We collect personal data via the hosting of our applications installed on our client networks. For example, where a client has procured our cloud-based telephony services then we will capture contact numbers, content of the call, time and date of the call.

We fulfil our processor responsibilities as per our processor obligations and do not make any decisions on the means or purposes of processing. It is the responsibility of the data controller to provide privacy information at the point of data capture.

  • During the order process, we store your personal details on Salesforce and Lightning Force cloud-based system.

They may be disciplined, or their contract terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.

If you are using a Telappliant service on a device or account issued to you by your employer or another organisation, that company likely has its own policies regarding storage, access, modification, deletion, and retention of communications and content which may apply to your use of any Telappliant services. Content that would otherwise be considered private to you or to a limited group of people may, in some cases, be accessible by your account owner or administrator. Please check with your employer or account administrator about the policies in place regarding your communications.
