The hosted data are found in independent databases, guaranteeing reliability and watertightness, an anonymisation of information flows, as well as firewalls configured in the regime of semi-independent fortifications.

In addition to avoiding data loss, there is an own and audited backup service implemented in the E-goi service.

2. Commercial Communications

The DSSI establishes commercial relations in the field of information technology, mainly with other companies, establishing contacts at the level of existing commercial relations as well as new commercial relations.

DSSI being a Value Added Distributor, follows a channel model that implies the transmission of information with the Manufacturers that represents and with its Clients / Business Partners. Sometimes shares business information with third parties.

DATA SHARING WITH THIRD PARTIES

When a new business opportunity arises, this opportunity may have to be shared with third parties, being the makers of the technologies on which the opportunity is raised and partners. It is identified as a Business Opportunity, the possibility of establishing new business relationships with an entity, this specific information that contains personal data of the responsible persons involved in that process.

When DSSI organizes an event, workshop or webinar together with one of its manufacturers, your data can also be shared with the same third parties.

GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION OF THIRD PARTIES

Manufacturers represented by DSSI may originate from countries outside the European Union’s borders, however all data are shared to develop and close business opportunities, as well as to improve relations of interest with the manufacturer itself (in the specific case of assistance to Events, Webinars or Workshops) and client.

WHAT DATA IS SHARED WITH THIRD PARTIES

For the purposes of new business opportunities, the data shared with the manufacturers are: Company name, Taxpayer number, Telephone, Address, Contact person in the IT, Commercial, Logistic Contact, Financial Contact, respective emails, telephones / mobile phones and address (office).

When registering for events, workshops or webinars that DSSI organizes in conjunction with its manufacturers, this information can be Name, Function, Company, Email and mobile number.

WHY DATA IS SHARED WITH THIRD PARTIES

DSSI as a Distributor of Value Added and representative of the technologies sold seeks to be rigorous and transparent in the way it establishes business in the market, trying not to demonstrate preferences of established Partnerships and protecting the opportunities of its partners when they first contact.

The transmission of this data is used in an initial way to register a new opportunity and to avoid that there are several competitors in the same bid for the same business. Later this data is useful for the ordering process.

3. Financial and/or contractual Communications

DSSI when it has an established business relationship (for example, which involved a purchase) retains a set of data for financial and / or contractual purposes, which relates to legal obligations.

In these cases, given the type of relationship established between the parties, there is no legal requirement of the contact to give their consent to be contacted and for their data to be stored for these purposes.

However, DSSI safeguards that the same data is protected by integrated security technologies and that its servers where this data is stored (100% in national territory) are encrypted.

Taking into account the basis of legitimate interest and legal obligations that are established by this type of relationship, it is not possible for an individual to request the removal of their email from the DSSI database, nor to request to be forgotten, during the legal period (in cases of billing the DSSI has to keep the information for a retention period of up to 5 years, for legal reasons).

4. Support Communications

DSSI when it has an established business relationship (for example, which has involved a purchase) often associates this relationship with support contracts, which is provided by DSSI Technicians and sometimes in conjunction with the manufacturer of the Technology requiring the need for support, ie your data for support purposes are shared with third parties but not stored at any time by third parties.

DSSI support makes use of an internal support order management tool, which allows you to establish a unique communication channel for solving technical problems exclusively, which generates automatic start and action emails for each support situation as well as the answers to the resolution are often by this channels, and sometimes phone support can also be made.

Given the legitimate interest of the intervenients in the support cases, consent is not requested to develop the support communications.

In addition, the information exchanged on the support provided is maintained for customer history, contractual compliance verification, and support service improvement processes. DSSI states that these same data retained on the support provided are protected by integrated security technologies and that the servers where these data are housed are 100% in national territory.

HOW TO ACCESS DSSI TECHNICAL SUPPORT

In order to access DSSI Technical Support it is necessary to have a time-share contract or if solutions purchased are under warranty period, and after this validation the support request can be opened by sending an email to support@dssi.co.mz or by logging in to the following link http://suporte.dssi.pt/otrs/customer.pl

WHY DATA IS SHARED WITH THIRD PARTIES

In some cases the requested support may require the intervention of the manufacturer, even though during this intervention the data is not stored, in some cases sensitive information can only be viewed for support and problem solving purposes.

HOW TO DELETE MY DSSI SUPPORT ACCOUNT

If you wish to stop having an account that allows you to open tickets on the DSSI Platform, you must send your request by email, through support@dssi.co.mz
