1. INTRODUCTION

Contemi Solutions and its subsidiaries are committed to protecting personal data and respecting your privacy.

This privacy statement describes how we collect, use, share, protect, and otherwise process personal information about you. This statement applies to personal information that you provide to us:

  • as a visitor to our websites or as a user of our client portals;
  • when you send us personal information in connection with an inquiry about Contemi providing products and services directly to you;
  • as a visitor to our premises; and
  • as a contact at one of our clients, potential clients, suppliers or other business partners.

Notice to Customers of Contemi Clients
Where we collect personal information on behalf of our clients, Contemi acts as a “data processor” (as defined in the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)) on behalf of its clients and this privacy policy does not apply. Customers of our clients should consult directly with the applicable client to obtain a copy of the privacy policy issued by the client as “controllers”(as described in GDPR) which will apply in such instance.

2. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT FROM YOU?

If you are not a registered client for our site, there is no personal information we can retain or view regarding yourself.

If you are a client with a registered account, your personal information can be accessed by:

  • Our system administrators.
  • Our supporters when they (in order to provide support) need to get the information about the client accounts and access.
6. HOW WILL WE USE YOUR INFORMATION?

We may use your information for the following purposes:

  • to personalise and customise your experience with us; conduct research and analysis; and fulfil orders and requests for products, services, or information from you or the organization that you represent.
  • to send you marketing communications regarding our products and services.
  • for ordinary business purposes, including to operate and administer the products and services provided by Contemi Solutions in accordance with the terms of any agreements that we may have with our clients.
  • to operate, administer and improve our website and premises and other aspects of the way in which we conduct our operations.
  • to protect our business from fraud, money-laundering, breach of confidence, theft of proprietary materials and other financial or business crimes.
  • to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, and to bring and defend legal claims where the information is pertinent (including to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain).
  • to comply with our internal policies and maintain our records or as otherwise required by applicable data protection laws.
  • to respond to requests from our clients that are not already addressed above.

We may from time to time be required to review information about you held in our systems – including the contents of and other information related to your email and other communications with us – for compliance and business-protection purposes as described above.

This may include reviews for the purposes of disclosure of information relevant to litigation and/or reviews of records relevant to internal or external regulatory or criminal investigations.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, these reviews will be conducted in a reasonable and proportionate way, and approved at an appropriate level of management. They may ultimately involve disclosure of your information to governmental agencies and litigation counterparties as set out below.

Your emails and other communications may also be accessed occasionally by persons other than the member of staff with whom they are exchanged for ordinary business management purposes (for example, where necessary when a staff member is out of the office or has left our organisation).

We will only process your personal information as necessary to pursue the purposes described above.

In exceptional circumstances, we may also be required by law to disclose or otherwise process your personal information.

We will tell you, when we ask you to provide information about yourself, if:

  • provision of the requested information is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation, or
  • it is purely voluntary and there will be no implications if you decline to provide the information.

If you are uncertain as to Contemi’s need for information that we request from you, please contact us at info@contemi.com for more information

7. HOW LONG WE RETAIN YOUR DATA

When you submit a support ticket or a comment, its metadata is retained until (if) you tell us to remove it. We use this data so that we can recognize you and approve your comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.

If you register on our website, we also store the personal information you provide in your user profile. You can see, edit, or delete your personal information at any time (except changing your username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

8. SECURITY MEASURES

We use the SSL/HTTPS protocol throughout our site. This encrypts our user communications with the servers so that personal identifiable information is not captured/hijacked by third parties without authorization.

In case of a data breach, system administrators will immediately take all needed steps to ensure system integrity, will contact affected users and will attempt to reset passwords if needed.

9. YOUR DATA RIGHTS
GENERAL RIGHTS

If you have a registered account on this website or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we retain, including any additional data you have provided to us.


You can also request that we erase any of the personal data we have stored. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. In short, we cannot erase data that is vital to you being an active customer (i.e. basic account information like an email address).

If you wish that all of your data is erased, we will no longer be able to offer any support or other product-related services to you.

GDPR RIGHTS

Your privacy is critically important to us. Going forward with the GDPR we aim to support the GDPR standard. Contemi permits residents of the European Union to use its Service. Therefore, it is the intent of Contemi to comply with the European General Data Protection Regulation. For more details please see here: EU GDPR Information Portal.

10. RELEASE OF YOUR DATA FOR LEGAL PURPOSES

At times it may become necessary or desirable to Contemi, for legal purposes, to release your information in response to a request from a government agency or a private litigant. You agree that we may disclose your information to a third party where we believe, in good faith, that it is desirable to do so for the purposes of a civil action, criminal investigation, or other legal matter. In the event that we receive a subpoena affecting your privacy, we may elect to notify you to give you an opportunity to file a motion to quash the subpoena, or we may attempt to quash it ourselves, but we are not obligated to do either. We may also proactively report you, and release your information to, third parties where we believe that it is prudent to do so for legal reasons, such as our belief that you have engaged in fraudulent activities. You release us from any damages that may arise from or relate to the release of your information to a request from law enforcement agencies or private litigants.

Any passing on of personal data for legal purposes will only be done in compliance with laws of the country you reside in.

11. DISCLOSURE AND INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER OF YOUR INFORMATION

We may disclose personal information about you, in accordance with the various legitimate purposes set out above:

  • to the other legal entities within Contemi Solutions.
  • if we receive the personal information from you as a representative of one of our business partners or clients, to your colleagues within the organisation that you represent.
  • to third party service providers who host our website or other information technology systems or otherwise hold or process your information on our behalf, under substantially similar conditions of confidentiality and security.
  • business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with them or you.
  • in connection with a proposed or actual sale, merger, transfer, or exchange of all or a portion of a business or operating unit; in accordance with our legal obligations, including to competent regulatory, prosecuting and other governmental agencies, or litigation counterparties, in any country or territory or where we are otherwise required by law to disclose.

These disclosures may involve transferring your personal information overseas. If you are dealing with us within the European Economic Area (or the UK, after it has left the European Economic Area), you should be aware that this may include transfers to countries outside the European Economic Area / UK, which do not have similarly strict data privacy laws and which may therefore afford a lower standard of personal data protection. In those cases, where we transfer personal data to other legal entities within Contemi or our service providers, we will ensure that our arrangements with them are governed by data transfer agreements, designed to ensure that your personal information is protected, on terms approved for this purpose by the European Commission.

HOW WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION SAFE?

We are committed to protecting your personal information submitted to us. We maintain an information security program including internal policies addressing the acceptable use and access to confidential business information and personal information which may be contained within Contemi’s information systems. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards reasonably designed to guard personal information from loss, misuse or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction of the information that has been provided to us through our on-line services.

CONTACT US

We welcome questions, comments and requests regarding this privacy policy and our processing of personal information. Please email us at info@contemi.com

To make a request for the disclosures or deletion, please email is at info@contemi.com

We will respond to your request consistent with applicable data protection laws. Depending upon the type of business relationship that you have with us, we may need to notify you that additional information is necessary to authenticate your identity for your data security or that we will refer your inquiry to the financial services entity that holds the primary relationship with you.

For requests to delete your personal information as permitted under applicable data protection laws, we will work with you to accomplish your requests unless otherwise exempted under applicable data protection laws, such as compliance with applicable law or regulatory inquiry.
