It is important to note that this privacy policy covers the processing of business data only, and not personal data. Personal data refers to information that is related to an identifiable individual. This may include information such as name, address, contact details, and other identifying information. Personal data is typically used to identify, contact, or locate an individual, or to provide personalized services to that individual.

Business data is typically used to understand the performance of the business, make informed decisions, and improve operations.

The main difference between personal data and business data is that personal data is related to individuals, while business data is related to the operations of a business.

How do we store your data?

NEXTBILL stores your data in a secure third-party facility. Our databases are protected from general employee access, both physically and logically. We store a salted digest for your password so that it cannot be recovered even by NEXTBILL. All backup storage devices are encrypted.

NEXTBILL uses a combination of firewall barriers, encryption techniques and authentication procedures, among others, to maintain your online session's security and protect accounts and systems from unauthorised access. When you register for our products and services, NEXTBILLrequires you to set a password for your privacy and security. To access your account, we also generate a pseudonymous username to protect your privacy.

From the time you submit your login information, including your username and password, the communication between your device and NEXTBILL is encrypted using secure socket layer (SSL) technology. SSL enables you and our systems to communicate in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering and message forgery. In addition, SL encryption protects data transmissions between your browser and NEXTBILL's servers, such as your registration information for our products and services and your account credentials.

NEXTBILL will keep your business information and transaction data until it is no longer necessary to provide our products and services. This is a case-by-case determination that depends on the nature of the data, why it is collected and processed, and relevant legal or operational retention needs. NEXTBILL stores a transaction data and identifiable information related to those transactions separately. Once the case-by-case determination has been made, or upon your request to delete your data, whichever is earlier, we will delete your data by permanently expunging all identifiable information from NEXTBILL's primary production servers, and further access to your account will not be possible. As part of NEXTBILL's privacy by design strategy, we will also promptly disconnect any connection NEXTBILL had established to your account information and delete all account credentials.

Once this process is complete, anonymised data, consisting of aggregated data and any remaining transactional or other data that has been stripped of any identifiable information, may remain on NEXTBILL's production servers indefinitely.

Separately, in order to improve our product and services NEXTBILL shares pseudonymised andAnyonymised data derived from the data we collect from you. Data pseudonymisation is the process of replacing business information with a pseudonym or code. This makes it much harder for anyone who may see the data to identify the actual person behind the data. Pseudonymisationhelps to protect privacy while stil allowing the data to be used for research or analysis purposes.

Data anonymisation is the process of removing or obscuring personally identifiable information from a dataset so that the individuals represented in the data cannot be identified. This is typically open an Account done by replacing or removing any direct identifiers, such as names, addresses, or social security numbers, and aggregating or generalizing the remaining data so that it cannot be linked back to any specific individual. The purpose of data anonymisation is to protect the privacy and confidentiality of individuals while still allowing the data to be used for research, analysis, or other purposes. Anonymised data can be used to identify trends or patterns in a population without revealing any business information about the individuals in that population.NEXTBILL takes specific technological measures, such as salting and data masking, and organisational measures, such as restricting general employee access, to ensure that any anonymised or pseudonymised data cannot be attributed to a particular individual or business entity without requiring additional information.

[Your data may also remain on a backup server or other storage media. We keep these backups to ensure NEXTBILL's continued ability to provide our products and services in the event of malfunction or damage to NEXTBILL's primary production servers. NEXTBILL will also keep audit data on its servers to comply with our legal obligations.]

However, it is important to understand that these precautions apply only to NEXTBILL's products, services, websites and systems. While NEXTBILL will have contractual agreements with third parties around data security, we do not exercise any control over how your information is stored, maintained or displayed by third parties or on third-party sites.
