INFORMATION WE COLLECT
What Information We Collect or Process
TelTec Inc processes and in certain situations collects personal information as needed to deliver its Products and Services and manage its business. When collecting personal information, TelTec Inc does so in a reasonable and lawful manner.
The types of information and the purposes for which TelTec Inc collects or processes personal information may include:
Indirect End User Phone Contact Information (Personal Identifiable Information)
TelTec Inc acts as a data processor with regard to indirect end user personal identifiable information and our Clients act as the data controller of such data. In the course of TelTec Inc processing and protection of such data, all use will be in conformity with the data controller’s instructions.
Specifically, only when enabled via system permission on SNAPmobile Android and SNAPmobile iOS, TelTec Inc shows personal contacts within the respective application. When the user sends an SMS message to one of his/her phone contacts, or when the user initiates a call to one of his/her phone contacts, the phone number is sent securely through TelTec Inc’ API. TelTec Inc does not store this number with any other PII, and it cannot be directly or indirectly attributed to any person or persons; TelTec Inc stores only the phone number and pertinent metadata so as to be compliant with all applicable state and federal laws, and TelTec Inc does not share this data with any advertisers or third parties under any circumstances. A user can revoke phone contact access on his/her mobile device at any time, and his/her app experience is not hindered or interrupted.
SNAPmobile Android and iOS also uses Gravatar, only when enabled via Settings and UIConfigs, which is a service that provides avatar images linked to the MD5 hash of the user’s email address. This means that, only when Gravatar use is enabled, we hash each contact’s email address and send it to Gravatar to try and retrieve an avatar image. MD5 hashes cannot be directly or indirectly attributed to any person or persons, and we only send the MD5 hash to Gravatar, never the email address in plain text. As with phone contacts, a user can revoke Gravatar access at any time in Settings or via UIConfig, and his/her app experience is not hindered or interrupted.
CLIENTS
TelTec Inc uses such personal information only for relevant, appropriate, and customary purposes. TelTec Inc will not share or disclose personal information for purposes other than as described herein. Capitalized terms used in this Privacy Policy shall have the meaning as given in Client’s Master Services Agreement (MSA). The following are examples of some of the personal information TelTec Inc may process.

We will use such information for the purposes of providing Products and Services, support, conducting data analytics and product assessments and related activities, and providing information regarding TelTec Inc Products and Services.
Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI):

This may include but is not limited to the phone numbers that you call or send messages to (or the phone numbers that you receive these calls and messages from) through our Products and Services. The date, time and duration of the calls may also be collected. This data is used for billing and service level assurance.
TelTec Inc provides Products and Services that are primarily for the benefit of Clients and Subscribers in that TelTec Inc transmits, routes, switches or caches information.

TelTec Inc does not determine the purposes and means of processing this personal information. Except for Subscriber data provided by the Client (the Subscribers service provider) for which TelTec Inc is merely providing a conduit for transmission, the subscribed services are of such a nature that, in most instances, TelTec Inc requires and collects only essential CPNI and billing information; and opting out or declining to provide the requested data may hinder the provision or delivery of subscribed services. However, for CPNI data that is collected by TelTec Inc that is not subject to the control of others, TelTec Inc shall obtain consent from the user for the processing of this data.
TelTec Inc collects end-user CPNI in the course of providing Product support. This data may pertain to Clients of TelTec Inc or Subscribers (eg: end users of TelTec Inc’ direct Clients). This data may include IP address, telephone number, email address, call detail records, call recordings and other information sufficient to identify an individual end user.
Indirect End User’s CPNI:
TelTec Inc acts as a data processor with regard to indirect end user personal information and our Clients act as the data controller of such data. In the course of TelTec Inc’ processing and protection of such data, all use will be in conformity with the data controller’s instructions.
Direct End User’s CPNI:
TelTec Inc typically collects and processes direct end user (eg: Clients, vendors, and partners) personal information for the purposes of providing Products and Services, support, conducting data analytics and managing product performance.
Messaging, Voicemail, Video and Media Files:
TelTec Inc provides Products and Services that facilitate the recording and storage of audio and video by way of features such as but not limited to voicemail, call and conference recording. Users may elect to store or record personal information within these resources at their discretion.
Anonymized, Non-Identifying Voice and Traffic Data
TelTec Inc may use anonymized, non-identifying data collected from use of our SNAPsolution, SNAPvantage and other TelTec Inc Products and Services. This anonymized, non-identifying data may be used to enhance such items, but is not limited to, voice activation, improve traffic analysis algorithms and techniques, and recognition algorithms.
