If there is any conflict between the terms in this privacy policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the Principles shall govern.

Collected Data & Data Usage:

MMS collects Data from individuals who visit our website (“Visitors”) and individuals who use MMS services (“Customers”).
When you request additional information about MMS, contact MMS via our website, or register to use MMS services, MMS may require you to provide contact information such as your name, company name, title, address, phone number(s), fax number, and email address. When purchasing MMS services, financial qualification and billing information may be requested, such as billing name and address, credit card number, and the number of project team members.

MMS uses the collected Data to perform the requested services. For example, if you complete a web contact form, MMS will use the information provided to contact you with details regarding the MMS services of interest.
MMS may also use the collected Data for marketing or other legitimate business purposes. For example, MMS may use the collected Data to contact you to further discuss your interest in MMS services, and to send information regarding our company or partners, which may include promotions and events. You may opt-out of receiving marketing communications from MMS at any time by referring to the Opt-Out Policy below.

All financial and billing information collected is used solely to verify the qualifications of prospective Customers and to invoice for services provided. Financial and billing information is not used by MMS for marketing or promotional purposes.

MMS may also collect information about your interaction with our website. For example, MMS may use technologies, such as cookies (described below), to collect information about the pages you view, the links you click and other actions you take on our site. Additionally, MMS may also collect certain standard information that your browser sends to every website you visit, such as your IP address, access times, and referring website addresses. This information is primarily used to help diagnose technical problems, for administrative purposes, to compile non-identifying aggregate statistics about site usage and to improve the quality of our website and services.

Cookies:

When you interact with the MMS website or software service, we may use cookies to help make your experiences easy and meaningful. “Cookies” are a technology employed by many other websites and are small data files stored on your computer. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.

Standing alone, cookies do not identify you personally. They merely recognize your browser. Unless you choose to identify yourself to MMS, either by responding to a promotional offer, completing a contact or interest form or registering for an account, you remain anonymous to MMS.

There are two types of cookies, session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies exist only during an online session. They disappear from your computer when you close your web browser or turn off your computer. Persistent cookies remain on your computer after you’ve closed your browser or turned off your computer. They include information such as a unique identifier for your browser.

MMS may use persistent cookies to identify the fact that you are a MMS Customer or prior MMS website Visitor (whichever the case may be). MMS is particularly careful about the security and confidentiality of the information stored in persistent cookies. For example, MMS does not store account numbers or passwords in persistent cookies. Users can disable their web browsers’ ability to accept cookies and will still be able to browse the MMS website.

Third-Party Cookies:

Third-Party Sites:

MMS recognizes potential liability in cases of onward transfer to third parties. MMS will not transfer any personal information to a third-party without first ensuring that the third-party adheres to the Data Privacy Framework principles.

Sharing of Collected Data:

MMS may also use a third-party intermediary to manage the credit card processing. This intermediary is solely a link in the distribution chain, and is not permitted to store, retain, or use the Data provided, except for the sole purpose of credit card processing.

MMS will not disclose personally identifiable Data to any third party unless it first either ascertains that the third party adheres to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the U.K Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, or is subject to GDPR EU Directive on Data Protection or another adequacy finding, or enters into a written agreement with such third party requiring that the third party provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the relevant Data Privacy Framework Principles.

Opt-Out Policy:

MMS offers Visitors and Customers a means to choose how we may use the Data provided. If, at any time after providing MMS with Data, you change your mind about receiving commercial information from MMS or about sharing your Data with third parties, send a request specifying your new choice to DPO@mmsholdings.com

Customers can not opt-out of receiving emails from MMS that are directly related to their use of MMS services such as email notifications, or service notifications.

MMS is dedicated to maintaining accurate and up to date Customer Data. If you need to update Data and/or billing information or to have your information deleted please emailDPO@mmsholdings.com or call +1 855 667 9444. MMS will respond to your correction or update request within 30 days from the date of your request.

Customer-Provided Data & Data Services:

Security & Breach Notification:

If individual personal Data is acquired, or is reasonably believed to have been acquired, by an unauthorized person and applicable law requires notification of affected individuals, MMS will issue a notification of the breach by email or fax or, if MMS is unable to contact the individual by these means, then by U.S. mail. Notice will also be sent to Customers when a breach affects Customer-provided Data, and to legal and law enforcement authorities as required under current laws and regulations. Any measures necessary for MMS or legal and law enforcement to determine the scope of the breach and to assure or restore the integrity of the data system will be taken. MMS may delay notification to Customers and/or individuals if MMS or a law enforcement agency determines that the notification will impede a criminal investigation, unless and until MMS or the agency determines that notification no longer compromises an investigation.

Internal Complaints Mechanism, Enforcement & Dispute Resolution:
