uInvented takes data privacy seriously. This privacy policy explains who we are, how we collect, share and use Personal Information, and how you can exercise your privacy rights.

We recommend that you read this privacy policy in full to ensure you are fully informed. However, to make it easier for you to review the parts of this privacy policy that apply to you, we have divided up the document into sections that are specifically applicable to Customers (Section 2), Contacts (Section 3), and Visitors (Section 4). Sections 1 and 5 are applicable to everyone.

If you have any questions or concerns about our use of your Personal Information, then please contact us using the contact details provided at the end of Section 5.

To the extent we provide you with notice of different or additional privacy policies, those policies will govern such interactions.

“Distribution List” is a list of contact details and all associated information related to those contacts (for example, email addresses)

“Personal Information” means any information that identifies or can be used to identify an individual directly or indirectly. Examples of Personal Information include, but are not limited to, first and last name, date of birth, email address, gender, occupation, or other demographic information. “Visitor” means, depending on the context, any person who visits any of our uInvented websites, offices, or otherwise engages with us at our events or in connection with our marketing or recruitment activities.

2. Privacy for Customers This section applies to the Personal Information we collect and process from a Customer or potential Customer through the provision of our services, including features offered through the Service.
