Emerse never stores personal information such as name, adress, telephone number or email as part of our advertising technology platform or as part of the serving of advertisements we do for advertising and advertising agency clients.
Any data used in or stored by our technology platform is always anonymous and does not contain personal information.

We require our technology partners and clients to make sure any data used in connection with our technology platform is also anonymous.
The only situation we store personal information such as your name is when you contact our team through a “Contact us” form on one of our websites or sign up to a communication service with us such as a newsletter. When you supply any personal information to Emerse, we have legal obligations towards you in the way we use this data. We must collect the information fairly, that is, we must explain how we will use it, and tell you if we want to pass the information on to anyone else.
When using your personal information, Emerse will act in accordance with current legislation and is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely, in accordance with the Personal Data Act.
