We may share your data with our service providers in order to operate our services (e.g. storing data via third-party hosting services, providing technical support, etc.).

 

We may also disclose your information in the following circumstances: (i) to investigate, detect, prevent, or address unlawful activity or other wrongdoing; (ii) to establish or exercise our rights of defense; (iii) to protect our rights, property, or personal safety, or the safety of our users or the public; (iv) in the event of a change of control of us or any of our affiliated companies (by way of a merger, acquisition or purchase of (substantially) all assets, etc.); (v) to collect, hold and/or manage your data using authorized third party service providers (e.g. cloud service providers) as appropriate for business purposes; (vi) to work collaboratively with third parties to improve your user experience. To avoid misunderstandings, we would like to point out that we can transfer or pass on non-personal data to third parties or use them in any other way at our own discretion.

Personal information may be maintained, processed and stored in the United States, Ireland, South Korea, Taiwan, Israel and other jurisdictions to the extent required for the proper provision of our Services and/or by law (as further explained below).

How long is the data retained?

Please note that we retain the information we collect for as long as is necessary to provide our services, comply with our legal and contractual obligations to you, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

We can correct, supplement or delete incorrect or incomplete data at any time at our own discretion.

How do we protect the data?

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we can offer our services to you. Your data may be stored through our hosting provider's data storage, databases and general applications. It stores your data on secure servers behind a firewall, and it offers secure HTTPS access to most areas of its services.

Notwithstanding the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and do not guarantee the absolute privacy or security of any information you upload, post or otherwise disclose to us or others.

For this reason, we would like to ask you to set strong passwords and, if possible, not to transmit to us or others confidential information, the disclosure of which you believe could cause serious or lasting harm to you. In addition, since email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we ask that you do not share any confidential information through any of these communication channels.

  • the use of your personal data is necessary to comply with a relevant legal or regulatory obligation, or

  • the use of your personal information is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided that we do so at all times in a way that is proportionate and respects your privacy rights).

If you are a resident of the EEA, your personal data will only be transferred to locations outside the EEA where we are satisfied that an adequate or comparable level of protection of personal data is in place. We will take appropriate steps to ensure that we have appropriate contractual arrangements in place with our third parties to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to minimize the risk of unlawful use, alteration, destruction, loss or theft of your personal information and that such third parties will act in accordance with applicable laws at all times.
