A privacy policy is a statement or a legal document (in privacy law) that discloses some or all of the ways a party gathers, uses, discloses, and manages a customer or client’s data. It fulfills a legal requirement to protect a customer or client’s privacy.
Libresoft (Ireland) Limited (“We”, “Us”, “Our”, “the Company”), needs to gather and use certain information about individuals.
These can include prospects, customers, suppliers, business contacts, employees and other people the organisation has a relationship with or may need to contact.
We pay particular attention to the data on staff and students that is supplied to Us by schools, who are the Data Controllers of this data.
We are the data controller for website-visitor, marketing and customer account and billing data, and a data processor (GDPR Article 28) for the school/pupil data entered into our applications; that processing is governed by the Data Processing Agreement with the school.
We take data protection and privacy very seriously and this policy describes how we collect, handle and store information to meet the Company’s data protection standards, and to comply with the law.
GDPR legislation determines how organisations — including Us — must collect, handle and store personal information, and our privacy policy embodies the following key principles; (a) Lawfulness, fairness and transparency, (b) Purpose limitation, (c) Data minimisation, (d) Accuracy, (e) Storage limitation, (f) Integrity and confidence, (g) Accountability.
