Triangle Networks Privacy Notice - Prospective Customer
Triangle Networks Ltd (“We”) are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679 is a comprehensive data protection law that replaces existing European privacy laws and strengthens the protection of personal data in an increasingly data driven world. The GDPR is enforceable in each EU member state and gives individuals greater control over their personal data. It comes into effect on 25 May 2018.
This privacy policy aims to give you information on how we collect and process your personal data through your use of our website and our products or services, including any data you may provide when you enter into a contracted service with us, sign up to use our products, or make a support or contact request.
It is important that you read this privacy policy together with any other privacy notice(s) or fair processing notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal data about you so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data. This privacy policy supplements our other notices and is not intended to override them.
If you have any questions about this privacy policy, including any requests to exercise your legal rights, please contact our data protection team using the details set out below.
