Privacy Policy
Welcome to https://www.hyperchatsocial.com (the "Site"). This privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy") applies to the all services (the "Services"), owned and operated by Hello My Name Is, LLC dba Hyperchat Social ("Company", "Hyperchat Social," "we," "us," or "our"). We have created this Privacy Policy to tell you what information the Services collect, how we use that information, and who we will share that information with, if at all. This Privacy Policy does not address the privacy practices of any third parties that we do not own, control, or are affiliated with. Capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy will have the meaning set forth in our Terms of Use. By visiting and/or using our Services, you are agreeing to the terms of this Privacy Policy and the accompanying Terms of Use. We encourage you to read the Privacy Policy, and to use the information it contains to help you make informed decisions.
1.0 Overview
Confidential data is typically the data that holds the most value to a company. Often, confidential data is valuable to others as well, and thus can carry greater risk than general company data. For these reasons, it is good practice to dictate security standards that relate specifically to confidential data.
2.0 Purpose
The purpose of this
policy is to detail how confidential data should be handled. This policy lays
out standards for the use of confidential data and outlines specific security
controls to protect this data.
3.0 Scope
The scope of this
policy covers all company-confidential data, regardless of location. Also
covered by the policy are hard copies of company data, such as printouts, faxes,
notes, etc.
