Privacy Policy

Please read this privacy policy (“Policy” or “Privacy policy”) carefully before using any website on which the policy is posted (“Site(s)”). By using one or more of these sites, you agree to be bound by the policy, as supplemented or modified by a supplemental privacy policy and other site-specific terms that are posted on a particular site, except as otherwise provided in agreements between you and the site operator.

Parties

Ikologik and other Ikologik entities, either individually or collectively, doing business as Ikologik (“Operator”), are the commercial operator(s) of these Sites, although software, hosting and other functions and content may be provided by Operator’s service providers (“Service Providers”), other companies affiliated with Operator (“Affiliates”), or merely in a business relationship with Operator(s) (“Business Partners”). Operator’s Service Providers, Affiliates and Business Partners are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Privacy Policy.

Change In Policy

The operator may change the Policy from time to time, with notice given to those completing a registration process (Registered Users). Your continued use of the Sites after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Policy. If you do not agree to abide by these or any future Policy, do not use the Sites and do not download materials from them.

What Information do we collect about you

We collect information about you when you express an interest in us or place an order for one of our products and services. We also collect information when you voluntarily share your details with us at trade shows by filling in forms or agreeing to pass your data on to us as exhibitors, online when you contact us through our online contact forms or via social media.

The Sites use cookies to collect user information. You will find additional information on this subject in the chapter about cookies.

Accesses to Sites are logged for the purpose of security analysis reports and to defend against cyber-attacks. With the exception of the IP address, no personal data is ever collected or used in this connection. IP addresses are analyzed only in the event of a cyber-attack. Log data is promptly deleted on a regular basis.

In addition, we collect personal data (names, company, function, telephone numbers, or e-mail addresses) in connection with the operation of our Sites only when you have voluntarily provided such data to us (through registration, contact inquiries, surveys, etc.) and when we are entitled to process or use such data by virtue of permission granted by you or on the basis of a statutory provision.

As a general rule, we use such data only for the purpose for which you divulged the data to us, such as to answer your inquiries, process your requests or grant you access to certain information.

Sharing of data

Insofar as you have provided your consent or when we are otherwise legally entitled to do so, we will share your personal data with subsidiaries of Operator or its Service Providers, Affiliates or Business Partners, where applicable, for the purposes indicated above.

In connection with the operation of the Sites, Operator works with Service Providers such as hosting or IT maintenance service providers. These recipients may possibly be located in countries other than your home country, in which applicable laws do not offer the same level of data privacy protection as in your home country.

Data is shared only in connection with and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. We do not sell or otherwise market your personal data to third parties.

Cookies

When you visit the Sites, information is stored on your terminal device in the form of a “cookie.” Cookies are small files that are stored on your terminal device and save certain settings and data to exchange with our websites via your browser.

For example, cookies enable us to tailor a site to better match your interests or to store your authentication token so that you do not have to re-enter it every time. As a general rule, we never collect personal data via cookies, unless you have given us your express permission to do so.

If you do not want us to recognize your terminal device, please configure your Internet browser to erase all cookies from your device, to block all cookies or to receive a warning before a cookie is stored

Please note that certain functions of our website may no longer work, or not correctly, without cookies.
