Privacy Statement

By visiting our website, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Evolva Holding SA. and its affiliates (collectively and individually, “Evolva”) are concerned about the users of its website and protection of their private information. Accordingly, Evolva has created this Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) that applies to this website and any other services offered by Evolva (the “Services”).

Evolva strongly encourages each of its website users to take the time to become familiar with this Policy as, by using this website, you consent to the collection and use of information as set forth herein.

The Policy is designed to provide you with information on how we are following the rules for data protection, which information we gather while you are browsing our website and how this information is used. On our website there may be links to websites owned by third parties. This Privacy Policy does not apply to such websites and Evolva expressly disclaims any responsibility for them and how they collect Personal Information about you.

Personal Information

“Personal Information” means any information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural or legal person, such as an individual’s name, address, e-mail, telephone number, license number, photograph, or other identifying characteristic. The identification can occur by reference to one or more factors specific to the individual’s physical, physiological, mental, economic, cultural or social identity.

Collecting and Processing Personal Information

When a user signs-up for newsletter, press-releases, accessing documents or requesting information, the user will be required to provide certain Personal Information (including, without limitation, your full name, email address). Evolva may take this information and integrate it with other information submitted by the user, other information in the possession of Evolva in order to provide the best user experience while using the Services. While Evolva takes appropriate measures to provide accuracy in the handling of Personal Information, Evolva relies entirely on its users to provide and maintain correct Personal Information and to update this information as appropriate.

In addition, when a user accesses Evolva’s website, the servers automatically record information provided by the user’s browser and Internet transmissions. Generally, this information is automatically provided by a user whenever a user accesses any website. This information, recorded in a server log, may include a user’s particular information (including, without limitation, IP address, browser software, language, date/time of access and other information and/or cookies that will uniquely identify a user’s computer and the Internet browser the user is using). Additionally, whenever you send an email to Evolva, Evolva will retain that email so that Evolva can investigate and respond to your concerns.

Use of Personal Information

Personal Information collected through this website is utilized by Evolva in order to fulfill your requests for products and services, to contact you, to conduct research, and to provide Services to users, including, without limitation, delivering enhanced Services and demonstrating functionality of the Services and for other purposes permitted by law, such as responding to law enforcement and regulatory requests. Evolva may also use Personal Information submitted to send you information on products and promotions, though in electronic form such will only be send to you if you have consented to it.

Evolva is concerned about a user’s Personal Information. Therefore, Evolva will only share a user’s Personal Information under limited scenarios. Those scenarios include sharing it: (i) in accordance with this Privacy Policy; (ii) with a user’s consent; (iii) with Evolva’s third party providers; (iv) when required by law or public policy; or (v) when it seeks to enforce its terms and conditions.

Evolva is, however, free to share with third parties Personal Information that has been de-identified (anonymised), for whatever purpose.

Evolva takes all reasonable measures to protect your Personal Information. To ensure the security and confidentiality of Personal Information that Evolva collects online, we use data networks protected by industry standard firewall and passwords. In the course of handling your Personal Data, Evolva takes measures reasonably designed to protect that information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.

Evolva does not sell, rent or trade any of your Personal Information to third parties without your consent. Personal Information is not transferred to third parties unless provided for otherwise in this Privacy Policy or where permitted by law. Evolva may outsouce the processing of Personal Information to third parties, and may itself process Personal Information, worldwide, even in countries without an adequate level of data protection.

For the purpose of sending e-mailings to you and provided that you have subscribed to Evolva’s news updates on the website, Evolva may give your name and email address to agencies appointed by Evolva. These agencies are not authorized to use your Personal Information for any other purposes than for the sending of e-mailings.

Right to Obtain and Correct Personal Information

Our users have the right to obtain information on all of your stored Personal Information, to receive, to review and, if necessary correct or erase, by sending an email to legal@evolva.com.

Cookies

Upon a user accessing the Services, at least one cookie (a small data file) will be sent by Evolva or a third party to a user’s computer. This cookie allows Evolva or the third party to identify the user’s computer and Internet browsing software in a unique way. These cookies allow Evolva and the third parties it uses to provide a more personalized experience for the user and track this usage of the website. Generally, the default for most Internet browsers is to accept cookies. A user, however, may choose to change these settings to notify the user when a cookie is being sent or, alternatively, to refuse transmission/receipt of all cookies. It should be noted, however, that if a user refuses transmission/receipt of all cookies, a user’s experience using the Services may be significantly affected in a negative way and, perhaps, prohibit entirely the use of the Services. In short, if a user prohibits the transmission of its Personal Information, Evolva may not be able to provide its Services to that user. Moreover, if a user would like more information about this practice and to know a user’s choices about not having this information used by third parties, please contact us at legal@evolva.com.
