Privacy Policy
Effective Date: June 18, 2024
Typhon Enterprises LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website https://sa-sms.com (the "Site") and the Single Access – Simple Message Service (SA-SMS) application. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, and protection of your information when you visit our Site and use our SA-SMS application.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us through your interaction with our Site and SA-SMS application. The information collected includes:
Message Content: When you create a message, the content is encrypted using a password you provide. The encrypted message is stored in our database. Importantly, the password you provide is used solely for encryption purposes and is never stored in our systems. This ensures that we cannot access or view the contents of your message.
Email Information: If you choose to send the message via email, we temporarily collect your name, the recipient's name, and the recipient's email address. This information is collected solely for the purpose of sending the email and facilitating the delivery of the SA-SMS link. This information is not stored within our application but may be logged by our email service provider for delivery purposes.
2. Use of Information
The information you provide is used exclusively for the functionality of the SA-SMS application:
Encryption and Storage: Your message content is encrypted using the password you provide. The encrypted message is stored in our database, and the password is not retained by us, ensuring that we cannot decrypt or view the message content.
Email Transmission: If you opt to send the SA-SMS link via email, we use the provided email information (your name, the recipient's name, and the recipient's email address) to send the email containing the SA-SMS link. This information is used solely for this purpose and is not stored in our application.
3. Disclosure of Information
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your information to outside parties. However, we may disclose your information under certain circumstances:
Compliance with Legal Obligations: We may disclose your information when required to do so by law, such as in response to a subpoena, court order, or other legal processes. We may also disclose your information in response to a government request or to comply with regulatory requirements.
Protection of Rights and Property: We may disclose your information to enforce our policies, protect our rights, property, or safety, or the rights, property, or safety of others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
4. Data Security
We implement robust security measures to ensure the protection of your information:
Encryption: All messages are encrypted and stored securely in our database. Decryption is only possible with the correct password, which we do not retain. This ensures that even if our database is compromised, the message content cannot be accessed or viewed without the password.
Access Controls: Access to encrypted messages is restricted to authorized personnel who require such access to perform their job duties. We regularly review and update our security practices to ensure the ongoing protection of your information.
5. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy:
Message Retention: Encrypted messages are stored until they are accessed by the recipient or until their specified expiration date, whichever occurs first. Once accessed, messages are rendered inaccessible and are deleted from our database. If the message is not accessed before the expiration date, it is permanently deleted and cannot be retrieved.
Email Logs: Temporary email information (your name, the recipient's name, and the recipient's email address) is not stored by our application but may be logged by our email service provider for the purpose of ensuring successful delivery. These logs are typically retained for a short period and are subject to the email service provider's data retention policies.
6. Your Rights
You have certain rights regarding your personal data, subject to applicable data protection laws:
Access: You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you. This allows you to receive a copy of the personal data we have collected about you and to verify that we are processing it lawfully.
Deletion: You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data. This allows you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no compelling reason for us to continue processing it. Please note that certain data may need to be retained to comply with legal obligations or for legitimate business purposes.
7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, and other factors. Any changes will be effective immediately upon posting of the revised Privacy Policy on this page, and the "Effective Date" at the top will be updated accordingly. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of significant changes, either through direct communication or by placing a prominent notice on our Site.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information. Your continued use of our Site and SA-SMS application following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes. If you do not agree with the revised terms, you should discontinue your use of the Site and SA-SMS application immediately.
In the event of any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we may also seek your explicit consent to such changes where required by applicable law. Please revisit this page regularly to ensure that you are aware of any updates or modifications.
