Privacy Policy

 

Your privacy is important to us

Vendor Management Office (VMO) believes that the privacy of our website visitors is extremely important. This privacy policy document outlines the types of personal information that is received and collected by our website and how it is used.

This privacy policy sets out how vendormanagementoffice.net collects, uses, and protects any information that you either explicitly or automatically send when using this website.

Our attitude to your personal data

VMO does not sell, trade, or transfer your personally identifiable information to third parties. For general web browsing, no personal information is revealed to us.

Apart from the information that you volunteer to VMO either by emailing us or by filling out a form e.g. registering for our newsletter, VMO does not collect any personal data about you on this website.

If you send us an email, we may collect your name, your email address, and any other information which you choose to give us. Any information that you provide is used by VMO solely for the purposes for which it is provided. If we do collect any personal data, it will be processed and stored securely, for no longer than is necessary in light of the reasons for which it was first collected. We will comply with our obligations and safeguard your rights under the GDPR at all times.

What this site collects, and what we do with the collected data

We will not collect any personal information about you on this website without your consent. Any personal information which you volunteer to us will be treated with the highest standards of data security and confidentiality, strictly in accordance General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

For the most part, this site is read-only, however, several functions can and do collect information as a function of what they are. These include:

·      Cookies Data: Regular use of the internet involves the sending and receiving of cookie data, and this is true for this site as well. No special attempt to harvest cookie data is being made on this site, and no attempt is ever made to correlate visitor data with real people or identities. If you wish to disable cookies, you may do so through your individual browser options. More detailed information about cookie management with specific web browsers can be found at the browsers’ respective websites or the About Cookies website.

·      IP Data: Another natural part of Internet use is the sending of internet protocol (IP) addresses to the destination server, in this case, vendormanagementoffice.net. Just as with cookie data, no attempt is ever made to link source IP addresses to any personally identifiable information.

·      Ads: Good news – we hate ads as much as you do. This website uses a sponsorship rather than an ad model, so there is no unpleasant third-party advertising code running anywhere on the website. The sponsorship link is just a regular link on the menu on the website and is also found occasionally in sponsored posts.

Access to the site is logged in a standard fashion using the web server logs. These logs may contain cookie and IP address data, as is standard with most web log formats.

Access to this server is restricted to very few people, and log data has never been requested – nor provided to – any third party. The website domain is hosted with ionos.ca, and the blog is hosted with Blogger.com.

No log data will ever be used to attempt to link cookies or IP addresses to actual people, and this log data will never be provided to third parties unless obliged to do so by a rule of law.

Site Security

While it’s not possible to guarantee this website’s security, a great number of measures have been taken to ensure that this server cannot be penetrated without authorization. These include the use of limited accounts to this website and third-party partners, and the use of multifactor authorization wherever applicable.
