What data do we collect?
The information that we gather falls broadly into two types:
- Information that relates directly to you (e.g. your name and contact details)
- Information that does not directly identify you (e.g. your IP address through the placement of cookies)
How do we collect your data?
We collect data when you directly provide us with it, such as when you:
- Complete any online form on our websites (such as to request pricing information or sign up for our newsletter)
- Submit your information on any of our publications
- Provide personal data in conversation with our team
- Create an account on your own Spektrix system
We also collect data about your interactions with us. For example:
- When you visit our website, we collect information about how you interact with our content and ads
- When we send you a mailing we store a record of this, and in the case of emails we keep a record of which ones you have opened and which links you have clicked on
- We may occasionally receive information about you from third parties. For example, we may use third party research companies to provide general information about you, compiled using publicly available data
How will we use your data?
Situations when we might use your data include:
- When you have specifically given us consent to do so (e.g. you have requested to receive certain information from us)
- If we need to do so to fulfil any contractual obligations we may have with you
- To send you marketing communications when we have a legitimate business interest in doing so (as outlined below)
- If we are required to do so by law, or if in good faith we believe such action is necessary to comply with the law
We will never sell your personal information or share your information with any third parties for the purposes of direct marketing.
Your data may be processed by employees of our subsidiary company as described above when it is necessary for them to be able to provide you with products or services that you’ve requested.
As is common, we use data processors who are third parties who provide elements of services for us. We have contracts in place with our data processors. This means that they cannot do anything with your personal information unless we have instructed them to do it. They will not share your personal information with any organisation apart from us. They will hold it securely and retain it for the period we instruct.
How do we store your data?
Your data may be transferred, processed or stored within the EEA, the UK or the USA. We have appropriate safeguards in place (both in terms of our procedures and the technology we use) to keep your personal information as secure as possible.
We store your data indefinitely so that we can always link new data directly to the record we hold for you. If there are aspects of your record that are inaccurate or that you would like to remove, you can do so using the contact details below. Any objections you make to any processing of your data will be stored against your record on our systems so that we can comply with your requests.
Marketing communications
If you provide us with personal information (such as name, email address, mailing address, telephone), or have done so in the past, via our websites, our publications or in conversation with our team we may use that information to send you updates on our latest company news, product updates and blog content, or to contact you to learn more about your organization. We only send communications where we believe your business has a genuine interest in receiving them.
You can always opt out of these communications. To tell us your contact preferences, please contact us at marketing@spektrix.com. To opt out of any email communications from us, please click the ‘unsubscribe’ link at the foot of the email in question.
If you’re a Spektrix client, we send you product updates, important system information, tips and tricks and notifications via email. We strongly recommend that you stay opted in to these communications, but if you would like to opt out you can do so using the unsubscribe link at the bottom of our emails.
