ELECOSOFT ICONSYSTEM PRIVACY POLICY

Our Privacy Promise

We care about your privacy and promise to keep your data safe and private and not to sell your data.

How we use your personal information

This privacy notice is to let you know how we promise to look after your personal information. This includes what you tell us about yourself, what we learn by having you as a customer, and how we will communicate with you about our products and services. This notice explains how we do this and tells you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

WHO WE ARE: Elecosoft is the trading name of Integrated Computing & Office Networking Limited (ICON) which is a company incorporated in the United Kingdom

-----------------------------------------------------------------

HOW THE LAW PROTECTS YOU: As well as our Privacy Promise, your privacy is protected by law. This section explains how that works.

Data Protection law says that we are allowed to use personal information only if we have a proper reason to do so. This includes sharing it outside Elecosoft. The law says we must have one or more of these reasons:

  • To fulfil a contract we have with you, or
  • When it is our legal duty, or
  • When it is in our legitimate interest, or
  • When you consent to it.

A legitimate interest is when we have a business or commercial reason to use your information. But even then, it must not unfairly go against what is right and best for you. Where we rely on our legitimate interest, we will tell you what that is as outlined in ‘How we use your personal information’.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION: Here is a list of all the ways that we may use your personal information, and which of the reasons we rely on to do so. This is also where we tell you what our legitimate interests are.

SENDING DATA OUTSIDE OF THE EEA: We will only send your data outside of the European Economic Area (‘EEA’) to:
•    Comply with a legal duty.
•    Work with our partners who we use to help provide products and services.


If we do transfer information outside of the EEA, we will make sure that it is protected in the same way as if it was being used in the EEA. We’ll use one of these safeguards:
•    Transfer it to a non-EEA country with privacy laws that give the same protection as the EEA. Learn more on the European Commission Justice website.
•    Put in place a contract with the recipient that means they must protect it to the same standards as the EEA. Read more about this here on the European Commission Justice website,
•    Transfer it to organisations that are part of Privacy Shield. This is a framework that sets privacy standards for data sent between the US and EU countries. It makes sure those standards are similar to what is used within the EEA. You can find out more about data protection on the European Commission Justice website.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO GIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION: This would mean that we cannot deliver products and services for you or it could mean that we cancel a product or service you have with us.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION: We will keep your personal information for as long as you are a customer of any Elecosoft business or we are in contact with you regarding our products and services. If you stop being a customer or request us to cease contacting you about our products and services, we may keep your data indefinitely if we cannot delete it for legal, regulatory or technical reasons. We may also keep it for research or statistical purposes. If we do, we will make sure that your privacy is protected and only use it for those purposes.

This is known as the ‘right to object’ and ‘right to erasure’, or the ‘right to be forgotten’.
There may be technical, contractual or other official reasons why we need to keep or use your data but please tell us if you think that we should not be using it.
We may sometimes be able to restrict the use of your data. This means that it can only be used for certain things, such as legal claims or to exercise legal rights. In this situation, we would not use or share your information in other ways while it is restricted.
If you want to object to how we use your data or ask us to delete it or restrict how we use it, please contact us.
