If you do not agree with the terms, do not access or use the Services, Websites or any other aspect of SVEXA’s business.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third party applications or software that integrate with the Services through the SVEXA platform (“Third Party Services”), or any other third party products, services or businesses.

SVEXA may collect and receive user data and other information and data (“Other Information”) in a variety of ways:

• User Data. Users routinely submit data to SVEXA when using the Services.
• Other Information. SVEXA also collects, generates and/or receives Other Information:
  1. Account Information. To create or update an account, you or your Team Manager/Coach supply SVEXA with an email address, phone number, password, domain and/or similar account details.
  2. Usage Information.
     • Services Metadata. When a User interacts with the Services, metadata is generated that provides additional context about the way Users work. For example, SVEXA logs the features, data, content and links you interact with, the types of files shared, content of messages, and what Third Party Services are used (if any).
     • Log data. As with most websites and technology services delivered over the Internet, our servers automatically collect information when you access or use our Websites or Services and record it in log files. This log data may include the Internet Protocol (IP) address, the address of the web page visited before using the Website or Services, browser type and settings, the date and time the Services were used, information about browser configuration and plugins, language preferences and cookie data.
     • Device information. SVEXA collects information about devices accessing the Services, including type of device, what operating system is used, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this Other Information often depends on the type of device used and its settings.
     • Location information. We receive information from you and other third-parties that helps us approximate your location. We may, for example, use a business address you’ve provided, or an IP address received from your browser or device to determine approximate location. SVEXA may also collect location information from devices in accordance with the consent process provided by your device.
  3. Cookie Information. SVEXA uses cookies and similar technologies in our Websites and Services that help us collect Other Information. The Websites and Services may also include cookies and similar tracking technologies of third parties, which may collect Other Information about you via the Websites and Services and across other websites and online services.

  5. Third Party Data. SVEXA may receive data about organizations, industries, Website visitors, marketing campaigns and other matters related to our business from parent corporation(s), affiliates and subsidiaries, our partners or others that we use to make our own information better or more useful. This data may be combined with Other Information we collect and might include aggregate level data, such as which IP addresses correspond to zip codes or countries. Or it might be more specific: for example, how well an online marketing or email campaign performed.
  6. Additional Information Provided to SVEXA. We receive Other Information when submitted to our Websites or if you respond to our advertising, participate in a focus group, contest, activity or event, apply for a job, request support, interact with our social media accounts or otherwise communicate with SVEXA.

Generally, no one is under a statutory or contractual obligation to provide any User Data or Other Information (collectively, “Information”). However, certain Information is collected automatically and, if some Information, such as Account setup details, is not provided, we may be unable to provide the Services.

User Data will be used by SVEXA in accordance with User’s instructions, including any applicable terms in the Terms of Service, and as required by applicable law. SVEXA is a processor of User Data and User is the controller. User may, for example, use the Services to configure settings, access, modify, export, share and remove User Data and otherwise apply its policies to the Services.

SVEXA uses Other Information in furtherance of our legitimate interests in operating our Services, Websites and business. More specifically, SVEXA uses Other Information:

• To provide, update, maintain and protect our Services, Websites and business. This includes use of Other Information to support delivery of the Services, prevent or address service errors, security or technical issues, analyze and monitor usage, trends and other activities or at a User’s request.
• As required by applicable law, legal process or regulation.
• To communicate with you by responding to your requests, comments and questions. If you contact us, we may use your Other Information to respond.
• To develop and provide search, learning and productivity tools and additional features. SVEXA tries to make the Services as useful as possible for each User. For example, we may improve search functionality by using Other Information to help determine and rank the relevance of content, reports or expertise to a User, make Services suggestions based on historical use and predictive models, identify organizational trends and insights, to customize a Services experience or create new productivity features and products.
• To send emails and other communications. We may send you service, technical and other administrative emails, messages and other types of communications. We may also contact you to inform you about changes in our Services, our Services offerings, and important Services-related notices, such as security and fraud notices. These communications are considered part of the Services and you may not opt out of them. In addition, we sometimes send emails about new product features, promotional communications or other news about SVEXA. These are marketing messages so you can control whether you receive them.
• For billing, account management and other administrative matters. SVEXA may need to contact you for invoicing, account management and similar reasons and we use account data to administer accounts and keep track of billing and payments.
• To investigate and help prevent security issues and abuse.

If Information is aggregated or de-identified so it is no longer reasonably associated with an identified or identifiable natural person, SVEXA may use it for any business purpose. To the extent Information is associated with an identified or identifiable natural person and is protected as personal data under applicable data protection law, it is referred to in this Privacy Policy as “Personal Data.”

SVEXA will retain User Data in accordance with a User’s instructions, including any applicable terms in the Terms of Service, and as required by applicable law. The deletion of User Data and other use of the Services by User may result in the deletion and/or de-identification of certain associated Other Information. SVEXA may retain Other Information pertaining to you for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. This may include keeping your Other Information after you have deactivated your account for the period of time needed for SVEXA to pursue legitimate business interests, conduct audits, comply with (and demonstrate compliance with) legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.
