SuperLine Telecommunications Limited (SuperLine) consider
protection of your privacy to be of utmost importance and are committed to
providing you with a personalised service that meets your requirements in
a way that safeguards your privacy.
This policy explains how we may collect information about
you and then use it in order to satisfy your particular requirements. It
also outlines some of the security measures that we take in order to
protect your privacy and gives certain assurances on things that we will
not do.
1. Collection of information
We may collect personal information about you from a
number of sources, including:
-
from you when you agree to take a service or product
from us, in which case this may include your contact details, date of
birth, payment method and possibly bank details;
-
from you when you contact us with an enquiry or in
response to a communication from us, in which case this may tell us
something about your preferences;
-
from publicly available sources, such as the electoral
register.
2. Use of information
-
We will use personal information about you for a number
of purposes, including:
to help to identify you when you telephone us to make an enquiry - for
example, by asking you for your date of birth or telephone number so
that we can avoid disclosing information to a person who is not
authorised by you to receive it;
-
to write to you (including electronic mail) or to
telephone you (including text messages) with information about other
services or products either from us or from our carefully selected
partners. We will not use your information in this way if you have opted
out or otherwise not consented.
-
to help us to administer accounts, services and products
which we offer;
-
to help detect fraud or loss;
Information we hold about you and your preferences will
help us to make sure that we contact you about things likely to be of
relevance and interest to you.
In some circumstances, we may do certain credit checks with licensed
credit reference agencies when you apply to take a service or product. If
this is applicable then it will be stated in our terms and conditions of
business.
3. Disclosure of information
We do not sell mailing lists to third parties for their marketing
purposes. Where we have told you in advance, we may disclose certain
information telecoms network service providers for purposes solely
connected with the provision of our service via their networks. Where
required or permitted by law, information may be provided to others, such
as the Police or the Inland Revenue.
4. Protection of information
We maintain strict security measures in order to protect personal
information. This includes following certain procedures, for example to
check your identity when you telephone us, encrypting data on our websites
and in order to ensure compliance with all applicable legal requirements.
5. The Internet
If you communicate with us via the Internet then we may occasionally use
email to contact you about our services and products.
