Information we collect

Contact information

When you submit an enquiry, we collect the information in the form, which may include your name, email address, phone number, WhatsApp number, country, enquiry type, organisation, role or title, solution interest and message.

Discovery information

When you start a discovery conversation, we collect your name, email address, phone number, WhatsApp number, country, organisation category, organisation activities and challenge statement. Follow-on responses, session references and findings generated during the conversation may also be recorded.

Technical information

Our hosting and application services may process technical information needed to deliver and protect the site, such as IP address, browser and device characteristics, request data and error or security logs. The current site does not intentionally deploy advertising or optional analytics tracking.

Information you choose to provide

Please do not submit passwords, payment-card details, government identifiers, health information or other sensitive personal information through the public forms unless Cognizance has specifically requested and enabled a suitable process.

How we use your information

Responding to enquiries

We use contact submissions to respond to your request, assess the relevant Cognizance capability and coordinate follow-up.

Operating discovery

We use discovery information to create and operate your discovery session, generate structured findings, provide the session experience and route a completed intake for follow-up.

AI-assisted processing

Discovery responses may be processed by configured AI services to ask follow-on questions and produce structured signals or draft findings. AI output is not a final assessment, and formal advisory work remains subject to the applicable engagement process.

Human follow-up

Where follow-up is requested or appropriate, a member of our team may manage the resulting intake through the authenticated Agent Portal. The portal is an internal operational client; it does not create a separate discovery system or replace the applicable privacy and engagement terms.

3.

How we share your information

Cognizance personnel

Information may be made available to Cognizance personnel who need it to respond to your enquiry, manage an intake, operate discovery or provide an agreed service. Access should be limited to the relevant operational need.

Service providers

We may use hosting, application, storage, communications, security and AI service providers to operate the public website and discovery service. They may process information only as necessary for the service and under applicable contractual and security controls.

Legal and safety disclosures

We may disclose information where required by law, legal process, protection of rights, prevention of fraud or abuse, or protection of the safety and security of our services and users.

No sale of data

We do not sell personal information or use discovery content for advertising. We do not permit service providers to use submitted discovery content for their own unrelated purposes.

4.

Data retention

Retention decisions

We retain contact submissions, discovery records, findings and related operational records only for as long as needed for the purpose collected, an agreed engagement, legitimate business administration, security, dispute handling or legal obligations. The applicable schedule is being formalised before production launch.

Browser session data

The public discovery flow stores a session token and related progress in browser session storage. This data may be lost when the session ends or storage is cleared; it is not a promise of a permanent account or archive.

Deletion requests

You may ask us to access, correct or delete personal information through the website contact form. We may need to verify the request and may retain information where required by law, security needs or an engagement agreement.

5.

Security

Technical and organisational measures

We implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or loss. Our security practices are reviewed regularly.

Data breach notification

In the event of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law. Specific notification procedures will be set out in final legal terms.

6.

Your rights

Access and correction

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, and to request correction of inaccurate information.

Objection and restriction

You may have rights to object to or restrict certain types of processing of your personal information, depending on applicable law in your jurisdiction.

Data portability

Where applicable law provides for data portability, you may request a copy of your personal information in a structured, machine-readable format.

Withdrawing consent

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

7.

Cookies and analytics

Current site behavior

The current public site does not intentionally deploy advertising cookies or optional analytics tracking. Hosting and framework services may still use technically necessary mechanisms to deliver, secure and operate the site. We will update this notice and provide any required consent controls before introducing optional tracking.

Browser storage

The discovery flow uses browser session storage to keep temporary progress and a session token while you use the flow. Clearing browser storage, closing the session or changing browsers may remove that local access information.

8.
