Collection, Use and Disclosure of Personal Information

It is the policy of DPSI to limit the collection and to safeguard the privacy of personal information collected or maintained by DPSI.

DPSI follows these principles in collecting and managing personal information:

  •  We collect personal information on individuals only as allowed by law. We limit the collection of personal information to what is relevant and necessary to accomplish a lawful purpose of DPSI.  DPSI and its affiliates in the United States may receive personal data from individuals in the European Economic Area.
  • We collect your first and last name and general contact information, such as phone number and job title associated with your business. We use this information to respond to your request for our services, an estimated quote for our services, or to respond to your general inquiries concerning our products and services.
  • We collect information related to your business, including the type of business, how our services can assist you, and when you expect to implement our services.

  • We collect information regarding the products and services you purchase from us, account history, payment information, credit information, to establish a credit line, and date and location of purchases. We use this information to provide customer service, process your order, undertake activities to improve our products and services
  • We collect e-mail addresses to fulfill Marketing Material Requests. We use an individual’s email address to send them marketing materials (e.g., newsletters, promotions and/or sharing content). They may subscribe or unsubscribe at any time. We will not give or sell email addresses to third parties.
  •  We do not collect home, business, or account information from persons who simply browse our website. DPSI only collects personal information about individuals through our website if an individual provides such information to DPSI voluntarily.

You can choose not to have your data used by Google Analytics by downloading their opt-out browser add-on.  We also use other third-party applications to track visitors to our website and their engagement history and activities while there.
  •  We use session cookies on our website. Whenever someone visits our website, a small piece of information called a cookie can be sent to their computer. The main purpose of a cookie is to identify and customize webpages for them. For example, cookies are used by some sites to greet you personally, to post a list of your favorite books to purchase, to remember what you had in your shopping basket the last time you visited. We may place and later retrieve cookies that identify you and your computer to our website. Cookies do not contain personal or confidential information about you and will only be used to monitor activity on our website.
  • We strive in each instance to tell people who provide personal information to DPSI the purpose for which the information is collected. At the time of collection, we also strive to tell persons who are asked to provide personal information about the general uses that we may make of that information.
  • DPSI’s Use of Your Personal Data.  DPSI may use your personal data for its business purposes, such as: to respond to your requests for information, products, services; to provide you with marketing communications and offers for products and services; if you have a business or professional relationship with DPSI, to further develop our business relationship with you; if you apply for a job via our career center, to consider you for employment; to anonymize data so that it is no longer personal data, as may be defined by applicable law; and for other everyday business purposes, such as payment processing and financial account management, product development, contract management, website administration, fulfilment, analytics, fraud prevention, corporate governance, reporting, and legal compliance.
  • We use information security safeguards. We take reasonable precautions to protect the personal information collected or maintained by DPSI against loss, unauthorized access, and illegal use or disclosure. DPSI uses encryption to protect the security of individuals’ personal information during transmission of such information through DPSI’s website. Such personal information is stored by DPSI in secure locations. DPSI’s staff is trained on procedures for the management of personal information, including limitations on the release of information. Access to personal information is limited to those members of DPSI’s staff whose work requires such access. Confidential information is destroyed according to the DPSI’s records retention schedule.

You can also limit the communications that DPSI may send to you by following a simple opt-out process.

How to Exercise Your Rights

Company will respond to requests in accordance with applicable law if it can verify the identity of the individual submitting the request. California Consumers can exercise their rights in the following ways

Requests By Authorized Agents

You can have an authorized agent submit a CCPA request to us on your behalf by (a) providing us with a written authorization signed by you that designates the agent as your authorized agent for purposes of a CCPA request; (b) verifying your identity directly with us; and (c) directly confirming with us that the agent is authorized to submit the request.

How We Will Verify Your Requests

To prevent anyone other than you, or your authorized agent, from exercising the right to know or the right to delete with respect to your personal information, we follow procedures to verify your, or your agent’s, identity.  These procedures seek to confirm that the person making a request is the person about whom we have collected personal information or that person’s authorized agent.  The verification procedures involve matching data points that you provide with your request against information about you we already have in our records and that we have determined to be reliable for purposes of verifying your identity.  We will use information you provide in your completed request form to verify your identity, and we may request additional information if necessary to complete the verification process.

Additional Rights Under California Law

California Consumers have the right not to be subject to discriminatory treatment by Company for exercising their privacy rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, and Company will not discriminate on that basis.

However, we will take the security measures described in this Privacy Policy Statement in an effort to keep your data secure. By using the DPSI website, you consent to the collection, storage, and processing of your data in the United States and in any country to which we may transfer your data in the course of our business operations.
