1. General information

This website is provided by the company Duco Consulting LTD, a business with headquarters in Canada that offers web-based transactional data analysis software (https://www.ducoconsulting.ca/ducoanalytics). We provide you with this data privacy policy to inform you of how we handle your personal data collected on this website.

2. Data controller

The controller under data protection law is:

Duco Analytics

Represented by Duco Consulting LTD.

3. Access and activity logs (“server logs”)

Each access to this website automatically causes general protocol data, so-called server logs, to be collected. As a rule, this data is a pseudonym and thus does not allow for inferences about the identity of an individual. Without this data, it would, in some cases, be technically impossible to deliver or display the contents of the software. In addition, processing this data is absolutely necessary under security aspects, in particular for access, input, transfer, and storage control. Furthermore, this anonymous information can be used for statistical purposes and for optimizing services and technology. In addition, the log files can be checked and analyzed retrospectively when the unlawful use of the software is suspected. Generally, data such as the domain name of the website, the web browser and web-browser version, the operating system, the IP address, as well as the timestamp of the access to the software is collected. The scope of this log process does not exceed the common log scope of any other site on the web. These access logs are stored for a period of up to 30 days. There is no right to object to this.

4. Error-Logs

Error logs are generated for the purpose of identifying and fixing bugs. This is absolutely necessary to ensure we can react as quickly as possible to possible problems with displaying and implementing content (legitimate interest). As a rule, this data is a pseudonym and thus does not allow for inferences about the identity of an individual. When an error message occurs, general data such as the domain name of the website, the web browser and web-browser version, the operating system, the IP address, as well as the timestamp upon the occurrence of the respective error message and/or specification is collected. These error logs are stored for a period of up to 30 days. There is no right to object to this.

5. Use of cookies

Cookies are used on parts of this website. They are small text files that are stored on the device with which you access this website. As a general rule, cookies serve the purpose of ensuring secure access to a website (“absolutely necessary”), implementing certain functionalities such as standard-language settings (“functional”), improving the user experience or the performance of the website (“performance”). Right to object: You can determine via your browser settings whether you allow or object to the use of cookies. Please note that deactivating cookies may result in limited or completely blocked functionalities of the website.

6. Use of third-party provider tools

In order to provide and continuously improve our services, we are using the services of the following third-party providers which may also process personal data. These third-party providers have been selected diligently and in line with the requirements of the Government of Canada.

7. Third-Party Integrations

If you choose to connect your Duco Analytics account to third-party integration, the third-party provider of this integration may receive certain relevant data about or from your customer’s account (including User Data), or share certain relevant data from your customer’s account on their service with our service, depending on the nature and purpose of such integration. Note that we do not receive or store your passwords for any of these third-party services (but do typically require your API key in order to integrate with them). You are responsible for entering into separate contractual agreements with such third-party data processors that require them to comply with obligations under the Data Protection Requirements. For the avoidance of doubt, such third-party data processors are not sub-processors. You have the option to remove the connection to our third-party integrations at any time in your Duco Analytics account, with the consequence that all collected data will be deleted from our database.
