PRIVACY POLICY

Novantum Advisory Group is committed to protecting your privacy

Novantum Advisory Group is committed to your privacy. We work in your best interests and strive to comply with applicable data protection laws and regulations in the diverse geographies we work in, including the latest relevant U.S., EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), U.S., EU, and Kenyan privacy standards, including GDPR and other international privacy standards.

We collect limited data from website visitors via forms and cookies to respond to inquiries, share policy insights, and improve our site. We use this information to keep in touch with you (if you fill out a contact form or service inquiry, for instance) and to improve the content and services we provide (by identifying what information gets the most attention and fixing site usability issues, for example).

We don't sell, rent, or otherwise share your personal data with anyone outside of Novantum Advisory Group except as necessary to provide a requested service (such as processing payments or scheduling consultations) or to fulfill legal obligations in the interest of the safety of Novantum Advisory Group, the users of our website, or the public.

Scope of This Policy

This privacy policy ("Policy") describes the practices of Novantum Advisory Group ("Novantum," "we," "us," or "our") with respect to the gathering and use of personal information submitted through our website (the "Site") and in connection with our advisory services.

This Policy does not cover Novantum's confidentiality and privacy obligations to clients governed by separate written agreements. This Policy also does not apply to the practices of third-party service providers or companies accessed through links provided for your convenience from the Site.

We collect Nonpublic Personal Information ("NPI"), such as name, email address, phone number, organization, and job title when you submit contact forms, sign up for newsletters, register for webinars, or request resources.

When you visit our Site, we may collect technical and navigational information, such as IP address, browser type and version, device information, pages visited, time spent on the Site, and referral sources via cookies and analytics tools. A cookie is a small data text file that a website server writes to your hard drive when you visit the Site. A cookie assigns a unique identification to your computer and may be used for security purposes, to facilitate transactions, to personalize the Site, or to gather information about your visit.

Some tools on our Site also collect information and use their own cookies to provide features and services. These may include analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to track overall activity, user experience and feedback tools and social media sharing tools (LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook).

We do not collect sensitive data (e.g., health or financial information) unless explicitly required for advisory services payment (if applicable) and with your consent. You should review these companies' privacy policies to understand how they collect and use your information.

How We Use Your Information

Novantum uses information collected from users for various purposes, including to:

Administer the services requested by you

Improve our website, services, and user experience

Respond to your queries and deliver tailored advisory content and customer support

Inform users of new products and services (with your consent)

Diagnose technical problems and administer the Site

Prevent fraud and enhance security

Analyze usage patterns and trends to enhance our service offerings

We may share aggregated demographic, product usage, or traffic pattern information for analytical and marketing purposes with other organizations, but these statistics will include no personally identifiable information. Except as noted in this Policy, your personal information will not be shared with other organizations for marketing purposes without your consent.

When We Disclose Your Information

Novantum does not disclose personal information to any third party, except for the purposes of providing services to you, or as otherwise disclosed in this Policy. Specifically, we may share the personal information that we collect with the following entities:

To service providers with whom we contract, including those who host and maintain the Site, process payments, distribute our materials, provide customer relationship management, or handle billing for services. These service providers are contractually obligated to protect your information and use it only for the purposes disclosed.

If you apply for a job on the Novantum hiring Platform, to agency that advertises these opportunities and to third parties that may search our database of advisors.

For applicants to the Novantum Affiliate program or Advisory network membership

To government agencies and law enforcement officials when required to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process.

To establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.

To investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, or situations involving potential threats to physical safety.

We also reserve the right to disclose personal information to investigate violations of our Terms and Conditions or other agreements, or as otherwise required or permitted by law.

If Novantum merges with another organization, is acquired, or undergoes a business transition, your personal information will be acquired by or transferred to that organization.

Disclosures That You Control

If you submit personal information or other information not specifically listed here, to any publicly accessible areas of the site (such as forums, comment sections, community discussions, postings, or other such places), then your submissions will be public, and Novantum's privacy obligations will no longer apply. If you submit personal information directly to one of our service providers, then such submissions are governed by that service provider's terms and privacy policy, not Novantum's.

You should be aware that your username may be displayed throughout the Site and therefore may be available to the public. All of your activities on publicly accessible sections may be traceable to your username. Other people can see your submissions and your postings to publicly accessible sections of the Site. Therefore, if you associate your given name with your username, people who know you will be able to identify your activities and comments on the Site. Novantum is not responsible or liable for the consequences of information you choose to disclose publicly.

Security

The Site has security measures in place to protect against unauthorized access to and the loss, misuse, and alteration of information under our control. However, we cannot guarantee that such security measures will be sufficient, will not be breached, and that your personal information may not be disclosed or otherwise accessed in an unauthorized manner. Certain information may be transmitted by unsecured electronic mail, and although it may be illegal to intercept or disclose these messages, these transmissions may not be secured. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When we no longer need your information, we will securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with applicable law.

Access and Update Your Information

Novantum provides methods for you to review, update, and correct your personal information and contact preferences. You may update your information online through your account settings, or contact us via [email protected].

Opt-Out Policy

You may at any time request not to be contacted by Novantum for marketing purposes. Opt-out requests can be submitted by using the unsubscribe link in our emails, updating your communication preferences in your account, or by contacting us directly. Please note that we may ask you to confirm your request in writing for our records. Opting out of marketing communications will not affect service-related communications necessary to provide services you have requested.

Applicable Laws

The Site is published in the United States and is subject to the laws of the United States. If you are located in a country outside the United States and voluntarily submit personal information to us, you consent to the general use of such information as provided in this Privacy Policy and to the transfer of that information to, and/or storage of that information in, the United States. We take appropriate measures to ensure that your personal information remains protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy when transferred internationally.

Linked Websites

The Site may provide hypertext links to other websites that are governed by privacy policies different from those provided herein. If you leave the site or interact with third-party content, this Privacy Policy will not apply. You should read the privacy policies of websites reached through links on the site. Novantum is not responsible for the collection, use, or disclosure of information collected through those websites, and we expressly disclaim any and all liability related to such collection, use, or disclosure.

Changes to Policy

As the Site grows and new features are added, or legal requirements change, this Privacy Policy may be amended. We will post the amended Privacy Policy on the Site and update the "Effective Date" at the top of this Policy. The amended Privacy Policy will automatically be effective 30 days after it is initially posted on the Site. Your continued use of our services after such modifications constitutes your acknowledgment and acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
