The purpose of this Privacy Notice is to describe how we collect, use and share information about you through our online interfaces (e.g., websites and mobile applications) owned and controlled by us. The objective of the Privacy Policy is to protect the users of the website and ensure that their personal information is handled in a secure and responsible manner. Please read this Privacy Notice carefully to understand what we do. If you do not understand any aspects of our Privacy Notice, please feel free to contact us at info@iv-sdc.com.

Personal information

In order to access certain features and benefits on our website, you may need to submit, or we may collect personal information such as your name, postal address, email address, IP address, and device identifier, among other things. You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of this information you submit to us. Inaccurate information may affect your ability to use our website, the information you receive when using the website, and our ability to contact you. For example, your email address should be kept current because that is one of the primary manners in which we communicate with you. This contact information is only used to send the requested information to the user or to process the relevant information in accordance with the user request. The information will not be shared with or sold to a third party. For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our website you may need to save your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year. If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed. If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

External links

We may use links to other websites that we believe may be of interest to you. We do not disclose your personal information to these websites. We do not endorse and we are not responsible for their privacy practices. If you decide to click on a link that redirects to one of these websites, we recommend that you review their privacy policy first, in order to understand how they collect and use your personal information.

Embedded content from other websites

Similarly, articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our website we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment. If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

Confidentiality & Security

Standard physical, technical, and administrative security measures will be used to keep your personal information confidential and secure, and we will not share it with third parties, unless it is necessary in special cases, such as a physical threat to you or others, as permitted by the applicable law. It is known that the Internet is not a completely secure environment. Thus, we cannot guarantee the security of personal information, and there is some risk that an unauthorized third party may find a way to circumvent our security system or that transmission of your information over the Internet will be intercepted. It is your responsibility to protect the security of your login information. Please also note that e-mails communications are typically not encrypted and should not be considered secure.

Your right over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
