Privacy Policy for Vodli Creative
Effective Date: September 26, 2024
Last Updated: September 26, 2025
I. Introduction and Scope
Who We Are
This Privacy Policy describes how Vodli Creative ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects the personal information of individuals who interact with us. Vodli Creative, a digital growth specialist, is the entity responsible for the processing of your personal information (the "data controller") in the context of this policy. This policy applies to personal information collected through our corporate website, https://www.vodlicreative.com/ (the "Site"), as well as through direct communications and our other business operations.1
Our registered business details are:
Vodli Creative
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
Our mission is to build visibility, familiarity, and trust for our clients, and we extend that same commitment to you.1 We take the protection of your privacy and personal information seriously. We are dedicated to processing your data in a manner that is lawful, fair, transparent, and secure, in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP), the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and other relevant international standards.4
Applicability of This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to personal information for which we are the data controller. This includes information we collect from:
-
Website Visitors: Individuals who browse our Site.
-
Prospective Clients: Individuals who contact us to inquire about our services, for example, by using our "Let's Talk" contact form.
-
Business Contacts: Individuals at current or prospective client organizations and vendors with whom we interact.
It is crucial to distinguish our role in different contexts. When we provide digital marketing services to our clients (e.g., running advertising campaigns), we typically act as a "data processor" on their behalf. In those situations, we process personal information according to the instructions of our client, who is the "data controller." The collection and use of that data are governed by our client's privacy policy, not this one. This policy is strictly limited to the processing activities where Vodli Creative is the data controller, determining the purposes and means of processing.3
Policy Language and Accessibility
In line with global regulatory demands for transparency, this policy is written to be concise, intelligible, and easily accessible, using clear and plain language to avoid technical or legal jargon wherever possible.2 It is available in a format that allows you to print it as a document and is designed to be reasonably accessible to individuals with disabilities.9
II. The Personal Information We Collect and How We Collect It
To provide our services and operate our Site effectively, we collect personal information from various sources. The collection methods and the types of information collected are detailed below, fulfilling our duty to inform you at the point of collection.11
A. Information You Voluntarily Provide to Us
We collect personal information that you knowingly and voluntarily provide to us through direct interaction.
-
Contact Form Submissions: When you use the "Let's Talk" contact form on our Site, we collect the information you enter into the fields. This includes your first name, last name, phone number, company or organization name, email address, and any information you provide in the free-text field describing how we can help you.1
-
Direct Communications: We may collect personal information when you communicate with us directly via email, telephone, or other channels. This can include your name, contact details, the content of your communications, and any other information you choose to provide in the course of your business inquiries or client support interactions.13
B. Information We Collect Automatically (Technical and Usage Data)
When you visit our Site, we automatically collect certain technical and usage information from your device. This automated collection is fundamental to the operation of a modern website and is central to our ability to provide digital marketing services, such as analytics and retargeting. The use of retargeting systems and social ads necessitates this type of data collection, making it a significant component of our data processing activities.1
-
Device and Connection Information: We collect technical data through standard server logs and scripts. This includes your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, operating system, device type, screen resolution, and language settings.13
-
Usage Data: We collect information about how you interact with our Site. This includes the date and time of your visit, the pages you viewed, the time spent on those pages, the links you clicked, the referring website from which you arrived, and your navigation patterns (clickstream data).13
-
Information from Cookies and Tracking Technologies: A significant portion of the automatically collected data is gathered through the use of cookies, web beacons (or pixels), and similar tracking technologies. These technologies place small data files on your device that allow us and our third-party partners to recognize your browser and capture certain information. We use this data for essential website functionality, performance analytics, and, critically, for targeted advertising and retargeting purposes.1 For a detailed explanation of these technologies and how you can control them, please see Section IV: Cookies and Tracking Technologies and Appendix A: Detailed Cookie Disclosure.
C. Information from Third-Party Sources
To the extent permitted by law, we may occasionally receive personal information about you from third-party sources. This can include:
-
Publicly Accessible Sources: We may gather information from publicly available sources such as professional networking sites (e.g., LinkedIn) or company directories for business-to-business marketing and lead generation purposes.4
-
Advertising and Analytics Partners: We may receive aggregated or pseudonymized data from our partners, such as Google or Meta, which helps us measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and understand our website traffic.4
III. How and Why We Use Your Personal Information (Purposes and Lawful Bases)
We are committed to the principle of "purpose limitation," meaning we only collect and process your personal information for specific, explicit, and legitimate purposes. We do not process your data in a manner that is incompatible with these purposes.17 For each purpose, we ensure we have a valid legal justification ("lawful basis") as required by the GDPR and FADP.
The primary purposes for which we use your personal information are:
-
To Provide and Manage Our Services: We use the information you provide, such as your contact and company details, to respond to your inquiries, prepare service proposals, enter into contracts, and manage our ongoing client relationships, including for billing and support purposes.
-
Lawful Basis (GDPR/FADP): Necessary for the performance of a contract with you or for taking steps at your request prior to entering into a contract.
-
For Marketing and Advertising: We use your information to promote our services. This includes sending you direct marketing communications (such as newsletters) if you have consented to receive them. Critically, we use automatically collected data from cookies and pixels to conduct retargeting and behavioral advertising, which involves showing you advertisements for Vodli Creative's services on other websites and social media platforms.1
-
Lawful Basis (GDPR/FADP): Your explicit consent for electronic marketing communications and for the use of all non-essential cookies and tracking technologies for advertising. In limited circumstances for business-to-business outreach, we may rely on our legitimate interest where permitted by law. The use of "legitimate interest" as a basis for tracking-based advertising is highly restricted in the European Union due to the requirements of the ePrivacy Directive, which generally mandates consent for placing cookies and pixels on a user's device.15 Therefore, to ensure the highest standard of compliance across all jurisdictions, our policy and practice is to rely on explicit, opt-in consent for all such activities.
-
To Improve Our Website and Services: We analyze technical and usage data to understand how visitors interact with our Site, identify areas for improvement, enhance user experience, measure the performance of our content, and inform the development of our services.13
-
Lawful Basis (GDPR/FADP): Our legitimate interest in maintaining, securing, and improving our digital presence and business offerings.
-
For Security and Fraud Prevention: We use technical data, such as IP addresses and server logs, to monitor for malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity and to protect the security and integrity of our Site and IT systems.13
-
Lawful Basis (GDPR/FADP): Our legitimate interest in protecting our business, our clients, and our digital assets.
-
To Comply with Legal Obligations: We may need to process your personal information to comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, or other legal processes, such as for financial record-keeping or responding to lawful requests from public authorities.
-
Lawful Basis (GDPR/FADP): Necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject.
Details of Data Processing Activities
To provide maximum transparency in line with the requirements of GDPR Article 13 and FADP Article 19, the following section details our main processing activities, the data involved, their purposes, and the corresponding lawful bases.2 This structured format is designed to be clearer and more accountable than a simple narrative, demonstrating our commitment to the "Accountability" principle of data protection.18

IV. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our Site uses cookies and similar technologies like web beacons (also known as pixels or tags) to function effectively, analyze performance, and deliver targeted advertising. This section provides detailed information about these technologies and your choices regarding them.
What are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
-
Cookies: Small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.
-
Session Cookies: These are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your web browser.15
-
Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period specified in the cookie and are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie.15
-
First-party Cookies: These are set by our website directly.15
-
Third-party Cookies: These are set by a domain other than our website, typically by our advertising and analytics partners.15
-
Web Beacons (Pixels): Tiny graphic images with a unique identifier, embedded invisibly on web pages or in emails. They are used to track the online movements of web users or to know if an email has been opened, primarily for purposes of advertising and analytics.23
How We Use These Technologies
We categorize the cookies and trackers used on our Site based on their purpose:
-
Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the operation of our Site and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences or filling in forms. They enable core functionality like security and network management. These cookies do not require your consent but are always active.15
-
Performance and Analytics Cookies: These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Site. We use services like Google Analytics for this purpose. The information collected is often aggregated and anonymized.15
-
Functional Cookies: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, then some or all of these services may not function properly.26
-
Targeting and Advertising Cookies: These cookies are set through our site by our advertising partners, such as Google, Meta (Facebook), and LinkedIn. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. This is the technology that enables our "retargeting system".1 These cookies uniquely identify your browser and internet device.
Your Choices and How to Manage Cookies
We provide you with robust tools to control the use of non-essential cookies on our Site. Our approach to cookie management is designed to comply with the different legal frameworks applicable to our users. A single, uniform cookie banner is insufficient to meet the divergent requirements of laws like the GDPR and the CCPA. The GDPR mandates an "opt-in" model, where no non-essential cookies can be placed without prior affirmative consent, while the CCPA operates on an "opt-out" model, focused on the right to stop the sale or sharing of data.14 Consequently, our website utilizes a sophisticated Consent Management Platform (CMP) that presents the appropriate interface based on your geographical location.
-
For Users in the European Economic Area (EEA), UK, and Switzerland: You will be presented with a cookie consent banner upon your first visit. Non-essential cookies (including Performance, Functional, and Advertising cookies) will be blocked by default and will only be activated if you provide your explicit, affirmative consent by clicking "Accept" or by enabling them through the granular settings. You have the right to reject all non-essential cookies without affecting your access to our Site's core functionality.14
-
For Users in California (and other US states with similar laws): You will be provided with a notice at collection, often via a cookie banner, that informs you about our use of cookies and your right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information that may occur through advertising cookies. These cookies may be active by default, but you can opt-out at any time by clicking the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link.16
-
Managing Your Preferences: Regardless of your location, you can change your cookie preferences at any time. We provide a persistent link or icon, typically in the footer of our Site, that allows you to access our cookie settings and withdraw or modify your consent or opt-out choices as easily as you made them.14
-
Browser Settings: Most web browsers also allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these settings in the "options" or "preferences" menu of your browser.
-
Global Privacy Control (GPC): As required by the CCPA/CPRA, our Site is configured to recognize and honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals sent by your browser as a valid request to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your personal information.24
Detailed Cookie Information
For a comprehensive and granular list of every cookie and tracker used on our Site, including its provider, specific purpose, category, and expiration period, please refer to Appendix A: Detailed Cookie Disclosure at the end of this policy.
V. Disclosure and Sharing of Personal Information
We do not sell your personal information in the traditional sense of exchanging it for monetary payment. However, we do disclose or "share" personal information with third parties for specific business purposes as described below. The definitions of "sell" and "share" under laws like the CCPA are very broad and can include activities such as using third-party advertising cookies.11
We may disclose your personal information to the following categories of third-party recipients:
-
Service Providers and Processors: We engage third-party companies and individuals to perform services on our behalf. These include website hosting providers, cloud storage providers, email service providers (for newsletters), and customer relationship management (CRM) platforms. These providers are contractually obligated to process your data only for the purposes we specify and to implement appropriate security measures.3
-
Advertising and Analytics Partners: We share information with partners like Google (for Google Analytics and Google Ads) and Meta (for Facebook and Instagram advertising) to help us analyze website usage and deliver targeted advertising. As detailed below, this activity may be considered "sharing" under California law.1
-
Professional Advisors: We may disclose your personal information to our professional advisors, such as lawyers, accountants, auditors, and insurers, where necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us.
-
Legal and Governmental Authorities: We may disclose your personal information if we believe in good faith that it is necessary to do so to comply with a legal obligation, in response to a lawful request by public authorities, to protect and defend our rights or property, to prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with our services, or to protect the personal safety of users or the public.
Specific Disclosures for California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)
This section provides additional disclosures required under the California Consumer Privacy Act.
-
Disclosure Regarding "Sale" and "Sharing" of Personal Information: While we do not exchange personal information for money, our use of third-party advertising and analytics cookies may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information under the CCPA/CPRA's expansive definitions. Specifically, when we use tracking technologies from advertising networks and social media platforms, we allow them to collect identifiers (like cookie IDs and IP addresses) and information about your internet activity. This is done for the purpose of "cross-context behavioral advertising," which is the practice of targeting advertising to you based on your activity across different websites and services.29 This activity is the technical foundation of our retargeting system and is a central part of our business model, making compliance with the CCPA's "sharing" rules a critical priority.1
-
Categories of Personal Information "Shared" or "Sold": In the preceding 12 months, we have "shared" or "sold" the following categories of personal information for the purpose of cross-context behavioral advertising:
-
Identifiers: Such as IP addresses, unique device identifiers, and cookie IDs.
-
Internet or Other Electronic Network Activity Information: Such as your browsing history, search history, and information regarding your interaction with our Site.
-
Categories of Third Parties to Whom Personal Information was "Shared" or "Sold":
-
Advertising Networks
-
Social Media Platforms
-
Your Right to Opt-Out: As a California resident, you have the right to opt-out of this "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information. You can exercise this right at any time by clicking the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link available in the footer of our Site and detailed in Section VIII of this policy.
VI. International Data Transfers
Vodli Creative is based in [User's Country]. The personal information we collect will be stored and processed on servers which may be located outside of your state, province, or country of residence, including in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.
Specifically for residents of Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA), please be aware that your personal information will be transferred to, and processed in, countries outside of these regions. Our primary service providers, including Google and Meta, are headquartered in the United States.32 The U.S. is not currently considered by the European Commission or the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) to provide an "adequate" level of data protection.2
To ensure that your personal information is protected when it is transferred internationally, we implement appropriate legal safeguards. The primary mechanism we rely upon for transfers of personal data from Switzerland and the EEA to countries without an adequacy decision is the use of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission and recognized by Swiss authorities.2 These clauses impose contractual data protection obligations on the recipient of the data. This is not a passive step; it reflects an active commitment to vet our vendors and ensure valid data transfer mechanisms are in place, as required by law following recent legal judgments concerning EU-US data flows.18 You may request further information about the specific safeguards we have in place by contacting us.2
VII. Data Security and Retention
Data Security
We are committed to protecting the security of your personal information. We implement and maintain a range of appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the personal data we process against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access.5 These measures include:
-
Using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) / Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption for data transmitted to and from our Site.
-
Implementing access controls to limit access to personal information to authorized personnel who have a legitimate business need.
-
Regularly reviewing our information collection, storage, and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems.
While we take these precautions, please be aware that no security system is impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information.
Data Retention
We adhere to the principle of "storage limitation," meaning we retain your personal information only for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, accounting, or reporting requirements.17
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process it, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. The act of defining these retention periods in our policy creates a binding operational commitment; we must have internal processes in place to enforce these data lifecycle rules, such as configuring our analytics tools to automatically delete data after a set period.
Specific retention periods or the criteria used to determine them are as follows:
-
Information from Contact Forms: We retain this data for the duration of the business inquiry and for a reasonable period thereafter for follow-up communications (e.g., 12 months). If you become a client, this information will be retained as part of your client file.
-
Client Data: We retain personal information related to our clients for the duration of our contractual relationship and for a subsequent period as required by applicable financial and tax laws (e.g., 7-10 years).
-
Website Analytics Data: Data collected for analytics purposes is typically retained in an identifiable form for a limited period (e.g., 26 months), after which it is anonymized or aggregated.
-
Cookie Consent Records: We retain records of your consent or opt-out choices for the period required to demonstrate compliance with data protection laws.
-
Marketing Data: If you have consented to receive marketing communications, we will retain your contact information until you unsubscribe or withdraw your consent.
VIII. Your Data Protection Rights
You have specific legal rights regarding your personal information. This section outlines those rights and explains how you can exercise them. We have established internal procedures to ensure we can receive, verify, track, and respond to your requests in a timely and compliant manner. This section serves as a public-facing guide to an internal operational program for managing data subject rights.
A. How to Exercise Your Rights

-
Emailing us at: privacy@vodlicreative.com

We will respond to your request within the timeframe required by applicable law (typically within one month for GDPR/FADP requests and 45 days for CCPA requests, with a possible extension under certain circumstances).3 We will not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. Before we can fulfill your request, we may need to verify your identity to protect your information.
B. Specific Provisions for Residents of the European Economic Area (EEA), UK, and Switzerland (under GDPR & FADP)
If you are a resident of the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you have the following rights under the GDPR and/or FADP:

-
The Right to Data Portability: You have the right to request that we transfer the data that we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, under certain conditions.19
-
The Right to Withdraw Consent: Where we rely on your consent as the legal basis for processing, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing conducted prior to your withdrawal.2
-
Rights in Relation to Automated Decision-Making and Profiling: You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.2 We will inform you if such processing takes place and provide you with an opportunity to request human intervention.
-
The Right to Lodge a Complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. For Switzerland, this is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC). For the EEA, this is the authority in the country of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement.2
C. Specific Provisions for Residents of California (under CCPA & CPRA)
If you are a resident of California, you have the following rights under the CCPA/CPRA. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.

(link-to-limit-use-page)
-
The Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. This means we will not deny you goods or services, charge you different prices, or provide you a different level or quality of services for exercising your rights.11
IX. Children's Privacy
Our Site and services are not directed to or intended for use by individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 16, we will take steps to delete such information from our records promptly.6
Under the CCPA/CPRA, we are prohibited from selling or sharing the personal information of a consumer we know to be under 16 years of age unless we receive affirmative authorization ("opt-in"). For consumers aged 13 to 16, this consent can come from the consumer themselves. For consumers under 13, it must come from a parent or guardian.25 As we do not target our services to minors, we do not seek such consent.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at privacy@vodlicreative.com so that we can take appropriate action.
X. Policy Updates and Contact Information
Changes to This Privacy Policy
The world of data privacy is constantly evolving. We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy. The CCPA requires that we review and update our policy at least once every 12 months.11 We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information.

Data Controller:
Vodli Creative
Email: privacy@vodlicreative.com
Representative in the European Union / United Kingdom
The GDPR may require companies outside the EU that process the personal data of EU residents to appoint a representative within the EU.

Our appointed representative in the European Union and the United Kingdom for data protection matters is:
We have assessed our obligations under Article 27 of the GDPR and have determined that, at present, our processing activities do not require the appointment of a representative in the European Union or the United Kingdom. We will continue to monitor this position.
Representative in Switzerland
The revised Swiss FADP requires private controllers domiciled abroad to designate a representative in Switzerland if they process personal data of individuals in Switzerland in connection with offering goods or services or monitoring their behavior, and if the processing is regular, large-scale, and poses a high risk.34 Given the nature of digital advertising and analytics, this requirement may apply.
