Who we are
Data8 is responsible for the personal information described in this policy. You can reach us at outreach@dataeight.io.
What this policy covers
This policy covers personal information we handle when you visit the Site or contact us, information about the people we do business with (founders, referrers, customers and advisers), and how we treat personal information contained in the data we acquire.
Information we collect
- Information you give us, such as your name, email address, company and the details you share about a business, referral or data need.
- Technical information collected automatically when you visit the Site, such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed and timestamps, recorded in standard server logs.
- Information from other sources, such as an introduction from a referrer or publicly available business information.
How we use it
- To reply to your enquiries and hold conversations you start with us
- To evaluate potential acquisitions and referrals
- To manage relationships with customers and partners
- To keep the Site secure and working properly
- To meet our legal and regulatory obligations
Where data protection laws such as the GDPR or UK GDPR apply, we rely on our legitimate interests, the performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations or your consent, depending on the purpose.
Data in our datasets
Data we acquire through business acquisitions or partnerships is de-identified before it is delivered to customers. This includes removing or transforming direct identifiers such as names, contact details, precise locations and photos, and reviewing the results.
We require customers to agree not to attempt to re-identify individuals from the data we supply.
International transfers
Where personal information is transferred to another country, we use appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, as required by applicable law.
How long we keep it
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above, including to meet legal, accounting or reporting requirements, and then delete or anonymise it.
Security
We use technical and organisational measures appropriate to the risk to protect personal information. No system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal information, and to object to or restrict how we use it. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, email outreach@dataeight.io. We will not discriminate against you for doing so.
Children
The Site is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last changed.
