Background
At Envizage, our core mission is to help people plan for an uncertain future. We do this by making our analytic engine available to financial services firms of all sizes, so they can create engaging applications for their customers.
Our goal is to set a high standard for protecting the privacy of your information. We want to be clear about how we collect, use, protect, and share your information, including your personal information, and the rights and choices you have about the ways in which you can help us protect your privacy.
This Privacy Notice explains:
- What information we collect and why we collect it.
- How we use that information and when we disclose it.
- Your rights regarding that information, including how to access and update your information.
- The steps we take to protect your information.
Scope: This Privacy Notice applies to the information that we obtain through your use of Envizage products and services, including our website (envizage.me), our social media, communications, and web-based tools (collectively, our “Services”). For a current list of the Services and vendors covered by this Privacy Notice, see our Subvendor Directory.
This Privacy Notice does not apply to personal information arising from Envizage’s employment-related activities. Except to the extent that a third party provides services on our behalf (such as a SaaS vendor), this Privacy Notice also does not apply to the practices of third parties to which we may link or otherwise refer you, such as consultants, pen testing firms, audit firms, and other vendors.
Geography: Envizage is a U.K.-based company that offers our Services to domestic and international business customers. As a result, information that we collect, including personal information, may be transferred to our U.K. offices to permit us to comply with our legal and contractual obligations, to provide information and services to prospective and current clients, and to perform related business activities. In addition, we may provide information to third-party service providers in the U.K. and in other countries to the extent necessary to support Envizage’s business activities, and we may access personal information collected by our customers to support the Services that we provide to our customers. Thus, personal information may be transferred to and stored on servers located in the U.K. and in countries different from the country in which that information was initially collected. Similarly, information we collect may be accessed by Envizage and our third-party service providers and business partners from countries other than the ones in which the information is stored.
If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Notice or about our privacy or data security practices, please contact us at contact-us@envizage.me

We may share your information in the following ways:
With your express consent: We will share your personal information with companies, organisations, or individuals outside of Envizage when we have your consent to do so.
When you choose to directly share your information while using our Services: When you use our Services, certain features allow you to make some of your content accessible to the public or other users of the Services.

Service providers such as analytics providers may collect information about your online activities over time and across different online services when you use our Services.

We will take reasonable steps to assure that any other entity involved continues to comply with the terms of this Privacy Notice. We will notify you of such a change in ownership or transfer of assets by posting a notice on our website.
Sharing aggregate, anonymized, deidentified, or otherwise non-personal data: We may share aggregated, anonymized deidentified, or otherwise non-personal information that does not directly or indirectly identify you and that cannot, with reasonable effort, be used to reidentify you in order to improve the overall experience of our Services. Such aggregated, anonymized, deidentified, or otherwise not re-identifiable information is not personal information within the scope of this Privacy Notice.

Security
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or data storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. That said, we certainly try very hard, employing a variety of organisational, technical and administrative measures to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk associated with the personal information you trust us with.
To that end, we manage our data protection program to standards consistent with the requirements stipulated by the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and the FCA’s Account Information Services Provider (“AISP”) registration requirements.
Please see our “Information and Data Security” manual (available under NDA on request to contact-us@envizage.me) for more details.
Envizage protects personal information under its control, and requires its service providers (see our Subvendor Directory) to also protect against, accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of or access to, personal data transmitted, stored, or otherwise processed.
If you have concerns about the security of your information with Envizage, please contact us immediately at contact-us@envizage.me to report an issue.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to accomplish the business purpose for which it was collected or to comply with our legal and contractual obligations, plus 3 months, and then securely dispose of that information.
Children’s Privacy
Our Services are not directed to individuals under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that a child under 16 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at contact-us@envizage.me
Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information (EEA Persons Only)
If you are from the European Economic Area, our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Information described above will depend on the Personal Information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.
However, we will normally collect and use Personal Information from you where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data-protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. Typically, our legitimate interests include improving, maintaining, providing, and enhancing our technology, products, and services; ensuring the security of the Services and our Websites; and for our marketing activities.
For example, we may need the Personal Information to perform a contract with you. In some limited cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect Personal Information from you.
If we ask you to provide Personal Information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contact with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your Personal Information is mandatory or not, as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your Personal Information.
Where required by law, we will collect Personal Information only where we have your consent to do so.
If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your Personal Information, please email us at contact-us@envizage.me
