What information do we collect about you?
To process your order or to provide you with a quotation it is necessary to collect some personal information from you, including your full name, billing/delivery address, phone number, email address, company name, VAT number and payment details. For the purposes of fraud prevention and security, we also have a legitimate interest to collect your devices IP address and to request additional information to verify your identity or to approve credit facilities (e.g. job title, company number).
If you register an account on any of our websites you will be required to provide a password to keep your details secure. Please follow our recommendations for choosing a secure password and do not reuse an old or existing password. We do not have access to your password as it is stored by the website in an encrypted form.
We also collect information when you voluntarily complete customer surveys, provide feedback, access the EBI Academy and participate in competitions. Website usage information is collected using cookies.
How will we use the information about you?
We collect information about you to process your order, offer support (as per the support contract) manage your account, offer training via the EBI Academy, and, if you agree, to email you about additions to our product range, new products and services. EBI Software will not share your information for marketing purposes with companies outside the EBI Group. In processing your order, we may send your details to, and also use information from credit reference agencies and fraud prevention agencies.
Marketing
If you have consented to receive marketing, you may opt out at a later date. You have a right at any time to stop us from contacting you for marketing purposes or giving your information to other members of the Retail Group. If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please opt out using the link on the marketing e-mail..
Access to your information and correction
You have the right to request a copy of the information that we hold about you. If you would like a copy of some or all of your personal information, please email or write to us. We may make a small charge for this service. We want to make sure that your personal information is accurate and up to date. You may ask us to correct or remove information you think is inaccurate.
If you have any questions about this privacy policy, the use of your personal information, or if you wish to request us to stop using your information in any way, please contact our Privacy Officer using the details below. In order to comply with your request, we may ask you to verify your identity. If you request erasure of your personal data, please note that we may be required to retain some of your data for a minimum period as explained in the ‘Retention of your personal information’ section below. Deleting your data may also prevent us from verifying a future support claim.
If you wish to raise a complaint on how we have handled your personal data, please contact our Privacy Officer using the details below. If you are not satisfied with our response or believe we are not processing your personal data in accordance with the law, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
Retention of your personal information
We will retain your personal information for the period necessary to provide the services requested (e.g. fulfilling an order or sending regular newsletters), after which time it will be destroyed, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law, for legal, tax or regulatory reasons, or other lawful purposes. For example, if you have made a purchase we are required under UK tax law to keep your basic personal data (name, address and contact details) for a minimum of 6 years.
For our customers, we will retain a record of your details indefinitely. This record will include your basic contact and company details as well as a history of your orders and purchases to enable us to verify a future support claim. You can ask us to delete this data but in doing so we will then be unable to verify a future support claim.
If you have created an account on the EBI Academy website your details will be stored by the website to enable you to access your training history and to take new courses. Your details will be retained by the website until such time as you request deletion of your account.
