Personal Data We Receive From Third Parties

Depending on the nature of your access and use of the Platform, we may also receive Personal Data about you from third parties which have legally acquired such information and have the legal right to share it with us.  For example, through social media platforms such as when you elect to register to use the Platform through your relevant account with such social media platforms.  We may also receive data regarding usage information and other related information from third party analytics providers.   

 

How Do We Use and Otherwise Process Your Personal Data?

We may use the Personal Data that you have given us to:

  • Reply to any contact inquiries you have made to us;

We may share your Personal Data with third party processors to whom we have outsourced certain activities from time to time.  Where we do so, we will ensure that such third party processors have in place adequate security standards and measures to protect your Personal Data that are as least as stringent as the ones that the Company uses.  We may also share your Personal Data with third parties for legal reasons, such as where we may need to (i) comply with any valid legal process, government or regulatory authority request, or any applicable law or regulation; (ii) investigate or enforce potential violations of our Terms and Conditions in relation to the Platform; (iii) protect the legal rights, property, and/or safety of us, our users, or other third parties; or (iv) detect and resolve any fraud, security or legal violation concerns.

From time to time, and in order to fulfil the purposes for processing your Personal Data as described in this Privacy Policy or to facilitate your use of the Platform in accordance with its Terms and Conditions, we may transfer your Personal Data to other countries. If and when we do this, we will rely on certain lawful bases to justify such transfer (these lawful bases are further described in the section below).  This may include your consent and our reliance on certain model contractual clauses that set forth privacy protections and security standards.  Some countries where we might transfer your Personal Data may have privacy laws and regulations that are different from (and may be less stringent than), the laws of your home country.

 

What Reasons, or “Lawful Bases”, Do We Rely on for Processing your Personal Data?

There may be different reasons (or “lawful bases”) that we rely on to establish the grounds for Processing your Personal Data.  These may include:

  • Your consent. You are able to remove your consent at any time. You can do this by contacting us through the details set out below.
  • The Processing is necessary to protect public interest, including the public health.
  • Where the Personal Data has already become public through an act or disclosure that you have made.
  • We have a contractual or legal obligation or right that requires the Processing to take place, or the Processing is necessary to perform a contract to which you are a party or which a third party has entered into on your behalf (for example, your employer has entered into an agreement with us for use of the Platform and you are designated as one of the authorized users).
  • We have a legal obligation, or the Processing is needed in connection with legal proceedings or judicial or security-related reasons.
  • We have a vital interest, or we need to Process the Personal Data to perform a public task.
  • The Processing is for archival, scientific, historical or statistical studies in compliance with applicable laws.
  • We have a legitimate interest in conducting the Processing.

Wherever possible and practical, we will endeavour to obtain and rely on your consent as our primary lawful basis for Processing your Personal Data. 

 

How Do We Store and Protect Your Personal Data?

The Company takes the safety and security of your Personal Data seriously.  We will ensure that your Personal Data is securely stored, and that adequate security measures and standards are in place to protect it from unauthorized use or disclosure.

 

How Long Do We Retain Your Personal Data?

We will only retain your Personal Data for the period of time that it is reasonably necessary to fulfil the actual purposes that we collected it for.  So for example, if you register to use the Platform, we will retain the Personal Data you provided for this purpose for at least so long as it is necessary to facilitate your access to and use of the Platform.  When any such purposes come to an end, we will then safely and securely dispose of your information by deleting it from our systems, or for certain information we may retain this in an anonymized format to use for purposes such as the further development of the Platform and training of Platform algorithms.   However, notwithstanding the above, we may be required to retain your Personal Data (or parts thereof) in order to fulfil our obligations in respect of any applicable legal or regulatory requirements about information retention, in which case we will retain your Personal Data in accordance with such requirements. 

 

What Are Your Rights in Relation to the Personal Data We Have About You?

Under applicable data protection laws and regulations, you have certain rights in relation to the Personal Data that we hold about you.  These rights include:

  • Your right of access – this means that you have the right to ask us for copies of the Personal Data that we hold about you.
  • Your right to rectification – this means that you have the right to ask us to correct Personal Data you think is inaccurate or to complete Personal Data that you think is incomplete.
