Home > Online Privacy Statement
Your privacy is important to VirtuPort, maintaining your trust is paramount to us.
We have created this statement to provide you with clear and understandable information regarding our privacy practices when you are accessing or using our website (www.virtuport.com or its local equivalents) so that you can make informed choices about the use of your personal data by VirtuPort.
When accessing other services or applications through our website, please read the specific privacy conditions which may apply to them.
This Statement discloses the information practices for VirtuPort and our subsidiaries’ websites, what type of information about our website’s users is gathered and tracked, and how the information is used, shared, or otherwise processed offline. It also describes how cookies; web beacons and other technologies may be used in our Virtuport services and products and it applies to VirtuPort websites that link to this Statement but does not apply to those VirtuPort websites that have their own Privacy Statement. Additionally, it does not apply to instances where we merely process information on behalf of clients for their benefit, such as when we act as a web hosting service provider.
VirtuPort reserves the right to update this statement from time to time by publishing a new version online. This statement was last updated in August 2023.
This VirtuPort Online Privacy Statement supplements the VirtuPort Privacy Statement.
We may supplement this Statement with additional information relating to a particular interaction we have with you, such as transaction document or a specific privacy statement when you order or use an online service.
If you have questions or complaints regarding our privacy policy or practices, please contact info@virtuport.com.
You may choose to give us personal information directly in a variety of situations. For example, you may want to give us your name and contact information to communicate with you, to order a product, to process an order, to register for a service, to provide you with a subscription, or to do business with us if you are a supplier or a business partner. You may also provide your credit card details to buy something from us or may share a description of your education and work experience in connection with a job opening at VirtuPort for which you wish to be considered. If you tell us that you do not want us to use your information to make further contact with you beyond fulfilling your request, we will respect your wishes.
When you wish to receive information, download publications, enrol for a live or virtual event, we may ask you to provide your name and business contact information, as well as other information in connection with your request. We use this information in connection with your request and to communicate with you. This information may, in most cases, also identify you when you visit our websites. We will retain your information for potential future interactions with you.
We may also collect information relating to your use of our websites using various technologies. For example, when you visit our websites, we may log certain information that your browser sends us, such as your IP address (including information deriving from your IP address such as your geographic location), browser type, version and language, access time, duration of access, and referring website addresses; we may also collect information about the pages you view within our sites, the time you spent on each site and other actions you take while visiting our website. When you access our website without signing in, we will still collect some of this personal information to enable the websites to function properly.
Most information we collect about you comes from our direct interactions with you.
From time to time, we may also collect information that pertains to you indirectly through other sources, such as list vendors. When we do so, we ask the vendors to confirm that the information was legally acquired by the third party and that we have the right to obtain it from them and use it.
When you register for an event, we may collect additional information (online or offline) in relation to the event organization, and during and event, such as participation in sessions and survey results. Events may be recorded, and group photos taken. We reserve the right to use photos for promotional use.

The information that we collect, either directly or indirectly, may be combined to help us improve its overall accuracy and completeness, and to help us better tailor our interactions with you.
