In addition, as part of your use of Motorola BACKUP and other services, you'll be uploading important personal information. Tarsin (Europe) Limited may collect other identifying information from you from time to time in order to furnish additional services that are explained when the information is requested. The Motorola BACKUP website is co-branded within the Motorola website look, but all PII information is collected by Tarsin (Europe) Limited and only with your opt in will we send any PII information to Motorola.

When you are asked for personal information by Tarsin (Europe) Limited, you are sharing that information with Tarsin (Europe) Limited, its subsidiaries and related companies. Additionally, if you utilise a cellular phone, pager or other device requiring service, your personal information may be collected by the manufacturer of the phone or other device and/or the provider of your service to facilitate your service arrangement with such third party and or Tarsin (Europe) Limited. Tarsin (Europe) Limited may also contract with third party companies to perform services for Tarsin (Europe) Limited on its website that require these companies to collect personal information (e.g. hosting a website sweepstakes, promotion or survey, or selling software downloads). While on the Motorola BACKUP website hosted by Tarsin (Europe) Limited, this privacy policy will govern all PII data collection. Motorola privacy policy will govern those links which take you to the Motorola website.

Our website may also contain various links to third-party websites. These sites may provide additional information, goods, services and/or promotions. These sites are owned and operated independently of Tarsin (Europe) Limited, and have their own separate privacy and data collection practices. Any information you provide to these websites will be governed under the terms of their privacy policy, if any. Tarsin (Europe) Limited has no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the independent actions or policies of these independent sites, and is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such sites.

Tarsin (Europe) Limited will not sell, share, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties other than as part of a sale of Tarsin (Europe) Limited or its business. In the case of the sale of Tarsin (Europe) Limited, we will endeavor to require the new owner to protect your collected personal information in accordance with Safe Harbor requirements. As required, Tarsin (Europe) Limited will transfer information to third parties which are either necessary to carry out the transactions pertaining to the customer or are necessary to facilitate general business practices such as to outside accounting, billing or delivery companies.

Cookies
Tarsin (Europe) Limited's web server logs collect the domain names of visitors to our websites. This information is aggregated to measure number of visits, average time spent on our website, pages viewed, etc. We use this information to measure the use of our site and to improve the content of our site. Like many other sites on the internet, Tarsin (Europe) Limited uses cookies and collects IP addresses in order to better facilitate the services provided to you, and to collect non-personal aggregate data for marketing research purposes. A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer tied to information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. We use two types of non-persistent, session ID cookies, which terminate when the browser is closed. The first, a non-persistent Single Sign-On (SSO) cookie in the browser's memory, is set whenever the user is authenticated during login. In subsequent transactions with protected pages, this SSO cookie identifies the user. The second cookie, another non-persistent cookie called the application session cookie, is set when the user accesses one of the services on the Tarsin (Europe) Limited website. This is again a non-persistent cookie that stores mapping for the session information. There is one application session cookie for each application accessed while logged onto the website. We do use one persistent cookie which enables us to provide a better user experience. This cookie is used to display a onetime message to the user.

Choice
Tarsin (Europe) Limited allows the customer to opt-out of or opt-in to certain uses of personal information. In certain instances Tarsin (Europe) Limited will provide an opportunity for you to opt-out of certain uses of you personal information when collected. Additionally, you may choose to opt-out at a later date effective as of that date. Please note that opting out may result in the inability of Tarsin (Europe) Limited to provide the requested service. From time to time, you may be offered an opportunity to opt-in to promotions or other programs provided by a third-party through Tarsin (Europe) Limited.

We will send you strictly service-related announcements on rare occasions when it is necessary to do so. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, we might send you an email. We will send out Billing SMS to billable users. Generally, you may not opt-out of these communications, which are not promotional in nature. If you do not wish to receive them, you have the option to deactivate your account.

Onward Transfer
Tarsin (Europe) Limited does not routinely disclose your personal information to any third parties. Tarsin (Europe) Limited will only transfer your personal information to third parties if:

  • The third party subscribes to the Safe Harbor or is subject to the Data Privacy Directive or another adequacy finding, or;
  • Tarsin (Europe) Limited has entered into a written agreement with the third party requiring that the third party provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the Safe Harbor principles, or;
  • Instructed to do so by you, or;
  • When it is required by law (e.g., in compliance with a subpoena or court order) or if we believe in good faith that such action is appropriate and necessary to protect and defend the rights of Tarsin (Europe) Limited, or to protect the safety of Tarsin (Europe) Limited's users and the general public. Because of the uncertain regulatory environment associated with privacy issues, we may also be forced to disclose personally identifiable and other information to a governmental authority.

Security
Tarsin (Europe) Limited is a global company and has users all over the world. When you give Tarsin (Europe) Limited personal information, that information may be sent electronically to servers outside of the country where you originally entered the information. In addition, that information may be used, stored and processed outside of the country where you entered that information. Whenever Tarsin (Europe) Limited handles personal information, regardless of where this occurs, it takes steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with the relevant Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy.

Tarsin (Europe) Limited uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology, one of the highest levels of security on the Internet. The SSL protocol provides server authentication, data integrity, and privacy on the Web. This security measure helps ensure that impostors, eavesdroppers, or vandals can not get your personal information. SSL not only encrypts your personal information transmitted but also verifies the identity of the server and that the original message arrives safely at its destination.

However, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, Tarsin (Europe) Limited cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our website, and therefore you use our site at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we use our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

Data Integrity
Tarsin (Europe) Limited processes personal information only in a way that is compatible with the purposes for which it was collected and/or authorised by the individual.

You can access your personal information on Motorola BACKUP at any time by going to http://www.motorolabackup.com. You must have your phone number and PIN Code. Tarsin (Europe) Limited reserves the right to take reasonable steps in compliance with your request except as may otherwise be allowed under law.

Child Privacy

No information should be submitted to or posted on this website by users under 13 years of age. If a child under the age of 13 submits personal information to this website, we delete the information as soon as we discover it and do not use it for any other purpose.
