Privacy policy

Last updated 18 January 2024 NZT TABLE OF CONTENTS

​
INTRODUCTION

WayBeyond Limited and its subsidiaries (we, us, our) comply with the New Zealand Privacy Act 2000 (the Act) and the General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union (GDPR) when dealing with personal information.  Personal information is information about an identifiable individual (a natural person). If you are based in the European Union (EU) and use our website and related services, the additional terms in the GDPR addendum to this privacy policy (Addendum) applies to you. This policy does not limit or exclude any of your rights under the Act.  If you wish to seek further information on the Act, see www.privacy.org.nz.  For further information on the GDPR, see ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection_en. This privacy policy was drafted with brevity and clarity in mind.  It does not provide exhaustive detail of all aspects of our collection and use of personal information.  However, we are happy to provide any additional information or explanation needed.  Any request for further information should be sent to marketing@waybeyond.io.

​
OUR OVERRIDING DATA PRINCIPLE

We are committed to respecting and protecting your privacy. All data related to a WayBeyond reseller’s business or a WayBeyond customer’s business is owned by the relevant reseller or the customer respectively – it is not WayBeyond’s. WayBeyond separates data into two categories - Account and Marketing Data and Analytical Data.
  • Account and Marketing Data is personal information that can identify individuals and is the principal subject of this Privacy Policy. Account and Marketing Data includes data we collect from visitors to our website, our resellers and customers and other persons with whom we deal with directly.
  • Analytical Data relates to the data collected, stored and processed by WayBeyond as to the operation of our customers’ businesses and may include data from devices that monitor and manage our customers’ operations and the location and the size of those operations. Agricultural Data is used by WayBeyond to:
  • support the operations of our customers’ businesses
  • assist WayBeyond in the development of its products and services, and
  • include data on an anonymised and aggregated basis into WayBeyond’s services.

​
WHEN DOES THIS PRIVACY POLICY APPLY

This privacy policy applies to Account and Marketing Data. For the purposes of the GDPR, to the extent Analytical Data includes personal information, our customers are the data controller when storing or otherwise processing that information and we are the data processor.  Our customers determine what and how they collect, use, disclose and transfer Analytical Data.  This means our customers’ collection and use of personal information included in Analytical Data is governed by their privacy policy and practices, not ours. We only process Analytical Data as authorised by our customers.  Unless required otherwise under applicable law, if we receive any request or enquiry relating to Analytical Data, we will forward this request to our relevant customer. The remainder of this privacy policy does not apply to Analytical Data.

​
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may change this policy by uploading a revised policy onto the website.  The change will apply from the date that we upload the revised policy. This policy was last updated on 18 January 2024  to align with the latest legislative changes.

​
WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT

Directly from you We collect the following information directly from you:
  • profile data – e.g. your name, address, phone number, email address, date of birth etc
  • enquiry data – e.g. information contained in any enquiry you submit to us regarding our goods or services, call us, meet us in person or otherwise contact us
  • account data - e.g. your name and email address
  • service data – e.g. information collected in the course of the use of our services
  • transaction data – e.g. your purchase history and other information relating to transactions made through the website. If you provide your credit card information to us over the phone, we only collect that credit card information where you have freely provided it to process a one-off transaction and once it is complete, we shred any such credit card information.  If we send you a link to provide your credit card information, in this situation we use a third party service provider to process credit card transactions and we do not have access to your credit card information.  The name of this third party provider will generally be displayed when you are requested to enter your credit card information.  You can see further information about how they process your credit card information in their privacy policy.
  • notification data – e.g. information you provide to us for the purposes of subscribing to our notifications or newsletters.
Some personal information that we collect directly from you may be mandatory and some may be optional.  We will let you know which of these applies at the time we collect the relevant personal information.  While you do not have to provide us with some information we may request, this might mean that our products and services may not perform as well as they should, or that we may not be able to provide some parts of the website or all of our products or services to you.  If you require further information about the consequences of not providing us with any information, please contact us at marketing@waybeyond.io. Automatically when you use our website When you access and use our website and related services, we may automatically collect information about your device and usage of our website and services, including your IP address, operating system and browser type (Device and Usage Data).  Some of this Device and Usage Data is collected through third party tools and/or the use of cookies, web beacons and similar storage technologies. From third party sources Where possible, we collect personal information from you directly.  However, sometimes we may collect personal information about you:
  • from our third party business partners
  • that is publicly available (e.g. through Facebook profiles or public directories)
  • from third parties where you have authorised this.
We may combine the personal information about you that we receive from third parties with the personal information we collect from you directly or with Device and Usage Data.

​

  • we use profile data and usage data to verify your identity
  • we use profile data to provide services and products to you
  • we use account data, enquiry data and notification data to market our services and products to you, including contacting you electronically (e.g. by text or email for this purpose) that you may choose (or “opt in”) to receive. You can stop receiving our promotional emails by following the unsubscribe instructions included in those emails.
  • we use service data to improve the services and products that we provide to you
  • we use profile data to undertake credit checks of you (if necessary)

We may also use personal information to:

  • for any other purpose authorised by you, the Act or other applicable law.

​
DISCLOSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

  • professional advisers e.g. accountants, lawyers or auditors

A business that supports our services and products may be located outside New Zealand (the country where we are incorporated) and also outside of the country where you are located.  This may mean the personal information that we collect may be transferred to, and stored in, a country outside New Zealand and the country where you are located.  Please see the GDPR Addendum for further information about personal data transfers from the EU.

​
PROTECTING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will take reasonable steps to keep your personal information safe from loss, unauthorised activity, or other misuse.  We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to risks inherent in processing personal information. You play an important role in keeping your personal information secure by maintaining the confidentiality of any password and accounts used in relation to our products and services.  You should not disclose your password to third parties.  Please notify us immediately if there is any unauthorised use of your account or any other breach of security.

​
ACCESSING AND CORRECTING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Subject to certain grounds for refusal under applicable law, you have the right to access your readily retrievable personal information that we hold and to request a correction to your personal information.  Before you exercise this right, we will need evidence to confirm that you are the individual to whom the personal information relates. In respect of a request for correction, if we think the correction is reasonable and we are reasonably able to change the personal information, we will make the correction.  If we do not make the correction, we will take reasonable steps to note on the personal information that you requested the correction. If you want to exercise either of the above rights, email us at marketing@waybeyond.io.  Your email should provide evidence of who you are and set out the details of your request (e.g. the personal information, or the correction, that you are requesting). Subject to applicable law, we may charge you our reasonable costs of providing to you copies of your personal information or correcting that information.

​
OTHER RIGHTS

In addition to the rights to access and correct your personal information, if you are based in the European Economic Area, you have the additional rights set out in the GDPR Addendum.

​
INTERNET USE

While we take reasonable steps to maintain secure internet connections, if you provide us with personal information over the internet, the provision of that information is at your own risk. If you follow a link on our website to another website, the owner of that website will have its own privacy policy relating to your personal information.  We suggest you review that website’s privacy policy before you provide personal information.

LAWFUL BASIS FOR PROCESSING PERSONAL DATA
The personal data we may process consists of the personal information described in our privacy policy.  This personal data may be processed for the purposes outlined in our privacy policy. Generally, we collect personal information from you where we have your consent , where that processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, or where processing is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests (except where such interests are overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms). Where we process personal information based on your consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time. Despite the above, we may process any of your personal data where such processing is necessary for compliance with applicable laws. If you have any question about the legal basis on which we process personal information or need further information, please contact us here: marketing@waybeyond.io. Your rights in relation to your personal data include:
  • right of access - if you ask us, we will confirm whether we are processing your personal data and provide you with a copy of that personal data.
  • right to rectification - if the personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to have it rectified or completed. We will take reasonable steps to ensure inaccurate personal data is rectified.  If we have shared your personal data with any third party, we will tell them about the rectification where possible.
  • right to erasure - where your personal data is no longer needed for the purposes for which you provided it, we delete your personal data when it.  You may request that we delete your personal data and we will do so if deletion does not contravene any applicable law.  If we have shared your personal data with any third party, we will take reasonable steps to inform those third parties that they must delete your personal data.
  • right to withdraw consent - if the basis of our processing of your personal data is consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time.

  • right to object to processing - you may request that we stop processing your personal data at any time and we will do so to the extent required by the GDPR.
  • rights related to autonomous decision-making, including profiling – you have a right to not be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including processing, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you, except where such automated decision-making is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract with you, is authorised by applicable laws or is based on your explicit consent. We do not conduct automated decision-making or profiling.
  • right to data portability - you may obtain your personal data from us that you have consented to give us or that is necessary to perform a contract with you. We will provide this personal data in a commonly used, machine-readable and interoperable format to enable data portability to another data controller.  Where technically feasible, and at your request, we will transmit your personal data directly to another data controller.
  • the right to complain to a supervisory authority - you can report any concerns you have about our privacy practices to your local data protection supervisory authority.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA
Your personal data we collect may be transferred, and stored, outside the European Economic Area (EEA).  Under the GDPR, the transfer of personal data to a country outside the EEA may take place where the European Commission has decided that the country ensures an adequate level of protection.  In the absence of an adequacy decision, we may transfer personal data provided appropriate safeguards are in place. Where we transfer personal information outside the EEA, it will only be transferred to countries that have been identified as providing adequate protection for EEA personal data, or to a third party where approved transfer mechanisms are in place to protect your personal data (e.g. to organisations in the United States under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield framework or by entering into the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.  For further information, please contact us at marketing@waybeyond.io. Some of the personal data we collect is processed in New Zealand (where our registered office is located).  New Zealand is recognised by the European Commission as a country that ensures an adequate level of data protection and we rely on this decision in transferring personal data to New Zealand.
DATA RETENTION POLICY
Personal data that we collect and process will not be kept longer than necessary for the purposes for which it is collected, or for the duration required for compliance with applicable law, whichever is longer.
