Privacy Policy
Version 2.5 - Effective Date: September 10, 2026
1. Introduction - Who We Are and What This Policy Covers
This Website Privacy Policy describes how Covenantz, Inc. (“Covenantz,” “CVTZ,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal data in connection with your visit to kiverify.com (the "Site"), which is the public-facing product website for the KiVerify™ independent verification ecosystem.
The website kiverify.com is the public product website for the KiVerify™ Ecosystem, where visitors may browse product information and review documentation. Registration for the KiVerify™ Ecosystem takes place at ecosystem.kiverify.com. This policy applies to anyone interacting with kiverify.com before they become a registered Ecosystem participant; once registration begins, the KiVerify™ Ecosystem Privacy Policy governs your data.
This policy does not apply to:
- Registered users of the KiVerify™ Ecosystem, whose data is governed by the KiVerify™ Ecosystem Privacy Policy. Once you begin the KiVerify™ Ecosystem registration flow at ecosystem.kiverify.com, the Ecosystem Privacy Policy governs your data.
- Visitors to covenantz.net, whose data is governed by the Covenantz Website Privacy Policy published at covenantz.net/legal/privacy-policy.
- CVTZ employees and contractors, whose data is governed by separate internal policies.
The boundary between this policy and the Ecosystem Privacy Policy is the start of the Ecosystem registration and onboarding flow at ecosystem.kiverify.com. From the point you begin registration, your data as a KiVerify™ Ecosystem user is governed by the Ecosystem Privacy Policy. Any activity on the kiverify.com public website is subject to this policy, whether or not you are a registered KiVerify™ Ecosystem user.
2. Data Controller
For purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), Covenantz, Inc. is the data controller responsible for personal data collected through kiverify.com prior to Ecosystem registration.

3. What Data We Collect and Why
3.1. Data You Provide During Pre-Registration Interest
Before you formally begin the registration process, you may interact with kiverify.com in ways that involve providing personal data, such as submitting a contact or interest form, requesting a demo or product briefing, or downloading documentation. In these interactions, we may collect your name, business email address, company name, job title, and any message content.
3.2. Data Collected Automatically
When you visit kiverify.com, we and our third-party analytics and technology providers automatically collect certain technical data about your device and browsing activity. This may include technical identifiers and browsing information such as your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited on the Site, time spent on pages, and date and time of visit. Analytics configurations are intended to support privacy-preserving analytics practices where implemented and operationally configured.
The KiVerify™ Ecosystem (the authenticated working environment accessed after login) uses only strictly necessary and functional cookies for logged-in users. Analytics cookies on the public-facing pages of kiverify.com are governed by this policy and our Cookie Policy.
4. How We Use Personal Data
We use the personal data collected through kiverify.com for the following purposes:
- Responding to pre-registration inquiries, demo requests, and product interest forms.
- Sending information about the KiVerify™ Ecosystem, product updates, or regulatory developments relevant to prospective users, where you have subscribed or consented.
- Improving the Site, understanding how prospective Ecosystem participants navigate kiverify.com and which content drives Ecosystem engagement.
- Security and fraud prevention, monitoring for malicious traffic, credential stuffing, scraping, and pre-registration abuse.
- Legal compliance, complying with applicable law, regulatory obligations, and lawful requests from authorities.
Once you become a registered KiVerify™ Ecosystem participant, the purposes for which we process your data are governed by the Ecosystem Privacy Policy.
5. Sharing Personal Data
5.1. Service Providers (Sub-Processors)
We share data with third-party service providers who process personal data on our behalf, including analytics providers, cloud hosting providers, CRM platforms, and our Consent Management Platform (CMP) provider. These providers are bound by data processing agreements and may only process data in accordance with our instructions.
See Covenantz / KiVerify Sub-Processor List at trust.delve.co/covenantz/subprocessors.
5.2. Legal Obligations
We may disclose personal data where required by applicable law, court order, or regulatory authority, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Covenantz, its personnel, or others.
5.3. Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of CVTZ's business or assets, visitor and pre-registration data held under this policy may be transferred to the relevant successor entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections.
5.4. No Sale of Personal Data
Covenantz does not intentionally sell, rent, or lease personal data collected through kiverify.com for monetary consideration or for independent third-party marketing purposes. Where analytics or similar third-party technologies are used, certain disclosures or processing activities may be characterized as “sharing” under applicable privacy laws depending on technical configuration, regulatory interpretation, or third-party technology behavior. California residents may exercise applicable privacy rights as described in Section 9.2.
6. International Data Transfers
Covenantz, Inc. is incorporated in the State of Delaware, United States. Personal data collected through kiverify.com may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in the United States or other countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom. As a global product, kiverify.com is specifically designed to serve users across multiple jurisdictions, including the EU/EEA, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Singapore, and other markets.
Where personal data is transferred from the EU/EEA or UK to countries not recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection, where applicable and operationally implemented, Covenantz may rely on transfer safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, contractual commitments from service providers, or other lawful transfer mechanisms recognized under applicable data protection laws.
7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
The public-facing website of kiverify.com (those accessible without logging in) use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the Site. A complete description of all cookies deployed on the public-facing website of kiverify.com, including each cookie's name, purpose, setting party, and duration, is provided in our Cookie Policy, available at kiverify.com/legal/cookies.
We use the following categories of cookies on the public-facing pages of kiverify.com:
- Strictly Necessary - Essential for Site function: session management for the registration flow, security tokens (CSRF protection), and load balancing.
- Functional - Remember language and display preferences for returning visitors.
- Analytics / Performance - Understand how prospective Ecosystem participants navigate and engage with kiverify.com. We use Google Analytics 4 and related analytics technologies to understand engagement with public-facing product documentation and registration workflows.

The authenticated KiVerify™ Ecosystem (the Workspace accessed after login) uses only strictly necessary and functional cookies, session authentication, security (CSRF), and display preferences. It does not place analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies on authenticated Ecosystem users.
You can manage your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of the Site. Specific cookie, consent, analytics, and tracking technology configurations may evolve over time as the Site, applicable legal requirements, vendor technologies, and operational practices change.

- Analytics and technical data: retained in accordance with our analytics provider's data retention settings; typically no more than 14 months at individual session level.
- Security and server logs: retained for up to seven (7) years unless an investigation requires longer retention.
