Definitions of Data Protection Terms
Personal data – means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’), an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
Processing – means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
Controller – means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
Processor – means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
4Call Data Processing
4Call has different data processes (data subject, data controller) depending on the following scenarios:
- 4Call offers a Product that is hosted, configured and administered by Partners. In this instance, 4Call is not liable and all obligations squarely lie with the Partners.
- 4Call offers a hosted solution that is being administered by Partners. In this instance, 4Call is only a data processor while the Partners may be a data controller. Thus, the Partner would have the obligation to fulfill all obligations concerning data controllers and processors, while 4Call fulfills obligations concerning data processors only.
4Call Sub-Processor
Our data center and public cloud vendors maintain certifications that cover data security. We have chosen the Sub-processors that will ensure the security and privacy and We do not grant them access to Your private data. Sub-processors are used by Us for hosting and archiving purposes.
Our Point of Presence data centers are located in the USA.
How Does 4Call Protect Your Data?
4Call operates through different entities across many different legal and trading jurisdictions with varying levels of laws and practices. As such and notwithstanding 4Call and all associated companies will not trade, sell, or disclose to any third-party any form of identifiable information without the consent of the data subject except as required by law, search warrant or other legal processes. This includes information derived from registration, subscription, and use of 4Call’s service and products. We use technical security measures to prevent loss, misuse and alteration of information under Our control and all information is maintained in a secure environment.
When You register details with us, make an order or access account details, We use a secure server. Any data You give Us is encrypted using a ‘Secure Socket Layer’ (SSL) session. SSL is an industry standard and is one of the best methods to ensure Internet messages are not intercepted. However, You should be aware that older browsers cannot use SSL.
Over and above what 4Call does to safeguard Your privacy and security, there are a number of things You can do to protect yourself from Internet fraud:
Choose a password You can remember but others will not guess, one that uses alphanumeric upper/lower case combination with special characters, change it regularly, and if You do write it down, keep it somewhere safe and secure. When You have finished Your session on a 4Call website, make sure that You prevent Your details being seen by anyone that You do not wish to see them. So, if You have registered and logged in, remember to log off. Clear any ‘cache’ so there is no record of any transactions left on screen – all modern browsers provide you with this option. We also recommend closing Your browser so any history of the session is cleared. As an extra precaution, Your session in many areas of the www.4Call.app will terminate if You have not used the site for 20 minutes.

Children's Privacy Policy
Spam is email or voicemail that is sent against the wishes of the recipient. There are two kinds. The first kind of spam concerns individuals who email people that they don’t know personally. The second type of spam is sent by organizations to individuals who have not expressed a desire to receive such communications. 4Call regards both kinds of spam as inappropriate.
4Call has zero tolerance for spam. Spam complaints will be dealt with seriously and can result in losing 4Call privileges such as loss of referral credits and even loss of a customer’s account. Please don’t send spam on behalf of 4Call.
If You receive spam and want to report it to 4Call, please forward the email You have received to [email protected].
Upon receipt We will:
- Remove the email address provided from Our own sales-related communications and;
- Follow up with the party who sent the message for further disciplinary actions.
For questions about Our spam policy or any spam-related issues, please email Us at: [email protected].
Unlawful Activity
4Call may use subscriber identifiable information to investigate and help prevent potentially unlawful activity or activities that threaten the integrity of service, the network integrity, that otherwise violate 4Call’s Service Agreements or activities that are or may be illegal. 4Call shall be the sole determinant of what is legal and what is not. However, this will expressly not include normal political or commercial activities. To offer assistance to relevant authorities 4Call seeks sufficient evidence of the possibility of illegal activities before disclosing private information. This may come in the form of a request from a relevant Court.
These standards include but not exclusively the renouncement of terrorism, a fair trial through the right of representation, commitment to inform detainees of the right to be represented as well as freedom of expression, freedom of religion and other standards as the Company sees fit from time to time.
