AVIO Privacy Policy
Last Updated: January 1, 2025
Welcome to Avio Medtech Consulting. We understand the importance of your privacy and we take our responsibility to protect it seriously. This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) describes the types of information we collect from you through your access and use of our website, when you interact with us, or otherwise communicate with us (collectively, the “Services”). This Policy also describes how we use and disclose such information, and certain rights and options you have regarding your information.
​
By providing us with personal information or using the Services, you expressly consent to the information-handling practices described in this Policy. If you do not agree with this Policy, please do not use the Services or provide us with your information.
Important Information About This Policy
While we always aim to provide complete and transparent information about how we process your personal information, we reserve the right to amend or update this Policy from time to time, or to create additional policies, in order to accurately reflect changed circumstances or new legal requirements. As a result, it is important that you read this Policy closely so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your personal information.
To assist us in ensuring that we can provide the most accurate information possible, we ask that you check this Policy for updates. We also ask that, where we have an ongoing relationship with you and any of the data you have provided becomes no longer accurate, you keep us informed of this so we can amend our records accordingly.
Personal Information We May Collect or Receive About You
For the purposes of this Policy, “personal information” is any information that identifies, relates to, or can be used to contact a particular individual. The types of personal information we collect and receive about you includes the following categories.

​

Customer support information – details of any communications or inquiries you submit to us, including technical or customer support requests, through email, calls, chat, or other features available in our Services.

Job applicant information - if you are a job applicant, we may also collect information about you that you submit to us in response to our company job posting. In addition to your contact information, we may collect your education and previous employment information, as well as any resumes, cover letters, or other relevant documents, in connection with your application.

Please note that we may aggregate or anonymize the foregoing types of data such that they are no longer capable of identifying you, in which case they are no longer considered “personal information.”
​
B. Automatically Collected Information
​
Like most website operators, we use various technologies to automatically collect information about visitors. Those technologies include:
-
Cookies. Cookies are small text files that a website transfers to a visitor’s browser or device for recordkeeping purposes. We use cookies to personalize visitors’ experiences on our website, provide content that we believe may be of interest, track visitor trends and patterns, engage in marketing and advertising, and otherwise analyze our website traffic. For further information about cookies, including how to refuse cookies, please visit www.allaboutcookies.org. Please note that if cookies are disabled, you may not be able to enjoy certain features of our website.
​
-
Log Files and Device Identifiers. We use log files to track actions occurring on the website and collect data about visitors, including IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, date/time stamps, and device identifiers. This information is used for security purposes and to detect and prevent fraud.
​
-
Pixels, tags, and web beacons. Our website may also use “pixels,” “tags,” or “web beacons.” When we refer to “pixels,” we are generally referring to all of these types of technologies. These technologies are small pieces of code that run when a page or email is loaded. They are used to monitor the behavior of the visitor or email recipient—such as what icons were clicked or whether links in an email were opened—and gather analytics. For example, when you open our homepage, a pixel may run and generate information based on the visit, and then this information is processed by us and our vendors. Pixels work in conjunction with cookies to let us know what portions of our website are of interest to you and to help us provide you with tailored information from our website. If you turn off cookies, the pixels, tags, and web beacons we use may still detect certain information about your interaction with our website and disregard any cookie-prohibitive markers or signals. Note, the vendors that supply us these pixels, tags, web beacons, or similar tracking technologies collect your personal information instantaneously and simultaneous to our collection of your information and they may use the information for their own or others’ purposes.
​
-
Analytics. Our website may also use third-party analytics tools, such as Google Analytics. You can find more information about how data is collected and processed in connection with the Google Analytics service here. You can also read Google’s privacy policy here.
​
The information collected through these technologies may be combined with personal information or aggregated with other information on website visits. We may disclose information about your use of our website to our advertising and analytics partners, who may combine it with other information that you previously provided to them.
​
C. Information from Other Sources
We may obtain both personal and non-personal information about you from affiliates, business partners, vendors, contractors, suppliers, and other third parties and add it to other information we have collected. We, and the third parties we engage, may combine information we collect from you over time, and across the Services, with information obtained from other sources. This helps us improve the information’s overall accuracy and completeness, and also helps us better tailor our interactions with you.
​
D. Information from Social Media
If you interact with us on any social media platform (e.g., LinkedIn), depending on your social media privacy settings, the personal information that you submit on the social media platform may be read, collected, or used by us as described in this Policy. In addition, where we respond to any interaction with you on social media, your account name/handle may be viewable by any and all members or users of our social media accounts.
​
Social media platforms operate independently from us and we are not responsible for the personal information that you choose to submit or link on any social media platform. We encourage you to review the privacy policies and settings of any social media platform with which you interact to help you understand their privacy practices.
​
