When you leave our Websites, we encourage you to read the privacy notice of every website you visit.
II. DEFINITIONS
For the purposes of this Policy, Viridi defines the following terms:
“Comply with a legal or regulatory obligation” means processing your Personal Data where it is necessary for compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation that we are subject to.

“Legitimate Interest” means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best service/product and the best and most secure experience. We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process your Personal Data for our legitimate interests. We do not use your Personal Data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how we assess our legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by contacting us.
“Personal Data” includes any information that can be used to directly or indirectly identify an individual, including, but not limited to, the identification of IP addresses, name, identification number, location data, online identifiers, and/or other information defined by law, statute, or regulation as “Personal Data.”
III. TYPES OF PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT
Viridi may collect, process, store, and transfer different kinds of Personal Data about you:
Viridi may also collect, process, store, and use Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data may be derived from your Personal Data, but is not considered Personal Data under the law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your Personal Data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we will treat the combined data as Personal Data in accordance with this Policy.
Viridi does not collect any Special Categories of Personal Data about you (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). Viridi also does not collect any information about criminal charges, convictions, and/or offenses.
IV. METHODS OF COLLECTING PERSONAL DATA
Viridi utilizes two methods to collect Personal Data from you and about you. Any Personal Data that Viridi collects through either method is subject to this Policy.
The first method is direct interactions. In a direct interaction, you provide us with Identity Data, Contact Data, or Marketing and Communications Data by completing forms on the Websites or by contacting us by phone, email, or otherwise. You may provide such Personal Data in order to request marketing to be sent to you or give us some feedback.
The second method is automated technologies or interactions. As you interact with our Websites, Viridi may automatically collect Technical Data or Usage Data. We collect this personal data by using cookies, server logs, and other similar technologies. For information concerning our use of cookies, please refer to Section V.C, below.
V. HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Viridi will only use your Personal Data when the law allows us to do so. Typically, we will only use your Personal Data:
A. Legitimate Interests
Viridi may process the Personal Data described below for the following legitimate interests, where appropriate. Please note that we may process your Personal Data for more than one lawful ground depending on the specific purpose for which we are using your data.
Please contact Viridi’s Data Protection Officer to request any addition information about these Legitimate Interests.
B. Consent
In order to provide services and communicate, Viridi’s Websites allow you to affirmatively provide Personal Data through on-line forms. By providing your Personal Data, you voluntarily consent to its processing for the purpose for which you provided said Personal Data. Viridi will not sell, distribute, or lease your Personal Data to third parties unless we obtain your prior consent.
Viridi will document your consent to the collection of your Personal Data. You have the right to withdraw this consent, as detailed below.
If you have provided us with consent, Viridi will only use the Personal Data in connection with the reasonable scope of that consent. If Viridi intends to use that information outside the scope of your consent, it will notify you to obtain such additional consent.
Please consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) before consenting to our processing of your Personal Data.
C. Cookies
Viridi employs web traffic log cookies to identify which pages of this website are being used. This Usage Data helps us analyze our Websites’ traffic for statistical analysis purposes, and assists us in better serving our customers’ needs. Cookies allow us to provide our customers with a better website, and in no way gives us access to your computer or any Personal Data, other than the data that you share with us.
You may change your browser settings to not allow for cookies. If you do so, then you will still be able to visit the Websites, but you may not be able to use the Websites to their full potential.
D. No Automated Process for Profiling
Viridi does not use or employ any automated processes for profiling based on its collection of your Personal Data.
VI. DISCLOSURES OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Viridi may disclose your Personal Data to Internal Third Parties and External Third Parties as defined in Section II for the Legitimate Interests outlined Section V.A.
Viridi may also disclose your Personal Data to third parties to which we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your Personal Data in the same way as set out in this Policy.
Viridi will not sell, distribute, or lease your Personal Data to third parties without your prior consent where the only basis for processing that Personal Data was your consent. Moreover, Viridi will disclose your Personal Data where required to do so by the laws of the applicable jurisdiction.
VII. APPLICABILITY BASED ON GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION
For individuals that are citizens of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), after May 25, 2018, all processing of Personal Data is made in accordance with the Regulations (“EU”) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 27, 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of Personal Data and on the free movement of such data, known as the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), and Viridi’s processing of Personal Data will take place in accordance with the GDPR. Similarly, to the extent that the Personal Data is transferred from a data controller outside the EU and/or EEA, Viridi will adhere to the requirements of the GDPR. Viridi will promptly notify you in the event of any known unauthorized access to, or use of, your Personal Data in accordance with all applicable legal requirements.
For individuals who are citizens of states outside the EEA, Viridi has implemented reasonable physical, technical and organizational safeguards that comply with applicable governing laws, statutes, and regulations.
VIII. DATA SECURITY
Viridi has implemented and maintains appropriate security measures to prevent your Personal Data from being accidentally lost, processed, or accessed in an unauthorized way, or altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your Personal Data to those employees, agents, contractors Internal Third Parties, and External Third Parties who have a legitimate business need to know. They will only process your Personal Data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
Viridi has procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
IX. RETENTION AND DELETION OF PERSONAL DATA
Viridi will not retain Personal Data for any period of time longer than to fulfill the purpose for which the information was obtained, or as dictated by any applicable law, statute, or regulation, not to exceed 5 years. In determining the appropriate retention period for Personal Data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the Personal Data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the Personal Data, the purposes for which we process your Personal Data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, accounting, and reporting requirements.
X. YOUR RIGHTS TO CONTROL YOUR PERSONAL DATA
With respect to the Personal Data that Viridi holds, if any, you have the following seven rights:
Right to request access to your personal data. This right allows you to request to receive a copy of the Personal Data that Viridi holds about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
Right to request correction of the Personal Data. This right allows you to request to have any incomplete or inaccurate data that Viridi holds about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Right to request erasure of your Personal Data. This right allows you to request that Viridi delete or remove Personal Data where there is no legitimate reason for us to continue processing it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your Personal Data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your Personal Data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
Right to object to processing of your Personal Data. This right allows you to object to Viridi’s processing of your Personal Data where we are relying on a Legitimate Interest (or those of an Internal Third Party or an External Third Party as defined above) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
Right to request restriction of processing of your Personal Data. This right allows you to request that Viridi suspend the processing of your Personal Data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Right to request the transfer of your Personal Data to you or to a third party. This right allows you to request that Viridi provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Please note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use.
Right to withdraw consent. This right allows you to withdraw your consent to Viridi’s processing of your Personal Data at any time where we are relying solely on your consent to process your Personal Data. However, this right does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you do withdraw your consent, then we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
In connection with any request pursuant to these rights, we may request additional information to confirm your identity and to ensure your right to access the Personal Data requested. Any request for additional information is part of Viridi’s security measures to ensure that Personal Data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
You may exercise any or all of these rights at no cost to you. Where practical and not subject to statutory exemption, Viridi will try to respond to all legitimate requests within 30 days of said request. Occasionally it may take us longer than these 30 days to respond if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
You also have the right to make a complaint at any time to a regulatory body concerning our processing of your Personal Data. While you have that right, we would appreciate if you first contacted us and afforded us the opportunity to address your concerns before you approach any regulatory body.
