Privacy Policy

Numat Technologies, Inc. (“Numat”) is committed to protecting the privacy of our customers and anyone we engage with on their behalf, as well as any visitors to our Web site. This Privacy Policy describes our current practices regarding the personal data that we collect from you when you visit and use our Web site or that we otherwise collect in the course of business with our customers. Personal data is information that may identify you, such as your name, e-mail address, or telephone number.

This Privacy Policy applies to this Web site or any service we offer that links to this Privacy Policy.

Data we collect

If you choose to receive access to some of our thought-leadership materials, you will be asked to provide us with some personal data, including your name and e-mail address. We will use this data to provide you with the materials you request. Where permissible and/or with your permission, we may also use this data to provide you with details about our products and services that may be of interest to you.

We will also collect your device’s IP address. This data is collected automatically when you access our Web site in order to provide the services to you. This information also helps us to diagnose problems with our server and to improve the services we offer to you.

We use technologies that collect data about the use of our Web site which do not identify you directly. We use this data to compile statistics about our visitors and the ways they use our Web site. For example, we log which pages users access and which Web browsers and operating systems they use. We may also determine which Web page you are coming from before visiting our Web site and whether you are accessing our site from a corporate network to more accurately gauge our users’ demographics.

We do not intentionally collect any sensitive personal data through our Web site. Sensitive personal data means the various categories of personal data identified by applicable data privacy laws as requiring special treatment. These categories can include data relating to ethnic origin or race, marital status, political opinions or affiliations, ideological views or activities, trade union membership, religious beliefs, physical or mental health, genetic or biometric information, sexual orientation, information on social security measures, or administrative or criminal proceedings or records. We therefore suggest that you do not provide sensitive personal data of this type to us through our Web site.

Confidentiality of customer information

Consistent with our customer obligations, it has always been our policy to exercise the utmost discretion regarding the information our customers entrust to us. We accept and process confidential customer information, including data we collect in the course of providing services to our customers, subject to our customer’s direction and control, and we maintain reasonable and appropriate security precautions. Because we operate globally, our systems may make data related to your matters accessible from our various offices around the world, and we often transfer customer data between our offices. This data is transferred in accordance with the requirements of our intergroup data transfer agreement based on the Standard Contractual Clauses defined in Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

We never rent, trade, sell, or share your information with any unrelated parties except as necessary or appropriate to conduct our business activities, subject to appropriate confidentiality, privacy, and information security commitments provided by the receiving party; or to further your interests; or as permitted or required by law; or as authorized or directed by you. Please feel free to raise any questions, concerns or specific directions you may have regarding the privacy and security of your data to the Numat employee who is handling your matter or to info@numat.com

We will send you information and materials you request.

We will use your data to administer and improve our Web site and to better understand our site users.

 We may use your data to carry out contracts or comply with applicable laws or regulations.

Legal bases for processing your data

We process your personal data in order to operate, maintain, and provide you with our services. Numat’s legal basis for processing your personal data will typically be one of the following:

It is necessary to fulfill a contract that we have in place with you;

  • The processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, to ensure that our products and services are properly provided, and to promote our products and services;
  • We have your consent to use your personal data; or
  • The processing is necessary to comply with our legal obligations.
  • Disclosures and transfers of your data to third parties, including regulators
  • We do not rent, sell, share, or otherwise distribute your personal data to third parties outside of Numat except as required by law and in these circumstances:

We may share, transfer, or disclose the information in our databases and server logs in the event of our sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution, or similar event, as well as to comply with a contractual obligation with our customers, protect your vital interests, and/or protect the security or integrity of our databases or services. We will inform you of any such transfer or disclosure as required by law.

We may be required to disclose your personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. Governmental and regulatory bodies must follow the applicable legal process to obtain valid and binding orders. All requests must be specific and are reviewed by the Numat Legal team to ensure that the requests are valid and so that Numat can object to overly broad or otherwise inappropriate requests. Numat does not provide any government with direct and unfettered access to your personal data, and we do not provide any government with our encryption keys. 

We are a global company, and your data may be transferred throughout our offices worldwide. We are headquartered in the United States, and your data will be stored and processed according to U.S. privacy standards in alignment with the OECD Privacy Guidelines. Data is transferred in accordance with the requirements of our intergroup data transfer agreement based on the Standard Contractual Clauses defined in Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and which also satisfies the requirements for cross-border data transfers from Japan under Act No. 57 of 2003, as amended. Numat adheres to the essential data protection principles of lawfulness, fairness, and transparency; purpose limitation; data minimization; accuracy; storage limitation; integrity and confidentiality; and accountability.

How to access, correct, or limit the use and disclosure of your personal data

If you send us a request to access, correct, delete, limit, or object to the use and disclosure of the personal data we hold about you, we will respond to your request in accordance with applicable law. These requests should be sent to us via info@numat.com or to the mailing address listed below. 

How we retain your personal data

We take steps to ensure that the personal data that you provide is retained for only as long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and as required by applicable law. After this period, it will be deleted.

Security

We provide reasonable and appropriate physical, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the personal data we collect. Please be aware that, although we endeavor to provide reasonable security for data we process and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.

Governing law

This Privacy Policy forms part of our Terms of Use and is governed by the laws of the State of Illinois.
