Welcome to QTap, a service provided by Gizmos Technology Trading W.L.L ("we," "us," "our"). We recognize the importance of online privacy, particularly for users of our site engaging in business activities. This policy outlines our privacy practices for users ("Visitors") who visit our site without conducting business and for those who register to use our services ("Authorized Customers").
"Personally Identifiable Information" refers to any information that can identify, contact, or locate an individual, including, but not limited to, name, address, phone number, email address, financial profiles, and credit card information. It does not include information collected anonymously or demographic information not connected to an identified individual.
What Personally Identifiable Information is collected?
We may collect basic user profile information from all our Visitors. For our Authorized Customers, we collect additional information such as names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses, as well as the nature and size of their business.
What organizations are collecting the information?
In addition to our direct collection of information, third-party service vendors (e.g., credit card companies, clearinghouses, banks) providing services such as credit, insurance, and escrow services may collect this information from our Visitors and Authorized Customers. We do not control how these third parties use such information but request that they disclose their usage policies. Some third parties may act solely as links in the distribution chain and do not store, retain, or use the information provided.
How does the Site use Personally Identifiable Information?
We use Personally Identifiable Information to customize the Site, provide appropriate service offerings, and fulfill purchase and selling requests. We may email Visitors and Authorized Customers regarding research or purchase and selling opportunities related to the Site's subject matter. Additionally, we may use this information to respond to specific inquiries or provide requested information.
With whom may the information be shared?
Personally Identifiable Information about Authorized Customers may be shared with other Authorized Customers evaluating potential transactions. We may also share aggregated information about our Visitors, including demographics, with affiliated agencies and third-party vendors. We offer the opportunity to "opt out" of receiving information or being contacted by us or agencies acting on our behalf.
How is Personally Identifiable Information stored?
Personally Identifiable Information collected by QTap is securely stored and is not accessible to third parties or employees of QTap except for use as indicated above.
What choices are available to Visitors regarding collection, use, and distribution of the information?
Visitors and Authorized Customers may opt out of receiving unsolicited information from us or our vendors and affiliated agencies by responding to emails as instructed or contacting us at hello@gizmostechnology.com.
Are Cookies Used on the Site?
Cookies are used for various reasons, including obtaining information about Visitors' preferences and the services they select. We also use Cookies for security purposes, such as automatically logging off Authorized Customers after a period of inactivity.
How does QTap use login information?
QTap uses login information, such as IP addresses, ISPs, and browser types, to analyze trends, administer the Site, track user movements, and gather broad demographic information.
What partners or service providers have access to Personally Identifiable Information from Visitors and/or Authorized Customers on the Site?
QTap has partnerships and affiliations with vendors who may access certain Personally Identifiable Information on a need-to-know basis to evaluate Authorized Customers for service eligibility. Our privacy policy does not cover these vendors' collection or use of this information.
Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information to comply with law
We will disclose Personally Identifiable Information to comply with court orders, subpoenas, or requests from law enforcement agencies. We will also disclose this information when necessary to protect the safety of our Visitors and Authorized Customers.
How does the Site keep Personally Identifiable Information secure?
All employees are familiar with our security policies and practices. The Personally Identifiable Information of our Visitors and Authorized Customers is only accessible to a limited number of qualified employees who are given passwords to access the information. We regularly audit our security systems and processes. Sensitive information, such as credit card numbers, is protected by encryption protocols. While we take commercially reasonable measures to maintain a secure site, we cannot guarantee or warrant that errors, tampering, or break-ins will not occur, and we are not liable for such occurrences.
How can Visitors correct any inaccuracies in Personally Identifiable Information?
Visitors and Authorized Customers may contact us to update or correct any inaccuracies in their Personally Identifiable Information by emailing us at hello@gizmostechnology.com.
Can a Visitor delete or deactivate Personally Identifiable Information collected by the Site?
We provide Visitors and Authorized Customers with mechanisms to delete/deactivate Personally Identifiable Information from the Site's database by contacting [email address]. However, due to backups and records of deletions, it may be impossible to completely delete a Visitor's entry without retaining some residual information. Deactivated information will not be sold, transferred, or used in any way moving forward.
What happens if the Privacy Policy changes?
We will notify our Visitors and Authorized Customers about changes to our privacy policy by posting such changes on the Site. If changes result in the disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information previously requested to remain undisclosed, we will contact the affected Visitors or Authorized Customers to allow them to prevent such disclosure.
