We acknowledge the need to protect personal data that is collected by or disclosed to us and to manage it in accordance with the Data Protection Act 2018 and EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR).

About us

Kwizzbitt (www.kwizzbit.com and www.kwbit.com) is a unique interactive quiz and audience participation platform played and operated using a smart phone or Internet enabled device in real time. Designed and developed by a team of quiz and gamification enthusiasts with a proven track record of delivering entertainment solutions to market, KwizzBit allows both the player and the host to engage seamlessly in interactive entertainment.  We are what is referred to in law as the data controller of your personal data. As the data controller we have a number of legal obligations to ensure that we only use your data in a fair, transparent and secure manner. There are also some circumstances in which we may operate as a data processor, for example when sending out marketing on behalf of a host. If you have any questions regarding this privacy notice, our use of your data or wish to exercise any of your legal rights under data protection law, you can contact us by email info@kwizzbit.com 

How we obtain your data

In most cases the personal data that we process will be provided by you when you register to use Kwizzbit as either a host or player and engage in any correspondence with us. If a host sends you an invitation using Kwizzbit we will be the data processor of this information. We may also ask you to provide information regarding your satisfaction of the service we have provided to you. Please help us to keep your information up to date by informing us of any changes to your contact details.

Disclosure of your personal data

We will only ever disclose your personal data to a third party where we are contractually required to do so (for example player data to a host) and have your consent, or are required to do so by law. We also use data processors to help deliver our services to you. This is limited to Amazon Web Services who host Kwizzbit and our data analytics platform. When using third party service providers we only disclose the personal data that is necessary to deliver the service. We have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and prohibits them from using your data for their own purposes. All contractors are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

Security of your personal data

We undertake regular IT security and data protection auditing to ensure our systems meet the expectations of the law and those of our clients. Those of our employees and contractors who have access to personal data are required to undertake data protection training. 

Transfers of data outside of the EEA

We may transfer your personal information to third party data processors who are based in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA). We use some US-based companies that provide services such as IT, communications and data analytics service such as MailChimp and Google Analytics. We only use US-based organisations that are self-certified as adhering to the EU-US Privacy Shield. We will not transfer your information to any processors based in other countries outside the EEA unless there is a European Commission adequacy decision for the specific country to which the data is transferred, or where we can be certain that there are adequate safeguards provided for your information and individual rights standards that meet the GDPR requirements. 

How long we keep your personal data

We will retain your personal data as long as is necessary to provide the services to which you have requested, or where we have another legitimate and lawful reason to do so. We may need to retain some information to comply with our legal obligations such as financial and accounting records. Unless there is an ongoing business relationship, we will only retain your personal data for 7 years after our last contact with you. In most cases player personal data will be deleted 2 years after your last log-in. We may contact you before we delete your account to give you the opportunity to keep it active.
