The Nhype website or our services may provide you with access to other websites and services. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of any websites or services other than those provided by Nhype. We encourage you to read the privacy policies or statements of every such website and service. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by us.
Disclosure of Data
Except as set forth in this Privacy Policy, the Cookie Policy or as specifically authorized by a Nhype customer, we will not disclose any information to third parties.
Is the information collected through the Nhype Services secure?
We take precautions to protect the security of your information. We have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to help safeguard, prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use your information. However, neither people nor security systems are foolproof, including encryption systems. In addition, people can commit intentional crimes, make mistakes or fail to follow policies. Therefore, while we use reasonable efforts to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If applicable law imposes any non-disclaimable duty to protect your personal information, you agree that intentional misconduct will be the standards used to measure our compliance with that duty.
You can learn more about Nhype security by reading our Security Policy.
Transfer of Data
Information collected via our website, through direct interactions with you, or from use of our help desk services may be transferred from time to time to our offices or personnel, or to third parties, located throughout the world, and may be viewed and hosted anywhere in the world, including countries that may not have laws of general applicability regulating the use and transfer of such data. To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, by using any of the above, you voluntarily consent to the trans-border transfer and hosting of such information. Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ than those from your jurisdiction.
Retention of Data
Nhype will retain your Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.
We will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is generally retained for a shorter period, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for more extended time periods.
Your Data Protection Rights Under General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), you have certain data protection rights. Nhype aims to take reasonable steps to allow you to correct, amend, delete, or limit the use of your Personal Data.
Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy or the Data Processing Amendment, as applicable, we will only use personal information for the purposes described above, or as otherwise disclosed at the time we request such information from you. You must ‘opt-in’ and permit us to use your personal information for any other purpose. You may also change your preference and ‘opt out’ of receiving certain marketing communications from us by clicking the unsubscribe link included on the bottom of all such communications, or by contacting us via email hello[at]Nhype.com.
In certain circumstances, you have the following data protection rights:
- The right to access, update or to delete the information we have on you. – Whenever made possible, you can access, update or request deletion of your Personal Data directly within your account settings section. If you are unable to perform these actions yourself, please contact us at hello[at]nhype.com to assist you.
- The right of rectification. – You have the right to have your information rectified if that information is inaccurate or incomplete.
- The right to object. – You have the right to object to our processing of your Personal Data.
- The right of restriction. – You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal information.
- The right to data portability. – You have the right to be provided with a copy of the information we have on you in a structured, machine-readable and commonly used format.
- The right to withdraw consent. – You also have the right to withdraw your consent at any time where Nhype relied on your consent to process your personal information.
If you wish to be informed what Personal Data we hold about you and if you want it to be removed from our systems, please contact us.
To protect your privacy and security, we may take reasonable steps (such as requesting a unique password, ID, or other identification) to verify your identity before granting you access or making corrections. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your unique password and account information at all times.
You should be aware that it is not technologically possible to remove each and every record of the information you have provided to us from our system. The need to back up our systems to protect data from inadvertent loss means that a copy of your information may exist in a non-erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for us to locate. Promptly after receiving your request, all personal information stored in databases we actively use, and other readily searchable media will be updated, corrected, changed or deleted, as appropriate, as soon as and to the extent reasonable and technically practicable.
If you are an end user and wish to update, delete, or receive any information we have about you, you may do so by contacting the organization of which you are a customer.
‘Do Not Track’ Signals
We do not support Do Not Track (‘DNT’). Do Not Track is a preference you can set in your web browser to inform websites that you do not want to be tracked.
Integrity
To ensure integrity, all data transits are encrypted to align with best practices for protecting confidentiality and data integrity. E.g. all supplied information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology only to be accessible by those who are authorized to access such systems and who are required to keep the information confidential.
For data in transit, the Service uses industry-standard transport protocols between devices and datacenters and within datacenters themselves.
Confidentiality
All personnel are subject to full confidentiality and any subcontractors and subprocessors are required to sign a confidentiality agreement if not full confidentiality is part of the main agreement between the parties.
Whenever personal data is accessed by authorized personnel the access is only possible over an encrypted connection. When accessing the data in a database, the IP number of the person accessing the data must also be pre-authorized to obtain access.
If any personal data are temporarily stored on a device, the storage unit on the device must also be strongly encrypted.
On premise devices storing personal data temporarily is at all times, except when not being actively used or relocated under uninterrupted supervision, locked in a safe. Personal data are never stored on mobile media like USB sticks and DVD’s.
Isolation
All access to personal data is blocked by default, using a zero privileges policy. Access to personal data is restricted to individually authorized personnel. Nhype’s Security and Privacy Officer issues authorizations and maintains a log of granted authorizations. Authorized personnel are granted a minimum access on a need-to-have basis.
The ability to intervene
Nhype enables your rights of access, rectification, erasure, blocking and objection mainly by providing built-in functions for data handling in the Service Manager, by offering the option to send instructions through Nhype’s helpdesk and also by informing about and offering the customer the possibility of objection when Nhype is planning to implement changes to relevant practices and policies.
The overall responsibility for data security lies with Nhype’s Data Protection Officer who educates and updates all personnel on the data security measures outlined in Nhype’s security handbook and this Privacy Policy.
Monitoring
Nhype uses security reports to monitor access patterns and to proactively identify and mitigate potential threats. Administrative operations, including system access, are logged to provide an audit trail if unauthorized or accidental changes are made.
System performance and availability is monitored from both internal and external monitoring services.
Personal Data breach notification
In the event that your data is compromised, Nhype will notify you and competent Supervisory Authority(ies) within 72 hours by e-mail with information about the extent of the breach, affected data, any impact on the Service and Nhype’s action plan for measures to secure the data and limit any possible detrimental effect on the data subjects.
‘Personal data breach’ means a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed in connection with the provision of the Service.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time without notice. We will not make changes that result in significant additional uses or disclosures of your personal information without notifying you of such changes via e-mail. We may also make non-significant changes to this Privacy Policy that generally will not significantly affect our use of your personal information, for which an e-mail is not required. We encourage you to check this page periodically for any changes. If any non-significant changes to this Privacy Policy are unacceptable to you, you must immediately contact us and, until the issue is resolved, stop using the Nhype website and any services we provide.

Cooperation

Some cookies are required for technical reasons for our Websites to operate, and we refer to these as “essential’ or “strictly necessary’ cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Websites and Services. For example, Nhype keeps track of the Web sites and pages you visit within Nhype, to determine what portion of the Nhype Website or Services is the most popular or most used. This data is used to deliver customized content and promotions within the Nhype Website and Services to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area. Third parties serve cookies through our Websites for advertising, analytics and other purposes.

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that help us better manage the Website and Services by informing us what content is compelling. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages or in emails and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We use clear gifs or pixels in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. We tie the information gathered by clear gifs in emails to our customers’ Personal Information.
Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?
The Adobe Flash Player (and similar applications) use technology to remember settings, preferences, and usage similar to browser cookies but these are managed through a different interface than the one provided by your Web browser. This technology creates locally stored objects that are often referred to as “Flash cookies.’ Nhype does not use Flash cookies.
Log files
We collect non-personal information through our Internet log files, which record data such as browser types, domain names, and other anonymous statistical data involving the use of the Nhype services. This information may be used to analyze trends, to administer the Nhype services, to monitor the use of the Nhype services, and to gather general demographic information. We may link this information to personal information for these and other purposes such as personalizing your experience on the Nhypet services and evaluating the Nhype services in general.
Do you serve targeted advertising?
Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve ads through our Websites. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of ads. This can be accomplished by them using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The data collected through this process does not enable them or us to identify your name, contact details or other personally identifying details unless you choose to provide these.
How often will you update this Cookie Policy?
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please, therefore, re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

Security
LAST REVISED ON APRIL 24, 2018, EFFECTIVE AS OF MAY 25, 2019
We take security and privacy very seriously, and we adhere to enterprise-level security standards to keep our customer’s data protected.
Security Team
We have a globally distributed infrastructure and security team on-call 24/7. Our team is constantly monitoring security notifications from all 3rd party software libraries, and if identified, we immediately apply any relevant security patches as soon as they are released. Our engineers work together with the services teams to ensure that all of Nhype code and infrastructure follows a secure development lifecycle process.
Infrastructure
All of Nhype’s applications, websites, clients websites and data infrastructure is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS is a highly scalable cloud computing platform with end-to-end security and privacy features.
We have designed all our services with redundancy, fault tolerance and disaster recovery at the forefront. All our services are distributed across multiple separate availability zones (data centers). All our infrastructure is within a virtual private cloud (VPC) with production access restricted to operations support staff only; allowing Nhype to leverage complete firewall protection, private IP addresses, and other security features.
For more specific details regarding Amazon Web Services security, please refer to https://aws.amazon.com/security/.
Uptime
We strive for a 99.95% uptime across all our products and to support that, we deploy monitoring and logging systems outside of AWS. We employ a variety of tools to accurately monitor and report on any anomaly that could impact the delivery of Nhype services.
Data Centers
All Nhype data is securely stored in Amazon Web Services cloud infrastructure, managed in Amazon-controlled data centers. Only those within Amazon who have a legitimate business need to have such information know the actual location of these data centers. AWS data centers themselves are secured with a variety of physical controls to prevent unauthorized access.
Services
We use automated and manual analysis, as well as constantly review the security of 3rd party libraries, to ensure to the best of our abilities that we are delivering services that are free from security defects. All Nhype communications are PCI compliant and support TLS v1.2. We enforce the same level of encryption used by banks and financial institutions to make sure our customer’s information are safe.
Email Security
Nhype supports TLS encryption on all inbound and outbound emails. For an explanation of how email encryption works, we recommend this overview from Google.
Engineering and Operational Practices
We design all services with high availability in mind. To achieve this goal, we follow many engineering best practices
- Immutable infrastructure – We don’t make changes to live code or running servers in production. Where applicable, we treat both our services and our infrastructure configuration as code. Which means all changes go through a formal code review, automated testing and automated deployment process.
- Continuous integration and delivery – We are using continuous integration and deployment automation and configuration management tools to build, test and deploy code multiple times a day.
- Incident response – Our dedicated infrastructure and security team is on a rotating on-call schedule to respond to any security or availability incidents immediately.
