Pulsenotes Limited (“we” or “us”) take the privacy of your information very seriously. Our Privacy and Data Protection Policy is designed to tell you, the user of our website pulsenotes.com and any other services provided by us via and technology or media (the “Service”) about our practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal and other information about you or your business that may be provided via the or collected through other means such as an online form, email or telephone communication.

Pulsenotes Limited is registered under the Data Protection Act 1998 (the “Act”). The Act sets out a number of important principles that organisations must apply when processing personal data. For more information see https://ico.org.uk.
We aim to limit our interaction with your data wherever possible. We have a general policy relating to access to your data. We will generally seek only to access that data which is necessary in accordance with the privileges you have granted to the system. Automated processes may scan your data, but only for an explicit purpose to do with the provision of our service. When working with data that was originally collected by us, our processes may need to scan and manipulate the information in order to deliver our service to you.
We may collect and process the following personal information or data (information that can be uniquely identified with you) about you: certain information required to use the Service or any other services we offer, including the name and address of you and/or your business and/or your employees; e-mail address and a password; any correspondence between you and us; replies to any surveys or questionnaires that we may use for research purposes; details of your visits to the Service and the resources that you access; any information we may require from you when you report a problem or complaint.
We only collect such information when you choose to supply it to us. You do not have to supply any personal information to us but our Service may not be operable in practice without providing such data to us.
Information may also be gathered through the Service without you actively providing it, through the use of various technologies and methods such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and cookies. These methods do not collect or store personal information.
An IP address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider (ISP), so you can access the Internet. It is generally considered to be non-personally identifiable information, because in most cases an IP address can only be traced back to your ISP or the large company or organisation that provides your internet access (such as your employer if you are at work).
We use your IP address to diagnose problems with our server, report aggregate information, and determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to the Service, and to administer and improve the Service.
We may use this information to: ensure that the content of the Service is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer and customise the Service to your preferences; assist in making general improvements to the Service; carry out and administer any obligations arising from any agreements entered into between you and us; allow you to participate in features of the Service; contact you and notify you about changes to the Service (except where you have asked us not to do this); collect payments from you; analyse how users are making use of the Service and for internal marketing and research purposes.
We do not disclose any information you provide via the Service to any third parties except: If we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation (for example, if required to do so by a court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime); in order to enforce any terms of use that apply to the Service, or to enforce any other terms and conditions or agreements for our services that may apply; we may transfer your personal information to a third party as part of a sale of some or all of our business and assets to any third party or as part of any business restructuring or reorganisation, but we will take steps with the aim of ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected; to protect the rights, property, or safety of Pulsenotes Limited, our Service’s users, or any other third parties. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
Other than as set out above, we shall not disclose any of your personal information unless you give us permission to do so.
In order to safeguard the information we collect from you we will take all reasonable steps to ensure that: our servers are protected by security mechanisms and can only be administered via strictly controlled public/ private cryptographic keys; our data processing storage facilities are sited in secure locations to prevent unauthorised access.

We may also share information with other equivalent national bodies, which may be located in countries worldwide. These countries may not have similar data protection laws to the UK. If we transfer your information outside of the EU in this way, we will take steps with the aim of ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected as outlined in this privacy policy.
If you use the Service while you are outside the EU, your information may be transferred outside the EU in order to provide you with those services.
