Privacy Policy

At Connect&GO, safeguarding your Personal Data is our top priority. This privacy policy outlines how Technologies Connect&GO Inc. and its affiliates (hereafter referred to as “we” or “us” or “our”) manages the Personal Data we collect or process on our website and in the course of our commercial activities.

I. Interpretation
Personal Data Definition
Personal Data refers to information about an individual who can be identified, directly or indirectly, such as a name, an address, an email address, a phone number, an IP address, and data related to an individual’s physical, physiological, genetic, economic, cultural, or social identity. Information pertaining to businesses is not considered Personal Data.

Third-Party Websites and applications

Our privacy policy does not cover third-party websites, applications, or services linked through Connect&GO’s platforms. Third-party links are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

Capacity

We process Personal Data of end-users only as instructed by our customers (who generally are businesses), except when end-users directly engage with us. End-users are individuals who directly interact with our software or services, primarily in a transactional or usage capacity. This means that we are generally acting as a processor on behalf of our customers, which act as controllers.
 

II. Personal Data we collect about you and how we use it

A. Personal Data that we collect directly from you

We collect Personal Data directly from you when you interact with our websites or mobile applications. This interaction may include activities such as downloading a whitepaper, requesting a product trial, or seeking further information about our services. The purpose of collecting your personal data is to deliver the services or information you have requested, ensuring you receive the full benefits of our offerings. We collect your Personal Data based on your consent, except in cases where collection is mandated or allowed by law. To fulfill service requests or agreements, we collect information including your contact details (name, email address, phone number) and your business affiliation (industry type).  We also collect, for our legitimate interest, this information to share information about Connect&GO's products and services, aiming to enhance user experience and offer relevant content.

B. Personal Data that we collect indirectly from our customers

Customers can also provide Personal Data of end-users and third parties through our services, like during transaction processing. We only use this data to process the payment. This data processing is governed by the customer’s own privacy policy.

C. Information that Connect&GO may automatically collect about you through our websites and applications

We utilize technologies like cookies (session and persistent), web beacons, log data, and third-party analytics (e.g., Google Analytics) on our websites and apps to gather and analyze information about users, including visitors, customers, and partners.
