The intention of this policy is to clarify how Sigmatek Ventures companies (which we will collectively refer to in this policy as “Sigmatek”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) in this policy, obtain and utilize your personal information. Laws regarding privacy in various countries mandate that Sigmatek must provide specific information regarding our collection of your personal data. Apart from this overall policy, you may also receive additional information about how we use your personal data based on your interaction with us.
Sigmatek obtains personal information from various sources, such as customers and their employees, job applicants, suppliers, website visitors, application users, and potential job candidates. The personal data that may be collected includes names, addresses, phone numbers (both landline and mobile), email addresses, company or employer names, individual contact names and job titles, fax numbers, IP addresses, device identification and location data, service and site usage information, billing and transaction data, and financial information such as credit card details. The type of information collected will depend on the specific service being requested or advertised.
Sigmatek can obtain personal data in various ways, such as through customer and end user orders via telephone, fax, email, internet, application form, order form, or contract, as well as from products and services, portals and apps, and inquiries made by potential and existing customers, and vendors, contractors, or applicants. To gather information about visits to our websites or your responses to our email, Sigmatek may use "cookies" and similar technologies. Cookies are small text files stored on your computer's memory, hard drive, or mobile device, enabling our websites to function or providing information to third parties. This data could be about your preferences, device, or other relevant information. While it may not directly identify you, it can offer a more customized experience. Specifically, cookies aid us in improving the quality and usefulness of our sites, identifying your technology preferences, facilitating navigation, and personalizing your experience. Additionally, using cookies can allow us to automate entry into password-protected areas of our websites, so you won't need to re-enter your password every time you visit such a site. The following is a list of the types of cookies we use and your options related to them:
Web beacons may be included in emails we send you to determine how many people open or click on links in those emails. If you do not want web beacons in your email, you can disable HTML images or choose to receive text-only emails in your email software settings.
We may obtain information about you from various sources, including conferences, meetings, seminars, chat rooms, blog posts, newsgroups, and social networking sites. The information we collect from social networking sites depends on the privacy settings you establish on each site.
Sigmatek may also obtain data from third parties, such as financial information from third parties to assess credit risks for customers and end users, or contact information for organizations that may be interested in our products and services.
Sigmatek utilizes personal data for various purposes such as providing services, enabling accounts, billing, technical support, product development, payment application, and combating fraud and illegal activities. Personal data is also used for marketing and survey requests, as well as for tailoring content and assessing website effectiveness. Information about the device and visit is collected when using Sigmatek websites and apps, and this information is used for operational and business purposes, as well as for delivering relevant marketing messages. If using the referral service, permission should be obtained before submitting a friend's email. In some geographic locations, contact information provided may be used for marketing. Specific information on how personal data is used will be provided based on the particular service provided. Personal data is processed for legitimate business interests, contract purposes, or legal obligations, with safeguards in place to protect privacy and ensure interests are not overridden. Consent may be required in certain circumstances and can be withdrawn at any time..
Sigmatek collaborates with other companies within its group and may share your personal data with them for internal reporting, marketing, customer insights and service optimization purposes. We work with vendors and partners who assist us in offering, providing, repairing, restoring and billing for our services. We share personal data with these vendors and partners only when it is necessary for them to perform work on our behalf, and we require that they protect the personal data we provide to them and use it only for the purposes for which it was provided. We may disclose personal data when required or permitted by law or in connection with legal action, debt collection or asset transfer. Some of our websites or services may be offered jointly with partners, and if you use them, both Sigmatek and the partner may receive your personal data. Our websites and services may include third-party plug-ins and widgets that may share your information with associated social networks or third-parties, even if you don't interact with them.
Sigmatek is committed to protecting the confidentiality and security of customer information. To achieve this, we have implemented technical, administrative, and physical safeguards, and their employees are trained on the importance of privacy protection and appropriate handling of customer information. Access to sensitive personally identifiable information is only granted to those who have a business need for it, and personal data is retained only as long as necessary for business, accounting, tax, or legal purposes. Although no security program is completely foolproof, Sigmatek has security and incident response plans in place to handle unauthorized attempts to access, use, or disclose personal information.
