This Privacy Statement applies to all Deepblue Technologies-owned websites and domains and the websites and domains of our wholly owned subsidiaries (“Deepblue Technologies website”), except that a privacy policy or statement posted on Deepblue Technologies websites specific to a particular Deepblue Technologies program or service will apply instead of this Privacy Statement.
Links to non-Deepblue Technologies websites
The Deepblue Technologies website may provide links to third-party websites for your convenience and information. If you access those links, you will leave the Deepblue Technologies website. Deepblue Technologies does not control those sites or their privacy practices, which may differ from Deepblue Technologies’s practices. We do not endorse or make any representations about third-party websites. The personal data you choose to provide to or that is collected by these third parties is not covered by the Deepblue Technologies Privacy Statement. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any company before submitting your personal information.
We may also provide social media features on our website that enable you to share Deepblue Technologies information with your social networks and to interact with Deepblue Technologies on various social media sites.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies and settings on the social media sites with which you interact to make sure you understand the information that could be shared by those sites.
2. Collection of personal information
To serve you better and understand your needs and interests, Deepblue Technologies collects, exports, and uses personal information with adequate notice and consent, along with required filings with data protection authorities, when applicable. For example, when you order products or services, request information, subscribe to marketing or support materials, register yourself or your Deepblue Technologies products, or apply for a job at Deepblue Technologies, we will ask you to provide personal information to complete these transactions. The types of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include contact information such as your name, address, telephone number, and email address; and other unique information such as user IDs and passwords, billing and transaction information, product and service preferences, contact preferences, educational and employment background, and job interest data.
If you post, comment or share personal information, including photographs, to any public forum on an Deepblue Technologies site, social network, blog, or other such forum, please be aware that any personal information you submit can be read, viewed, collected, or used by other users of these forums, and could be used to contact you, send you unsolicited messages, or for purposes that neither you nor Deepblue Technologies have control over. Deepblue Technologies is not responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these forums.
Deepblue Technologies also collects information from commercially available sources that it deems credible. Such information may include your name, address, email address and demographic data. The information Deepblue Technologies collects from its commercial sources may be used along with the information Deepblue Technologies collects when you visit Deepblue Technologies’s websites. For example, Deepblue Technologies may compare the geographic information acquired from commercial sources with the IP address collected by Automatic Data Collection Tools to derive your general geographic area.

The testimonials posted on our Web site are only posted with the expressed permission of the individual or company who provided that testimonial.
4. How we share your information
Deepblue Technologies will not sell, rent or lease your personal information to others except as described in this Statement. Deepblue Technologies shares personal information in the following ways:
Deepblue Technologies retains service providers and suppliers to deliver complete products, services and customer solutions and to assist Deepblue Technologies with marketing and communication initiatives. These providers and suppliers include, for example, credit card processors, providers of customer support and live-help, marketing, email service providers, automated data processors, and shipping agents. Suppliers and service providers are required by contract to keep confidential the information received on behalf of Deepblue Technologies and may not use it for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are performing for Deepblue Technologies.
From time to time, Deepblue Technologies participates in marketing initiatives with other companies, including websites “powered by” another company on behalf of Deepblue Technologies. As part of these initiatives, certain Deepblue Technologies services and marketing communications may be delivered at the same time as those from other companies. Some of these services and communications offer you the option to share personal information with both Deepblue Technologies and the other companies participating in these initiatives. For example, you may receive marketing communications from Deepblue Technologies and other companies or have the opportunity to register online for products from multiple companies. If you choose to provide personal information only to Deepblue Technologies, Deepblue Technologies will not share this information with the other companies participating in that marketing initiative. If you choose to provide personal information to the other companies, that personal information will be handled according to the privacy policy of those companies which may differ from Deepblue Technologies’s policies and practices.
Deepblue Technologies will require the export of your personal information to other Deepblue Technologies-owned business entities in Nigeria and Worldwide in accordance with this Statement to satisfy your request. Such export is a requirement of providing the information to Deepblue Technologies.
Circumstances may arise where, whether for strategic or other business reasons, Deepblue Technologies decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize businesses in some countries. Such a transaction may involve the disclosure of personal information to prospective or actual purchasers, or the receipt of it from sellers. It is Deepblue Technologies’s practice to seek appropriate protection for information in these types of transactions.
5. Keeping your personal information secure
Deepblue Technologies takes seriously the trust you place in us. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, to maintain data accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate use of the information, Deepblue Technologies utilizes appropriate physical, technical and administrative procedures to safeguard the information we collect.
When collecting or transferring sensitive information such as credit card information we use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. The personal information you provide us is stored on computer systems located in controlled facilities which have limited access. When we transmit highly confidential information (such as credit card number or password) over the internet, we protect it through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
6. Changes to this statement
If we change our privacy statement, we will post the revised statement here, with an updated revision date. If we make significant changes to our statement , we may also notify you by other means, such as sending an email or posting a notice on our home page.
