This “Privacy Policy” describes how International Decision Systems, Inc. Dba Solifi and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Solifi”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collect, use, disclose and otherwise process personal data in connection with this Website and any of our other websites or online services.
Data privacy and security are at the heart of how we work at Solifi. We only collect and use personal details where necessary to provide you with the best service and experience, and we do not sell, rent or make your personal data public.

The information we collect
WE COLLECT TWO MAIN TYPES OF INFORMATION ABOUT YOU: PERSONAL DETAILS YOU GIVE US AND DATA THAT’S AUTOMATICALLY GATHERED.
Solifi collects personal data in the course of communicating with potential or existing customers, providing services or support to customers or end users, operating its website, conducting marketing activities, and receiving service from suppliers and service providers.
