Please note that you can always choose not to provide us with certain information, but this may limit the features of the Site you are able to use.

What Information Is Automatically Collected From You/Cookies

As is true of most other websites, our Site collects certain information automatically and stores it in log files. The information may include information from and about the devices you use to access the Site. This includes things like IP addresses, the type of browser and device you use, the web page you visited before coming to our Site and identifiers associated with your devices. We use this information to help us design our Site to better suit our users’ needs. We may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website, analyze trends, track visitor movements and gather broad demographic information that assists us in identifying visitor preferences.

We may also use cookies and URL information to gather data regarding the information you searched and viewed on our Site. A “Cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. For example, cookies help us with things like remembering your username for your next visit, understanding how you are interacting with our Site and improving them based on that information. You can set your browser to not accept cookies, but this may limit your ability to use the Site. We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Site. Persistent Cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions.

How We Use Your Personal Information

We collect, and associate with your account, the information you provide to us when you sign up for your account. We use other information about you for the following general purposes: to manage your account; to communicate with you in general; to respond to your questions and comments; to measure interest in and improve our Site; to otherwise customize your experience with this Site; to solicit information from you, including through surveys; to resolve disputes, collect fees or monies owed, or as otherwise necessary to provide you customer service; to prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities; to enforce our Terms of Use; and as otherwise described to you at the point of collection.

We may use technologies considered automated decision making or profiling. We will not make automated-decisions about you that would significantly affect you, unless such a decision is necessary as part of a contract we have with you, we have your consent or we are required by law to use such technology.

With Whom We Share Your Information

We endeavor to require these third party service providers to not use your personal information other than to provide the services requested by us.

Transfer of Assets: We reserve the right to transfer your personal information to a buyer or other transferee in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, sale or other transfer of some or all of our assets. Should such a sale, merger or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use your personal information in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.

Other Disclosures: We may disclose personal information if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary (a) to allow a merger, acquisition or sale of all or a portion of our assets; (b) in connection with any legal investigation; (c) to comply with relevant laws or to respond to subpoenas or warrants; (d) to protect or defend the rights or property of Vezt or users of the Site; and/or (e) to investigate or assist in preventing any violation, or potential violation, of the law, this Privacy Policy or the Terms of Use.

How We Protect Your Information

We are committed to protecting the security of your personal information. We protect your personal information using technical and administrative security measures to reduce the risks of loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure and alteration.

In addition, to make sure your personal information is secure, we communicate our privacy and security guidelines to our employees and strictly enforce privacy safeguards within the company.
