Privacy Information Management Statement
Gypsybi.com Limited (“Gypsy BI”) publishes and distributes a range of Development and Business management software and provides technical support to both software developers, consultants and end-users. The privacy and security of the personal information that we hold about you is very important to us.
Collection of Personal Information
We most commonly collect information from our customers in the following circumstances:
- Upon registration by you of any of the Gypsy BI software range or services offered through our www.Gypsybi.com.
- Upon the purchasing of upgraded versions of Gypsy BI software, often in response to our having communicated with you about such upgrades
There are other less frequent instances where we collect personal information, such as when financial details are sought from persons or businesses who seek to be Gypsy BI product resellers, where stock is provided on credit.
The information collected would generally comprise name, address, postal address, telephone, fax and e-mail contact details, as well as the details of the Gypsy BI product that you use. High level information in relation to your business may also be collected. Should you contact us requiring technical or similar assistance, information relating to your problem and our suggested solutions may also be recorded by us to assist in better customer relationship management.
How we use this information
We use your personal information in the following ways:
- The main purpose for the collection of personal information is so that we can communicate with you about the software product that you use and efficiently manage and administer all products and services we provide to you. These communications could relate to software upgrades, feature variations or enhancements, any particular issues or problems that have been detected within the software and corrective measures that may be taken and informing you of other Gypsy BI products and services, including the availability of specialized, software specific, add-on products. This information is typically provided in an email.
- Identification of software end-users assists Gypsy BI in establishing who is legally permitted to use the various Gypsy BI software applications and therefore assists us in enforcing copyright and intellectual property rights.
- In the case of financial information requested from parties wishing to be resellers and, as such, be provided with Gypsy BI software stock on credit terms, this information is used to perform credit referencing and checking.
Disclosure
With the exception of the final bullet point above (where the information is disclosed to a credit referencing bureau), very little external disclosure of your personal information is made by Gypsy BI. In the event that an external party wishes to communicate with any or all parts of the Gypsy BI user/partner database, and Gypsy BI is agreeable to this communication being sent, we would generally undertake the communication on behalf of the external party (but at their cost) so that access to the personal information of our customer remains with Gypsy BI. Gypsy BI may use, from time to time, external service providers to facilitate communications with its customers, for example a mail house. In these circumstances, Gypsy BI may provide personal contact/address information to the external service provider to enable the communication to be dispatched. Such information is provided to the external service provider on the strict basis that it be used for this purpose only and agreements are put in place to ensure this.
