We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems, to administer our website, and to gather demographic information. We may also use IP addresses or other information, such as information you have shared on this website or at any earlier occasion, to determine which pages on our sites are being visited and topics that may be of interest so we can provide you with information about relevant products and services.

When you visit our site, we recognize only your domain name.

Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.

Google has developed the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. It provides website visitors more choice on how their data is collected by Google Analytics. The add-on communicates with the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js) to indicate that information about the website visit should not be sent to Google Analytics.
In addition to the information you provide, VILT Group may also collect information during your visit to a VILT Group website through automated tools, which include Web beacons, cookies, embedded Web links, and other commonly used information-gathering tools. These tools collect certain standard information that your browser sends to our website such as your browser type and language, access times, and the address of the website from which you arrived at a VILT website. Using these tools, VILT Group is also able to confirm receipt of e-mails that the recipient consented to receive, and can track other information such as pages visited on the VILT Group website and whether or not the recipient registers for an event offered by VILT Group and certain other aggregate data that is not related to a particular individual.
Emails from VILT Group often use links designed to lead you to a relevant area on the Web, after redirection through VILT Group’s servers. The redirection system allows VILT Group to change the destination URL of these links, if necessary, and to determine the effectiveness of our marketing initiatives.
In emails, such links may also allow VILT Group to determine if you have clicked on a link in the email, and the information about this interaction may be connected to your personal identity. If you do not want VILT Group to collect information about the links you clicked, you can simply choose not to click on the links in an e-mail that VILT Group sends you.
We use cookies to deliver personalized content, to save you having to re-enter your data repeatedly and to tailor our information offerings to how you and others use the site.
If you choose to give us your e-mail address, we will communicate with you via e-mail. We do not share your e-mail address with others outside VILT Group. You can choose not to receive any more e-mail at any time.
Depending on how your e-mail application is set up, information about you may be transmitted automatically when you send e-mail to VILT Group.
If you choose to register for third-party services, we may need to send some information from you to the service provider, possibly including your e-mail address.
VILT Group does not sell or rent your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes.
We may respond to court orders, or legal process by disclosing your personal data and other related information, if necessary. We also may choose to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.
Circumstances may arise where, whether for strategic or other business reasons, VILT Group decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize businesses in some countries. Such a transaction may involve, in accordance with applicable law, the disclosure of personal information to prospective or actual purchasers, or the receipt of it from sellers. It is VILT Group’s practice to seek appropriate protection for information in these types of transactions.
We may collect and possibly share personal data and any other additional information available to us in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of VILT Group’s terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.
While visiting VILT Group’s website you may be directed to content or functionality that is hosted by a third-party supplier, not on vilt-group.com. Most often, this is done to host special events, such as contests or seminars. When information is collected on behalf of VILT Group exclusively, the appropriate VILT Group entity’s Privacy Statement will be referenced on the site and will govern how information is used. For other, non-VILT Group’s sites, the site’s owner’s privacy policy will be referenced. It is VILT Group’s practice to require such suppliers and business partners to handle information in a manner consistent with VILT Group’s Privacy Statement.
VILT Group is committed to protecting the personal data you share with us. VILT Group uses a combination of industry-standard security technologies, procedures, and organizational measures to help protect your personal data from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. VILT Group supports online security using secure server technology because we want your data to be safe. There are state-of-the-art security arrangements and facilities on VILT Group sites to prevent abuse.
We bind our employees to observe your privacy and confidentiality rights.
When personal data is provided hand-in-hand to a VILT employee, for instance, a curriculum vitae submitted in paper on an event, VILT commits to convert that information into a digital format, and to destroy the original physical content, in 12 months, guaranteeing the security and preservation of that data in an electronic format according to the remaining terms of this privacy policy.
As previously referred, we bind our employees to observe your privacy and confidentiality rights. This binding applies to both our customer data and the personal data stored in our customer's systems, to which we have access in the scope of the services being provided.
Additionally, the data, that resides in our customer’s systems, is never copied or stored in VILT’s infrastructure.
This site may contain links to other sites. VILT Group is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of other websites outside VILT Group.
We communicate with users who subscribe our newsletter on a regular basis via email. We may use your email address to send you information about changes to our products and services, and to send notices and other disclosures as required by law.
VILT Group provides you the opportunity to exercise an opt-out choice if you do not want to receive other types of communication from us such as emails or updates from us regarding new services and products offered on this website or if you do not want us to share your personal information with third parties.
The opt-out choice may be exercised by unsubscribing at marketing@vilt-group.com or using the options available on the communication.
VILT Group will retain your personal data for a period of 10 years after fulfilling the purposes for which it was collected or as required by applicable laws or regulations.
The Green IT is a certification that evaluates the sustainability of IT companies through a rigorous standard that includes guidelines, procedures and specifications for monitoring.
Our Green IT strategy will allow a reduction in costs, with the reduction of energy consumption in the order of 15%, and reduced paper use by the expansion of our Document Management System to other departments and business processes.
The challenge VILT faces is to maintain its commitment to maximize energy efficiency, purchasing certified hardware, promote recycling and biodegradability of no longer used products and work with suppliers who have the same kind of environmental concerns.
All monitoring of this activity is the responsibility of the entity SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance), regarded as the world's largest organization in the field of inspection, verification, testing and certification.
In order to fulfill the mission to which it proposes, VILT undertakes to develop, maintain and improve its Quality Management System, in order to:
In an increasingly global, competitive and aggressive market only the best survives!
Aware of this, VILT knows that just by innovating and providing to the clients' solutions that make them differentiate from their competitors, that give them more competition and to allow them to adapt quickly to a changing market, we will be able to continue to receive recognition from clients.
