The ECLIPSE Suite Website and the ECLIPSE Software itself are property of Sapienza Consulting. We respect your privacy and your rights to control your personal data. Our principle guidelines are simple: We will be clear about the data we collect and why. We will make sure that your personal data are adequately secured. We do not and will not sell your data to third parties.
With this Privacy Statement (the ‘Statement’), we inform you about the personal data we collect from you, either directly or indirectly, and how we will use it. Personal data is any information that can be used to identify you or that we can link to you. This Statement applies to candidates interested in a vacancy and visitors of Sapienza-controlled websites, as well as our customers, subcontractors and other business partners.
Please read this Statement carefully to understand how Sapienza may collect, use and share your personal data. The terms ‘we’, ‘us’, or ‘Sapienza’ are each intended as a reference to Sapienza Consulting Ltd and our affiliates, subsidiaries and holdings.
1 What personal data do we collect about you?
1.1 Website visitors
Our websites contain various forms, such as the “Subscribe” to newsletter form and the “Get a free trial” and “Contact us” buttons which link to the contact form. When you fill in one of these forms, we will use your data for the specific purpose indicated by the form. For instance, when you leave your e-mail address in the “Subscribe” to ECLIPSE Insider Newsletter form, we will send you this newsletter with the latest updates concerning the ECLIPSE Suite. When you fill in the contact form, we will use your information to contact you and provide you with the information you need. We will retain your data for as long as necessary to answer your question or provide you with the requested service.
When you visit our websites, we may automatically collect information about your use of the website or information collected by cookies and similar technologies when you use, access or interact with the website. Please read our cookie statement here.
1.2 Business partners
If you work for one of our customers, subcontractors, other business partners or when you work for a prospective customer, we may process your name, company name, address, email address and phone number.
We use your data to communicate with you with respect to contracts, projects and tender proposals, to maintain the relation we have with you, to send you Christmas cards, newsletters and satisfaction surveys, for accounting purposes and to comply with legal obligations.
Usually we receive this information directly either from you or from your employer. We may sometimes collect your e-mail address or other contact details from the public domain when you have made this information available for this purpose.
For existing and prospective ECLIPSE Software Suite customers, we use a customer relationship management (CRM) tool for storing the customers’ information (name, email, phone number). This tool also stores the emails exchanged with the customers, organised into threads and linked to a certain customer/contract, which allows us to keep track of (potential) sales.
We process your personal data because this is necessary for the performance of a contract we have with you or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract. We also process your personal data because this is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests, such as to improve our services, to maintain our relationship with you, to make you offers, to submit a proposal or to protect our financial interests. We only send newsletters and other commercial mailings to prospective customers with your explicit consent or when we have collected your details from the public domain and are satisfied that we may use these details to contact you.
We retain your personal data for no longer than necessary for the purposes concerned. Contact details of customers and subcontractors are in principle retained for two years after the latest transaction, unless we are legally obliged to retain the data for longer or when there are other compelling reasons for us to keep your data (such as for legal claims). In case of newsletters or other commercial emails that we might send, you can unsubscribe at any time. We will then delete your details from the mailing list.
2 With whom do we share your personal data?
2.1 General
We may disclose your personal data to any member of our group companies, which means our affiliates, subsidiaries and our holding company. In the event that we sell or buy any business, shares in a business or assets, we may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business, shares in a business or assets.
Finally, we may share your personal data with law enforcement authorities or in legal proceedings or in any other situation when required by law. We do not and will not sell your data to third parties.
2.2 Processors
We use a variety of third-party vendors to carry out services, such as hosting, sending newsletters, data analysis, facilitating user interaction and creating reports. We only share your personal data as necessary. These vendors may only process the personal data on behalf of Sapienza and for the purposes described in this Statement.
2.3 Do we transfer your personal data internationally?
When sharing data with third parties, your personal data may be transferred to a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or an international organisation. We take great care in protecting your personal data and have put in place adequate mechanisms to protect it when it is transferred internationally. We will transfer your personal data in compliance with applicable data protection laws and will implement suitable safeguards to ensure that your personal data are adequately secured by any third party that will access your data (for instance, by using the Standard Contractual Clauses as approved by the European Commission).
2.4 Links to websites of third parties
Our websites may, from time to time, contain links to applications or external websites (for example by clicking on the link to follow us on LinkedIn or Twitter you will be directed to an external website). If you follow a link to any external websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and website terms and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies.

Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features which are appropriate to the type of personal data you have provided to try to prevent unauthorised access or inadvertent disclosure.
4 What rights do you have?
