be used as an identifier in future. Whenever you fill in a form on our website, we may store relevant identity data so that we can trace the history of your query and deal with it more efficiently.

It also includes information about the devices and methods you use to interact with Digicorp Services and content, including via a service portal.

We may combine behavioural information (such as your browsing activity) with your personal details, but we will not store any personal details related to fields left blank by you during your sign-up process. When the use of information which personally identifies you is not necessary to achieve the purposes set out in this section, we will only process behavioural information on an aggregate basis.

To improve your user experience and the overall quality of our Services:

Your activity such as the pages you visit or the items you view teaches us what you find important and most interesting to you on our Services so that we can tailor your experience around what matters to you most and display personalised content.

Device and platform identifiers let us know which device you are using to access our Services in order to customise and optimise them to your device and improve your overall user experience (for example, providing more relevant content and advertising on the device or browser you are using).

Storing data locally on your device allows us to improve things like website performance and loading of content even when you are offline.

Subject to the requirements of applicable law, to provide you with marketing communications, for example, more relevant content and offers, and latest news about products and events which we think will be of interest to you and your business:

For example, following a link to a tutorial from a marketing email, or following Digicorp on Facebook or Twitter.

2.4. FOR FULFILMENT PURPOSES


In order to support your business and perform our contract for the Services with you, we may need to collect personal data to arrange repairs, fulfil orders and perform services. We will need to arrange appointments to do so, and therefore need to get the contact details of someone at your business. Examples include:

  • when you log a call to arrange a repair or service;
  • when you fill in a form we send you about one of our products, including online versions;
  • provision of managed services information such as reporting, usage and utilisation;
  • when we detect issues with your software or hardware which we need to talk to you about;
  • when you arrange site visits or equipment collection.

When we have to perform technical operations on your IT infrastructure, we may have access to personal data held by your organisation. Where we use third parties for our fulfillment activities, we make sure to choose trusted partners who have the same values that we do.

Depending on your role, we may need to use your information to contact you regarding online service availability (for example, updates relating to periodical maintenance) or changes to those services.

2.5. TO FIND NEW CUSTOMERS


To offer our products and services to others who may be interested in them, we sometimes obtain your contact details from our partners in the industry, as well as professional bodies who provide this information to businesses. When we obtain contact details this way we ensure that your contact details are not part of any national opt-out service.

2.6. TO SEND OUT SURVEYS AND USE THE RESULTS TO IMPROVE OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES


Digicorp and its partners occasionally send our customers surveys and feedback forms. Where you provide your name and contact details, we may use these to respond to any feedback, provide you with information we think you’ll be interested to hear given your responses and add you to our marketing database (you can opt out of this during the survey, if you’re not interested).

Our partners may, where permitted, decide on how to use your information for their surveys. Where this is the case, Digicorp is not in control of the use of your personal information and you are no longer subject to this privacy notice. Please read the privacy policies of these partners for more information on their privacy practices or for information on how to unsubscribe.

3. LEGAL BASIS FOR USING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION


Digicorp will only process your personal information where we have a legal basis to do so.

The legal basis will depend on which of the above purposes for which we have collected and use your personal information. In almost every case the legal basis will be one of the following:

3.1 OUR LEGITIMATE INTERESTS


Digicorp’s legitimate interests include where it is necessary for Digicorp to understand our customers in sufficient detail, so we can create and publicise new products and services, and offer our customers a better experience. For example:

We perform analytics on this legal basis as they are necessary to provide you with a tailored experience and so that we can improve, maintain and manage our products and Services in a way which meets your expectations as a customer;

5. HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION


Your personal information is held on secure servers and is not processed for any purposes other than those set out in this Privacy Notice. The servers Digicorp uses to store this information are accessible to authorised staff only and Digicorp ensures that adequate security measures are in place.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or data storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of any account you might have with us has been compromised), please immediately notify us of the problem by contacting us at the contact details below.

We use vendors and service providers based around the world. Consequently, your personal information may be processed in countries outside of the country where you live, including if you live in Europe, and such countries may include some where you may have fewer legal rights in respect of your personal information than you do under local law. If we transfer personal information outside of the European Economic Area to a country that provides a lower standard of legal protection for your personal information, we will ensure that your privacy rights are protected by appropriate safeguards, in particular through the use of the EU’s standard contractual clauses. Please contact us if you would like more information about these safeguards.

6. MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS


Digicorp may use your personal information for marketing purposes and to inform you about other products and services, which Digicorp thinks might be of interest for you and your business. You can specify whether you wish to receive such information by ticking the appropriate box in our forms, or by telling us your preference where we interact in person.

You will be able to opt out from receiving such information at any time from the relevant preference centre or by unsubscribing using a link/mechanism provided in all applicable communications. If you unsubscribe from marketing, please note we may still contact you with service messages from time to time (for example, to confirm an order you have made or to confirm delivery details).

7. HOW TO EXERCISE YOUR RIGHTS


In certain jurisdictions you have the right to access, correct, update, restrict, receive a machine-readable copy of your personal information or delete your data as well as any other right applicable in your jurisdiction. You can request to exercise these rights by clicking on the link provided in our communication emails, or accessing the relevant section of the Digicorp website or by contacting us using the contact details set out at the end of this Notice.

We will delete your personal information once it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was originally collected.

You also have the right to object to your personal information being used for certain purposes, including to send you marketing. See ‘Marketing Communications’ above, for more details of how to opt-out of marketing.

We will comply with any requests to exercise your rights in accordance with applicable law. Please be aware, however, that there are a number of limitations to these rights, and there may be circumstances where we are not able to comply with your request.

Digicorp will keep your personal information for as long as we need it for the purposes set out in section 2 of this Privacy Notice and in accordance with any retention periods required by applicable laws and during the relevant statutes of limitations. This term should typically not exceed 6 years in most jurisdictions. For example, where you have made a purchase with us, we will keep a record of your purchase for the period necessary for invoicing, tax and warranty purposes. We may also keep a record of correspondence with you (for example if you have made a complaint about a product or our Services) for as long as is necessary to protect us from a legal claim. Where we no longer have a need to keep your personal information, we will delete it. Please note that where you unsubscribe from our marketing communications, we will keep a record of your communication information to ensure we do not market to you in future.

Digicorp will not delete your personal information where it refers to an active relationship or a product or service explicitly requested by you (for example, a recent purchase made at a Digicorp Services).
