2. Who and What This Policy Covers
This policy applies to anyone who visits our website or other online properties and shares personal information with us in the process. By "personal information" we mean information that identifies you or that could reasonably be linked to you. The goal of this policy is to be clear about what we gather, how we use it, and the safeguards we put around it.
3. Information We Collect and How We Use It
We try to keep the data we collect to what we actually need. The next two subsections walk through what is gathered automatically and what you might choose to share with us.
3.1 Information gathered automatically when you browse
If you only read pages on our site, our servers still log a few technical details that help the site function and help us understand how it is being used. Those details include:
- Your IP address, used so that page responses reach the correct device.
- Basic information about the browser and device you are using.
- The date and time of your visit.
- The pages or services you accessed.
- The referring URL, if a link from another site brought you to ours.
On its own, this information is not used to identify you. We use it to keep the site running well, to spot problems, and to make ongoing improvements for the benefit of clients and visitors.
3.2 Information you choose to share with us
If you go beyond browsing, for example by submitting a form, requesting a proposal, joining our mailing list, or contacting us, we may also receive:
- Your name, business name, email address, phone number, and the contents of any messages you send us.
- The contents of live chats or calls with a Vividior team member.
- Information about your event, property, brand, sponsorship goals, budget, or assets that you share so we can scope our services.
- Information you provide when you set up an account or client portal profile.
- Anything you enter into one of our online forms, including proposal requests, sponsorship inquiries, in-kind and gifting inquiries, newsletter sign-ups, and contact forms.
We use this information to respond to you, deliver the services you have requested, scope and price engagements, address questions or concerns, and improve our services. If you have an account or have opted in, we may also use it to send you marketing communications and updates, and to pre-fill familiar fields so you do not have to retype them.
We hold the information we collect for as long as we reasonably need it for legitimate business purposes, or longer where the law requires.
3.3 How we share information
We sometimes share information you provide with other parties when needed for a legitimate business reason, such as facilitating a sponsorship introduction you have asked us to pursue.
As an intermediary, a core part of our service is connecting parties. Where you have engaged us to broker a sponsorship or in-kind arrangement, we may share relevant details about your event, brand, assets, or sponsorship goals with prospective counterparties in order to facilitate an introduction. We share what is reasonably necessary for that purpose and, where appropriate, on a confidential basis.
Like most businesses, Vividior also relies on outside companies to handle specific tasks for us. Examples include website hosting, analytics, payment processing, email delivery, and customer-relationship management. These providers receive only what they need to perform their job and are required by contract not to use the information for any other purpose. You can opt out of certain uses at any time, although doing so may limit our ability to deliver the services you have asked for (see Section 12).
We do not sell your personal information for money. Section 13 has additional details about the categories of personal information we collect and share under state privacy laws.
4. Personal Information and Your Choices
Sharing personal information online is always your decision.
"Personal information" generally means information that is, or could reasonably be, tied to a specific person, such as a name, business email, or phone number. As noted above, none of that is collected automatically when you browse our site; it only reaches us when you choose to provide it.
You can choose not to email us, join our list, or fill in an online form. You can also reach us by mail using the contact details in Section 12. Opting out of those activities will not stop you from browsing content available on the site.
If we receive a subpoena, court order, or similar legal demand, your personal information may be disclosed in connection with that process, and we may not be able to give you advance notice.
5. Information Collected When You Request or Engage Our Services
If you request a proposal, engage us for services, or set up a client account, we will ask you to provide the information we need to work with you, including your contact and business details and information about your event, brand, or sponsorship needs. If you become a paying client, billing and payment information is collected and processed through our payment processor.
Payment details are passed to our payment processor to complete transactions. Vividior does not control how those third parties use the information they receive. To help protect you, payment details are collected and stored using encryption.
6. Reviewing and Correcting Your Information
You can ask about the personal information we hold about you using the contact details in Section 12. If you believe any of that information is inaccurate, you can ask us to correct it by emailing or writing to us with enough detail to show what is wrong. We will take reasonable steps to confirm your identity before granting access or making changes.
If your information changes, you can update or remove it by editing your account profile, and you can opt out of certain communications from us (see Section 12).
7. Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising Choices
To make the site work and to keep improving it, we and our service providers use cookies and similar technologies to gather aggregated information, remember your preferences, personalize what you see, and measure how well our content performs. Cookies are small files that your browser stores on your device. We mainly use them to assign and recognize a randomly generated identifier. See our Cookie Policy for full detail.
Categories of cookies we use
- Strictly necessary. Required for core site features such as remembering your privacy choices, keeping you signed in, or processing a form submission. They do not store information that identifies you personally.
- Performance. These let us count visits, identify traffic sources, and understand which pages are most and least used. The information collected is aggregated and does not identify individual visitors.
- Functional. These enable enhanced features and personalization. Disabling them can break some on-site features.
- Targeting. These may be set by advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you more relevant advertising on other websites. Disabling them means you will see less targeted advertising.
Our systems do not currently respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals. You can disable certain tracking by turning off cookies in your browser, although doing so may affect your experience on our site.
To learn more about interest-based advertising or to manage your preferences, you can use the opt-out tools provided by the Digital Advertising Alliance (optout.aboutads.info) or the Network Advertising Initiative (optout.networkadvertising.org).
8. Electronic Communications
When you visit our site or send us an email, you are communicating with us electronically and consent to receive electronic communications from us in return. We may communicate with you by email or by posting notices on our site. To help us improve the relevance of our messages, we may receive a confirmation when you open emails from us, if your device supports it. If you would prefer not to receive marketing emails, please use the unsubscribe link in any of our marketing messages or contact us.
9. Security and Social Media
We use reasonable safeguards designed to protect the integrity of our site, prevent the corruption of data, and limit unauthorized access to our systems. Even with these measures, any information transmitted online could be intercepted, collected, or misused by a third party. No system can guarantee that information sent over the internet will be completely secure, and by transmitting information to us you accept that we cannot warrant the security of that transmission.
You can also help protect your information by choosing a strong, unique password and not reusing it on other sites; not sharing your password with anyone else; signing out of your account before stepping away from a shared device; and closing your browser when moving between websites.
10. A Note for Parents and Guardians
Our website is designed for a general business audience and is not intended to collect information from minors. While we do not target our site to children, it is possible that minors may visit it and have basic technical information collected automatically (see Section 3). We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of thirteen (13). If we learn that we have received personal information from a child under 13, we will delete that information from our records consistent with applicable law.
11. Links to Other Sites
This policy applies only to Vividior's sites. Our pages may link to third-party websites and to social-media platforms where Vividior maintains a presence. We are not responsible for the content of those other sites and are not liable for any damages arising from them. Links are provided as a convenience. When you follow a link to another site, you leave a Vividior site, this policy stops applying, and the destination site's privacy policy takes over. We encourage you to review that policy before sharing any personal information.
