This privacy statement describes how EMPIEZO collects, uses and shares your information. It applies to EMPIEZO Corporation and EMPIEZO subsidiaries except where a subsidiary presents its own statement without reference to EMPIEZO’s.
We may provide additional data privacy information by using a supplementary privacy notice.
This section describes the various types of information that we collect and how we use it.
You can create an account with EMPIEZO by creating an EMPIEZO id. An EMPIEZO id provides EMPIEZO with your name, email address, and country or region of residence. We may require an EMPIEZO id for certain services, such as the use of our platforms
We may also store your details from business contact information that you provide to us, or that we collect from your organization, our Business Partners, or our suppliers.
An EMPIEZO id uniquely identifies you when you access our websites, make a request or order, or use a product or service. If you log into our websites with an EMPIEZO id we may link the information we collect with your account. An EMPIEZO id is also used to give you access to EMPIEZO platforms and allows you to manage your contract and billing history. The email address in your EMPIEZO id may be used to contact you in relation to any services to which you subscribe.
Business contact information is typically information that you would find on a business card, such as name and business contact details. We use this information to contact or communicate with you about business matters. If we receive business contact information from a third party, such as an EMPIEZO Business Partner or supplier, we will confirm that the information was shared appropriately.
We may also combine your business contact information with other business-relevant information, such as information about your professional education, skills, work experience, or other publicly available information, such as business-related blogs, publications, job roles, and certifications.

We are constantly searching for new talent for our organization, and we collect information about job applicants or prospective candidates from several sources.

We may share your personal information internally and externally with suppliers, advisors, or Business Partners for EMPIEZO’s legitimate business purposes, and only on a need-to-know basis. This section describes how we share information and how we facilitate that sharing.
How We Share Personal Information
When sharing personal information, we implement appropriate checks and controls to confirm that the information can be shared.
If we decide to sell, buy, merge, or otherwise reorganize businesses in some countries, such a transaction may involve disclosing some personal information to prospective or actual business purchasers, or the collection of personal information from those selling such businesses.
Internally, personal information is shared for our legitimate business purposes, such as managing our relationship with you and other external parties, compliance programs, or systems and networks security. We do this to improve efficiency, for cost savings, and internal collaboration between our subsidiaries. Our internal access to personal information is restricted and granted only on a need-to-know basis. Sharing of this information is subject to the appropriate intracompany arrangements, our policies, and security standards.
Externally,
In certain circumstances, personal information may be subject to disclosure to government agencies in accordance with judicial proceedings, court orders, or legal processes. We may also share personal information to protect the rights of EMPIEZO or others when EMPIEZO believes that such rights may be affected, for example to prevent fraud.
Your information may be transferred to or accessed by EMPIEZO subsidiaries and third parties around the world. EMPIEZO complies with laws on the transfer of personal information between countries to keep your personal information protected, wherever it may be.
We have implemented various safeguards including:
To protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, and disclosure, we implement reasonable physical, administrative, and technical safeguards. These safeguards include role-based access controls and encryption to keep personal information private while in transit. We also require our Business Partners, suppliers, and third parties to implement appropriate safeguards, such as contract terms and access restrictions, to protect information from unauthorized access, use, and disclosure.
We only retain personal information as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it is processed, or to comply with legal and regulatory retention requirements. Legal and regulatory retention requirements may include retaining information for:
We retain any contractual relationship information for administrative purposes, legal and regulatory retention requirements, defending EMPIEZO rights, and to manage EMPIEZO’s relationship with you. The information that is provided in a supplementary privacy notice may provide more detailed information on applicable retention terms.

You have certain rights when it comes to the handling of your personal information. The Contact Us form in the header of this page can be used to:
Your rights may be subject to limitations and exceptions resulting from applicable laws. For example, there may be situations where we cannot share certain information that you seek if disclosing this means disclosing information about others.
You may also have the right to complain to the competent supervisory authority. Information about additional rights and the right to complain to the competent supervisory authority can be addressed to info@empiezoitsolutions.com
If you have an unresolved privacy or data use concern that we have not addressed satisfactorily, please contact our U.S.-based third-party dispute resolution provider (free of charge) reach out to info@empiezoitsolutions.com
In some jurisdictions, the lawful handling of personal information is subject to a justification, sometimes referred to as legal basis. The legal bases that we rely on for the lawful handling of your personal information vary depending on the purpose and applicable law.
The different legal bases that we use are:
Necessary for the performance of a contract with you
Necessary for the purposes of EMPIEZO’s or a third party’s legitimate interest
Consent
Legal obligation
If a material change is made to this Privacy Statement, the effective date is revised, and a notice is posted on the updated Privacy Statement for 30 days. By continuing to use our websites and services after a revision takes effect, it is considered that users have read and understand the changes.
EMPIEZO does business through its subsidiaries worldwide. The privacy laws in some countries consider a Controller to be the legal entity (or natural person) who defines the purposes for which the processing of personal information takes place and how that information is processed. Parties that are involved in processing operations on behalf of a Controller may be designated as Processors. Designations and associated obligations differ, depending on the jurisdiction.
Where this is relevant for the privacy laws in your country, the Controller of your personal information is EMPIEZO’s main subsidiary in your country or region, unless International Business Machines Corporation (EMPIEZO Corp.) or another EMPIEZO subsidiary identifies itself as the Controller for a specific interaction with you.
