Your privacy is very important to us and we have the highest respect for the confidentiality of your personal information. The information we receive depends on what you do while visiting our site. We will not obtain personally identifying information about you unless you choose to provide it. If you are browsing our site anonymously, we will automatically collect some non-identifying statistical information to help us measure which pages of our website are visited and how long visitors use the site. This information includes data such as your IP address, the time and date, pages entered and time spent on individual pages. Your IP address is not linked to anything personally identifiable.

 

INFORMATION USE

If you request information from us or wish to access certain features of the site, you will be asked to provide personally identifying information so that we can respond effectively to your requests and needs. We will never share your information with anyone who isn’t directly providing service and support on behalf of Valasys. If you provide us with identifiable information, we may attempt to contact you occasionally to determine if our service meets your expectations, offer additional assistance or notify you about special promotions.

 

OPTING OUT

Most clients tell us they appreciate receiving our news and promotions; however, we believe it’s very important for you to be able to choose whether you receive periodic mailings and information from us. You can choose to opt out at any time by simply replying to a mailing to inform us of your preference. All of our mailings will clearly explain how you can easily opt out and stop receiving information from us.

 

DATA SECURITY

To help protect your confidentiality, Valasys employs security safeguards; however, we can’t eliminate all security risks. For instance, Valasys’s website may contain links to other websites. We have no responsibility or control over linked websites and their privacy policies or the way they collect and control your personal information. We encourage you to learn about the privacy practices of any website before providing personally identifying information.

Valasys maintains adequate data security measures to protect information against unauthorized access and disclosure. These measures include the implementation of commercially reasonable technical, physical and administrative data security safeguards. Valasys requires employees to complete appropriate training on data management and security practices. Valasys also manages a service provider due diligence and oversight program to ensure that our vendors likewise employ adequate data collection, processing, transfer, management and security measures in carrying out their services on our behalf.

There is no such thing as “guaranteed security”, whether conducting business online or offline. Having established this fact, Valasys employs commercially reasonable and appropriate data security safeguards that are consistent with our business operations and generally accepted industry standards.

Data security is our priority and we commit ourselves to safeguarding our customers’ data. We do this by :

  1. Establishing policies and procedures for securely managing information.
  2. Limiting employee access to sensitive information.
  3. Protecting against unauthorized access to customer data by using data encryption, authentication, and virus detection technology, as required.
  4. Requiring service providers with whom we do business to comply with relevant Data Privacy legal and regulatory requirements.
  5. Monitoring our websites through recognized online privacy and security organizations.
  6. Conducting background checks on employees and providing Data Privacy training to our team members.
  7. Continually assessing our Data Privacy, information management, and data security practices.

 

OUR COMMITMENT TO PRIVACY

In summary, we believe strongly in respecting your privacy and your wishes about the use of your personal information. While we may need to change this policy from time to time as new situations arise, we will never change our commitment to protecting your confidentiality and informing you of how we intend to use any information you provide to us. Our most up-to-date privacy policy will always be posted here.
