Privacy Policy

1. Overview

CyberWave Inc. (“CyberWave,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through compliance with this Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect and use your Personal Information when you visit our website at https://www.cyberwaveit.com or otherwise use the Platform as described further in the Terms of Service, and that you may provide in electronic messages to CyberWave. Please read this Privacy Policy to understand our policies and practices regarding your Personal Information and how we will handle it. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, do not use the Platform.  By accessing or using the Platform, you agree and consent to this Privacy Policy. CyberWave may change this Privacy Policy at any time, at its discretion. Your continued use of the Platform after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of and consent to those changes, so please check the Privacy Policy periodically for updates. This Privacy Policy is subject to and governed by the CyberWave Terms of Service. The Services are part of the Platform and are described further in the Terms of Service.

2. The Types of Information That CyberWave Collects About You and How CyberWave Collects Information About You

CyberWave may collect two types of information from you when you visit the Platform: Personal Information and Non-Personal Information (collectively “Information”).

“Personal Information” refers to data by which you may be personally identified, such as name, email address, employer, job title and department, and telephone number. “Non-Personal Information” means data that is about you, but does not identify you specifically. If you do nothing during your visit to our Platform but browse, read pages, or view content, we will gather and store Information about your visit that does not identify you personally.

We collect Information:

Directly from you when you provide it to us. When you subscribe to a newsletter, create an account, make a purchase or request information from CyberWave, we will ask for things like your name, contact, billing, shipping and communication information, and account ID or credentials in order to fulfill your request. If you set up an appointment with us through the Platform, attend a trade show or event, or otherwise contact us, you may also voluntarily provide similar information.  If you submit any Personal Information about other people to us or to our service providers, you are responsible for making sure that you have the authority to do so and to allow us to use their Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy (for example, by You asking for their consent). From third parties. We obtain information through partners, vendors, suppliers and other third parties.  The parties from whom we obtain information are typically corporate enterprises (although some may also be educational or public enterprises) and they may be located in any of the locations in which we do business.  These enterprises largely fall into the following categories: Advertising and marketing companies, data set and information vendors, public database providers, social media platforms, partners, providers of products or services, hosts or vendors at events or trade shows, research partners, or enterprises that use CyberWave Services.  We take steps to confirm that information we receive from these third parties has been collected with your consent or that these parties are otherwise legally permitted to disclose your Personal Information to us.  We might also obtain information through a partner, or co-create datasets with a partner, as part of our business operations.  This kind of data is used for work like improving the Platform and other CyberWave Services, enhancing existing products and developing new capabilities and features.  In some cases we combine Personal Information about individuals that we receive from multiple sources, including directly collected from you or through your use of the Platform. Automatically as you navigate through the Platform or during the time in which you utilize our Services.  We collect information about how you interact with the Platform through the use of cookies, pixel tags, and similar technologies.  Please view our separate Cookies Policy for more information on our use of cookies and similar technologies, how you can manage cookies and how we respond to Do Not Track signals.

3. How CyberWave Uses Personal Information It Collects About You and the Purposes for the Collection and Use

We use Personal Information that we collect about you or that you provide to us for the following purposes:

For Functionality and Development of the Platform and CyberWave Services. We use information to provide, offer, and personalize the Platform and other CyberWave Services provided to you.  Some information, like your IP address, is used to communicate with your device to provide network connectivity, measure usage levels of the Platform, diagnose server problems and provide security features.  Other business purposes that depend on use of your information include data analysis related to testing, modifying, improving or developing new products, services and technologies, and to identify trends.   We use cookies to make our websites and the Platform operate, work more efficiently, and provide analytic information.  Technologies similar to cookies, such as pixel tags are also used in connection with the Platform. For more information on our use of cookies, please read our Cookies Policy. For Customer Support, Platform Updating and Reporting. The Platform may use information to provide CyberWave with updates and reports, and to check that the Platform is working properly.  Update functions may automatically check your system to see whether files need to be refreshed, updated, or modernized, in order to provide you with the up-to-date security, versions, features, options and controls associated with your systems or devices.  We rely on information to analyze performance and improve and maintain the Platform.  We also rely on Personal Information you provide to us to provide you with customer support for the Platform and other CyberWave Services, and to verify eligibility for promotional offers. For Business Operations. We use information to operate our business; for example, to perform accounting, auditing, billing, reconciliation, and collection activities. Other business purposes that depend on use of your Personal Information include crime or fraud monitoring and prevention, protecting our legal rights, and performing contractual obligations.  We also use Personal Information to contact you to advertise, market and sell CyberWave Services in accordance with your communications preferences. To Communicate. We use contact information to send messages; to provide CyberWave Services; to respond to customer service requests; to provide alerts such as security updates or changes in our policies or about subscriptions that are ending; and to send marketing or informational materials like newsletters or white papers, in accordance with your communication preferences.  We occasionally conduct surveys, or do focused research or studies which may require you to voluntarily share Personal Information in order to participate.  These activities typically have additional notices that provide more information about the use of your Personal Information and to which you may be asked to consent. For Advertising and Marketing. We may use Personal Information collected from you, combined with information about what advertisements you viewed and other information we collect, to enable us to provide personalized content and to study the effectiveness of advertising and marketing campaigns.  You may choose whether to allow or deny uses or sharing of your device’s location by changing your device settings, but if you choose to deny such uses or sharing, we may not be able to provide you with certain personalized CyberWave Services and content on the Platform. For Statistical Purposes to Improve the Platform. We may compile Platform statistics into traffic reports, which help CyberWave understand, anticipate, and respond to user needs.  If we learn, for example, of heightened interest in certain aspects of the CyberWave Platform, we are likely to highlight that information on the Platform home page. This Information helps us create a better overall experience for Platform users.

RETENTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION: We will only retain your Personal Information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements and for other purposes described in this Privacy Policy.  We may retain your Personal Information for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you. To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the Personal Information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your Personal Information, the purposes for which we process your Personal Information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.  In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see “YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS” below for further information.  And in some circumstances we will anonymize your Personal Information (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

4. How CyberWave Protects Your Information

The Platform is designed to provide reasonable and appropriate administrative, technical and organizational security measures to protect your Personal Information against risks such as temporary or permanent loss, destruction, and unauthorized or unlawful access, alteration, use or disclosure.  We require our suppliers and vendors to apply similar protections when they access or use Personal Information that we share with them.  Users of the Platform must also do their part in protecting the data, systems, networks, and service they are utilizing.  No technology, data transmission or system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.  If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that your password to any CyberWave account has been compromised), please immediately notify us by contacting us using the instructions in the “HOW TO CONTACT US” section below.

5. When CyberWave Shares Your Information

We work through our affiliates to provide the Platform and other CyberWave Services.  We also work with authorized suppliers and business partners.  When we share your Personal Information with these companies, we put in place appropriate measures to limit the use of your information only for legal and authorized purposes that are consistent with this Privacy Policy, as well as appropriate confidentiality and security measures. We also share information with third parties when required by law or to respond to legal process; to protect our customers; to protect lives; to maintain the security of the Platform; and to protect our legal rights. 

We may disclose Personal Information that we collect or you provide as described in this Privacy Policy:

With Affiliates and Subsidiaries. For purposes limited to and consistent with this Privacy Policy.

With Suppliers. Our authorized vendors and suppliers may require Personal Information to provide services we have contracted for, such as product delivery, website hosting, data analysis, IT services, auditing, or customer service.  We use a wide variety of software and tools at CyberWave, and we process Personal Information using these tools as a regular course of business.  Our contracts with suppliers and vendors include provisions to protect your Personal Information and limit its use.

With Partners. We occasionally have relationships with third parties that are not suppliers or vendors but are working with us to offer certain opportunities such as marketing and similar promotions, to enable joint products or research studies, or to facilitate services on the Platform.  In these cases, additional terms or Privacy Policies may be provided.  For third parties or uses not described in this Privacy Policy, we share your information only with a lawful basis to do so. For Connections to Social Networks and Third Party Services. Where you are using our Services and have chosen to connect your social networks profiles to the CyberWave Services, or if you authorize a third party service to access your account, you are agreeing to provide information about you to the social networks and the third party services under their respective terms and privacy policies. For example, if you choose to connect your YouTube account to the CyberWave Services, this connection uses YouTube’s API services, and the Google Privacy Policy (located here) will apply to you. If you have authorized us to access your information via the YouTube API services, in addition to our normal procedure for deleting stored data, you may revoke our access to your data via the Google security settings page, located here.

No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes.

Sales, Mergers & Acquisitions. We may disclose Personal Information as part of a contemplated or actual corporate transaction such as a reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets or stock (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings).

With Your Consent. CyberWave may disclose your Personal Information to any other person or entity where you consent to the disclosure. For information about how to decline our advertising and marketing, please see the section entitled "Your Choices & Rights" below.

CyberWave does not sell any of your Personal Information for monetary compensation.

6. Information From Children

We do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose Information from children under 16.  If we learn that we have collected the Personal Information of a child under 16—or the equivalent minimum age depending on the jurisdiction, such as 13 in the United States per the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act—we will take steps to delete the information as soon as possible.  If you are under 16, do not provide any Information about yourself to CyberWave, including your name, address, telephone number or email address. If you become aware that Information of a child under 16 years of age has been provided, please use one of the methods provided under the “HOW TO CONTACT US” section below.

7. Links to Other Websites and Services
