This privacy policy describes the information we collect, how we collect it, and how we use and share it in relation to our websites and product and service offerings.

Global Security is committed to protecting the privacy of visitors to their websites and users of their mobile applications. It is important that our users understand how we collect, use, and disclose personal information (as defined below). Global Security takes technical, administrative, and physical measures to protect the personal information we may collect.

Information Collection

In general, when you use our websites, services, and devices, you may be required to provide personal data such as:

  • Your name and/or your company name
  • Home or business address
  • Residential, business, or mobile phone numbers
  • Email address
  • Credit card, debit card, or other payment account number and related information
  • Your date of birth and/or social insurance number
  • Information about third parties listed in your emergency contact list
  • Your personal identification code

Some devices or services may collect additional information such as audio, video, or image recordings from your surveillance devices, geolocation information including the physical location of your devices using satellite signals, cell phone towers, or Wi-Fi signals. We may also collect event information such as arming and disarming your devices, motion detection, opening and closing of doors from door and window protection devices, water, smoke, and heat detection.

Your personal and non-personal data are collected in various ways in connection with our websites, services, and devices. In many cases, they are directly provided to us by you. For example, you may need to provide us with personal information in the following circumstances:

  • Subscribing to services or an account with us;
  • Activating your devices;
  • Subscribing to special offers from Global Security or third parties;
  • Submitting a paper form or transmitting information online or by phone;
  • Providing credit card data or other payment information;
  • Receiving our services, including speaking with sales agents, service technicians, and customer service and support centers (some may be recorded to ensure service quality and maintain an accurate record of our communications with you);
  • Visiting and interacting with our websites.

Use and Disclosure of Information

We use your information for our business purposes and to provide you with monitoring services. Your information may be shared with third-party service providers and emergency service providers to deliver or improve services. We may share your information for legal reasons, including to cooperate with law enforcement if we receive valid requests, to protect our rights, or in the event of a sale of all or part of our company.

We do not sell your information to third parties for their own commercial purposes. We may share your information with partners, service providers, dealers, distributors, agents, or subcontractors of Global Security engaged to perform services on its behalf (including authorized distributors of Global Security and third-party monitoring centers) to provide you with certain services and achieve our business goals as described above. Global Security will only share your personal information with third parties if it has contractually restricted the use or disclosure of the information to the necessity of performing services on our behalf or compliance with legal requirements. These companies may use your personal information but only within the scope of the services we entrust to them, unless you have authorized them to use it for other purposes. If you no longer wish to share your personal information for this purpose, we will provide you with the option to revoke such authorization.

To provide our services, we share your information with individuals designated in your contact list and third-party emergency services such as police, fire, and medical emergency services. We may also disclose your information for legal reasons to comply with a subpoena or court order or other similar legal process, to cooperate with law enforcement, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, safety, or that of others, to investigate fraud, or to respond to a government request. We may also transfer your information to a third party in the event of a reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or part of our business, stock, or assets.

Security of Your Personal Information

Global Security is committed to ensuring the security and integrity of personal information. Global Security has adopted reasonable physical, technical, and administrative procedures to ensure the protection of your personal information. However, due to the nature of Internet communications, we cannot guarantee or ensure that your transmissions are secure.

We retain your personal information as long as your account is active or for the period necessary to achieve the purposes outlined in this policy and as needed to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
