Privacy and disclaimers
The following discloses the privacy practices and disclaimers for Servadus, Inc.
PRIVACY POLICY
Servadus, Inc. (“Servadus”) takes your privacy seriously. We want you to know how we collect, use, share, and protect your data.
This Privacy Policy tells you:
- What personal data do we collect
- How we use your data
- How do we share your data
- How we protect your data
- Your choices regarding your data
- Information specific to non-U.S. users
- Changes to this Privacy Policy
- General
This Privacy Policy applies only to personal data that we collect on the website www.servadus.com as modification, relocation, or redirection from time to time (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy does not apply to any other websites accessible through the site.
Please do not use the site if you do not want us to handle your data as described in this Privacy Policy. If you reside outside the U.S., you cannot submit personal data through this website unless you consent to this Privacy Policy.
Personal data means information that relates to you as an individually identifiable person, such as your name, email address, and mobile number.
- WHAT PERSONAL DATA DO WE COLLECT
- Information You Give Us
We collect personal data that you voluntarily share with us through the site. For example, we may ask you to register and provide information when you download free information, such as white papers and email newsletters, or respond to a marketing campaign.
- Information You Give Us
Information We Collect Through Technology on the Site
We collect information through technology to enhance our ability to serve you. When you access and use the site, Servadus and, in some cases, our third-party service providers collect information about how you interact with the site. We’ve shared below the methods we use to collect information through technology.
IP Address
When you visit the site, we collect your device identifier, browser information, and Internet Protocol (IP) address. An IP address is often associated with the portal you use to enter the Internet, like your Internet service provider (ISP), company, association, or university. While an IP address may reveal your ISP or geographic area, we cannot determine your identity solely based on your IP address. We do not link your data to device identifier information, browser information, and IP addresses. According to local law, IP addresses and the like are considered personal data; we treat them as such.
Do We Use Cookies?
Yes. We use cookies on this website. A cookie is an information sent by a web server to a web browser and stored by the browser. Each time the browser requests a page from the web server, the cookie communicates with the webserver. This process enables the webserver to identify and track the web browser. We use cookies to help us understand how users use the site. For example, cookies gather information about how long you spend on a web page to understand which pages interest users most.
We, or our service providers, may send cookies to your browser. The web browser may store those cookies on your computer’s hard drive. We, or our service providers, may use the information we obtain from the cookies in the administration of this website to improve the website’s usability and marketing purposes. For example, our sales team may use information about website engagement to determine the potential interests of a user requesting information about our services. We may use information obtained from cookies to recognize your computer when you visit our website and personalize our website for you. For example, we may also use cookies’ information to tailor how the website appears to you (including the advertisements and offers you receive) to match your interests and preferences better.
We may use anonymous cookies to record non-personal information such as website activity, date and time of visit, and domain type. We may use this information for retargeting purposes.
Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies. (For example, in Internet Explorer, you can refuse all cookies by clicking “Tools,” “Internet Options,” “Privacy,” and selecting “Block all cookies” using the sliding selector.) However, this step will cause some features and other websites to fail. For example, a website typically cannot remember that you have logged in when you move from page to page without cookies.
Service Providers’ Cookies
We use cookies provided by third-party service providers, such as Google Analytics and ZoomInfo, to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. The cookies correlate data tied to a user’s IP address, page visits, time spent on a page, and subsequent website visits. For example, based on this information, Google Analytics compiles aggregate data about site traffic and site interactions, which we use to offer better site experiences and tools in the future. Google Analytics does not collect personal data (other than IP addresses considered personal data in some countries). You can obtain more information about Google Analytics here: www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/
Web Beacons
We include small graphic images or other web programming code called web beacons (also known as “pixel tags,” “web bugs,” or “clear GIFs”) on the site. The web beacons are minute graphics with a unique identifier. They are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies stored in a user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are invisibly on Web pages. They are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.
Your ‘Do Not Track Browser Setting
We support the Do Not Track (DNT) browser setting. DNT is a preference you can set in your browser’s settings to let the websites you visit know that you do not want to collect your data.
We may track your online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services. For example, we might use web beacons to help us determine what links or advertisers brought you to our site. We then track your activities on our site. However, we won’t be able to engage in tracking if you select the DNT browser setting.
- Information Third Parties Provide About You
We may receive information about you from third-party organizations. This process allows us to enhance our ability to serve you, tailor our content, and offer you information that may interest you.
- PURPOSES FOR WHICH WE USE THE PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT
We use the information we collect to serve you and improve your experience on the site. These purposes include:
- Responding to requests for information
- Responding to requests for service quotes

Data Retention
We retain your data for the duration of the customer relationship, if any. We also have your data for 12 months after our last interaction.
- HOW WE SHARE THE PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT
We do not sell or rent your data to third parties. The following are some of the ways we share your data:
- Required Disclosures: We may be required to share personal data in a court proceeding in response to a court order, subpoena, civil discovery request, other legal processes, or otherwise required by law.
- Legal Compliance and Protections: We may disclose accounts and other personal data when we believe disclosure is necessary to comply with the law or protect the rights, property, or safety of Servadus, our users, or others. This action includes exchanging personal data with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

- To a subsequent owner, co-owner, or operator of the site or successor database.
- In connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, bankruptcy, the sale of substantially all our membership interests and assets, or other corporate change, including any prospective purchasers.
- HOW WE PROTECT THE PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT
The security and confidentiality of your data are essential to us. There are technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect data from unauthorized access, disclosure, and improper use.
For example, we use Transport Security Layer (TSL) encryption to protect the data collection forms on our site. In addition, access to customer information is restricted to authorized personnel only. Only employees who need personal data to perform a specific job (for example, a customer service representative) will be given access to those records. Employees with access to personal data are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Servadus will not retain Payment information such as Credit card numbers used for payment processing and automatic renewals where applicable for other purposes.
Visitors are responsible for protecting against unauthorized access to their passwords and other sensitive data. Please make sure to close your browser after you have finished your visit to the site.
Just so you know, no security measure is ever perfect or impenetrable despite our reasonable efforts, so we cannot promise the security of your data.
- YOUR CHOICES REGARDING YOUR DATA
You may contact info@servadus.com to access, update, correct, and delete your data.
Managing Cookies and Other Data Collection Technologies: You have some options to control or limit how our vendors and we use Cookies and other technologies, including for advertising:
- To prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics, you can install Google’s opt-out browser add-on.
- Check your mobile device for settings that control ads based on your interactions with the applications on your device. For example, on your iOS device, enable the “Limit Ad Tracking” setting, and on your Android device, enable the “Opt-out of Ads Personalization” setting.

For example, if you ask us for quotes for products and services you want, we may send them to you. Servadus also processes personal data as necessary for its legitimate interests as follows:

EEA Individuals’ right to access their data includes their right to receive a copy of all, or a portion, of their data in Servadus’s possession. Servadus’s providing the personal data would not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
Suppose EEA Individuals believe Servadus processed their data violating applicable data protection law.
