How Will Vū Technologies Share The Information It Collects?

We do not share or sell your personal information to any third-party company or organization outside the Vū Technologies network, for any commercial or marketing purpose, without asking you first.  The following are the limited situations in which we may share your information.

Vendors, Service Providers, and Other Partners
Vū Technologies may provide your personal information to vendors, service providers, and other partners who support Vū Technologies’ business by providing technical infrastructure services, analyzing how our services are used, measuring the effectiveness of our services, providing customer service, facilitating payments, or conducting academic research and surveys.  These partners must adhere to strict confidentiality obligations in a way that is consistent with this Policy and the agreements we enter with them.

Third Parties
We may share, license, or sell anonymized, non-personal data publicly and with third parties. We take steps to keep this non-personal information from being associated with you and we require our partners to do the same.

Vū Technologies may share your personal information only with your explicit consent. For example, you may wish to connect a third-party product or service to your Vū Technologies account. When you do so, you will be shown details about any proposed exchange(s) of data between Vū Technologies and the third party that is providing the product or service. In some cases, Vū Technologies or the third party will instead (or also) ask for permission to control the products that you have connected. Your explicit consent is required to allow any of these exchanges or requests for control and you will be able to revoke it at any time.

Any Vū Technologies data that you choose to share with a third party is governed by that third party’s privacy policy while in that party’s possession. Any data that Vū Technologies received from third-party products and services will be processed and stored by Vū Technologies and will be treated in accordance with this Policy. This information may be processed in the same ways as any other data that is a part of your Vū Technologies account or Vū Technologies logs.

Business Transactions
In the event Vū Technologies is involved in a bankruptcy, merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your information may be sold or transferred as part of that transaction.  This Policy will apply to your information as transferred to the new entity.

For Use In Protecting Property and Security of Users
Vū Technologies may access, preserve, and share your information when Vū Technologies has a good faith belief that it is necessary to: protect the property and security of Vū Technologies, Vū Technologies users, and others; or to prevent death or imminent bodily harm.

Legal Compliance
Vū Technologies may access, preserve, or share your information (including personal information) in response to a legal request (like a search warrant, court order, or subpoena) if Vū Technologies has a good faith belief that the law requires it.  Information concerning you or your drivers may be accessed, processed, and retained for an extended period when it is the subject of a legal request or obligation, government investigation, or investigations concerning possible violations of our terms or policies, or otherwise to prevent harm.

The information we collect may be processed and stored on Vū Technologies servers located in the United States or in other countries.  Your information may be subject to legal requirements, including disclosure requirements, in those jurisdictions.

Data Protection, Security, and Retention

Data Protection and Security
Vū Technologies takes security seriously.  We use commercially reasonable physical, administrative, and technological methods to transmit your data securely including HTTPS, TLS/SSL protocol, AES and RSA data encryption.  The Vū Technologies cloud is supported by third-party vendors and service providers which process and store information in compliance with this Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.

In addition to technological security measures, Vū Technologies places access controls on its employees, contractors, and agents.  We restrict access to any personal information to those Vū Technologies employees, contractors, and agents who need to know that information in order to transmit, store, or process it, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations that are consistent with this Policy, and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.

Vū Technologies cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat our security measures or use your personal information for improper purposes.  In the event that any information in our possession or under our control is compromised as a result of a breach of security, we will take reasonable steps to investigate the situation and, where appropriate, notify those individuals whose information may have been compromised and take other steps, in accordance with any applicable laws and regulations.

Data Retention and Deletion
We will retain the information that you provide only as long as needed to provide you services.  We may retain your personal information after you have closed your account if retention is reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations, meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes between Vū Technologies users, prevent fraud or abuse, or enforce this Policy and our User Agreement.  You can request to delete your personal information from Vū Technologies’ servers via an email request to privacy@vustudio.com.  Because of the way we maintain certain Services, after your information is deleted, backup copies may linger for some time before they are deleted, and we may retain certain data for a longer period of time if we are required to do so for legal reasons.
