Privacy Policy
Effective Date: November 22, 2021
Policy Scope
This Privacy Policy (Policy) sets forth the Rigicon, Inc. (Rigicon) privacy practices regarding the collection and use of personal data relating to Rigicon websites (Sites) addressing the United States, Europe including mobile sites and our applications. Rigicon is dedicated to treating people with respect, transparency, and integrity; therefore, we don’t sell or lease your personal data to a third party. This Policy also describes your choices regarding our use of your personal data and how you can access and update your information. When we refer to Rigicon, we mean Rigicon Corporation, including our affiliates and subsidiaries. Rigicon adheres to privacy best practices, including the Generally Accepted Privacy Principles (GAPP), and complies with international personal data transfer framework requirements.
International users who access our international, EU Sites and applications or provide information to Rigicon, understand and agree with Rigicon’s legitimate interest to collect, use, disclose, retain and transfer your personal data to the United States and other countries and territories for the purposes stated in this Policy. This includes, but is not limited to, the transfer of personal data between Rigicon’s third parties, affiliates, and subsidiaries located in the United States and globally.
Rigicon remains accountable for onward transfers of EU personal data to third-party agents acting on Rigicon’s behalf, where those parties have processed personal data in a manner inconsistent with the Principles unless Rigicon proves it is not responsible for the event.
Rigicon protects any EU information transferred to other third countries by introducing privacy provisions to our contracts with online providers or by ensuring the providers adopt the EU standard contractual clauses of the European Commission to ensure information is protected in an adequate manner.

Personal data is data that can be used to identify or contact you, such as your name, email address, telephone number, or similar information. Rigicon collects personal data you voluntarily give us, such as but not limited to, requesting information via our Sites, resume submission, online event registration, or Site registration. We provide interactive digital health tools through which information is collected from users. We also collect information about your interactions with our Sites and applications (e.g., browsing behavior). Our Sites automatically track certain behavior (Usage Data) during visits, such as, referring/exit URLs and we also collect other basic information about you which does not directly identify you but which may correspond with you or a particular device. We use this information to learn more about how our websites and online resources are used and to otherwise improve and administer the site. We also use this information to enable us to deliver information tailored to your interests and preferences, based on your use of the site. For example, we may collect the Internet Protocol Address assigned to your computer by your internet service provider. This address may change each time you connect to the internet (a “dynamic” IP address), or it may remain the same (a “static” IP address). In most cases, this information is collected automatically, for our legitimate business interests. In some jurisdictions, we are required to ask for your consent before collecting this information, in which case you will be presented with a choice as to whether you wish to allow the collection and use of this type of information, generally, this will present itself in the form of a consent banner (providing you with a choice to accept or reject such collection). If you are a registered user, we may use your Usage Data with or without your personal data, in order to measure the Site’s performance and improve the Site’s design and functionality.
