Gitrevio (“we”/”us”), are committed to protecting and respecting any personal information you share with us

This Privacy Policy describes what type of information we collect from you, how it is used by us, how we share data with others, how you can manage the information we hold and how you can contact us.

The following information outlines how we handle the data we collect from you and other users through various interactions such as visiting our websites or social media pages, or reaching out to us directly.

We may supplement this Privacy Policy with an additional statement or information that we will provide to you in relation to any additional activities we carry out using your personal information.

For the purposes of data protection laws, Gitrevio is a “controller” of your personal information which means Gitrevio decides why and how it is processed. It also means we are responsible for that processing, which extends to those of our subcontractors who process your information based on our instructions.

We collaborate with other, more independent organisations in relation to certain processing activities outlined in this Privacy Policy, for example, with social media platforms.

When information is collected and shared with these organisations for purposes that serve both our interests, or when decisions about processing are made jointly, we act as joint controllers under data protection laws. This means that both we and the respective organisations share responsibility for how your data is used.

*Joint privacy statements with social media companies relating to processing of your information for marketing and insight related activities (see “How do we share information?” below)

Where relevant, our Cookie Policy will also describe the processing of any information we receive through the use of cookies on our website for which we are a joint controller with another organisation.

In other circumstances, the organisation receiving your information will be separately responsible to you and use your personal information in the ways described in its privacy policy (and not ours).
