How we protect your information

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. We do our best to protect your personal information, but we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Service; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

We will never send you unsolicited emails or contact you by phone requesting your account ID, password, credit or debit card information or national identification numbers.

If you have a Qatalog account, we recommend using a strong, unique password for your account and making sure you keep your password confidential.

External sites

Our Service may, from time to time, contain links to external sites. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies. Qatalog does not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies or any content on external sites and does not necessarily endorse the views expressed within them. Qatalog has no control over the availability of any of these websites. Please check each site's policies before you submit any personal information to these websites.

Data Deletion Policy

Qatalog's Data Deletion Policy describes how customer data is deleted in connection with the cancellation or termination of a Qatalog account.

This policy applies to all data collected by Qatalog except:

  • data that resides in any Qatalog product or service not covered by this policy
  • data that resides in third-party services managed and hosted by third parties, with the exception of the company's infrastructure provider
  • data that resides in Qatalog products or services that are in beta, testing, or an early access program

By default, a customer's data is stored for the duration of their contract with Qatalog.

The data may be deleted 90 days after the contract ends, at the latest, with the exception of data that is required to establish proof of a right or a contract, which will be stored for the duration provided by enforceable law.

Once deleted, a user's data cannot be restored.

Qatalog may provide the option for customers to delete data after their subscription ends. This request must be made by the customer, and Qatalog may require additional ID verification. Qatalog should hard delete all information from currently running production systems 45 days of the deletion request.

Only the Security Team at Qatalog can delete customer data in the event that Qatalog is required to do so.

How long we keep your information

If you have an account with us, we will hold your personal information for so long as you use our Service and/or have your account with us in order to meet our contractual obligations to you, and for 6 years after that to identify any issues and resolve any legal proceedings. (We may retain your personal information for a longer period in the event of a complaint, if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of legal proceedings in respect of our relationship with you, or we are aware of pending or ongoing legal proceedings with you.)

We otherwise process personal information only for so long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of our legitimate business interests and satisfying any legal or reporting requirements, after which it will be deleted or archived. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and the applicable legal requirements.

In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal information (so that it can no longer be associated with you and you cannot be re-identified). This anonymised data (for example, aggregated statistics) is no longer personal information, and we may keep and use this anonymised information indefinitely without further notice to you, to help us provide, develop and improve our services.

Your rights

Under data protection law, you have a number of rights in respect of your personal information that we process.

If you are in the UK or the EEA you have the following rights, under certain circumstances:

  • Right of access. You have the right to obtain:
    • to be provided with a copy of your personal information held by us;
    • to request the correction or deletion of your personal information held by us;
    • to request that we restrict the processing of your personal information (while we verify or investigate your concerns with this information, for example);
    • to object to the further processing of your personal information, including the right to object to marketing; and
    • to request that your provided personal information be moved to a third party.
  • Right to rectification. You have the right to obtain rectification of any inaccurate or incomplete personal information we hold about you without undue delay.
  • Right to erasure. You have the right, in some circumstances, to require us to erase your personal information without undue delay if the continued processing of that personal information is not justified.
  • Right to restriction. You have the right, in some circumstances, to require us to limit the purposes for which we process your personal information if the continued processing of the personal information in this way is not justified, such as where the accuracy of the personal information is contested by you.
  • Right of portability. You have the right, in certain circumstances, to receive a copy of the personal information you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format that supports re-use, or to request the transfer of your personal information to another person.
  • Right to withdraw consent. If you have provided consent for the processing of your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent, including to withdraw consent to marketing.
  • Right to object. You also have the right to object to any processing based on our legitimate interests where there are grounds relating to your particular situation. There may be compelling reasons for continuing to process your personal information, and we will assess and inform you if that is the case.

How to exercise your rights

If you have any questions about how we handle your personal information or wish to exercise any of your legal rights you can contact us by writing to us at [email protected]. If our processing of your personal information is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent without detriment at any time.

The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is the UK data protection supervisory authority, and can provide further information about your rights and our obligations in relation to your personal information, and  deal with any complaints you may have about our processing of your personal information (please visit their website at www.ico.org.uk). You may also approach your local data protection authority (see European Commission: Data Protection - Data Protection Authorities). We would appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach a supervisory authority, so please do contact us by writing to us at [email protected] in the first instance.
