Whether you purchase products through DaySmart Software’s web site or via mail or phone, or which are delivered to you through the DaySmart Software Cloud website, any personal information that you may share with us (and with the business partners that help this site function or assist us in fulfilling your order) is kept absolutely private.

We maintain the data that you provide us, along with a record of your purchases, in a secure database.


Using Information We Collect

These cookies do not collect personal information such as your name, email address, postal address or telephone number


Our Business Partners

In order to supply, ship and track merchandise, we make your name and address available to our hardware suppliers and such companies as Dell Computers, BlueStar, United Parcel Service, Federal Express and the U.S. Postal Service. We provide these companies with only the information they need to supply merchandise that you have ordered and perform their services. We do not authorize these business affiliates to use your personal information for any other purpose. From time to time we provide the information to trusted partners who work on behalf of or with DaySmart Software Inc. under confidentiality agreements. These companies may use your personal information to communicate with you about offers from DaySmart and our marketing partners. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information with any other party. Except as stated above, neither your name nor anything about you is sold or shared with any other non-affiliated company or agency.


How We Use E-mail

When you provide us your email address, we may send you emails necessary to process your order or respond to a request.


Links to Other Sites

Occasionally, we provide links on our websites to other sites we think you will find useful in your business. These sites operate independently of DaySmart Software, Inc. and have established their own privacy and security policies. For the best online experience, we strongly encourage you to review these policies at any site you visit.


Cloud Services, Security, and Data Retention

It is our intent to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of information that we have collected from you. We use a variety of current technologies and processes for protection of our customer data. For example, we store the personal information we collect on computer systems with limited access, which are located in controlled facilities. When we transmit highly confidential information (such as a credit card number or password) over the Internet, we protect it through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

We permanently delete all personal information obtained in the course of delivery of products and services to you through the DaySmart Software Cloud website when you no longer subscribe to those products or services, after 90 days or immediately upon your request. We limit the information we provide to outside companies with whom we contract to only what they need to carry out their responsibilities. When you make a purchase or request a trial on our website, your transactional information is transmitted in a safe, encrypted format.


Privacy of Children on Our Web Site

Our web site is not intended for use by children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If a child has provided our web site with personally identifiable information, we ask that a parent or guardian call (248) 491-0200 and we will delete the information about the child from our files.

Specific Privacy Disclosures for the
European Economic Area

This section applies to data processing activities of data subjects residing in the European Economic Area as well as, regardless of residence, to the processing of any such data occurring in the European Economic Area.

“Personal Data,” for purposes of this section, means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

“Services” means any of our products, services, or deliverables.

“Site” means any website operated and controlled by us.

Pursuant to the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we function as a “processor” for the Services we offer to our customers . The scope of applicable data protections and processing for those Services are set forth in contractual agreements with our customers and are therefore not covered by this Privacy Notice.

In our controller role, we process certain Personal Data in order to maintain and provide the Services to our customers, such as this website, and our customer contact names, addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, and other contact information for designated customer representatives or personnel (“Customer Relationship Data”).  In addition, we may send marketing materials or communications to potential or existing customers (“Marketing Activities”).  For purposes of Customer Relationship Data and Marketing Activities, we function as a “controller.”  Our disclosures with respect to our processing of data as a controller are set forth in this section.


1. How We Collect and Use Personal Data

We collect data as described in the “Types of Personal Information We May Gather” section above.  We collect data when you submit it to us on our website or through other forms and when you make purchases (including subscriptions), renew your software license, and when we activate our software for you or service your account.  We also use third parties such as Google Analytics to provide customer analytics on our site.  In the future, we may also use third parties for our own advertising purposes to retarget ads to our site visitors


2. How We Disclose Personal Data

Our disclosure is limited to circumstances where we are permitted to do so under applicable European and national data protection laws and regulations.  We share data with companies as necessary to obtain CRM and cloud services and for order fulfillment whose practices are in line with GDPR.


3. Legal Basis for Processing

We collect and process your Personal Data for a variety of different purposes which are set out in further detail in this section.

In some cases, we will ask for your consent so that we may process your Personal Data.  However, in certain circumstances, applicable data protection laws allow us to process your Personal Data without needing to obtain your consent.

To comply with laws, regulators, court orders, or other legal obligations, or pursuant to legal process.

To operate our business and provide our Services (other than in performing our contractual obligations to you) for our “legitimate interests” and for the purposes of applicable law, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data.  Legitimate interests may include:


3.2. Consent For Processing

In cases where we are not already authorized to process the Personal Data under applicable law, we may ask for your consent to process your Personal Data, including:

We may ask for your consent for our partners or vendors to contact you by telephone, SMS, post and/or email about other offers, products, promotions, developments or Services which we think may be of interest to you and for other marketing purposes. For our own marketing, we will contact you about our Services when you voluntarily provide us your information on our Site.

Our Site uses cookies and similar technologies to improve user experience and for analytics. We use our own cookies for authentication and session management as well as to understand how our website is used.

We use third party cookies for analytics.  Specifically, we use Google Analytics to improve our site.  We do not use Google Analytics to personally identify you.  More information about Google’s services, including Google Analytics, can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

If you want to block or delete cookies, most major browsers will allow you to do this through settings.
