Newicon takes the security of your data and our infrastructure very seriously. We are committed to providing an environment that is safe, secure, and available to all of our customers. Without these basics we would not have a company.
As a web based software company we know a lot about security. We have built banking portals and sensitive secure systems. Your data is safe with us! Our sales and marketing efforts are about building relationships with our customers. The only data we store about you is the data you explicitly give us if you fill out our contact form or sign up to our mailing list. We store numbers on how effective one contact button is from the next as a conversion percentage representing number of people visiting the site against the number of people who completed the form. We also pay google for adds - ran by our own internal digital team and we get numbers on how many clicks these adds have had. None of our web performance metrics can be used to identify you individually.
Your privacy is important to you and to us. So we’ll protect the information you
share with us.
We can promise that we will never sell or give away your name, mail
address, phone number, email address or any other information to anyone.

Newicon is committed to protecting your information. To do so, we employ a variety of security technologies and measures designed to protect information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. The measures we use are designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk of processing your personal information.
Newicon use state of the art security scanning tools: https://intruder.io scans all our internal and external endpoints for vulnerabilities monthly. It also proactively scans all endpoints as soon as a virus or security vulnerability is published to test if the systems have the vulnerability. This enables much faster resolution times vastly reducing the risk of potential breach.
All data is encrypted in transit with AES 256. Sensitive information is encrypted at rest.
We retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax, or accounting requirements).
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
