We collect the e-mail addresses of those who communicate with us via e-mail, aggregate information on what pages consumers access or visit, and information volunteered by the consumer (such as survey information and/or site registrations). The information we collect is used to improve our Web pages’ content and the quality of our service and is not shared with or sold to other organizations for commercial purposes, except to provide products or services you’ve requested, when we have your permission. Such exceptions apply only to TCN clients and would be shared only with TCN partners handling Data Management or Accessibility options, or TCN clients or potential clients looking for references on services, etc. In such a case, your permission will be obtained before making your information available.

If you are a TCN client wishing to port telephony services off of the TCN platform, we would need to confirm your information with the Telephony service provider(s) you have engaged in taking over the applicable service. Incorrect validation information would not be confirmed.

Additionally, your information may be shared under the following circumstances:
It is necessary to provide information to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to any person’s physical safety, violations of Terms of Service of the specific application, or as otherwise required by law.

Data Storage & Third Party Transfer

TCN, Inc. uses its own equipment primarily and hosting. Still, for certain services, it uses third party vendors and hosting partners to provide the necessary hardware, software, networking, storage, and related technology required to run our services. Although TCN, Inc. owns the code, databases, and all rights to TCN, Inc. hosted applications, you retain all rights to your data. TCN, Inc. is potentially liable for onward transfers to third parties of EU or Swiss individuals’ personal data received according to Privacy Shield. TCN, Inc. only shares data with agent partners in providing contracted services for clients. TCN, Inc. does not share information with non-agent partners and does not expect to do so in the future. If this changes, individuals will be given an option for opting out of the sharing of their information with third parties.
