Igor, Inc.
Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Igor, Inc. (“Igor, Inc.,” “us,” or “we”) collects, records, organizes, structures, stores, adapts or alters, retrieves, consults, uses, discloses, disseminates or makes available, aligns or combines, restricts, erases, destroys, or otherwise processes information that we collect from you, as well as how we protect and secure your data. If you have additional questions regarding your rights under this Privacy Policy or any agreement you have entered into with us regarding your data, please contact us at privacy@igor-tech.com.

This Privacy Policy generally applies to Personal Information that we process. However, this Privacy Policy is subordinate to any specific terms and conditions set forth in any site licenses, terms and conditions of use, or other agreements you may have with us related a particular product, service, or data that is processed. It is also important to note that this Privacy Policy applies to information collected, used, and possessed by Igor, Inc. and its controlled affiliates, but not to its 3rd-party ecosystem which may have their own privacy policies that apply to information that they collect from you.

What types of information and data do you collect, and when do you collect this data?

 

We collect various types of Personal Information. We collect this information when you provide it to us (whether directly, through our dealers and/or representatives, or from our products) or when you use certain services we provide.

"Personal Information" is information that can be used to identify, locate, or contact you as a natural person, as well as other information about you that we tie to Personal Information. Personal Information that we collect includes, but is not limited to, the following types of information:

  • "Contact Information" that allows us to identify and communicate with you, such as your name, phone number, address, email, and language preferences.
  • "Relationship Information" that helps us understand who you are what you want in order to offer you products and services that may interest you.
  • "Transactional Information" about how you interact with us, our dealers and business partners, including purchases, services you request, customer service inquiries, and customer account information.
  • "Financial Account Information" as needed to complete your purchases, such as credit card information.

“Non-Personal Information” is any information that does not identify a natural person and is not identifiable to a natural person, such as:

  • Cookies and other tools used in a non-identifiable way;
  • Anonymized information;
  • Aggregated information; and
  • Information about your business operations, including, but not limited to:
    • Operation-specific data, such as location data, when kept in a non-identifiable way; and
    • The name, form, and contact details of legal persons.

In addition to the methods described above, we may collect Personal Information, Non-Personal Information from our authorized customers and partners as part of our standard business operations, to provide services to the authorized customers and partners, and as otherwise agreed pursuant to agreements between us and such authorized customers and partners.

When data is described as “anonymized,” it means that the data is no longer associated with a particular person. When data is described as “aggregated,” it means that such information has been combined with other data in such a way that no person can be identified or linked to any specific action or information.

We collect Non-Personal Information in the same way we collect Personal Information.

How do you use my information?

Subject to the limitations and other rights set forth in this Privacy Policy, we use your Personal Information in its identifiable form for a variety of purposes (the “Purposes”), including:

These Purposes may be necessary for us to perform a contract to which you are a party, comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject, protect our vital interests or the interests of another

natural person, or otherwise pursue our legitimate business purposes and objectives. We may obtain your consent to process your Personal Information, as necessary.

Because Non-Personal Information does not personally identify you, we may use and disclose Non-Personal Information for any purpose. In some instances, we may combine Non-Personal Information with Personal Information (such as combining your name with your location data). If we combine any Non-Personal Information with Personal Information, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information.

In addition, we reserve the right to use anonymized and aggregated Personal Information to improve our products and services, to create and publish reports, to conduct statistical analysis about our customers and equipment, and for other activities that do not result in the disclosure of your identifiable information.

When will you disclose my information and who may receive it?

We are committed to being transparent regarding the manner in which we use and disclose your information. We may disclose and share your information as follows:

  • We may share Personal Information with our affiliated companies, our authorized customers, and business partners, as needed to accomplish, and consistently with, the Purposes set forth above, or as you authorize or request.
  • We may also share Personal Information with our service providers to fulfill the Purposes on our behalf. Our service providers are bound by law or contract to treat your information and data with the same level of protection that we do and to only use it in accordance with our instructions.
  • We may disclose Personal Information where needed to affect the sale or transfer of business assets, to enforce our rights, protect our property, or protect the rights, property, or safety of others, or as needed to support external auditing, compliance, and corporate governance functions.
  • We will also disclose Personal Information when required to do so by law, such as in response to a subpoena, including to law enforcement agencies and courts in the countries where we operate.

As noted above, we reserve the right to use and disclose anonymized and aggregated Personal Information to improve our products and services, to create and publish reports, to conduct statistical analysis about our customers and equipment, and for other activities that do not result in the disclosure of your identifiable information.

How long will you keep my information?

We keep different kinds of personal data for different lengths of time, depending on the Purposes for which they are processed and the unique circumstances of your situation. We will hold your Personal Information as long as necessary for the relevant Purpose. For more information on our data-retention policy and how long your data might be retained, please contact us as information provided below.

In many cases, the information we collect using cookies and other tools is only used in a non-identifiable way, without reference to Personal Information.

For EU Individuals - Your Legal Rights Under GDPR:

The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), particularly Articles 15 to 21, affords you a number of rights as a data subject. We encourage you to read and learn about those rights on your own. However, the following will help you to begin to understand those rights.

(a) The Right to Access: This allows you to request from us information about your Personal Information, including what data we have and how and why it is being processed.

(b) The Right to Rectification: In the event that some or all of the Personal Information that we have concerning you is inaccurate, this gives you the right to have those inaccuracies rectified.

(c) The Right to Erasure: In some cases, you may have the right to request that we erase your Personal Information that it has in its possession.

(d) The Right to Restriction of Processing: This gives you the right, in some circumstances, to have us process your Personal Information only with your consent.

(e) The Right to Object to Processing: Where we are processing your Personal Information on the ground of its legitimate interests, or to carry out tasks in the public interest or to exercise official authority, you have a right to object to the processing on grounds relating to your particular situation. In cases where you object to our processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes, the processing will cease.

(f) The Right to Data Portability: This allows you to request from us a copy of your Personal Information that it has on file and to transfer that information to someone else without any interference from us. In some cases, you may be able to request that we transfer your Personal Information directly to a third party on your behalf.

In addition, to the extent that we process any of your Personal Information on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing that was based on your consent before its withdrawal.
