Legal Bases Upon Which We Rely
For certain purposes it may be appropriate for us to obtain your prior consent. The legal basis of consent is only used by us in relation to processing that is entirely voluntary – it is not used for processing that is necessary or obligatory in any way.
In the event that we rely on your consent, you may at any time withdraw the specific consent you give to our processing as described above. Please note, even if you withdraw consent for us to use your Personal Information for a particular purpose, we may continue to rely on other lawful bases to process your Personal Information for other purposes.
Where we are relying on a basis other than your consent, the lawful basis for processing Personal Information will be one of the following:
- The processing is necessary in order for us to comply with our legal obligations (such as compliance with anti-money laundering legislation);
- The processing is necessary for the performance of a contract you are party to or in order to take steps at your request prior to you entering into a contract;
- The processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; or
- The processing is necessary for the pursuit of our legitimate business interests.
International Transfer Of Personal Information
Your information, including Personal Information, may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”). Certain countries outside the EEA have been approved by the European Commission as providing an adequate protection and therefore no additional safeguards are required to export Personal Information to these countries. In countries which have not been certified as providing an adequate protection, these international transfers are carried out in the framework of Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European Commission.
California Shine The Light
California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as “Shine The Light” law, permits California residents to annually request information regarding the disclosure of your Personal Information (if any) to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year. Requests may be made one time per calendar year. If applicable, this information would include the categories of customer information and the names and addresses of those businesses with which we shared customer information for the immediately prior calendar year (e.g., requests made in 2019 will receive information regarding 2018 sharing activities). You may submit your request using the contact information at the end of this Privacy Policy.
Do Not Track
“Do Not Track” is a privacy preference that you can set in your Internet search browser that sends a signal to a website that you do not want the website operator to track certain browsing information about you. However, because our Website is not configured to detect Do Not Track signals from a user’s computer, we are do not respond to Do Not Track requests. More information about “do not track” is available at www.allaboutdnt.org concerning such information.
We do not track Website users over time and across third-party websites. Third parties, other than our service providers (such as our analytics provider), do not have our permission to track which websites you visited prior to and after visiting our Website.
