We wish to help you make informed decisions, so please take a few moments to read the sections below and learn how we may use your personal information.

Personal Information Collection

We endeavour to collect and use your personal information only with your knowledge when you make a customer enquiry via the web site, telephone or email directly.

The type of personal information we may collect could include, for example, your name, company, postal address, telephone number and other information collected on the initial enquiry form.

If you choose to provide us with personal information it will be used in support of the intended purposes stated at the time at which it was collected, and subject to any preferences indicated by you.

Non-personal Identifying Information

We may also collect non-personally identifying information about your visit to our websites based on your browsing activities. This information may include the pages you browse and products and services viewed or ordered for example. This helps us to better manage and develop our sites, to provide you with a more enjoyable, customised service and experience in the future, and to help us develop and deliver better products and services tailored to your individual interests and needs.

From time to time, if you consented accordingly we may also store and use your information to contact you for market research and marketing purposes. We may contact you by email, phone or mail.

How will we use your information?

We may use your information for a number of purposes which includes: processing your enquiry; delivering any services, products or information requested by you; responding to complaints or account enquiries; administering debt recoveries; verifying your identity when required.

We may also undertake market and product analyses based on your use of our services and products and contact you with information about new developments, products, services and special offers by email, mail or telephone.

If you have consented to receive details of products and services, you can contact us at any time to have your details removed from lists used by us for any or all of those purposes, to update your information or to otherwise tell us how you would like to receive information about our products and services – the choice is yours.

To update your marketing preferences please email info [at] bytesnap [dot] co [dot] uk and quote your name/company in the body of the email and tell us what you want us to do.

When will we disclose your information to others?

We may only disclose information about you and contact details for (i) purposes in the terms of this Privacy Policy Statement; (ii) in the event that we undergo re-organisation or are sold to a third party, in which case you agree that any personal information we hold about you may be transferred to that re-organised entity or third party for the purposes and subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy Statement.

Please note that ByteSnap does not sell your personal information to third parties.

Please note that ByteSnap does not pass your personal information to third parties or other suppliers unless you have given clear indication you consent to this action via email for the purposes of helping you directly in your enquiry or the delivery of our services for you.

ByteSnap may also be obliged to disclose your personal information to meet any legal or regulatory requirements (for example to comply with a court order) or obligations in accordance with applicable law.

Social Media, Blogs, Reviews

Any social media posts or comments you send to us (on the ByteSnap Facebook page, for instance) will be shared under the terms of the relevant social media platform (e.g. Facebook / Twitter) on which they are written and could be made public.
Other people, not us, control these platforms. We are not responsible for this kind of sharing. We recommend you should review the terms and conditions and privacy policies of the social media platforms you use. That way, you will understand how they will use your information, what information relating to you they will place in the public domain, and how you can stop them from doing so if you are unhappy about it.

Any blog, review or other posts or comments you make about us, our products and services on any of our blogs, reviews or via email may be shared with all other members of that service and the public at large. Any comments you make on these services and on social media in general must be not offensive, insulting or defamatory. You are responsible for ensuring that any comments you make comply with any relevant policy on acceptable use of those services.

How long do we keep your information for?

To make sure we meet our legal data protection and privacy obligations, we only hold on to your information for as long as we actually need it for the purposes we acquired it for in the first place.

In most cases, this means we will keep your information for as long as you continue to use our services, and for a reasonable period of time afterwards for marketing. After that we will delete it other than where we lawfully can keep any data for audit or legal reasons.

We shall keep data on our CRM database for not longer than 10 years from receipt subject to an individual’s right to unsubscribe or be forgotten at any time.
