Privacy Policy and Cookies

On the 25th of May, 2018, the European Union enacted its most stringent data protection laws in twenty years: GDPR, which stands for General Data Protection Regulation. These new laws carry stiff penalties for those companies who do not comply with them. System Verification is in compliance with these laws and here we outline in detail the extent of our compliance. Some of these might seem generic or self-evident, but we want you to know that System Verification takes your privacy seriously, and we are completely transparent about the integrity with which we handle your personal data when you interact with us.

In this data protection statement, we’ll go into detail in describing the way in which we handle your personal data and details in connection with the services that System Verification offers.

System Verification’s data protection statement includes the following

  • How System Verification handles our clients’ personal details
  • What types of personal details and data System Verification collects on our clients
  • The purposes for which System Verification can use clients’ personal data
  • Clients’ rights pertaining to personal data collection

Personal data we collect

System Verification collects data so that our services run efficiently and to give you the best possible experience. Some of this data we actually get directly from you. For example, when you register for a System Verification event, seek out a service or contact us for support.

We get some of this information via keeping track of how you interact with our services, for example using cookies on our site, and receiving usage data from software on your device.

When we process your personal data, we do it either with your direct consent or on an as-needed basis. The data we collect is often motivated by the context of your interactions with System Verification, your choices, including your personal privacy settings, and the services and functions you use.

How we use your personal data

We use information that we collect for these basic purposes, which are described more in detail herein:

  • to run our business, and to continually provide, improve and adapt the services we offer.
  • to fulfil our commitments as a client, as a supplier and as an employer.
  • to communicate on all channels, to send out invitations and newsletters

It is for these reasons that we combine the data we collect, to provide you with a smoother, more consistent and personalized experience. We use data to keep in touch with you. For example, we can contact you by [email, phone or on other channels] to answer your questions about our offers and our services. We may send newsletters that you no longer want to receive, and you can easily unsubscribe from any or all of System Verification’s communications. If that’s the case, we will delete your personal data.

The notices you see on our sites and in social media channels might pop-up on your feed because of data we’ve received from you. Maybe it was your hobbies, your job title, your business, your search queries or from content you subscribe to that put you in our sights.

These posts can also be shown because of info we’ve gleaned about you with the help of demographic data, GPS data (when possible), search queries, usage data from our website and from our advertisers’ websites. We call these “interest-based advertising” in this policy.

Why we share your personal data

It can be necessary at times for us to share your personal data with our affiliated partners. In these instances, we share information about you with the companies that we are certain are compliant with our data protection policy. These are not permitted to use your personal data for any other purpose. Sometimes it happens that we also use your personal data as a part of a common business transaction, a cooperation or common sale.

To sum it up, we’re going to need to share your personal data or track it when we realize it is necessary in order to:

  • Follow the law or legal process and share information with the police or other authorities.
  • Protect our clients, for example, to prevent spam or scams or to prevent death or serious injuries.
  • Provide security for our services, sometimes preventing or stopping an attack on our system or network.
  • Protect copyright, property or trademarks belonging to System Verification, including implementing the terms of use which our services are used.
  • If we learn that someone is using our services to distribute stolen intellectual property or physical property, System Verification will hand over the matter to the proper authorities.

Please note that some of our sites link out to products and services from third parties whose data integrity policy may differ from System Verification’s. If you share your personal data with these products, your data will be managed with their respective privacy policy.
