In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (email, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, vSplash may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries or contact you based on your interest to receive such communications.

Tracking Technologies

Log Files
vSplash also collects anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests, and favorites using log files.

There is also information about your computer hardware, tablet hardware and software that is automatically collected by vSplash. This information can include: (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites, (5) the date and time of access to the Internet site, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) any other similar data and information that may be used in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, vSplash does not draw any conclusions about you. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack. Therefore, vSplash analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. For these purposes, we do link this automatically-collected data to personally identifiable information such as name, email address, address, and phone number.

The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data.

Cookies
The vSplash website uses “cookies” to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web server. Cookies are not used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

Using cookies, vSplash can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize our website users. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. The website user that uses cookies, e.g. does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed, because this is taken over by the website, and the cookie is thus stored on the user’s computer system.

You may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. If you deactivate the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.

Advertising
We partner with a third-party ad network to either display advertising on our website, or to manage our advertising on other sites. Our ad network partner uses cookies and web beacons to collect non-personally identifiable information about your activities on this and other websites to provide you targeted advertising based upon your interests. If you do not wish to have this information used for the purpose of serving you targeted ads, you may opt out by clicking here https://preferences.truste.com/ Data Retention. Please note this does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads.

Clear Gifs (Web Beacons/Web Bugs)
We employ [or our third-party advertising partner employs] a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. web beacons/web bugs), that help us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on web pages, and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We tie [do not tie] the information gathered by clear gifs to our customer’s personally identifiable information.

We use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications, and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

Third Party Tracking Technologies
The use of cookies and web beacons by any tracking utility company is not covered by our privacy statement. We do not have access or control over these third-party tracking technologies.

Legal Disclaimer
vSplash websites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law, or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law, or comply with legal process served on vSplash or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of vSplash (including enforcing this agreement); and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of vSplash or the public.

Access to Personally Identifiable Information
If your personally identifiable information changes, or if you no longer desire our service, you may correct, update, request deletion on our site by emailing us at support@vsplash.com to our Privacy team. We will respond to all access requests within 30 days. In some cases, we may not be able to remove your personal information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.

If you request that your user information be deleted from our records, there may be a brief delay in our processing that request, as we will verify that the request is valid and originates from you as opposed to an unauthorized third party. If you request that your information be deleted, we reserve the right to terminate and/or limit your access to the VSplash website.

If you provide VSplash with user information, you have the following rights with respect to that information:

• To review the user information that, you have supplied to us
• To request that we correct any errors, outdated information, or omissions in user information that you have supplied to us
• To request that your user information not be used to contact you
• To request that your user information be removed from any solicitation list that we use
• To request that your user information be deleted from our records
• To opt out of being solicited by this website or third parties

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@vsplash.com

Security of your Personal Information
No method of safeguarding information is 100% secure. vSplash uses a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. vSplash secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When sensitive personal information (such as a credit card number) is collected on our site and/or transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Data Retention
The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted.
We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you services, contact us at support@vsplash.com. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

Compliance with the EU-US Data Privacy Framework
vSplash complies with the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) and the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework as set forth by the US Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal information from European Union member countries, the UK (including Gibraltar) transferred to the United States pursuant to DPF. vSplash has certified that it adheres to the DPF Principles with respect to such data. If there is any conflict between the policies in this privacy policy and data subject rights under the DPF Principles, the DPF shall govern. To learn more about the DPF program, and to view our certification page, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/

The data handling practices of the vSplash website and its services platform are described in the above sections.  With respect to personal data received or transferred pursuant to the Data Privacy Frameworks, vSplash is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

EU and UK individuals have the right to obtain our confirmation of whether we maintain personal information relating to you.  Upon request, we will provide you with access to the personal information that we hold about you.  You may also correct, amend, or delete the personal information we hold about you.  An individual who seeks access, or who seeks to correct, amend, or delete inaccurate data, should direct their query to support@vsplash.com. If requested to remove data, we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Your right to access your personal data may be restricted in exceptional circumstances, including, but not limited to, when the burden or expense of providing this access would be disproportionate to the risks to your privacy in the case in question, or when the rights of persons other than you would be violated by the provision of such access.  If we determine that your access should be restricted in a particular instance, we will provide you with an explanation of our determination and respond to any inquiries you may have.

We will also provide an individual opt-out or opt-in choice before we share their data with third parties other than our agents, or before we use it for a purpose other than which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized.  To limit the use and disclosure of your personal information, please submit a written request to support@vsplash.com.

In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

vSplash’s accountability for personal data that it receives under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and subsequently transfers to a third party is described in the DPF Principles. In particular, vSplash remains responsible and liable under the DPF Principles if third-party agents that it engages to process the personal data on its behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, unless vSplash proves that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.

In compliance with the DPF Principles, vSplash commits to resolve complaints about your privacy and our collection or use of your personal information transferred to the United States pursuant to the EU-US DPF.  European Union and United Kingdom individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding this privacy policy should first contact Umesh Tibrewal, Founder-CEO, vSplash.

vSplash has further committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework to an independent dispute resolution mechanism, the Data Privacy Framework Services, operated by BBB National Programs. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint, or if your complaint is not satisfactorily addressed, please visit https://bbbprograms.org/programs/all-programs/dpf-consumers/ProcessForConsumers for more information and to file a complaint. This service is provided free of charge to you.

If your complaint cannot be resolved through the above channels, under certain conditions, you may invoke binding arbitration for some residual claims not resolved by other redress mechanisms.  See https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/article/G-Arbitration-Procedures-dpf?tabset-35584=2
