You can find an explanation of each of the legal grounds for use of personal information here.

Your Rights

Depending on where you are based, under certain conditions, you may have the right to ask us to:

  1. provide you with further details on how we use and process your personal information;
  2. rectify inaccuracies in the personal information, and complete any incomplete personal information, that we process about you;
  3. delete personal information we no longer have grounds to process; and
  4. restrict how we process your personal information while we consider an inquiry you have raised.
  5. In addition, under certain conditions and depending on where you are based, you have the right to:
  • where processing is based on consent, withdraw the consent;
  • lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
  • object to any processing of personal information that we process on the “legitimate interests” or “public interests” grounds, unless our reasons for the underlying processing outweighs your interests, rights and freedoms;
  • object to direct marketing (including any profiling for such purposes) at any time as set out in the “Marketing messages” section above; and
  • to ask us to transmit the personal data you have provided to us and we still hold about you to a third party electronically.

These rights are subject to certain exemptions to safeguard the public interest (e.g. the prevention or detection of crime) and our interests (e.g. the maintenance of legal privilege) and may not all be available in the country in which you are based. If you have the right to do so, you can exercise these rights by contacting us at the “Contact us” section below.

Information storage, security and transmission of your personal information

Disclosure of information overseas

We may store, process and transmit information in the United States and locations around the world (including those outside your country), and may disclose your information to third parties if we determine that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with the law; (b) protect any person from harm (such as death or serious bodily injury); (c) prevent fraud or abuse of Imagine Communications or our users; or (d) protect Imagine Communications’ rights. In addition, we may share information with third parties as part of our operation and/or offering our services to current and prospective customers. These third parties may include overseas third party service providers, law enforcement agencies and marketing platforms we use, and they are only permitted to access your information to perform tasks on our behalf in compliance with this Privacy Policy or as required by law, and we take steps reasonably necessary to help ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If the ownership of control of all or part of our business changes, we may transfer your information to the new owner. We do not sell your information to advertisers.

Disclosure of information outside the EEA

Where we transfer personal information from inside the European Economic Area (the EEA) to outside the EEA, we may be required to take specific additional measures to safeguard the relevant personal information. Certain countries outside the EEA have been approved by the European Commission as providing essentially equivalent protections to EEA data protection laws and therefore no additional safeguards are required to export personal information to these jurisdictions. In countries that have not had these approvals, we will use appropriate safeguards to protect any personal information from being transferred, such as EU Commission-approved model contractual clauses or binding corporate rules permitted by applicable legal requirements, or obtain your consent. Imagine Communications’ parent entity is based in the United States. The United States model of privacy protection relies on a mix of legislation, governmental regulation, and self-regulation. As of the date of this Privacy Policy, the Council of the European Union has found that the United States’ model does not (outside of the “Privacy Shield Framework”) provide “adequate” privacy protections as contemplated by Article 25 of the European Union’s Data Directive. (Directive 95/46/EC, 1995 O.J. (L 281) 31)

Article 26 of the European Union’s Data Directive allows for transfer of personal data from the European Union to a third country if the individual has unambiguously given his consent to the transfer of personal information, regardless of the third country’s level of protection.

By agreeing to this Policy, you consent to the transfer of all such information to the United States and the processing of that information as described in this Policy.

Please contact us at the details in the “Contact us” section below if you would like to see a copy of the specific safeguards applied to the export of your personal information.

IT Security

We endeavor to take reasonable steps to protect your personal information, but no security system is foolproof and standard internet connections are not secure. We cannot and do not warrant that your personally identifiable information will not be disclosed or accessed by parties other than those authorized under these terms and conditions; however, we maintain commercially reasonably physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your personal information in accordance with data protection legislative requirements. Please always think carefully about keeping your information secure and protecting it from vulnerabilities.

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our websites, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential and for complying with any other security procedures that we notify you of. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

Retention

Our retention periods for personal data are based on business needs and legal requirements. We typically retain information you provide us for as long as we deem necessary for the purpose(s) for which the information was collected, and any other permissible, related purpose. For example, we may retain certain transaction details and correspondence until the time limit for claims arising from the transaction has expired, or to comply with regulatory requirements regarding the retention of such data.

You may have the right to request to have your personal identifiable information changed, updated or deleted as described in the “Your rights” section above, but please note: (1) there might be some latency in deleting this information from our servers and back-up storage; and (2) we may retain this information if necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements. You can communicate your request by contacting us via e-mail at privacy@imaginecommunications.com.
