Embedded content from other websites

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 you have 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 tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website. Personal data collected by third party websites, which may include such things as location data or contact details, is governed by their privacy practices. We therefor encourage you to learn about the privacy practices of those third parties.

Web server logs/analytics

As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically through your use of the website. This information may include Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring or exit pages, the files viewed on the site (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system and date/time stamp to analyze trends in the aggregate and administer the site. We use analytical software to help us understand this information.

How we use personal data.

Modelon will only use the personal data we collect as reasonably necessary for the following purposes:

  • to ensure the functionality of our website, to analyze the use of our website and to improve and further develop the website;
  • to inform our continued product development of our products and our services;
  • to communicate with you from time to time in response to your requests for information or as may be relevant to your inquiries with us;
  • to send marketing communications related to the products and services we provide if you have opted in for such communications;
  • as required by applicable law or legal requirements pertaining to records retention or for internal administrative purposes; or
  • as specifically authorized by you in writing.

The legal grounds for our processing of your personal data

The legal ground for our processing of your personal data when you visit our website is based on our legitimate interest to ensure the functionality, content and features of the website and to further improve and develop our website.

The legal ground for our processing of your personal data when you contact us through our website in a support matter or because you or your employer is interested in our products and services is based on our legitimate interest to respond to your questions and inform about our business, products and services.

The legal ground for our processing of your personal data if you subscribe to our newsletters is based on your documented consent.

Who we share your data with

As further described below, we will only share certain personal information with:

  • our trusted third party service providers and vendors; and
  • for legal reasons.

Sharing with Third Party Service Providers and Vendors

Occasionally, we enter into contracts with carefully selected third parties so that they can assist us in servicing you (for example, website development or access to advertising assets) or to assist us in our own marketing and advertising activities (including providing us with analytic information and search engine optimization services). Our contracts with such third parties prohibit them from using any of your personal information for any purpose beyond the purpose for which it was shared.

Sharing within the context of a Legal Process

If legally required to do so, or if we have a good faith belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary, we may disclose your personal information to courts of law, law enforcement authorities and other relevant third parties, such as internet service providers, to conduct an investigation, respond to a third party or law enforcement subpoena or court order, bring legal action, prevent harm to others or pursue other relief when you or a third party are or may be:

  • violating our terms and conditions of use;
  • causing injury or other harm to, or otherwise violating the property or other legal rights, of us, other users, or third parties; or
  • violating federal, state, local, or other applicable law.

This disclosure can include transferring your information to the U.S. and other countries outside the European Economic Area. To the extent we are legally permitted to do so, it is our policy to notify you in the event that we are required to provide your personal information to third parties in connection with a subpoena.

How long we retain your data

If you have registered to our newsletter, we will retain your personal data for as long as you do not opt out of receiving further communication from us. If you otherwise contact us from our contact forms, we will retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary in order to respond your inquiry and follow-up on any actions required by Modelon as a consequence of your inquiry.

If you register on our website, we will also store the personal information that you provide in your user profile for as long as your account remains active. You can see, edit, or delete your personal information at any time (except your username). Our website administrators can also see and edit that information if needed.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR DATA

How we protect your data

We have put in place reasonable measures and appropriate procedures for implementing this privacy policy and for safeguarding the personal data we collect. However, we cannot guarantee that personal data we collect will never be disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this privacy policy.
