The Vant Group (“The Vant Group” or “we” or “us”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through our compliance with this Privacy Policy for United States visitors (this “Privacy Policy”). The Vant Group is made up of numerous legal entities with offices across North America.

This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect from you: (1) when you visit our website at www.TheVantGroup.com and other online locations where we post this Privacy Policy (each, a “Website” and collectively, the “Websites”); (2) in email, chat, text, and other electronic messages between you and the Websites; and (3) in connection with business transactions, conferences, our social media pages, and your other interactions with us. It does not apply to information collected by: (1) The Vant Group offline or through any other means, including any other website operated by The Vant Group or any third party; or (2) any third party, including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from our Websites. The Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use information and also explains the rights and choices certain individuals may have regarding their own personal information that is subject to this Privacy Policy.

Please read this Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, your choice is not to use our Website. By accessing or using this Website, you agree to this Privacy Policy. This Policy may change from time to time (see Changes to Our Privacy Policy). Your continued use of this Website after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the Policy periodically for updates.

1. Information We Collect

We collect several categories of information from a variety of sources while conducting our business, as listed below, including personal information. “Personal information” is generally any information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular resident or household in the applicable jurisdiction, or as defined under applicable data protection laws and regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable data protection laws and regulations, the term “personal information” may exclude information that has been deidentified, pseudonymized, aggregated or anonymized.

1.1. Interactions With the Website and With Us. When you visit the Website, you may choose to provide certain personal information. This information may include your name, email address, phone number, postal address, and other identifying information. We collect personal information when you register interest with us, contact us for information, sign up for newsletters and updates, create an account to access the The Vant Group meetings. We also collect contact information of people who communicate with The Vant Group via phone, email, messenger services or other social media platforms. In most cases, you provide this information to us directly; in other cases, an organization you represent may provide this information, or it may be provided by a vendor with whom you have contracted. Where existing or prospective corporate clients or vendors provide us with information relating to their directors, employees, officers, agents, clients, or any other person, such information is deemed to have been provided on the basis that: (a) those individuals have been informed and understand that their information is being provided to us or our affiliates; (b) those individuals have been provided with information regarding the collection, use, processing, disclosure, and transfer of their information; (c) the client or vendor has a lawful basis (in accordance with applicable data protection laws and regulations) to provide such information to us; and (d) those individuals are aware of their privacy and data protection rights and how to exercise them. We do not seek to collect or otherwise process sensitive information about individuals (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data) or criminal conviction/offense data unless it is necessary for compliance with a legal and/or regulatory obligation. We request that you do not provide us such sensitive information.

1.2. Information Associated With Our Service Providers. We collect personal information and other information about companies and individuals associated with service providers and contractors that we engage, such as name, address, email address, telephone number, company name, and title.

1.3. Job Applications and Employees.

(a) We collect personal information and other information relating to employment candidates, including name, address, email address, telephone number, picture, birthdate, gender, resume information, notes on meetings, references, interviewer impressions and other industry standard data, as well as data made publicly available or available to us on social networks. We collect personal information and other information related to our employees and independent contractors, such as name, address, email address, telephone number, and other information that is customary or necessary to administer the employment or contractor relationship.

(b) If the candidate or employee resides in a jurisdiction in which we are required to provide a separate applicant, employee, or independent contractor privacy notice, our collection and use of the personal information is also governed by such separately-provided privacy notice. In such case, such separately-provided privacy notice shall prevail in the event of any conflict between such the terms of such notice and the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1.4. Automatically Collected Information. When you visit the Websites, we may collect technical and clickstream information such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, your uniform resource locators (URL), the domain name of your Internet service provider, the operating system of your browsing device, type of browser, browser plug-in types and versions, access dates and times, hardware and software information, mobile device identifier or mobile advertising ID, device event information, cookie data, screen resolution, Flash version, time zone setting, which pages you visit and how long you spend on each page, methods used to browse away from a page, and your geographic location. See Section 4 (Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies) for information about cookies and other tracking technologies and your options for opting out. We may also collect information relating to your engagement with regard to material that we publish, which we use to ensure that our relationship management communications to you are relevant and timely. We do not collect personal information automatically, but we may tie non-personal information collected automatically to personal information about you that we collect from other sources or that you provide to us.

1.5.    Social Media and Other Sites. If you interact with us on social media or use features such as plugins, widgets, or other tools made available by social media platforms or networks in connection with our Websites, we may collect information that you share with us on social media or that such platforms share with us.

3.1. Sale of Personal Information. We do not sell your personal information for money and do not act as a data broker. However, we may share or disclose some personal information as described below, which in some cases may be deemed “selling” under various state laws, even if we receive no money.

3.2. Affiliated Entities. We may share information with our affiliates and subsidiaries from time to time (whether wholly or partially owned by The Vant Group) (our “Affiliates”) to manage our business more effectively and for such Affiliates’ own marketing and other purposes.

We take steps to ensure that these third parties use personal information only to the extent necessary to perform their functions. These third parties include business partners, service providers, suppliers, agents, and sub-contractors. They assist us in providing the services we offer, processing transactions, fulfilling requests for information, receiving and sending communications, analyzing data, providing IT and other support services, or in other tasks. These third parties also include analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimization of our Websites and our marketing. They also include service providers who may help prevent fraud, protect The Vant Group, its staff and its property, and assert our rights.

We may disclose your information to third parties: (1) if some or all of The Vant Group and/or its Affiliates or assets are acquired by a third party including by way of a merger, share acquisition, asset purchase or any similar transaction, in which case your information may be transferred to the acquirer; (2) in order to comply with any legal, ethical, audit or compliance obligation, in the course of any legal or regulatory proceeding or investigation; (3) in order to enforce or apply our terms and other agreements with you or with a third party, and/or to assert or protect the rights, property, or safety of The Vant Group, our customers, or others; and (4) if we request your consent for a purpose not identified in this Privacy Policy and you provide consent.

Additionally, we may combine information that we collect from or about you (including automatically collected information) with information we obtain about you from any companies that are part of The Vant Group and/or non-affiliated third parties, and use such combined information in accordance with this Policy.

4. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

4.1. Nature and Purpose of Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies. When you access or use our Websites, we use, and may allow third parties to use, cookies and other tracking technologies such as web beacons and pixels, which collect and/or store certain information about or on your browsing device, as further described under “Automatically Collected Information” above. We do not place non-necessary cookies without your consent. Cookies identify the device from which you connect and in some cases could be used to identify you. Different cookies that we use are kept for different periods: (a) session cookies are used to keep track of your activities online in a given browsing session, and generally expire when the browser is closed but may be retained for a period on your device; and (b) permanent cookies remain in operation even when you have closed the browser. Some cookies are necessary as they are required for the operation of the Websites, such as cookies that enable you to login to secure areas. You cannot opt-out of necessary cookies; however, we will not place non-necessary cookies on your device without your consent. You can consent to cookies through the Cookie Preference Tool available on our Websites, and you can withdraw consent using the same tool. The cookie preference tool is device and browser specific. If you delete or clear cookies or change devices or browsers, you will need to reset your cookie preferences using the tool. In addition, you may use your browser settings to delete and reject cookies. However, erasing or not consenting to some types of cookies, through the tool or your browser settings, may limit your experience on the Websites and the services we are able to offer. Non-necessary cookies include functional cookies which are used to recognize you when you return to our Websites, and enable us and our third party partners to personalize content to your preferences.

4.2. Website Analytics. We may use third-party web analytics services on our Websites to collect and analyze usage information through cookies and similar tools; engage in auditing, research, or reporting; and provide certain features to you. To prevent Google Analytics from using your information for analytics generally, you may install a Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on by clicking here.

4.3. Tailored advertising. With your consent, we permit third parties to use cookies and other tracking technologies (such as web beacons and pixels) with the aim of collecting certain information to analyze behavior and to provide you with advertisements tailored to you across the Web. This type of ad-customization is sometimes referred to as tailored advertising. For more information about this type of advertising, visit https://thenai.org/about-online-advertising/faq/. The use of cookies and other tracking technologies by third parties on, or through, our Websites is subject to the third parties’ privacy policies. If you would like more information about your choices concerning tailored advertising, including how you may opt-out of tailored advertising by Companies who participate in the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance, visit http://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1 or https://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2&lang=EN. Following an opt-out using the options offered by the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance, you may still be shown advertisements by companies who participate in these programs, but such advertisements will be less relevant to your interests. In addition, if you have consented to third party cookies on our Websites using our Cookie Preference Tool, you can withdraw your consent using the tool. Please note that if your browser causes an opt-out mechanism to expire, or if you delete your cookies or change computers or devices after opting out, you will need to opt out again by clicking the links in this Section.

4.4. Do Not Track Signals. Some browsers have a “do not track” feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. These features are not yet uniform, so our Websites are not currently designed to respond to or support those signals.

5. Rights and Choices

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:

5.1. Opt-Out of Marketing and/or Sharing with Affiliates and Third Parties. If you wish to opt-out of receiving any marketing solicitations from us, and/or from our sharing your personal information with Affiliates and/or third parties for their own marketing purposes, please contact us at the email or postal address listed in Section 13. Even if you opt-out, we may still use and share the information we collect for non-marketing purposes.

5.2. Unsubscribe from Emails. Any marketing emails we send will include an automated way for you to opt out (unsubscribe) from that marketing email distribution sent by us. To unsubscribe, please follow the instructions in the email you receive. You may still receive non-marketing emails for us, for example communications about services you have requested from us or responses to your inquiries.

5.3. Opt-Out of Online Tracking. See Section 4 (Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies) for instructions on how to withdraw consent for non-necessary cookies, including cookies used for third-party advertising, if you previously consented. Please also see Section 4 for how to opt-out of tailored advertising from companies who participate in the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance. We do not control third parties’ collection or use of your information to serve interest-based advertising. However, these third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way. You can opt out of receiving targeted ads from members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) on the NAI’s website.

5.4. Accessing and Correcting Your Information. You can review and change your personal information by sending us an email at info@thevantgroup.com to request access to, correct, or delete any personal information that you have provided to us. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

6. Data Retention

We retain Personal Information in accordance with our data retention policy, as long as required to provide the services and as necessary to comply with our legal and other obligations, to resolve disputes and to enforce agreements. We also retain Personal Information to meet any audit, compliance and business best-practices.

Data that is no longer retained may be deidentified, aggregated, pseudonymized or anonymized or deleted. Likewise, some metadata and statistical information concerning the use of our services are not subject to the deletion procedures in this Privacy Policy and may be retained by The Vant Group. We will not be able to identify you from this data. Some data may also be retained on our third-party service providers’ servers or backups until deleted in accordance with their privacy policy and their retention policy. Personal Information may also be retained in our backups until cycled out and overwritten.

7. Children Under the Age of 16

Our Website is not intended for children under 16 years of age. No one under the age of 16 may provide any information to or on the Website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you are under 16, do not use or provide any information on this Website. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 16 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 16, please contact us at info@thevantgroup.com.

8. Data Security

The Vant Group implements, enforces, and maintains security measures, technologies and policies to prevent the unauthorized or accidental access to or destruction, loss, modification, use or disclosure of Personal Information. Where appropriate or necessary in light of the nature of the data in question and the risks to data subjects, we may encrypt data. Note, however, that no data security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, leaks, viruses and other data security breaches will never occur. Similarly, we cannot guarantee the privacy of information you transmit over the Internet or that may be collected in transit by others, including contractors that provide services to us.

9. Supplemental Notice to Residents of California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, and Utah

In this section, we provide information for residents of California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and Nevada, as may be required under applicable privacy laws of such states from time to time (“State Privacy Laws”). For instance, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), as amended by the California Consumer Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), and the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“VCDPA”), require that we provide their respective residents certain specific information about how we handle their personal information. Because certain State Privacy Laws require that we disclose specific information about how we handle certain personal information collected about residents of their states, the scope of this section may be different than the scope of the rest of our privacy policy.

Please note that for The Vant Group employee and candidate information-related requests, the The Vant Group employee or candidate privacy notice (which is separately provided) governs such information.

9.1. Definitions of Key Terms. Under State Privacy Laws, subject to certain exceptions, “personal information” is generally any information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular resident or household in the applicable state.

(a) A “Sale” of personal information under State Privacy Laws such as CCPA and VCDPA may occur any time a business sells or makes available any personal information to a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.

(b) A “Share” of personal information under the CPRA generally means disclosing, making available or communicating personal information by a business to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for monetary or other valuable consideration, including transactions between a business and a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising for the benefit of a business in which no money is exchanged.

(c) “Cross-context behavioral advertising” means the targeting of advertising to a consumer based on the consumer’s personal information obtained from the consumer’s activity across businesses, distinctly-branded websites, applications, or services, other than the business, distinctly-branded website, application, or service with which the consumer intentionally interacts.

(d) “Sensitive information” under State Privacy Laws is generally defined as personal information that reveals sensitive information about a consumer, such as social security, driver’s license, state identification card or passport numbers, account log-in, financial account, debit card or credit card numbers in combination with any required security or access code, password or credentials allowing access to an account, precise geolocation, data revealing racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, physical or mental health diagnosis, sexual orientation, or citizen or immigrant status, as well as processing of genetic or biometric data for identification, and personal data collected from a known child.

9.2. Rights Under Applicable Laws. Depending on where you reside, you may have additional legal rights with respect to your information under State Privacy Laws, beyond those described in Section 5, above. These rights are described below. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply in limited cases. Consistent with State Privacy Laws, this Supplemental Notice provides a way to exercise such rights for residents of the above states. This section does not apply to any matters exempted from State Privacy Laws during the period of exemption, nor to matters covered by an applicable law prior to the relevant portion of the applicable State Privacy Laws going into effect.

(a) Right to Know. You may have the right, depending on your jurisdiction, to request the following about the personal information we have collected about you during the past 12 months:

• The categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you;
• The categories of sources from which we collected the personal information;
• The business or commercial purpose for which we collected the personal information;
• The categories of third parties with whom we Shared the personal information;
• The categories of personal information about you that we disclosed for a business purpose, and the categories of third parties to whom we disclosed that information for a business purpose;
• The specific pieces of personal information about you that we collected, disclosed to third parties for a business purposes, and (if you reside in California) Shared with, third parties;

(b) Right to Delete. You have the right to request that we delete or remove certain personal information we have collected from you, subject to exceptions the law provides. For example, to the extent permitted by State Privacy Laws, we may deny a deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to: (i) complete the transaction for which we collected the Personal Information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you; (ii) detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities; (iii) debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality; (iv) protect our legal interests, to defend our rights in a case of potential, threatened, or actual litigation, and to enforce our rights; (v) comply with a legal obligation and/or (vi) fulfill internal and lawful uses that are compatible with the context in which you provided the information.

(c) Right to Correct. You have the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information we may have about you. Please note that not all information is eligible for correction; for instance, some historical data is required by The Vant Group to be maintained in its original form to preserve evidence of transactions, events, and other legally-significant records. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to correct eligible inaccurate personal information.

(d) Right of Non-Discrimination. You have the right to not be discriminated against if you exercise these privacy rights. We will not discriminate against you, deny, charge different prices for, or provide a different quality of goods or services if you choose to exercise these rights.

(e) Right to Opt-Out of Sales and/or Sharing of Personal Information. Under certain State Privacy Laws, you have the right to opt of the Sharing of your personal information to third parties.

(f) Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. Other than to the limited extent described in Section 1.3, we do not collect, use, or disclose information we believe to be sensitive under State Privacy Laws.

(g) Notices and Collection. At or before the point of collection, notice must be provided to the individual of the categories of personal information collected and the purposes for which such information is used. We have provided such information in this Section 9, and you may request further information about our privacy practices by contacting us at the contact information set forth in Section 13, below.

(h) Exceptions to These Rights. The law provides for certain exceptions to the rights described above. We reserve the right to avail ourselves of these exceptions where applicable.

9.3. How to Exercise These Rights. If you live in a relevant jurisdiction and would like to send us a request to exercise one of your above rights, you may do so by visiting our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link on our Websites, sending an email to info@thevantgroup.com, or calling us toll free at 1-866-467-8688 and using Service Code 1995. You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf as permitted under law, though before we process that request, we will require that you provide the authorized agent written permission to do so and verify your identity directly with us. To help protect your privacy and maintain security, we may take steps where required to verify your identity before granting you access to your personal information or complying with your request. We may not be able to respond to your request if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

9.4. Response Timelines. The Vant Group will acknowledge any request to know or to delete within 10 days of receipt, and aim to respond to such requests within 45 day. If we need more than 45 days to respond to your request to know or delete, we will inform you accordingly.

10. California “Shine the Line” Law

The California “Shine the Light” law requires some businesses to respond to requests from California customers about the disclosure of certain personal information to third parties for third party marketing purposes. Alternately, such businesses may adopt a policy of not disclosing such personal information to third parties for marketing purposes if a California customer has opted-out of such information sharing. We have adopted an opt-out policy. In order to opt-out, please contact us at the email or postal address listed in Section 13. In addition, see the instructions above regarding the Sale or Sharing of Personal Information.

11. United States Policy

This Privacy Policy is intended to apply to our operations in the United States. Information provided on our Website(s) in jurisdictions outside of the United States will be transferred to and processed in the United States and other locations. By providing us your information, you consent to the transfer to and processing of your information in the United States. We make no representation that the practices described in this Privacy Policy are compliant with laws outside of the United States that apply to the collection, security, use and disclosure of information. If you are located outside the United States, please be advised that some jurisdictions, such as the European Economic Area, do not consider the privacy protections in the United States to be adequate at this time. When information is transferred to the United States, it will be handled in accordance with the laws of the United States. We and our service providers may transfer Personal Information to, and process such information in, multiple locations globally.

12. Changes to Our Privacy Policy
