1. Introduction
Welcome to Viable Synergy’s website. Viable Synergy (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is fully committed to meeting the standards of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in protecting your privacy and data security rights.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information of individuals who visit and interact with the Viable Synergy website (the “Site”). It applies to all visits to www.viablesynergy.com and any associated subdomains.
By accessing or using the Site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy as outlined below. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, we respectfully ask that you refrain from using the Site.
2. Information We Collect
We collect several types of data to operate effectively and deliver meaningful experiences. This includes information you provide directly, data collected automatically through your use of the Site, and information from third-party services.

- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Company name
- Job title or role
- Any other content submitted through forms or correspondence
We do not collect personal information simply by your visit to our Site. Personal data is only collected when you intentionally share it with us, such as by completing a form or contacting us directly—and only with your explicit consent.
In these cases, we use the information you provide to respond to your inquiry, deliver relevant content or services, and, if you consent, to send promotional or informational messages. You can unsubscribe from these communications at any time using the link provided in our emails.
Automatically Collected Information (Usage Data):
When you access the Site, we may collect:

- Internet Service Provider (ISP)
- Referring and exit pages
- Pages visited and time spent
- Device type and operating system
- Geographic location (country, state, city)
- Interaction patterns such as clicks, scrolls, or form inputs (non-identifying)
This information helps us understand how visitors use our Site, identify trends, and improve performance and user experience.
Miscellaneous Data:
We may also collect other information you intentionally and voluntarily share with us—such as through surveys, interviews, or support interactions (e.g., customer support, interviews, feedback sessions). This may include feedback, preferences, or other details relevant to services or partnerships.
Tracking Technologies & Cookies:
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, analyze user behavior, and improve the Site. These tools help us understand how users interact with our content and support more effective communication and design decisions.
Cookies may include:
- Session cookies (to manage session state)
- Security cookies (to help protect user data)
- Analytics cookies (e.g., Google Analytics, Meta Pixel) to understand how visitors use our Site
To achieve this, we allow third-party analytics providers such as Google Analytics and Meta (Facebook) to place and use their own cookies when you visit our Site. These services help us collect details like traffic volume, navigation paths, time spent on pages, and user interaction patterns. This information is used to improve the usability and performance of our Site.
You may configure your browser to accept or reject cookies. Rejecting cookies may limit some functionality, but you will still be able to use the Site. To remove cookies previously accepted, clear them in your browser settings.
When required by law, we obtain your consent before placing cookies on your device. We do not collect personal information via cookies unless you have consented to such collection.
