As a Salesforce Consulting Partner, we understand the critical importance of data protection, especially when handling sensitive business and customer data within Salesforce environments.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information in connection with our Salesforce consulting services, website, and other business operations.

c. Information We Process on Behalf of Our Clients (as a Data Processor):
When we provide Salesforce consulting, implementation, customisation, or support services, we may access or process personal data stored within your Salesforce instance. In such cases, [Your Company Name] acts as a data processor, and our clients are the data controllers. Our access to and processing of such data is strictly governed by the terms of our service agreements and any applicable Data Processing Addendums (DPAs) with our clients. We do not use this data for our own purposes or disclose it to third parties, except as instructed by our clients or required by law.

3. How We Share Your Information
We may share your personal information with third parties in the following circumstances:
With Service Providers: We engage trusted third-party service providers to perform functions on our behalf, such as hosting, payment processing, analytics, marketing automation, and CRM services. These providers are obligated to protect your information and use it only for the purposes for which it was shared.
With Salesforce: As a Salesforce Consulting Partner, we may share certain client information with Salesforce for purposes related to partnership management, joint marketing efforts, or as required for service delivery (e.g., logging support cases).
For Legal Reasons: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court order or government agency).
In Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email and/or a prominent notice on our website of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information.
With Your Consent: We may share your information with other third parties when we have your explicit consent to do so.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
4. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:
Encryption: Using encryption for data in transit and at rest where appropriate.
Access Controls: Restricting access to personal information to authorised personnel only.
Regular Security Audits: Conducting periodic reviews of our security practices.
Employee Training: Educating our employees on data protection best practices.
While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
5. Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
For client data processed within Salesforce instances, data retention is primarily governed by our agreements with our clients (the data controllers).
