This privacy policy will explain how our organization uses the personal data we collect from you when you use our website.
Your Data
As an individual, you have the right to request the data being collected here about you to be returned to you, provided there is a reasonable basis for your request. You are also able to request that your data be deleted, restricted or rectified. These are called Subject Access Requests (SAR) – where you, as the service user, are the data subject. If you wish to do so, please contact us via our secure form here. Wordissimo will then invoke our Subject Access Request process and you can expect to be contacted to begin that process.
Wordissimo operates in a professional manner in all areas, but when it comes to processing user data, your privacy and rights are paramount. To this end, we have a clear and precise SAR process; organisation, people and technology protocols are in place to ensure that only those who must have access to and process your data can do so. Furthermore, through ‘privacy by design’ we ensure that your data is only kept for a period that is necessary. Working with our partner organisations, the appropriate technological safeguards are in place, including physical and network access, data hosting locations and SLAs to help all parties in compliance.
Your data is being collected on the lawful basis of legitimate interest. Your information will be used only and solely to process your work request and for informing you of offers and matters of interest by Wordissimo. You may opt out of this at any time, by contacting us through our secure form here.
Data Privacy Agreement
By proceeding to use our services, you are agreeing with this privacy statement, and accordingly and consequently you confirm that Wordissimo can use your data in this way, for any and each stage of the work process. This may include, in certain scenarios, putting your data in other software applications (for example, anti-plagiarism tools). In these circumstances, your data is not being transmitted beyond the European Economic Area (EEA). In these circumstances, your data is only being used to deal with your work request.

Wordissimo will NOT share your data with any partner companies so that they may offer you their products and services.
When Wordissimo processes your order, it may send your data to, and use the resulting information from, credit reference agencies to prevent fraudulent purchases.
How do we store your data?
Wordissimo securely stores your data at Microsoft data centres.
Microsoft uses encryption technologies to protect Office 365 customer data in transit.
Data is in transit:
- when a
client machine communicates with an Office 365 server; - when an
Office 365 server communicates with another Office 365 server; and - when an
Office 365 server communicates with a non-Office 365 server (e.g., Exchange
Online delivering email to a foreign email server).
Inter-datacentre communications between Office 365 servers take place over TLS or IPsec, and all customer-facing servers negotiate a secure session using TLS with client machines (e.g., Exchange Online uses TLS 1.2 with 256-bit cypher strength is used (FIPS 140-2 Level 2-validated). (See Technical
reference details about encryption in Office 365 for a list of TLS cypher suites supported by Office 365.) This applies to the protocols that are used by clients such as Outlook, Skype for Business, and Outlook on the web (e.g., HTTP, POP3, etc.).
The public certificates are issued by Microsoft IT SSL using SSLAdmin, an internal Microsoft tool to protect the confidentiality of transmitted information. All certificates issued by Microsoft IT have a minimum of 2048 bits in length, and Webtrust compliance requires SSLAdmin to make sure that certificates are issued only to public IP addresses owned by Microsoft. Any IP addresses that fail to meet this criterion are routed through an exception process.
All implementation details such as the version of TLS being used, whether Forward Secrecy (FS) is enabled, the order of cypher suites, etc., are available publicly. One way to see these details is to use a third-party website, such as Qualys SSL Labs (www.ssllabs.com). Below are the links to automated test pages from Qualys that display information for the following services:
- Office 365 Portal
- Exchange Online
- SharePoint Online
- Skype for Business (SIP)
- Skype for Business (Web)
- Exchange Online Protection
- Microsoft Teams
For Exchange Online Protection, URLs vary by tenant names; however, all customers can test Office 365 using microsoft-com.mail.protection.outlook.com.
Wordissimo will keep your assignment data for six months from completion of your assignment.
Wordissimo will keep your Personal identification information for twenty-four months from completion of your assignment.
Once this period has expired, we will delete your data through the available methods authorised by Microsoft using the tools for which we are licensed. We will delete your data earlier on receipt of a specific request to do so.
Marketing
Wordissimo will send you information about our products and services that we think you might like, but will NOT do this on behalf of our partner companies.
If you have agreed to receive marketing, you may always opt out at a later date.
You have the right at any time to stop Wordissimo from contacting you for marketing purposes or giving your data to other members of the Wordissimo Group.
If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please contact us here via the secure form at our website.
