Data collected by mySupermarket Insights


mySupermarket Insights's privacy policy ensures that any information provided by a User remains private and secure. To reassure Users, below mySupermarket Insights provides details of the information a User provides to mySupermarket Insights, and how it will and, more importantly, will not be used. mySupermarket Insights will never collect sensitive information about a User without a User's explicit consent. To the best of our ability, the information mySupermarket Insights holds will be accurate and up to date and reflect the data a User has provided to us. A User can check the information that mySupermarket Insights holds about him, her or the User Organisation by contacting mySupermarket Insights (and there may be an administrative fee payable for this). If a User finds any inaccuracies mySupermarket Insights will delete or correct it promptly.

When a Client or User registers for the Service or for participation in any free functionality on or through the Website he or she may be asked to provide various personal details such as their first name, last name, email address, telephone number, User Organisation, position in User Organisation, and details of how that User heard about the Service, etc. ("Initial Details").

mySupermarket Insights has an absolute discretion to decide whether or not to accept any a registration. Initially, the Initial Details will be used by mySupermarket Insights only to decide whether or not to contact the User or Client to discuss the Service. If mySupermarket Insights decides not to contact the User or Client, then the Initial Details will not be used for any other purpose and will be deleted within 2 months of their having been supplied.

If mySupermarket Insights does contact the User or Client, then it will use the Initial Details (which includes any details provided by the User during that contact) as part of its decision as to whether or not to accept such registration. If mySupermarket decides not to accept such registration, then the Initial Details will not be used for any other purpose and will be deleted within 2 months of the contact by mySupermarket Insights.

If mySupermarket Insights does accept the registration, then in respect of the Initial Details and in respect of any other details that mySupermarket Insights collects, mySupermarket Insights collects these details so that it may:

  1. contact the User during and after the provision of free functionality to help explain the Service;
  2. determine who the main contact is in the User Organisation and their position within the User Organisation;
  3. provide support and respond to any queries the User may have about the Service;
  4. find the right subscription package for the User Organisation or the User;
  5. arrange subscription to the Service and put in place invoicing arrangements with the User Organisation or the User;
  6. track sales made by the User Organisation or the User; and
  7. use the information for mySupermarket Insights's marketing purposes and to contact and call a User in respect of marketing and sales. This may also include market research.

Where a User subscribes for the Service mySupermarket Insights will also collect payment details and the address of the User Organisation and Users.

mySupermarket Insights will never provide any personal details to third parties outside its group unless in anonymous form or as mySupermarket Insights states elsewhere in this policy.

A User must only submit to mySupermarket Insights or the Website information which is accurate and not misleading and he or she must keep it up to date and inform mySupermarket Insights of changes.

Security


The personal information which mySupermarket Insights holds will be held securely in accordance with its internal security policy and the law.

Technology


mySupermarket Insights uses "cookies" and "flash cookies" and similar technology (all of which we call "Access Files") to store data in Users' computers using the functionality of their browsers. A lot of websites do this, because Access Files allow the website publisher to do useful things like find out whether the computer (and probably its user) has visited the Website before and to check that a user is authorised to properly access different parts of a website or service.

Users can usually modify their browsers to prevent Access Files use - but if Users do this the Service (and the Website) will not work properly. The information stored in the Access Files is used to identify the User. This enables mySupermarket Insights to operate an efficient service and to track the patterns of behaviour of visitors to the Website and to check that a particular user is accessing the Service (and the Website) properly.

Changes
