Your privacy is important to us, and we believe it is important for you to know what personal data we, Alcor Solutions, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Alcor”), collect from you (and third parties), why we collect it, how we use it, and what rights you might be entitled to as a data subject or consumer.
We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy, together with any additional and more specific information we may provide to you on various occasions when we are collecting or processing personal data on Alcor websites, products or applications, events, and initiatives so that you are aware of how and the purpose for which we are processing your personal data. (Please note: We issue a different privacy notice which applies where there is an employment relationship between Alcor and its employees.)
Our Privacy Policy applies to all of the websites hosted and offered by Alcor and its affiliates. Our Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of other companies and organizations who advertise our services, and who may use cookies, pixel tags and other technologies to serve and offer relevant ads.
We may collect different kinds of personal data in several different ways and use it for several different purposes:

Information Collected to Administer Events and Initiatives
Alcor frequently organizes events and initiatives, either free to join or by invitation only; in these cases, this Privacy Policy applies to both participants and speakers, together with any other supplementary information that is provided about each event. To allow participants to join the events (including communications pre and post-event), we are required to collect and process a limited amount of information, such as
Events might be recorded; hence pictures and videos may be collected too; in such cases, you may be informed via a specific notice at the location of the recording. This material may be used later by Alcor for further compatible purposes by the notices you receive. Also, during the course of the events, we may collect from your data about yourself, which we later may use to contact you again to receive feedback and/or provide further commercial information about Alcor; this may be done with your consent, wherever necessary. We may also obtain personal data from third parties including third-party event organizers where the event is sponsored by Alcor. Organizers might provide the attendee list. In such cases, the privacy statement of those third parties to whom you provide your personal data will apply to you.
Information Collected to Promote the Alcor Brand, Products, Initiatives, and Values
Alcor has a strong legitimate interest in promoting its brand, products, initiatives, and values. To further such goals, we process personal data about our business contacts including existing and potential Alcor clients, third parties, and intermediaries Alcor interacts with within the course of doing business. Alcor may collect details about you including name, contact details, and other information such as your job title, employer, areas of business interest, and other business details. We may process such personal data using software or platforms which allow us to manage our client relationships. We collect such personal data directly or indirectly from you, or from third parties, such as business partners, data brokers, social networks, marketing companies, and publicly available sources such as social media sites where lawful to do so. In such cases, we will also comply with any additional restrictions imposed by the region in which your personal data was collected as well as the source of the personal data. Alcor may also collect personal data from our email and calendar systems concerning interactions between Alcor associates and contacts or third parties.
Your personal data is used by us in part for administering, managing, and developing our business and services; such as identifying existing and potential client business needs, analyzing and evaluating the strength of our interactions with certain business contacts, performing analytics including producing metrics such as relationship maps for our business leaders and limited profiling to help us to develop and offer appropriate products and services to existing and potential clients. Analytics may be performed by us using algorithms that help us analyze and rank interactions with you depending on interaction frequency and duration. We may also send you marketing communications and surveys to carry out market research or provide information to you about us and our services which we have reason to believe would be of interest to you in your professional capacity.
When reaching out to you, we may do so through different channels, such as email, phone calls, posts, or any other means of communication such as through social media sites such as LinkedIn. We will only send electronic marketing communications to business contacts in a business-to-business context, where we have your prior consent or where it is otherwise lawful to do so in the jurisdiction you are located in. You can opt out from receiving such communications at any time using the Contact Us form on Alcortech.com or affiliate websites where you had given your personal data, writing to us or by any other given method provided from time to time (for example: unsubscribe link included at the bottom of emails).
Information Collected to Manage, Administer and Fulfil Obligations
Where Alcor is in a contractual relationship with you (other than an employment relationship), your employer, or your company, we may need to process your personal data, usually limited to name, business contact details, and job title to enter into and/or fulfil the obligations arising from the same contract. We will also process such personal data for ancillary tasks related to our daily business activities, such as accounting, auditing, and reporting (to regulators and authorities) and to comply with applicable regulations.
If you do not provide certain information when requested, it may delay or prevent us from administering a service you have requested from us or replying to your queries and/or letting you join our initiatives.
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason that is compatible with the original purpose and applicable law. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
