This is the Privacy Policy of Beyond Secure, Inc. (“Beyond Secure,” “BSI,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). Beyond Secure is an IT outsourcing managed services provider with our main office located at 701 W. Riverside Drive, Austin, Texas 78704. Beyond Secure offers various IT-related services (“Services”) and collects, uses, and discloses Personal Data, as outlined in this Privacy Policy, to improve our Services and provide you with products and services per your contract with us.
Introduction
The concept of online privacy includes the right to decide what personal information you choose to submit and how that information will be used. To protect user privacy, we strive to make users aware of the kinds of information we collect from them, explain why we collect it, how we use it, and whether it will be shared with others.
This Privacy Policy relates to data about you and your interaction with our Services, provides legally required information (for EU residents), and lists your rights concerning your personal data.
Personal Data
“Personal Data” is information that can identify you directly or indirectly and includes such things as your full name, email address, phone number, location, and cookie and network identifiers.
We need to process certain Personal Data to fulfill our contractual obligations to you and provide our Services. Where we ask for your consent to process your Personal Data, you have the right to withdraw such consent as described in this Privacy Policy. Please note, however, that we may be unable to provide certain Services that require the use of Personal Data. Even where your consent would otherwise be required, we may process your Personal Data in accordance with our legitimate interests under applicable law.
Collection of Personal Data
Information Collected Automatically
When users visit the Beyond Secure website, we may collect certain Personal Data using cookies and other technologies, such as web beacons, geolocation, and IP addresses. We use browser cookies for functionality, personalization, performance/analytics, and advertising. For more information, see the “Use of Cookies” section.
Information Collected via Online Form
Personal Data collected includes name, company name, phone number, email address, and city submitted by a user in the “contact us” form. This Personal Data is not distributed to parties outside of Beyond Secure unless a trusted third party provides services for us. Such information is used only for responding to users’ comments or questions and is not made available for other purposes.
Information Collected by Direct Request
We collect Personal Data from you when you request information, place an order with us for products or services, or use our facilities to perform functions under a contract with us. This Personal Data may include name, address, phone number, email address, company name, location data, and payment information.
Disclosure of Personal Data
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer any user personally identifiable information to third parties unless the trusted third party assists us in conducting our business or providing services to clients or their users. We only transfer such information if those third parties agree to keep your information confidential. We may release certain analytics to improve our website and better understand our users’ needs. We may also release user information to comply with the law, enforce our website policies, or protect our rights and others’ rights, property, or safety.
Thus, we may disclose your Personal Data to the following:
- Vendors and Service Providers: Business partners and service providers who support us in providing our Services.
- Legal Compliance: We may disclose Personal Data to law enforcement, government or regulatory bodies, or other authorized authorities as permitted or required by law to comply with regulations, court orders, or other legal obligations, to assist in investigations, protect and defend our rights, or for crime prevention.
- Business Sale, Acquisition, or Reorganization: We may disclose Personal Data in connection with a reorganization of our business, such as during financing, sale, acquisition, or other transactions involving the disposal of all or part of our business or assets, including due diligence.
Legal Basis for Processing Data
We process your Personal Data for various purposes described below. Under the GDPR, we must have a valid lawful legal basis for doing so. A legal basis can, among other things, include consent, performance of a contract, or the legitimate interests of our business.
Contracts
We may process your Personal Data to fulfill our contractual obligations to you, such as providing services or fulfilling purchases you have made, contacting you about issues with the Services, or providing the Services.
