Vevomo Framework Privacy Statement

Vevomo, and its subsidiaries, affiliates and parent companies (“Vevomo”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience when you use our video conferencing and communication services (the “Services”), visit our webpages, interact with us on social media, or attend a Vevomo event offline or online.

This Statement explains Vevomo’s practices when we process your “personal data,” which is information that relates to an identified or identifiable individual. To “process” or “processing” means any use of personal data including, transferring, collecting, recording, storing, using, analyzing, combining, disclosing or deleting it.

This Statement may be updated periodically. If we plan to make any material changes to the way we handle personal data as described here, we will notify you by posting an updated version of this Statement on our website. Changes to this Statement are summarized in our Change Log. We may supplement this Statement with “just-in-time” notices, or other disclosures contained within or in connection with the provision of the Services, which may describe in more detail our data collection, use and sharing practices. Unless we say otherwise, such supplemental privacy statements will govern how we may process the information in the context of the specific product or service.

What this Statement Covers

This Statement applies to the personal data we process as a data controller, that is, as the party that determines what data to collect and why. You provide some of this data directly, and we get some of it by collecting data about your interactions, use, and experiences with the Services. The data we collect depends on the context of your interactions with Vevomo and the choices you make, including the products and features you use. We also obtain data about you from third parties.

When you use Vevomo’s Services through a Vevomo account holder, the processing of your personal data is determined and administered by that account holder under its privacy policies. If you have questions about how and why your personal data is collected, the legal basis for processing, or requests regarding your personal data, please refer to the account holder’s privacy statement and direct your inquiries to the account holder or its administrator.

Supplementary Information

Your California Privacy Rights

If you are a resident of the State of California, this Privacy Statement is supplemented by our California Privacy Rights Statement that explains your California privacy rights and how you can exercise these rights.

Vevomo and Children

Vevomo does not knowingly allow children under the age of 16 to sign up for their own accounts.

Who This Policy Applies To

This privacy policy applies to www.vevomo.com, owned and operated by Vevomo, a California corporation, and any Vevomo Website or Vevomo-Powered Websites through which Vevomo provides services to its Customers and the Customers’ Users (the “Vevomo Services”). A “Vevomo-Powered Website” shall mean a domain not owned by Vevomo but which has a license from Vevomo to utilize specific Vevomo technologies. Vevomo is committed to respecting your online privacy and recognizes your need for appropriate protection and management of any Personal Data you share with us. For purposes of this privacy policy, “personal data” means any information that can be used to individually identify a person, and may include, but is not limited to, name, email address, postal or other physical address, IP address, credit or debit card number, and title. Vevomo has established this privacy policy so that you can understand how we use and protect your Personal Data.

This privacy policy applies to these kinds of parties that interact with Vevomo:

Customers: Our Customers are typically corporations and organizations that contract with Vevomo to provide one or more Vevomo Services for managing their virtual conferences and other events. The Customer’s employees, independent contractors, and other associates interact with the Vevomo Services on behalf of the Customer.

Users: These are individuals and businesses who interact with our Customers through one or more Vevomo Services in connection with our Customer’s event. They include attendees who register for the event using Vevomo Services; suppliers of services to our Customer for the event; and buyers of services on behalf of our Customer to manage the event.

Visitors: These are individuals who interact with www.vevomo.com in order to learn more about Vevomo and our services, to request a demo, to download information, or similar purposes. Our Vevomo Services allow our Customers to collect a variety of Personal Data from and about their Users such as name, organization, title, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone number, social media account ID, credit or debit card number, and content that the User chooses to upload.

Personal Data We Process & How We Use It

The table below describes Vevomo’s processing of personal data as a data controller. The table does not cover Customer content or User content, including any personal data about you and Users that may be contained in Customer content—such as event recordings or transcripts—because the Customer (the Vevomo account holder), or User, rather than Vevomo, controls how Customer and User content is processed. Any questions about the processing of Customer and User content should be addressed to the Customer directly.

Customer Content

Customer content is the “in-session” information you or Users give us directly through your use of the Services, such as event recordings, files, chat logs, making and responding to comments, reacting to comments, watching videos or presentations, downloads, and transcripts, and any other information uploaded while using the Services. Vevomo uses Customer and User content only in connection with providing the Services – we do not monitor, sell or use Customer or User content for any other purposes.

Our Customers use personal data in planning and managing their events and related activities. For example, if a User chooses to use the Services to conduct business with our Customer (such as registering for an event, or providing input related to the event), any personal data or other information provided by the User will be transferred to, and under the control of, our Customer.

Our Customers will also have access to information (including personal data) related to how the User interacts with the Services they choose to use.

In collecting and using personal data, our Customers act as data controllers with regard to the User, under the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). Vevomo cannot, and does not, take responsibility for the privacy practices of our Customers or their event planners, event organizers, or other suppliers. Vevomo encourages Users to review the particular Customer’s privacy policies to understand its privacy practices and procedures.

We do not control the actions of anyone with whom you, your Users, or any other Service user may choose to share information. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that any Customer content you or any User provides to the Services will not be viewed by unauthorized persons. Nor can Vevomo control the information a User may choose to share during an event. Although Vevomo account holders can set privacy options that limit access to certain areas of the Services, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable and that we are not responsible for circumvention of any security measures contained on the Services. You should be cautious about the access you provide to others when using the Services, and the information you choose to share when using the Services.

How does Vevomo handle Personal Data of Visitors?

A visitor who is examining www.vevomo.com for informational purposes will have Personal Data, such as the visitor’s IP address, cookies, and similar technologies.

If a visitor requests a demonstration of the Services or decides to download a buyer’s guide, with the visitor’s permission we will collect and/or process Personal Data such as the visitor’s name, email address and phone number. We will use this information to fulfill the visitor’s order, send the visitor the requested product or service information, or respond to Customer service requests.

The personal data of visitors has substantially the same rights as personal data of Users.

How We Share Personal Data

For Business Purposes

We provide personal data to vendors and services providers to help us provide the Services and for Vevomo’s business purposes. Examples include public cloud storage vendors, carriers, payment processor, and service provider for managing Customer or User support tickets. Vevomo contractually prohibits such vendors from using the personal data for any reason other than to provide the contracted-for services and Vevomo contractually requires its vendors to comply with all appropriate privacy and security requirements.

European Privacy Rights

If you reside in the European Economic Area, you may have the right to exercise certain privacy rights available to you under applicable laws. We will process your request in accordance with applicable data protection laws. We may need to retain certain information for record-keeping purposes or to complete transactions that you began prior to requesting any deletion.

  1. Right not to provide consent or to withdraw consent. We may seek to rely on your consent in order to process certain personal data. Where we do so, you have the right not to provide your consent or to withdraw your consent at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of the processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
  2. Right of access and/or portability. You may have the right to access the personal data that we hold about you and, in some limited circumstances, have that data provided to you so that you can provide or “port” that data to another provider.
  3. Right of erasure. In certain circumstances, you may have the right to the erasure of personal data that we hold about you (for example if it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was originally collected).
  4. Right to object to processing. You may have the right to request that Vevomo stop processing your personal data and/or to stop sending you marketing communications.
  5. Right to rectification. You may have the right to require us to correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal information.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of the rights above, email us at dataprivacy@vevomo.com. You and Users may also submit a request to the following address:

Vevomo
Attention: Data Privacy Officer
17 Edgewood Way
San Rafael, California 94901

Please identify yourself and specify your request. If you have a password protected Vevomo account, we will use your account information to verify your identity. If not, we will ask you to provide additional verification information. What we request will depend on the nature of your request, how sensitive the information is, and how harmful unauthorized disclosure or deletion would be.

We use commercially reasonable efforts to delete your personal data as required but retain records necessary to comply with a governmental authority or applicable federal, state, or local law. Where legally permitted, we may decline to process requests, including requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, or jeopardize the privacy of others.

International Transfers

Vevomo operates globally, which means personal data may be stored and processed (for example stored in a data center) in any country where we or our service providers have facilities or hold events. By using Vevomo or providing personal data for any of the purposes stated above, you acknowledge that your personal data may be transferred to or stored in the United States or in other countries around the world. Such countries may have data protection rules that are different and less protective than those of your country.

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), and your personal data is transferred outside of the EEA, we will:

  1. Process it in a territory which the European Commission has determined provides an adequate level of protection for personal information; or
  2. Implement appropriate safeguards to protect your personal information, including transferring it in accordance with applicable transfer mechanism, including the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

Retention

We will retain personal data for as long as required to do what we say we will in this Statement, unless a longer retention period is required by applicable law. The criteria used to determine our retention periods include:

  1. The length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide our services to you (for example, for as long as you have an account with us or keep using our services);
  2. Whether we have a legal obligation to keep the data (for example, certain laws require us to keep records of your transactions for a certain period of time before we can delete them); or
  3. Whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position (such as in regard to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation or regulatory investigations).

Customers can delete their own accounts.

Security

Vevomo is committed to protecting your personal data. We use reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction, taking into due account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of the personal data. If you have any questions about the security of your data, please contact our security team at dataprivacy@vevomo.com
