REASONS WE SHARE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We do not sell or otherwise disclose information that we collect to others, except as described in this Privacy Statement. Vigilum may share your information that we collect with our controlled subsidiaries and affiliates.

In some cases, Vigilum may share information with vendors or companies that help us run our business by processing information on behalf of Vigilum. This shared information would be for the purposes of hosting or storage of data, delivering customer support, processing credit card payments, social media and marketing, event support, and sending emails on our behalf. In such cases, these companies will be permitted to obtain only the information that they need to deliver the respective services and are not allowed to use your information for any other purpose, except where required by law. Such vendors and agents must abide by our data privacy and security requirements, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information, except where required by law to disclose your information. Vigilum may also share information with carefully selected strategic partners who provide services and sponsor events that may be of interest to you. These companies are obligated to protect your information and use it in accordance with their own privacy policies and practices.

Some Vigilum web pages allow you to choose to share your information with select Vigilum partners so that they can contact you about their products, services, or offers. Other sites do not share your contact information with third parties for marketing purposes, but instead may give you a choice as to whether you wish to receive communications from Vigilum on behalf of external business partners about a partner’s particular offering (without transferring your information to the third party).

Some Vigilum services may be co-branded and offered in conjunction with another company. If you register for or use such services, both Vigilum and the other company may receive information collected in connection with the co-branded services. The other company’s use of your information is subject to such other company’s own privacy policies and practices, and Vigilum is not responsible for the privacy practices of, or use of your information by, such other companies.

We may share your personal information with trusted participants in our sales and marketing chain, including, but not limited to, authorised resellers, distributors, and business partners (“Channel Partners”) for the limited purposes of selling, marketing, or providing support for certain product and service offerings. When these Channel Partners transfer information to us, we treat that information as described in this Privacy Statement. We take measures to help ensure that our Channel Partners protect the confidentiality, integrity, and security of any personal information we share with them. See a complete list of our Channel Partners.

We may access and/or disclose information we collect if we believe that such action is necessary to: (a) comply with the law or legal process served on Vigilum; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Vigilum (including the enforcement of our agreements) or third parties; or (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Vigilum services or members of the public. If we merge with another company or reorganise some part or all of our business, assets, or stock (including if we file for bankruptcy or similar proceeding), we may share information we collect from and about you in connection with the merger or reorganisation. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur and that any acquirer may continue to use information that we collect from and about you as set forth in this Privacy Statement.

YOUR CHOICES AND CONTROLS

You may have the ability to view or edit information we collect from and about you online. The appropriate method(s) for accessing your information will depend on which sites or services you have used. Some Vigilum webpages or services may collect information that you may be able to access through alternative means of access described by the service. Or you can contact our Data Protection Officer and we will contact you regarding your request.

You can stop the delivery of future marketing and promotional email from Vigilum and services by following the specific instructions in the email. You may also have the option of proactively making choices about the communications you receive from Vigilum by contacting us. However, we may send out emails periodically,  informing you of administrative and technical service issues about the products and services that you are using. These communications are considered essential to the provision of the service that you have requested. You will not be able to choose to unsubscribe to these mailings, as they are considered a part of the service you have chosen.
