This Privacy Policy does not apply to personal data that we process on behalf of customers of our business offerings, such as our API (if any). Our use of that data is governed by our Terms of Service covering access to and use of those offerings.
To better enrich your experience, our Service may contain links to other websites not operated or controlled by AIPOCH (including AIPOCH affiliates), including social media services (collectively, “Third-Party Services”). You can choose whether to access such content or links, or whether to use the third party’s products or services. However, we do not have control over the products or services provided by third parties. We cannot control any of your personal data held by third parties. By providing these links we do not imply that we endorse or have reviewed these Third-Party Services. The personal data protection issues in connection with your use of any Third-Party Services are not governed by this Privacy Policy. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit.
If provisions from this Privacy Policy are in conflict with the law, they will be replaced by provisions of the same purport that reflects the original intention of the provision, all this to the extent legally permissible. In that case, the remaining provisions remain applicable unchanged.
Your Rights Relating to Your Personal Data
You are entitled to the following rights:
-
right of access to your personal data;
-
right to data portability (i.e., you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit those data to another controller);
-
right to correction if your personal data is not complete or accurate;
-
right to deletion or restriction of your personal data, as permitted by law;
-
right to object (i.e., objecting to our processing of your personal data) (e.g., in case we process your data for direct marketing purposes), as permitted by law;
-
right to withdraw your consent where we have asked for your consent at any time with future effect and without affecting the lawfulness of processing of your personal data based on the consent you provided before you withdrew it.
The exercise of the above mentioned rights is free of charge and can be carried out by phone or by e-mail via the contact details displayed in the “Contact Us” section. If requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of the repetitive character, we will either charge you a reasonable fee or refuse to comply with the request. We may request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity before we comply with a request from you concerning one of your rights.
We will provide you with information about the follow-up to the request without undue delay and in principle within one month of receipt of the request. Depending on the complexity of the request and on the number of requests, this period can be extended by another two months. We will notify you of such an extension within one month of receipt of the request. The applicable privacy legislation may allow or require us to refuse your request. If we cannot comply with your request, we will inform you of the reasons why, subject to any legal or regulatory restrictions.
These rights are not absolute, they may be limited in some situations. For example, where we can demonstrate that we have a legal requirement to process your data or if making the information available to you would reveal personal data about another person or if we are legally prevented from disclosing such information. In some instances, this may mean that we are able to retain data even if you withdraw your consent.
We hope that we can satisfy any queries you may have about the way we process your data. In the event you still have unresolved concerns, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular to the data protection authority in the country of your habitual residence or place of work.
Marketing
If we are legally required to do so, we will seek your prior consent before providing you with promotional materials or information. You may withdraw your consent at any time (this will not affect the processing of your personal information undertaken until the withdrawal). If you want to stop receiving promotional materials, etc., you can do so at any time by communicating with us.
Data Retention
We will retain your personal data for as long as is necessary to carry out the purposes set out herein. We will also retain your personal data deemed necessary to comply with legal obligations, settle disputes, and enforce agreements.
Where applicable, we will delete your personal data upon your request. We are entitled at all times to delete your personal data without notice. In such case, we owe no compensation to you as result of deletion of the personal data.
If you wish to obtain further information about the retention periods as applied to your personal data, you may contact us via the contact details displayed in the “Contact Us” section.
