Maintaining your privacy is really, really important to us. You entrust us with taking your phone calls and handling your mail items, and we take that responsibility seriously.
Version 1.0: This policy was last updated on 8th December 2015. We may updated the policy in the future and we will post the new version here on our website. We will never deviate from our overall philosophy of maintaining your privacy.
This policy explains how we collect, store and use personal data about you when you browse www.vizioz.com (the "Vizioz website"), use the Vizioz "members area" or otherwise provide your personal data to us.
By visiting, logging into, registering or using the Vizioz website, you agree that it's okay for us to collect, use and transfer your information (including your personal data) under the terms of this policy. If you're not happy with this or don't want to be bound by this policy any longer, please do not continue to use or enter your details on the Vizioz website, or use the members area.
When we say your "personal data," we mean any information that identifies any person that you provide to us. Your "personal data" may also be contained in information that we collect about you in connection with your use of the Vizioz website and/or Vizioz. When it comes to your personal data, we comply with our respective obligations under the Data Protection Act 1998 (the "Act")
Information you provide – Your personal data includes the information you provide when you sign up for an account or sign up to receive our emails, or when you answer questionnaires, surveys, enter competitions or provide information in your account profile, on the Vizioz website, or during a support enquiry about you and/or your organisation.
Examples of this personal data include your name, your email address, contact and/or employee names; and any correspondence when you contact us.
Information we collect - We collect information about your website usage, to improve our service and to understand trends. Some of this data may be "personal data", where it identifies a person. Here's the information that we collect and how we use it:
We monitor patterns of usage, such as login dates and volumes of data, so we can understand how people are using Vizioz to develop and improve our products.
We also monitor patterns of usage so that we can tailor any communications that you have asked us to send you. For example, we may tailor your newsletter with information about product features that you haven't tried yet, instead of features that you use frequently.
For security reasons and to aid in monitoring patterns of usage, we log your IP address when you use the website. This is your computer's individual identification number that is assigned to your computer when connected to the Internet.
We monitor traffic information when you visit our site or read our e-mails, including things like page visits, e-mail clicks, purchases, referring sites, and video viewings. We use this information to improve our website, promotions, and to understand customer purchasing behaviour.
How we use your personal data.
This section details how we use your personal data.
Providing Vizioz - We use your personal data to enable us to provide you with access to Vizioz and the Vizioz website. It will also enable us to contact you by email, fax, post, SMS, social media or telephone where necessary concerning Vizioz. Should you choose to use parts of Vizioz that involve providing your personal and/or Phone Message and Mail data to third parties, then your personal and/or Phone Message and Mail data will be shared in that way. We may use third parties to assist us in providing Vizioz from time to time, and in those cases may pass on your personal and/or Phone Message and Mail data to them. In such cases we will only share your data with third parties that we trust, and where there are assurances in place as to how they will protect the data.
Improving Vizioz - We will also use and analyse your personal data so that we can administer, support, improve and develop our business, customer service and the features of the Vizioz website and Vizioz generally. We may use third parties to assist us in doing these things from time to time, and in those cases may pass on your personal data. We will only share your data with third parties that we trust, and where there are assurances in place as to how they will protect the data.
Providing Insights - We monitor anonymous, aggregated information about accounts so that we can produce insights about small businesses. We may share these insights with customers, on our blog or other promotional material, use them internally to improve our product and communications, or share with other interested third parties. Just to be clear - we will never identify you or your business in such communications or white papers, and will never report data in such a way that your business could be identified.
Making Contact - We may use your personal data to contact you by email, fax, post, SMS, social media and/or telephone to notify you about important changes or developments to the Vizioz website or Vizioz, or to let you know about our other Vizioz and/or third party services, content, or product ranges which may be of interest to you. By using Vizioz or the Vizioz website, you are consenting to this use of your data. If you change your mind about being contacted in the future, that's no problem – just contact us using the details below. To stop receiving emails from Vizioz itself (for example, a reminder that your subscription is expiring), you should cancel your Vizioz account.
Cookies - We may further use, or permit selected third parties to use, your personal data to enable us to track and analyse Vizioz website traffic and visitor trends and improve your browsing experience. For further details, please see our Cookies Policy. By using the Vizioz website or Vizioz you are consenting to this use of your personal data. If you do not want us to use your personal data in this way, please see the Cookies Policy for more information.
You can also ask us for a copy of your personal data that we hold (see "Your Rights" below).
We don't store your credit card details.
You control sharing of personal data.
If we provided an option within your account to share your data with people that you trust, this will be configurable by you through the members area.
When you visit the Vizioz website or sign up to the Vizioz "members area", you authorise us to share your personal data with others in certain circumstances:
We will share your data as set out in this policy, for example in the section above called "How We Use Your Data".
We may disclose your data to any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries.
We may also pass aggregate information on the usage of the Vizioz website and Vizioz, where relevant, to maintain, improve and manage the Vizioz website and Vizioz, but this will not include your personal data.
We may also disclose your data in the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, in which case we may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets. We may also exchange other information with other companies and organisations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
We may share your data with partners who help us carry out our day-to-day provision of Vizioz, or who help us improve Vizioz. Examples of these functions include e-mail, providing marketing assistance and data analysis, handling credit card transactions, fulfilling orders and providing customer service. In these circumstances we will make sure that these partners have the right measures in place to protect your data.
The data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us, one of our group companies or for one of our suppliers. Such staff maybe engaged in, among other things, the processing of your payment details and the provision of support services. By submitting your data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
Finally, we reserve the right to cooperate with law enforcement officials in the investigation of alleged unlawful activities of Vizioz website users or relating to Vizioz users. We will have no legal liability for such disclosures of your information.
The Vizioz website and/or Vizioz may, from time-to-time, contain links to and from the websites or services of our partner networks, advertisers and affiliates. If you follow a link to any of these websites or services, please note that they have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any data to these websites.
We partner with secure sites.
Where we pass your data to third parties, we do so over a secure connection.
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of the Vizioz website or Vizioz itself, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to the Vizioz website, or through Vizioz itself; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your data, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
