We will collect and use only Personal Data that you choose to give us that is: necessary for our contractual relationship pursuant to the applicable Terms of Service; necessary for our legitimate business purposes; required by law or regulation; or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.
We will process Personal Data only in ways that are compatible with the purpose for which we collect it, or for purposes that you later authorize. Before we use your Personal Data for a purpose that is materially different than the purpose for which we collected it or that you later authorized, we will provide you with the opportunity to opt in where that is required by law. We maintain reasonable procedures to help ensure that Personal Data is accurate, complete, current, and reliable for its intended use.
We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes for which it was collected.
HOW AND WHY WE MIGHT SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Your Personal Data may be shared within INNOV8, including its marketing department, and with members of the technical support and customer account management, sales, and product development teams, and IT staff, only if access to the data is necessary for performance of their respective roles. INNOV8 will not sell or otherwise share your personal information with any third parties except as stated in this Privacy Policy.
We may share your Personal Data with the customer who granted you authorized user access to the INNOV8Platform, but only as necessary to perform contractual and other legal obligations and to manage the customer relationship. Please review the customer’s own privacy policy for information on their data protection practices concerning the information that you provide to INNOV8’s customer.
Otherwise, INNOV8 will not disclose your Personal Data without your consent to do so, except:
- To third-party agents or service providers to carry out the purposes for which you have provided it to us;
- In the context of a sale, amalgamation, re-organization, transfer or financing of parts or some or all of INNOV8’s business;
- For purposes of research and development where your Personal Data combined with all or some of the Personal Data of other users and such aggregated data is de-identified or otherwise anonymized and no longer contains Personal Data; or
- Under certain circumstances, in response to valid requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
In any such cases where we share Personal Data, INNOV8 requires recipients to comply with the terms of this Privacy Policy and all applicable privacy laws.
In the unlikely event that we discover that a recipient is using Personal Data in a way that conflicts with this Privacy Policy and applicable privacy laws, we will take all reasonable steps to stop them.
Under certain circumstances, we may remain liable for the acts of our third-party agents or service providers who perform services on our behalf for their handling of Personal Data that we transfer to them.
ONWARD TRANSFER
We process data collected through the INNOV8 Platform from facilities located in the United States. Depending on where you are located, your Personal Data may be transferred to those facilities for purposes of performing our obligations and exercising our rights under the applicable Terms of Service. Although the laws of this jurisdiction may provide data protection different than your jurisdiction, INNOV8 implements appropriate measures and safeguards to ensure that Personal Data is transferred, processed, and protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy and all applicable data privacy and security laws.
Similarly, under some circumstances, we may need to transfer Personal Data from one jurisdiction to another, including to jurisdictions where the laws provide different protection than the jurisdiction from which the information was derived. In any such case, we will take appropriate measures to ensure that Personal Data is transferred, processed and protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy and all applicable data privacy and security laws.
TECHNICAL, PHYSICAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE SECURITY
We have implemented commercially reasonable security safeguards to protect your Personal Data against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification. Methods of protection include: physical measures (e.g., locked filing cabinets and restricted access to offices); organizational measures (e.g., security clearances and limiting access on a “need-to-know” basis); and technological measures (e.g., the use of complex passwords and encryption of data both at rest and in transit, as well as real time encrypted data redundancy and encrypted data backups and comprehensive on premise server firewall blocking of threats including daily published hijacked and malicious spyware servers, and adversarial nation state blocks such as North Korea and Iran).
CHILDREN
The INNOV8 Platform is intended for users eighteen (18) or older. It is not in any way designed to
attract children. If we discover that a person under the age of eighteen (18) has submitted Personal Data through the Platform, or that someone has inappropriately done so on their behalf, we will delete such information from our databases as soon as practicable and in accordance with applicable law.
YOUR RIGHTS AND CHOICES
INNOV8 is a company with a global reach. Our objective as expressed in this Privacy Policy is to provide all our users with the same high level of personal data protection no matter where they may be located, and to make our best effort to comply with the privacy laws applicable in all jurisdictions where we do business. Although it is impractical to identify the privacy rights applicable in every possible jurisdiction, INNOV8 recognizes that you may have certain rights with respect to your Personal Data under applicable data protection laws and subject to any applicable INNOV8 Terms of Service, including the right to:
- access and obtain one copy of your data on request in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format;
- request that we transmit to a third party the data that we have received directly from you (as opposed to data that we may receive about you from sources other than you), provided that the data processing in question is based on our agreement with the customer and is being carried out by automated means;
- request that we change incorrect or incomplete data;
- request that we delete or stop processing your data under certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations, for example where the data is no longer necessary for the purpose in question;
- object to the processing of your data where INNOV8 is relying only on either the necessity of public interest or its own legitimate interests as the legal ground for processing; and
- ask INNOV8 to restrict processing data for a period under certain circumstances, for example if you are contesting the accuracy of your personal data or there is a dispute about the lawfulness of certain processing.
In any such case, INNOV8 will request that you provide identifying information sufficient to verify your identity and ownership of the information. Any such identifying information shall be used only for this purpose.
HOW DO I EXERCISE MY RIGHTS AND OPTIONS?
If you have questions or complaints, or you wish to take any of the actions described above, please contact us at privacy@innov8.com
We will attend to your request promptly and will respond within a reasonable time.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Data if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the Personal Data relates to you. Making a verifiable user request does not require you to create an account with us. However, we do consider requests made through your password-protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to Personal Data associated with that specific account. We will use Personal Data provided in a verifiable user request solely to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.
If you are in any way unhappy with our collection or use of your Personal Data or even the terms of this Privacy Policy, we hope that you will contact us as described below so that we can address your concerns. If however you would like to lodge a complaint, you have the right to do so by contacting your local supervisory or data protection authority for further assistance and information.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising applicable data protection rights. Unless permitted by law, we will not:
- Deny you goods or services.
- Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
- Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
- Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
Where permitted by law, we may offer you certain financial incentives that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any such permissible financial incentive will reasonably relate to your Personal Data’s value and contain written terms that describe the program's material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
