2. Information Collected or Received

 

In the course of providing our Services, we may collect and receive Account Data and other information and data (“Other Information”) in a few different ways. Certain information may be required for you to use and for us to provide you the Services.

 

Account Data:

• Personal information such as name and email address that a User, Customer, Administrator, or Partner, inputs, uploads, or otherwise captures in the SynQ Prox System; and

• Usage data that is automatically collected by the SynQ Prox System.

 

Other Information:

• Usage Data:

  • Log data. As with most websites and technology services delivered over the Internet, our servers automatically collect information when you access or use our Websites or Services and record it in log files. This log data may include the Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and settings, the date and time the Services were used, information about browser configuration and plugins, language preferences and cookie data.

  • Device information. SynQ Prox may collect information about devices accessing the Services, including type of device, what operating system is used, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this Other Information often depends on the type of device used and its settings.

  • Location data. SynQ Prox may require Location Services to be enabled in order for the mobile application to function reliably on some operating systems. We do not collect your physical location data or GPS information, and we do not share or sell your data to third parties. The SynQ Prox mobile application (both for iOS and Android) utilizes Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) which is required to be part of the Location Services on some operating systems.

• Cookie Information:

  • SynQ Prox uses cookies and similar technologies in our Websites and Services to help us collect Other Information. The Websites and Services may also include cookies and similar tracking technologies of third parties, which may collect Other Information about you via the Websites and Services and across other websites and online services.

• Third Party Data:

  • SynQ Prox may receive data about organizations, industries, lists of companies that are customers, Website visitors, marketing campaigns and other matters related to our business from affiliates and subsidiaries, partners, or others that we may use to make our own information better or more useful. This data may be combined with Other Information we collect.

 

Generally, no one is under a statutory or contractual obligation to provide any Account Data or Other Information. However, certain information is collected automatically and, if some information is not provided, we may be unable to provide the Services.

 

3. How SynQ Prox Uses Account Data and Other Information

 

SynQ Prox uses Account Data and Other Information to further our ability in operating our System and Services. More specifically, SynQ Prox uses Account Data and Other Information:

 

• To provide, update, maintain and protect our Services, Websites and business. This includes use of Other Information to support delivery of the Services, prevent or address service errors, security or technical issues, and analyze and monitor usage, trends and other activities.

• As required by applicable law, legal process or regulation.

• To communicate with you by responding to your requests, comments and questions. If you contact us, we may use your Other Information to respond.

• To develop and provide additional features.

• To send emails and other communications. We may send you service, technical and other administrative emails, messages, and other types of communications. We may also contact you to inform you about changes in our Services, our Services offerings, and important Services-related notices, such as security and fraud notices. These communications are considered part of the Services and you may not opt out of them.

• For billing, account management and other administrative matters. SynQ Prox may need to contact you for invoicing, account management, and similar reasons and we use Account Data administer accounts and keep track of billing and payments.

• To investigate and help prevent security issues and abuse.

 

We do not sell, rent, or otherwise provide your Account Data and Other Information to third parties for marketing purposes. We may provide your Account Data and Other Information to affiliates that provide services to us with regards to our System; such affiliates will only receive information necessary to provide the respective services and will be bound by confidentiality agreements limiting the use of such information.​

 

4. Account Management and Data Deletion

​

At SynQ Prox, we understand the importance of data privacy and security. Since our app is primarily used within an organizational context, individual users do not create accounts directly within the app. Instead, account creation and management are handled externally by the employer or designated administrative staff.

​

Data Deletion Requests: If you need to request the deletion of your data, please contact your employer or the business provider that manages your account. They have the authority to manage account details, including deletion, in accordance with security protocols and compliance requirements. This process ensures that all data handling practices align with organizational policies and legal standards.

​

For any questions or concerns about the data management policies of your employer or how they handle your personal information within the SynQ Prox system, please contact your organization's administrator or the person in charge of privacy matters in your company. If you need further assistance, please contact support@bitvisory.com.

​

5. Data Location and Transfers

 

SynQ Prox stores all Account Data and Other Information in the United States. SynQ Prox does not currently operate as a global service; however, in order to facilitate Customers’ global operations, SynQ Prox would transfer Account Data and Other Information to the United States and provide Customers with access to that information.

 

6. Security

 

The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and after it is received. If you are an Administrator, your account information is protected by a password. It is important that you protect against unauthorized access to your account and information by choosing your password carefully and by keeping your password and computer secure, such as by signing out after using the Services. If you have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can contact us at support@bitvisory.com.

 

SynQ Prox encrypts certain information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). SynQ Prox follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and after it is received. Unfortunately, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

 

7. Retention

 

SynQ Prox will retain your information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, for as long as your account is active, as described in this policy, or as needed to provide the Services to you. If you no longer want SynQ Prox to use your information to provide the Services to you, you may contact us at support@bitvisory.com. SynQ Prox will retain and use your information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your information to comply with applicable tax/revenue laws), resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and as otherwise described in this policy. We also retain log files for internal analysis purposes. These log files are generally retained for a brief period of time, except in cases where they are used for site safety and security, to improve site functionality, or we are legally obligated to retain them for longer time periods.

 

8. Your Rights

 

Individuals located in certain countries, including the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, have certain statutory rights in relation to their personal data. Subject to any exemptions provided by law, you may have the right to request access to Information, as well as to seek to update, delete or correct this Information.

To the extent that SynQ Prox’s processing of your Personal Data is subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (or applicable laws covering the processing of Personal Data in the United Kingdom), SynQ Prox relies on its legitimate interests, described above, to process your data. SynQ Prox may also process Other Information that constitutes your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes, and you have a right to object to SynQ Prox’s use of your Personal Data for this purpose at any time.
