Privacy Policy

Triente, Inc. ("Triente," "we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of personal information entrusted to us. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard personal information obtained through our website (triente.com) and in the course of our professional engagements.

By accessing our website or submitting information through our contact forms, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

We may collect the following categories of personal information:

Information you provide directly. This includes your name, professional title, employer, business email address, phone number, country of residence, and any other information you voluntarily provide when completing our contact form or corresponding with us via email.

Usage and technical data. When you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain technical information, including your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, pages visited, time spent on pages, referring URL, and other diagnostic data. This information is collected through standard server logs and, where applicable, cookies.

Communications. We retain records of correspondence you initiate with us, including inquiry messages and email exchanges, to the extent necessary to respond to and manage your requests.

We use the personal information we collect for the following purposes:

• To respond to inquiries and assess potential engagement opportunities
• To communicate with you regarding our services, publications, and firm updates where you have indicated an interest or where we have a legitimate professional interest in doing so
• To maintain and improve our website and digital presence
• To comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations
• To protect the rights, property, and safety of Triente, our clients, and the public

We do not use personal information for automated decision-making or profiling, and we do not sell personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

Where applicable under data protection law (including the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") and equivalent legislation), we rely on the following legal bases for processing personal information:

• Legitimate interests: To respond to business inquiries, manage our client relationships, and operate and improve our website
• Contractual necessity: To fulfill obligations arising from an engagement or pre-contractual discussions
• Legal obligation: To comply with applicable laws and regulations
• Consent: Where you have expressly provided consent, which you may withdraw at any time

Triente does not sell, rent, or trade personal information. We may disclose personal information in limited circumstances:

Service providers. We may engage third-party vendors who assist us in operating our website and business (e.g., hosting providers, email platforms). These parties access personal information only as necessary to perform services on our behalf and are contractually bound to treat such information with confidentiality.

Professional advisors. We may share information with our legal, accounting, or other professional advisors where required in the ordinary course of business.

Legal requirements. We may disclose personal information if required to do so by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe such disclosure is necessary to protect our legal rights or the safety of individuals.

Business transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our business, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to equivalent privacy protections.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include access controls, encryption in transit, and internal data handling policies consistent with professional services industry standards.

Notwithstanding these precautions, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted to or from our website.

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying legal, regulatory, accounting, or reporting requirements. The criteria used to determine retention periods include the nature of the information, the purpose for collection, and any applicable statutory obligations.

In general, inquiry and contact information is retained for a period of three (3) years unless an engagement relationship develops, in which case longer retention periods apply in accordance with professional standards.

Triente operates in the United States and the United Kingdom. If you are located outside these jurisdictions, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in a country with data protection laws that differ from your own. Where we transfer personal information from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland to other countries, we rely on appropriate safeguards, including standard contractual clauses approved by relevant data protection authorities.
