10. Protection of Personal Data
Personal data is safeguarded using state-of-the-art technical and organizational measures that meet the highest industry standards. These measures are designed to prevent the unlawful or accidental destruction of data, as well as its loss or alteration.
Although we apply the highest standards of care and the best practices for data protection as prescribed by law, it is not possible to guarantee in all circumstances that your personal data will remain entirely error-free. Accordingly, we cannot be held liable for any case in which personal data is disclosed, or sustains damage of an incidental, intangible, or consequential nature. This also includes situations beyond our control, such as disclosures arising from transmission errors, third-party unauthorised access, or any other cause of a similar nature.
If we receive a legally binding request from regulators or other legal authorities, we may be required to disclose your personal data to them. Once shared in compliance with the law, we cannot control how those authorities handle, store, or protect your data.
Anything transmitted over the internet, including personal information, carries some risk of interception and is not one hundred percent secure. The Company cannot guarantee the security of any data transmitted online.
11. Links to Third-Party Websites
On this website, you may encounter links to third-party applications and websites. Please note that these entities are not affiliated with us and are not under our control, and our privacy policy does not apply to them. They maintain their own policies and practices for collecting and processing personal data, and we are not responsible for their activities. Use at your own discretion.
Always review the privacy policy of any company or service when visiting their website before sharing any personal data. Ensure their data collection, use, and processing practices align with your preferences and priorities. Any personal data you choose to share should be provided directly to the service provider.
12. Policy Amendments
We reserve the right to update or modify this policy at any time. We will notify you of any changes via this website and other appropriate channels. The updated privacy policy will be posted on this website, and the revised policy will take effect immediately upon publication unless stated otherwise.
13. Your data protection rights
You have full control and the final say over how your personal data is used, including the right to verify its accuracy, correct errors, and choose to delete or limit the scope and nature of any processing we perform.
On this page, EEA residents will find information relevant to them:
Your personal data is protected under the rights described herein. By sending an email to the address below, you may immediately exercise those rights.
Accessing Your Rights
If the personal data you have provided to us is accurate, you may access it at any time. Any of your personal data that we process is accessible to us and therefore verifiable.
You may request access to your personal data at any time for verification, and we will provide it to you in electronic form. If you ask for additional copies of the data we process, beyond the one initially provided, we may charge a reasonable fee.
Rights granted under applicable law and our Privacy Policy may not encroach upon the rights of others. The company reserves the right to deny or restrict access to personal data if doing so would infringe the rights and freedoms of others.
Right to Rectify Errors
Any inaccuracies in your personal data, whether due to omissions or incorrect details, may be corrected by you or by the Company to ensure it can be processed correctly.
Erasure Rights
You have the right to request deletion of your personal data in the following circumstances: 1) if your data has been processed without your consent or without a valid legal basis; 2) if you ask us to remove your data and the Company has no legal obligation to retain it; 3) if you no longer agree to or accept any processing by us that, while lawful and based on our legitimate interests or those of a third‑party provider, you choose to oppose; and 4) if we are required by law to erase your data.
The right to erasure is overridden and superseded by legal obligations under EU law or the law of any Member State. Likewise, the right does not apply where data is required for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
Right to Restrict Data Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data if you believe it contains inaccuracies.
Upon your request to restrict the use of your personal data, it will be deleted except in the following cases: 1) where the laws of the European Union or any Member State prevent this. 2) With your consent, where it is necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. 3) To protect the rights of another natural person.
Your Right to Data Portability
You have the right to access and review any personal data you have provided if you have consented, in any form, to its collection and the processing is carried out by automated systems.
You have the right to request the transfer of your personal data to another company or organisation, where this is technically feasible. Exercising this right does not affect your right to deletion of your data. We cannot honour such requests if doing so would infringe the rights or freedoms of another natural person.
Right to object to data processing
Notwithstanding the Company’s right to pursue its legitimate interests, or those of a third-party service provider, you have the right to object to the processing and request that it cease. This right does not apply where there is a compelling legal basis to continue processing, such as to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. In such cases, we may continue processing your personal data.
You may, at any time, object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
Right to Withdraw or Refuse Consent
Where possible, you may withdraw your consent to our processing of your personal data at any time with immediate effect. This does not apply retroactively to processing carried out before you withdrew consent.
If you are dissatisfied for any reason, you have the right to lodge a complaint with any legal, regulatory, or other supervisory authority.
If you believe your rights and freedoms have been violated in relation to the processing of your personal data, each European Union Member State has established regulatory and supervisory authorities for this purpose. You may lodge a complaint with these authorities at your discretion.
Section 13 describes circumstances where your personal data rights may be limited under laws of the European Union or its Member States.
After we receive your request concerning your personal data and its processing, we will grant access to the information you requested, as outlined in Section 13 of this policy. We may extend this timeframe by up to two months, depending on the volume of requests and the nature of your inquiry. If an extension is required, we will notify you of the revised deadline within one month of receiving your request.
Any requested information will be provided to you electronically at no cost, unless doing so would contravene the law or the provisions of Section 13. We may charge a reasonable fee or decline a request if it is considered unfounded, excessive, or repetitive.
We reserve the right to request additional proof of identity when there is any reasonable doubt about the individual submitting a personal data request, to protect data and maintain security.
