In our Privacy Policy
Our Websites collect personal data from the individual using the Services who, unless otherwise specified, coincides with the Data Subject (hereinafter the “User”) including:

We also collect email addresses from the emails you send us directly. We will use personally identifiable information in cases where the User has opted in to receiving email marketing from Us, or to update the User regarding changes to their account or the Services.

In cases where the Websites specifically state that some Data is not mandatory, Users are free not to communicate this data without consequences to the availability or the functioning of the services provided by the Websites as described in the Terms of Use (the “Services”).

Data processing
Methods of processing
Computers used to access our Services automatically transmit certain non-personally identifiable information when you visit our sites, such as the type of browser you are using or the domain name of your Internet service provider. They also collect aggregate information on the site pages our users visit. Our ability to limit collection of this data is limited, as it cannot control, for example, whether an individual user’s non-personally identifiable information is gathered by Google Analytics or a similar service. Thus, the user is responsible for the user’s own settings on any computer used to access our Services, and the user is thus responsible for determining whether information is transmitted from its device to Us through any means. Computer data containing no personally identifiable information will be used only for internal business purposes.
Congruo Solutions Inc. takes appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or unauthorized destruction of the Data.
The data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT enabled tools, following organizational procedures and modes strictly related to the purposes indicated. In some cases, the data may be accessible to certain types of persons in charge, involved with the operation of the Websites (administration, sales, marketing, legal, system administration) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, mail carriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communications agencies) appointed, if necessary, as data processors.

Retention time
Personal Data shall be processed and stored for as long as required by the purpose they have been collected for.
Therefore, personal data collected for purposes related to the performance of a contract between Us and the User shall be retained until such contract has been fully performed. After the services have been rendered, we will have a maximum of 2 years to delete all the identifiable personal data of the user.
Congruo Solutions Inc. may be allowed to retain personal data for a longer period whenever the User has given consent to such processing, as long as such consent is not withdrawn. Furthermore, We may be obliged to retain personal data for a longer period whenever required to do so for the performance of a legal obligation or upon order of an authority.
Once the retention period expires, personal data shall be deleted. Therefore, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after expiration of the retention period.
