    Updated: November 27, 2023

    This Privacy Policy (“Policy” or “Notice”) describes the privacy practices of Vodori, Inc. (“Vodori”, “we”, “us” or “our”) in connection with the https://www.vodori.com/ website (“Site”), the Vodori applications (“Application”, “Products” or “Service”) that link to this Privacy Policy, and our marketing activities and social media pages as described in this Policy. This Policy also describes your rights and choices with respect to the Personal Information we collect. Additional important information for individuals located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), Switzerland, and the United Kingdom (“UK”) is provided in the ‘Notice to European Users’ section.

    We respect and understand that our website visitors, customers, and their employees have concerns about privacy. Vodori wants to assure you through this Policy that we take reasonable steps to ensure that any information we receive is handled in a safe and responsible manner.

    Our customers and their registered users maintain responsibility for the use of our Applications and control what data is placed within and processed by our Applications. Our applications are not intended to manage Personal Information within content uploaded to the application. Personal Information collected as part of delivering our services is retained pursuant to the contracts between the parties and processed in accordance with this Policy.

    Cookies. Most browser settings let you delete and reject cookies placed by websites. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings.

    Do Not Track. Some Internet browsers have incorporated the World Wide Web Consortium “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) standard. This standard, when implemented, sends a signal or preference (the “DNT Signal”) to the websites you visit indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret DNT Signals, nor a common definition of “tracking,” we do not currently respond to DNT Signals on the Website. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit https://www.allaboutdnt.com.

    Declining to provide information. We need to collect Personal Information to provide certain services. If you do not provide the information we identify as required or mandatory, we may not be able to provide those services.

    As you navigate the websites, we may collect information through the use of commonly-used information-gathering tools, such as cookies and web beacons. Information collected may include standard information from your web browser (such as browser type and browser language), your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, and the actions you take on the website (such as the web pages viewed and the links clicked). If this information is reasonably related to you, we consider it Personal Information. If this information cannot be reasonably related to you or your household, it is not Personal Information and not subject to this Policy.

    A few important things you should know about our use of these technologies are:

    • We offer certain features that may be available only through the use of these technologies.
    • We use these technologies to help identify you (or your business) to us.
    • Some cookies are “session cookies,” meaning that they are automatically deleted from your hard drive at the end of a session.
    • Other cookies are “persistent cookies” meaning that they are deleted from your hard drive once the cookie expiration date is reached.

    We also use web beacons to compile information about visitor interaction with e-mails from Vodori.

To the extent permissible under the request and/or applicable law, this Policy will describe the personal data requested, the authority making the request, the legal basis of the request, and any response already provided. This Policy gives the customer an opportunity to pursue a legal remedy, such as filing an objection with a court or the requesting authority.

    Data Privacy Framework Notice

    The information provided in this Notice applies only to individuals in the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK. 

    Vodori complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF (UK Extension), and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) (collectively, the “Data Privacy Framework”) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.  Vodori has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (EU-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from the EEA in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and from the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK Extension.  Vodori has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF.  If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the Principles shall govern.  

    The following U.S. based entity is adhering to the EU-U.S. DPF Principles, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles and is covered by Vodori’s DPF submission:

    Vodori, Inc. 333 N. Green Street, Suite 808, Chicago, Illinois 60607, USA

    To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.

    Data processed. Vodori creates cloud-based software making it easier for customers to collaborate, ensure compliance, and create quality content. Vodori’s Application is a purpose-built promotional and medical information review and approval solution that empowers Life Science companies to bring products to market faster while ensuring regulatory compliance, with connectivity to adjacent platforms. Optional products and services include an integrated sales enablement solution that provides current versions of approved materials and analytics on usage. We also offer materials import from legacy systems and connectors to deliver materials to downstream systems (i.e., CRM, sales enablement, LMS, websites).

    In providing these products and services, Vodori processes the data listed in the above ‘Personal Information we collect’ section.

    Purposes of data processing. Vodori processes data submitted by customers for the purposes listed in the above ‘How we use your Personal Information’ section.

    Inquiries and complaints. If you believe Vodori maintains your personal data in one of the services within the scope of our Data Privacy Framework certification, you may direct any inquiries or complaints concerning our Data Privacy Framework compliance to privacy@vodori.com. Vodori will respond within 45 days. 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) at https://www.jamsadr.com/DPF-Dispute-Resolution. If neither Vodori nor our dispute resolution provider resolves your complaint, you may have the possibility to engage in binding arbitration through the Data Privacy Framework Panel. For more information on this option, please see Annex I of the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles.

    Accountability for Onward Transfers. Vodori uses a limited number of third party service providers to assist us in providing our services to customers. These third party providers offer customer support to our customers, customer relationship management, perform application and network monitoring, data storage and hosting, software engineering, and other technical operations. The types of third parties with whom Vodori may share your personal data are set out in the section of this Privacy Policy entitled ‘How we share your Personal Information’. Vodori remains liable under the Data Privacy Framework if a third party service provider processes personal data covered by this Privacy Policy in a manner inconsistent with the Data Privacy Framework Principles, except where Vodori can demonstrate that we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damages.

    Your rights to access, to limit use, and to limit disclosure. EU, UK and Swiss individuals have rights to access, to limit the use and disclosure of any personal data about them. With our Data Privacy Framework self-certification, Vodori has committed to respect those rights. You may be able to correct, amend, or delete Personal Information that we hold where it is inaccurate, or has been processed in violation of the Principles, except where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to your privacy in the case in question, or where other persons rights would be violated.

    Because Vodori personnel have limited ability to access data our customers submit to our services, if you wish to exercise your rights, please provide the name of the Vodori customer who submitted your data to our services and send your request to privacy@vodori.com. We will refer your request to that customer and will support them as needed in responding to your request.

    U.S. Federal Trade Commission enforcement. Vodori’s commitments under the Data Privacy Framework are subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the United States Federal Trade Commission.

    Compelled disclosure. Vodori may be required to disclose Personal Information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

    Your Right to Lodge a Complaint with your Supervisory Authority. In addition to your rights outlined above, if you are not satisfied with our response to a request you make, or how we process your Personal Information, you can make a complaint to the data protection regulator in your habitual place of residence.
