How We Handle User Information
We gather information to strengthen our services and provide a more customized experience for users. Collected data may include personal identifiers such as your name, contact information, and employment-related details, along with other information you choose to share. We also record engagement with our services, including searches performed, pages viewed, and features used. To deliver even more relevant experiences, we may supplement this data with insights from reputable third-party sources. At times, collected information may be anonymized or aggregated, ensuring it cannot be traced back to you personally. This form of data is valuable for purposes such as market analysis, service optimization, and operational improvements. By combining these insights, we can continually refine our offerings and deliver content that aligns with user needs.
Aggregated Data and Service Obligations
Beyond personal identifiers, we also rely on Aggregated Data information that reflects collective trends without pointing to individual users. This can include data such as average time spent on features, overall traffic patterns, or demographic summaries. Derived from Personal Information, this type of data is anonymized so that no user can be personally identified. Aggregated insights allow us to assess system performance, guide enhancements, and better allocate resources. At times, specific Personal Information may be legally necessary or contractually required. If you decide not to provide the requested details, we may be unable to continue offering certain services. In such circumstances, cancellation may be unavoidable, and by using our services, you acknowledge and accept this requirement.
Our Approach to Collecting Data
To enhance user experience and deliver services efficiently, we collect Personal Data through multiple channels.
- Website Interactions: When you use our site, we may automatically gather Personal and Non-Personal Data. Examples include Technical Information and Usage Information. This process relies on cookies, tracking technologies, and server logs. Data may also be collected from other sites integrated with our tools.
- Third-Party Contributions: In addition, we may receive information from trusted third parties, such as analytics providers. For our clients, we may acquire Business and Contact Data from external sources, even about individuals who have not directly engaged with our platform.
- Processing for Clients: Where services are provided on behalf of clients, we handle Personal Data in line with their instructions only, without forming an independent relationship. If you wish to review, correct, or delete your Personal Data, we will direct you to the client, although in limited cases we may facilitate requests ourselves.
Purposes for Using Your Personal Data
We handle your personal information with defined objectives, balancing functionality, compliance, and safety.
- Providing Services: Information is used to deliver the Services you request, including through third-party providers when required. Without it, the Services cannot operate correctly.
- Customer Assistance: Your data is essential for responding to concerns, managing requests, and resolving issues. Without it, effective support cannot be given.
- Regulatory and Contract Enforcement: We process information to prevent policy violations, uphold contractual obligations, and manage billing. Without this, fair and lawful operation is not possible.
- Protecting Security: Your data helps us detect fraud, block malware, verify identities, and reinforce overall protections. Without processing, system safety would be at risk.
- Growth and Development: Usage analysis enables us to improve features and explore new solutions. If additional purposes emerge beyond those stated, we will notify you and allow you to limit processing, though this may reduce your access to certain services.
Circumstances of Information Sharing
Your personal information may be shared with certain third parties when there is a legitimate need to do so. Examples include potential employers considering your profile, affiliates assisting with business operations, or contracted service providers performing services on our behalf. We also reserve the right to disclose data if required to meet legal or regulatory obligations, or if necessary to enforce agreements, address fraud, or ensure the safety of our users and systems. If our business is involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or similar corporate change, your data may be transferred as part of the transaction. While each receiving party maintains responsibility for its own privacy practices, we strive to ensure that every disclosure is limited, justified, and consistent with our obligations to protect your information.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on applicable laws, you may be entitled to exercise rights related to the handling of your personal data. These may include requesting access to your records, making corrections, asking for outdated details to be updated, requesting deletion, or opting out of certain data uses. These rights may differ depending on the regulations where you reside and may be subject to specific exceptions. To exercise these rights, you may contact us at admin@vintry.ai, and we will respond within the timeframe required by law.
Third-Party Links
Our website and services may contain links that lead to external platforms or third-party providers. Since these sites operate under their own privacy terms, we do not control or take responsibility for their practices, content, or security measures. Although we include links to reputable sources, it is important that you review the privacy statements of any third-party websites you visit before interacting with them or sharing information.
Safeguarding and Retaining Data
Your personal information is protected through strong protocols designed to prevent unauthorized access, improper use, or tampering. We employ technical tools, organizational controls, and physical security to ensure protection. Even with these measures, it is important to note that no system is completely secure. We only store personal data for as long as needed to provide services, meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, and fulfil contractual commitments. Archived or cached versions may exist temporarily before being securely erased.
Policy Revisions
This Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect changes in business practices, new technologies, or updated legal standards. Any modifications will be posted, and we encourage you to check back periodically for updates.
California Data Rights
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), residents of California may request access to their personal information, ask for deletion, or opt out of sales of personal data. You can exercise these rights by contacting us at admin@vintry.ai.
