Processing Of Personal Data for the Purposes of Fraud Prevention and Network and Information Security

On the basis of legitimate interest, we process Personal Data for fraud prevention and network and information security purposes. The Personal Data we process for network and information security purposes include, without limitation, network traffic data related to Cyber-Threats such as:

• sender email addresses (e.g., of sources of SPAM);
• recipient email addresses (e.g., of victims of targeted email cyberattacks);
• reply-to email addresses (e.g., as configured by cybercriminals sending malicious email);
• filenames and execution paths (e.g., of malicious or otherwise harmful executable files attached to emails);
• URLs and associated page titles (e.g., of web pages broadcasting or hosting malicious or otherwise harmful contents); and/or
• IP addresses (e.g., of web servers and connected devices involved in the generation, distribution, conveyance, hosting, caching or other storage of Cyber-Threats such as malicious or otherwise harmful contents).

Depending on the context in which such data is collected, it may contain Personal Data concerning you or any other data subjects. However, in such cases, we will process the data concerned only to the extent strictly necessary and proportionate to the purposes of detecting, blocking, reporting and mitigating the Cyber-Threat of concern to you, and to all organizations relying on our products and services to secure their information networks and systems. When processing Personal Data in this context, we will only seek to identify data subjects:

• to the extent that it is an inherent part to the services that our customers hire us to perform for them, and as such it is strictly indispensable to the prevention of the fraud and/or the remediation of the Cyber-Threat concerned, or
• if and as required by law.

If you believe that your Personal Data was unduly collected or is unduly processed by BT Partners for such purposes, please refer to the “Your Rights” and “Contact Us” sections below. Please be aware that if it is determined that Personal Data concerning you is processed by BT Partners because it is critical for the detection, blocking or mitigation of Cyber-Threats, then in certain cases the legitimate interest to pursue such processing may be compelling enough to override access, objection, rectification or erasure requests related to the data concerned.

With Whom Do We Share Your Information and Why?

BT Partners does not sell your personal information. We will not sell any data whatsoever and will only gather information with WordPress, Active Campaign and Google Tools. We only share your information as described in this Policy. BT Partners processes your information for the purposes described in this policy, which include the above-listed commercial and business purposes in the meaning of the CCPA (see the “How Do We Use Your Information?” section above). We may share Personal Data collected about you as follows:

• Affiliates or Subsidiaries. Data we collect from you may be shared with our affiliates or subsidiaries.
• Unaffiliated Third Parties. Certain data about you may be shared with select resellers and/or distributors, particularly if you or your company have purchased through a third party before.
• Service Providers. Data we collect from you may be disclosed to third party vendors, service providers, contractors or agents who perform functions on our behalf. We may share aggregate or de-identified information about users with third parties for marketing, advertising, research, or similar purposes.

What About Links To Other Websites?

Our Site and services may contain links to third party websites for your convenience. Any access to and use of such linked websites will cause you to leave the Site. Third party websites, even if potentially serving content co-branded by BT Partners, are not governed by this Policy, but instead are governed by their own privacy statements/policies. We recommend that you check the privacy statements/policies of every third party website you visit before providing any Personal Data. We do not control those third party websites and are not responsible for their content or their privacy policies. Thus, we do not endorse or make any legal representations about them. If you decide to access any of the third party websites linked to our Site, you do so entirely at your own risk.

How Do We Secure Your Personal Data?

We have implemented administrative, technical, physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction and to help maintain data accuracy and ensure that your Personal Data is used appropriately. BT Partners has an internal Global Customer Privacy Program. Its charter is to ensure appropriate privacy processes are in place in order to meet the practices outlined herein. Where Personal Data is processed by service providers on behalf of BT Partners, we take steps to require those vendors to also comply with applicable data protection laws.

How Long Do We Retain Your Personal Data?

We will retain your Personal Data for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy and/or in applicable supplemental notices unless a longer retention period is required by law.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the following rights described below with respect to your Personal Data. In particular, if the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) applies to your information, we provide these disclosures and the tools described in this Policy so you can exercise your rights to receive information about our data practices, as well as to request access to and deletion of your information. To exercise your rights, you may:

• make use of the self-serve tools available in the products or services you are using;
• submit your privacy request via our Request Intake Form; or
• contact your customer support representative.

It is our legal obligation to validate any request we receive before responding. The Request Intake Form linked above is specifically designed to ensure reliable and auditable request validation. Therefore, we will not respond to requests that are not submitted and cannot be validated through this channel. If it is impossible for you to use any of the methods listed above, please contact the Privacy Office as indicated below to find a resolution.

Email and Marketing

In most instances, we give you options with regard to the Personal Data you provide, including choices with respect to marketing materials. You may manage your receipt of marketing and non-transactional communications by: (i) clicking on the “unsubscribe” link located at the bottom of marketing emails; or (ii) checking certain boxes on our preference center which can also be found on certain forms we use to collect Personal Data.

Access

You may request information regarding Personal Data that we collect and hold about you and the source(s) of that information. Please submit your request as described in the “How Can You Contact Us?” section below.

Please note that copies of information that you have updated, modified or deleted may remain viewable in cached and archived pages, particularly of the Site for a limited period of time. If you request a change to or deletion of your Personal Data, please note that we may still need to retain certain information for record-keeping purposes, and/or to complete any transactions that you began prior to requesting such change or deletion (e.g., when you make a purchase, you may not be able to change or delete the Personal Data provided until after the completion of such purchase). Some of your information may also remain within our systems and other records where necessary for compliance with applicable law.

You can request a copy of any Personal Data we hold about you, and of which you don’t already have a copy. This service is usually free of charge, although we have the right to charge a ‘reasonable fee’ in some circumstances;

Note however that you may be subject to differentiated treatment if and to the extent that the exercise of your rights materially impacts our ability to provide certain services to you (e.g. if you request the deletion of your account information or access credentials, then we may no longer be able to grant you access to restricted areas of our websites). Such differentiated treatment is objectively justified and does not constitute discrimination.
• Withdraw Consent. You have the right to withdraw consent to us processing your Personal Data. This will not affect the processing already carried out with your consent;

In some circumstances, you have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing, and to obtain the human review of any such decisions that significantly affect you (please refer to the earlier section on automated decision making); and

What About Californian “Shine the Light” Privacy Rights?

California law, under California Civil Code Section 1798.83 (known as the “Shine the Light” law), permits our established customers who are California residents to request information regarding the manner in which it shares certain categories of your Personal Data with third parties, for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes.

• The categories of information BT Partners disclosed to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year;
• The names and addresses of third parties that received such information; and
• If the nature of a third party’s business cannot be reasonably determined from the third party’s name, examples of the products or services marketed.

You are entitled to receive a copy of this information up to one request per calendar year in a standardized format and the information will not be specific to you individually. BT Partners’ designated email address for such requests is the one indicated in the contact details above. We reserve our right not to respond to requests submitted to addresses other than the addresses specified in this paragraph. In your request, please attest to the fact that you are a California resident and provide a current California address for your response. Please allow up to thirty (30) days for a response.

How Are Cross-Border Transfers of Data Performed?

Subject to your permission or as permitted by law, the Personal Data that you provide to us may be transferred within BT Partners across state or country borders. This may be done to consolidate data storage or to simplify the management of customer information. We have adopted globally recognized privacy principles and only collect and/or share your Personal Data to the extent it is necessary to conduct business and perform requested services. BT Partners in the United States and service providers comply with applicable legal requirements providing for adequate protection of Personal Data transferred to countries outside of the EEA, the UK and Switzerland.

In certain cases, where Personal Data originating from the European Economic Area is transferred to countries that are not recognized by the European Commission as offering an adequate level of Personal Data protection, such transfers are covered by alternate appropriate safeguards, specifically standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission. If applicable to you, you may obtain copies of such safeguards by contacting us.

Cookie Policy

We use cookies and similar technologies on our website (“Site”) so that we can improve your experience for example by recognizing you whenever you visit our Site, providing you personalized information, remembering your marketing and product preferences, and helping you obtain the right information. You can find out more about cookies and similar technologies, how we use them, and how to control them below.

Your use of our Site or services is subject to our Terms of Use and Privacy Statement.

Cookies

Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that are transferred to your computer’s hard drive through your web browsers for record-keeping purposes. Some cookies allow us to make it easier for you to navigate our Site and services, while others are used to enable a faster log-in process or to allow us to track your activities at our Site and Service. Cookies on this Site may be delivered in a first-party (set by our website) or third-party (set by another website) context. There are two types of cookies: session and persistent cookies.

Session Cookies

Session cookies exist only during an online session. They disappear from your computer when you close your browser or turn off your computer. We use session cookies to allow our systems to uniquely identify you during a session or while you logged into the Site. This allows us to process your online transactions and requests and verify your identity, after you have logged in, as you move through our Site.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain on your computer after you have closed your browser or turned off your computer. We use persistent cookies to track aggregate and statistical information about our user’s activity.

Clear GIFs, pixel tags and other technologies

Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web pages. We may use clear GIFs (a.k.a. web beacons, web bugs or pixel tags), in connection with our Site to, among other things, track the activities of Site visitors, help us manage content, and compile statistics about Site usage. We and our third party service providers also use clear GIFs in emails to our customers, to help us measure email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and determine whether our emails are forwarded.

Third Party Analytics

We use third party automated devices and applications to evaluate usage of our Site, like Active Campaign and Google Tools. We also may use other analytic means to help us improve our services, performance, and user experiences. These applications may use cookies and other tracking technologies to provide their services to us. We do not share your personal data except on an aggregated basis with these third parties.

How Do We Use Third-Party Ad Networks?

We use third parties such as network advertisers to display advertisements on our Sites, to assist us in displaying advertisements on third party websites, and to evaluate the success of our advertising campaigns. This enables us and these third parties to deliver ads for products and services in which you might be interested. Third party ad network providers, advertisers, sponsors and/or traffic measurement services may use cookies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. We may provide these third-party advertisers with information about your usage of our Site and our services, as well as aggregate or non-personally identifiable information about visitors to our Site and users of our service. These third party cookies and other technologies are governed by each third party’s specific privacy policy.

If you are a visitor from a country where these cookies have been enabled, you may opt-out of many third-party ad networks, including those operated by members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) and the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”).

Opting out of one or more NAI or DAA member networks (many of which will be the same) means that members of those networks will no longer deliver targeted content or ads to you. You may continue to receive advertisements, for example, based on the particular website that you are viewing. Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you change web browsers, your NAI or DAA opt-out may no longer be effective. For more information regarding this practice by NAI and DAA members, and your choices regarding having this information used by these companies, including how to opt-out of third-party ad networks operated by NAI and DAA members, please visit their respective websites: http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ (NAI) and http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ (DAA).
