Privacy Policy
How Prytania Managed Services collects, uses, stores, and protects your information.
Effective Date: April 16, 2026
1. Scope & Who This Policy Covers
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") applies to:
- Visitors to the Prytania Managed Services website (www.prytaniams.com) and any related online properties ("Website")
- Current, prospective, and former clients of Prytania Managed Services ("Clients") and their authorized contacts
- Employees, contractors, and end-users of Client organizations whose information Prytania may access in the course of providing managed IT services
This Policy covers information collected and processed by Prytania Managed Services LLC ("Prytania," "we," "us," or "our"), headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana. It does not cover third-party websites, services, or platforms linked from our Website, which have their own privacy practices.
Prytania operates in two distinct data roles depending on context: (1) as a Data Controller with respect to information collected directly on our Website and in our business operations; and (2) as a Data Processor or Service Provider acting on behalf of Clients with respect to Client data accessed in the course of delivering managed IT services.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information Clients and Contacts Provide Directly
When you inquire about our services, enter into a service agreement, or communicate with us, we may collect:
- Business contact information: name, title, company name, email address, phone number, and mailing address
- Billing and payment information: invoicing details, payment method information (processed securely through our payment processor; Prytania does not store full payment card numbers)
- Service-related information: technical environment details, system inventories, credentials, network diagrams, and other information necessary to deliver IT services
- Communications: emails, support tickets, chat logs, and call recordings (where permitted by law and disclosed to participants) related to our service delivery
2.2 Information We Collect Automatically from Our Website
When you visit our Website, we and our service providers may automatically collect:
- Log data: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, and time and date of your visit
- Device information: device type, screen resolution, and unique device identifiers
- Cookie and tracking data: see Section 6 (Cookies & Tracking Technologies) for full details
2.3 Information We Access in the Course of Providing Services
To deliver managed IT services, Prytania's personnel and remote management tools may access or encounter:
- Data stored on Client systems, servers, cloud environments, and endpoints, including files, emails, databases, and application data
- Personal information of Client employees and end-users, such as usernames, email addresses, work profiles, and device activity logs
- Network traffic and security event logs generated by monitoring tools deployed in Client environments
Prytania accesses this information solely to perform contracted services. We treat all Client system data as Confidential Information under our Terms of Service and do not use it for our own commercial purposes.
2.4 Information from Third Parties
We may receive business contact information from referral partners, industry directories, or publicly available sources for the purpose of marketing our services to potential clients. We handle such information in accordance with this Policy.
3. How We Use Information
Prytania uses the information we collect for the following purposes:
3.1 Delivering and Improving Services
- Provisioning, managing, monitoring, and supporting Client IT environments
- Responding to support requests, diagnosing technical issues, and performing remote remediation
- Managing user accounts, access credentials, and software licenses on Client systems
- Analyzing service performance to improve our tools, processes, and offerings
3.2 Business Operations
- Processing invoices, tracking payments, and managing billing disputes
- Executing and administering service agreements, SOWs, and legal obligations
- Communicating with clients regarding service updates, maintenance windows, incidents, and renewals
- Conducting internal audits, risk assessments, and compliance activities
3.3 Security & Incident Response
- Detecting, investigating, and responding to cybersecurity threats, anomalies, and incidents affecting Client and Prytania systems
- Maintaining security logs for forensic analysis and audit purposes
- Protecting the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of Client and Prytania data
3.4 Website & Marketing

3.5 Legal Compliance
- Complying with applicable laws, regulations, and legal processes
- Enforcing our Terms of Service and other agreements
- Establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims
4. Legal Bases for Processing
Prytania processes personal information on the following legal bases:
- Contract performance: processing necessary to perform our managed services agreements with Clients and to fulfill pre-contractual obligations (e.g., responding to service inquiries)
- Legitimate interests: processing for fraud prevention, network and information security, internal analytics, and direct marketing to business contacts, where our legitimate interests are not overridden by individual privacy rights
- Legal obligation: processing required by applicable federal, state, or local law, including data retention obligations and responses to lawful government requests
- Consent: where required by law, we obtain consent before sending marketing communications or placing non-essential cookies
Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have assessed that those interests are not outweighed by individuals' privacy rights. Individuals may object to processing based on legitimate interests at any time (see Section 10).
5. HIPAA & Protected Health Information
5.1 Our Role as a Business Associate
As a Business Associate, Prytania does not use or disclose PHI except as permitted or required by the applicable BAA and HIPAA regulations. Prytania accesses PHI only to the minimum extent necessary to perform the contracted IT services (the "Minimum Necessary" standard).
5.2 Safeguards for PHI
Prytania implements the administrative, physical, and technical safeguards required by the HIPAA Security Rule (45 CFR Part 164, Subpart C) for electronic PHI (ePHI) encountered in Client environments covered by a BAA. These safeguards include:
- Access controls limiting ePHI access to authorized Prytania personnel with a need to know
- Audit logging of access to systems containing ePHI
- Encryption of ePHI in transit using industry-standard protocols (e.g., TLS 1.2 or higher)
- Workforce training on HIPAA obligations and privacy practices
- Breach notification procedures consistent with the HIPAA Breach Notification Rule (45 CFR Part 164, Subpart D)
5.3 HIPAA Breach Notification
In the event of a Breach of Unsecured PHI (as defined by HIPAA) discovered by Prytania, we will notify the applicable Covered Entity Client without unreasonable delay and in no case later than 60 calendar days after discovery, in accordance with our BAA and 45 CFR Section 164.410. Notifications will include the information required by HIPAA to the extent known at the time of notification.
5.4 Subcontractors
Where Prytania engages subcontractors who may have access to PHI, Prytania will enter into BAAs with those subcontractors that impose HIPAA-equivalent obligations. Prytania remains responsible to the Covered Entity for the actions of its subcontractors with respect to PHI.
5.5 General Clients
This Section 5 applies only to Clients who have executed a BAA with Prytania. For all other Clients, data accessed during service delivery is governed by the confidentiality provisions of our Terms of Service and this Policy, but HIPAA's specific requirements do not apply.
6. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
6.1 What We Use
Our Website uses the following types of cookies and similar technologies:
- Strictly necessary cookies: required for the Website to function (e.g., session management, security). These cannot be disabled.
- Analytics cookies: help us understand how visitors use our Website (e.g., Google Analytics). Data is aggregated and anonymized where possible.
- Preference cookies: remember your settings and preferences to improve your experience.
- Marketing cookies: used to track visitors across websites for remarketing purposes. We use these sparingly and only with consent where required.
6.2 Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies; however, doing so may affect Website functionality. Where required by applicable law, we obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies. You may withdraw consent at any time through our cookie preference center or by adjusting your browser settings.
6.3 Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" signals. Our Website does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals in a standardized way, as no uniform standard exists. We will revisit this position as the standard evolves.
7. Information Sharing & Disclosure
Prytania does not sell, rent, or trade personal information. We share information only in the following limited circumstances:
7.1 Service Providers & Subprocessors
We engage trusted third-party vendors to help operate our business and deliver services, including:
- Remote monitoring and management (RMM) platform providers
- Professional services automation (PSA) and ticketing system vendors
- Cloud storage and backup providers
- Billing, invoicing, and payment processing platforms
- Cybersecurity tool vendors (EDR, DNS filtering, SIEM)
- Communication platforms (email, video conferencing, VoIP)
All service providers are contractually required to protect information with standards at least as protective as this Policy and to use information only to provide services to Prytania. Where applicable, we execute Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) with subprocessors.
7.2 Legal Requirements & Law Enforcement
We may disclose information when required by law, court order, subpoena, or other legal process, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to: (a) comply with applicable law or legal obligations; (b) protect the rights, property, or safety of Prytania, our clients, or the public; or (c) detect or prevent fraud, security threats, or illegal activity. Where legally permitted, we will notify affected clients prior to disclosure.
7.3 Business Transfers
If Prytania undergoes a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, Client and Website visitor information may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. We will provide reasonable notice of any such transfer and the opportunity for affected parties to exercise applicable rights.
7.4 With Your Consent
We may share information with third parties for purposes not described in this Policy when we have your explicit consent to do so.
7.5 Aggregated & De-Identified Data
We may share aggregated, de-identified, or anonymized data (from which personal identifiers have been removed) with partners, in public reports, or for industry analysis. Such data cannot reasonably be used to identify any individual.
8. Data Retention
Prytania retains personal and Client information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, to satisfy our contractual and legal obligations, and to resolve disputes. Our standard retention guidelines are:
- Client contact and account information: retained for the duration of the service relationship and for seven (7) years following termination, consistent with standard business record-keeping requirements
- Support tickets and service records: retained for five (5) years following ticket closure
- Security event and audit logs: retained for a minimum of one (1) year, or longer where required by applicable law or a client's compliance framework (e.g., HIPAA requires six years for BAA-related documentation)
- Financial and billing records: retained for seven (7) years in accordance with IRS and state tax requirements
- Website analytics data: retained in aggregated form for up to two (2) years
- PHI accessed under a BAA: retained only as long as necessary to perform the contracted services; PHI is returned or securely destroyed upon BAA termination in accordance with HIPAA requirements
When information is no longer needed, Prytania will securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with our data destruction procedures. Secure destruction of physical media containing sensitive data follows NIST SP 800-88 guidelines.
9. Data Security
Prytania implements a layered security program designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information we collect and process. Our security controls include:
- Encryption of data in transit using TLS 1.2 or higher for all network communications
- Encryption of sensitive data at rest on Prytania-managed systems
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) required for all Prytania staff accessing client systems and internal platforms
- Role-based access controls limiting information access to personnel with a legitimate business need
- Continuous endpoint protection and threat monitoring on Prytania-managed devices
- Regular vulnerability assessments and patching of Prytania's own systems
- Annual security awareness training for all Prytania employees and contractors
- A documented incident response plan that is reviewed and tested annually
No security system is impenetrable. While Prytania takes significant measures to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security against all threats. In the event of a data breach affecting personal information, Prytania will notify affected parties in accordance with applicable state breach notification laws and, where applicable, HIPAA requirements.
