Collection
Cynergic endeavours to collect any personal information directly from the individual with that individual’s consent. Where personal information is provided to Cynergic by third parties, relevant staff will always take reasonable steps to obtain consent from the individual to whom the information pertains where required by the legislation.

Cynergic only collects personal information that is necessary for the conduct of its business, be it by the company’s internal, Sales, or Services divisions. Without the provision of the requested information by the individual, Cynergic is unable to effectively complete the relevant business activity.

Within Cynergic’s Sales and Services divisions, personal information is only disclosed to suppliers and customers relevant to the particular business that the individual is conducting with Cynergic.

Any Cynergic client, customer, business partner or recruitment candidate who does not wish their personal information to be provided to any particular organisation or types of organisations should notify Cynergic at the time of the collection of the personal information.

Use and Disclosure
As a major provider of a range of information technology products, services and resource solutions, Cynergic’s primary purpose for collecting personal information is to facilitate the efficient provision of quality information technology products and services to its business associates.

Apart from the completion of the original business dealing this may involve the provision of relevant product and industry updates and other market related information and opportunities to Cynergic’s business associates. Should you prefer not to receive any such information please advise Cynergic by contacting the our Privacy Officer as detailed above.

Data Quality
Cynergic continuously monitors the accuracy of personal information on collection from and provision by the individual and through the day-to-day processes of its business. Should any updates to your personal information be required please contact and inform Cynergic.

Data Security
As an information technology company, Cynergic employs state of the art security systems and procedures to ensure the integrity and security of personal information held by the company.

Personal information does not leave Cynergic’s internal systems unless required to effect the primary purpose of your business with Cynergic, or unless consented to.

Should personal information be required to be removed from our offices for business purposes, increased security measures are employed.

Despite the high level of information security employed within Cynergic and its commitment to your privacy, the company is unable to provide an absolute assurance that personal information will remain secure at all times. Cynergic therefore does not accept any responsibility for incidences of unauthorised access to personal information, which is provided at your own risk. Likewise Cynergic does not guarantee the security or privacy compliance of any websites that are accessible through links provided on any of its websites.

Cynergic will delete from its systems any of your personal information held by the company on your request provided that sufficient proof of identity is established.

Openness
Cynergic's Privacy Statement is available on its website.

Personal information held by Cynergic is limited to that which is required for the legitimate functions of the company’s business.

Any queries regarding ’s position on privacy should be directed to Cynergic’s privacy officer via e-mail to info@cynergic.net

Requests for access should be forwarded to Cynergic’s privacy officer along with sufficient proof of identification.

Identifiers
Cynergic limits the use of government identifiers to the purposes required of the company by legislation only.

Anonymity
Cynergic’s personnel will respect a request for anonymity unless and until relevant business negotiations are entered into. None of Cynergic’s business processes can be completed effectively with either party remaining anonymous.

Transborder Data Flows
Although Cynergic is a national company the company does occasionally engage in international business. In these instances we undertake not to send or disclose personal information without the consent of the individual.
