  • When user registers with SkyFex, he or she will be asked for his or her name, e-mail address, company, location and other information. Once user has registered with SkyFex and signed in to SkyFex services, the user is not anonymous to SkyFex anymore.
  • SkyFex also automatically receives and records information from user's browser including IP address, browser version, SkyFex cookie information and the pages requested. This information is collected exclusively for general service usage statistics and is anonymized.
  • SkyFex may use the information for several purposes including but not limited to: customizing the advertising and content user sees, fulfilling user's requests for certain products and services, and contacting user with specials and new products.
  • SkyFex routinely time-stamps and logs events (like features used, number of participants, length of SkyFex sessions.) This data is used for accounting/billing purposes as well as for performance tuning and optimization of the SkyFex services.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

  • In general SkyFex will not share its customers Individual Identifying Information with anyone.
  • SkyFex may only send Individual Identifying Information about its customers to other parties in the following cases:
    • SkyFex has user's consent to share the information;
    • SkyFex needs to share user information to provide the product or service user has requested;
    • SkyFex needs to send the information to companies who work on behalf of SkyFex to provide a product or service to SkyFex customer. (Unless otherwise said, these companies do not have any right to use the Individual Identifying Information SkyFex provides to them beyond what is necessary to assist SkyFex.);
    • SkyFex responds to subpoenas, court orders or legal process;
    • SkyFex finds that user's actions violate SkyFex Terms of Service or other SkyFex usage guidelines for specific products or services.

Security

SkyFex sessions take place within context of SkyFex proprietary switched communications environment. With SkyFex, any session information (such as applications, chat, polling data, documents, video, and voice) provided by participants within a session is never saved on the SkyFex switching platform but is instead instantly switched between session participants. The SkyFex switching environment is architected similarly to the telephone switching environment; once the call is over all remnants of the content of that call dissipate, leaving only a record that a call took place. Further, the only means to participate in a meeting is through the SkyFex invitation and join process; SkyFex employees can therefore only participate in SkyFex customer sessions when expressly permitted by SkyFex customer.
  • Customer's SkyFex Account Information is password-protected for your privacy and security.
  • In certain areas SkyFex uses industry-standard SSL-encryption to protect data transmissions.
  • In other areas SkyFex uses proprietary security methods to protect data transmissions.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

If SkyFex changes any of its policies or practices, the updated documents will be published on the website.
