Diagnostic Information: Our products log system level activities. We capture this information for quality assurance purposes only. It is stored for a short period of time.

All of our corporate entities and staff operate under our internal policies, procedures and standards which enforce the level of protection for your data reflected in this policy.

If so, we will need to share relevant information with them. We only work with reputable organisations and when we partner with them, we subject them to checks which require them to have appropriate standards in place to manage your data. We encourage you to read their privacy policies and ensure you are fully informed.
Operational service providers: We work with third-party service providers to provide website and application development, hosting, maintenance, backup, storage, virtual infrastructure, payment processing, analysis, customer, technical and sales support services.

Hot-spots: When End Users connect to our networking products (e.g., access points, network gateways) an authentication process will be triggered. Device and/or authorisation tokens/certificates or a sign-in will allow our products to identify an End User (where possible). This is fundamental for the operation of our products. Once registered, devices can be recognised by participating network gateways. We may share your End Users masked names (first name and first initial of last name) and device identification information where they connect to participating networks.
Shared End Users: Should you request to share Cyber Safety Data associated with or control of an End User with another account holder then we will disclose your name to that other party. This is required to assist them to determine whether your request should be granted.

We take information security seriously and have a security program which includes administrative, technical, physical and managerial measures that is reasonably designed to protect the information we collect from loss, misuse and unauthorised access or disclosure. For example we:
We urge you to be diligent in securing your computing networks, devices, usernames and passwords. Should other parties obtain access to these or guess them (because they are too simple) then your information may be compromised.
For convenience we make certain technologies available to you to make it easier to log in to your account or be authenticated to access the network or internet. For example, cookies, remember-me and single-sign-on type technologies. If you use these technologies, then we urge you to use device PINs and to log off your device when you’re not using it.

In the event of an emergency involving the danger of death or serious physical injury to a person please ensure the subject is: Emergency Disclosure Request.
We will respond to valid, properly served legal processes to the extent required by law.
It is our policy to use commercially reasonable efforts to notify affected account holders when we receive legal process requests for user data. Generally, except where a court order (and not just the request for information itself) requires delayed notification or no notification, or except where notification is otherwise prohibited by law or where we, in our sole discretion, believe that providing notice would be futile, ineffective or would create a risk of injury or bodily harm to an individual or group, or to our property, we will endeavour to provide reasonable prior notice to the relevant user of the request for user data in the event the user wishes to seek appropriate protective relief.
Submissions via an End User
The following relates to situations where an End User discloses to us information through a contact or feedback form and which indicates an incident or an intention to cause harm to themselves or others (a “Disclosure of Harm”).
For the purpose of clarity:
Disclosures of imminent and serious threat to life, health or safety
Where an End User discloses to us an Imminent and serious threat to life, health or safety then we will:
In this context Imminent means a Disclosure of Harm indicative of a Foreseeable risk which requires immediate action, as inaction is likely to result in harmful activities and Foreseeable means a future risk which can be reasonably predicted based upon a result of inferred actions, occurring as a result from a disclosure which indicates a method of harm, or a specified time, date, time-frame or location of harmful act.
Other disclosures of threats to life, health or safety
Where an End User otherwise discloses to us a serious threat to life, health or safety then we will:
Seek to provide the End User with details of relevant support services;
Make reasonable steps to identify the End User, their School and their Parents (or guardians); and
Make reasonable steps to contact the End User’s School and Parents (or guardians).
Indications based on End User activity
We may offer you features of our products which monitor End User activity for the purpose of identifying risky behaviour (“Behavioural Insights”). Such features may identify behaviour indicative of self-harm.
We do not promise that these Behavioural Insights are complete or accurate. We do not promise to monitor them or escalate issues to you or relevant authorities.
