Envotec Inc, (together with its affiliates, “ENVOTEC,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) takes seriously the confidentiality of your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes the information collected by Envotec and its suppliers (such information, “Collected Information”) through this website and the online tools and software we provide (together, the “Services”) and how that information is collected, used, and shared. This Privacy Policy also explains your rights and choices regarding your personal information, how we communicate changes to this Privacy Policy, and how you may contact us regarding questions or issues with respect to anything contained in this Privacy Policy.
By accessing or using the Services, or by entering into any agreement with Envotec that references this Privacy Policy, you agree on behalf of yourself and any company that you represent (together, “you”) that you have read and understand this Privacy Policy.
Envotec reserves the right to modify or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. All changes will be effective immediately upon posting to the Services. Material changes will be conspicuously posted on the Services or otherwise communicated to you.
If you are using the Services from outside the United States, please be aware that Collected Information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States (where our and our suppliers’ servers and databases are located and operated). The data protection and related laws and regulations of the United States might not be as comprehensive as those in the country from which you access the Services.
The information that we may collect from or about you broadly falls into the following categories:
Information that you voluntarily provide to us, for example, your contact information, project specifications (when you use our online tools), and job applications. Information that we passively collect through your use of the Services, for example, data collected by the servers used to operate the Services (e.g., IP addresses), data collected by cookies, and data collected by analytics and advertising services.
Personal Information
You can visit our website without providing us with your personal information, but you will be required to provide personal information in order to submit job applications and to use certain other tools and features of the services. Envotec will collect any information from or about you that you voluntarily share with us, which may include your name, email address, physical address, and telephone number.
For example, we collect your personal information when you submit a job application, when you submit a Contact Form, when you provide User-Generated Content (as discussed below), and when you respond to communications from us (e.g., surveys, promotional offers, and reservation confirmations). We will use collected personal information as described below, including to provide you with the information or services that you request, to communicate with you and send you information and materials that you request or that we believe are relevant or may be of interest to you, and, if you have subscribed to our online software services, to create an account for you, subject in each case to applicable laws and the terms of the Privacy Policy. If you provide your mobile or other telephone number to us, you consent to receiving telephone calls from us at that telephone number as described below.
Find a Sales Representative
To find a Envotec sales representative, you will need to enter your city or zip code and will need to identify the product line(s) in which you are interested. We will use this information to identify sales representatives working your area.
Career Opportunities
We may use your job application to evaluate your qualifications and to otherwise consider or respond to your application for employment. Your submission of a job application does not in any way require Envotec to review that application or consider you for employment.
Mailing List Information
If you sign up or otherwise opt in to receive promotions from us, you will need to submit your email address. You may also provide your name, physical address, telephone number, company name, and other information. Envotec will use this information to send you promotional and other electronic and hard copy communications. You have the opportunity to opt-out of receiving any promotional emails from us at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions contained in the applicable email.
IP Addresses and Related Data
When you use the Services or visit our websites, we may automatically collect certain information from your computer or device. Specifically, the servers used to operate and provide the Services may collect data pertaining to you and the equipment, software, and communication methods you use to access the Internet and the Services, including Internet protocol (“IP”) addresses assigned to the computers and other devices from where you access the Internet, your Internet service provider (ISP), your device ID number, your approximate geographic location, your browser type, the pages you access on the Services, the websites you access before and after visiting the Services, the length of time you spend on the Services, date and time stamps, and clickstream data.
Envotec may use this information to administer the Services and its servers, to generate statistical information, to monitor and analyze Services traffic and usage patterns, to monitor and prevent fraud, to investigate complaints and violations of our policies, and to improve the Service content and the products, services, materials, and other content that we describe or make available through the Services (see also how we use Google Analytics as described below). We may combine this information with other Collected Information (including personal information) and information obtained from third parties for the purposes discussed below. The suppliers that we use to provide the Services may collect information about your visits to the Services and other websites. Some of this information may be collected using cookies and similar tracking technologies as explained further below under “Cookies.”
Location Information
In addition to the approximate geographic location information collected as discussed above, we may, with your consent, access more specific location information to enhance the user experience and increase the usefulness of the Services. This includes both geographical location information that you input using the Services (e.g., when you enter your zip code, city, or physical address) and geographical location information collected by device-based location services (including GPS data). You may choose to allow us to access your location by granting the Services access to your location when prompted or through your device’s location services settings.
Cookies
The Services automatically use cookies to track the use of our Services in order to facilitate and enhance the user experience on our Services and for other purposes as described below. “Cookies” are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. The Services may use both cookies that we implement and cookies implemented by our suppliers and other third parties. We use cookies to track when and how you and others access and use our Services, to learn which pages of the Services are popular and which are not, to learn which search terms are used to find the Services, and to learn which websites direct you to the Services. We also use cookies to improve your enjoyment of the Services and to help display information on the Services, for example, by remembering your contact or other information when you access or use the Services.
Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can disable this function so that your browser will not accept cookies. Please be aware that disabling this function may impact your use and enjoyment of the Services. Our Services suppliers may use cookies and other tracking technologies, such as pixel tags, to track Services visitors across the Internet to understand how you get to the Services. We do not have access or control over these cookies and this Privacy Policy does not cover the use of third-party cookies.
Due to this automatic collection, we do not currently honor do-not-track requests.
Analytics
The Services uses third-party analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to collect and process data (including personal information) about your use of the Services, including when you visit the Services, URLs of the websites that you visit prior to visiting the Services and when you visit those websites, and IP addresses assigned to the devices from where you access the Internet. Our analytics providers may set and read cookies to collect this data and your web browser will automatically send data collected by those cookies to our analytics providers. Our analytics providers use this data to provide us with reports that we will use to improve the Services’ structure and content. For more information on how Google uses this data, visit Google’s Privacy Policy and Google’s page on “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps”. To prevent this data from being used by Google Analytics, follow the instructions to download and install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for each web browser you use. Using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on will not prevent Envotec from using other analytics tools and will not prevent data from being sent to the Services itself or to Google. You may disable cookies as discussed above, but that may impact your use and enjoyment of the Services.
Google Analytics’ Advertising Features
We have also enabled and implemented the following Google Analytics Advertising Features: Remarketing with Google Analytics, and Demographics and Interest Reporting. Remarketing with Analytics uses Google Analytics cookies to serve advertisements to you across the Internet based on your visits to the Services. Demographics and Interest Reporting uses a third-party cookie to collect information about our Services traffic by tracking users across websites and across time, which generates a report for us to better understand our Services users. Segments allows us to isolate and analyze subsets of Services users by sorting our Google Analytics data. To opt out of remarketing advertising provided through Google, to customize your ad preferences, or to limit Google’s collection or use this information, visit Google’s Safety Center and Google’s Ad Settings and follow Google’s personalized ad opt-out instructions. Opting out will not affect your use of the Services.
Advertising Networks, Personalized Advertising, Remarketing, and Retargeting
From time to time the Services may use or participate in advertising networks and related advertising services that are managed and provided by third-party advertising servers, advertising agencies, technology vendors, and research firms, including, for example, Google AdWords and advertising retargeting services provided by Facebook. These services collect information about your visits to and interactions with the Services and other websites and will use that information to target advertisements for goods and services. The information collected may be associated with your personal information. These targeted advertisements may appear on the Services or on other websites. Advertising networks often gather data about consumers who view advertisements to make inferences about a consumer’s interests and preferences, which enables their computers to deliver advertisements directly targeted to the consumer’s specific interests. This practice is often referred to as “online behavioral advertising.” For example, a third-party advertising network might collect the type of Internet browser you use, the type of computer operating system you use, the domain name of a website you visit, whether or not you visit specific pages of the Services and other websites, the location of your Internet service provider, the date and time of a visit to a website, and other interactions between you and a website.
With respect to Google AdWords, Google uses your Internet searches, cookies, and similar identifiers (e.g., pixel tags) to collect information about your visits to the Services and your interaction with our products and services to generate targeted advertisements to you on other websites that you visit across the Internet. To opt out of remarketing advertising provided through Google, to customize your ad preferences, or to limit Google’s collection or use this information, visit Google’s Safety Center and Google’s Ad Settings and follow Google’s personalized ad opt-out instructions. Opting out will not affect your use of the Services.
If you have a Facebook account but do not wish Facebook to collect data relating to you via the Services, we suggest that you: (a) hide social media platform plug-ins using an ad blocker; (b) always log off completely from Facebook before visiting other websites and delete all related cookies; and, (c) where the option is available, disable the advertising services and networks operated by Facebook.
To change your preferences with respect to certain online ads and to obtain more information about third-party ad networks and online behavioral advertising, please visit the National Advertising Initiative Consumer opt-out page or the Digital Advertising Alliance Self-Regulatory Program. Please remember that changing your settings with individual browsers or ad networks will not necessarily carry over to other browsers or ad networks. As a result, depending on the opt-outs you request, you may still see our ads from time to time.
Embedded Content
The Services may incorporate content, including feeds scripts embedded in the Services’ code and visible content (for example, videos), provided by third parties. In some cases, those third parties collect data about how you interact with their content. For example, YouTube may collect or otherwise have access to usage data on videos embedded on the Services as described in YouTube’s Privacy Policy.
In addition to the uses and disclosures described above, Envotec and its suppliers may use and disclose Collected Information as described below. We do not use, sell, rent, loan, or otherwise disclose any Collected Information except as stated in this Privacy Policy and as permitted by applicable law.
Purpose Collected & Communication With You
If you contact us for support or assistance in using the Services, we may use Collected Information to determine whether or not your system meets the minimum requirements needed to access and use the Services and otherwise to contact you regarding your request. We may use Collected Information to notify you of changes made to the Services (for example, changes to this Privacy Policy) and, if you sign up or otherwise opt in to receive promotions from us, to send you promotional materials and other communications as described above. If you provide us with your telephone number using our online contact form or otherwise, we may call you at that telephone number for customer service purposes and in response to your questions or comments.
Sharing Collected Information with Our Suppliers, Sales Representatives, and Affiliates
We may share Collected Information with our Services management and hosting suppliers, marketing and public relations service providers, online storefront providers, webinar providers, providers of Envotec gear, payment processors, email service suppliers, and other suppliers as necessary for us to provide the Services and our products and services to you, to engage in the use and sharing of Collected Information as permitted by this Privacy Policy, and as may be otherwise permitted by applicable law. We require our suppliers to comply with all applicable data privacy laws and regulations. Our suppliers are authorized to and may use and disclose Collected Information as necessary for them to provide the applicable services to us and as provided by their own privacy policies as noted above.
Evaluation and Improvement of the Services, User Demographics, and Aggregation
We may use and disclose Collected Information: to analyze, develop, and improve the content, materials, products, and services that we make available; to inform marketing and communication plans and strategies; to understand the Services’ demographics and users’ preferences; to evaluate user needs and customize Services content, promotional emails, and your browsing experience; and for other legitimate and lawful business purposes. We may also aggregate personal information and other Collected Information to create aggregate data on Services users, which describes users as a group but does not reveal the identity of individual users. We may use aggregate data to understand users’ needs, to determine user demographics and usage patterns, to determine what kinds of products and services we can provide, and to improve and enrich our products, our services, and the Services. Relatedly, we may provide aggregate information about our customers, Services users, Services traffic patterns, and related information to our affiliates and other third parties. We may also combine Collected Information with other information in our possession, such as information pertaining to your account(s) with Envotec, for purposes of using information as described in this Privacy Policy.
Business Transfers
All Collected Information is exclusively the property of Envotec but if Envotec undergoes a change in control, acquisition, merger, reorganization, or asset sale, all information owned by or in the possession, custody, or control of Envotec may be transferred, sold, shared, or otherwise disclosed to the successor of that transaction, which successor will be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy as it applies to that information.
Security and Protection of Rights
We may use Collected Information and share it with third parties to the extent permitted by applicable law, including in the event of a subpoena, court order, or law enforcement request. Envotec will use Collected Information and share it with third parties if we believe doing so is necessary to operate the Site or to protect our rights or the rights of others, including disclosing information necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action in the event of a violation of our contracts, terms, or policies.
The Services is not directed toward children under 13 years of age and Envotec does not knowingly collect or use information from children under 13 through the Services. If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 has provided personal information to us through the Service, please contact us at admin@envotec.global and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete that information.
Envotec does not guarantee that loss, misuse, or alteration of Collected Information will not occur, but we have appropriate technical and organizational security measures in place to help protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of information under our control. The storage and communication of information can never be completely secure, so we do not guarantee that communications or other information that you submit or that are otherwise provided to us will be completely secure. If you become aware of any breach of Services security or this Privacy Policy, please notify us at admin@envotec.global immediately. If our security system is breached, we will notify you of the breach only if and to the extent required under applicable law.
The Services may link to, or be linked to, websites not maintained or controlled by Envotec. Envotec is not responsible for the privacy policies or practices of any third parties or third-party websites, including any linked or linking websites. To the extent that you provide personal or other information to any third parties, those third parties’ privacy policies apply. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of each website that you visit.
