Aiva Martech Privacy Policy
The Aiva Martech Product
The Aiva Martech product is a market leading B2B sales and marketing enablement tool. It is SaaS (Software as a Service) and provides businesses with insight relating to their website visitors. Aiva Martech works on the basis of reverse business IP tracking. A small tracking code is placed on a business’ website(s) which then enables them to identify the business IP addresses of their website visitors. Aiva Martech matches the identified business IP address to a wholly owned global database of businesses and business information.
The Aiva Martech software is almost entirely focused on leveraging business-related information to effectively match a business IP address with wider business data to provide valuable businessrelated visitor information to our customers. Aiva Martech does not identify any personal IP addresses, mobile devices or any other data than that associated with the business.
Business related data is not applicable under the CCPA – which has the intention of protecting personal data. Therefore, the majority of the Aiva Martech solution and its features are not relevant to the CCPA.
Contact Data
An additional feature of Aiva Martech aside from the main solution, is to provide customers with the contact information of key decision makers at the organisations that have pro-actively visited the company website. As this information contains details including first name, last name and email address, this aspect of Aiva Martech could constitute the processing of personal data and therefore required to be compliant with CCPA.
Aiva Martech will only ever collect business IP addresses, which are then matched to a business profile, from there Aiva Martech offers customers the opportunity to purchase the contact details of relevant decision makers within the matched business. This data will have been collected from various publicly available data sources such as LinkedIn. The data available will only relate to decision makers at the organisations that have pro-actively visited a customer’s website. It is anticipated that Aiva Martech customers will select the most appropriate point of contact from the data provided by Aiva Martech to convey a highly relevant, targeted message either by email, telephone or by post to the business address. Any correspondence will be based upon their likely interest in the organisation’s product or service following their visit to the organisation’s website.
Under CCPA, Aiva Martech will only ever process necessary personal data, which is limited to first name, last name, and email address. Aiva Martech will process further business-related data such as business IP, business name, job function and business telephone numbers. No sensitive personal data will be collected or processed in any way. Aiva Martech customers have the option of using Aiva Martech without leveraging contact data, in which case the Aiva Martech solution is unrelated to CCPA on the basis that it will only process business data. Where a customer opts to use the contact data feature of Aiva Martech, it is deemed that the customer will be responsible for ensuring the data used is further processed within their business in a method that is compliant with CCPA – each customer will be responsible for conducting their own due diligence checks and producing their own policies as applicable to their business.
Aiva Martech has carried out various Assessments such as LIA, DPIA and personal data risk assessments. Based upon these assessments it is deemed that the rights and freedoms of any data subject would not be overridden in our processing of the personal data and that in no way would a data subject be caused harm by the Aiva Martech processing. Based upon our segmentation by organisation and by specific job function, coupled with our processing of personal data within the context of a business environment, it is deemed that any processing of data will be limited to business matters, and therefore any risk of personal compromise is extremely unlikely. It is also deemed that direct marketing and sales is necessary in the context of following up with website visitors in order to better serve visitors and to generate business sales.

How we Process Data
The Aiva Martech solution provides businesses with the details of organisations that have visited their website based upon business IP tracking. Aiva Martech matches this data to a database of business points of contact, presenting this information to its customers as potential contacts from the visiting organisation, that based upon the pro-active business visit could be interested in the products/services on offer. In order to do this, Aiva Martech will process first name, surname and business email address along with business data in order to present that information to its customers. The data is presented to customers via a secure, unique log in access to the Aiva Martech portal. Customers have the option of purchasing relevant points of contact, including email addresses and names from the visiting organisations. From that point the data limited to email address, name, and supporting business information including business telephone number will be transferred to the customer, again via the secure portal. Aiva Martech acts as a data processor in this regard, Aiva Martech is not liable for the onward processing of the data via each customer, although we strongly advise all customers to ensure compliance with CCPA in all aspects of personal data processing.
